Cat Sitting in Hazel Green

“Rachel did a great job checking on my cats while I was away. She showed up when she said she would and my typically shy cat even came out to say hi. I'll be happy to rebook her the next time I travel.”

“Stephanie took excellent care of my fur babies and kept me updated and sent pictures at each visit. I know they are in great hands while I’m away!”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life. Family and friends have relied on me to walk and feed their pets. I’ve cared for cats and dogs of all ages! I’m currently working part-time as a cashier. So I would be available most nights and Saturdays. I am always looking forwarded to hanging out with furry friends. I respect all clients homes and you won’t even tell I was there. I care for our furry friend and clean up after them and myself!

“Samantha is AMAZING! She was so good with our high maintenance kitty and followed all of our directions. She even searched all of her hiding spots so she could check on her and send us a pic. Would recommend!!”

“Ashlyn was great with our dog and our son’s dog. She was very accommodating with times to drop in and see our dogs. The dogs were cared for and had fun. She sent lots of photos, which was neat. You can tell she is a true dog person. We recommend her to watch your pup.”

“Chelsea took a great care of our cat while we were on a trip. She also shared lots of photos of our cat during the drop in visits, which we really appreciated. Highly recommend Chelsea!”

About: I have babysat for many family members and friends. I worked at a dog daycare business for 3 years as well! I have tons of experience with just about any breed, and I am always happy to learn something new about taking care of your pet! I’m a current student at IU Bloomington, so I’d love to help out between classes and studying! My schedule is usually pretty open throughout the week. I love going for walks or just hanging out at home with pets, let me know whatever your furry friend needs to have the best time possible!

“Ann provided excellent care to our two cats while we were out of town for 8 days. The updates and photos she sent were very helpful and gave me peace of mind. We will request her service again when we travel.”

About: I have been an independent pet sitter for 18 plus years. I have plenty of experience with cats, dogs and other small critters. I have been very passionate in my love of animals for many years and all of my pets mean the world to me. I have spent time volunteering in shelters for pet care as we as medical care and have spent time working as a vet assistant as well. While working in the vet office I learned how to medicate cats as well as how to give subcutaneous fluids. I have worked in various animal related fields for over a decade including vet offices, shelters, grooming facilities, pet stores and pet sitting. All animals are fascinating to me and I enjoy learning about the different types of care they all need. I live in Galena IL and am willing to cover all surrounding areas 😸 Pet sitting is my main job and my schedule is currently open. I'm looking to build my local client base and earn your trust :) I will care for pets in the clients own home. I will follow the care instructions provided for each pet. During overnight visits I will treat your home with the utmost respect.

“My boyfriend and I went on vacation for a week and booked Heather to take care of our two cats. She was absolutely lovely, sent tons of pictures, communicated promptly, and was very accommodating. If you’re looking for a pet sitter, I strongly recommend booking with Heather!!”

“Meg came to meet our dog for the first time and it was a very successful experience. We are grateful for her flexibility and enthusiasm and we all enjoyed our time with her. We are having Meg come walk Creed while we are away and feel very comfortable with the arrangement. We highly recommend her already!!”

“Natalee V. did a wonderful job of taking care of Huey Lewis! She played with him and made sure he had fresh water and scooped the litter. She also gave him his medications and he did very well while we were on vacation.”

About: Nestled in the quiet countryside, I offer loving, in-home boarding for dogs and cats in a peaceful, natural setting. With plenty of fresh air, daily walks, and attentive care, your pets are treated like family while they’re away from home. Able to care for animals at all stages in their life. I love taking long walks with canine companions! Your dogs will not be unleashed on a walk unless your specify! A client’s cat or dog fits naturally into my daily routine because their care is built around their needs, not a rigid schedule. Each day follows a calm, predictable flow—morning feedings, medications if needed, fresh air, walks or supervised outdoor time for dogs, and quiet check-ins or play for cats—mirroring what they’re used to at home as closely as possible. Throughout the day, I weave in one-on-one attention, enrichment, rest, and observation, so pets aren’t just “fit in,” but thoughtfully included in a rhythm that keeps them comfortable, engaged, and well cared for from morning to night. Tailoring your services starts with seeing each pet as an individual, not a “one-size-fits-all” guest. Begin with a detailed intake or meet-and-greet to learn the pet’s routine, personality, energy level, medical needs, fears, and preferences. From there, you can adjust care in a few key ways: • Routine-based care: Match feeding times, walk schedules, playtime, and sleep habits as closely as possible to what the pet is used to at home. • Personality-aware handling: Offer extra quiet and space for shy or senior pets, more structured play and exercise for high-energy dogs, and gentle, low-stress interactions for anxious animals. • Health-focused support: Follow specific instructions for medications, mobility limits, special diets, or senior care, and keep careful notes so nothing is missed. • Environment choices: Decide whether a pet thrives with social interaction or prefers solo time, indoor lounging, or outdoor exploration in your country setting.

About: I'm an animal lover who has grown up with pets in my life since I was a kid. I grew up in rural Wisconsin so not only did we have the standard cats/dogs around but we also cared for cows and other farm animals. I'm very comfortable with helping your dog/cat take medicine as I have experience giving pills/eyedrops etc to several pets that I've looked after in the past. There's plenty of space for your pet here! We live in a 3 bedroom house with a huge unfinished basement which we use as a 38 foot X 18 foot animal play area which is especially handy on those snowy/rainy days where it's hard to get those high energy dogs outside for a good walk/run. There's also plenty of space in both the front and back yard to allow for pets to run around. The neighborhood is in a low traffic subdivision with lots of pet owners so everybody keeps an eye out for each others pets and walks are quiet and safe as there's no through traffic in the area.

About: Hi! My name is Taylor and I have been around dogs my entire life. I grew up with two Blue Healers, a Yorkie Poo, and a Cavalier. Friends and family have relied on me to care for their furry friends when they are unable to and it’s my favorite past time! I’m currently working overnights as a nurse, however this is only 3 days of my week. My schedule does not look the same each week, but I will make sure to keep it as updated as possible!! Although I live in an apartment building, it is a 2-bedroom and very spacious! I also live near bike paths, the river, and plenty of grassy areas for potty breaks.

“Jenna is great . She did super with our dog and is caring and is wonderful with dogs. Sh helped us on short notice. She went out of her way to accommodate our schedule. Thanks Jenna for all your help with our dog.”
