About: Hey there, I’m Danielle, 36, of Belleville. I’m a mother of 6 human children and only 2 fur children right now. That’s really saying something because I’ve always had plenty of animals around me. My family has been on the right side of animal empathy for as long as I can remember. As a family we’ve volunteered and fostered for the local humane society. We’ve found ourselves in the face of wounded and homeless creatures more times than I could count that we’ve taken in graciously and to the best of our ability. These experiences have taught us so much about animal care. My experience also ranges far beyond dogs and cats. I do have experience with many reptiles and mammals as well, caged and uncaged. I am a full Time student and mother. Caring for pets full time fits naturally into the routine. I’m available as much or as little As needed while you’re away. I want to create a similar environment for your pet to their normal routine. Pet parents being away creates an anxiety I would strive to calm in your absence and consistency is important for them. Walks, spending time with them, frequent potty breaks, and feeding routines are something I would want to mimic of your current habits as best as possible. As a home owner myself, I’m aware and experienced with red flags of home security and maintenance. Providing a lifeline to your other most valuable assets left behind can offer a peace of mind while you are away.

“????? Thank you so much for all your help! Super reliable, trustworthy, & friendly! So obvious how much you care about animals and so glad we found you. Not easy finding someone willing to take on injection medication but little man was so calm and happy when I picked him up.. Def have my recommendation! Thank you again!!”


About: Hi there! My name’s Jordan, and animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I currently share my home (and couch!) with 2 energetic dogs and 3 hilarious, personality filled cats. They’re not just pets to me, they’re family. Growing up with animals taught me the importance of patience, playtime, and knowing when a belly rub or a quiet cuddle is exactly what they need. Whether your pet is high-energy and loves fetch or a shy cuddle bug who just wants some company, I take the time to understand their unique personality and needs. I know how nerve wracking it can be to leave your pets in someone else’s care, so I do everything I can to make the experience stress free for both you and them. I treat every animal I care for like one of my own, because I know how much love they bring into our lives. Let’s make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and happy while you’re away! I'm fortunate enough to work from home so i'm always available and easy to contact. I will be 110% devoted to your animals and I will make my schedule fit around your needs. I do not offer boarding because i'm currently living on the Warren Airforce Base BUT, I can assure you that your home, dogs, and belongings will be protected and taken care of.

About: I have had animals my whole life and have taken care of many different breeds of dogs. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets for different periods of time. I have two brown tabbies of my own! I work as an educator at a high school so I am available during the school year after 3pm! I do have a weekend job that I work as well but the times are switched so I’m more available in the day time and not as free in the evenings. I have my own home and live in a quiet town where people regularly walk their animals! I love to get out and about outside so walks are a daily occurrence for me!

About: I've raised animals of all sorts all my life so I am very passionate about giving the best care to any and all types of animals. I have spare time in my weeks to walk, play, pet and cuddle your pet. If you have a schedule set for them then I will keep them on it to the best of my abilities and if no schedule then I can wing it and even make one if you'd prefer. I supervise all outside time not just the walks, I keep a close eye on your pet to make sure no one gets into or out of anything their not supposed to and if you have a door charging pet I can keep them from slipping past and can even help teach them to refrain by request only. I work anywhere from 1-3 times a week which leaves me with a lot of spare time on my hands to help others furry friends. Though I don't offer stays in my home, I will be mindful of yours, if you have specific rules or routines for your pet I will happily uphold them and will always look out for the safety of your pet.

About: I was raised with indoor and outdoor cats and dogs. Worked with dogs and cats of all sizes. House sat for friends and family for many years. Willing to assist or work on any any current training that may be taking place or current needs such as grooming or vet appointments that would need to be conducted. I am currently employed full time from Monday-Friday, times vary.I am willing to stay throughout the week and depart from where ever I may be located. I treat any pet as if it was my own, and follow any guidelines you may have provided after your departure. If any further questions would arise I would contact owner to confirm or get clarification.

About: I've had pets my whole life dogs, cats, Guinea pigs, and fish. I've done pet sitting/ pet check-ins for multiple different familys on several different occasions walking dogs has always been something I like to do whether it be my own dogs or family members or someone else I just really enjoy being around animals. I have 3 dogs of my own 8 in my house, 4 cats of my own, and I work at a doggy daycare during the day! I promise to love your babies as if they were my own and we will have the best time together! Currently I am doing DoorDash and helping care for my Dad, so I can be pretty flexible on scheduling time to spend with your fur babies! I do not offer pet care in my home as all of my pets have varying temperaments and anxiety levels, also my Dad is a disabled veteran and I like to keep stress levels down for him. I would love to take your pups out for a walk or do check ins/house sitting with your babies!
