Dog Sitting Johnsburg

“I have a medically fragile senior cat who requires injectable medication. Diane was professional, easy to deal with and listened to instructions. She gave exceptional care to my cat and sent detailed updates. I will be booking her again and would recommend her to others!”

About: Some dogs need more than a sitter—they need someone who understands their fire. I specialize in caring for the bold, the stubborn, and the wonderfully rebellious (likely referred to as reactive) pups that others often turn away. With a training style rooted in positive reinforcement (yes, plenty of treats), I help even the toughest personalities feel safe, understood, and engaged. I avoid labeling dogs as “reactive,” even though it’s become the norm—I prefer positive terms like high‑drive that honor their energy and potential. From high‑drive Malinois and German Shepherds to clever Australian Shepherds, spirited Corgis, and the gentle giants like Mastiffs and Cane Corsos, these dogs aren’t just clients—they’re my best friends. Here, every dog gets the patience they deserve, the structure they crave, and a companion who truly gets them. Pet care is woven into my everyday life. I work part‑time in a dog kennel, so caring for dogs isn’t just a job—it’s truly my passion. I dedicate three full days each week to dog sitting, and I’m also available most weekday evenings. Spending my time with dogs, especially the rebellious and high‑drive ones, is simply part of who I am. When I care for pets, the dog’s needs always come first. I follow their routine, provide structure, and make sure they feel safe, understood, and engaged. I also take plenty of photos and videos of our playtime and daily activities, sharing them with the dog parents so they can relax and enjoy their time away knowing their pup is happy and well cared for.

About: I've been around dogs since I've had a working memory. From friend's, family's, neighbor's to my own I've watched and cared for many different dogs of many different sizes and needs. Dogs are a joy and a privilege to care for and deserve the best. I've worked with pups to pops and enjoy both :) I currently work part time in the mornings. Whether your pet/s need to be fed/let out, walked or just needs company I know I'll find time to give them the attention and care they deserve. If I'm pet sitting, I'm able to stay in you're home and give your pets all the attention they could dream of. Chill, lazy dog? Nothing like relaxing outside or watching TV getting pets and cuddles. Adventurous hounds? Lots of walks and play. I tailor the pet care your fur babies need to fit their lives and personalities. I work 1:1 with pet families so that your pets get all of my attention.

“Jessica saved me by being able to look in on our boys on a really short notice. Thank you Jessica! Communication was great and she let us know each time when she was on her way to check in on the dogs. Shortly after that she sent us pictures of them each time. It was a comfort knowing that Jessica was taking such good care of them while we were away. I will definitely use Jessica again in the future.”

About: I've been caring for pets for most of my life and truly enjoy getting to know each animal's unique personality. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, and a variety of other animals, and I'm comfortable adapting to each pet's individual needs and routine. I'm experienced in administering medications, preparing special diets, and providing attentive care for pets with specific health or dietary needs. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or extra patience, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away. My goal is to give you peace of mind and make your pet's time with me as happy and stress-free as possible. I work full-time at a public library, but I love spending my free time caring for pets! 🐾 Before and after work, your pet will have my full attention, with plenty of love, playtime, walks, or cuddles—whatever makes them happiest. During the week, I'm an especially great match for cats and for independent dogs who are comfortable relaxing at home while I'm at work or who have safe, secure access to a yard or indoor potty area. On my weekends off, I have much more flexibility and can devote even more time to your pet. I work at a local public library full time. I am able to check on pets in the AM and PM. On the weekends I have more time throughout the full day. One of my core values is to leave a place better than I found it, if possible. So I clean, keep things organized, and make sure to keep the client’s home nice while I am there.

“What a wonderful help! We appreciate it very much.”

“Christine has been a favorite Rover representative for us. We are a repeat customer of hers and will continue to call upon her care whenever able. Her sincere concern and care of our shar pei, Tricksy, has been of great relief to us. Christine’s communication is consistent and informative. We feel confident in leaving our unique 10-year puppy with her every time and can recommend her (with enthusiasm) to others.”

“Couldn't be more happy with Masha. She's always on time and not afraid of my big girls.”

About: I have worked professionally in the dog care industry for 3 years as a Doggy Daycare Attendant and Professional Dog Bather. During that time, I have cultivated skills that include puppy and senior canine care, administering topical and oral medications, and assisting physically disabled pets. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I am happy to tailor my care to the specific requirements a pet parent has described. I am available 9 am-6 pm, Tuesday through Saturday, every week for drop-in visits, walks, and playtimes. My schedule will be updated if and when my responsibilities change. I am happy to follow specific instructions in your home and on your property when taking care of your pet. Please let me know if you'd like shoes removed at the door, rooms to remain unaccessed, where you would like pets kept once I leave the premises, and any other important details about your home and pet.

About: I’ve been working at a dog daycare + boarding facility for almost a year. I’m familiar with different dog breeds, ages, and energies. I'm a dog lover and want to ensure your pups are healthy and happy. I’m available for dog walking. All day Sunday, Monday, and Wednesday morning is my availability. I can be more lenient with at least a two week notice. I can walk your dog(s) in your neighborhood or around town. I will clean up after them and can give them food if needed. I have reliable transportation and am able to transport dogs if needed!

About: I've had dogs my entire life and have cared for them through every stage, from energetic puppies to senior dogs. I currently care for two dogs of my own, so I'm very familiar with daily routines including feeding, walks, playtime, administering basic care, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and needs, and I enjoy getting to know each one. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to provide dependable pet care throughout the week. I'm available for dog walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and many weekends. I'll do my best to accommodate your pet's routine and can provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away. When caring for pets in a client's home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal as possible. I carefully follow all feeding, walking, medication (if needed), and exercise instructions, and I make sure they have plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I also keep the home clean and respect it as if it were my own. I'll provide regular updates and photos so you can see how your pet is doing and have peace of mind while you're away. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their familiar environment.

About: I bring positive energy, patience, and lots of love to every dog I care for. I work with dogs of all ages and focus on creating a stress-free, fun, and comforting experience through play, cuddles, walks, and attentive care. I take time to learn each dog's personality and needs so they feel safe, happy, and loved-- and I keep owners connected with updates and photos so they know their pup is in great hands. I am home from work for the summer. I am a full-time elementary school teacher during the school year, so I am very flexible and can make my own schedule. I am able to accommodate a variety of needs/ requests. I have a fully fenced backyard, and a senior female dog who is super social with other dogs and people. I will work with you to ensure your dog's needs are met and his/ her schedule remains the same as in their permanent home.

“Bill was great with our two dogs. Thor loved his walk in the neighborhood. Bill is attentive to their needs, professional and flexible. Thanks Bill@”

“If you want someone that is going to love on your pup as if they are your own, then Haylee is absolutely the sitter for you. My dog is intense and intimidating when first meeting new people. Haylee took it all in stride, confidently handling his barking and giving him exactly what he needed to let his guard down. She spent as much time as he needed at the check-ins. I cannot recommend Haylee enough! She gives me peace of mind knowing that my pup is incredibly well cared for, whether I'm gone for an extra long work day or a multi-day trip.”

“Morgan was amazing with our golden retriever puppy! She always provided updates of the drop ins and included pictures. She was excellent with communication and was always on time! We would highly recommend Morgan to check in or watch your dog.”

I've sat for as many as 5 dogs at once. I have cared for animals that needed daily medications. I have sat for senior dogs and have a greal deal of puppy care knowledge.
