House Sitting in Johnsburg

About: I’ve had and been around dogs all my life, from free roaming farm dogs to the most spoiled Pomeranians. I’m the guy who has treats and a leash in his car just in case I see a loose dog running around or hear there’s one nearby. I’m the guy who will remember your dog’s name, but probably not yours. I’m the guy pet owners warn that their dog is anxious of people, only to watch their dog sense my immediate love for them. I work as a freelancer, so my availability is mostly wide open outside of some specific appointments and projects that will be noted in my profile. In your home, I will follow any patterns and schedules you request to maintain a consistent experience for your dog. I have three dogs in my home consisting of two puppies and one senior, so I will not be hosting any appointments here at this time.

“Jenna, did a fantastic job. Took a huge weight off my mind. The dogs loved her and she even brought them to the hospital to visit. And when I got home, the place was spotless!!!! Thanks Jenna”

“I have 2 small dogs. I was gone for a long weekend and had her come in 3-4 times a day to let the dogs out, feed them and play with them. Bri was great with the dogs. They liked her from the 1st time she came for a meet and greet. I will defiantly use her again”

“Rowan stayed with our blue heeler in our home for 6 days and was great with her. He was very patient and tolerant of her quirky habits. He took her for walks, car rides, played with her a lot and sent me many pictures. Rowan is very dependable and responds quickly to texts and asks questions if necessary. Thanks Rowan! Loved that you gave Terra your full attention while you were here.”

About: Premium Pet & Flock Care Tailored for Every Life Stage As a trusted and experienced pet care provider, I specialize in personalized sitting services for large-breed pups, cats, and their smaller furry friends — with added expertise in puppy training, compassionate senior pet care, and even backyard flock care for chickens. Your pets are unique, and so is my approach: I take time to understand each animal’s personality, routine, and special needs to ensure they feel secure, loved, and engaged while you’re away. From teaching puppies good manners and basic obedience, to gently caring for older pets who need extra patience and attention, to providing thoughtful care for your feline family members — I deliver professional, reliable care that goes far beyond feeding and walking. And for families with backyard chickens, I bring years of hands-on experience as a seasoned chicken owner. I can provide attentive care for your flock — ensuring they’re fed, their coop is secure, and they stay safe and healthy until you’re home again. 🐾 Puppy Training: I help reinforce basic commands, house-training routines, and leash manners, giving your young pup the best start in life. 🐱 Cat Care: I provide gentle, attentive care for cats of all temperaments, making sure they receive the affection, play, and routine they need to feel safe and content. 🐾 Senior Pet Expertise: I understand the special needs of aging pets — from administering medication and assisting with mobility to creating a calm, stress-free environment for rest and comfort. 🐓 Flock Care: As an experienced chicken owner, I know how to care for backyard hens and ensure they’re well-tended and secure in your absence. 🐾 More Than a Sitter — A True Companion: My services are designed to give you peace of mind and your pets (and chickens!) a trusted friend they can rely on. You’ll return to a happy, healthy, and well-cared-for family every time. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I work from home, which allows me to provide loving, attentive care around the clock. My flexible schedule means I can easily adapt to each pet’s unique needs — whether it’s regular walks, playtime, feeding schedules, or administering medication. Because I’m home throughout the day and night, pets in my care enjoy consistent companionship, plenty of interaction, and a stable, comforting environment that feels like home. I’m able to maintain their familiar routines and give them the one-on-one attention they deserve, so they’re never lonely or stressed while you’re away. Pet care isn’t just part of my routine — it’s at the heart of my everyday life. I care for pets in my home by providing round-the-clock attention in a safe, comfortable, and pet-friendly environment where they feel like part of the family. Pets enjoy plenty of playtime, outdoor exercise (especially for large-breed dogs), and cozy resting spots. I maintain their regular feeding and potty schedules and offer lots of love, enrichment, and companionship throughout the day and night. When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I tailor each visit to their pet’s routine and comfort level. This can include daily walks, fresh food and water, playtime, litter box or yard cleanup, medication administration if needed, and overnight stays for pets who do best in their familiar surroundings. I make sure each pet feels safe, happy, and relaxed — and I keep owners updated with messages and photos for peace of mind. Whether in my home or yours, I treat every animal with the same care and devotion I give my own — because they deserve nothing less.

“Hannah did such a great job with our cat and dog. Our dog tends to be very skittish and afraid, and Hannah knew exactly how to handle him. Thank you Hannah and Rover for taking great care of our beloved pets!❤️”

“Gabriella did such a great job!! She had a challenge with one of our dogs because he was not happy that we left him and he wasn’t being nice! She kept trying different things and she finally got him to come around and be totally comfortable with her! She sent us many pictures while we were gone and both dogs looked like they were having fun! We will definitely call Gabriella again next time we travel!!”

“We had Bryanna stay at our house to watch our puppy for a few days. She did come by to meet us and Luna ahead of time to get to know Luna and her schedule. Bryanna did a great job with our puppy Luna. She communicated back and forth as well so we were able to know how things were going while we were away.”

“We were traveling from out of state and needed a dog sitter at the last minute. Finding Alexis felt like such a blessing. From the moment we met her, we could feel her warmth and genuine love for animals. She has such a kind, easygoing spirit that immediately put us — and our dog — at ease. We trusted her completely with both our pup and our RV, and it gave us such peace of mind. Thank you, Alexis, for being such a beautiful soul and for taking such wonderful care of our baby. We are so grateful our paths crossed, and we’ll absolutely reach out again whenever we’re back in the area!”

About: I have a deep love and understanding of pets coming from a lifetime of pet ownership and a "pet family" background. Having rescues has taught me many things and provided me with experiences working with food aggressive, animal aggressive, malnourished, and unhealthy animals. My dog has recently gone through extensive leg surgery allowing me to learn how to rehab and work with disabled pets. As a pet owner, I know that pets are family and treat them as so. I own a large breed dog so am familiar with working with pets over 100 pounds. I am a teacher which demonstrated my patience and compassion, even in difficult situations. Just as a teacher creates a positive learning environment for children, a calm and supportive atmosphere is created for pets. This patience is important when working with pets, particularly those who are shy, anxious, or have behavioral quirks. I can following instructions and adapt to each pet's routine, ensuring a seamless experience for pets and owners. As a teacher, I am done working by 3 pm allowing for lots of playtime and walks after school. I enjoy getting up early as well. Currently, I am on summer break so I have lots of flexibility. When pet owners leave, I understand the importance of routine and consistency for dogs. I am very good at following directions and can easily adapt my schedule to meet the needs of your pet— whatever that may be!

About: I grew up with dogs and cats my whole life. I grew up with 2 husky mixes and 3 cats in my childhood home and I currently have 1 cattle dog and 2 cats. I also had the pleasure of house sitting for a few families consistently while they were away on vacations. I work early mornings so I have plenty of the daylight to spend time with your dogs! I’m available after 1pm to do daily walks, checks ins, and will have hours available for boarding. I have a fully fenced in yard and a 2 year old cattle dog that loves to make friends and play but also understands boundaries. I have a cat as well but I have a two story house so she can be separated from your dog if need be! I can easily crate your dog if needed as well. I am very flexible and accommodating to whatever your fur baby needs to feel comfortable and safe.

“Kyndall took care of my dog while I was away for a week. She made sure he got his medications daily, fed, and exercised. She sent me updates each time she was at the house, including photos and concerns when Charlie wasn’t eating much. She even took care of two of my high maintenance plants. :) Kyndall also made sure my dog was taken care of while she had a family emergency and couldn’t get to the house. Communication was perfect all week and it was nice to come back to everything the way I left it. I appreciate the honesty, communication, and problem solving. It was very clear she sincerely cares about animals and I will definitely continue to use Kyndall in the future. Thank you so much!”

“We were leaving our cat and home for over 2weeks. After meeting Jessica we felt pretty good about hiring her. Every day she communicated with pictures and updates which put us at ease. What we didn’t expect was her extraordinary care for both our cat and home! We had a late arrival home to a cleaned house , happy cat, fresh bedding and flowers! We will certainly ask for Jessica’s help any time we leave home again.”

Jody S.

“Rachel was amazing. Great communication throughout the whole process. We hesitate leaving our sweet, old boy alone but had no qualms after meeting Rachel. Would recommend her to anyone!”

I do not have a problem with the pet being free roaming throughout the apartment while I am there, but I can use a crate if thats what the owner is more comfortable with. While taking the pet outside, I will always put them on a leash because I do not have a fenced in yard. I am pretty flexible with how the owner wants the pet to be cared for, as long as that is communicated in advance.
