“Emily took excellent care of Stella Rose during our vacation. It was comforting knowing she was in her home and not in a kennel. Thanks Emily”


“I cannot say enough good things about Tawny! She went above and beyond while caring for my dogs and home. Taking care of multiple large-breed dogs is no small task, but she handled everything with professionalism, patience, and so much love. My dogs were happy, well-cared for, and clearly comfortable with her. Not only did she ensure their routines were followed perfectly—including feeding, exercise, and playtime—but she also took the time to give them the extra attention and affection they need. She kept me updated with messages, pictures, and videos, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. On top of caring for my dogs, Tawny also looked after my home as if it were her own. Everything was spotless when I returned, and I could tell she had gone the extra mile to keep things in order. If you’re looking for a responsible, kind, and truly dedicated pet sitter, I wholeheartedly recommend Tawny. She is a gem, and I will absolutely be booking her again in the future!”


“Gloria has now watched our baby twice, and we will be using her again in the future. Our pup is our first baby and so I’m glad we found someone we could trust to watch him while we are away. Gloria provides updates throughout the day which gives me peace of mind knowing Philly is well taken care of. We have had her stay in our home both times to keep him in his environment to lessen the anxiety of us being away and she’s treated our home like it’s her own and leaves it just how it was when she arrived! I highly recommend booking her if you are looking for someone who will treat your animals like her own.”


“Harper is a great person and sitter! She took great care of our girl and our home. We came home to a happy dog and clean house, thanks Harper!”

I can take pets out for the bathroom on a long walk or in the yard with a poop bag. I am very adaptable depending on the locatIon and take instructions well!

“Beth Ann is fantastic!! We will definitely be using her services again. The pups were very well taken care of. She made us feel completely at ease during our trip.

About: I don’t remember a time in my life when i didn’t have a pet and i’ve always been so natural at caring for and loving them. Rescue animals are my suit so training is a skill i have required I currently work a part time job and attend college however that only takes up my day until about 1 PM on weekdays, so i have a lot of time to work around that set schedule to care for your pets! i can cater to any needs of your fur baby such as walking, letting out, crating, or anything else (in addition to having fun) i have a lot of experience.

“Savannah watched our 2 pups at our hotel so we could be responsible guests and have a piece of mind knowing they were in excellent care while we hiked in the park.

About: I've grown up with a yorkie (family dog). Within the last year I adopted a dog of my own. He's a black lab/australian shepherd mix who has become my best friend. He's unfortunately living with my parents for the summer which is why I'm hoping to hangout with some furry friends! I'm currently in Peoria to train and play soccer! I'm hoping to start a part-time job soon, but I'd love to hangout with some pets and help out some owners in the meantime! I cannot care for pets at my apartment because it does not allow pets, but I am open to other options! I love going on walks and staying active!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was a kid. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe and love their pets as my own. Currently I am working remotely so my schedule is pretty open! I love a days notice but I also understand life happens and last minute emergencies pop up! Feel free to message me whenever :) I should be a stay at home fur baby mom. I will take care of your animal as if it’s my own. I will send pictures and updates to you if wanted

“I cannot say enough good things about Katie, she watched my three dogs for over a week and treated them like her own. She was thoughtful, kind, and loving. She asked if I wanted photo updates and sent them daily, she’s incredibly honest and I felt so comfortable leaving my dogs with her. Highly highly recommend Katie to anyone.”


About: Animal care is the focus of my professional life as well as my personal life. I’ve been caring for, training, and loving dogs and horses since I was a boy. I believe only in positive reinforcement and patience. Animals WANT to please their owners. They just need to be taught how. I’m available weekdays and can make almost any time work to fit your schedule! I’m available weekends, but the schedule is a little tighter for child care reasons. For walks, I like to take dogs to undisturbed stretches of land or trails to hone their leash training and stamina. When training a dog commands, I use my own property which is void of distractions.

About: Hi! My name is Jane, and I am a life-long dog lover. Over the years I have had the joy of sharing my home with dogs who became a part of my family. I've also had the pleasure of getting to know dogs through sitting that came to feel like part of the family too. I have professional experience with many breeds and recognize that every dog is an individual who has a distinct personality. I have an active lifestyle, and a flexible schedule that will ensure plenty of time to engage with your fur babies while you are away. I appreciate the importance of building a trusting relationship with you and your pets so that you can have peace of mind during your time away from home. You can feel confident that I will care for your babies as if they were my own. I have a very flexible schedule which allows me to make your fur baby a priority while in my care. I have availability both weekdays and weekends and holidays. I live in a quiet, safe neighborhood in town with a nice yard. I aim to make your fur baby’s visit as fun and stress free as possible.
