I cannot say enough good things about our experience using Heidi and would recommend using her in the future.”


About: Hello, Furbaby Parents!!! I love and treat my furbabies like human babies...and, to me, they are. A baby is a baby. They need love, nourishment, direction, and laughter and that is what your baby will get while at our home. 🐈🐕😍 I try to only keep 1 dog at a time, in addition to our 2. I find it helps ease any new pup's anxiety if only 1 new personality is added at a time...to our melting pot of permanent characters. Lol I know that it is difficult to leave your pet with someone new but I can promise you that they will be loved, cared for and treated with the utmost respect. And they will not be kept in a kennel unless specified by you! Our home will be their new vacation spot. I hope they love to play with cats! 🐈 All rates are negotiable depending upon the situation or circumstance. I'm here to help!! I am currently taking time off to stay at home so I have plenty of time to care for your pet. I am available 7 days a week, anytime of day or night. I have a yard and 2 friendly pups to play with your baby. I also have kitties to keep your pup entertained. Nothing but excitement over here!

“I’ve booked with Grayson several times for house sitting and she’s truly amazing. The girls absolutely love her and she is incredibly responsive, always sends pictures, and plays with the babies. I couldn’t have asked for anyone better to take care of the girls while we’re gone. It makes me happy to know that they’re happy and comfortable with her and that they’re getting TONS of love. 10/10 recommend we’re really going to miss her.”


About: I have years of experience caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs who need a little extra care. I understand the unique needs that come with each stage of a dog’s life whether it’s playtime and training for young pups or gentle walks, medications, and comfort for older dogs. I’m patient, attentive, and always focused on creating a safe, loving environment where every dog feels secure and happy. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority, and I care for them as if they were my own. My schedule is completely open, allowing me to offer full-time, flexible pet care. I’m available weekdays, weekends, and even holidays whenever your pet needs me most! I have a small unfenced yard and live in a gated community with plenty of grass. I also am a 5 minute drive from Girard Park which we can frequently visit!

About: With 7+ years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and farm animals, I offer reliable and loving care tailored to each pet. Being around animals is truly therapeutic for me as I pursue my MBA— it’s my outlet to de-stress. Known as the “dog whisperer” by friends and family, I’m committed to providing personalized care with overnight stays, check-ins, and walks! I currently work part-time and have night classes 3x per week. I am typically free all day Thursdays- Sundays. That being said, I have long gaps between class and work Monday- Wednesday and will be able to check on your pets these days as well. My love for animals keeps me grounded during busy weeks! My top priority is ensuring your pets feel comfortable and safe in their own environment. I prioritize clear communication with pet owners to understand routines, preferences, and any special instructions. Whether it’s maintaining a consistent feeding schedule, offering playtime, or giving them extra attention, I aim to create a positive, stress-free experience in their home.

About: I've loved animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up in a home that rescued and fostered animals of all kinds and still assist my parents with their rescues and fosters. This has given me tons of experience with many different pets. I have experience with animals of all ages; I've helped to raise orphaned puppies and kittens more times than I could even count! I love to cuddle up with cats and relax with them, but I also love taking dogs for walks around the park! I currently pet sit on an infrequent, as needed basis for a handful of friends and family members but would love to expand on that and spend more of my free time with your furry, or not-so-furry, friends! I work from home and have a very flexible schedule! I am able to work from anywhere, provided I have internet access and I can take time away from my computer as needed. I treat all pets as if they were my own and love spending time with them. I think it’s important to adhere to a pet owner’s rules and I value routine and structure, so I’m always hopeful that includes couch/bed cuddles.

About: I have experience dog sitting for a week at a time. I can bring them on walks, give them medicine, play, feed, and spend time. Tuesday and Thursday are “off” days for me, so I’m available on here! Otherwise, I’m available after 3-5 M,W,F,S. Sundays I’m unavailable for animal sitting. If fenced yard is available, I let them roam under supervision. If not, I can walk them/take them to a park for some healthy exercise!

Devan F.
“Over a span of 3 years, Devan took care of our cat and dog when we were out of town. She was relaible and enthusiastic. She frequently sent us pictures of the animals. With much patience, she managed to win over our very shy cat. The cat even started sitting on her lap, a behavior usually reserved for family members. We never worried when Devan was caring for the animals. We knew they were in good hands.”

Judson G.
“Jud is seriously the best. I had to leave town for a few days and was super nervous about leaving my dog, Scotty, with someone new. But Jud totally came through. He took amazing care of Scotty—fed him on time, made sure he got his walks, and even sent me pics and updates so I wouldn’t stress. When I got back, Scotty was happy, chill, and honestly looked like he’d been on a little vacation of his own. You can tell Jud actually loves animals and knows what he’s doing. If you’re a student or just need someone trustworthy to watch your pet, I 100% recommend Jud.”
