About: I’ve always grown up around dogs, cats, chickens, ducks, and etc. A dog is more than just an animal, they are a part of the family. Im a dental assistant and love helping people achieve the confidence to smile again. Im 22 years old and still live with my parents so this is a great side hustle to save money to move out eventually. At home we have a basset hound named Maggie that’s three years old, an Australian Shepard named Ranger that is also three years old, a Yorkie Shih Tzu named Trixie that is about 15 years old (yeah I know she’s basically deaf and blind but old girl is still kicking it), and then two cats that we rescued on the side of the road named Stormi & Klondike! I also have chickens & ducks! Let me dogsit your fur baby 🥰 I’m currently working at a private dental office located in Staunton, IL Monday-Thursday. Usually when I dog sit for a family friend or just anyone in general I stay at their house with the dog(s) so they feel comfortable in their own environment. My work hours are as followed; Monday & Thursday: 7-4pm (lunch 12-1pm) Tuesday 8-6pm (lunch 1-2 or 2-3pm) and Wednesday 7-1pm. I am a reliable and a caring person to watch your fur babies! I usually stay at the clients house so the pet is in a familiar environment and won’t get over stimulated. Every dog is different and so I usually meet the clients and/or the dog(s) so they are somewhat familiar with me and aren’t frightened by a stranger while their loved ones are away.

“Catelyn house sat for us and took care of our two fur babies (dog and a cat) with so much love. She was very attentive to their routine and didn’t miss a beat. She sent us daily updates which always warmed our hearts! On out trip back, our flight was canceled and Catelyn was kind enough to drop by and feed the babies and walk our dog. The house was spotless on our return and she cleaned everything she used which was so very sweet of her. Most of all, my temperamental dog was able to bond with her and now has a forever friend!”


“Megan was great, the dogs were happy as can be when we returned and she sent us pictures of how they were doing.”


“Katie did an awesome job with Reuben while we were away for 9 days! She was so great with communication and we could tell he was having so much fun going on walks and to the park with her. We will definitely use her 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 am good with cats, dogs and guinea pigs. I can clean out litter boxes, change bedding for guinea pigs and also have extensive experience in caring for a guinea pig's special needs. I’m currently working Mon-Thurs from 8:15am-4:30pm and Friday from 8:15am-12:30pm and I get an hour lunch! So if you ever need me to check in on your fur babies, I can do that! And I can still stay overnight if needed! I will follow instructions how to care for your animals in your home. This can include baths, walks, potty breaks, play time and feeding times.

About: Hi! My name is Meghan. I have 6 years of experience in caring for over sixteen animals at one time, including cats, dogs, and larger four-legged animals. Care included administering medication, feeding, monitoring the health of all animals, ensuring all animals received adequate daily exercise, and overnight house sitting. I also have experience in caring for dogs and cats of family and friends. I'm currently working part-time so my schedule is fairly flexible. On the days that I work, I am available after either 11:45 or 3:05, depending on whether I work a half day or a full day. My weekend availability will vary depending on my schedule. Prior to providing care for your pet, I feel it is important to meet with you to understand your pet's behavior, needs, and any specific concerns you may have. I will make sure your pet receives plenty of love and affection, play time, and rest time.

About: I’ve had animals in my family my whole life! I have two doggies of my own. Beans and Kona. I have watched a lot of other people’s animals throughout my life.

I’m very responsible and dependable. I am able to watch pets for short or long amounts of time! Pet care is an essential part of my daily routine. Each morning, I feed my pets and take them for a walk. Throughout the week, I schedule playtime and grooming sessions, ensuring they stay healthy and happy. Their well-being adds joy and structure to my day-to-day life. I try to stick to their normal routines! I always feel like dogs have a less stressful time when we stick to the stuff they know. If there is something specific you need, I can accommodate!

“I can’t recommend Ashley enough as a dog sitter! She recently watched my dog, Oliver, while I was away, and I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such caring hands. Ashley took the time to understand Oliver’s routine, quirks, and favorite activities, making sure he felt comfortable and happy. Ashley provided daily updates and adorable photos, so I never felt too far from Oliver. When I returned, he was calm, happy, and clearly well taken care of. If you’re looking for a trustworthy, compassionate dog sitter, I highly recommend Ashley!”
