About: I take the time to understand your pet’s unique personality, routine, and needs to ensure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away.

Adept at providing quality care to a variety of animals in a safe and nurturing environment.

About: I bring a unique blend of patience, attentiveness, and genuine love for animals that helps me quickly build trust with both pets and their people. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality and needs whether that means keeping a playful pup busy or making sure a senior dog feels safe and comfortable. Here’s a bit about my experience: • Puppy care, leash walking, and reinforcing basic commands • Senior dogs, with gentle handling, slower-paced walks, and medication routines • Special needs pets, providing calm, detail-oriented care • Administering medications (oral, topical, and injectable) • Multi-pet households, managing dynamics so everyone gets love and attention I always prioritize communication I’ll send regular updates and photos so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. I truly treat every animal as if they were my own, creating a calm and loving environment while you’re away. I’m planning to transition out of my hourly job and become a full-time sitter while in school. Balancing classes and work can be a lot, but pet care has always been something that brings me joy and helps me decompress. I carefully plan my schedule to make sure I’m fully present and attentive with every pet I care for. Whether it’s early mornings, evenings, or weekends, I’m committed to providing consistent, loving, and reliable care that fits both your pet’s needs and my routine. I focus on creating a calm, safe, and engaging environment that matches each pet’s routine and comfort level. In my home, I keep things clean, pet-proofed, and stocked with toys, cozy spaces, and outdoor access for breaks and playtime. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions closely feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any specific habits or routines. I make sure pets feel secure and loved, whether they’re in familiar surroundings or visiting mine.

“Cat did a fantastic job with the drop in visits. She was punctual, spent some time playing them, and had no issues with our most high maintenance cat’s medication. Most importantly, the cats really seemed to liked her. I would highly recommend her and plan on hiring her again for any future visits.”

About: I have taken care of pets since I was a child. I have predominantly had dogs and cats. I treat all animals with the utmost love and care. I have had pets through full life cycle so I understand the varying needs based on age. I currently work full time but am off Friday through Sunday so looking for people that need weekend help. I would also be a le to do some evenings during the week. I have a fenced yard and work from home so my dogs are well taken care of. I have the ability to watch, play with, walk and feed animals in your home. I would gladly follow any routine and instructions you have.

“Barbora was perfect! She is very sweet and attentive to my 17 year old ckd kitty(Bippy). I was so nervous to leave Bippy but she was in great hands. Barbora made sure her water was clean and full. Followed my cat's peticular feeding instruction. My kitty cat can kind of be a diva if she isn't fed in separate bowls. Barbora understood and fed her accordingly. She kept her litter box clean and replenished with fresh litter. She was patient and kind to my scaredy cat. Through the whole experience I was put at ease that Bippy was well taken care of and I would not hesitate to do this all again. Thank you Barbora for all your help! It is very much appreciated!! You are amazing!”


About: I’ve always loved animals and have a passion for taking care of them. I have an older dog and a cat at home, so I’m used to giving pets lots of love, attention, and the extra care seniors need. I’ll treat your pets like my own and make sure they feel safe and happy while you’re away. I am currently a full time student at Lewis and Clark Community College so I have plenty of time to care for animals on the side! When I’m caring for pets on walks or in your home, I always make sure they feel comfortable and safe. On walks, I’ll go at their pace, make sure they stay hydrated, and give them plenty of time to sniff and explore. In your home, I’ll stick to their normal routine, give them lots of love and attention, and keep things clean and calm so they feel right at home even while you’re away.

About: I have had my own pets since I was a young child. I have taken care of many of my friends, family, neighbors, and church members pets over the years. I love dogs and kitties and believe they deserve to be well taken care of. They depend on us to be good to them and are at our mercy. If they are mistreated they can't say anything. This makes it that much more important to be good to our pets. I am not currently working so I have a lot of free time. I have 6 grown children who are on thier own. Two in college, the rest with their own families. I have one friendly lab mix who loves playmates. A fenced in yard, doggie door, and all hardwood floors so accidents are not tragic! I am within walking distance of our city bike/walking trail for long doggie walks.

About: I have several years experience in animal care. I have worked at two different doggy daycare/boarding facilities and two animal hospitals. I can care for pets that need medications and special instructions. From walking, playing, bathing, and cuddling, I can handle cats/kittens, dogs/puppies and if requested can care for horses as well. Currently have several pets of my own, 7 dogs, 10 cats, 5 horses and 8 ducks. I currently work from home on my own schedule which means I am open anytime throughout the day to stop by for potty breaks, playtime and feedings. I have both dogs and cats of my own and understand how they are more family than pets. I go outside with them during potty breaks and make sure they have all of my attention.

“This was Jenee’s first time sitting for us and everything went great! She gave us super daily updates on each of our kitty boys and even cleaned up a plant they knocked over. We really appreciated her help and professionalism with our little guys and will be happy to ask her to cat-sit again.”


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.

“Amanda is excellent. Not only is her communication top notch but so is the care and attention to detail she had for my cats/my asks (her 1st sitting was for 18 drop ins over 10 days). My pets loved her too, she is clearly an animal lover, they came right to her on the 1st visit. I highly recommend her.”


About: I have been dog sitting and caring for pets since I was 10 years old. I have a huge passion for animals and have been volunteering at my local humane society for the past few years. I have animals of my own and am actually about to add a new puppy to my pet family! I am willing to walk, bathe, and feed your animals and make sure they get the care they need while you’re away! I am actually a full time college student and am looking to give pet care in between my classes during the week. I would be available on T/Th all day. On M/W/F I am available anytime after 12pm to come care for your pets. I am looking to be doing home visits rather than dog boarding because I am currently living in an apartment and do not have the space needed to provide quality care for your pets. I am willing to do drop in visits and in the past am used to doing that type of care for my clients.

About: I have had dogs since I was a kid. I have trained dogs for general obedience, advanced obedience, trick training, and hunting. I also have a bachelors degree in Animal Science. My late personal dog was usually the star of the show anywhere we went because of all of his tricks and obedience. I currently have my own young dog I am training as well as two adult dogs. I love dogs, but I can’t take them ALL home according to my husband...so this is a chance for me to be around and work with many different dogs! Not only would your pet be getting the care and attention they need, but I can also train them while they are in my care. I am okay with getting to know and walking any dog, including reactive and hard to work with dogs. All dogs can be good dogs! I currently work full time in construction, but I am attempting to be able to work with animals full time instead. As of right now I am available most evenings and weekends. I have a large fenced yard. The fence is a 5 rail wood fence that has 6” gaps between boards. However, I always keep a close eye on the animals and do not leave them unsupervised. I have kennels with indoor and outdoor areas. I also have room inside my home for crates. When I am home the dogs would be in the house or in the yard with me as I do farm chores.

About: I’ve had pets since I was born. I take care of several of my friends, neighbors, ext. I walk, let out, and play with pets. I have experience with puppies, kittens, small and large dogs. I would be able to do whatever you need given an early notice. I could make time for your pets, they are my priority during this time. I have a fenced in yard, have plenty of area for them to play. I give them enough food and keep watering them whenever they run out during the hot times.

About: I have a natural instinct of care and admiration for all animals! What sets me apart from other sitters is is the level of care, attention, and genuine love I bring to every animal I look after. I have four pets of my own, 2 dogs (Marley & Thunder) and 2 cats (Bear & Sassy), and I love them with all my heart. I have all the time in the world! I am a college student home for the summer, so I am available any time needed. Any times ranging from 7am-9pm. Depending on the day, I will accommodate to your pets schedule! I would supply for them everything they needed, whether that be food, water, medication, or just simple play time! I would assist in their exercise such as walks/runs, etc.

About: Im 18 years old and from the the Edwardsville area. I have been caring for animals since i was about 4 years old. I am very experienced in animals ranging from dogs and cats to horses and pigs. My grandpa is a retired veterinarian so through the years, he has helped me to learn about animals needs. My availability is very flexible throughout the days and weeks. I am also open to just about any type of animal. I love to stay moving so If walking your pet is needed, I would love to do so. I own a car, that way i can provide reliable transportation as well. Thank you for considering me in your hiring process! If you choose to pick me as a care taker for your pet, you will not regret it!

Addison B.
“When I think of Addie Burton I think of 4 words: BEST pet sitter EVER. Addie will send pictures of your pets throughout the day, make sure they are feeling tons of love, and take them on so many walks throughout the day.

She’s a life long fur momma to dogs and cats and is always meticulous with their care. I’m a first time dog mom and she has watched my pup a few times and she treats him like her own! I was so worried and had so many details for her. And she made sure to listen and calm my nerves and takes care. Would recommend Cindy time and time again! #1 Pet Sitter”

I would definitely recommend Kayla as a dog caregiver!”
