Pet Sitting in Marengo

“Molly was wonderful! She did more than I expected when caring for our pets, and I could tell she genuinely enjoyed it. She set my mind at ease while I was away. She took and sent cute pix every day, nice bonus.”

Annmarie H.

“Anna is my go-to for animal care drop ins. She is so great at forming a bond with my cat. Athena loves her!! Always so communicative and it shows that she has a passion for animals.”

Stephanie R.

“Harper didn't warm up to her, but that's because of him not Ashton. He's only ever warned up to one other person. She was very respectful of his space and comfort level and sent pics from every visit. Highly recommend and will definitely use her services again.”

“Lillian has been our drop-in sitter for a week and a half now and I could not be happier. Her attentiveness, compassion and communication is top notch, to say the least. I'm so glad I found her on here.”

Terri S.

“Christine was very kind and responsive and sent pictures during her drop-in. She cleaned up a little mess one of our babies made and even left some homemade dog treats. Great first experience with Rover, thank you!”

About: Hi, I’m Taya! I’ve had dogs my entire life and have always had a deep passion for animals. My goal is to make sure every pet in my care enjoys the highest quality of life. My husband, Matt, and I currently have five dogs and a cat of our own, so our home is always full of love and wagging tails! I have years of experience dog sitting a wide variety of breeds and ages, and I treat every dog like they’re part of the family. I’m always happy to send photo updates during your pet’s stay, so you can see just how much fun they’re having. You can rest easy knowing they’re in great hands while you’re away! I’m available every day of the week to care for your pet! While I do work full-time remotely, I’m able to give your dog plenty of attention and let them out for play and potty breaks several times throughout the day. I’m always just a message away if you have any questions or concerns during your pet’s stay, and I’ll respond as quickly as possible. We have just under an acre of land with a fully fenced-in yard for your dog to run and play! Our fencing is a combination of 4 foot and 6 foot welded wire. We’ve had no issues with our own dogs, however, if you’re concerned about your dog possibly jumping or climbing, we also have 100 foot long leashes available so they can still safely enjoy the yard. Please let me know if this is a concern for your pup - we’re happy to accommodate! In order to keep all our pets healthy, we ask that your dogs please be up to date on their vaccinations prior to their stay. Our five dogs have a variety of personalities and temperaments, so we use our discretion to determine which of them, if any, will interact with your dog. This decision is based on factors like age, gender, size, and play style. For this reason, your dog will typically only interact with one or two of our dogs, and all interactions are closely supervised to ensure everyone’s safety. If you’d prefer your dog not interact with our personal dogs at all, that’s absolutely okay too! Just let me know ahead of time so I can plan accordingly. At night, dogs are usually crated for bedtime. If there’s ever a time where I need to leave the house during your dog’s stay, they will be safely crated and I’ll have a camera set up so I can check on them regularly. Every stay includes plenty of playtime, exercise, and snuggles to ensure your pet returns home happy, healthy, and fully loved! Please feel free to message me with any questions at any time! 😊

About: Dogs and cats and lizards, oh my! I’ve done it all. For the first 18 years of my life I’ve had experience walking dogs, house sitting, and raising my own pets. Then I began working at a summer camp where I was partially responsible for taking care of our reptile family - crested geckos, bearded dragons, and ball pythons and were just some of the cuties I got to take care of. Since then I have taken care and owned cats, dogs, and lizards of my own and on the side have house sat and loved many family and friends pets while they’re gone. I even have experience with some medical administration such as insulin shots to a feisty cat and pills to the dog I currently own. I can’t wait to get acquainted with your family member :) My schedule is very flexible and I can accommodate most any time a pet needs taken care of, including during the work day and weekends. I have three dogs, one cat and a crested gecko currently who are all very loved and spoiled by myself, my husband and our almost two year old. We’ve taught all the dogs recall, leash training and how to be gentle around young children. Our cat is an old man with feline herpes, one of our dogs needs daily oral medication and the juvenile gecko gets extra attention as he continues growing.

“She was great with my baby, Bella. Showed up on time and was very kind and sweet. I will definitely be using Ashley again.”

My backyard is 100% fenced . I have the ability to leash or walk your dog for its outside needs if that’s what you prefer. I have a medical background for 45 years so I can administer medications of all kinds. I am retired so I am home 99% of the time so I would be available for your pets needs.

About: For over 30 years, I've had the joy of caring for cats and dogs of all ages and sizes. Growing up surrounded by these wonderful companions taught me just how special the bond between a pet and their person is. Today, I’m honored to help others by providing their pets with the same love, attention, and care they’re used to at home. You can count on me to be reliable, trustworthy, and to treat your furry family member like my own! Now enjoying retirement, I am fortunate to have the time and flexibility to dedicate my days to caring for pets who bring so much love and joy into our lives. When caring for pets in their own home, I treat the space and routines with the utmost respect. I make sure your pet(s) feel safe and cared for by sticking closely to their normal schedule and providing plenty of affection, exercise, and companionship. Whether it’s feeding, walking, medication, or just quiet time, I tailor each visit to your pet’s needs and personality. I am also happy to share photo and video updates so you can stay connected with your fur babies.

“Tina was great. Price is very reasonable and it was nice to have a responsible adult monitoring vs. a neighbor kid. There were a couple small events and Tina was proactive and took care of things. Extremely happy.”

About: I grew up around pets. I am very active & can be energetic with your pet. I can play & run (if needed). I love to be around and to spend time with animals. I am very aware of how to take care of an animal. I can spend a good bit of time taking care of them as long as it fits into my schedule! I am flexible with my visits and can come multiple times a day if my schedule doesn’t conflict that day. I work full time, but I have flexibility with having to be in the office so I am able to work with most pet schedules. I also don’t work on the weekends and am usually in town. I can play with pets for hours or just be there to make sure they’re taken care of if they’re more of a shy and/or lazy breed.

“Karen did a terrific job doing a drop-in visit on our Bernedoodle while my wife and I did a day trip to Chicago. Karen checked in with us and sent a photo of our dog while she was taking him for a walk. Thank you Karen!”

“Dawn was absolutely amazing!! When my dogs were loose she came right over and helped get them back in! I will definitely use her again for my dogs!!”
