Cat Sitting McHenry

About: I’ve been around pets since I was a little girl. I have two dogs of my own. My oldest, Whiskey, is four years old and my youngest, Milo, is about a year and a half. Whiskey is very much a couch potato and is highly attached to me. Milo is the complete opposite. He has so much energy and doesn’t understand the meaning of relaxation. With Milo, there’s never a dull moment so trust me when I say I have seen it all. I currently work part-time and go to school so pet care works with my availability as my schedule is always changing. I also love animals of all types and so getting to play with puppies and kittens is a dream come true. I don’t currently offer any overnight sittings but I’m hoping once I build a good reputation on this app that I can offer that soon. I have two dogs that are complete opposites of each other so I have learned what works best for both of my animals. My youngest dog needs a lot of walks, attention, and enrichment. I keep plenty of enrichment toys around my house to ensure that he is getting the proper care that he needs. My older dog is a couch potato and it does not take much to keep him happy, as long as he has food, water, and a comfortable space to lay down he’s good to go.

“We left Aaron with our precious Lucy for 4 nights and we loved the way he knew how to gain Lucy's trust! We may have come by and take Lucy for a walk just so she remembers him. We felt confident with Aaron's dog whisperer skills. We will use him again. Thank you Aaron!”

About: I love animals and would love to help you watch yours if you're out or take them on walks for you! I had a German-Shorthaired Pointer/Labrador mix for 11 years, he passed away recently but brought years of joy and experience with a highly-energetic dog. I recently got my first cat, and I have lived with several other dogs and cats. I do not have any professional experience grooming or dealing with animals, but I am more than willing to help out with letting dogs out, taking them on walks, etc. I definitely have plenty of experience walking dogs because of my little guy. I look forward to hearing from you soon! I currently have quite open availability, almost any day and time should work with some notice, and I will try to make it work regardless. I have a fenced-in yard where a dog can go outside/play fetch. I have 1 cat, but he can be kept in a separate area of the house if preferred.

About: I have the biggest compassion for dogs. I’ve had dogs my whole life, from puppies to dogs. I am well aware on how to handle them, I currently have 3 dogs with 3 different age groups so puppies and elders aren’t a problem to me! I also love to participate in doggy day out of shelters! I currently work part-time which gives me plenty of days off that I would enjoy spending with and caring for animals in case their parents aren't able to! Fur babies tend to feel safer and comfortable in their own homes, I will be sure to be clean and efficient with caring for animals to be sure they have a fun & safe environment and for you to have a neat home!

About: I’ve been around animals since I was young if you also have reptiles, fish, chickens, of course dogs or cats! I can help out! I’m looking for something to fill my weekends, I work full time but could do dog walks/ feeds after work when I get home! I work full time 8-5, get home around 6 I could do night walks or runs on weekdays! And on the weekends I’m open to anything! If your animal is aggressive towards strangers I’d be open to doing an interdiction before hand to make sure your animal and I are acquainted with and to confirm I’m comfortable being alone with them.

“Becca did such a great job stopping in to look after our 2 French Bulldogs. She was very responsive and communicated very well during her visits.”

“Kristen was an excellent sitter! Treated our cats with care, and gave them excellent love and support while we were away. Would hire again! :D”

“Regina was terrific! As a first time user (and somewhat nervous about the whole endeavor) she was very communicative, easy to schedule with, followed all of my instructions and most importantly care for Bodie very well. You can tell she truly loves dogs and pays attention to their needs. Thanks Regina!”

“Once again, Tally is truly the greatest. The amount of care that she puts into caring for the specific needs of the pets is so refreshing and really lets you relax more while being away from your babies. Are you reading these to see if you want to book her? Here’s your answer! Book her!”

Sydney N.

“Amanda did an amazing job taking care of our two dogs. She communicated excellently, and spent quality time with them during the drop-in visit. We will definitely book with Amanda again.”

“Brittany took care of Patches as if she were her own fur baby! Brittany went above and beyond when Patches was struggling due to my extended trip. When I returned home, Patches was very calm and content as a direct result of Brittany's care!”

About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. I was relied on to take care of them with feeding them, walking, bathing them and training them. Etc. I’m currently not working but I am a stay at home mom , So I’m able to have time to play with pets and make sure to do anything necessary to help out, I’m able to house sit, boarding, and foster. We do have a small male dog in the house that we can keep separate from the dogs/cats. I always check fence gates before letting a dog outside. Always lock the doors, and make sure I don't step outside without the key incase I get locked out. Providing pets with food and fresh water. Administering medication to pets according to the instructions provided by pet owners. Cleaning out litter boxes and crates. We do prefer the animal to have a crate we can put them in or we can provide one too.

About: I have years of experience of taking care of animals I’ve owned so many animals my whole life :) I have a beautiful blue nose pitbull named chiquita who is a elder <3 as well as two smaller dogs named Federico and Dutch and a cat! We all love eachother very much. I can also very much pay attention to detail throughout the pets day and changes in schedule and any health issues that need to be addressed. I can keep updates with the owner as needed at anytime I have lots of free time and love going for nature walks and love playtime I can give lots of affection and training if needed :) I have a safe non toxic environment in my backyard with plenty of space and shade provided with extra large crate for resting area. With a safe gated area inside with AC and lots of room for the zumiez :) along with 2 friendly small dogs and a outdoor cat

About: I’ve cared for animals for most of my life and have always been someone friends and family trust with their pets. I’m calm, patient, and attentive, and I take the time to understand each animal’s personality and needs. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, and maintaining routines so pets feel safe and secure while you’re away. Whether a pet is energetic, anxious, or more independent, I adjust my approach to what works best for them. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I aim to provide dependable, gentle care every time. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets consistent attention and care throughout the day. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, and house sitting, and I pride myself on being as reliable and communicative as possible. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and can adjust timing as needed to help them feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I focus on creating a calm, safe, and respectful environment for every pet. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding routines, medications if needed, and any specific preferences your pet has. I’m attentive to behavior and body language, especially with shy or anxious animals, and I always prioritize their comfort and safety. I also respect your home and space, keeping things clean and secure while you’re away. I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands!

About: All my life I’ve had animals . I’ve had everything from Min Pins to Pitties. They rely on us and deserve the best care and environment. I am currently a stay at home mom. I am home all day except to drop off and pick up my child from school. Weekends are usually spent at home relaxing in the backyard. I have a fence in backyard with a doggy door that allows animals to come and go through out the day. I let dogs on the couch to cuddle. 🥰

“Thanks again for watching Gypsy. He was happy when I came home.”

About: Hi, I’m Ethan! I’m 19 and I’m ready to make sure your pets are happy, healthy, and entertained under my care! I have had pets of my own since I was young and love animals. I am most experienced in cat and dog care (all ages), but can care for smaller animals as well! I am always ready and willing to learn your pet’s exact needs and wants in order to fulfill them. Though I have my own pets I am well experienced in taking care of other people’s as well! I have been providing pet and house care services for friends and family since my pre teen years- it’s something I’m passionate about! Thank you for reading and I hope to care for your fur baby soon! :) I just graduated (class of 2025) and am looking forward to making this my part time job during this gap year, and hopefully in the long run! I love animals/pets and helping others, and am ready to dedicate my time to this important work for you and your pets included! I am prepared to learn your pets needs no matter how simple or complex they are- my top concern is your pets happiness and health! I promise any instructions discussed and or left for your pets and home will be followed to a T! This includes pets who are particular about how things are done, such as walks, meal time, Potty breaks, and etc (such as my own pets are- lol!) I understand that being welcomed into somebody’s home and taking care of their fur babies is a privilege.

“Sylvia did an awesome job! We did not worry at all about our pet’s care while we were away! Sylvia sent pictures and let us know how she cared for Daisy daily! She is very prompt to respond to questions or concerns! We will definitely be using Sylvia’s services in the future!”

About: Growing up on the farm, there was no shortage of canines in my life starting very early. Companions, service dogs, working dogs, strays who wandered up and never left, I’ve taken care of almost every shape and size of dog! Starting with the chocolate lab I saved up for from my local rescue at 8 years old, to my most recent geriatric chihuahua, I love them all! I’m an artist with a very flexible schedule looking to fill a need in my community! I can accommodate nearly every shape and size of situation—especially holidays and last minute bookings! As someone with very high standards, I only wish to provide the services that I absolutely expect for my pets! You can always count on me to follow your instructions thoroughly and to the letter; your pet’s healthy and safety and your satisfaction as an owner is of the utmost importance to me!

“Thank you Haley for taking great care of our pets. Thank you for following our instructions & putting us at ease knowing they would be in good care.”
