Pet care experience

Snuggles and Cuddles

I am looking for fur babies that require a lot of attention and love. Recently we had to kennel out 2 dogs and while it worked out okay, I quickly realized there is a need for in home care. I am excited to start my pet sitting services and hope to make it my life's work. I provide long walks, belly rubs, medication administration and snuggles. I can provide services in my home or yours. There is nothing like the love and devotion that a pet provides and I look forward to opening my heart and home to your best friend. I have lived in Galesburg for the past 20 years and have a deep commitment to the community. I look forward to meeting you.

BJ is the most loving, caring sitter you could ever want! I was so stressed to leave our girl for two weeks but she was in good hands. The photo updates and messages were a daily highlight. We could see how much fun our pup was having and how much care and attention she was getting. We were afraid that she wouldn’t want to come home! Five stars isn’t a high enough rating—it should go to eleven!

Amazing dog care! First time using the Rover service and wasn't disappointed! If I need any future sitting needs, I won't hesitate to reschedule!
