Pet care experience
I enjoy walking, tending to, playing with, feeding and anything helpful towards your pets. Coworkers have me watch their pets/house while away on vacation or gone for the weekend.
Reviews
What a wonderful experience we had with Sheila for our two week trip to India. We had always had family take care of our animals, so it was a first for us to use a a live-in service. Sheila was proactive and timely with communications before, during and after our trip. She asked all the right questions- the ones that let you know she is thinking of the important details. She adapted to our animals specific needs, like our chihuahua that likes to sleep close at night. Sheila learned about goat care quickly and sent fun pictures of her time with them. Her photo and text updates were so nice and made me feel so at ease. She wasn’t afraid to ask questions, or bring up a concern that might help make her stay easier for the animals and herself. Sheila is the kind of person who will figure out, what needs to be figured out! We came back to a home that was cleaner than when we left, and our animals felt peaceful and happy. I would highly recommend Shelia!
Sheila is THE BEST! She has house and pet sat for us many times. We love having her take care of our fur babies and they love her too. She goes above and beyond to make sure they have nice long walks, wiggles on the coach, or whatever it is that they need. We love when she sends cute pictures of them while we are away. She always keeps things organized and perfectly taken care of.
Sheila is a wonderful person and a great pet sitter. She has house sat for us as well as just taken care of our two dogs. She often will text us pics or short videos of out fur-babies which always puts at ease while away for a long weekend of week long vacation. Sheila has also been quick to respond to messages. We have found Sheila to be responsible, reliable and trustworthy. She is a great choice for minding your pet(s).
Sheila has stayed at our house many times and always takes great care of the dogs as well as our home. One of our dogs is an elderly lab who requires patience and a little help getting in and out of the house, and Sheila has had absolutely no problem caring for her. Our other dog is a "challenging" corgi/terrier mix who is very territorial and also requires patience getting to know. She's handled him wonderfully as well! She always leaves the house cleaner than when she arrived! Extremely responsible and communicative. My only hesitation in writing this review is that I want to keep her all to myself! She's a gem.

I have experience with crating dogs or letting them roam the house while I’m away at work. I will make sure they have plenty of water while I’m at work and are fed and let out prior to me leaving and when I get home.
Information Sheila M. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog or cat has any special needs I can account for. Knowing these things ahead of time will help me better care for your pet while you are away. Such as; does not do good with other dogs, is a runner (so double check the gate and doors), needs medication at meal times, etc.
A typical day
I love being outdoors! Any chance to get some fresh air is right up my alley. I enjoy walking, running, & biking. Being out in nature is probably one of my favorite things to do and of course spending that with your dog is a bonus!

I am a full time greenhouse worker at a nursery & garden center in Saint Charles. I enjoy keeping myself busy. I hope to be able to care for your pets weather it’s walking them, watching them for a few days or stopping by to feed and let them out.
