About: I have been dog training for 12 years. I have trained a variety of dogs. I spent 10 years training with 4-H. I trained one of my dogs to be a therapy dogs for others and another one for Search and Rescue. I have experience working with cats and dogs. I used to pet sit for several people. For three years I worked at Canine Country Club, a facility that boards cats and dogs. I’m currently on summer break! This fall I start my internship as a mental health counselor which is only 2 days a week. I am available most days and nights! For my clients and my household I take care of dogs by feeding, letting them outside, going for walks, basic grooming including brushing, training. I train obedience, rally, and agility.

“Kara is the best! My pup adored her from the very second they first met. She is organized and immediately picks up on all of the little details about your dog’s needs or routine so you can fully relax knowing they are well cared for. She will keep you updated with the sweetest updates and photos every step of the way. I cannot recommend her enough!”

About: I've worked at Tendercare Animal Hospital for 4 years as kennel lead. Taking care of the dogs and cats in boarding. Making sure they are well taken care of while you're away! I work at Tendercare Animal Hospital in Morton i have a flexible schedule and can work with you for your needs. I do work 30 hours a week but hoping to make this a job for me. I have a vehicle for transportation as well as 4 years hands on experience at work. I can give medications as well and feeding and taking out for potty.

About: I used to work at central illinois small animal rescue. I gave the animals medicine and cleaned their cages and bedding. I worked there for two years and then i left for an internship at a zoo. I have been animal sitting since i was 10. I watch all kinds of animals. I love them all! Horses pigs cats dogs bunny guinea pigs. I will watch them all. Even snakes. Anything you need! I have a puggle,. He is even tempered wonderful creature. I would love to watch your animals anytime that i am needed so please feel free to contact me any time day or night. For more information you can visit my Facebook page at facebook. com/ brittsanimalcare and book a time!! Thank you! I'm currently a full time animal sitter. So I am 100% dedicated to your babies!:) They are my life and I am completely committed to the happiness and care of you and your babies! I offer both in your home or my home care. I do not have a fence yet. So i do walks. I love what i do. So it is super inportant to me to make the parents as comfortable as i can:)

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was little, house sitting for neighbors when I was in high school. I worked at a vet clinic that offers doggy daycare and boarding. I know how to administer medication to dogs of all ages and temperaments. I can navigate nervousness in your pup, and help them feel comfortable when you aren’t home. I also have two dogs of my own, both high energy breeds, so I understand the need to exercise your beloved pets and make sure they have proper mental and physical stimulation. Your dog or cat deserves the love you give them everyday, even when you’re away from home; and I intend to give them that same love when I take care of them. I work fully remotely so I am available to assist almost any day of the week and really anytime, with a preference for middays and evenings. Even if I don’t have my availability listed for that day, please reach out and I will always try my best to accommodate! For my own dog, I have him crate trained so he don’t get into anything dangerous while I am gone. As for others animals I make sure they have constant access to fresh water, that their schedule is met, meaning consistent potty breaks, feedings ie. (breakfast, lunch, dinner) and playtimes. Finley is leash reactive, so having experience in that would be beneficial if your pup isn’t as easy of a walker if you’d like them to be.

About: I have my own pets who I take care of everyday and have been surrounded by animals since I was little. I understand that pet care is very individualized and am adaptable. I am very flexible with anything that is needed schedule wise. I am available for overnight stays for any day of the week, but weekends would be preferable I will be aware of the pet at all times and will do my best to keep them in a confortable environment with a new person in their house.

About: I have had pets in my life since I was knee-high to a grasshopper. When I was in my twenties I was in the Kewanee Kennel Club, helping out with puppy obedience classes, I bred and raised Keeshonds, plus had and trained coonhounds. I've had fish, hamsters, ferrets, guinea pigs, kitties, on up to horses in my life....loved them all!!! We presently own rescues and I've noticed the lack of a good place for boarding that doesn't cost an arm and a leg, plus the fact that they just kennel them while you're on vacation. We treat your animals like our own wether they're staying with us, or we visit them in their home. We will take them for walks and have play time daily. Your mind will be at ease knowing your pets are being taken care of while you're at work or on vacation. We still watch puppers 24/7 as they are in our home like they'd be in your home. We do offer kennels inside the home, but we only use them if requested / recommended by owner. We now have 2.5 acres, which when we get a chance we will fence in more area to give our visitors more room to play. For right now the main back yard is fenced in and gives ample room for everyone to run & play. "Our dogs live here, they're here to stay. You don't like pets? Be on your way They share my home, my food, my space This is their home, this is their place. You will find dog hair on the floor, They will alert you're at the door. They may request a litte pat, A simple 'NO' will settle that. It gripes me when I hear you say, Just how is it you live this way? They smell, they shed, they're in the way. WHO ASKED YOU? is all I can say. They love me more than anyone. My voice is like the rising sun, They merely have to hear me say, 'C'mon, time to go and play." Then tails wag and faces grin, They bounce and hop and make a din, They never say, 'No time for you, They're always there, to GO and DO. And if l'm sad, they're by my side. And if I'm mad, they circle wide. And if I laugh, they laugh with me. They understand, they always see. So, once again, I say to you, 'Come visit me,' but know this too.. Our dogs live here, they're here to stay. You don't like pets? Be on your way. They share my home, my food, my space This is their home, this is their place. Credit gpes to original owner

“Tricia was fantastic! She spent time with Ember and it showed. Ember wasn't as frantic when I got home. I know she's had a good break during the day if she is calm. I'd have her watch Ember every day if she lived close to me!”


About: Hi, my name is Justine! I have grown up with dogs and have a lot of experience house sitting, walking and caring for dogs of all sizes. I have experience house-sitting for puppies through senior dogs. I have grown up with dogs in my home from a very young age. I understand the anxiety of having to leave your pet for too long or not wanting to board them, so I enjoy helping people not have to worry about that. Let me know how I can help! I currently work-time. I have a hybrid schedule, so I work from home 2 days a week and in office the other 3. I am available mornings, nights, and mid-day when I am working from home. I prefer to watch dogs in their own home setting. This allows them to remain comfortable and not be stressed by a new environment. This way they can also remain as close to their usual schedules as possible.

About: I have had dogs all my life. I have cared for them since they were puppies until their transition to the rainbow bridge. I love meeting other animals and hearing their stories. I would care for your pets like they were mine. I am currently off work and have many hours in the day to care for your four-legged family members. I could do daily or twice a day walking as needed. I have a fenced in yard that my 5 dogs enjoy. I have 2 dogs that free roam at home. My 2 boys are big barkers, but are dog friendly. I have the other two kenneled due to bad behaviors and the other dog is having mobility issues and I try to keep her safe in the kennel.

About: I currently have 3 dogs and a cat, and I’ve been surrounded by pets my whole life. With years of experience caring for animals, I’m reliable, attentive, and love making sure every pet gets the exercise and attention they need. Whether it’s a fun walk or just some quality time together, I’ll treat your furry friend like my own! My dogs love being at home, and during the summer while i’m home from college, I take on extra responsibility while my parents work. I make sure they’re let out in the mornings, get fed, and then spend time playing outside with them. It’s a routine I really enjoy, and I love keeping them active and happy! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick to their specific routines, from feeding and potty breaks to administering any medication they need. I always make sure the pets feel comfortable and well cared for, whether they’re puppies or adult dogs, and tailor my care to each animal’s needs.

About: I have worked with many animals over my time of pet sitting. I have worked in a boarding and grooming job, retail specific to pets, as well as over night pet sitting, walking, and drop ins I do currently have a part time job but I can try to make anything work for both of our schedules to the best of my ability. I take care of others pets as if they where my own. Even if that means spoiling them a little bit. I have many references and am very confident in my pet sitting abilities.

About: I’ve had a golden retriever named Molly since I was in 3rd grade. I’ve always loved spending time with her. When I was little I was to young to work at my local animal shelter, so instead I would do chores around the house to earn money to buy myself fabric. I would use this fabric to make blankets to donate to the shelter because I wanted to help in any way to make those animals feel loved. I also would take my neighbors dogs for walks and many of the people who I dog walked for would rely on me to come over and take care of them while they were away! I currently work part time, so I can walk dogs anytime after 2pm! On weekends I am completely free to walk dogs at any time! I care for my dog Molly by taking her out to the dog park every weekend and we even go on hikes! I take her to PetSmart every now and then to treat her to a brand new toy :)
