House Sitting in Metamora

About: I’m very easy going. I love to take them for walks, get them a pup cup, parks, etc.. If they have meds or a certain diet that’s not a problem. As well as if they have any other specific needs, I will make sure to meet them. You can expect regular updates and pictures if wanted. I believe every dog should get love and attention so I will make sure not to be a stranger to them! Hope they love their tummy tickled too! Let me know if you have any questions:) I work at OSF St. Francis Medical Center, I am part time from 7am-1pm. I do online schooling therefore I would only be gone during the morning/ afternoon. The rest of the day is fully for the pups! In my clients home they have either a fenced yard or a shock collar to keep them in. One of my clients has specific diets and medication for both of their dogs and prefers if they are walked daily as well! (no extra charge for walking ofc). They text me the details or they write on a piece of paper and leave notes. I have no problem following directions, it is better to be more specific though when telling them. And I do send pics and update my clients if asked or necessary!

“Julie was great with Nooka. We would love to book her again in the future.”

About: I have been around animals my whole life, and I have done dog and cat sitting a few times over the years for neighbors or friends. I’ve had cats and dogs in my home since 2014, and I am very comfortable around both. I currently have a full time job; I work primarily in the mornings with evening shifts thrown in here and there. I don’t do much outside of that, so I am pretty available otherwise. I want to keep all pets feeling comfortable, following their routines/schedule, and keeping them company (within their boundaries). I no longer live with my cats and miss them greatly, so I will make sure they receive extra attention, pets, and playtime (within their boundaries).

“The dogs loved him and the cat tolerated him. Couldn't ask for better!”

“Kara was great with all our dogs (and tortoise)! One of our dogs is old and needs insulin and a diaper and another is very stressed around strangers. Kara took the time to let the dogs get to know her and everything went really well.”

About: I am a veterinary student with 8 years of animal experience! I am trained to look for signs of discomfort or pain in pets! I am also trained to administer medications both orally and through injections if your pet requires any of those types of treatment! I am currently working part time and have very flexible hours! I am willing to work around schedules and will openly communicate about the needs of your pet! I currently do not have a dog at my house as my sweet older baby has recently passed, however I have a fenced in backyard and a quiet neighborhood that is good for walks and exercise outside!

About: Since I was a little girl I’ve loved affection from pets! I was the kid bringing home every stray I found and always putting food out for any neighborhood pets!! Helping to provide an animal with whatever it may need brings me joy! I am currently available with an open schedule and I can not wait to start meeting and helping new people and their fur babies with whatever you need!! I have a huge backyard to run and play and a lay out in the fresh air or inside in the a/c or heat!! Whatever the weather I’ll be sure to keep your pet comfy and loved!!

“Heather is bright, personable, and responsible. Also, she is genuine in her affection for and knowledge of dogs. My "difficult" dog, who barks loudly and scares all visitors was instantly smitten with her. I had to wrestle the dog off the couch when Heather sat down. She was prepared for our meet and greet and asked pertinent questions, showing that she had put thought into the visit. Heather has her own pups and the fact that she has experience with common dog issues is very reassuring. The overnight stay went without a hitch, photos were texted, and I could not be happier. I look forward to having Heather visit again soon!”

“Sami did a great job with Duke and Daisy. She made us feel very relaxed by updating us occasionally with texts and pictures. The dogs loved her and we definitely felt comfortable having her in our home. We will definitely book again.”

About: i have 3 dogs of my own that i absolutely adore, and also have 6 cats that are both inside and outside! i never criticize with size and breed, and am incredibly open minded and understanding of pet struggles and weaknesses!! i love animals, and knowing i could get paid to play and take care of them warms my heart. genuinely, no dog or cat is too much and i would love to work with them all the time if i could! i dog sit for my aunt and uncle, but i also have 3 dogs that are crazy and playful so i understand discipline and the need for love.

About: I provide loving, reliable care and treat every dog like my own. I’m especially comfortable with puppies, including potty routines, crate training reinforcement, and leash manners, as well as senior dogs who need extra patience, gentle care, and medication support. I focus on clear communication and creating a calm, safe environment so you can feel confident your dog is in great hands 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening care, and I plan my schedule around feeding times, walks, playtime, and any special needs. I make sure each pet receives consistent attention, exercise, and love throughout the day, with flexibility for weekends and extended care when needed. I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort in both my home and my clients’ homes. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, medications, and house rules, to keep things consistent and stress-free. I keep a clean, secure environment, carefully supervise pets at all times, and ensure doors, gates, and leashes are always safely managed. In a client’s home, I respect their space and care for pets exactly as instructed, providing regular updates and photos for peace of mind. My goal is to create a calm, loving environment where pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for—just like they would with their own family 🐾🤍

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 :)

About: I’ve had dogs and cats since i was very young and always adored and loved them.

I love pet-sitting and have done so for my friends and coworkers. I’m reliable and very responsible and love being with small/med dogs and/or cats. I’m also trustworthy and independent and will gladly meet your dear pets needs. I generally care for your pets in your home. It’s much more comfortable and familiar for them and it’s where all their things are very handy.
