“Shelby was amazing with our pups. She arrived right on time and sent pics of them throughout the weekend. We will definitely reach out again to have her come stay with our dogs!”

About: Please take into consideration the quality of your pet sitter over a low rate inexperienced "pet lover" that just wants to watch animals . There's a difference. "RATES LISTED HERE ARE BASIC RATES- THEY MAY BE ADJUSTED ON A CASE BY CASE SCENARIO (UP OR DOWN) DEPENDING ON THAT ANIMALS PARTICULAR NEEDS" *******IMO- ANIMALS trump most people 😁 I Specialize in special needs animals & alternative ways to treat that aren't offered by most vets due to my life long experience , I know what works. I also am fond on taking care of any & all animals including horses and farm animals. Right down to guinea pigs n snakes of all kinds. If you need dog boarding, as long as I have notice I can make myself available & home 24/7 ** I work M-F daily, so any animal I can work into my schedule is a great fit. I cannot do daily letting out of dogs unless I have NOTICE (deposit required) I am open to ANY animal watched in my home if that is preferential. I can also "stay" in your home outside of my daily work schedule I'm in a huge farm house, large yard and except for weekly job am always home for one on one. Im extremely close to my local vet and have dealt with many different situations.

“Jeff was lovely and extremely kind! He took great care of our boys and was easy to communicate with. We appreciate everything he did and highly recommend!”

“Elizabeth did a house sitting for Bella (14), Mookie (5) and Mavi (9 months). We were very nervous about leaving the dogs especially the puppy for 3 and half days. Our dogs are used to sleeping with us and getting a lot of attention. The older dog also requires a diaper when she is in the house. Elizabeth did a FANTASTIC job. She sent pictures and updates throughout the visit which truly helped us feel comfortable with her care. I would HIGHLY recommend Elizabeth to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”

About: Taking care of your animal will be my number one priority. I love animals, I will be more than attentive to their needs and accommodate anything you would like. I’m available any time you need me and I will take in any animal, big, small, furry, hairless, you name it! I love them all. I’ve had animals my whole life so I know how to take care of dogs, I’ve had cats now for 5 years and kittens and it’s a handful but it has taught me so many things needed to be a perfect sitter! I love getting pets toys, and fancy food sometimes to spoil them so expect that (if it’s fone with the owner) of course. I can’t wait to meet you and your lovely pet!

About: I've been surrounded by furry friends since day one! 🐶 Seriously, I can't remember a time without a doggo by my side. Thinking about all the pets I've had makes me so happy. 🥰 Anyone else feel like their pets are family? It's the best kind of love! Enjoying the freedom of open schedule currently at home full-time. So furry buddies will get Daily walks around the lake to offer a refreshing escape. Relaxing time outside under tree shade help me do some gardening🤣. Dogs will be created when I am not home. I currently own a golden retriever. She's a friendly dog. I don't have a fenced in yard my dog listens to commands. Leashes and yard leads will be used. At night dogs will be in their creates.

About: Upfront: For housesitting: I do work midnights. I would be away from about 10/10:30pm until 7:30/8am. LSometimes I can rearrange things given enough notice. I'm 50 years old, and have mostly owned pit bull breed dogs, but I love all breeds. From 2010 to 2018, my APBT was trained as a therapy animal, we did hospital visits and library events with children. I taught him several tricks, such as left, right, speak, play dead. My current pit is a rescue and I am off leash training. Dog Walking: I work in the Kankakee area, so coming to walk your dog in Kankakee, Bradley, Bourbonnais, is NO problem! Either in the mornings (after 7am) and/or later in the evenings (8ish pm) it's all negotiable. I live in Iroquois county, so I have more availability to walk your dog if you are in that area. Pet Sitting: I can come to sit in your home, if that is preferred. I am also available to just come let them outside, spend time and play, feed, water, clean up. Boarding: I would love to open our home to your precious babies. Non smoking, fenced in yard, lots of walks in my small town. My dog friendly pup can't wait to play tag around the dining room table. All pets are welcome on the couches and have full access to the entire 1st floor, including the bed in the spare room. My husband and I work different shifts, so someone is usually always home. A maximum of 3 to 4 hours of an occasional overlap in shifts. I am able to crate your pet if preferred, or close off access to half of the living space. Before boarding, a few meet and greets are necessary. More details as we move forward. Cats: I will help with your cats, spending time, play, feed, clean litter boxes. I also have several years of experience with birds. I know how important socializing is to birds, and leaving them alone can cause problems and stress. Boarding of cats and birds can be discussed. As I'm nearing retirement from the Healthcare field, I would like to do more of what I love, which is caring for and spending time with animals. If I can do that for you, and ease your worry while you are away, it's a win for everyone! Reach out and let me help you today. As far as boarding your dog, my husband and I work different shifts, so someone is always home. A fully fenced back yard and good sniffer walks in my small town. Your dog is welcome on the couches and downstairs bed. Access to entire 1st floor. I can also crate if preferred. Baths and nail trims are no problem! I have a 60lb staffordshire terrier who loves all kids, people and dogs. It's playtime almost 24/7! Unless it's nap time and he's professional at that also!

About: I bring 7+ years of pet care experience, including working in a daycare setting where I cared for multiple dogs at once. I focus on safety, structure, fun playtime, and personalized attention to every during alone time. Making sure they feel comfortable, confident, and excited to see me. I am currently completing an externship for school, which takes place earlier in the day.

“Vanessa was awesome. My other dog sitter cancelled two days before I was supposed to leave for out of town. Vanessa responded quickly to my request for last minute booking and came that night to meet me and lulu. While i waa gone, she freqiently sent me pictures and update on my dog which I loved! She also quickly responded when I asked questions. No issues or concerns and will definitely use her for sitting again in the future!”

Emily K.

“Super appreciative of Bailey and her good nature! I was very nervous leaving my old gal for a few days, especially not at our house. But Bailey assured me everything would be okay and it was! She was great at handling my girl, and her weird quirks did not deter Bailey at all from taking great care of her. Would definitely recommend and will definitely be using Bailey in the future if she wants to watch my pup again!”

About: I’ve been around dogs since I was a child and owned a few so nothing really intimidates me about any dog or cat. But personally, I do love cats more. They’re just much more my personality. At the moment, I honestly do not have that much time but if I do have an open day, it’ll be on the weekends and I can move things around pretty flexibly Building trust with any living thing takes time and willingness to meet bumps in the road. I’m committed to making sure your pet and your space are well respected and taken care of.

“Everything went great!! Highly recommend Kaitlyn to anyone in need of a caring trustworthy sitter.”

About: Experience with all kinds of pets and reptiles. Will be treated with upmost care. I can provide a number of services including bathing, walking, feeding, cutting nails/grooming and any special requests from you.

I will have a designated play area for your fur babies if any needed. If staying at my place you will have access to a nanny cam to view over your fur babies and I will update with pictures and calls if needed. I will follow any schedule given.

About: Hello, thank you for taking the time to visit my profile! Animals are my life! I have always had pets growing up as a child, and my love for them has grown even more into my adulthood. I became a pet sitter because it is my passion to help others, so giving back to owners and animals is very rewarding to me! Additionally, I have a lot of experience working at an animal shelter for a couple of years, dealing with newborns to wildlife of all different types of species, as well as having a background in medical care. I’ve been boarding, walking, dog walking/drop-ins and house sitting for the last 5 years; therefore, I have all the experience to provide your services! I look forward to meeting you and your furry loved one(s)! I’m currently a stay at home mom, so I will have plenty of time to help nurture and love on your fur baby while you’re away. In my home, I offer a cozy and pet-friendly environment where animals can feel comfortable and secure. This includes designated areas for sleeping, playtime, and feeding, along with access to fresh water at all times. I adhere closely to the pet’s regular routine, following feeding schedules and ensuring they receive plenty of exercise and mental stimulation through walks and interactive play. Plus, I have a securely fenced yard for added safety. Regular communication with the pet owner is crucial, providing updates and photos to keep them informed and reassured of their pet’s well-being. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their familiar routine and environment to minimize stress. This involves following detailed instructions provided by the owner regarding feeding, medication, and any specific care needs. I ensure the home remains clean and tidy, including regular pet waste removal and basic housekeeping tasks. Offering companionship and attention to the pet is essential, with regular playtime, cuddles, and affection provided to keep them happy and content while their owner is away. Effective communication with the owner, including updates on the pet’s activities and behavior, helps to build trust and ensure peace of mind throughout the pet-sitting experience.”

About: I’ve been taking care/training dogs for 6+ years. I have worked with a professional dog trainer for about three years; training, boarding, walking, socializing, and generally taking care of them. I love training dogs cool tricks and basic obedience! I am currently enrolled full time in college, but am flexible in the early mornings, afternoons, and evenings seven days a week! Just let me know! I am experienced with taking care of/training multiple dogs, but would prefer working with one dog at a time (if you have multiple) until the dogs are at a comfortable level of training. This really varies on the animals, but I work with all situations.
