About: Hello! My name is Ella! I am a student at EIU and a PCT and SBL ! I have worked as a dog sitter/walker for friends and family and even strangers that have heard through the grapevine! Now that I live here I’m just looking for some more connections and fur babies down here! I cannot wait to help you and your fur ball out! I have experience in cleaning up after them, walks, feedings, administering medications, and simple check ins! I am happy to also love on them and make sure they are happy and healthy! I work part time at Sarah Bush Hospital and am a Senior at EIU! Pet walking/sitting interests me because I want to grow connections down here, and make some extra cash on the side ! I plan to fill my off days with loving on your fur babies! I mainly plan to walk dogs and come to your home! I will clean up after your pup/kitty and house sit any other needs you may have! I also love walking and can handle any size dog (I may be tiny but I’m very mighty! I grew up with walking 3 of my neighbors Huskies!) I am here to try to tend to your needs the best I can!
“Brianna is seriously amazing! She has gone above and beyond to make sure our pet has loved, played with, and cared for! You can’t find a better person to work with or trust with your furry babes! :)”
About: I love dogs. Big or small they are smart, intuitive, loyal and good judges of character. We will do different activities depending on your dog's personality, temperament, and age. Wether we go for a walk or play your loved one will get that one-on-one attention they so desperately need. If you need someone to wear out that puppy and make sure they get that good exercise, I'm your girl. If your dog is older and just needs a good pampering, I got you. I am available early mornings 7 days a week. My availability short notice will vary based on how close the pick up and drop off are. I know lots of parks and good neighborhoods with nice shady sidewalks for your dog and I to explore. I am willing to share GPS location so you always know where your pet might be while with me.
“Jennifer was so amazing to my Bella, I never worried a single second I was gone! She is not only so sweet, but genuinely cares for and loves animals. I will 100% be asking her to watch my pup again! Thank you Jennifer❤️”
“My cat Fig loved her time with Anj, and I loved knowing she was getting lots of playtime, pets, and her food and water taken care of. Anj sent pictures each time she visited Fig which gave me peace of mind seeing how happy she was, even while I was away for a week.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life, including walking, feeding, and giving plenty of attention and love. I’ve also helped neighbors by dog-sitting and walking their pups when needed. I’m patient, reliable, and excited to care for your furry family member! I trained my dog Beau from puppyhood, so I’m familiar with basic commands, house training, and patience needed for young dogs. I’m also comfortable providing gentle care for senior dogs, including help with medication and slower-paced walks. Pet care fits well into my daily routine. On weekdays, I’m available early mornings (5:00–6:30 a.m.) and evenings after 4:30 p.m. I have mostly open availability on weekends and can provide flexible care then. I live in an apartment, so dogs in my care get regular walks and lots of attention. I walk my own dog, Beau, daily and often take him to the dog park for exercise and enrichment. In a client’s home, I follow their routines closely to help pets feel safe and secure. I respect their space, follow all instructions, and make sure pets are comfortable and cared for. I’m always mindful of leash safety, locked doors, and keeping a calm, pet-friendly environment. Owners can trust that I’ll treat their pets and homes with the same care I give my own.

Sierra R.
“Sierra was great with our two dogs. She took excellent care of them. Virgil, the Aussie, can be a handful. He is a ball of energy. Sierra played with him an entertained him until he was tired. Orville, the Irish Wolfhound, can be shy and leary of people. She handled him without any issues and he loves her now. Sierra is very knowledgeable about dog breeds and their personalities. Followed our instructions perfectly and left our home in better shape than we did. We chose her for all of our pet sitting needs. She even cared for our chickens while we were out of town.”
