“Jessica was wonderful as always! She was very communicative and even went above and beyond by taking my dog for a walk and helping clean up when he had an accident. She is very appreciated and absolutely recommended!”


“Terri is literally the best. My kitty boys took right to her from the initial visit. She plays and loves on them in addition to their daily needs. Picture mail is great. Will definitely use her anytime we need a sitter.”


“Isabelle took great care of our two cats while we were on vacation. She was always on time and communicated with us via pictures and text messages. One of the cats was a little difficult due to separation anxiety. Isabelle communicated the situation, listened to our suggestions, and worked extra hard to make him feel less sad. She cared about the cats and was extremely professional.”


About: I have taken care of just about any animal you can think of. I was a veterinary assistant for 4 years. I am 25 years old and currently finishing my bachelor’s degree online at SIUE. I am a teaching assistant for the local school district now! However, I really miss seeing pets all the time so I would love to pet sit for you! I have my own fur babies but I love to meet new pets and build connections with them as well as their owners! I am currently working part time as a nanny and looking to add more pet sitting clients to my workload! I am in college and trying to save money for my future and pet sitting is a very flexible way for me to do that, plus I enjoy it so much! I always love to spend quality time with the animals I am caring for, it helps them to become more comfortable and makes it more enjoyable for me as well! I like to learn the little things that each pet I take care of likes most and use that to bring them comfort and joy while I am caring for them!

About: I’ve been a pet owner since I was 19. I have experience giving medication with my own dogs and worked at a dog boarding place in the past. I promise to love on your dog like they are my own. I work full time Monday through Friday 8:30 am to 5 pm. I’m free most weekends. I’m able to come check on a dog before work and after work. I could possibly go on my lunch break around 1 pm if not too far from my house. Right now I’m not offering services in my house because I have an older dog with vision and health issues. She is more of a people loving dog! At the clients house I will make sure your dog gets plenty of affection and play time. I will try my best to keep them on their normal schedule with potty breaks and meal times. Please make sure to tell me all your dogs favorite things!

“We booked Ben for 2 weeks and when we came back our pets (2 cats) and our house were in perfect condition, just like we left them. They were in perfect health and had no behavioral issues. We were nervous of course but with Ben we had nothing to be worried about. He is very responsive and courteous to texts and questions. Will hire again and again!”

About: Hi! My name is Rebekah! I love all animals especially dogs! Ive dog sat, cat sat, and watched other smaller animals as well. I had adopted a large pup named Bruce that was 8 years old when I got him. I loved him as my child and I promise to care for your dogs the same way I did Bruce! Believe me he was one big SPOILED baby. We went on long walks everyday. Unfortunately he was diagnosed with bone cancer. With covid I had the option to finish my school year from home and was able to care for him in his final months. RIP Bruce. 🙏 Where we are staying now does not allow pets or I would have dogs and bring my Hedgehog Beau over. I'm excited to meet your furry family members no matter the size. I work fulltime as a bank teller but I am available most days in the evening and on the weekends. Reach out about any scheduling questions. Trips to the park, hiking the trails, or just letting our noses take us whereever they do is a must! We can play fetch or whatever their favorite activites are. For the safety of your furry fam we will be avoiding other animals along the way.
