“I could not have been happier about Laura cared for Roscoe (my dog). She shared with me on a daily basis what they were doing and how he was doing. I am certain there was a definite bond made between them. She was absolutely great. Thank you. Cindy”
“Jessica was amazing! My pups were happy and well cared for. She is experienced and knowledgeable. Loved getting the picture updates and communication on how they were doing! Will definitely reach out again in the future”
“Ashley did great with our two pups! She seemed to know how to navigate our more anxious pup and get her to warm up to her, which is huge for me as I worry about our anxious girl! Our other pup is deaf and a bit of a handful, but she did great!”
“Abby was great to work. She communicated frequently and asked questions to make sure she followed what Yoly needed. She kept Yoly in her routine and was a great house guest. I would not hesitate to book with Abby again.”
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!
