Pet Sitting in Pontiac

“I have 2 cats and it was my first vacation in over 7 years. Pete did a wonderful job. Even my neighbors said I made a good choice with him. I installed cameras just to be safe and we all loved how he talked to them and played with them and their toys. I was so relieved I could enjoy my vacation knowing they were taken care of.”

About: I’ve worked in veterinary medicine as a veterinary assistant and kennel assistant in multiple different offices and shelters for ten years. I also have owned numerous dogs and cats in my lifetime. I have experience with diabetic cats and dogs, and administering medication. There is no dog i cannot medicate when he needs them! I’m a stay at home mom of 1 with two dogs and one cat, so I’m always available. Rain or shine, day or night, I can always pop in on Fido or Fluffy! Unless otherwise discussed with the pet parent, my usual rounds would include cleaning and refilling the water bowl at every visit, feeding at the agreed upon times, bathroom breaks upon my arrival and departure, regardless of the length of my stay, and plenty of loves and scritches for your four legged best friend!

“Emma is great. She truly cares about my dog and doesn't just show up and let him out. She walks him and plays with him too, for the entire booking. She is also very respectful of my house.”

About: I have worked with lots of animals including: dogs, cats, horses, goats, and chickens. I also have experience of giving oral medications and subcutaneous injections. I'm available all day during the weeks, and after 3pm on the weekends to watch and care for your pet. I currently work part time during the day on the weekends. I can care for your animals in their home environment so they feel safe and comfortable and stress free, and recieve lots of love and care that they need!

About: I started volunteering at the animal shelter when I was 10. I have 5 dogs and 8 cats that I have rescued from abusive/neglectful homes, the streets, and from the shelter. I took a vet tech class in high school and a big/small animal class. I’m very good with all kinds and types of animals. I work part time currently, 4 to 5 hours a day Monday-Thursday and I’m off Friday-Sunday. I will definitely be able to care for and engage with your pet when needed. When I go to a new house to dog sit I always lock the doors and make sure to follow all rules I have been given. I stay very aware of my surroundings and the animal.

“Thank you! Very happy with professional care”

About: Hi, I’m Lilia! I’ve been caring for pets for over seven years and absolutely love spending time with animals of all kinds. During the school year, I work in education, but in the summer, I dedicate my time to helping families care for their pets while they’re away or busy. Whether it’s dogs, cats, or other furry (or feathered!) friends, I’m reliable, gentle, and always attentive to each pet’s unique needs. I’m based in both Normal, IL and Chicago, and I’m happy to accommodate your pet’s routine to keep them feeling safe and happy in your absence. Pet care fits perfectly into my weekly routine! I’m currently available Monday through Wednesday and have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets the time and attention they need. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening feedings, I’m able to plan my day around each pet’s specific needs. I enjoy spending time outdoors and find pet care to be one of the most rewarding parts of my week. I always care for pets as if they were my own—whether I’m in my home or theirs. In a client’s home, I stick closely to their usual routines to help pets feel safe and comfortable. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and regular feedings, and I always keep their environment clean and cozy. If I’m caring for pets in my home, I create a calm and welcoming space with access to water, toys, and a comfy place to rest. I also stay in touch with pet parents with regular updates and photos so they know their furry friend is in good hands.

About: Ever since I was little, I have loved animals. I grew up with at least one pet in the house since I can remember. Animal care is basically second nature to me now, and I would love to spread that care to other's pets! I currently have a part-time job, so I have plenty of time for your pets! Taking care of pets has always been the norm for me, so adding more pets to my schedule would be so fulfilling! Having my services in your own home is the best way to keep your pets calm, safe and worry-free. Everything your pet needs is right there!

About: I’ve grown up showing and raising all kinds of animals. I have experience with all kinds of animals, cows pigs, goats, and of course smaller animals like cats and dogs. But I love all of them and have gotten very familiar with taking care of animals, and making sure they’re comfortable as well. I live on a farm, so pet care is part of my daily life anyways, and I’m used to having to fit that into my schedule, even when busy, so if I have another to take care of, that’s no issue! My animals are definitely cared for. They have a huge yard with plenty of room to run; and plenty of companions. They are played with and they get lots of love, and your pet would be no different.

About: Fur babies are my life … No literally! 🤗 I’m a Veterinarian Assistant so caring for your pet is literally what I do, what I love.🥰 I do pick ups and drop offs !! I work in VETMED at a local Veterinary clinic part time . So that gives me tons of extra time during the week. I also do drop in during my work day as well. !! I have a fenced in yard and a very nice fur baby to keep your fur baby company. I do also have created if needed.

“Camille took excellent care of our two cats. One required daily meds and she was very diligent about getting her the meds.”

“Absolutely great!”

About: I have taken care of family pets and friends' pets since I was 10. I have always had a love for dogs. Up until the past couple of years it has grown and I want to help others out. I have educated myself with knowledge. And am willing to help you find solutions on problems you may be having. I'm currently working full-time. But given my work shift, I am off at 1 pm. This gives me time to help others who are at work and may not have the option to come home and take them out for a potty break. Or take them for a walk. I have 2 playful pups at home who love to play and go on walks. It's always my priority for them to be happy and healthy. And I want that for everyone's pet.

“Julie took care of my two cats while I was away on vacation. She sent me updates every day and took the time to play with my rowdy 2-year-old cat to help him release his pent-up energy. It was great knowing that they were in such good hands while I was away!”

About: I’ve taken great care of animals for a very long time. I treat animals like they are my family. I’m always there to care for them and give them the love and care they deserve I would like this to be my full time job. I have a lot of time through out the day and week. I’m usually always free. I have 3 cats of my own. I always make sure they have food and fresh water and would do the same for anyone else’s animals.

About: I’ve owned dogs and cats, all of my life. I was a police officer and Sheriff for 32 years. I’ve dealt with most all animals. I love them all!! I’m currently a retired sheriff. I work part time for American Airlines about 20 hours per week in Bloomington, and working on a license to sell real estate as a part-time job in Livingston County. And I have been a police officer, since I was 18 years old. I am very trustworthy and honest. I’ve grown up around many types of animals and feel comfortable around them.

About: I have had pets since I was a kid, and all through my life I have had some sort of animal. Big or small, I have tons of experience with all kinds. Now, I have 14 fur/feather/scale babies of my own and I am going to IVCC to getting my associates in science and majoring in wildlife bio. I am out of school for the summer and looking for anything really. Full time or part time. And any time of the night or day is fine with me. I have 14 pets, no dogs or cats, but I did have plenty of them growing up. Right now we have 6 birds, three different kinds, ((3 of them are house ducks)) a snake and the rest are smaller animals rabbit, piggy's, ferret etc. The rabbit is free roam, the birds and other animals all have their own free roam/fly time. Our house is on a set schedule as soon as the sun peeks through, lol, the ducks let us know, it's time to get the day started. Due to us having this many kiddos, we do plan long days ahead of time so everything is adjusted properly so everyone is taken care of. I am no stranger to getting dirty or dealing with any type of mess. Depending on the weather, we are outside as much as possible with a number of them and always trying to find new ways to keep their little minds engaged.

About: I've taken care of animals my whole life. I do not remember a day in my life that I didn't have a dog! I have dogs of my own and I also take care of families dogs, friends dogs along with boarding other peoples dogs, and I also foster dogs. I have experience giving dogs baths, taking them for walks, playing with them, cuddles, calming them down and taking them on car rides. I currently stay at home and run a farm. I am pretty flexible with my schedule for all services provided. I can do short term care or long term care. I do ask that if you have to cancel please give me plenty of notice. I have a fenced in dog run right off a deck that the dogs sunbathe on. I live in the country on 4 acres so we have plenty of space for walks and runs. I have 4 dogs of my own, cats, and chickens. I'm currently a stay at home Mom. So I will have plenty of time to play with your pups. I also have plenty of time to board on the weekend! We take walks down country roads. I live on 4 acres so we have plenty of room to play and run on a long leash!

About: Playing with cats and dogs since I was born. I've also owned fancy rats, a black emperor scorpion, a few small snakes, cats and dogs. I can friend most size or temperament. Nail care and baths can take some time for trust. I've done that work and then some on animal (and human patients). I'm here to learn be more responsive and responsible. Reading an animals body language seems fairly straightforward to me. Also willing to learn about farm animals. Skills? Work with puppies to seniors. Patience to explore new ground. Endurance to not stop till the dog wants. I don't run like I used to, another reason why I'm here. I enjoy the ability to give the dog a sense they've discovered something on that walk. I'm new to this service but not to customer service. I'd look forward to your criticism as much the praise. I'm working full time driving truck for a farm. Animal care can be before 4am or after 8pm. We're almost done with harvest. Bacon bacon Safe and respectful, same way I would in your home. I have a small apartment. It'd have to be a special client before I consider bringing your animal back to my place. Would you like for me to bring my beard trimmer to spruce up your pup? May I sit on your deck with a hot tea and throw tennis balls? I want your pet to welcome me just as you do. I'm new to this so I'll respond to the animal. A 12 year old dog still remembers what it's like to be a puppy for a few minutes a day.
