House Sitting in Rock Island Arsenal

“Yuliia was great! She took wonderful care of the dogs and the house. We got daily updates and pictures of the dogs, which I loved. I’ll definitely be reaching out to her again, the next time we need a dog sitter 🤗”

“Sophie really went above and beyond caring for our sweet babies. I was really worried about leaving 4 cats for 17 days but she put me at ease right away. Providing pictures and updates. She even helped us with an ant problem she noticed in the kitchen. When I got home my cats did not seem stressed like they usually do when left alone, they also seemed very well cared for. I would absolutely book Sophie again.”

Ana N.

“Cassandra was a great sitter for Peaches. She has experience with senior dogs and giving medication and sent pictures and updates to let us know how things were going. Upon our return, Peaches (and the house) were in great spirits and conditions.”

About: I've been around dogs my whole life—grew up with one, and when I got to college, I adopted my own pup from the humane society. Caring for him has taught me so much about patience, training, and the joy pets bring into our lives. I'm a firm believer that everyone needs a furry best friend just as much as they need us. Whether it's energetic puppies or sweet senior dogs, I’m here to give them the love and attention they deserve while you're away. As a full-time student-athlete and remote part-time employee at a law firm, I understand the importance of balancing responsibilities. Being far from my home in Michigan, I miss getting off campus every now and then, which makes caring for others' pets even more rewarding. With no classes on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and availability on weekends, I have the flexibility to provide attentive and loving care to your furry friends. Feel free to reach out to discuss availability! When caring for pets in their own homes, I focus on maintaining their usual routines and ensuring they feel safe and loved while you're away. I stick to their regular feeding schedules, provide plenty of playtime and walks, and make sure they have their favorite toys and cozy spots. I also keep you updated with messages and photos, so you can see how happy and well-cared-for your pet is. It's all about making sure they feel comfortable and keeping things as normal as possible until you're back.

About: I have experience with dogs from any age and any breed and temperament. I am also knowledgeable on giving medication (both oral and via injection). In the summer, I work part-time during the days (anywhere from 9am to 5pm), however when my college classes start up in the fall, I have much more time to spend with your pets! Before each stay, for both my and your comfort, I tend to plan a meeting to get to know your animal and your space better! I find that in person meetings with pets before housesitting exponentially improves the quality of the experience for both me and your furry friend. Complicated instructions/"trouble" animals don't deter me, either. I will play, feed, walk, and clean up after your pet for as long as needed!

“Emerson was very communicative and Becky (with the Good Fur) was very happy when I returned home. I’ve booked her for additional dog sitting this month.”

Shane H.

“Heather was amazing. The pets loved her so much I think I got a little jealous, actually! And it was wonderful having someone staying at the house instead of just coming in and out. Less stress on them, and me! Heather was extremely conscientious and thoughtful, provided regular updates, and followed instructions carefully. Knowing everything was taken care of back home really enabled me to just relax and enjoy my trip. Will definitely try to book her for future trips.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs ranging from small to very large in the last 4 years. I administer medication every morning to my own dog and I have great time management to fit my pets feeding schedules. I currently work at a daycare every Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 1pm-6pm and Tuesday’s and Thursday’s from 7:30am-4:30pm. However I will be leaving that job at the end of July and I am looking for short term employment as I will be moving in the coming months. I have reliable transportation so you would never have to worry about your pet not getting cared for in a timely manner. I also have a crate to use in the car if needed for transporting pets. Although most of my pet care experience is with dogs, I am open to caring for cats and other pets as well!

“5 star sitting as always. Dylan is super responsive, helpful, thoughtful towards the needs of our pets, respectful of or house... and the pets are stoked because they get so spoiled : D We're so happy we stumbled across Dylan on here!”

Anna N.

“Great to work with, very responsive, sent pictures and updates on a regular basis. Left the home in good order. I would highly recommend them for any pet sitting that you may need!”

I am available to work with almost any schedule and I will always make room for more opportunities and I’m available when needed for care I love animals and I will take care of them when needed even if it’s a walk or watching dogs, I’ve done this for family.

“Destiny did a wonderful job taking care of our pup. She handled our dog's finicky eating and allergies well. I would definitely recommend trusting your fur friends to Destiny!”

Melinda L.

“Two very large dogs intent on destroying our home (or so it seemed) and somehow Amanda kept order. We received daily communication and pictures and she cleaned up their destruction. We returned to a surprisingly clean house. Definitely rebooking her.”

Rhonda G.

“Susie was very good. I’m sure the dogs liked her more than they do me”

Dave F.

“Zebulon tended to my dogs perfectly. They took to his kind and gentle soul and were calm and content when I returned home from an overnight trip”

About: I’ve had the pleasure of taking personal care of numerous dogs over the last 30 years. The dogs I’ve personally cared for have been various sizes - from less than 30th lbs to over 80lbs. I’m comfortable in caring for all sizes. I love all dogs!! I have a huge fenced-in yard with both sun and shade. I have a 2.5 year old neutered male cattle dog mix (Thor) who is the love of my life. He loves all people and all animals. He would love to play in our yard with your dog(s). In the last year I was employed by a high-end doggy daycare and boarding business as a Pet Care Technician. In that capacity I watched over and cared for numerous dogs - both large and small. I cared for and loved each one as if they were my very own. I’d love to care for your furbaby as well! I am currently retired from work as a Pet Care Tech at a high end doggy day care and boarding business. I’m available on weekdays and completely available on weekends for playtime and care of your pup! I have a large fenced-in yard and a playful 2.5 year old cattle dog mix. Playtime, sunshine, and love await your furbaby. If your dog is older or more laid back, then laying in the yard sunbathing and plenty of snuggling time sounds wonderful as well.

About: I've taken care of dogs from a variety of sizes and breeds since age 10. My family has owned more than 5 dogs that I've supported through their entire lives including disabled dogs. I've recently began cat sitting and love all furry friends! My house is spacious with just my partner and myself with a non-fenced but decent sized yard. I also work remote and am 100% available to support your pet during any stays! I work remote from my house as a software engineer and generally have open availability for dog walks, house visits and potty breaks. My boarding is perfect for those that need extra attention or a friend nearby! I have a non-fenced yard and a tranquil house with two humans (myself and my partner). We have plenty of dog toys as we pet sit our family's dog nearby and have leashes. We offer regular exercise, play time or cuddles when they need it. Also willing to distribute prescribed medications and follow any instructions regarding disabilities.

About: On top of being a veterinary assistant for over three years, I have also taken care of pets of my own and family and friends' since I was very young. I began working at the humane society at 14 and haven't stopped working with animals since! I have a B.S in Animal Ecology, and am currently working towards becoming a Registered Veterinary Technician. I currently work full-time at a veterinary hospital with weekends free. I never work past 6:30pm and never go in before 7am. Once a week I am off at 2pm, and another day I do not go in until 12pm. This provides me a flexible schedule to take care of your furry kiddos! I have a large yard that will be fully fenced in by the end of the summer, and a very friendly dog myself who loves to make new friends. I also have very tolerant cats that adapt to new friends as well! I have a spare room and crate available if needed. I have my own nail trimming supplies and transportation for myself and even for your fur baby if needed!

About: I have taken care of pets since I was a kid. I currently have two 18 year old cats and I take care of my sisters maine coon. Also had a dog as a kid that I always took for walks and fed. I have an open schedule currently. I am available almost any time possible currently. Monday through Friday and the weekends too. Long as I got a 24 hour notice before I am ready! I will always follow the owners instructions on what they prefer to keep their pet happy, comfortable, and safe. Make it feel like the owner never left for the pet.

“Allison did a great job with my dogs! She sent pictures, let me know how things were going, and asked questions if she had them. I would definitely have Allsion watch my pups again!”
