Dog Sitting Rockford

About: I've been the go-to for pet sitting since I was 9. Working alongside my Nanny mom and taking my own jobs with dogs as big as mastiffs and as small as chihuahua's. I love all pets, no matter how moody or sweet. I'm currently in school so I'll have plenty of time to play with your babies! I'm available for drop-ins before and after school and completely open on the weekend. I am very accommodating to any space, providing love and care for your baby wherever you may be at. I love playing outside with them or just cuddling up on the couch.

About: I have loads of experience! From fostering dogs to being a licensed vet tech of 10 years!!! I decided I wanted a different direction and starting my own business and pet sit on the side. I'm loving every second of it! I work from home so taking care of your baby will fit right into my schedule. I can do whatever is needed and more! Just ask! I prefer to care for animals in their homes where they are comfortable, but if they are good with other dogs/peope/ and cats they can come to mine. I have 6bdogs ranging from puppy to senior and 5 cats. They all get along well with other dogs and cats but if one was to join our pack they would have to do the same.

“Sarah did a great job with my cats! Not only did she feed and take care of the litter, but she also was helpful with collecting my packages and mail for me while I was away. She also takes great photos of your pet while she is watching them!”

“Addison was great! She was very easy to communicate with throughout her visits and sent lots of updates and pictures/videos of our dog. We could tell our dog was very happy each day! 10/10”

“So grateful to Eric for agreeing to drop in on Savannah last minute! She appreciated the crate break while I was on a day trip without her. Eric was quick to respond to my messages and very attentive to my child ☺️”

“Thank you Thomas for taking such good care of our girls!”

“I cannot say enough good things about Ava as our dog walker. She walks my pitbull, Giovanni, and my Frenchie, Jerry, and is so gentle, patient, and calm with them, which means everything to me. Ava is incredibly reliable, always on time, and treats Giovanni and Jerry like her own. I love the updates I get after walks, and I always feel like they are safe and well cared for when they’re with her. Both dogs are happier, calmer, and get so excited every time Ava shows up. If you’re looking for someone you can completely trust with your dogs—especially strong breeds—Ava is the best!”

“Veronica was an absolutely wonderful cat sitter, and I can’t recommend her enough! She took such great care of my cat while I was away, making sure everything was clean, comfortable, and stress-free. It was clear she genuinely cares about animals—she spent quality time giving attention and affection, not just stopping in to feed and leave. I really appreciated her communication as well. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing my cat was happy and in good hands. When I came home, everything was exactly as it should be, and my cat was relaxed and well cared for. If you’re looking for someone reliable, trustworthy, and truly compassionate with animals, Veronica is the one. I will definitely be using her again!”

About: I grew up with all different kinds of animals and have petsitting experience taking care of cats and dogs. I love spending time with animals and the joy they bring! At this time, my schedule is mostly open and I am accepting new clients. I am available during the week and weekends as well. Let me know if you have any questions! I have 2 dogs myself, a pit mix and beagle. They are truly the beat companions. I can do drop-in visits, doggy daycare (can be customized to your dog’s needs / wants), overnight boarding in our home, and dog walks!

“Stephanie was great, all my animals loved her- even my pit-bull mastiff who can be weird with people took to her right away. And I have a very shy cat who hides and comes out for no one, but she came out of hiding for Stephanie, which says a lot. I was able to enjoy my trip out of town and not worry about them. She sent updates and pictures and I hope to have her drop in again when I need it. She's very likable, has good energy, is trustworthy, and was on time every time. Highly recommend.”

“Michaela does a great job. She’s very communicative and does a great job of taking pictures and making us feel confident our dog is safe and card for.”

Kyleigh M.

“Rebecca was an absolute life saver and amazing watching our dog while we were gone for a week! She jumped in last moment when our original sitter cancelled and had our little one in great hands. She is very communicative, a quick responder, and we really appreciated the full updates and numerous pictures with each check in. Would hire her again in a heartbeat!”

About: I am a caring and attentive individual who absolutely loves my pets and treats them like family. Located near the Foothills of the Smoky Mountains. My home is the perfect home away from home for you pet while you enjoy your vacation. I occasionally care for my neighbors pets with drop in visits at their home when they are out of town. I am home all day with my fur babies. I would be able to care for your pet and give it all the attention and love it needs. I have a fence, but not completely closed. We are working on getting that done soon. I do have a small fence closed in around my patio so the dogs can freely hang outside with me. During potty breaks I will make sure to have your pet out with a leash at all times. I have 2 friendly dogs as well. If your pet needs to be crated I can do that also.

About: I have extensive hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals, including dogs and cats. My experience includes daily husbandry, feeding, medication administration, exercise, cleaning, and monitoring animal health and behavior. I’m comfortable handling animals with different personalities and care needs and am committed to providing safe, attentive, and individualized care. I am a full time student but I am fully able to provide care overnight. I will be able to stay with a pet over multiple days and will provide long walks (if needed) when I finish school in the afternoon. I will care for each pet according to their individual routine, personality, and needs. I’ll follow all owner instructions closely, provide plenty of attention, exercise, feeding, and enrichment, and make sure they are safe and comfortable throughout my care. I’ll also keep owners updated with regular messages and photos so they know their pets are happy and well cared for.

“Izzy was absolutely great! We traveled for a week and my dog had a seizure towards the end of the week and she was there for him and really supported him and did everything above and beyond what was expected. She’s great!”

About: With 10 years of experience in caring for dogs, I’ve developed an unmatched understanding of canine behavior, health, and happiness. Over the years, I’ve had the honor of sharing my life with some truly special dogs, each of whom has shaped my approach to pet care in unique ways. My journey began with my beloved Sparkles Jane, whose sweet and gentle nature taught me the true meaning of loyalty and companionship. She was more than just a pet; she was a friend, a teacher, and a source of endless love. While Sparkles Jane is no longer with me, the lessons I learned from her continue to guide my care for all dogs I encounter. I’ve also had the pleasure of caring for Patches, whose playful spirit and affectionate personality brought joy to every moment. Through these years, I’ve learned the importance of patience, consistency, and the deep emotional bond that forms between a dog and their caregiver. Now, I’m lucky enough to spend time with my sweet Beau Beau and Chippy, two dogs who continue to hold a special place in my heart. I absolutely love house-sitting for Beau Beau and Chippy, providing them with comfort and companionship whenever I’m back home. Their personalities are a perfect reminder of why I’m so passionate about what I do—every dog is unique, and they all deserve love, attention, and care tailored to their needs. Having lived with dogs my entire life, I understand the importance of building trust and creating a safe, positive environment where dogs feel comfortable and loved. Whether it’s providing extra care for a senior dog or engaging in playful activities with a younger dog, I know how to cater to their individual needs with kindness, expertise, and a lot of love. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares for dogs and has a decade of hands-on experience, I’d be honored to care for your furry family members. With my background, I promise to provide them with the highest level of attention, care, and companionship they deserve. Hello!

Whether you need someone to look after your furry family members while you're away for work, vacation, or any other reason, I’m available to provide reliable, loving care. My remote work setup means I can easily adjust my schedule to be there for your pets, ensuring they get the attention and companionship they deserve while you're not around.

Let’s connect and see how I can make your life easier while providing your pets with top-notch care! As a pet lover with a deep passion for animal care, I treat every pet I look after as if they were my own.

I understand how much pets mean to their owners, and I’m excited to spend time with your little one, showering them with the care and attention they deserve. I truly believe that pets are more than just animals—they’re family. That’s why I approach every task with the same enthusiasm and dedication I would for my own pets. From getting their favorite treats to ensuring they have plenty of playtime and exercise, I’m here to create a positive and fun experience for your pet, no matter what they enjoy most. Whether it’s a lively walk around the block, a fun game of fetch, or simply cuddling up and relaxing together, I’m always excited to bond with your pet and provide them with companionship and affection. Bath time? No problem! I make sure it’s a gentle, enjoyable experience for your pet, leaving them feeling refreshed and pampered. And when it comes to feeding, I stick to their usual routine and ensure they’re getting the proper nutrition to stay healthy and happy. With my attention to detail, love for animals, and commitment to giving your pets the best care possible, you can trust that they’re in loving hands. I’m not just a pet sitter—I’m here to be your pet’s best friend, ensuring they feel cherished and well-cared for every moment they’re with me.

“We so appreciate how they went above and beyond with house visits for our pups. Great communication too! They’re dog lovers and took wonderful care of our fur babies. Highly recommend!”

About: I have had pets all my life. Mainly dogs. I have trained some of my personal pets in the past. I also love seeing animals personalities, and learning to work with them from there. I work 8a-4p Tuesday - Friday, and some Mondays (same hours). I never work weekends or evenings. I have an hour for lunch on the days I work, so I am able to run by for a potty break if needed. I have a big fenced in backyard just waiting for your dog to come roam! I do not currently have any pets, so I do not have a cage, water bowl, leash, etc. I live in a quiet neighborhood perfect for walks.

About: I’ve owned dogs my whole life and have a lot of hands-on experience caring for them. Over the years, I’ve taken care of dogs for friends, family, and people I didn’t personally know through pet sitting. I’m comfortable with everyday care like feeding, walks, playtime, bathing, nail trimming, and giving medication when needed. I also have experience with mild dog training and working on basic manners and routines. I understand that every dog is different. Some need lots of exercise and attention, while others are happier relaxing and sticking to their normal routine. I do my best to follow each owner’s instructions and make sure their dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while they’re away. Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with them and treating them like part of the family. Pet care fits easily into my routine, and I’m able to plan my schedule around the needs of the pets I’m caring for. I make sure I have enough time for feeding, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and plenty of attention. I understand how important it is for pets to stay on their normal routine, so I do my best to follow the schedule and instructions each owner provides. I’m also flexible when it comes to drop-ins, walks, and sitting, and I always make sure I have the time needed to give each pet proper care rather than rushing through a visit. Safety and trust are very important to me when caring for someone else’s pet. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, walking routines, and any specific rules for the home. I make sure doors, gates, leashes, and other areas are secure, and I keep a close eye on pets during walks, playtime, and visits. I also take the time to learn each pet’s personality, habits, and comfort level so I can help them feel safe and relaxed while their owner is away. I treat every home with respect and every pet like I would want someone to treat my own. I also believe communication is important, so I’m happy to provide updates and let owners know how their pet is doing while they’re in my care.
