“Gwendolyn went above and beyond! She made my parents nervous dog immediately at ease. Phenomenal communication, and was incredibly flexible working with me. I very highly recommend!”
About: Hello, my name is Ayla. I have been taking care of a variety of pets my entire life. Whether that be my own, my families, or my neighbors. I started working in the pet industry when I was 17. I have worked at stores like Petco and Petsmart. I take a great interest in POSITIVE dog training, and grainfree dog food and treats. I believe our loved ones deserve the best we can offer. My pets are my family and I will always treat other animals the way I treat my own. With love, compassion and patience. I have never been a groomer but I love giving pets a good brushing to keep their coat clean and tangle free. Currently my family consists of three large dogs and two kittens we rescued from the side of the road. I currently am a stay at home dog mom so I can easily adjust plans and care for your pets. I would love for you to consider hiring me. Please note, for house sittings I am willing and prefer to stay at your house. I believe this helps reduce stress and anxiety. I aim to replicate the care and companionship you would give your fur baby. Available every day and any time, I typically have appointments in the afternoon. I take care of my 4 animals while my husband works and study herbalism in my free time. Whenever I take care of another pet I treat them as my own. With tons of pets and love! I will respect your home and leave it as I found it or better. I like to give dogs walk and play with them while I am visiting.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life. I’ve worked at pet stores and currently work at a Doggy Daycare and Boarding facility (Love Unleashed, St. Louis) while at university. I want to make pets feel the least amount of stress as possible, while their humans are away. I want to give them Love, Security, and Fun. For this Summer, I’m available after 6pm Monday -Thursday. And anytime Friday- Sunday until August 20th when I head back to University. I will be completely available for Pet sitting in the Lake County area during the winter holidays. Each situation is different so the amount of time spent with a pet will be dictated by the pet parent. Whatever your fur baby needs is what I will give them. If I am house sitting, I will respect your space and follow the rules and standards that you set. I will ensure fences are latched and leashes are secured. Each pet will have their individual needs met.
“Declan was fantastic with Maverick. He has helped his transition in a new home and spent time with him helping obtain good manners! Will continue to use Declan in the future for Maverick’s needs!!”
“Deanne provided daily drop-in dog walking for my 1 year old golden puppy, Daisy. Daisy is full of energy and can be a bit much but she always seemed happy when I got home from work after having a walk with Deanne. Deanne was always flexible with hours, often accomodating change in dog walking times as needed. She always sent photos of Daisy during or after the walks. I would highly recommend Deanne for her services!!”
About: I grew up with a sweet smooth collie and helped take care of her throughout my childhood. These days I take care of friends and families dogs while they go on vacation or just need a quick sitter for the day/night. I also have a pet chinchilla, Cheaches, that I take care of everyday :) I'm a elementary teacher, so my availability during the summer is very open. I plan to be home full time most days but things do come up. If I need to be away I will always prioritize coming back to care for the pets. I'm very comfortable with all dogs no matter the size or breed. I have handled a variety of dogs from timid to major explorers. Any instructions given to me I will happily follow. I have always had a easy time connecting with dogs! They are truly mans best friend and I understand just how much they mean to their families :)
About: I have been a Petco certified dog trainer since I was 18 and have dog/house sat many times since! I treat your dog like family and your home with respect! I am flexible! I am available Mondays and Thursdays all day. Saturdays I get off work at 2:00pm I work 9-5 during the rest of the days of the week. But I always need an excuse to use PTO so watching your fur baby won’t be problem! I just need a two week notice Quality time will be spent with your fur baby to make sure they keep busy. Plenty of playtime and mental stimulation. I love using puzzle toys, snuffles and other things to get a dogs mind working!
“Highly recommended A+++ Linnea was great with our little pup, on schedule and very kind to our family. Very down to earth warm hearted person that I would recommend to anyone! Thank you!!!”
About: I have all kinds of experience with all different animals! Dogs, cats, rats, lizards, hedgehogs you name it. I love ‘em all!! I have been dog walking since January 2022. I am currently working part time. So I have lot of free time during the evenings and weekends! Taking care of animals is always top priority to me! I promise to always put your fur baby first when he/she is in my care! Safety is a top priority to me and I’ll always make sure to keep a close eye on your pet. After all…they aren’t just just a pet…they are our family members!
About: I’ve had pets from hamsters to cats to dogs since I was under 10. Our family brought our first dog home in 2009. I loved training with her, caring for her, and just spending time with her and immediately fell in love with dogs. In 2013 we brought home our second family dog and I got to train with her and care for her just like I did for our first puppy. Both grew up to be such sweet amazing dogs and in 2020, my husband and I adopted our first puppy Axel. He is a high energy breed and was born with a hole in his heart- but that doesn’t stop him! We fostered Izzy in 2022, and Axel bonded with her so much as a sibling, we just couldn’t let her go! Izzy had heartworm and limes disease when she arrived from Kentucky, so she’s had quite a healing journey (especially at 10 years old!). I have experience with high energy dogs, elderly dogs, and administering medication for both. My love for dogs is deep rooted and I will always love getting the chance to make them happy! I recently graduated from my college certification course and will now also be available for evening time slots/ weekends in addition to my morning and daytime weekday openings. My care will depend on the needs of your pet- whether that means checking in to give snuggles and pets to your elderly cat or giving your pup a potty break and some play time while you’re at work! I have a great attention to detail and will follow instructions for your pet if provided!
About: I’ve fully cared for both cats and dogs and really enjoy spending time with animals. For cats, I’ve handled everything from feeding and litter box maintenance to socializing and keeping them active and comfortable. I’ve also cared for dogs by making sure they’re well-fed, taken on regular walks, and given plenty of attention and affection. Whether it’s playtime or basic care, I’m committed to making sure pets feel safe and loved. Pet care is part of my daily routine—I care for my two cats and previously helped with my roommate’s cat, handling feeding, cleaning, and playtime. I provide daily feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, cleaning and playtime, while ensuring a calm, safe, and comfortable environment tailored to each pet’s needs.
“Wally was a stellar dog Walker for my dog Milo! Wally kept us updated and went above and beyond on walk time and TLC, putting salve on Milo's paws after his walk. Milo is a tentative dog, it's clear that Wally won his trust. We will definitely be repeat customers!”
About: I have had/been around dogs from a young age. I love all kinds of dogs of all ages. I have even worked with blind dogs and lightly trained puppies.

I do not currently offer boarding but in my home I walk, feed and play with my dog daily. I also help my friends with their pets.
About: I have taken care of dogs & cats for over 20 years. Many of our friends & family have had me watch their fur babies when they are out of town or away at work.

“There is not much that can be said bad about Shay. My hard to deal with strong pup loves her. If we dont see Shay at least once a week my girl will mope. She gives each dog she interacts with their own time. Her training is spot on. If she can help train my baby she can train anything. She specialized her training to keep my girl engaged and happy as well as learning. She kept at it with me and helped me with my girl. Now we are Star Puppy CGC and working on CGCU and CGCC”
