About: I am good with cats, dogs and guinea pigs. I can clean out litter boxes, change bedding for guinea pigs and also have extensive experience in caring for a guinea pig's special needs. I’m currently working Mon-Thurs from 8:15am-4:30pm and Friday from 8:15am-12:30pm and I get an hour lunch! So if you ever need me to check in on your fur babies, I can do that! And I can still stay overnight if needed! I will follow instructions how to care for your animals in your home. This can include baths, walks, potty breaks, play time and feeding times.

About: I have taken care of pets since I was a child. I have predominantly had dogs and cats. I treat all animals with the utmost love and care. I have had pets through full life cycle so I understand the varying needs based on age. I currently work full time but am off Friday through Sunday so looking for people that need weekend help. I would also be a le to do some evenings during the week. I have a fenced yard and work from home so my dogs are well taken care of. I have the ability to watch, play with, walk and feed animals in your home. I would gladly follow any routine and instructions you have.

About: I bring a unique blend of patience, attentiveness, and genuine love for animals that helps me quickly build trust with both pets and their people. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality and needs whether that means keeping a playful pup busy or making sure a senior dog feels safe and comfortable. Here’s a bit about my experience: • Puppy care, leash walking, and reinforcing basic commands • Senior dogs, with gentle handling, slower-paced walks, and medication routines • Special needs pets, providing calm, detail-oriented care • Administering medications (oral, topical, and injectable) • Multi-pet households, managing dynamics so everyone gets love and attention I always prioritize communication I’ll send regular updates and photos so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. I truly treat every animal as if they were my own, creating a calm and loving environment while you’re away. I’m planning to transition out of my hourly job and become a full-time sitter while in school. Balancing classes and work can be a lot, but pet care has always been something that brings me joy and helps me decompress. I carefully plan my schedule to make sure I’m fully present and attentive with every pet I care for. Whether it’s early mornings, evenings, or weekends, I’m committed to providing consistent, loving, and reliable care that fits both your pet’s needs and my routine. I focus on creating a calm, safe, and engaging environment that matches each pet’s routine and comfort level. In my home, I keep things clean, pet-proofed, and stocked with toys, cozy spaces, and outdoor access for breaks and playtime. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions closely feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any specific habits or routines. I make sure pets feel secure and loved, whether they’re in familiar surroundings or visiting mine.

About: I’ve always grown up around dogs, cats, chickens, ducks, and etc. A dog is more than just an animal, they are a part of the family. Im a dental assistant and love helping people achieve the confidence to smile again. Im 22 years old and still live with my parents so this is a great side hustle to save money to move out eventually. At home we have a basset hound named Maggie that’s three years old, an Australian Shepard named Ranger that is also three years old, a Yorkie Shih Tzu named Trixie that is about 15 years old (yeah I know she’s basically deaf and blind but old girl is still kicking it), and then two cats that we rescued on the side of the road named Stormi & Klondike! I also have chickens & ducks! Let me dogsit your fur baby 🥰 I’m currently working at a private dental office located in Staunton, IL Monday-Thursday. Usually when I dog sit for a family friend or just anyone in general I stay at their house with the dog(s) so they feel comfortable in their own environment. My work hours are as followed; Monday & Thursday: 7-4pm (lunch 12-1pm) Tuesday 8-6pm (lunch 1-2 or 2-3pm) and Wednesday 7-1pm. I am a reliable and a caring person to watch your fur babies! I usually stay at the clients house so the pet is in a familiar environment and won’t get over stimulated. Every dog is different and so I usually meet the clients and/or the dog(s) so they are somewhat familiar with me and aren’t frightened by a stranger while their loved ones are away.

“From what I can tell Kristin did an excellent job with Peeka! I say “From what I can tell” jokingly. There were so few things moved or touched that it made it impossible to tell she had even been there! In the future, and there will definitely be more, im going to have to tell her to be comfortable! I very highly recommend Kristin and look forward to having her take care of my baby again! Thanks!”

About: I have worked with animals my entire life. I grew up on a farm with cows, chickens, pigs, cats and dogs. It comes naturally to me. I work in the early morning so I am done with that job by early afternoon. I have flexibility and will let you know if there is any available time. I have a kind and gentle daughter who loves all animals, a sweet corgi and 2 lovely adopted cats. In my home. I have an indoor fence and kennel and 2 separate cat only(no dog allowed) rooms

“Gabbi did an amazing job with my dog while I was out of town for a few days. I highly recommend her for any of your pet sitting needs!”

About: I like to take care of dogs. I take care of my cousins dogs I only really prefer to take care of dogs. Labrado retrieves I can let dogs out before work. After work and I can stay all night. I can house sit and dog sit on weekends. Too. I trust my cousins gps collars and their fence. I prefer to watch dogs at your home not mine but will do whatever is better

About: I’ve had animals in my family my whole life! I have two doggies of my own. Beans and Kona. I have watched a lot of other people’s animals throughout my life. Animals are the best thing in this world! Without them life would not be as fun. I have open availability for the most part. I own my own business and thought this would be a fun side job! I’m very responsible and dependable. I am able to watch pets for short or long amounts of time! Pet care is an essential part of my daily routine. Each morning, I feed my pets and take them for a walk. Throughout the week, I schedule playtime and grooming sessions, ensuring they stay healthy and happy. Their well-being adds joy and structure to my day-to-day life. I try to stick to their normal routines! I always feel like dogs have a less stressful time when we stick to the stuff they know. If there is something specific you need, I can accommodate!

“Kyleen is the best! We only ever pick her to watch our Sadie girl because of her attention to detail, snuggles, kindness, and her going above and beyond. You can depend on Kyleen!”

“We (including Steeler) love Jenee. Steeler is a needy little poodle and she does wonderful with him. We would highly recommend her for the care of any pet.”

About: Hi my name is Amanda!:) I currently work as the main shelter attendant in the cat room at a local animal shelter and petsit on the side! My work schedule is pretty open/flexible and I’m always able to work around it and fit stuff into my schedule, which makes for plenty of time to help take care of your pets!:) In high school, I was President of a Animal Rescue Club for two years where we did tons of volunteer work for animal shelters and put together fundraisers to help with local shelters. Between working at a shelter now, I also used to work at a pet kennel resort which gave me tons of experience in the animal care field. I have been petsitting on the side for about 9 years now, ever since I was a freshman in high school, starting off with just family and friends until word got around and some people I knew from volunteering at local shelters started telling clients and from there my little “business” skyrocketed! I am experienced with all kinds of animals (dogs, cats, hamsters, guniea pigs, birds, bunnies, reptiles, horses, etc…you name it!) I’m also experienced in administering medicine (even to hamsters lol!) At home, I currently have 3 cats (two with disabilities) as well as foster kitties so I always have animals coming in and out of my house! My schedule is very open/flexible and I’m able to work around my work schedule well so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets!:) You can completely trust that your pet(s) will be safe in my care! Whatever the owner/pet needs I will do! Feed, water, play, walk, etc… I am even experienced in administrating medication if needed! My schedule is pretty open and flexible. And if you knew me on a personal level you would know I’m always able to work around even the busiest schedule if needed! I’m always able to fit in the perfect amount of time to care for your pets and will make sure they are happy and their needs are fulfilled but they are also ready for a nap when I leave ;) I have experience with all animals and dogs of all breeds and sizes! So you can trust that I am a good fit and am able to handle your pet(s) no matter what size or breed they are!

About: Hi! My name is Meghan. I have 6 years of experience in caring for over sixteen animals at one time, including cats, dogs, and larger four-legged animals. Care included administering medication, feeding, monitoring the health of all animals, ensuring all animals received adequate daily exercise, and overnight house sitting. I also have experience in caring for dogs and cats of family and friends. I'm currently working part-time so my schedule is fairly flexible. On the days that I work, I am available after either 11:45 or 3:05, depending on whether I work a half day or a full day. My weekend availability will vary depending on my schedule. Prior to providing care for your pet, I feel it is important to meet with you to understand your pet's behavior, needs, and any specific concerns you may have. I will make sure your pet receives plenty of love and affection, play time, and rest time.

About: I’ve always had dogs growing up. I frequently took care of neighbors or family friends animals while they were on trips. I have 1 cat and 1 dog. I work in the social services industry so patience is something I specialize in😂 My dog is deaf and had very little training when me and husband rescued him. Now, he is amazing and our daughter loves him. My daughter loves animals of all kinds so we would love to meet any fur babies we can😊 I work full time during the day, Monday through Friday. I frequently go home for lunch to care of my own animals and evenings I am home. I have an open yard with lots of space for running. I have a dog and cat that are good with other animals and children.

About: I’ve had pets since I was born. I take care of several of my friends, neighbors, ext. I walk, let out, and play with pets. I have experience with puppies, kittens, small and large dogs. I would be able to do whatever you need given an early notice. I could make time for your pets, they are my priority during this time. I have a fenced in yard, have plenty of area for them to play. I give them enough food and keep watering them whenever they run out during the hot times.
