House Sitting in Schneider

“Hannah was great with our 10 week old puppy, Bear! She has lots of pet experience, so I felt confident leaving my puppy for the first time with her. Bear was a happy boy when we got home. Bear and I would love to have Hannah watch him again!”

About: I’ve taken care of many types of animals growing up from horses to cat and dogs. I’m very confident in walking any dog any size, since in my school we’ve learned to adjust and adapt on animals behavior. I also can do any grooming needed (nails, brush teeth, bathe) if you can’t or too wary. I’ve also have well experience in cats. Ive owned cats since I was 15 so if needed I can also do any grooming needs as well. With senior dogs I know they may be more work than a normal dog but I’m up to the task without a second thought! I’ve had much experience with senior dogs. I understand that having animal comes with time management and that’s where I can help! I am current in vet tech school so I have the weekends available and Friday after 4:30pm. I am also willing to go after school mon-Friday after 4:30pm. For the animals in my house they get treated just like a member of the family! I make sure my cat and dog are always content, I take my dog out on daily walks and ensure my cat gets his daily play time. For the animals of your home they will be treated just the same.

“Our Micki took to Kimberly right away. Our dog can always recognize a fellow dog lover. We received many photos and videos while we were away, which made us feel really good. When we got home, Micki was happy and tired from having so much fun. Thank you Kimberly for treating our dog like the queen she is.”

About: I have watched dogs and cats both long term and short term since 2018. From my parents’ pets for a day, to a 4 months house and pet-sitting arrangement in California I have had good experiences caring for animals. I take their care as seriously as I would my own pet, but respect the rules and routines set up by the pet parents. I am currently unemployed outside of this, so I have tons of availability and time to focus on YOUR pets and their needs. I can spend as much or as little time with them as needed. I care for pets based on the instructions of their normal care takers, while focusing on basic care and schedule. It’s important to me that pets feel safe and their routine is not disturbed too much. If allows, I also like to give plenty of pets and cuddles to any animals that’s accept it.

“It was such a wonderful feeling coming home and seeing how well not just my pups, but also my home was taken care of. Highly recommend Heather for peace of mind and will definitely use again.”

“Being a first time dog owner and needing someone to watch Taylor was a bit nerve wrecking for me but I was easily calmed when we met ahead of time and saw how much Taylor enjoyed you. Thank you for caring for her like she was your own. I have no doubt we’ll be seeing you again in our future needs. Thank you!”

About: I’ve lived with and cared for dog my whole life, from labs, Great Pyreneeses, mutts, and others in between! I have supported my hometown neighbors with caring for their animals, whether that’s by walking, feeding, bathing, administering medication - I’m comfortable with it all. Over the past 7 years I have been a mom to two cats and have helped friends and family care for their felines. I truly believe our pets are family to us and I treat all animals with all the love and care they deserve 🤍 I’m currently working part time, so I have flexibility in my schedule to help care for your furry friends! I currently reside in Northwest Indiana and work on the southside of Chicago on Thursdays and Fridays, but if you are needing my services I’m open to discussing how I can meet your scheduling needs 😊 I am not currently offering care for animals in my home due to my two year old cat who has not quite yet met other animals. However I am more capable of caring for your pets in the comfort of their own home.

“Trinity kept up fully up to date with pictures and took such great care of our fur baby! Gave extra snuggles when our puppers got anxious after we had been gone for a few days but in every picture Rora looked relaxed and happy!”

About: I’ve grown up with animals my whole life, I was actually raised on a farm! We spent mornings caring for the horses, chickens, pigs, etc. We’ve always had dogs in the home, and in my eyes, pets are just an extension to the family! I have experience with reptiles, birds (I have a cockatiel named Mila), and other exotics as well. I work Monday-Friday 9a-5p. I’m available all day on the weekends. During the week, I’m available early mornings before I head to the office, and anytime after 5pm. My pets are my children, and I will treat yours with the same amount of love, play, and attention that they deserve! While I’m not an experienced trainer, I strongly believe that any training you have in place should be respected, and upheld while you’re away. With direction, I would be happy to do just that!

About: Hi, I’m Lemy — a lifelong dog lover and dedicated sitter who treats every pup like family. I’ve been caring for dogs since I was a child. Growing up, I was the go-to pet sitter for neighbors, friends, and family. Whether it was walking, feeding, playing, or just giving some extra cuddles, I was always happiest when I was around dogs. Over the years, that early experience grew into a deep understanding of dog behavior, needs, and personalities. I’ve looked after everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra care and patience. No matter the breed or temperament, I adjust to each dog’s unique routine and comfort level. Dog sitting isn’t just a job for me — it’s something I truly love. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet behind, which is why I make it my mission to give every dog the love, attention, and care they deserve while you’re away. I offer a safe, clean, and cozy environment where your dog can feel right at home. With me, you can expect timely communication, daily photo/video updates, and complete peace of mind knowing your fur baby is in caring hands. Let’s make your pup’s tail wag with joy — I’d love to be their second best friend (after you, of course)! 🐶💛 My days and time that work best for me is Thursday-Saturday anytime. And Sunday-Wednesday 6:30 to 11 pm. Those are the best days and time for me but changes can be made Whether I’m caring for your dog in my home or yours, their safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I provide a clean, cozy space and follow your pet’s routine closely — from walks and meals to playtime and cuddles. I always stay attentive, keep you updated, and treat every dog like family. Your pup is in loving, reliable hands with me!

“I am so grateful that we found Cindy to watch our 3 pets. Our dog is 9 years old and this was the first time we left her with anyone besides my son. As soon as we met Cindy, I knew she would take good care of them. We received updates while we were gone and everything ran very smoothly. If we go on any other trips, I hope Cindy will be available to watch our animals. Thank you!!”
