“I haven’t had to leave my cats for more than a weekend in years so I was a bit nervous! But Declan was fabulous - I loved the daily updates and found that I was looking forward to the pictures every day that I was gone! And on a pet level, Declan managed to befriend my most skeptical cat, and even expand the group of people whose lap she will voluntarily sit on to a whopping three people. So, he definitely passed the vibe check! The other cat at one point attempted to go home with him, lol. Declan was super communicative and definitely made it a lot easier to not worry about the cats, will definitely book him again when needed!”

“Amanda is a fantastic sitter who really cares for your pets! She followed all of my instructions and I knew I could trust her from day one! She was very understanding when my cat was shy and she gave him space and let him get used to her on his own accord!”
“She worked with me very well for a last minute job, was professional and polite. She took photos to keep me assured that everything was going well, and everything in my apartment looked exactly as I left it when I returned. Very good choice, and wonderful price. I had peace of mind while gone.”
About: I have the freedom to go anywhere needed with the ability to drive. I can also take care of the pets special needs such as giving medicine. I enjoy walking and playing. My little dog has a big dog attitude, so when she gets aggressive I know how to handle her, and keep a safe distance not letting anyone get hurt. I can take care of pets anytime of the week when needed, though I do have an online college class Monday through Thursday that's from 1-3:50pm. I can take it anywhere since I have a laptop and tablet to work with. I will have that schedule until June 26th. I have a fenced in backyard, and a small dog that goes through the doggy door. I am always available to open the door to let your pet out at anytime. I walk my dog around the neighborhood 3 or more times around the week at least.
About: First, I love all animals. I foster for the local shelter and a local rescue and have 3 dogs and 4 cats of my own. I’d love to care for your fur babes so you can have peace of mind while you are away. My husband and I are empty-nesters and my work schedule can be flexible most days. I can swing by before and after work and once mid day as needed. Or before bed. I will follow all instructions the client gives for caring for their pet in their home. They know them best and what their needs are.
“Sophia was very good with the cats; I could tell by the pictures that she sent. They were friendly to her when they met her. Usually they are more aloof with new people they meet. Sophia took care of all the things we asked of her. I got a really good vibe from her and felt that my babies would be well cared for. I would recommend her, and we would hire her again.”
About: I started taking care of animals at 7, when I got into horse riding. I have been riding ever since! We got our first dog in 2018 from the shelter, and now we have a senior dog who needs special attention. I volunteer with Action for Animals and take care of kitties who are up for adoption! My family and friends have trusted me to care for their pets for years. I have experience caring for anxious pets and those who take medication. I work part time, 3-4 days per week currently. I can make my own schedule at work so I can be flexible for longer stays. I am moving back to Bloomington for school on August 18. I am more than happy to meet up or FaceTime before starting. I will send updates and pictures often. My top priority is keeping your pet safe!

“Noah was amazing! I had to go out of state to visit family and I had Noah watch my dog and cat for two days. Noah let me know before he arrived at my house and created a card for every time they were at my house. Noah included pictures and updates of my animals each visit! I had a problem with my security system and it resulted in the alarm going off while Noah was there. Noah was really calm and collected during all of it and was a great help! I definitely recommend Noah!”

About: I have pet sit for many years. I love meeting new animals. I enjoy pet sitting because as a social worker I am able to come home to an animal and sent time with them. Animals are the way I cope. I have plenty of time to play with animals in the evenings and weekends. My schedule is very open for this and I am excited to have this opportunity I will ensure to keep everything the way I found it or even better. I know animals do best in their own environment so I have no problem being in other peoples homes. I show respect.
