Pet Sitting Smithton

“I highly recommend Desiree for pet care! She watched my dog, Luna, while I was away for the day and did a fantastic job. She was reliable, followed all feeding and walking instructions perfectly, and most importantly, Luna seemed very happy and well-cared for when I returned. If you are looking for someone trustworthy and attentive to look after your pets, Desiree is an excellent choice.”

“Kaylee does a great job following the guidance you give her for watching your pets. She did a great job communicating with me when she had questions. I have used her twice before and would hire her again.”

“Dani was very responsive. She provided my elderly cat with the medication that it needed on a daily basis. Being a first time user of a service providing drop-in visits, I was anxious at first. However, Dani took great care in documenting her visits and my home is in as good a condition now as when I left it.”

“Andy was absolutely exceptional. I booked him last minute, had no idea what I was doing lol! He came over for a meet and greet and immediately put me at ease. I was nervous leaving my dogs care with someone I didn’t know. He’s warm, knowledgeable, great with the dogs. He really listened to what I needed, what I was worried about and made sure I was comfortable every step of the way. My dogs are extra and he gave them the time and attention they deserved (and need)! He was thorough in communicating with me while away. My scheduled shifted and I had to reach out for a last minute session and he worked with me so well! Will definitely rebook his services and highly recommend. Thanks Andy!”

About: I’ve been pet sitting for about 4 years now and I love all animals! I can do puppies all the way to senior pets and I have no problem with any breeds! I also love reptiles and rodents if you have any in addition to dogs or cats, i’d happily do anything you need me to do for them! I am a college student at siue but I still have a super flexible schedule and i have a lot of free time to hang out with pets! i’ve grown up with pets all my life and even worked at a doggy daycare in my hometown so i’d love to be there for pets who don’t like daycares and prefer to stay in their own space. Also, weather doesn’t bother me so i’ll walk your pet in rain or shine!

“Jayne has been just amazing! She provided drop in service for our cat Bernice for a week and I could not imagine ever getting any better care. She came on a regular schedule every day, took care of all her needs and spent time playing with her. I received pictures and a Rover report after every visit. She even bought her new toys! Bernice and I were extremely happy with Jayne and would highly recommend her.”

About: Animals have always been a major part of my life from cats to dogs to toads, I love them all. Over the years I have always had indoor cats and dogs in my care that have ranged in age from newborn to senior, energetic to unwell and everything in between. When I’m not caring for my pets or others, I’m a work from home artist and volunteer at the humane society as a foster and dog walker. Take comforting in knowing I would treat your best friend right. Currently I work from home as an artist (predominantly pet portraits) and can set my own schedule leaving me with ample availability for bit time or day and days throughout the week. I have a three acre yard with a large fenced in area, my dogs are extremely friendly and there is lake access that my own dogs use for swimming very often

“Maria took care of my 3 dogs after a last minute booking. She was puntual, made sure to follow all requests and went above and beyond taking care ot them.”

“Dianne was awesome! Very communicative and helpful, and took great pictures of the cats each time she went to the house! 10/10 would recommend.”

“Having a total care senior dog can be extremely stressful when planning a trip out of town. My dogs used to be road trip champs but unfortunately due to old age and one handicap, they have to stay behind. From the moment Mason came for a meet and greet both dogs greeted him and were calm and happy in their presence. Masons confidence and willingness to care for my total care senior dog was a relief. I was able to go out of town for 5 days with a peace of mind knowing that they were not only well taken care of but happy as well. I highly recommend him for all your doggie needs.”

About: Animal lover with hands-on experience raising wildlife from a young age and a professional background as a veterinary technician. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all personalities, ages, and medical needs. What sets me apart is the calm, patient, and attentive care I provide — I treat every pet like family and focus on making them feel safe, loved, and stress-free while you’re away. Pet care naturally fits into my daily life as I’m currently home all day with a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give pets the attention, care, and companionship they deserve. I’ve raised wildlife from a young age and also have a background as a veterinary technician, so I’m comfortable with pets of all ages, personalities, and needs. My home provides a safe, calm, and loving atmosphere where pets are treated like family. I also currently volunteer at the humane society with my daughter, which reflects how important animal care and compassion are in our everyday lives. I have a fully fenced backyard, plenty of dog toys and treats, and provide a safe, loving environment for pets. We currently do two walks a day with our pup, River, so daily exercise and attention are already part of our routine. We also have two dog-friendly cats that are comfortable around other animals.

About: Hi, I'm Jo! I worked in doggy daycare and boarding for 2 years, and I have received pet-specific CPR and first aid training. I've administered oral, topical, and injected medication to dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I love all dogs (and cats!) and would love to get to know your fur babies! I'm a traveling artist and musician with a very flexible schedule - whenever you need me is when I can be there! I update my location regularly. I have done a lot of petsitting in other people's homes, and I can assure you that you'll never know I was there (aside from a happy, tired-out pup!). Unfortunately, my current living space does not work well for boarding.

About: I have had a lifelong passion for animals and extensive hands-on experience caring for many different types. Growing up, I helped rescue animals and learned the importance of patience, compassion, and responsible care. I’ve owned and cared for a wide variety of animals ranging from chickens to horses, which gave me experience with different needs, temperaments, and daily routines. My love for animals also led me to participate in 4-H and FFA, where I continued developing my animal care skills and knowledge. Over the years, I’ve cared for multiple dog breeds including a pitbull, shih tzu, poodle, husky, and German shepherd, and I currently have two miniature goldendoodles that I walk and care for every day. Through these experiences, I’ve become very comfortable working with animals of all sizes and personalities, and I truly enjoy providing them with attentive, loving, and reliable care. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine and availability. I work evenings at my other job, which allows me to provide pet care services during the morning and afternoon. This flexible schedule makes it easy for me to walk, feed, and check in on animals one to three times per day as needed. I also have Thursdays off and most weekends available, giving me even more time to dedicate to longer walks, playtime, and consistent care. Because I already walk my own dogs daily, incorporating additional pets into my routine is something I am comfortable with, and I am committed to providing reliable, attentive care that fits each animal’s individual needs. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, comfortable environment with plenty of toys and space for them to play and stay active. I make sure they receive lots of attention, regular potty breaks, fresh water, and follow any feeding or care routines provided. When caring for pets in your home, I focus on keeping them comfortable in their familiar environment by playing with them, giving them plenty of attention, and maintaining their normal routine. I also make sure they are cleaned up well, have fresh water at all times, and that their space is kept tidy so they feel happy, safe, and well cared for.

“Finn was amazing. Our dog can be scared around new ppl, and they showed her the love she needed to warm up to them! I would definitely hire them again!”

“This was our first time using Rover and we are VERY pleased with Julia! We met so she could meet our dogs and we were impressed. We had her scheduled for 2 drop ins and she did a great job! She was very sweet to our pups and did everything we asked her to do. She communicated well with pictures and notes and sent a text if she had any questions. We will definitely be using her again!”
