About: My favorite pets are cats! I love to take care of them and your cat will be well taken care of. ❤️ My schedule is flexible and I can accommodate any schedule.

They have plenty of toys and they enjoy watching cat TV on YouTube.
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 have dog sat for family friends several times and stayed over at their houses while doing so. I have a dog of my own and I trained her when she was a puppy. I have worked with different sizes of dogs and different levels of obedience. I am currently a college student so my hours will differ depending on the day, but I know that I have have time to fit pet care into my schedule. I am after 12pm on Tuesdays and after 2pm on Thursdays. The remaining days of the week I am pretty much free almost any time during the day. I find that even though my schedule is a little weird that may be beneficial as I can provide pet care at a variety of times. I care for pets in the way that they need to be cared for. I check on them often, make sure they are not anxious, as well as ensure they are getting plenty of exercise. If I am in a clients home I ensure the space is kept clean and the pet is happy and healthy.
About: I have had many pets of my own ever since I could remember. I’ve always had a deep love for animals and a natural ability to care for them with kindness and compassion. Whether it’s cuddles, playtime, or just making sure they feel safe and happy, I treat every animal like family. I am currently an SIUE student. On Mondays and Wednesdays, I have classes from 11-2. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I have classes from 8-3. And on Fridays, I have classes from 11-12. Saturdays and Sundays are my free days. You can always contact me for scheduling! Whether it's daily walks, feeding, playtime, or just keeping your pet company, I adjust my care to fit their individual needs and make sure they feel loved and comfortable.
