Cat Sitting in Sylvan Lake

“Shawna was fantastic and very responsive. She put our minds at ease leaving our kitties behind. She was extremely caring and we could not be happier with the care and communication she provided! Will book again!”

Kevin E.

“Kati was amazing! We have never left our dog before and she made us feel so comfortable doing so. We would definitely use her again in the future! Thank you Kati!!”

Ashley T.

“Mallory takes great care of Sasha and Sasha lives her walks and play with Mallory. We try to use her every time we aren’t able to take care of Sasha ourselves. She is great.”

Susan M.

“Another worry-free trip with Kayla taking care of our cat. She always does a great job. Very reliable, goes above and beyond, great communication and fun pictures. It’s nice to travel and know he is in good hands. I highly recommend Kayla for your pet sitter.”

Susan S.

“Christina did such a great job taking care of our cat, Sox. It's clear that she is very knowledgeable about animal behavior, and it allowed us to have a worry-free trip. I especially enjoyed her clever and informative updates, the pictures she sent at each visit, and the fun video of Sox at play. He was happy to see us when we returned, and he showed no evidence of stress whatsoever. Christina proved to be very reliable, and I would not hesitate to ask her to check in on Sox the next time we're away!”

“Haley gets my shy kitties to come out of hiding for love! Animals can’t tell when people are good!”

About: I am a retired high school educator, artist, outdoor enthusiast, and animal lover. I am a five-star walker and a very reliable and compassionate caregiver for your pet. I often feel we are kindred spirits and I am totally intrigued by their individual personalities. I have cared for dogs both personally or professionally for most of my life and willingly care for your pet and their individual needs. Whether it be exploring adventure, padding the neighborhood (walking or running), gifting belly rubs, or providing hydration & nutrition, your pet’s needs will be personalized while in my care with much love and affection. In the future, I hope to rehabilitate dogs and work with their family members to provide a safe space filled with discipline, affection, and a true sense of belonging. You can depend on me and trust that your pet will feel cherished and loved while in my care. Since retiring from teaching, my hours of 1:1 attention have expanded. I am now available to give full weekday hours to your pet in addition to my time during weekends. While caring for pets in parks and neighborhoods, I keep them on a leash during all walks and runs. If we are lounging in the yard I provide the dog an opportunity to relax on a lead while I am outdoors with them. For owners who allow their dogs to visit Lakewood Dog Park’s expansive exercise area, I monitor those dogs while they run and play off leash under my constant supervision. While indoors, I follow the rules that my pet owners prefer whether it be cuddling on furniture and slumbering in bed with me or crating them within their cozy caves with their favorite snuggle toy. I do everything I can to mirror the eating, playing, and napping comfort with the same positive experiences your pet receives in your living home while throwing in a little extra spoiling 🐶❤️🐶

“Becca was an excellent sitter — reliable, communicative, and great with our pup. I appreciated the updates and photos while we were away. Highly recommend and would absolutely book again!”

Taryn W.

“Katerina was great with our cat. She arrived every day on time and always sent a picture! She was even able to give Tony his transdermal medication which can be a real pain. I would certainly book her again.”

Jeff L.

“Hannah cared our kitty Edison for 21 days while we were on vacation. Hannah is such a natural with cats and Edison got comfortable with her from day one. The regular photos and videos with Edison she shared with us made our vacation more fun and less worried. We will definitely ask for her help again next time.”

Stewart S.

“Dayna is fantastic. My dogs really liked her. She was extremely flexible as my plans changed several times. She sent lots of pictures and let me know what was happening with my fur babies every step of the way. I will definitely trust my babies with her in the near future. Highly recommend her.”

Chris R.

“Ling is wonderful with my rescue bull terrier, Sally, who is learning the ropes of leash walking & behaving. She has been very patient & calm with Sally.”

About: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Truly Exceptional Dog Walker & Canine Caregiver Jeanine is an outstanding choice for anyone seeking a reliable, experienced, and deeply compassionate dog walker. With years of hands‑on experience as a skilled dog handler, she brings a level of professionalism and calm confidence that immediately puts both pets and owners at ease. Her background includes working with Lutheran Church Charities Comfort Dogs, where she gained extensive experience handling well‑trained, emotionally intuitive dogs in a variety of environments. She has also worked personally with multiple professional canine trainers, giving her a strong understanding of dog behavior, training principles, and safe handling techniques. Jeanine doesn’t just care for dogs—she genuinely loves them. She approaches every dog with patience, gentleness, and respect, treating each one as if they were her own. Whether it’s a leisurely walk, a high‑energy outing, or simply providing comfort and companionship, she is attentive, responsible, and fully present. Pet parents can trust that their dog will be safe, happy, and well‑cared‑for in her hands. Her combination of experience, intuition, and heartfelt love for animals makes her an exceptional choice for anyone looking for a dependable walker or caregiver. If you want someone who will show up with professionalism, kindness, and true dedication to your dog’s well‑being, Jeanine is the one you want. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I have a very flexible schedule. I’m available throughout the day and early evening, and I build my commitments around the needs of the pets I care for. Whether a dog needs a consistent daily walk, occasional drop‑ins, or extra time and attention, I’m able to adjust accordingly. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so making space for it in my routine is simple and life‑giving. Caring for pets—whether in my home or a client’s—is always hands‑on, attentive, and rooted in genuine love for the canine. My own dog is my “fur child,” so I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, seen, and included. At home, we play ball, go for walks, I home‑cook her meals, groom her, and she sleeps right beside me. She’s part of my daily life and activities. That same level of care, intuition, and presence carries into every client’s home. I respect each dog’s routine, personality, and comfort level, and I make sure they feel secure and cared for. Whether it’s following feeding instructions, maintaining training habits, or simply offering companionship and affection, I provide a calm, trustworthy environment where pets can relax and thrive. My goal is always to treat your dog with the same love and attentiveness I give my own.

About: I’ve taken care of a variety of dogs since I was little and have loved every second. I was always helping out my family’s and neighbor’s pets - and now I finally got my own puppy in August of 2025. Trained him all on my own and he is the sweetest boy! I work at a kindergarten with special education during the school year. Once June hits, I will be officially out for summer break and plan on focusing all my attention on Rover. I will have all the time on my hands to drop in and take care of your pets! My 10 month old dachshund is very well taken care of. He is my pride and joy - always getting all the cuddles and exercise he needs. I believe that all pets require the same love and attention that humans do and I treat them with that idea in mind.

About: I am a 7 year experienced veterinary technician who has worked primarily with small animals in multiple practices across the United States. I am currently enrolled in veterinary medical school pursuing my doctorate at UIUC in their college of veterinary medicine. In addition, I am a life-long pet owner myself! I grew up with dogs in a variety of sizes, as well as cats. As a veterinary student, I have classes in the morning and sometimes afternoon. This should not be a concern as I still have plenty of time to watch pets! I care for pets in the owners home! As a veterinary student, I am living in an apartment which is not always the appropriate place for watching certain large-sized dogs. I also have a cat of my own who is terrified of dogs!

“Ally is AMAZING!!!! She is so empathetic, caring and responsible! She took care of my blind, diabetic dog, Rex, who is an old guy with lots of anxiety. This was my first time leaving him with a sitter, I was worried as he is a dog with special needs, and can also be a bit agressive with strangers. Ally made me feel very comfortable, she was so understanding of his behavior (and my own anxiety). She was so responsive and so easy to work with. She came to meet Rex before-hand and even got on a call with me since I am an overprotective dog-mom and was very nervous leaving Rex with someone for the first time. Rex also loved her right away as dogs recognize good people. I feel so happy and lucky that I found Ally!! Also, she is always on time! I definitely recommend Ally as a care taker for your pet, your baby will be in good hands!”

About: “Dog fever” doesn’t even begin to cover it — my girlfriend and I are counting down the days until we can bring home a new puppy. I’m the kind of person who can’t pass a dog on the street without stopping to say hello, so you can imagine how excited I get around animals. I’m a private contractor working remotely with a very flexible schedule. I can shift my day to day schedule and adapt to most needs you may have. I am a very attentive person with patience and much affection. I hope to keep your pets routine consistent & stress-free with exercise, playtime, or just extra attention.

“Thank you so much Christopher. I can totally picture the excitement they must of had when they saw you. They're good boys with a lot of love and energy. I'm glad they could share some with you. They'll be happy to see you again in the future. Have a great weekend.”

“Anna was just wonderful! She came for drop-in visits and looked after my dog and cat while we were gone for 8 days. I looked forward to seeing the photos of my sweet dog on his walks and I couldn’t believe my extremely shy cat made appearances for photos, too! We were relaxed on our vacation knowing our pets were well looked after. Thank you so very much, Anna!”
