House Sitting Truesdell

“Ali was fantastic with our dog! She was incredibly attentive to his needs, did everything we asked, and the house was just as we left it upon our return home. We’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for an overnight sitter!”

“I booked with Aixa last minute and she showed up for us. She came for a meet and greet with our fur babies and took care of them and our home overnight. She is very sweet and loved on the babies like her own. I will definitely be a repeat client.”

“We were so thankful to find Michelle on Rover. She was courteous, warm and professional in her communications and gave us a lot of ease about leaving our pup and our home in her care. She was great about giving updates and sending photos while we were away. We returned to a well-kept home and a happy pup! We highly recommend Michelle!”

About: For the past 4 years, I’ve been the go to pet sitter for friends, family, and neighbors. I am an honest and hard worker and I provide good communication with my clients. I am a student at parkside with one year left until I graduate. With my schedule, I am able to pet sit during the day and overnight on weekdays and I’m fully available on weekends. When I’m pet sitting in a clients home, I spend the majority of my day there playing with and taking care of the pets. I put the pet’s needs first and maintain good communication with the owners to ensure their pet is taken care of properly. I treat the home with respect and ensure the owners of the home know my schedule so there are no surprises while I’m watching their pets.

“Samantha was great! We will definitely have her back. She cared so much for our doggie, sent regular updates, and asked important questions. She took care of our home as well by watering my flowers and keeping it spotless for when we returned. She was very accommodating when we had a family emergency and cancelled one of the pets that she was supposed to watch. I was overall very impressed!”

About: Whether your pup enjoys long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply relaxing with someone nearby, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. My goal is to provide a calm, loving environment where your pet receives plenty of attention, affection, and exercise. I am retired so have plenty of time to play with and walk your fur babies as much as needed. I can play with your dog in our fenced in yard or walk them on the Bike Trail, which is just a block away from our home. I’ll tailor my care to each dog’s individual personality and routine. I know how important consistency is, so I’ll follow your feeding schedule, medication instructions, exercise needs, and any special requests. I like to text or email regular photo updates and messages so you can relax knowing they’re having a great time, communication is just as important as great pet care.

About: I have had animals my whole life, mostly dogs. I recently was able to get my own dog for the first time as an adult. To say I spoil Burt is an understatement. We go on great adventures to the dog park, hikes and out to dog friendly restaurants. I am completely obsessed with all fur babies and will take care of yours like it was mine. Very safety orientated. I am a flight attendant currently working part time, so when I am home... I am home with lots of free time. I have recently reduced my schedule because the skies are not so friendly at the moment. I would like to supplement my income with helping others and their fur babies. I have a smaller condo which might not be condusive for larger dogs, but if they come over here we always get out for walks and dog park time.

About: I am available daily and would be delighted to assist you with walking or caring for your animals. I possess over a decade of pet care experience and hold a background in animal care through the 4-H program. I am passionate about all types of animals, regardless of their size or species! I personally have five furry companions, so I deeply understand the significance they hold for you. I have had the opportunity to observe and care for a diverse range of animals, so if you have any further inquiries about my qualifications or my approach to animal care, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you for considering my services for your animals and home. I am eager to assist you with any needs you may have. Currently employed as a teacher at a local school, I am fortunate to have ample free time during the weekends, as my work schedule does not include Fridays through Sunday. This allows me to fully utilize my time and resources. I’m available for early morning visits before school and after school care as well after 0330pm! Additionally, I reside in a spacious house with a large backyard, providing ample space for any animal needs. Furthermore, I have received extensive training in animal care! At your home I can make sure your animals are leashed and properly walked to assure they come back safely every time I visit! I can provide a safe crate technique if need be and companionship before leaving your home!

About: I grew up with dogs and they are my favorite animal. I take great care and pride in proving the needs of my pets. I’ve watched my brothers dog several times for weeks at a time while he travels, and she’s happy to come back every time I’m awake at night, so I might as well be awake with your dog! I absolutely love dogs. It is my duty to befriend any and every dog I ever come across in my life. Cats are pretty cool but I’m allergic. Some dogs basically get all the love I can provide. I’m a nightshifter who likes exercise so I can walk your dogs as much as they need. I love spending time with animals and thought this could be a great way to earn extra cash I have cameras on the property but no fences. I’m available to take the dogs for any amount of walks so they can get their excercise. I leave my doors locked and only gave a spare key to certain family members

About: I’ve spent a majority of my life around animals. Growing up, we had a variety in the house (dogs, cats, fish, squirrels). I’ve learned that being calm, loving, and patient is the key to dealing with any pet. Like people, pets have their own quirks and personalities that is an absolute joy to learn about! I currently assist my sister with her two boys. Now that they are both in school, my schedule is much more open. I help get them to school early in the morning, and help pick them up in the afternoon. I have no problem helping with specialty pet needs and care, whether that be crating, medications, or assisted devices. Your pets are in great hands :)

About: Hi! I’m a veteran with a few years of animal care experience, and I’m currently pursuing a degree in animal sciences with a focus on animal health and behavior. Caring for animals is an important part of my life, and I’m excited to continue building my knowledge through both school and hands-on experience. My goal is to provide thoughtful, dependable care while helping your pet feel safe and comfortable when you’re away. I understand that every animal has their own personality and needs, and I’m happy to follow your pet’s routine and care instructions to give them individualized attention. Whether your pet enjoys active playtime or prefers quiet companionship, I’d love to get to know them and help you feel confident about their care! I’m an active person and a dog owner myself, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your pets. I’m also a veteran, currently working from home while pursuing my degree full-time in animal sciences, with a focus on animal health and behavior. With a few years of animal care experience, I’m passionate about providing attentive, personalized care to every pet I meet. I have two dogs that are small and very polite. They are both neutered and spayed. For them the more the merrier. I couldn’t agree more. Your pets stay will be comfortable and active. I promise to make sure they are well taken care of and get lots of love and sunshine in their day

“We were extremely pleased with the diligent care Monica provided for our 4-year-old Miniature Australian Shepherd. She did an excellent job not only watching Jaco, but also taking great care of our home while we were away. It gave us real peace of mind knowing everything was in such good hands. We would absolutely use Monica again and highly recommend her to others.”

“Heidi was truly amazing… She really took great care of my little guy while he was in recovery after an unexpected surgery. She kept me in the loop on everything that was happening and really helped keep my mind at ease when I was unable to be there. Very grateful to have found her, and will definitely use again in the future.”

“We’ve had Tanya watch our dog multiple times for overnights and she’s great! She sends updates each day and always takes great pictures. We will definitely continue to use her”

About: Have administered specialized medicine to senior animals for ongoing diseases such as kidney disease and hyperthyroidism. Was very diligent nursing my senior kitty before he passed. I work and go to school so my schedule varies but I always have some nights and mornings free each week that I would love to use on animals. Constant Care policy: if you are needing constant care that would require me to not leave for more than 4 hours, please book atleast 2 weeks ahead of whatever dates you need so I can accommodate that. I would also need to adjust my rate to reflect the lost income. I understand and respect animals boundaries and try my best not to encroach them. I've also mastered the "foot as barrier" approach when opening doors.

About: I’ve been around and caring for dogs for over 15 years and genuinely love being around them. I also went to dog grooming school and am certified in dog CPR, so I have experience safely handling all different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. I’m comfortable with everything from big energetic dogs to little ones and seniors who need some extra patience. I’ll always treat your dog like I would my own and make sure they’re safe, happy, and getting plenty of attention! I currently have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the week. I love being active and spending time with animals, so pet care fits naturally into my routine. I’m happy to work around your pets normal schedule whenever possible. Making sure your pet feels safe and comfortable is always my first priority. My training at Midwest School of Dog Grooming taught me proper handling and safety techniques for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I’ve also attended dog safety seminars and am dog CPR certified. I’ll respect your pets routine, your home, and any specific instructions you leave for me
