About: Hi! I’m Kaitlyn! I love animals. I have one cat and used to have piggies! I absolutely love taking care of fur babies. I would love to take care of yours too!! I normally don’t accept boarding at my house, since my cats aren’t really fond of dogs. But I’d be more than welcome to stay at your house if that makes you feel comfortable! I’ve been caring for Animals for quite a long time. I’m always available and can always be your sitter whenever you need me! Feel free to message me! I am free weekdays and some weekends. I also have a 4 year old i would have to bring with me Wednesday thru Friday if okay. I have a fenced in yard and can crate animals if needed! Also have experience giving medicine as well!

About: I’ve always loved animals and have a passion for taking care of them. I have an older dog and a cat at home, so I’m used to giving pets lots of love, attention, and the extra care seniors need. I’ll treat your pets like my own and make sure they feel safe and happy while you’re away. I am currently a full time student at Lewis and Clark Community College so I have plenty of time to care for animals on the side! When I’m caring for pets on walks or in your home, I always make sure they feel comfortable and safe. On walks, I’ll go at their pace, make sure they stay hydrated, and give them plenty of time to sniff and explore. In your home, I’ll stick to their normal routine, give them lots of love and attention, and keep things clean and calm so they feel right at home even while you’re away.

About: I work 8-4:30pm Monday through Friday, I can do before work and after work depending on the time and area pretty much always available on weekends feel free to reach out 😃. I have been around animals my whole life. As a child we had three American Bull dogs. I have taken care of animals for friends when they were out of town until they return home. I personally have a dog named Simba, he’s very loving and loves attention. We go on walks and play fetch, he gets spoiled with toys weekly. Pet care fits into my schedule because I can drop in before and after work. Weekends I’m free all through out the day so plenty of time for extra attention! I work from home three days out of the week Monday - Friday and go in twice a week. I follow all owner rules and like to send pictures and videos of their happy fur babies. I care for Simba by taking him potty regularly making sure he has plenty of food and water. We go for walks when the weather lets us.

About: Hi, I’m Gabbi, and I have over 6 years of experience caring for other people’s pets! I am new to Rover, but I have multiple pet sitting references that I can provide from customers that have had me hired me for years! I’ve watched dogs of all sizes from Great Pyrenees to Chihuahuas. I’ve handled hundreds of cats so I am used to every personality. I have also cared for reptiles, amphibians, fish, farm animals, and rodents. I’ve watched dogs who need vigorous exercise, as well as the opposite. I’ve cared for puppies and kittens, seniors, and every age in between. I’ve watched a litter of kittens that were still nursing. I have experience with cats and dogs affected by cerebral palsy, deafness, blindness, and other special needs. I am experienced in administering multiple forms of medication. I also volunteer for an animal shelter, which gives me a lot of unique situations and experiences! I have a relatively flexible schedule. I work part time at a dog grooming salon. My shifts are typically 6 hours or less, and I only work up to 3 days a week. I do sometimes have other commitments that are unlikely to take more than 4 hours at a time. For people interested in boarding, I have a fenced yard and an 11/yo, 15 lb Shih Tzu who is very friendly. He is laid back and prefers dogs who are also laid back, but has never shown aggression with high energy dogs. I typically walk the dogs I watch at least once a day, but that can vary on the age and/or the activity level of the dog. I can also take them to a park, weather permitting! I always try to keep the pups experience as stress-free as possible, so I listen closely to everything you tell me about your pet. I try to stick to any routine that you guys share, whether that be feeding times, walking times, or anything else! I live in a quiet neighborhood where your dog will be safe with me.

About: I have been taking care of and loving on pets for 10+ years. I have several fur babies of my own, so I certainly understand the importance of having someone take care of your pets who will love them just as much as you do! I have experience with caring for pets for most of my life, but most recently, I have been doing drop in visits to feed and take care of family pets, as well as some pet sitting for friends who are out of town. I am also familiar with dealing with anxious dogs as both of my boys have some pretty serious storm anxiety. I do currently work full time, however, I work from home, so I have plenty of flexibility to drop in and take your fur babies for walks, or just check in and spend some time providing snuggles throughout the day. I am free on weekends as well for house-sitting, overnight care, etc. I believe your pets should be taken care of exactly the way they would be if you were home! Whether that means sleeping in the bed, walks 3x a day, or a strict schedule, I will always follow your established regimen to the absolute best of my ability. There is nothing more important than making sure your pet feels as comfortable in their routines and home as possible when mom and dad are away.

About: Neighbors, friends and family have always trusted me to care for , play with and stop by to feed/ take out their dogs when they were out of town. I love all animals, especially dogs . I think this would be a great opportunity to learn more about different breeds! I work Tuesday-Saturday 9-5, I would be able to let them out to potty before work, after work and if needed before bedtime. I have open availability on weekends , for any parents wanting to take a weekend trip or a night out or have afternoon work shifts. We can work things out ! I have hardwood flooring and open space for them to run around. Along with this , I have two dachshunds that would keep your pet occupied and have some playmates.

About: I provide pet sitting in my home for puppies and small dogs (under 20 lbs). I also provide drop in services to your home and dog walking. My son and I have have been dog walking and sitting for others in the Riverbend area for the past 10 years. I LOVE traveling so I know how important (and difficult) it is to find a dog sitter you can trust and rely on while you're gone. I love all dogs and enjoy meeting new clients whether I am dropping in for visits or walks or boarding in my home. Please reach out with any questions. I am a mother of two adult children and work a hybrid schedule. I have lots of free time and have been dog walking and sitting for over 10 years with my son. We started dog walking and sitting together when he was 12 and he will be starting college soon and I want to continue our side business on my own. We have 2 acres on a cul-de-sac in Godfrey and enjoy talking walks. We have a large home that is safe and dog friendly. I can also do drop-ins while you are away.

About: My name is Brooke and I've been an avid animal lover for as long as I can remember. Growing up surrounded by various pets, I developed a deep understanding of their behavior, needs, and individual quirks. This lifelong affinity led me to pursue being a pet care provider, where I've had the privilege of caring for many beloved companions. In Home Pet Sitting: Your pet's comfort and well-being are my top priorities. I offer in-home pet sitting to ensure your furry friends can remain in familiar surroundings while receiving the love and attention they deserve. Dog Walking: Regular exercise is essential for a happy and healthy pup. I provide personalized dog walking session tailored to your dog's age, breed, and energy level, keeping them active and engaged. Feeding and Medication: Whether your pet requires a special diet or medication, rest assured that I will follow your instructions to ensure their dietary and medical needs are met. Daily Updates: Stay connected with your furry friends while you're away with regular photo and video updates, giving you peace of mind knowing they're in good hands. I am a student at SIUE with classes on Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays. On these days I am available after 4:30pm. In-Home Pet Sitting is available daily, but your pets will need to be left alone for up to 7-8 hours on Mondays and Wednesdays. I will care for your pet and/or home as if it were my own. Your instructions will be followed meticulously to ensure your pet is getting the proper care that they need and deserve.

About: Hi I’m Chen, moved to Alton last year and currently working as a Product Manager at a software company. I love animals— I have a mini dachshund and two cats. While I love my puppy dog, cats hold a special place in my heart ❤️ I believe in open communication to build trust with my clients (and the pets haha), and because of that, I have many repeat clients. I’m ecstatic to meet your pet(s) and thankful for considering me. I’m very responsive on Rover, so if you have any question/inquiry, please reach out. Thank you! I am currently working from home. My work schedule is quite flexible, so I have plenty of time to take care of your fur babies. I have a yard (not fenced in unfortunately) at my house and one puppy and two kitties to keep your fur babies company. Your babies will be supervised most of the day unless I am out running errands. If they are fully house-trained, I can just leave them be, otherwise, I will crate them!

About: I provide pet sitting in my home for puppies and small dogs (under 20 lbs). I also provide drop in services to your home and dog walking. My son and I have have been dog walking and sitting for others in the Riverbend area for the past 10 years. I LOVE traveling so I know how important (and difficult) it is to find a dog sitter you can trust and rely on while you're gone. I love all dogs and enjoy meeting new clients whether I am dropping in for visits or walks or boarding in my home. Please reach out with any questions. I am a mother of two adult children and work a hybrid schedule. I have lots of free time and have been dog walking and sitting for over 10 years with my son. We started dog walking and sitting together when he was 12 and he will be starting college soon and I want to continue our side business on my own. We have 2 acres on a cul-de-sac in Godfrey and enjoy talking walks. We have a large home that is safe and dog friendly. I can also do drop-ins while you are away.

Loved having Danielle as my dog walker! My dog is very skiddish to new people and she took the time to meet him and walk him with me multiple times so that he could warm up to her. She treats everyone’s pet as her own. 10/10!

Brooke has watched my Rottweiler, Roxie on multiple occasions and does excellent with her. When I mention Brookes name to Roxie she will look out the patio door for her. Brooke is very caring, and loving with animals, as well as a very easy going person to communicate with.

About: Hi I’m Chen, moved to Alton last year and currently working as a Product Manager at a software company. I love animals— I have a mini dachshund and two cats. While I love my puppy dog, cats hold a special place in my heart ❤️ I believe in open communication to build trust with my clients (and the pets haha), and because of that, I have many repeat clients. I’m ecstatic to meet your pet(s) and thankful for considering me. I’m very responsive on Rover, so if you have any question/inquiry, please reach out. Thank you! I am currently working from home. My work schedule is quite flexible, so I have plenty of time to take care of your fur babies. I have a yard (not fenced in unfortunately) at my house and one puppy and two kitties to keep your fur babies company. Your babies will be supervised most of the day unless I am out running errands. If they are fully house-trained, I can just leave them be, otherwise, I will crate them!

I have yet to meet a human who loves all dogs as much as Melanie does. I’d go as far to say she’s a dog person > people person LOL. A very kind, considerate, & giving soul that deeply connects w animals. I’ve let her take care of my dog Major when I don’t really trust anyone else. It’s just because I know she’ll put my dogs needs over her own 😂 She’s the one!!!!
