Personalized care for your dog or cat - Grimsby

“Jason and his family are amazing! They are caring and diligent and you can tell they really love dogs! The hardest part of going out of town is finding good care for our dogs, thankfully Jason has solved that problem! They took time to give us updates and pictures through the stay so we knew they were happy and well cared for. I highly recommend them!!”

About: I’ve been taking care of pets all my life and try my best to create an stress-free and healthy environment for your pets and your peace of mind!

I will make sure the environment is very stress-free and calm along with the potential need for discipline (which I will do as your directed desires.)

“Melinda is amazing! Our pup was so well taken care of. We've used rover plenty of times but she is the real deal. She loves dogs and tends to their every need. Winston came back to us so claim and relaxed. We will definitely rebook with melinda. Oh and no need to worry she takes so many pictures/videos keeping us uptodate, which was very comforting while being away for a week. Just can't say enough good things about her.”

Claudia L.

“I would 100% recommend erin! She is absolutely the best with our baby boy thor. Our dog could be a handful at times but he is the sweetest. You could just tell that they bonded for just even a few days we left him. I would not hesitate to leave him with her cause I know she will take good care of our boy! ?”

About: I’ve had a dog of my own since 2018, Ciri and I started when she could fit in my hand. Since then, I’ve added two more dogs to the home and it’s come in all types. I’ve dealt with them deathly sick, scared, nervous, hyper, and sleepy. I work full time at SIUC, but my friend and roommate is a retired Army veteran who spends most of his time at home. Unless something very unexpected happens, the dogs are not left alone for more than 4 hours. My house has two separately fenced in yards and I have three friendly dogs of my own and my roommate has one cat. We’re laidback and at constant war with husky hair, but we get by with optional crating and indoor and outdoor time whenever your pup needs it.

“Working with Amy and Aaron was a wonderful experience. Amy picked up my cats from the airport and housed them overnight when I got stranded in a blizzard. They did it on only a few hours notice, provided exemplary care, and even delivered them to me when I finally arrived in town. I’d use Amy and Aaron again in a heartbeat.”
