About: Growing up around my grandma’s kittens and cats gave me an early understanding of feline behavior, comfort, and boundaries. As an adult, I’ve had more hands-on experience caring for cats, which has deepened my appreciation for their unique balance of friendliness and independence. What sets me apart is my patience and respect for letting cats set the pace, along with my experience administering medications mixed into meals when needed. I focus on creating a calm, stress-free environment so cats feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for in my presence.
“Amber is an amazing pet sitter. Not that you should do this but we booked her last minute and she was very accommodating and flexible. She worked with my other pet sitter and helped with a big task- catching and caring for our chickens bumblefoot. We even had an unfortunate event happen while we were gone and Amber cared for it. We could not be more grateful and couldn’t recommend Amber enough!!!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life from big dogs to small. I love walking my own dogs in forest preserves and I have dog-sat my neighbor’s dog before. I also worked at a pet store for a few months. I’m currently in school and have a part time job, but my mornings during the weekdays from 6 am to 11am are free to walk your dogs. I currently don’t offer pet care in my home, but I’m happy to travel to you. I make sure pets feel safe, happy, and loved while in their own home. I follow their usual routine for feeding, walks, and playtime. I can also send updates and photos so you know they’re doing great while you’re away.
About: I have had pet dogs and cats my whole life, and they have always been a cherished part of my family. I currently live in a non-pet-friendly apartment building, so Rover gives me the opportunity to care for pets while I can’t have one of my own. I work at a warehouse on second shift, so I am gone in the evenings and head back home around 1am. When housesitting, I’m able to provide care to your pets during the day until I leave for work at 3:30 pm i will do my best to adhere to your normal routine with your pets, and ensure that they are exercised, fed, and pottied before I leave for work. It is my goal to adhere to your pets’ normal routine as much as possible. When I am watching someone’s pets for the first time, I request details about their schedule, eating and play habits, special quirks, etc so that I am prepared to give them consistent and attentive care.
“Julianna was absolutely wonderful with my cats while I was away.My cats clearly loved her,and I really appreciated all the pictures and daily updates she sent it made me feel so much better about leaving them at home.She was very attentive, caring and very good with them. I always felt informed and reassured knowing they were in great hands. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter,and I will absolutely use her services again in the future.”
About: Hi my name is Mozelle. I would love to help you out with any care you need for your animals. I have a yellow lab who I trained myself. I also have a cat and occasionally help train k9 working dogs in my spare time. I used to live on a farm and am great with all farm animals. I currently work full time, but am available in the mornings, Tuesdays and Thursdays, along with every other weekend off. I understand the need for dog walking and potty breaks being a working dog mom. I have a large yard, but it is not fenced. I will be sure to always have the dog on a leash. New surroundings can be curious for dogs and the safety is my biggest priority.
About: I’ve been caring for cats for years and truly love getting to know every cat’s unique personality. Whether your cat is playful, shy, cuddly, or independent, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I provide reliable care, clean litter boxes, feeding, playtime, cuddles, and plenty of updates/photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your cat is in good hands!
About: With a wealth of experience in various animal-related fields, my love for animals began at a young age when I volunteered for a local animal rescue for seven years. Once I entered the workforce, I spent several years as a Kennel Technician at Kendall County Animal Control. I then accepted a position at Springbrook Animal Care Center, where I cherished many years until the pandemic hit. I now work aa a Quality Assurance Coordinator for the elderly. Additionally I am an active volunteer and foster for a local rescue. I have been a pet sitter for many years, but I have been a professional pet sitter for over 3 years now. I am currently furthering my animal education by taking online courses on pet sitting and pet care. My focuses are primarily on reptiles, cats, dogs, fish, small critters, and exotics. Beyond my professional life I like to spend my time planning my next disney trip and tending to my garden. Moreover, my garden serves as a personal sanctuary, where I cultivate a variety of plants that attract local wildlife, from butterflies to birds. This connection with nature complements my love for animals, reminding me of the intricate web of life that we all share. Looking to the future, I hope to expand my skills and continue making a positive impact in the world of animal care, always driven by the simple yet profound joy that animals bring into our lives. My favorite animal is the Capybara

About: I have had cats in my home since a very young age. I was caring for 5 cats at one time, ranging in ages 1-19. I’ve seen just about every possibility with cats and never shy away from a challenge.
About: I have always had a dog or two for pets during my life. I would not know how to be without one. I have just recently become a lover of cats, too. My son has 4 and I find myself wanting to visit them often. I look forward to coming home after work and seeing the joy in my dogs eyes that I bring them.

About: What sets me apart is a lifetime of hands-on experience, a deep love for animals, and a calm, reliable approach to care. I’m 31 years old and have spent my entire life around dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, and personalities. Whether it’s caring for energetic puppies, giving gentle attention to senior pets, or just understanding each pet’s unique needs, I treat every animal like my own—with patience, affection, and respect. I’m confident in administering basic medications, recognizing pet body language, and keeping animals safe, comfortable, and happy in any environment. I work full-time from 8am to 5pm, Monday through Friday, but I’m available for pet sitting on weekends and for walks or drop-in visits after 5pm on weekdays. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine—I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and make it a priority to give them the attention, activity, and affection they need when I’m with them. I have a fenced in yard with enough space to run and play, I also have a chocolate lab who is laid back and loves other dogs.
About: I am an excellent communicator and treat pets as they are my own. I have a heart for helping others and this is one of the ways I do that! I’m currently a college student and am very flexible with my schedule. I have weekends free and can help in a last minute situation! I’m happy to help. I make sure to ask lots of questions about the home before I am left there with the animals. I also make sure to question anything I am unsure of or unfamiliar with! I also prefer my fiancé to accompany me for safety reasons. We are a fun couple who loves dog sitting and taking care of your pups! We’d love to meet you and your furry friends!
About: Currently I’m avaible for dropping in for house visits and dog walking right now. I’ve had pets all my life, from the furry to scaly skin I love all animals!

In your home I can stop by for feedings, go on a walk, play with them, and administer oral medication. I know every dog is different and I love getting to know every dog and their special needs.
About: I tailor my approach to each cat's unique needs. I prepare their favorite meals, engage them with interactive toys, and create a cozy environment. I also focus on their emotional well-being, offering plenty of affection (if they like that) to ensure they feel safe, happy, and loved.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Sheridan
Prices are estimates per day. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
About: Hello! Kim and family here. We have over 30 years of animal care experience. From cats and dogs to lizards and horses. We feel comfortable with a variety of animals. With a background in law enforcement adjacent positions and a TS clearance. Clean background. Bachelors level education in behavioral science and criminal justice and security administration, as well as CPR certifications for humans and animals, and a vet assisting certification/experience! We can administer insulin and give oral medications. We also LOVE elderly animals. We are licensed bonded and insured. And have decades of the world under our feet. Animals are like people to us. We actually prefer them, and function with them better. Living on a five acre hobby farm for over a decade. They are literally our family now that the kids have aged into adults. It’s me and my husband Mike here. My family helps me operate a small pet care business out of Big Rock IL. House Sitting: We treat your home with respect and follow all of your rules. Water plants. Get mail. And stick to pet schedules. Please advise we do this full time. Each sitting is different as each animal and owner ask for different things. If full time care is needed it will be an extended stay rate of 125 for 8am through 8pm hours and 75 for the night. If we can’t come and go. We can’t make money. This is all I do for income and no one can survive off of only 75 or less for the day. Otherwise most sittings look like me making that my center of gravity through any schedule I have for the day. Usually no longer than four to six hours away from the home while out with drops in accrued in a single day. For Boarding: PLEASE READ: This is a home setting; we do not consistently tour our home. I believe the photos on here and reviews do us justice. We send pet parents updates with the surrounding view almost daily to every other day. Having people walk through the house consistently was just too much for out family and the farm animals here. So we do not do this anymore. In the future we may build a kennel/outbuildings addition, and will offer tours of that should the time ever come that we decide to do that. But again, WE DO NOT PROVIDE TOURS OF OUR PERSONAL HOME. There are also other considerations to consider that most residential people do not account for. 1. Liability coverage: my liability coverage covers your animals. Not you. 2. Animal anxiety: it’s a chain. The system I have for doing things allows for animals to be as calm and anxiety free as possible. If you’re on the property. The regulars don’t know you and anxiety fills the entire area. 3. Biosecurity: Don’t take this the wrong way. I don’t know where your shoes have been. 4. Private farm setting: exactly as it states. The lay out past my private acres long drive does not even allow access to my front door without going through two secured gates. It’s not easy access. 5. Safety: I live in the middle of nowhere, and do not need anyone to know the exact lay out of my home. You’re signing up for pet service. I am providing this service. Not giving people access to my home. Thank you for understanding. Please note this is a country setting. Someone is always here if I (Kim) am not. Sometimes photos have issues sending. But they always eventually go through. Service can be patchy because it’s the country. Text updates are reliably daily. I pride myself on building close relationships with my clients. I treat the animals I care for with top priority as my family does this full time and this is our entire income. Our reviews and the animals we care for speak for themselves. If you’re looking for someone to love and care for your animals with truth, trust, and transparency. That also has a family of well versed animal humans at her disposal as back up care approved through Rover. You are in the right place. Look forward to hearing from you. -Kimberly, Mike, and Family. Please note that prices will more than likely rise, since Rover has gone from taking 20 percent of each booking to now 30 percent from sitters. Prices must rise to enable us to continue providing service while combating this rise in inflation, not only on the platform, but in the world. Liability contract needed to continue service with the understanding that dogs bark, bite, scratch, and get into physical environmental factors. In a farm setting please make sure all of your animals are on needed monthly flea and tick preventative as well as heart guard. I have plenty of time for your pups and their specific needs/routines. We cater to every animal as if they were our own, and understand each one is special and different. We have a double fenced yard, with lots of open space indoors and out. Extra crates and or farm house furniture for your pets needs.
“Miriam was wonderful, absolutely wonderful with Katie, our terrier rescue. She let her sit on her lap while she worked. She had a raincoat, then a winter coat, on her when the weather got colder for her trips outdoors. She furnished these coats, I didn't bring any. A 3-page report card was given to me when I picked Katie up. It detailed her potty breaks and told cute little stories about their day together. I received numerous pics and videos that I thoroughly enjoyed. I met Terrell when I was leaving, and he seemed just as wonderful. I would give her 100 stars if I could.”
“So incredible! She is very attentive and responsive! We got video and photo updates throughout the day which made me know our dogs were well taken care of! Our dogs came home happy and tired! There is honestly nothing better than that. Cannot recommend Vanessa enough!!”
“Max had a wonderful time spending the day with Roger and his two dogs. Roger provided many pictures and a great summary of Max's time spent there. Highly recommend.”
“I absolutely love leaving my dog with Beyonka! My pup is always extremely happy when he goes to her place, and that gives me so much peace of mind knowing he’s being well cared for. Every time I pick him up he smells delicious and looks so well-loved. You can tell she truly enjoys what she does. I 100% recommend her—she’s amazing!”
About: I have been a dog lover my whole life. I've had my own furry babies and have taken care of dogs for my friends and family. I have experience with both puppies and senior dogs, so I understand the patience it takes to have dogs at all age levels. I work from home Monday through Friday and am off on the weekends. Besides some drop offs and pick ups to and from sports during the week, your furry baby will never be lonely. If they like car rides, I will be more than happy to take them along. Each dog is special in their own way so it's very important that I take my queue from them. If they love cuddles and belly rubs, I'm there. If they love to play, we have a fenced yard where we can play and run around. If they love to sit back, relax and observe, I will give them their space until they're ready. Every pet will be treated as if they were my own.
“Brian was excellent with our skittish 10-month old puppy and helped our puppy get acclimated to other dogs in his care. We would definitely choose to trust Brian with our dog in the future.”
“Erin responded immediately and had excellent communication about how everything worked. She sent updates in the morning letting me know things were going well and posted afternoon pictures and videos as well. I am very happy that I found her service and my dog is too!”
“It was my first time taking my Rocky to Jennifer. Jennifer was wonderful with Rocky and kept me posted throughout the day of how he was doing. Rocky was able to play with the other pups and sure got his exercise for the day. He was one pooped pup when he came home. We have Jennifer booked for a week for our vacation in August. I feel like Rocky is getting a vacation too! Lots of fun and socialization.”
About: Love to have a furry companion on my walks and give them some time outside, I’ve had dogs my whole life big and small and always enjoy walking them. Me and my husband are working part time, and we love dogs, so we have plenty of free days to spend and take nice walks with your pup! Our house has a fenced in yard and we also have a few gates so the dogs can’t get to any places they shouldn’t be.
About: I’ve been taking care of pets since childhood. First it was cats, then dogs, and I’m now a proud owner of a Quaker parrot. I’m willing to walk or pet sit dogs, help pet sit cats at their own home, and the same with exotic birds. Someone is always home with the pet and we also help you dog get socialized with our parrot. When I had dogs, I let them sleep on the bed with us. I also let them sit on the furniture, too. And I do spoil them, also. I work full time in the afternoon shift but my boyfriend works mornings so there is always someone home. He loves animals, too! I do my best to work around my schedule. Our bird Kerry only goes in his cage when we are both out of the house and at bedtime. Otherwise, we let him out. Kerry is used to dogs. He likes to talk to dogs.
“Thank you so much for watching our fur-bsby on such short notice. Also, for being flexible with drop-off and pickup. I can tell she had fun from the pics a d videos. Great Job- Highly recommend!!”

“Yesenia was so great. I was in from out of town and I had a gap between when we needed to be out of the Airbnb and when the class I came for ended. I needed some place to take my dog for a few hours. She was conveniently near where I needed to be. She attentively asked about my dog’s needs (she’s dog-reactive and has anxiety) and provided a safe space for her to be. My dog felt so relaxed that she fell asleep while cuddling with her. Would highly recommend Yesenia’s services!”

I do some dog walking in the neighborhood but am accepting more!
About: I love all the furry babies, my own fur babies are treated like my children. I work from home, so your baby would have my attention through the entire day. We would have time to play, walk, snuggle, and bond. I have a large fenced in back yard. Your baby would feel at home and comfortable in my home, they would have full access to roam and wander. They also would be allowed on the couches / beds for snuggles and belly rubs. I work from home, giving me the flexibility to ensure your pup has plenty of time and attention.

“Kimberly was amazing with our crazy dog! We just moved and he was a bit anxious, but he loved her! She even offered to sew up one of the things he tore up in his kennel! She is so sweet and kept me informed on how my crazy little boy was doing while I was at work! I will definitely book her again!”
About: Hi there, my name is Sami! I've lived with dogs my whole life, big and small - some of which include a Golden Retriever, a Yorkie, and a Maltese. My sister occasionally comes over with her Goldendoodle, and I love spending time with my aunt's Bernese Mountain Dogs when I can visit them. I plan to adopt my own dog later in the future, and perhaps enroll them as a therapy dog to bring comfort to others. I've watched both my sister's and parents' dogs while they are away for the day, and I have some experience in caring for them when they were puppies. I used to walk my parents' dogs in the past, as well. I enjoy interacting with dogs as a whole, and I put their safety and comfort first. I'm an introvert who lives a quiet lifestyle, but I also love to have fun, so if your furry friend needs someone to hang out with while you're away, I'll be there for them! NOTE: Though I adore cats, I am unfortunately allergic and therefore cannot interact with them directly if you have any in your home. I can still feed or play with them via a cat teaser or laser pointer, but I cannot pet them or pick them up. :( Currently, I am seeking full-time work in my field of behavioral therapy. I am in the early stages of hire at an elementary school in Minooka, so I will be manually updating my Rover schedule to provide some availability Monday through Friday, with 4:00pm at the earliest. On Saturdays and Sundays, I am available during afternoons and evenings, though prior arrangements in advance can be made for a morning walk or drop-in visit! I will update my schedule as soon as anything changes. If you have any questions regarding my schedule for a particular day or week, please don’t hesitate to message me! IMPORTANT: As per Rover’s Terms of Service, please note that I cannot share private contact details or accept methods of payment outside of Rover. This is for the safety and security of all parties involved. When out on a walk, I will make sure your friend is kept safe and away from hazards or things they may be uncomfortable with. When dropping in for a visit, I will make sure their needs are met and everything is secured for their safety. They would never be left unsupervised, and they'll get lots of love and playtime! I will gladly send photos and text updates upon request. Please do let me know your communication frequency preferences, so I don't accidentally disturb you with messages!
“Carol was great. On time every day and gave great updates. It was super hot too and she made sure my dogs got outside to do their business and explore. I highly recommend her.”
About: I have worked in kennel for 2 years. Currently, I work at a vet clinic. I have experience with dogs and cats. I can do drop ins, dog walking, spending overnights with the pets at owners home. I work full time and I am up bright an early. I can let you dogs out before and after work on weekdays. On weekend I can do drop ins, daycare and boarding at the owners house. I have reliable transportation. I will not have pets at my apartment due to size. I'd rather go to the owner's home for an easier transition for the dog/cat. To make it easier, I need a detailed schedule and a phone number to contact owners for updates and photos.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life; big medium small. I have always been able to create connections with furry friends by giving them lots of love and attention. I’m very attentive when it comes to taking care of senior dogs and their needs. As well as being just as playful as puppies are. I’m currently on summer break before I go to college to become a pediatrician. This being said, my schedule is very available for a long while! For my dog at home, I treat her like family! I walk her daily, feed her twice a day, and give her snuggles and lots of love. I take her outside in the backyard about every hour in the fenced in backyard and she’ll run around and go nuts chasing her ball, and running after rabbits.
About: Hi my name is Mozelle. I would love to help you out with any care you need for your animals. I have a yellow lab who I trained myself. I also have a cat and occasionally help train k9 working dogs in my spare time. I used to live on a farm and am great with all farm animals. I currently work full time, but am available in the mornings, Tuesdays and Thursdays, along with every other weekend off. I understand the need for dog walking and potty breaks being a working dog mom. I have a large yard, but it is not fenced. I will be sure to always have the dog on a leash. New surroundings can be curious for dogs and the safety is my biggest priority.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life from big dogs to small. I love walking my own dogs in forest preserves and I have dog-sat my neighbor’s dog before. I also worked at a pet store for a few months. I’m currently in school and have a part time job, but my mornings during the weekdays from 6 am to 11am are free to walk your dogs. I currently don’t offer pet care in my home, but I’m happy to travel to you. I make sure pets feel safe, happy, and loved while in their own home. I follow their usual routine for feeding, walks, and playtime. I can also send updates and photos so you know they’re doing great while you’re away.
About: My family has three big dogs, who I love and care for so much. I have many years of training, walking, dog sitting, and dog-loving experience. I am a full time student who has free time during school breaks, some mornings, and some weekends. Which allows me plenty of time, but never enough with my furry friends. I walk both of my dogs, together whenever I get the chance too. Your pet’s safety is my main priority, and then comes the fun! I love to be sure that my dogs live their lives to the fullest by walking them and allowing them to experie the outdoors as much as possible.
About: Hi there! I’m very caring, calm & pet smart – 7 years of experience including 3 years on rover: with dogs, cats, puppies & seniors. Reliable, playful, and always on time. Please note: Rover requires sitters to set standard daily rates on their profile, but I’m very flexible with pricing and happy to work within your budget whenever possible. My main goal is providing loving, reliable care for your pets, so if the listed rate doesn’t fit your needs, feel free to reach out and we can discuss a price that works for both of us! I’m available any day and time, except when I’m on vacation or away at school! I’m flexible and happy to stay overnight or adjust to whatever your pet needs! I do create a calm, safe space and follow all pet routines closely—whether at my home or yours. Pets are loved, watched, and always comfortable.
About: My passion for dogs has been with me since a very young age. As a child, my dream was to be a vet because of my passion and love for animals. I have 20 years of service, and my approach to caring for my dogs at home has always been holistic and natural. I've reversed my dog's diagnosed disease naturally and have saved his life naturally when vets have told me to put my dog to sleep. I'm thorough with my dogs’ routine, medication, diet, and cleaning eating. That makes me highly prepared for the dogs I tend to. Fun fact: My family and I own 17 pets! Usually, when everyone goes on a family trip, I'm the caregiver for all our pets at once. Hopefully, the background I give of my experience gives you peace in choosing me to watch your babies 🐩🐶🐕 I do freelance work; it's my main source of income. Therefore, it’s easy to create my own schedule and very flexible days and hours. It will be easier for you to book with me as I strive to work with your schedule and needs effortlessly Personally, with my own dog, I'm highly attentive. Even though we have a backyard, I strongly believe in always being present and attentive when taking your dog out to potty. Even in your own backyard! Anytime they are outside, I will be present. I also think it’s important to interact and be present regularly with them; they need attention and love, too. I make sure to spend time with my dog when I come home and make time to play, cuddle, and show him affection . Also, it's important for me to take him out of the house. Even if it's a short walk, cruising in the car to pick up errands or food. It's important for them to explore and experience different environments.
About: From dogs to turtles to birds. I grew up with animals all my life. I have my own young pup and senior dog. I truly know the time it takes, walking/ exercising, food schedule, and love to give to both! I love love love animals, so I definitely want to incorporate pet sitting into my lifestyle; especially if it means I can help others during their travels and such. I’m a new mom, but I have a flexible schedule most days! If my hubby works during the time of your pet’s care, I will have to bring the baby so he’s not left alone. I know the value in crate training, potty/ food schedules if need be, being in a comfortable space for your pet, and anything to maintain their sanctuary at home.

About: I’ve taken care of pets my whole life, have had dogs since I was a baby. And have consistently pet sat for neighbors and friends. I’ve also volunteered at vet clinics. I am a college student home for the summer. And I’m looking for some extra work! Please reach out if you need pet care. :) All care is provided in the client’s home so pets can stay comfortable in their own environment. I follow your pet’s normal routine for feeding, walks, and playtime, and always prioritize safety, cleanliness, and respect for your home. I’m also happy to send updates and photos while you’re away!
About: I have been taking care of the pets of friends and family for years, ranging from dog-walking to week-long pet sitting. Experience with a wide range of breeds and ages. I am a substitute teacher with a very flexible schedule, so I can take care of animals pretty much any time during days when I am not subbing. For sitting at other’s’ home, I try and keep the pet’s schedule as close to normal as possible! I prefer sitting in other’s’ homes just to keep things simple for the furry babies.
About: In my home, your pet will be treated like family, and given as much love, attention, and activity as they desire. Living on ten acres of land offers my clients the unique opportunity to experience a true country retreat when boarding in my home. In addition to leashed walks all around the property, we also have a well maintained, secure fenced-in yard for supervised off-leash playtime and potty breaks. While we're able to take a walk on the wild side out on the farm, inside the house is kept clean and sanitized at all times to ensure a happy, healthy stay for your pet. The three dogs living in the home are all dog-friendly, but don't sweat it if your furry friend is not! I am capable and more than happy to accommodate pups who might not prefer the company of other dogs. I have fostered a number of animals both healthy and ill, and have had the honor to take on numerous hospice cases. These experiences have left me comfortable providing care to senior and special needs animals, as well as animals with particular medical needs. I have also worked with trainers over the years with a variety of reactive, and agressive fosters, giving me a unique perspective and ability to work with a wide variety of behavioral issues. Beyond our more common furry friends, I also have extensive experience with exotics and a variety of farm animals. I work from home and make my own schedule, so no matter the schedule you require your pet care done on, I will likely be able to accommodate it. I live in a four bedroom home, with an entire guest room dedicated to your pets. I have the ability to crate your pets, or leave them uncrated in a comfortable, pet safe room whenever I am not interacting with them. I have three friendly dogs and can do supervised group playtime in our spacious fenced in yard if desired. I also live on ten acres of property, so there will be plenty of playtime to be had on leash in our beautiful, open fields outside of unleashed playtime in the enclosed yard.
About: I have been taking care of dogs for as long as I can remember. From puppies to elderly dogs, I have seen it all. I have been to countless behavior and training classes with my own dogs so I am prepared for whatever your dog throws at me! I am currently a full-time student with flexible hours! I am available most weekday afternoons as well as all-day Sundays. Saturdays vary on a week-to-week basis. I am a huge fan of in-home care for pets as it allows them to stay in an environment that is familiar to them. Whenever I dogsit, I always make sure to interact and play with them as much as possible to keep them happy and relaxed!

About: Currently I’m avaible for dropping in for house visits and dog walking right now. I’ve had pets all my life, from the furry to scaly skin I love all animals! As an avid animal lover I love nothing more than getting to know you and your pet so you can trust that they’re in the best possible care with as I treat every pet as my own. I work a part time job that only requires me to work a couple days a week so just shoot me a message and I can let you know which days I can help out with your pet needs! In your home I can stop by for feedings, go on a walk, play with them, and administer oral medication. I know every dog is different and I love getting to know every dog and their special needs.
