Julianne is amazing!!! We received updated at minimum twice a day with photos and videos included. Was very impressed with her communication and transparency during our pups stay with her while we was 1000 miles away. It was comforting knowing she was well taken care of. We can’t thank Julianne enough for her time with our pup and most definitely plan to use her again in the future.

Keandra went above and beyond to make sure my dog had a good time. She also was very flexible with pickup/drop off times which was helpful since I had a flight early in the morning. She also gave my dog a free shower and made sure he got plenty of exercise and play time with her dogs. 100% would recommend Keandra

Amber is the best sitter I’ve had for Beanie so far. I’ve rebooked with her multiple times, and every experience has been wonderful. The last time I dropped Beanie off, she was having some diarrhea issues, but Amber handled it so well. She checked with me before feeding her pumpkin, and it really helped Beanie feel better. Beanie absolutely loves spending time with Amber, which gives me so much peace of mind. Amber clearly understands dogs and knows how to care for them with both knowledge and compassion. Dog owners can truly relax and trust that their pets are in great hands with her.

Here’s a polished positive review you could use: Kristen was absolutely wonderful watching my two boy dogs while I was on vacation. She was friendly, reliable, and very communicative throughout the entire stay, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. She kept me updated regularly and was always quick to respond to messages. Most importantly, my boys absolutely loved her! It was clear they were well cared for, happy, and comfortable in her care. I would highly recommend Kristen to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter, and I would gladly book with her again.

Elena took Lola on two walks, even though she spent a single night there. Elena was also a great communicator before and during Lola's stay. We will definitely reach out to her if we ever need boarding services while we're in town visiting family. Highly recommended!

About: Hi! I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years through fostering, volunteering at animal rescues, and loving on pups of all kinds. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, so I’m available for check-ins, walks, or just some company for your pet when you need it. I’d love to help keep your furry friend happy and cared for while you’re away! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. Since I work from home, I have the flexibility to walk, feed, and check in on pets throughout the day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routine as closely as possible to keep their pet comfortable and stress-free. I provide fresh food and water, walks, playtime, and plenty of affection. I also make sure to keep the space clean and always send updates so you know your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

About: Hi, I’m Erica — a highly experienced animal care professional with over 20 years of hands-on experience caring for pets and farm animals of all kinds. I’m trained as a veterinary assistant, including assisting with surgeries, administering medications, and caring for senior, disabled, and post-operative animals. I specialize in calm, consistent, in-home care for pets who do best staying in their familiar environment. Many of my clients have animals with medical needs, anxiety, blindness, mobility challenges, or strict routines, and they trust me to provide compassionate, detail-oriented care while they’re away. I’m also very comfortable with multi-pet households, rural properties, and farm animals. Having grown up on a farm myself, I understand the responsibility that comes with caring for animals large and small, as well as maintaining a home and property with respect and reliability. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind, keep your pets safe and happy, and treat your home with the same care I would my own. -20+ years caring for animals of all species and temperaments -Veterinary assistant training, including surgery assistance -Medication administration (oral, topical, injections if required) -Special-needs pets (blind, senior, diabetic, post-surgical, anxious) -Farm and rural animal care -House sitting and extended stays -Potty training and behavioral reinforcement -I’m calm under pressure, attentive to detail, and deeply respectful of routines — especially when animals depend on consistency. Pet care is intentionally woven into my daily and weekly routine, not added on as an afterthought. I structure my schedule around the animals in my care so they receive consistent attention, enrichment, and calm companionship throughout the day. This allows me to be fully present for feedings, walks, playtime, medication needs, and individualized routines, while also offering flexibility for pets who need extra time, patience, or reassurance. Caring for animals isn’t something I squeeze in — it’s what my days are built around. Safety, trust, and comfort are the foundation of every service I provide. Whether caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I prioritize calm, consistency, and close supervision. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special needs so their care feels familiar and stress-free. In my home, pets are welcomed into a clean, secure, and peaceful environment with plenty of space to relax and play. Supervised outdoor time is provided in a safely contained area, and all interactions are thoughtfully managed to ensure each animal feels comfortable and respected. In a client’s home, I treat the space with the utmost care and follow instructions precisely to maintain the pet’s normal routine. With over 20 years of hands-on animal care experience, including veterinary assistant training, I am confident administering medications, supporting senior pets, and caring for animals with special needs. I maintain clear communication, provide regular updates, and care for every pet as if they were my own — with patience, attentiveness, and genuine love.

I have nearly three years of experience as a home-health aid/caregiver for our local elderly, where I also walked, picked up after, snuggled and played with many clients pets! I am comfortable administering oral medication to dogs/cats and comfortable with pets of any size. I’m full-time at home, so plenty of time to give extra care and attention to your furry loved one. Personal hobbies are baking, doing puzzles, learning new recipes, walking around different parks, painting, doodling, and binging movies/tv shows! Available every day of the week besides midday Sundays! I have reliable transportation (my personal vehicle) for travel to clients homes for sitting and walking, as well as taking dogs to parks to play. I can allow one/two dogs inside of my home. My dog only eats when she is hungry, so I ensure her food and water bowls are never empty. I will follow clients care plan/requests for how your pets are fed. I have one sweet, medium sized 6 year old female dog at home!

He did a great job with Coco. Our first time at Nate's went smoothly. Coco had a good time playing with the other dogs and in the fenced backyard. Thank you for taking good care of him.

About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals, growing up with dogs, cats, birds, and even lizards. My mom was an animal lover, and I’ve followed in her footsteps. I helped my dad with his three cats that my mom used to care for before she passed, driving an hour every week for grooming and bathing (one of them is a bit oversized!). I’d love to care for your beloved pet. Although I can’t have pets of my own due to my wife’s allergies, this makes pet sitting my dream job! I regularly care for my father’s cat, Jack, traveling over an hour each way, so distance is not an issue for me. I work seasonally for a cemetery in Bloomington which leaves me laid off from December 1st to March 1st each year. So I am highly available in that 3 month span, and then on weekends during the rest of the year. I’m here to support you and your beloved pet. I’ve always had a deep love for animals and the people who care for them. When my wife mentioned pet sitting, I was excited to get involved right away. Dogs seem to love me, and cats generally tolerate me—which I think says a lot about my character! I’m reliable, trustworthy, and available when you need me. I’ve been caring for pets since I was young, helping neighbors with feeding, walking, and cleanup. I promise to provide the care and attention your pet deserves and be a great fit for you both!

Peggy is exactly the person you want taking care of your pets. She is patient, relaxed, and full of love! She has a dog of her own, Peanut, and offers to do an introduction before your booking to make sure all animals are comfortable. My days are somewhat unpredictable and Peggy was always accommodating and patient with my schedule. Maple would rush to her door each day in anticipation. We feel so lucky that Maple has been under such great care for the past 2 weeks!!

I work from home and have a flexible schedule, so I’m available for check-ins, walks, or just some company for your pet when you need it.

Dawn was amazing with my high energy, 2 year old lab! She took him on a 2 mile walk and sent me pictures throughout his stay. I could tell from the pictures that he was having the best time ever! It can be stressful for any dog to be in a new environment with a new person, but he was very comfortable with her. Thanks Dawn!!

About: I treat every pet like they’re my own. I provide calm, attentive, and reliable care tailored to each pet’s unique needs. I’m experienced with puppies, including basic training reinforcement and routine building, as well as senior pets who need extra patience, medication reminders, and gentle care. I prioritize safety, consistency, and clear communication, so you always feel confident and connected while you’re away. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine since I’m at home most of the day. This allows me to provide consistent attention, regular potty breaks, timely feedings, playtime, and plenty of companionship throughout the day. I’m able to closely monitor pets, adjust to their schedules, and give extra care to puppies or senior pets who need more frequent check-ins. I provide personalized care based on each pet’s routine, personality, and needs. In my home or in a client’s home, I follow feeding schedules, potty routines, and any specific instructions closely. Pets receive regular exercise, playtime, affection, and supervision throughout the day. I maintain a clean, safe environment and monitor for any changes in behavior or health. For in-home visits, I respect your space and keep everything just as you left it. I also provide updates and photos so you feel connected and confident in your pet’s care.

About: Hi everyone! I am 28 years old and work as an elementary school teacher. During the summers I enjoy staying as active as possible. I enjoy long walks, running, and being around others. Throughout my life I have always loved pets! My family had a cockapoo that I have grew up playing with and caring for. Currently my boyfriend and I have a lab named Finn. Many other people close to me have pets that I am often around as well. I have dog sat in the past for multiple families and have absolutely loved it! It is always fun meeting and playing with new dogs. I would love to get to know your dog and would be happy to walk, play with, or dog sit him or her! 🐶 I have the summer free, so free to watch/ walk your dog any time. We can accommodate in our house, or I can come to your house as well. If your pup stays at our house we will make sure our dog gets along with yours. We will take great care of your pup and treat it like our own ❤️

About: I have spent my entire life caring for animals. Throughout my life I have had many animals from birds and Guinea pigs to cats and dogs. Koda, my youngest dog was completely trained by me in German commands. Working with dogs to learn new things is one of my favorite things to do. My oldest dog, Motley is a senior and the past couple years I have become very educated and trained on administration of medication and post surgery care. With experience from my own pets, I have many reliable references I have gained over the years that can vouch for me on my loving, dedicated, and superior care with their fur babies. I am currently a nanny and have almost completely open availability. I work Monday through Thursday during the day but can still do visits anytime! And I’m off Friday through Sunday so anytime those days as well! When visiting your home I am happy to provide any services you may need for your pet. This includes special feeding instructions, medication distribution, daily walks, baths, guaranteed playtime, and more all while treating them as my own with so much love! I am also happy to do drop in visits while you are at work or walks to get your babies steps in.

About: I have taken care of pets ever since I was a kid. I have experience in babysitting children. I also take care of Laya our family pet. I also have previous pet sitting experience in Wisconsin. Iny previous experience in Wisconsin, I have asked owners for written instructions on medications, favorite toys, play schedule, vet contacts as well as inquiring about safe ways to enter the house. I have given the quality care for pets including snuggles, walks, and fun games like fetch with their favorite toys and time at the dog park- if permitted by their parents. I am a substitute teacher. I frequently do half days, I'm doing mostly afternoons at my subbing jobs. I am available in the mornings and at 330-8pm for drop in visits and walks I will ask for written instructions on feeding, rules, any medications, and anything else I should know. I will send pictures and videos of what we are doing-walks, how much your pet has eaten, treats, playtime, and playtime.

About: My pet care experience consists of having a dog throughout my childhood and adult years. I've always loved the companionship of owning a dog and also visiting or babysitting families and friends' dogs/cats. With having a dog comes a lot of responsibility and attention whether that's feeding, letting outside, physical activity, and training. I'm experienced in all of those qualities. The pet care that I will be using through the new dogs and cats I meet are the basics of giving treats, going for walks, and playing fetch or ball. Those basics are important and useful for dog caregivers because any dog would love the attention and care that you are giving them unconditionally. I'm also experienced in grooming with bathing the pet if needed. Whether that's outside with a hose and soap or inside in a bathtub. Dogs are my best friends and should be treated with love and companionship therefore I would treat the dog and make sure they are happy and comfortable but also safe and calm at all times. My schedule is very flexible and in the case of babysitting or walking a dog, I will be attentive and responsible. Since I currently have a dog at home I take her outside frequently, stay outside with her and walk around the backyard or throw a toy and play fetch or even just sit in the grass and give her belly rubs. My daily routine consists of letting my dog outside and hanging out with her off and on while also letting her have time to rest and chill by herself. My weekly routine is the same as my daily routine aside from additional car rides, pup cups, or cousin visits with other dogs. The safety, trust & Environment of the care for the pet in my home and or my client's home will consist of making sure all doors are shut when entering and exiting the home or garage. Also making sure the dog is on a leash and well equipped when walking through a neighborhood. I also have a fenced-in yard so I'm experienced with fences and the proper precautions if needed. I can easily create your dog too if needed. Also water supply and refilling the water bowl as needed and giving supplements or medicine also. Also will have the clients contact information in case of emergency.

About: I started pet sitting when I worked at my first vet clinic. And, because I love animals so much, I have never stopped. I grew up with dogs, cats, ducks and every pet in between! Currently, I have 2 dogs, a Jack-Russell mix named Jake and a Beagle mix named Macy. They are extremely pet/people friendly and they love new company! Also, I worked as a veterinary assistant for a a few years, so I am very comfortable with administering medications and taking care of your pets special needs. I will provide whatever accommodations that are needed and I will make sure that your pets feel safe and comfortable. Most of all, I will always keep an open line of communication with you. I know how it feels being away form your pet and I know the importance of regular updates and pics. I look forward to hearing from you and I can’t wait to met your pets! :) 🏡 House Sitting + Boarding 🏡 (Overnight) Evening - Morning; I do offer some flexibility, however there could be an additional fee if check in/out times are drastically different from what I have set. I currently work from home full time. This means I can fully dedicate all of my time to your fur babies and their individual needs. I will care for your pet/pets the same way every single time. And, I will always treat your pet/pets as is if he or she were my own.

About: I grew up on a farm with many animals. As a child, I had pet sheep, rabbits, dogs, cats, and cows. As an adult, I have always had cats. My 20 year old long hair cat just passed away in January. It was heartbreaking. I miss him dearly. We loved our guy so much. In his last 5 yrs, I spent many hours catering to his elderly issues. Medications and night yowling were issues that I happily took care of as he lived out his twilight years. I have a soft spot for all animals as they go through all stages of life :) I work from home and set my own hours, so my schedule is extremely flexible. I am open to many kinds of arrangements- one time sitting, a weekly routine, daily walks, weekends, etc. I am extremely fortunate to have a flexible schedule. My teen daughter and I live in a large 4 bedroom home, so we have tons of space to accommodate furry friends who need company. We do not have a fenced in yard, but our neighborhood is great for long walks. Our neighborhood has trails through the woods and a home owner’s association that maintains the trails. We have lots of fun walking the trails. I am an avid jogger/walker. I go out everyday, regardless of the weather. I have a very active lifestyle! We recently adopted a cat, but he stays in his own area on a different level of the house. He has claimed my daughter as his and lives in her room. When dogs come to stay with us, he typically stays in his room & pups never see him, although he has made friends with some of our regularly visiting pups 😊 I have a very flexible work schedule. When I do have to be away from home for work, I am gone about 2-3 hrs at a time. My daughter is at home often and also helps with pups. She is great with animals! We both like to take frequent walks throughout the day! In my home, I have a large open floor plan with tons of windows. During the day, I like to have pups next to me in my office, but some like to lay in prime viewing area of all the windows.

Senior Pet Specialist: I know the ins and outs of taking care of older dogs, giving them the extra attention they need. Pet Experience: From dogs to cats, I'm adaptable to all your pet's needs. Flexible AF: My schedule's wide open, so I'm there for your fur fam whenever, wherever. Passion and Dedication: Your pets? They're my vibe. Making sure they're happy? That's my top priority! 🐾💯 My pet care routine blends smoothly into my daily and weekly life. With part-time work in the mornings and evenings, I have dedicated slots during the day to cater to your pets' needs, including walks, playtime, and meals. Weekends are wide open for extended quality time with your furry friends. I prioritize routine to reduce stress for your pets, and I keep you updated on their activities and well-being throughout the week. Your pets' happiness is my top priority, no matter the day of the week! 🐾💕 Caring for pets, whether in my home or my client's home, is a top priority for me, and I tailor my approach to meet the specific needs of each pet and their owners. Here's how I go about it: **In My Home:** If I'm caring for pets in my own home, it's essential to ensure they feel comfortable and safe. I have a fenced yard, which is a great space for pets to play and exercise. When it comes to entering and exiting, I'm a chronic double checker - doors and fences will never be left open accidentally. This meticulous attention to detail ensures that your pets won't sneak out or face any unexpected safety hazards. **In the Client's Home:** When providing in-home pet care for clients, my organized and planning-oriented nature comes into play. I stick to a well-organized schedule that includes feeding times, walks, playtime, and any other specific requirements. I'm attentive to detail, making sure doors are securely closed and that the pets are safe at all times. My goal is to provide a seamless and worry-free experience for pet owners, knowing that their beloved animals are in capable hands. Overall, whether in my home or the client's, safety, organization, and a well-thought-out schedule are at the forefront of my pet care approach. Your pets' well-being is my top priority, and I aim to ensure they receive the highest level of care and attention.

About: I love my dog (10years; Hiro) and I will treat yours as my own. From 24/7 all around care and attention: Diet, exercise, interactive play, traveling included, bathing/grooming, and medical care. All injuries are researched and attended too with remedies at home and if required, vet visit. Vet visit only with consent, if required. Contact me as needed, messaging/pictures will be provided. Food, potty needs, bedding/crate is taken care of. Advised: if special needs food/allergy/attention, please bring what your animal needs with them, extra charges will apply (if I have to go to the store, I will have a receipt) Daily. Hiro follows me everywhere. Hiro is my own dog, he’s a golden retriever mix with Great Pyrenees, he’s picky about when he eats his own food. I expect your dog and or cat will be different and have its own personality. As for how your animal fits into my daily will depend on how it goes. Most animals love me, knock on wood. I will keep you posted the whole time. The first time I had Hiro boarded I requested a video. It’s understandable. Your pets are like children. Crate training and potty training provided, if needed. Will need dog paddings. I love my dog and I will love yours as my own, depending on what your dog needs, we can manage and arrange things.

Sheila did a fabulous job with my senior Lab and nervous Goldendoodle. She sent lots of updates, and I could tell my dogs were wonderfully cared for and loved the giant yard.

Julianne is amazing!!! We received updated at minimum twice a day with photos and videos included. Was very impressed with her communication and transparency during our pups stay with her while we was 1000 miles away. It was comforting knowing she was well taken care of. We can’t thank Julianne enough for her time with our pup and most definitely plan to use her again in the future.

Keandra went above and beyond to make sure my dog had a good time. She also was very flexible with pickup/drop off times which was helpful since I had a flight early in the morning. She also gave my dog a free shower and made sure he got plenty of exercise and play time with her dogs. 100% would recommend Keandra

Nate did a great job with Hank. Hank had a great time with Nate and enjoyed his walks. He was thrilled to have a playmate as well! Hank and Nash seemed to really enjoy playing together. It was really nice getting pictures of Nash and Hank playing. We will definitely use Nate again.

Amber is the best sitter I’ve had for Beanie so far. I’ve rebooked with her multiple times, and every experience has been wonderful. The last time I dropped Beanie off, she was having some diarrhea issues, but Amber handled it so well. She checked with me before feeding her pumpkin, and it really helped Beanie feel better. Beanie absolutely loves spending time with Amber, which gives me so much peace of mind. Amber clearly understands dogs and knows how to care for them with both knowledge and compassion. Dog owners can truly relax and trust that their pets are in great hands with her.

Here’s a polished positive review you could use: Kristen was absolutely wonderful watching my two boy dogs while I was on vacation. She was friendly, reliable, and very communicative throughout the entire stay, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. She kept me updated regularly and was always quick to respond to messages. Most importantly, my boys absolutely loved her! It was clear they were well cared for, happy, and comfortable in her care. I would highly recommend Kristen to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter, and I would gladly book with her again.

Rylee was absolutely amazing with Grizzly and he seemed to be immediately at ease with her. As a truck driver who spends almost every moment with his dog at his side it was so nice to see him instantly become comfortable with Rylee. I will be using her services again and would recommend her to anyone.

Karan was amazing. He watched our Garfield sized Cat and was truly wonderful. Smart, responsible, kind and loving to our fat feline. I can’t recommend Karan enough. He has an adorable 15 lbs perfect dog as well that will get along great with any dog or cat. Nice place as well, so you are leaving your furry friend in the best of hands. Thanks Karan. We will use your services again for sure.

Our dog Lola stayed with Elena B for overnight boarding and settled right in like she was with familiar friends! we received lots of pictures of all the fun she was having and love and care she was receiving. Elena took Lola on two walks, even though she spent a single night there. Elena was also a great communicator before and during Lola's stay. We will definitely reach out to her if we ever need boarding services while we're in town visiting family. Highly recommended!

I 100% recommend Alysa!! She did an amazing job watching my high maintenance pup in her home while I was on vacation. She is incredibly kind, responsible, and my dog loved her. She followed all my instructions, including giving daily medications, to a T. I felt very comfortable leaving my pup with her and her dog Oatmeal. I definitely recommend Alysa and would use her again.

About: Hi! I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years through fostering, volunteering at animal rescues, and loving on pups of all kinds. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, so I’m available for check-ins, walks, or just some company for your pet when you need it. I’d love to help keep your furry friend happy and cared for while you’re away! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. Since I work from home, I have the flexibility to walk, feed, and check in on pets throughout the day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routine as closely as possible to keep their pet comfortable and stress-free. I provide fresh food and water, walks, playtime, and plenty of affection. I also make sure to keep the space clean and always send updates so you know your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I’m that person that will stop mid conversation & point out when I see a cute dog in public. I’ve always loved dogs and have had so much experience over the years. You can trust i’ll treat your pet like my own ❤️ I only work a couple days a week, usually the weekend and they aren’t long hours so I am available for any scheduling you can throw at me! I can usually try to make your request fit into my day somehow. I’ve done things ranging from 5 min potty breaks, multiple daily visits, & long walks. Whatever you need I can make happen. Don’t be afraid to ask 😁
