Katie and her family are delightful. Bebe is usually cautious meeting new people. Bebe seemed totally comfortable as this kind family held her, petted her and scratched her tummy. The cute photos they sent looked like Bebe Heaven! We feel very grateful for this sweet family, Thanks Katie !

She's been nothing but accommodating, loving, and kind to him! We feel very lucky to have introduced her and Ernie ❤️

Jessica and Luis are ah-mazing!! I reached it to them on short notice and they were still willing to meet with me and car for my 2 cats while I visited some friends for the weekend. It was my first time using a pet sitter so I was a little nervous but they made me feel at ease leaving Smokey and Pippa for a few days. They sent pictures and texted updates after each visit. Highly recommend them and will not hesitate to book with them again!

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for the last 7-8 years for my family, friends, and neighbors. They have trusted me with walking, feeding, and overall loving their furry friends! When my family first got our dog in 2020, I assisted in training him and learning how to take care of a puppy. I have also helped to take care of my roommates pet dog and cat in these last few months as well! During the summer of 2024, my dog suddenly went paralyzed and lost function of his back legs. We had to learn how to take care of him and walk him using unconventional ways, while teaching him how to learn to walk again, so I have experience with a dog who has been partially disabled (but he has regained his ability to walk and is doing great!!) I recently graduated from Miami University, Ohio with my masters degree in speech-language pathology. I just moved back to Illinois and am looking to do some dog walking and pet care/love this summer before starting a new job in the schools this upcoming August as a speech-language pathologist. I will adhere to any requests that the client has. I am willing to put them in their crates, give them treats, play with them in the yard, or go for a nice long walk with them. It really comes down to the clients preference and I will stick to their normal routine!!

About: I’ve cared for all kinds of pets—dogs, cats, and even a gecko—and have experience working at a petting zoo. I’m a proud pet parent to two dogs and two cats, so I know how important great care is. I’m comfortable giving medication, caring for senior pets, and supporting reactive pets, all while making sure every animal feels safe, happy, and loved. I’m currently in my last semester at ECC and I’m only taking a few classes, so I have plenty of free time during the week to help out! I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed, but I’m willing to do whatever I can to keep you and your pet comfortable.

Zach did a fantastic job! I booked him to clean out for very dirty litter boxes and replace them with fresh letter. I was very impressed with his ability to get right to the work at hand, get the job done, and leave everything looking great. He was so fast, he had time to tackle one of two of the cats water fountains, which were also overdue for cleaning and refilling. My kitties will love that their favorite fountain is working again. Next time, he’ll tackle the other fountain and I have no doubt that that will be done efficiently as well. Thank you, Zach! Nice to meet you, and you’ll be number one on my call

About: I have taken care of animals for it seems like my whole life. I have experience administering medication both orally and through syringes and love to spoil dogs when walks and cuddles. I work for a school district so I my school day runs from 7:30-2:30, so no pet would be alone for long. I can do weekdays and weekends. I have experience going into someone’s home and watching their animals from there. I find it’s easier for on them when they are in their own home environment. I follow your routine and instructions and will let you know if I have any questions or anything comes up.

Shalyn and Joe were really flexible and worked us into their schedule to help us out when we needed care for our girls. Super helpful and appreciate them for that. Our girls always love their time at their place, and their shepherd gets along great with Lady and Jazzi. The kids love our dogs and shower them with affection. We are going to miss having such great sitters since we are moving. If anyone needs A++ service and love for your pooches for a great price, these are your people!

Jackie was amazing with my energetic boy Tucker!! He loved playing in her backyard and snuggling with her and her pups on the couch. He is tired and happy after picking him up. It was my first time dropping him at someone’s house for Rover so I was very anxious, however Jackie eased that immediately when I met her and her two cute pups. I will 100% use her services again next time I’m in the area.

About: Since a child, I have been trusted to watch, walk, and care for neighbors and friends dogs. I still care for my friends and families dogs. I grew into loving the difficult dogs, training lots of different sports and dog behavior. I love seniors/special needs who just need some TLC. Puppies are my absolute favorite. I enjoy the bond and training from the start. I'm currently a stay-at-home mom looking to start working again and thought this would be a great fit due to my passion with animals. I have a flexible schedule and am available to board most days. Dogs will be given love and attention, play, walks, really whatever they are into or owner needs. My own crew loves to swim in our pool, play frisbee or fetch the chuck-it. I have 3 custom built in crates that are massively oversized. I can keep dogs separate from my own or integrate. I absolutely love working with puppies and dogs and exposing them to new fun things!

Marilyn and her son Adam were awesome. I took my 11 month old and 50 pound pitbull mix to them for a few hours and it looks like my pup had a great and fun time. From when my pup first met them, she was shy but she warmed up to Marilyn and Adam within minutes. She came home pretty tired as she probably ran around quite a bit and was entertained by them during their care. Thank you both!

We loved working with Katey! We left our fur baby in her care and we couldn’t be happier!!! She was absolutely fantastic! She went above and beyond in keeping us updated. It was the first time we had to leave our doggo in someone else’s care. So the texts and pictures meant a lot! :) Katey is super kind and sweet! And she has an awesome family! We have already booked her again!

About: As a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet owner, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. I have a male Chihuahua-Terrier mix who stays with me part-time and gets along well with other dogs. I am the go-to pet sitter for friends and family, because my goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, indoor or outdoor play sessions, or relaxing with lots of cuddles, I’ll tailor their care to their unique personality and routine. I also have experience taking care of senior dogs and am comfortable administering medication, preparing special diets, and providing extra care and attention. I love having dogs around and would be delighted to welcome your pet into my home. For everyone’s comfort and safety, I ask that dogs be friendly around children, adults, and other dogs. Meet and greets—virtual or in person—are required before booking so we can make sure it’s a great fit for everyone. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family member! I work a flexible hybrid schedule, with three days per week at home and my office is close enough to come home midday on office days for walks and all your pet’s needs. I live in a spacious townhome and do not have a fenced yard, but if your dog enjoys leashed walks and outdoor playtime, I have easy access to open outdoor spaces, parks, and nature trails. In my home, dogs are a part of the family and welcome to make themselves comfortable just as they would in your home. They are welcome to relax on the couch, snooze on the bed, or use their own bed or crate if that’s most comfortable. I want your dog (and you) to feel relaxed and safe until your return.

Jocelyn made me feel confident and at ease leaving my puppy, Winnie, in her care alongside her well-mannered dog, Bella. Caring for a puppy comes with added responsibility, but Jocelyn handled it well. Positive experiences and structure are vital for Winnie’s development in her first year, and I feel incredibly fortunate to have found someone who will help shape her into the best version of herself!

About: I’ve cared for dogs my entire life, so I’m very comfortable handling a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and routines. I focus on creating a calm, consistent environment where dogs feel safe and understood while their owners are away. I pay close attention to behavior and individual needs, making sure each dog is comfortable, well cared for, and sticking as closely as possible to their normal routine. What sets me apart is that I’m highly observant and reliable—I treat every dog as an individual and make sure they feel secure and cared for in my home. Hanging out with pets is honestly my favorite part of my the day! I make time for walks, play sessions,and chill time every day-it never feels like work if tails are wagging. I have a fenced in yard and a friendly dog amd cat. I can accommodate to your needs. I also have a dog park near by. ..

Fred has been an absolute blessing to our family. Moochy like him immediately and trusted him. She’s usually pretty skittish. Fred was always on time, willing to be flexible if needed, and was just really good with Moochy. I needed someone who was strong to walk mooch because she’s big and strong. Fred had no trouble with it. I had absolute faith in Fred’s ability to handle her. And when Mooch saw his car pull up, she was so happy. I have no trouble recommending Fred to be your dog walker.

About: I’ve always loved animals and pets and have been taking care of them my entire life. I’ve had a few jobs where I was a doggy day care specialist and have worked as one for 3 years. I have a good sense of how dogs act when anxious nervous or even excited. My job included staying over night with dogs along with walking them and feeding them. I do work at restaurants in the afternoons during the week and weekends till 8. I have three days off a week in which I can daycare dogs and watch over them. Normally Tuesday and Wednesday. Walking is no big deal my availability is always open for walking I provide attentive, personalized care for pets both in my home and in clients’ homes. I make sure each pet stays on their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, fresh water, walks, playtime, and any specific care instructions. In a client’s home, I also focus on keeping pets comfortable in their familiar environment while maintaining a clean and respectful space. In my home, I create a safe, calm environment where pets get plenty of supervision, attention, and exercise. My goal is always to make pets feel comfortable, cared for, and stress-free while their owners are away.

About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my eight years of hands-on experience with a wide variety of animals—not just dogs and cats, but also birds, chickens, and horses. I bring a calm, confident presence that helps animals feel at ease, even those with special needs or unique temperaments. I understand that every pet is different and take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and personalities. My background in animal care goes beyond the basics, and I treat each pet like my own—with patience, respect, and genuine love. Whether it’s a cuddle session, a long walk, or specialized care, I’m here to provide reliable, attentive service you can count on. Pet care is part of my daily routine, both at work and at home. I’m a kennel attendant at a veterinary clinic, so caring for animals is literally what I do every day. Before and after work, I’m already on a routine with my own two Aussies and three cats — feeding, walking, and playtime are built right in. That means I’m used to early mornings, late evenings, and structured schedules, and I’m happy to work around what’s best for your pets. I always follow your instructions whether that be taking your dog out on a long lead, or constant watching in your fenced in yard. I make sure they get fed on time, potty breaks if they need them a certain time apart, ie every hour, etc.

About: I have had a long love for animals,growing up with cats and dogs. As an adult we had a beloved German Shepherd mix that was our ring bearer. And we were blessed to have him for 11 years. Now I'm a proud dog mom to 1 terrier mix. I've taken care of dogs, cats and other animals since I was in Middle School for neighbors and friends. I love going on walks and playing fetch. I work part-time at a school so right now I'm off during the summer but during the school year I would be able to work around my schedule and have several days off during the school week to pop in before and after or on my days off. I would love to pop into your house for visiting. I will follow your dogs normal routine. Please let me know how to help your animal feels most comfortable.

About: I’ve cared for all kinds of pets—dogs, cats, and even a gecko—and have experience working at a petting zoo. I’m a proud pet parent to two dogs and two cats, so I know how important great care is. I’m comfortable giving medication, caring for senior pets, and supporting reactive pets, all while making sure every animal feels safe, happy, and loved. I’m currently in my last semester at ECC and I’m only taking a few classes, so I have plenty of free time during the week to help out! I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed, but I’m willing to do whatever I can to keep you and your pet comfortable.

About: Hello! If you are looking for someone who is honest, caring, energetic, and willing to spend as much time with your animal I would be happy to help out! I have grown up with dogs and cats since I was little. I rescued a German Shepherd last winter and he brings me nothing but joy and laughter! I had rescued a large German Shepherd a few years prior but he recently passed away. I take my dog on daily walks and would love to do that for your pet too! If you would just like me to stop by to play with your pet or let them out I would be happy to do that as well! If you have any questions please feel free to ask me! I currently work full time but I am always willing to spend my free time with your animal! I am available during the week before 11 am and free at anytime most weekends! I am willing to walk your dog a few times a day for at least 20 minutes or more! If you have a fenced yard, I will play with them in the backyard. I am knowledgeable of crate training, prong collars, etc.

She came over every day to walk her while I was away and my family was working. She even checked to make sure my dog was given her medicine and gave it to her if needed. I got messages/updates and pictures every day which really put me at ease. Not only did she take excellent care of my baby, but she also checked in on me to see how my trip was, which was really nice of her. Stephanie really went above and beyond just walking Charlie, she took the time to make sure she had everything she needed and gave her plenty of love. I will absolutely use her in the future!!

Perfect experience. I needed someone almost last minute and Myrlonette was the first call back and was I glad. She sent photos of my dog throughout the sitting and that was a nice touch. She is local with a lovely home with large high fenced yard. I would use her services again! Thanks so much!

Another fantastic stay for Dexter! He truly feels like part of the family at Jocelyn's house. Every time he visits, he’s treated like a little king! We always have peace of mind knowing he’s receiving exceptional care and attention. Highly recommend!

About: As a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet owner, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. I have a male Chihuahua-Terrier mix who stays with me part-time and gets along well with other dogs. I am the go-to pet sitter for friends and family, because my goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, indoor or outdoor play sessions, or relaxing with lots of cuddles, I’ll tailor their care to their unique personality and routine. I also have experience taking care of senior dogs and am comfortable administering medication, preparing special diets, and providing extra care and attention. I love having dogs around and would be delighted to welcome your pet into my home. For everyone’s comfort and safety, I ask that dogs be friendly around children, adults, and other dogs. Meet and greets—virtual or in person—are required before booking so we can make sure it’s a great fit for everyone. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family member! I work a flexible hybrid schedule, with three days per week at home and my office is close enough to come home midday on office days for walks and all your pet’s needs. I live in a spacious townhome and do not have a fenced yard, but if your dog enjoys leashed walks and outdoor playtime, I have easy access to open outdoor spaces, parks, and nature trails. In my home, dogs are a part of the family and welcome to make themselves comfortable just as they would in your home. They are welcome to relax on the couch, snooze on the bed, or use their own bed or crate if that’s most comfortable. I want your dog (and you) to feel relaxed and safe until your return.

We had a great experience boarding our dog with Jackie! She was very thorough and respectful of all of our dog's needs and preferences. We received updates and pictures a few times a day, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dog was having a wonderful time—especially having Jackie's dogs as playmates. She was very capable and attentive, and we felt very comfortable leaving our dog in her care. Marty is looking forward to staying at Jackie's again!

Michele gave excellent care to our dogs. She provided daily pictures or videos and was always responsive to any of our questions. We would highly recommend her as a sitter and plan to use her again in the future.
