Personalized care for your dog or cat - Jackson
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Jackson
“Jasmine had a wonderful time staying with Julia. I appreciate that she treated her like family and cared for her. I will definitely use her services again if she would be available and would be willing. I think Jasmine misses her playmate!”
“Melinda was great with my dogs. She has a huge back yard that they can run in. She loved on them everyday. She played with them and let them sleep in the bed. She has a dog door where my pups could go in and out as they wished. She has plenty of toys for the dogs to play with and even bought them some new ones while they were with her. She would play fetch with them everyday. I would highly recommend her to watch your dogs. My dogs were treated like royalty when they were with Melinda. I will definitely use her again.”
“Amy and Aaron were fantastic and took such good care of Cashmere! They put my mind at ease by sending daily updates with pictures and videos. I was able to enjoy my vacation and not stress about anything. I would recommend them to anyone!”
“Tori and Malik were great! The first picture posted let me know Bonnie was very comfortable. They had a beautiful area to walk her and I could tell she was having a great time. So appreciative of their caring and loving feelings toward my Bon! A million thanks.”
“Emily took great care of my two cats. She sent pictures everyday and I could tell they were in good hands. There were no signs of stress in none of them, which is impressive. Thank you Emily :)”
About: Welcome! ✨ My name is Eve, and your fur babies will feel right at home here 💛 I’ve cared for animals my entire life and have been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. I currently live on a farm in Makanda with my partner, where we share our home with horses, chickens, ducks, pigs, rabbits, five friendly farm dogs, and two farm cats. Our animals are well-socialized and love meeting new furry friends and people alike. Your pets will have plenty of space to play and explore, with a fenced backyard and lots of open acreage to enjoy safely. We take daily walks around the property, provide lots of love and attention, and enjoy sending photo updates throughout your pet’s stay so you can feel connected while you’re away. No worries if your fur babes can’t come stay with us — I’m also available to travel to you and care for them in the comfort of their own home while you’re away ✨ I treat every animal like family and strive to create a calm, loving, and comfortable environment for each guest 💛 I work from home, mostly available everyday of the week. I can check on your pet throughout the day for walks or simply for hang time. If needed, I’m able to provide animals the proper medication for their individual needs. I’ll always ensure that your fur babies are safe and given adequate attention! I love to give periodic picture updates while going on walks or during play time.
About: I’ve taken care of pets for over 2 years in our house and in others as well. I have two kids that help to learn responsibility, work ethic, and love! I teach and coach so my availability will vary but I’m available on most weekends, summers, and holidays. I look forward to the opportunity to take care of your babies! I have a very friendly family dog at our fenced in house. I live in a pet friendly area with multiple floors and levels to take care of your fur babies!
“Tina and her husband were great! They were available on short notice, able to accommodate my dog’s every need, always took him for enough exercise, and were very responsive to texts and were always sending updates and pics! 5 stars! Already booked again!”
About: Looking for an experienced animal sitter or affordable daycare that is flexible? Woof, I am your gal! From 13 years of combined dog training and behavioral training, I may as well be an animal mind reader! My approaches to pet care are holistic and it doesn't get more organic than loving and working with animals. I've also had many years of experience with small animals, fish and reptiles. If you need a small sitter, I'm all yours! MEET & GREET: I do my meet and greets differently than most. I have TWO meet and greets. The first is with owners alone for a tour of my house, going over routines and any additional care and concerns. This is very helpful as exciting dogs barking can be overwhelming. The second meet and greet is at a basic place like a park or OUTSIDE of dog park. My schedule and routine is pretty flexible, yet still manageable and structured. My daycare hours are Mon-Fri from 8AM to 5:30PM, though I can work around your schedule only on those days. Boarding is available 7 days a week during the night with check in times anywhere 2PM to 7PM, checkouts 8AM next day unless specified otherwise (in the event I am unavailable with a week advance notice). Dog walks and dog check-ins are only Saturday evenings, various hours. BITE POLICY: I understand that accidents happen and I am equipped to handle a bite from a dog/cat as well as ensure the safety of animal to animal bites. If your pet bites me, another person or pet, I will immediately contact you with details of the event. I will report ALL bites to Rover. Depending on the situation, someone will need to pick up pet(s) within 6 hours of contact and bite. It is up to Rover to issue a refund depending on circumstances. You MUST book your request through Rover and MUST pay via Rover for them to ensure a refund. I will NOT refund if you have paid via CashApp, check, Venmo, cash, etc. if you are required to pick up your pet(s). If I assess the situation and feel it's risky to board/sit your pet I will decline future requests. NOTE: You MUST book/CONFIRM your requests via ROVER! When you send your requests to me, I will book it and you must confirm via Rover in order for me to watch your pets. Pending request will be denied of service. NOTE: Boarding is charged by the NIGHT. For example, if you request for me to board your pets Jan 8th thru Jan 17th, they MUST be picked up ON the 17th, not the next day on Jan 18th. Please factor in how late you will arrive and if it's the next day you will have to pay for that night. This works just like a hotel stay. You will be charged a $20 fee for each pet if you need to extend stays. NOTE: Please make sure your pets are free from fleas and parasites! Upon meet and greet provide proof of recent medication, vet summaries, and other remedies. I no longer provide daycare services, only boarding, walks, and check ins. I currently have 5 cats and 1 dog. Walking and at home check ins are anywhere from 1-3 hours Sat evenings. I will walk around neighborhood only if a safe and trusted area. I also will care for cat in home visits. All required is specific walking and care instructions.
About: I have always had people come to me to take care of their pets because to me they are family and they deserve that treatment. I am an athlete at SEMO so I don’t get to see animals often, but they are one of my most favorite things in the world. Besides school and sports they would be my main priority and it would mean a lot to take care of them when I am available. I can easily take care of your dog the way you would like me to, but if you feel the need for them to have extra care such as taking walks or playing catch I can do that as well.

“Mariah really helped us out when my husband and I made a last minute day trip out of town. I haven’t had the chance to meet her in person since we had already left when she confirmed she could check on dog Jett, but we look forward to meeting Mariah and using her services again. Thank you Mariah!”
“Sylvia was fantastic!! She was super flexible when my job pushed around my travel dates for a work trip. She made sure my cat was well taken care of and gave her all the love, treats and playtime her little heart desired. She took the time to get to know her and earn her trust, which is a big step for a scaredy kitty! Thank you Syl!!”
“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.”

From the super cuddly and affectionate ones to the shy and skittish ones!

About: I've had cats and dogs most of my life. I've cared for all ages and sometimes even special needs animals. Communication with pet parents is a must. I have my kitten on a timed eating schedule with wet food to help her get all the nutrients she needs. She also has toys for stimulation, and I play with her daily to increase her stamina and decrease pet depression. For cats, I keep them indoors and make sure they have enough stimulation in their environment. For dogs, it would depend on the weather, the backyard setup, and the specific care that each different individual animal may need.
About: Dogs are the way to my heart. I’ve volunteered at the Humane Society, now called SEMO pets. Training is one of my favorite things to do, besides playing. I have experience with giving medicine to fur babies. I currently work part time so my schedule is for the most part pretty flexible. Rarely am I ever on vacation or far from home. I will feed, water, administer medications if needed, play, train, clean up any messes made, give all the attention they want. I treat all animals as if they were my own.
About: I have grown up around animals all my life living out in the country. I grew up on a chicken farm and then from there 20+ acres of land with many animals I had to learn to care for at a young age. Additionally, I have also pet sit for my family and friends when they are out of town. I just recently pet sitted for about two months and it was a blast. It’s safe to say, I truly do have a love for any and every animal. Full time and part time availability! Flexible schedules available as well. I will work with with you in whatever way I can schedule wise to meet your needs. I go to your home , and take your dog and/or cat for walks to parks, trail, or around the neighborhood. And of course if there is a little time left, we’ll play one more time before I leave!

I tailor my care to meet each pet's individual needs, whether that involves regular playtime, walks, feeding, or simply providing companionship. I prioritize their safety and well-being, ensuring they feel secure and loved. When caring for pets in my client's home, I follow their specific instructions carefully to maintain their routine and comfort. I provide exercise, feeding, and cuddles as needed, and I make sure the environment remains clean and secure. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages to give peace of mind that their pets are happy and well-cared-for. My goal is to make pets feel at home, whether in my care or theirs, providing peace of mind for busy pet parents.

“Jasmine had a wonderful time staying with Julia. I appreciate that she treated her like family and cared for her. I will definitely use her services again if she would be available and would be willing. I think Jasmine misses her playmate!”
“Melinda was great with my dogs. She has a huge back yard that they can run in. She loved on them everyday. She played with them and let them sleep in the bed. She has a dog door where my pups could go in and out as they wished. She has plenty of toys for the dogs to play with and even bought them some new ones while they were with her. She would play fetch with them everyday. I would highly recommend her to watch your dogs. My dogs were treated like royalty when they were with Melinda. I will definitely use her again.”

About: Welcome! ✨ My name is Eve, and your fur babies will feel right at home here 💛 I’ve cared for animals my entire life and have been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. I currently live on a farm in Makanda with my partner, where we share our home with horses, chickens, ducks, pigs, rabbits, five friendly farm dogs, and two farm cats.

I can check on your pet throughout the day for walks or simply for hang time. If needed, I’m able to provide animals the proper medication for their individual needs.
