About: Taking walks around my pond, lots of cuddles, and play will be enjoyed at my home. Open to working with your feeding schedule preferences for your pet. Weekends, I will be home more to play and cuddle. I work outside of home during the week, but in the evenings I will have lots of time to play and have fun. If you have a crate, I would love for you to bring it for the dog. This way, if I am sitting with multiple pets while I'm gone, they are safe. Also, I will always have a leash in my complex.
“Goose was so happy staying with Leora. I was in town for business before heading to Carbondale to attend a memorial for my brother who passed in March. While I’ve had to work Goose stayed for both boarding and day care. He was happy to see me and happy to go back. I recommend Leora”

“Becky did an incredible job for our cat Suna. It was our first time leaving him alone for a weekend, but Becky made us feel at ease by going above and beyond and letting us know about the slightest changes in mood or behavior. She also spent a lot of time cuddling and playing with Suna and even washed his food containers. We could not be more happy. Becky, thank you so much and please come again!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Elderon
About: I've taking care of dog for a year plus now. My friends and family trust and relied on me to walk, feed, bathe and have their pets stay overnight at my house. My house is especially a good environment for dog because my yard is fenced and the dog have their own furniture and their own room. I'm currently a stay at home dog mom and a bake at home so I have plenty of time to play and walk your pet which I love doing. My yard is fenced and I have a friendly dog to keep your dog company while he/she is here. I have plenty of toys and treats available for the dogs as well.
“Great place for our spoiled fur baby!! Christy is always welcoming and today with our 2nd visit our pup was whining with excitement when we pulled in the driveway. With that, it means we’ll be returning whenever day care is needed! Our pup doesn’t like to be home alone and he gets the human love from Christy and the puppy playtime he needs with a nice crew of dogs!”
“Great experience, Brandi was able to accommodate my Velvet in short notice when we needed it the most, sent picture updates regularly and that made me feel more comfortable, also Velvet liked going back there which means Velvet enjoyed it too.”
“Absolutely amazing experience. Lovely family..so animal friendly. Our baby loves going to Morgan's home. She had the ability to learn how to be gentle with littles...run like crazy outside and play nice with other pups”
“Nick and his wife took excellent care of my two dogs! They sent pictures with updates throughout the day. I will definitely use them again if the need arises. 10/10 recommend for anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter!”
“Jennifer did a great job with our nervous little girl while we moved our son into UWSP. Perfect doggy introductions with her dogs and excellent communication made it so easy for us to leave her for the day!”
“Due to a family emergency, I needed last minute doggie daycare, but my regular provider was already booked. Leora allowed me to meet her on short notice. Thankfully, Leora and her fur babies, Kiwi and Daisy, made my boy, Toby, feel right at home. My boy seems happy to go to his new friends' home and content when he returns home. I trust Leora to watch after my fur kid and I do not trust easily. Thank you, Leora, for being a genuine pet lover.”
About: Having grown up on a farm, I have been around dogs and other animals all of my life. I love all animals and have a special fondness for dogs. I will treat your dog like my own. Please let me know about any special needs your dog has, from dietary restrictions to behavioral concerns-I am very accommodating and will do my best to make the transition from your house to mine as seamless as possible and would like your help in understanding how best to do that for your dog.

I am able to crate your pet if that is what they are used to for during the night. Please bring their crate with you and any other items they feel comfortable with while crated.

“Sarah is amazing. Lily is all puppy and has all the puppy energy. Sarah kept us up to date on the adventures of their day. Her professionalism is top notch. Sarah gave us helpful suggestions on training and recommended a couple toys Lily would benefit from. Lily had a great day.”
“Randee was so accommodating. He has a nice area for any dog to get there exercise and sunbathe. Tonka was certainly tired when he came home. We’ll definitely be asking Randee for another play date!”

I know how to groom, bathe and clip nails, I know how to train aswell when it comes to both cats and dogs, knowing i’ve pet sat for family and friends since i was young it grew on me for training them! I can trick, potty, behavior train too! I take care of my own pets everyday! i find it relaxing and enjoyable, it brings me great joy to spend time with animals and gives me a sense of purpose! I love to make sure everything is clean and tidy, dishes are clean as well as the animals, making sure they have what they need and have quality enrichment time.
About: I have always been around animals and have had pets my entire life, including cats, dogs, and even birds. I really enjoy taking care of all animals and providing excellent service. My family has a bird, two shih tzus, and a cat. I have frequently been around bigger breeds as well so I am comfortable with any-sized pet. I have experience walking other people's dogs and pet sitting for family and family friends. I am busy this summer preparing for college in the fall, but I wanted something that I care about to fill some of my free time. I am also saving up for college expenses. I would love to make pet sitting/walking a major part of my life. I would be able to watch pets at the owners' home. I will be able to watch them overnight, and or come over to check on them as well as taking walks and playing with them.
About: I would take my dog out for walks everyday since I was 13 and would make sure she was cared for, played with, and properly groomed I am currently working two jobs part-time, but I am often available to walk dogs (morning, day or afternoon) or cat-sit in my free time. In my home, we make sure our cats are fed at least twice a day and we scoop their litter everyday. When we had my senior dog, we would let her outside often to get some exercise and would bathe her at least once a month when she got dirty.
About: I have taken in many animals of all kinds throughout the years , Persistent and accountable caretaker. It is important to me to make a difference to all walks of life. Currently I am staying home with my young children, I am available most days of the week! And am flexible to you and your pets wishes. I have a few aquarium animals, no dogs or cats, but I also care for some of the animals next door quite often. We have small children if your pet is tolerable of them and crating is optional per your request.
About: I’ve grown up with many different kinds of animals from dogs to bunnies & hamsters. I’ve also been around cats my entire life we just never had one in the house because my mom was allergic. I love animals as they have been my entire life growing up! I have been dog sitting for a year now, since January 2025 Pet care takes place in my everyday life because I have an 8-year-old dog and just got a puppy recently. I love to take them on walks and play with them outside. I also love teaching them new tricks and making sure they have fresh food and water. I can take your dogs on walks if they need them daily. I would also love to play with them to keep them entertained and get there energy out. If your dog sleeps in the bed no worries I love to have a snuggle bug next me.
