“Ash was amazing!! They took excellent care of our two cats and provided consistent communication throughout the visits. I would highly recommend Ash to anyone looking for a pet sitter, they will go above and beyond for you and your pets!”

About: I've been around dogs my whole life and currently care for two of my own with ongoing health needs: one with hip dysplasia, who needs walks with breaks, physical therapy, and swimming sessions, and one with IBD, who needs a strict diet and daily medication. I'm comfortable giving medication, managing special diets, and following care instructions exactly as given. I also spent a year pet-sitting a neighbor's puppy and cat, including daily visits and boarding. I'm a parent to a toddler and available every weekday morning, roughly 8:30am to 12pm, for visits and walks. Caring for pets is part of my daily rhythm already, so your pet gets my full attention during our time together, not a rushed in-between. I follow each pet's routine and instructions closely, whether that's medication, a specific diet, or a particular walking pace. I'm attentive to small changes in behavior or appetite, since I manage similar things with my own dogs at home. I send photo updates during visits so you always know how things went.

About: Your pet won't just be watched, they'll be genuinely cared for. I’ve spent over 20 years caring for animals of all kinds, and that experience has taught me how to support pets with every temperament and need. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, playful, senior, or requires specialized care, I take the time to understand their routines, triggers, and comfort cues so they feel safe and secure from the moment they arrive. With a background in behavioral psychology and positive‑reinforcement handling, I understand the motivations, stress signals, comfort cues, and behavior patterns that shape how dogs respond to new environments. This deeper insight into how dogs process change, manage stress, and build trust allows me to read body language accurately, anticipate triggers, and support each dog with structure, reassurance, and training strategies that truly fit their emotional needs. It’s care that feels intuitive and comforting for everyday pups- and thoughtfully informed for dogs who benefit from more specialized, behavior‑aware support. I’ve cared for puppies to seniors, small to large breeds, multi‑pet households, and pets who need medications or structured routines. That range of experience gives me a strong, practical foundation in understanding behavior, building trust, and tailoring care to each dog’s unique personality. My favorite part of pet care is building trust. Nothing makes me happier than seeing a shy, anxious, or reserved pet relax and let their personality shine. Some of the most rewarding feedback I receive is when owners tell me their pet seemed more comfortable, playful, or affectionate than usual. I take the time to understand each dog’s emotional comfort zone so they feel safe being themselves. And when those moments happen, you'll get to see them too. I love sharing photos, videos, and updates so you can enjoy your pet's adventures while you're away!
 🛡️Safety First, Always 
I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is to give you peace of mind by providing attentive, thoughtful care and keeping you informed every step of the way.
 
 I stay fully engaged with your pet throughout their stay, whether we’re indoors relaxing or outdoors exploring. I’m attentive to their energy levels, comfort, and shifting needs, and I’m mindful of our surroundings- unfamiliar dogs, wildlife, weather, and anything that could affect their experience. I also have experience introducing dogs to one another thoughtfully and at a pace that keeps everyone comfortable. I guide interactions thoughtfully, recognizing early signs of curiosity, uncertainty, playfulness, or overstimulation. I believe great pet care comes from being engaged, observant, and proactive. From the moment your pet arrives until they're safely back with you, their well-being is my top priority.
 🌟Personalized Care for Every Pet & Every Owner No two pets are alike, and neither are their owners.
 Some families provide detailed instructions, schedules, and preferences. Others simply want peace of mind knowing their pet is in experienced hands. I genuinely enjoy both approaches.
  I'm naturally detail-oriented, attentive, and precautionary, so I carefully follow every instruction provided. At the same time, my years of experience allow me to confidently care for pets whose owners prefer a more relaxed approach. Whether you prefer frequent updates or occasional check-ins, detailed summaries or quick messages, I'll adapt to your communication style while providing the same level of attentive care. Your pet's care stays consistent regardless of how much or how little direction you provide. Pet care fits naturally into my schedule, allowing me to provide reliable, consistent attention throughout the week.
 Monday-Thursday: I work 8 AM-4 PM just minutes from home, so I can stop by during lunch for potty breaks, walks, check-ins, and extra attention when needed.
 Fridays: I work remotely, which gives me even more flexibility for walks, playtime, enrichment, and companionship throughout the day. Weekends: My schedule is open, making it easy to accommodate overnight stays, extended visits, and last-minute bookings.
 Because my routine is consistent, pets settle in quickly and receive steady, dependable care. Whether your pet enjoys activity, companionship, or simply a predictable routine, I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for during their stay. 🤍A Calm, Low-Stress Environment
 One of the things pets benefit from most in my care is that I don’t have any animals of my own. This means visiting pets receive my full attention in a calm environment without competing for space, affection, or supervision. For many dogs, especially anxious, young, senior, shy, or independent dogs, this can make a huge difference. They often settle in more quickly because the environment is quiet, predictable, and focused entirely on them.
 Your pet's routine becomes my routine. Whether they enjoy long walks, playtime, cuddling on the couch, frequent potty breaks, or simply relaxing nearby, I take the time to learn what helps them feel most comfortable.
 My building includes: • Private pet park- a safe, enclosed spot for pets to stretch out, play, and enjoy fresh air during their stay • Quiet park nearby for peaceful walks- ideal for pets who prefer gentle environments over the hustle of community dog areas • Pet wash room- perfect for muddy paws, quick rinses, and keeping pets fresh and comfortable during their stay • Elevator and stair access- every pet gets an option based on their comfort and mobility needs All designed to help pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for.
 
For boarding/daycare, pets who prefer space from other pets can enjoy a one‑household stay.
 
 💛Extra Support & Attention
 My partner is also a lifelong experienced animal lover and often spends her days off with me. Pets naturally gravitate toward her kind, playful energy with them. She provides an extra set of eyes, hands, and attention, which can be especially helpful for puppies, active dogs, and multi-pet households. Like me, she respects your pet, routines, and home, and takes their care seriously. 🏡 House Sitting: Respectful Pet Care & Home Care
 When caring for your pet in your home, my goal is for you to return to a happy pet and a home that looks exactly as you left it. I come fully prepared with my own laptop, hotspot, meals, and daily essentials. I don't require Wi-Fi, snacks, streaming services, or household supplies. Most of my time is spent playing with, walking, cuddling, grooming, or simply spending quality time with your pet. I closely follow feeding schedules, household rules, training routines, and walking expectations. I also: • Bring in mail (just lmk)/take out trash • Vacuum pet hair (just lmk) • Keep food and water areas clean • Tidy up after myself • Wipe down surfaces I use • Handle pet-related cleanups • Respect all security measures and gates
 You'll never have surprise visitors, smoking, parties, or drinking in your home. I treat your home with the same care and respect I would expect someone to show mine.
 One of my strongest qualities is being a respectful house guest. Your home, routines, and pet's comfort matter to me.

“Shqipe was Fantastic with our dog, Molly. She gave her walks, lots of love and attention, all with a pretty last minute notice, that we needed help watching Molly this past few days. We will definitely look to recommend and ask for her help if we need someone to watch Molly in the future again!”

“Jedidiah took good care of my cats while I was away, handling a few curveballs. I felt better knowing someone was watching out for them while I was away. Thanks, Jedidiah!”

“Aga was really wonderful with my cat. He is shy and doesn't like to come out when strangers are there. Aga sent pictures and every time he was "out and about." Everything was perfectly in order when I came home. Aga is great and I highly recommend.”

Debbie S.

“Jo’Ell is amazing with our puppy! First and foremost, she is always on time and always communicates with us about our puppy. She provides several photos and engages with our puppy. The best is that she brings over different toys and puzzles to help our puppy learn and stimulate their brain. I could not ask for a better person to help us with our dog. Thank you so much.”

About: I’ve owned and cared for dogs and cats my entire life, so taking care of animals has always been a big part of my life. I currently have two cats and a bearded dragon of my own, and I understand how much our pets mean to our family. I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities, routines, and needs, and I’m attentive to making sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply some company, I’ll treat them with the same love and care I give my own pets. I work primarily as a server and bartender in the evenings, which gives me plenty of availability during the day to care for your pets! I am always off on Tuesdays and Sundays, so I have full availability those days for walks, drop-in visits, and extended stays. On the days I work, I’m generally available throughout the morning and afternoon, and can work with you to find a time that fits your pet’s routine. I’m flexible and happy to accommodate different schedules whenever possible! My top priority is making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and make sure to follow their pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, medications if needed, and plenty of attention and playtime. I’m also very attentive to doors, gates, leashes, and anything else that could affect a pet’s safety. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets and your home, so I treat both with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’ll always keep you updated with pictures and messages so you know your pet is happy and doing well while you’re away.

“Esha was great with our last minute request. She took great care of our two pups, one who is anxious around new people. Thanks Esha!”

About: I have a bachelor’s degree in Animal Science from the University of Illinois. My education helped build a foundation and understanding of animal welfare, behavior, nutrition, and safe animal handling. I have over two years of professional experience training dogs in basic on-leash obedience, including heel, sit, stay, place, recall, and other foundational commands. I was trained by master trainer Joel Slaven, who has trained animals for movies, SeaWorld, Busch Gardens, and worked extensively alongside Jack Hanna. In addition to dog training, I have worked as a Kennel Technician, where I helped care for up to 50 dogs at a time. My responsibilities included feeding, administering oral and subcutaneous medications, and providing daily exercise through walks and free running in a large pasture. This experience gave me the opportunity to work with a wide variety of breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I also have experience working at a dog daycare, where I supervised playgroups of 25 or more dogs and learned how to manage different personalities and energy levels in a group setting. Outside of my professional experience, I own a two-year-old English Bulldog. Her stubborn personality and high energy have taught me a great deal about patience, consistency, and adapting my approach to each individual dog. Overall, my experience has strengthened my passion for working with dogs and my commitment to providing them with patient, knowledgeable, and compassionate care. I have an open and flexible schedule, which allows me to provide dog walks/or home visits in the early morning, throughout the day and into the evening. I am happy to work around you and your pets schedule to provide dependable great care. While I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I will treat each animal as if they were my own, giving them love, patience, attention, and dependable care while following their normal routines.

“Collette kept us informed on the well-being of our cats for our whole trip, which made it so much easier to enjoy ourselves. She was able to coax our shy and introverted kitty out of hiding while we were gone, and took very good care of both.”

Casey G.

“Would definitely use Glen again! He was kind, consistent and trustworthy. Took care of our 2 seniors dogs while we were out of town. He was always on time and patient with them. Kept in touch and sent pictures daily, made us feel very comfortable while away.”
