“Rachelle was amazing! She was very communicative and sent several pictures of our fur kids at every check in. She even made fast friends with some of our very shy cats. The house was in good order when we returned home and you could tell Rachelle took great care of the pets, food stations, and litter boxes while we were gone. Will definitely use her again soon!”
“Kayla was a perfect sitter. She took the time to get to know our cats, play with them, make them feel comfortable, and followed all our instructions perfectly. She communicated well and sent great photos of them!”
“If you’re on the hunt for a pet sitter your search ends here. I couldn’t have asked for a more ideal person to watch my cat, Carlos while I was away for a week. My original sitter fell through the day before I was leaving so in a desperate attempt to find someone I messaged a few people on Rover. Lazslo responded almost immediately and we set up a time to meet and go over his care. This is the first time I’ve ever needed to hire a sitter and I left for vacation with great peace of mind knowing my cat was in good hands. Laszlo sent updates with pictures every day, gave Carlos his medication like a pro, spent quality time with him everyday and even brought us our mail. Laszlo is so thoughtful and trustworthy, I can’t express that enough. Hire this man!”

About: Hey, there! My name is Elena:) Originally, I’m from a small town in Missouri. I’m currently staying in Carbondale, IL to continue my education. I have worked in the animal field for over 3 years now. I knew from very early on in my childhood that I wanted to help people. Helping is my passion. And by caring for these furry critters-even the ones without fur-I can also help you guys! Working as a veterinary technician and dog trainer has taught me how to care for breeds of all different sizes, ages and temperaments. To me, taking care of animals is a privilege and a joy.

So, I’m available anytime after 5:00pm during the week and available all day on the weekends. Currently, I cannot pet sit your pet from my home. Simply because my apartment doesn’t allow dogs:’) I have one cat named KitKat. She greets me in the morning with soft meows-breakfast time. And I greet her by helping her get a big stretch! She loves morning and evening stretches. Although she is quite the independent cat, I still have toys, scratching posts and a cat tree to keep her entertained. My cat means the world to me. Caring for her and loving her is a privilege, just as it would be to care for your pets:)
About: Hello! My name is Gracie, a graduate student living in the Carbondale area. I'm looking for furry walking buddies to make some extra money in my free time. From growing up on my family's hobby farm and watching friend's pets, I have over 9 years of experience caring for dogs and other types of animals, both small and large. I have a wonderful cat named Whispy. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you're in need of animal care. I look forward to meeting you and your dog (or other fur babies). You're welcome to send me a message with any or all inquires. I'd love to get to know you dog or other pet more. In the meantime, have a wonderful day! I’m currently job hunting after graduation, so my current availability is very flexible to suit your schedule. I am willing to work around your schedule to meet your pet care needs. I usually spend my time accompanying the pets when I’m animal sitting for my clients. I can’t help myself but play with pets when they’re nearby, so expect lots of exercise and enrichment :)
About: I’ve taken care of animals for a long time. I first started with my mom at a young age. She taught me how to take care of animals and how to respect them. As I got older I was often asked by friends and family to watch over their furry loved ones. This included feeding, walking, and give them lots of TLC. With clear instructions I have also given pets the medicine that they needed at the time. I love both dogs and cats and have experience caring for both. Right now, I am the proud dog mom of an 8 year old Lab-Akita mix. She’s the love of my life and would do anything for her.Being a pet owner myself, I understand the joys and anxieties that come with caring for them so I will be ensure to provide excellent care. I am a military spouse who just received my is bachelor's degree. My weekly routine is mostly open as I am searching for a full time job. Right now my weeks are very flexible and I will be able to work with you on meeting your pets needs. My goal will be to make sure your pet is as comfortable as possible as you are away. I will try to keep them occupied so they aren’t missing you too much. I love to go on walks myself, so if it’s allowed I will try to walk them plenty. Any care instructions that are provide will be followed to the letter.
About: I have taken care of several types of dogs since I was little. I grew up in the country and helped take care of my neighbors dogs and animals whenever I could. I have watched my friends pets before and respected any care methods they have. I took care of puppies and dogs pretty much my whole life. I trained puppies and always pay attention to body language and behavior. I work every other weekend currently at a motorcycle range. My week days are free and so are my nights. I take online classes right now since it is the summer semester. I have my own cat so I keep his space clean and tidy. I feed him on a set schedule and make sure he has plenty of space for his zoomies and play time. He is a single cat and likes it that way. For client’s homes, I will follow any and all instructions for their pet and keep their home tidy and keep their pets clean as well, including litter boxes, food spills, etc.
About: My names Megan, I’ve been a vet tech for 4+ years and have a bachelors in animal science. I also have 4 dogs of my own. I work full time (8am-5pm) as a vet tech, & have a 5 year old daughter. But I’m able to work around and take care of your pups! With my experience of animals, I’m able to walk, feed, play with, and administer medicine to your fur baby. Preferably in the fur babies home so they don’t feel uncomfortable or scared.
“Chelsey was just the BEST!! We were so anxious about leaving them. To make matters worse, there was a bad storm in the forecast. She took the very best care of them and we will definitely be using her again!!”
About: Caring for animals is more than just something I do — it’s something I genuinely love. Over the past 7+ years, I’ve had the privilege of working in both vet clinics and boarding facilities, where I’ve built up not only experience, but also a deep understanding of how to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. From energetic puppies to older pets with special needs, I know how to meet each animal where they are. I’m comfortable giving medications, keeping up with routines, and offering gentle support to pets who need a little extra attention. I’ve helped puppies build confidence with consistent potty training and positive reinforcement, and I know how to spot when something’s off before it becomes a bigger concern. More than anything, I aim to be a calming, loving presence for your pet while you’re away—someone they can trust and feel at home with. Your pet’s happiness and well-being will always be my top priority. I am extremely flexible and can work around my schedule to be there to provide for your pet and their needs (whatever they may be)! I am more comfortable caring for pets in client’s home as I live in an apartment and my boyfriend is allergic to most dogs and some cats.
“Allie did a fantastic job watching our 3 fur babies!

We loved the photo and visit updates and seeing them so happy! Thank you, Allie, for doing such a super job! We will definitely utilize your services again in the near future!”
