Pet Sitting West Peoria

“Sara is the best sitter in this area, every time she lets me know the health of my cats and feeds my fish as well, though it is not her duty. Super appreciate the effort she puts into my pets when I was not around.”

About: I have been working with and loving dogs for as long as I can remember! I’m responsible, patient, and dedicated to keeping every pet happy, safe, and loved I’m currently a college student and have a good amount of availably especially in the afternoons. I also live in dorms, so I won’t be able to board dogs unfortunately! I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved in their own home. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully, keep pets supervised, and provide plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I’ll treat your home and your pets with respect and care!

“I couldn't be happier with Serenity's care for my dog! She was attentive, reliable, and treated my pup like her own. It was clear she has a natural love for animals, and I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in her care. Serenity sent regular updates, which made the experience even better. I highly recommend her for anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter!”

“Whitney followed all instructions and contacted us immediately when the entry was locked (our fault on our end) but we would totally have her watch our doodle sometime in the near future!”

About: I visit my friends' dogs for cuddles and play. (I can't have my own fur babies due to family members' allergies.) I work in Peoria schools so am used to being firm and caring with humans. I'm also very active and enjoy walking in all (okay, most) weather. As my own kids get older and I add a side gig, pet care is a natural fit! I work school hours so am often available early mornings, evenings, and weekends. I am also available some holidays. I usually know my schedule weeks or months ahead, making it easy for you to plan for your vacation! I ask pet owners for pet-specific tips when I first meet the pet, or even earlier. I want to know where their pets go when they are stressed, what they are allowed to do and climb on, and of course their feeding and exercise schedules. I don't currently care for pets in my home due to family members' allergies.

About: With experience from a pet store where I learned about nutrition, training service dogs, and handling a variety of animals at the zoo, I offer well-rounded pet care. As a dedicated pet parent to four dogs, I understand the unique needs of different breeds and provide personalized, knowledgeable care. As a masters student, pet care is seamlessly integrated into my daily and weekly routine. I balance my studies with caring for my own pets by ensuring their needs are met before I do anything I have to do When caring for pets in my home or a client's home, I prioritize their comfort and well-being. I follow their routines, offer plenty of attention, and ensure they feel safe and loved while maintaining a clean, stress-free environment tailored to their needs.

About: I had dogs my whole childhood, and have had cats in adulthood. As a kid, I loved caring for and training our dogs, both basic commands and some fun tricks! I was responsible for letting them out when they needed, feeding them on time, playing with them, and taking them on walks. I wanted to be a dog trainer for years, and had a training manual I would study to know all the right actions and reactions for different situations and behaviors. I can't say I remember many specifics for training, but I definitely have plenty experience in basic care and play. As of right now, I am available all day on Sundays, and until 2pm all other days— perfect for midday walks or drop-ins while you're at work! I can provide basic care for both cats and dogs in their homes. I will feed, play, cuddle, walk, and even clean up after if necessary.

About: I have always had a love for dogs, growing up with 2 dogs of my own. I currently have a bichon poodle mix named Cody, who is my best friend. I am a recent graduate of Northeastern University looking to get outside, meet dogs, and make a little bit of money before I head off to medical school in August! I currently work per-diem and will have plenty of time during the week and weekend to hang out and walk your dogs! I love to be outside and walking dogs is the perfect way to get some exercise and sun in, while helping out our adorable little friends. I love to have fun with our furry friends, but J will ALWAYS put safety first. I am a certified EMT (for humans 😊) but this training extends to pets as well. I am also certified in Dog/Cat/Pet First Aid and CPR and have extensive training in this area.

About: I am an avid pet lover who has taken care of many animals over the years, including my own who got very ill but is thankfully in remission. Neighbors, friends and family have all relied on me to look at their loved furry friends both in my own home and as well their home depending on the desired environment for their pets comfort. I take great pride in paying attention to detail while also having the fun and attention with each level of desired of the above listed. If selected for your care, activities would include walks, run time in my fence in backyard, toy time and snacks if provided or approved with any dietary restrictions honored. I currently work from home so time spent with them will be flexible and could be worked around at your leisure. All around, pet enthusiast and looking to contribute to the pet loving market to fulfill your pets needs! I am currently working part time with another flexible job where I am able to make my own schedule so my availability can be put to excellent use to your advantage. I have a fenced in back yard with 2 friendly dogs of my own to keep your pets both welcomed and entertained. I can also crate your dog(s) if need be. Our dogs are both very well trained and will gladly welcome any company offered.

“I am ecstatic with Mandy's help with my dog, Jesus. He is naturally timid and he has warmed up to her in less than a week, even after a cross country move. When I come home from work, I can tell that a responsible, caring person has paid him a visit because he is relaxed and happy. Mandy is very quick to respond and communicates very well. I would highly recommend Mandy and greatly appreciate her support!”

About: I’ve been training dogs of all ages and breeds for over 30 years. I specialize in shy and fearful dogs and dogs who need to burn off mental energy. I am available during the day on weekdays and occasional evenings. Focused attention on making individualized plans for your pets unique situations that increases the canine human bond. All training is done at your home or a pet friendly business or area with your dogs well being an absolute priority. Martingale collars are the preferred method to keep your pup safe

About: I have been caring for animals since the age of 5. I have always loved animals and wanted a job where I could spend as much time with them as possible. I have raised and trained all of my own pets. I lived on a farm for years caring animals of all ages and sizes. I enjoy anything outdoors but can make the best of any situation. I’m experienced in animal therapy as well. I have many friends and family who have relied on me to care of pets while away or sick. I am an animal lover and would make sure your pets are cared for as if they were my own. I do not currently work as I stay home. Being able to do a job (which I wouldn’t even call it a job) working with animals would be a dream. I care for all pets as if they were my own while abiding by the owners rules. I enjoy being outside as much as possible so exercise is no problem. I also can offer baths/mail trimmings/desheddings as well. I am here to care for your pet as you would yourself.

“Tina was eager to help and communicated well. She showed concern and support for my sister's cats. Would gladly have her help us again! Thanks! :)”

About: I’ve always loved being around animals and have experience taking care of my own dogs every day. I have two friendly dogs, Bailey (a Husky/Aussie mix) and Berkley (a Bernedoodle), so I’m used to dogs with different personalities and energy levels. I know every dog is different, so I’ll follow your routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your dog wants to play, go for a walk, or just relax and get some attention. I’m currently a part-time college student and also DoorDash for extra income, which gives me a flexible schedule. I’m available most weekdays starting at noon or earlier, and I can often accommodate weekend requests as well. I make sure every pet gets plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and care while they’re with me. I’ll always communicate with you and send updates so you know your pet is happy and well cared for. pet safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play and get exercise. I also have two friendly dogs, Bailey (a Husky/Australian Shepherd mix) and Berkley (a Bernedoodle), who love meeting and playing with other dogs. If your dog prefers their own space or needs a slower introduction, I’m happy to keep them separated to ensure everyone stays comfortable and safe. I’ll treat your pet like they’re part of my own family! I’ll follow any instructions you provide regarding feeding, medications, routines, or special care. :)

About: I have grown up with dogs, cats, birds, and reptiles. I have a special place in my heart for all of them. I currently share my home with one Great Dane and four kitties (all rescues!) I am here to help on weekday evenings, holidays, and weekends. My home has a dedicated room for cat boarding and my goal is to be safely equipped for dogs soon! I have house sat for many families and their pets throughout my life, have volunteered at and donated to local shelters, and have been a contributing member of the ASPCA and WWF for 10+ years. A “fun fact” about me is that I was featured in the National Geographic World magazine in 1999 for raising money and awareness about both local and national animal welfare needs 🩷 I work approximately 15 minutes from my home and utilize lunchtime (NLT 12:00 PM) to check on the pets. My schedule is typically Monday-Friday one week then Monday-Thursday the next week (alternating) and am home by 4:15 PM each day. I work two weekends out of every three month period and have all federal holidays off. My home has a small bedroom that is set up for cats 🐈 to enjoy, with more to come. Their room includes a scratching post seated under a window, tons of toys, and an automatic litter box connected to my phone so that I can always monitor it (two large stainless steel litter boxes or a Breeze pellet system are also available, if preferred). There is also a camera in your room for an extra set of eyes! You will have stainless steel food, drinking fountain (stainless steal bowls available, if preferred), a large pet bed, soft blankets , treats - only if allowed - and plenty of other options depending on your kitty’s needs and preferences. My cats have their own spacious, separate area set up downstairs. They are all friendly, altered, and vaccinated (records available upon request). My dog 🐶 is house trained and vaccinated as well. Though he loves everyone, especially kitties, your fur baby will stay in their own room for everyone’s safety and comfort. Floors, litter boxes, and food/water bowls are sanitized daily. The closest vet is approximately 15 minutes away and the Peoria County emergency vet is around 25 minutes from my home. I am happy to provide additional information, photos, and references upon request.

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have several years of pet-sitting experience. I’ve cared for pets for multiple families, including a long-term recurring client who I visit during the week for potty breaks and companionship. I offer drop-in visits, dog walks, and overnight care in your home. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities, as well as cats and other animals. I’ve even cared for farm animals including chickens, geese, and pigs! I know every pet has their own personality and routine, so I try to keep things as familiar and comfortable as possible while you’re away. Whether that means a quick potty break during a long workday, meals and playtime, a walk, or staying overnight while you’re on vacation, I’ll make sure your pets get plenty of attention and care. I also love taking photos and sending updates so you can see how your pets are doing while you’re away! I work from home and have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide pet care throughout the day. I offer drop-in visits, potty breaks, walks, and overnight care depending on your pet’s needs. For overnight stays, I may leave for work, errands, family time, or other pet-care visits, but I’ll always follow your pet’s normal routine and make sure we discuss their schedule ahead of time. I care for pets in the comfort of their own home, where they can stay in a familiar environment and keep their normal routine. I follow all care instructions closely, keep doors and gates secure, and make sure pets have fresh water, meals, potty breaks, exercise, and attention as needed. I also send photo updates, so you know how your pet is doing while you're away.
