Suzanne did a fantastic job of dropping in on my cat Luna while I was away. I loved the pictures and updates I got and could tell Luna was happy! Thanks Suzanne!

Matthew did a great job with his drop in visits with Archie while I was working and my husband was away. Matthew was very timely and great at communicating. Archie enjoyed his time with Matthew and I look forward to booking him again!

About: I’ve watched my own pets, a dog and multiple cats, since I was 10. I am always up for playing fetch, giving belly rubs, and brushing out long coats (I have a husky mix… So much fur!). I also have a special trick for administering pills (cheese cubes are my secret weapon). I am most comfortable around small- and medium-sized dogs and any size cat. I specialize in caring for senior dogs and cats as well as animals with anxiety (scared of thunderstorms, need medication, etc.). I would love to help your furry friend be as comfortable and carefree as possible. Seniors need some extra love and attention that I am overjoyed to give! I’m currently taking summer college classes, but I am available to drop in on your furry friend any time on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. I am available on Saturdays and Sundays as well. At home, I have lots of experience handling escape artists (3 cats, 1 small dog), so I know all the tips and tricks to keep your fur baby safely inside. I can crate your dog if needed, but I love developing routines that are predictable and cause the least amount of stress for your furry friend. I want your pet to feel free to be themselves around me while accepting all the love, treats, and walks I can give.

I have two cats, one being diabetic and Katie was able to help me last minute when my sitter fell through. She sent me multiple updates and took care of everything I needed! Would definitely recommend Katie again!

Anthony is fantastic, brings treats, toys and a ton of love for your animals. He even made smalll adjustments, of course letting us know first, to ensure if there was poor weather that day he timed it within a window so he could let our pups out without it pouring rain. Absolutely will use him in the future and I am certain our dogs loved their time with him.

Jessica has been fantastic during drop-in visits for our dog Buddy! It was clear the second she walked in our home that she knows and loves dogs. Buddy was instantly comfortable with her thanks to her warm and welcoming demeanor. Knowing Buddy has someone that we can trust to drop-in while we are at work is very comforting. Highly recommend Jessica!!

About: I have taken care of pets for nearly 10 years. From Dogs to cat to even birds. I’m the person that will walk your dog in the snow and enjoy it. I am also the person that will play with your cat for an hour straight. Pets are family and that’s how they deserve to be treated. I’m currently a bartender and big time traveler. I’m looking to make extra cash on weekends by doing what I love which is taking care of your little furry ones. I have fenced in yard for my dogs as well as indoor cats. My pets eat twice a day on a cautious diet due to them being elderly. I walk my dogs everyday if I can and play with my cat every single day as he is old but he’s very playful.

About: I have grown up with animals and am an animal lover by nature. I have house sat for several families, having experience with multiple dog homes, cats, and birds. I have provided cared for rambunctious puppies and kittens as well, and I love to meet new furry friends! Currently my schedule for the summer I will be working out of the home from the times of 8:30 AM to 5:00PM three days a week on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. When I pet sit I prioritize being there for the pets as much as possible so that your animals can receive the love and care they deserve! I am comfortable leashing and walking dogs, even ones that pull. If I do leave during the day I like to crate the dogs I watch so they have a safe space when I’m gone, and I make sure to keep the floor clear of any hazards that could cause a potential problem.

About: I'm a true dog lover, who will treat your dog as my own. I've owned dogs my entire life and have experience with rescues of all sizes. I understand the needs of some fearful or reactive dogs too. I look forward to hearing from you soon. I work mostly early mornings before the sun rises, so I'm increasingly flexible as the day goes on. I'm available during most traditional 9 to 5 work days. I have a fenced-in yard and have a rescue dog. My dog has fear reactivity issues we've had to overcome, so I understand having patience and structure with dogs.

About: Growing up I had experience with small and medium sized dogs at home, especially always loved taking them for walks. I currently have three cats of my own. Despite working two jobs, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to offer pet sitting services on Sundays, Monday and Wednesday afternoons, and weekend evenings. I'm committed to making time for pet care because I truly enjoy spending time with animals and ensuring they are happy and well-cared for. I prioritize safety, trust, and a nurturing environment for your pets. I will meticulously follow any specific rules or routines you have for your cats or dogs to ensure their well-being and comfort.

About: Hello! My name is Shawntel and I have been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family had 2 dogs and 4 cats. Now I have three dogs that I couldn't imagine my life without them, with two of them being rescues. When I’m booked for house/dog sitting, my dad gets to stay and spend time with his grand-pups (: One is a German Shepard mix, another one is a Pitbull, Husky, Lab mix, and my newest addition is a golden doodle! The German Shepard is a senior so I am used to making accommodations for animals as well as giving mediations. It doesn't matter if they are young or old, big or small, boy or girl-- I love them all. I am currently a first grade teacher in Lake County which I recently took time away from dog sitting to focus on my new position. But now I’m back!! So I am available before and after the school day during the week for your animals and pretty free on the weekends. I am usually pretty flexible so if you need anything special for your animal, just let me know! I also dedicate my summers and school breaks to house/dog sitting! I truly believe that a well taken care of animal is a happy one, and who doesn't want their fur baby happy?! I look forward to meeting you and your sweet animal(s)!!
