Chasidee is a great cat sitter! She is dependable and went above and beyond our expectations. Our cats loved her visits, getting love from her, and all the nice treats she gave. We will definitely be using Chasidee again and recommend her highly.

About: I'm very genuine with pets, extra caring and careful especially with my seniors. I'm patient and I love teaching my pets tricks. Love making them feel safe and cared for. Hello I work full time and I'm also a full time college student. I'm available on the weekdays after 4 most of the time and on The Weeknd's whenever sometimes I work on saturdays and I get off at 12 pm. I'm very caring with my pets. I have a Frenchie so I know what it's like to be extra careful dealing with a dog that could easily get paralyzed from the legs. I have inclined stairs on my couches. and I also have a fenced yard with extra fencing around it in case of holes. I have plenty of toys to keep your fur animals safe

About: i’ve grown up around animals my entire life and have always had a soft spot for them. I have experience with sitting pets and even have some background interning at multiple vets so I understand the love and care pets need. I am reliable and compassionate about the care your pets are given because I would want the absolute best care for my fur babies! Currently working part time, I am available early mornings from 7–11 AM and I am also available later in the evenings after 7 PM. After the first week of May, my schedule is wide open! I will be able to do full days during the week and some weekends. I will not be able to provide services that involve bringing your animal to my home, mainly because we live on 160 acres with no backyard fencing. I also have two small dogs in the house and a cat who do not get along very well with other animals.

About: I have experience in playing fetch, training, playing games, feeding, watering, snuggles & cuddles, and have an eye for safety and correct guidance to keep your baby safe.💕 I’m available in mid mornings to take them to the bathroom/feed/ water. Afternoon/evenings after 2 pm. I’m looking so forward to hearing from you and your Paws 🐾 I would first and foremost greet them in a happy way to start building a loving & trusting relationship with them. Take them outside to use the bathroom and probably sit outside with them (weather permitting). I would read the instructions if any, make sure they have had all meds/food/water. Play fetch or games if needed. Then if your baby likes tv we will watch “Paw Patrol” while brushing their hair and just chill for a bit and get to know each other.

About: I've been caring for family and friends' dogs since I was 15. Currently, I help train future service dogs with canine companions. I also have two fur babies of my own whom I love. I'm currently working full-time at the Omaha Country Club as a pool service lead. My schedule changes from week to week, but I am available for most of the day during the week and all day on Sundays. I do not have a fenced yard, but I do have yard chains available. I currently crate my dogs when they are not at home; otherwise, they have free rein of the house. I want to keep overnight visits in the dogs' home, as I do not want to disrupt anyone's safe space.

Hailey was excellent. Her professionalism showed in how my two kitty's responded to her care. She aptly carried out her responsibilities which included feeding, grooming, cleaning and administering nose drops and steam sessions to my special needs cat. She anticipated needs and responded appropriately. I wish I could employ her on a regular basis! You couldn't find a better caregiver.

About: I was raised on a farm and have been working as a veterinary Technician for 10+ years. I have also shown dogs in obedience since I was 8 yrs old and was very successful in the show ring. I work at an animal hospital Monday through Friday. I would be taking care of your loved one before I go to work, during my lunch break and when I get off work, then before I go to bed. Since I work at a animal hospital I only get an hour lunch break and have room for only visit during my lunch break. Because of this I charge $15 for a drop in visit, $26 for morning and evening care, $36 for morning, lunch and evening care. Because I have my own animals to tend to as well, I charge $50 a night to stay at your house. I have shown and trained dogs in obedience and I’m not scared of a barking dog that is nervous because the owner is not home. I know how to safely approach a dog and gain it’s trust. I also know what to do if your dog goes off it’s food or gets to stressed because the owner is away. I offer quality service with experience in many different situations from being a vet tech at an animal hospital and working at an emergency clinic.

About: Originally from West Texas, I was raised caring for dogs, cats, cattle, chickens, pigs, goats, fish, even a llama! At the age of 18, I started working for my aunt's pet sitting business and gained a lot of experience caring for animals, administering medications, and maintaining others’ homes. I have experience with many different breeds, ages, and temperaments. I can also take care of your plants and garden while away! I work from home and have a small business, so I’m flexible! I also have a baby, so he will come with, usually in the carrier. I’m able to provide care for pets in their home. I have numerous references that I’m happy to provide. I feel that one can sense the trustworthiness and integrity in others, which I’m confident you’ll find in me.

About: I am thankful to have grown up in a home with many animals. Over the past 22 years, I have loved and had the opportunity to take ownership of about 8 dogs and 2 cats. They have all been lovely and I could not have imagined my childhood without them being apart of it. I have been fortunate enough to have friends at school that are pet owners and have been given the opportunity to build relationships with their dogs, and even get to care for them when they have been away. This has given me the chance to still connect with dogs, while being away at college. I thought, why not try to make this an even bigger opportunity and try to meet more dogs right where I’m at! We currently have 4 dogs at home and I have had the pleasure of walking and spending time with each of them when I visit home on the weekends or am home for holiday breaks. Every dog we have owned has been very unique, so I’ve learned how to tailor my care taking methods to each one of their individual needs. From our high energy pups who love to chase tennis balls to older dogs who enjoy a leisurely stroll, I’ve realized that every one of our furry friends is special in their own way and deserve intentional care and love! Feeding time, special treats, doggie cuddles, and bath time when necessary are always my top priority for your furry friend to ensure they are comfortable and feeling fully loved while in my care. Safety is always my top priority! I always make sure that safe leashes (harnesses preferred) are used and proper walking etiquette is performed to ensure a positive and stress-free experience for your precious pet! As well as your pets maintaining hydration in this hot Texas heat. I am currently working a part-time job Monday, Wednesdays, and Fridays from 9:00am-12:00pm, as well as performing as a full-time student at Texas A&M University. My week days are available early mornings before work and classes begin, along with afternoons in between classes for potty breaks, toy time, and special treats and later evenings for walks and end of the day care. Thursday through Sundays are typically my most flexible days and would be the most suited for pet boarding in your home, or my home. The weekends are consistently my most available days for any type of pet or home care. As a trusted pet sitter, I have provided care for countless dogs while their owners were away. I understand how important it is for dogs to feel comfortable and secure in their own environment, which is why I offer in-home pet sitting services. During visits, I ensure your dog receives the love and attention they need, following their regular feeding and exercise routines to maintain stability and reduce stress during your absence. I also have experience administering medication with my own dogs at home and would be happy to help in doing so with your dog. Please let me know in advance if their are any special instructions for this service. My goal is to give all of my clients a peace of mind knowing your furry friend is truly in good hands.
