“Destiny was very professional, sending photos throughout and keeping in touch the whole time I was away. She stayed in my home and left no trace. My pup really seemed to like her as well during the meet and greet. Would definitely recommend and will be using again!”

About: I have been taking care of pets for years. Anything from farm animals to fish! I love every animal as if they were my own. I can feed, water, play, and give medicines when needed! I’m working part-time and can stop by on my way home anytime during the week to take care of your pets. I am also available on the weekends! I have four dogs and four cats that are all different age ranges so I am able to have the energy for a puppy, but also be able to give medicine and slow walks for elderly pets.
“This was our first time using George, and it definitely won't be the last. He provided exceptional care for our energetic golden retriever, and even gave him a bath when the rain made a few tempting mud puddles. He is a vet assistant, so I'm sure he gave a more efficient bath than we do. He was very conscientious about sending daily updates and pictures, and our pup seemed happy and not stressed when we got home. We really lucked out with George!”

“Amanda is great with Scooby! We really appreciate her communication and photos the entire time we were away. She is very trustworthy and caring, and we were able to enjoy our vacation knowing our dog was in good hands!”


About: I’ve been pet/house sitting for the last couple of years. The most animals I’ve worked with at one time is 4. I’m great with a schedule if your pet needs it. I love all pets and I can’t wait to get to know yours! I’m available most of the time I’m not working right now so the only time I won’t be free are for personal matters. I am looking for new work so this may change. I have worked with both larger and smaller dogs. If they are still working in training I can continue to work with them on what they know. I have helped train in the past but I haven’t done any primary training myself.
“Garrison was amazing! Our dog got hurt before we left and he was so caring and patient with her. He played so much with our cat that I think he will find us boring now that we’re home. He kept the house so clean and updated us so much. I will definitely use him in the future and so should YOU!”

About: I’ve had pets all my life and am very good with anything. I’ve had cats, dogs, reptiles, rabbits, guinea pigs. And I’ll ages as well I only work at night from 10-6 two days a week.

“James did a great job taking care of my two cats while I was on vacation. He sent me pics and videos every day so I could see how my boys were doing. The house was spotless and so was the litter box. Highly recommend! And I would definitely re-hire.”
“This was our first time using Angela and she was amazing. Asher fell in love with her right away. She was so communicative throughout our trip and sent picture updates throughout the day. She even got Asher some cute Halloween treats to enjoy! We will definitely be using Angela when we go out of town!!”

“Janelle was great with my boys! When we got home, we found super happy dogs and a very clean house! She is easy to communicate with and kept us very informed on our dogs/house while we were away. We will definitely book her again!”

About: Hi! I’m a 19-year-old animal lover with a lifelong background in caring for pets. I’ve grown up in a home full of animals, so I’m very comfortable with different personalities, routines, and needs. I am also comfortable administering medications and bathing as requested. I currently have very open and flexible availability, which means I can be there when you need me—whether it’s daily visits, last-minute bookings, or extended care. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away! Pet care is my full-time focus, so my daily and weekly routine is built entirely around the pets I care for. This allows me to maintain consistent schedules, provide attentive visits, and be flexible for each client’s specific needs. I plan my days to ensure every pet receives reliable, unhurried care—whether that’s sticking closely to feeding times, allowing for quality play and enrichment, or simply being present for companionship. Because this is my primary work, I’m also able to accommodate midday visits, extended stays, and last-minute requests when needed. I provide care exclusively in my clients’ homes so pets can stay in a familiar, low-stress environment. I stick closely to their normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions you provide. I take time to get to know each pet’s personality and adjust my care to fit their needs—whether that’s lots of play and attention or a calm, quiet visit. I also help keep things clean and tidy, including litter boxes or outdoor cleanup. I always aim to make each visit feel relaxed and positive, and I send updates so you know your pet is happy and in good hands.

About: I used to work at Petsmart now I have a at home job that is very flexible but I miss having dogs around! I am available around your schedule because I live alone. Dogs are like humans, with legs lol I understand them and they always tend to come to me with out me speaking, its like a spiritual connection we have with out words. I will communicate with standard commands and use treats (if allowed) to gain trust & help them feel comfortable while mommy/daddy are away or on vacation. I live in a town home with a big back yard also a dog park! So they will get plenty of outside play time and explore the new scenery. Any other questions please feel free to call me anytime on my cell, I look forward to caring for your pet!
