“Destiny has been fantastic with Lotus. She’s reliable, has great availability, and clearly enjoys spending time with him. Lotus is always happy to see her and she somehow manages to capture the best photos of his big smile during their visits. I truly appreciate the care she takes and highly recommend her.”

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 worked in veterinary clinics for roughly 13 years. I would love to help care for your pet. I believe the health and safety of your pet is main priority. I am currently sitting full time and would have plenty of time for your pups and kitties. With my professional experience I feel I am a good fit for any situation. In this line of work safety is my number one priority but equally as important is the happiness of your bestie while you are enjoying your time away.

About: I’ve grew up around dogs and it was always my job as a kid to feed and water, play, exercise, and do their potty breaks! I’m currently working part time cleaning houses, so I’m available most days! Just contact me for scheduling and I would love to fit you in! I keep pets safe, happy, and comfortable in their own home—following all instructions, making sure they have water, and giving lots of love, attention, and care while you’re away.
About: As a college student and lifelong animal lover, I’m dependable, energetic, and truly enjoy spending time with animals of all sizes and personalities. I’m comfortable caring for puppies who need extra patience and consistency, as well as senior pets who may need a calmer approach, medications, or additional support. I also make sure owners stay updated with pictures and messages so they always know their pets are happy and cared for. Creating a safe, loving, and stress free environment for every animal is always my top priority. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have open availability and a flexible schedule. I’m available for dog walking, drop in visits, and house sitting at the owner’s home throughout the week. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so making sure pets get the attention, exercise, and care they need is something I genuinely love doing. Whether it’s early morning walks or daytime check ins I’m able to adjust my schedule to meet each pet’s needs and keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, crate routines, and any special care needs. I always make sure pets have plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and affection while also keeping their environment clean, safe, and comfortable.
About: I have tons of experience caring for dogs and cats of all types temperaments and ages. I worked as a dog walker/ sitter in Atlanta GA, Brooklyn NY and Burlington VT and was a “pack leader” at a large doggy boarding/ daycare for 4 years before moving back down South in 2020. Keeping pets safe is second nature to me, as I’ve basically seen it all! I’ve cared for hundreds of dogs and cats and cherish my experiences with pets and their owners. I have a very flexible schedule with the ability to work from home, so could accommodate anxious pets, the very young and the very old! I live alone in a house with lots of space and can provide fun country walks. Also I’d be happy to stay with your pet at your home and follow any routine they’re used to. Bonus: I’m a houseplant care person too!
“Hannah was super nice and professional! She sent me a LOT of pictures and they were all so cute!! I know my fur babies were well taken care of while I was out of town. Thanks so much Hannah!”

About: I’ve had animals my entire life and caring for pets is something I truly love. I have over 10 years of experience looking after dogs and cats of all ages and personalities. I’ve dog-sat many times for friends and families, including caring for multiple pets in one home for weeks at a time (3 dogs and 4 cats). I’m comfortable managing feeding schedules, medications, walks, playtime, and keeping pets on their normal routines so they feel safe and happy while you’re away. I also have experience with senior and special-needs pets. I once cared for an elderly German Shepherd whose back legs no longer worked. I helped with mobility, hygiene, feeding, and cleanup, and made sure she stayed comfortable and loved. This experience taught me patience, compassion, and how important gentle care is for older pets. I treat every pet like my own and always aim to give pet parents peace of mind through reliable, attentive care. I work part-time at a restaurant, so my schedule is very flexible. On days I am not working, I am available to stay with pets all day and provide overnight care. On the days that I do work, my shifts are typically about 5 hours long, which still allows me time to care for pets before and after work. If I am scheduled for a double shift, I have a 1-hour break in between, which I can use to check in on pets, walk them, and make sure they are comfortable and cared for. I always prioritize making sure pets are not left alone for long periods and maintain a consistent care routine. When caring for pets, my top priority is creating a safe, calm, and loving environment where they feel comfortable and secure. In a client’s home, I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, routines, and house rules to ensure consistency for the pet. I always make sure doors and gates are secure, keep a close eye on pets during walks or playtime, and maintain a clean environment including food areas and litter boxes. I take time to build trust with each pet at their own pace, especially those who may be shy or anxious. My goal is to treat every pet as if they were my own and provide dependable, attentive care so owners can feel completely at ease while they’re away.
About: I have taken care of animals of every kind since I was a young child. I routinely keep my family and friend’s animals while they are busy or just for fun!

Extra lovings and playtime is taken serious 😊 In your home I will diligently work with your animals the way that you need me too! I cannot wait to meet you and your baby.

I am putting up a large fence now for my two dogs after just moving into a new house. If needed I have 2 6’x6’x7’ spacious kennels if needed with toys to play with.
