About: My lifelong hands-on experience and genuine love for dogs. I’ve been caring for my own dogs since I was 10 years old, which has taught me responsibility, patience, and how to understand different dog personalities and needs. I’m comfortable working with puppies and reinforcing basic training like leash manners, crate routines, and positive behavior habits. I’m also attentive and gentle with senior dogs, making sure they move at their own pace, stay comfortable, and get any extra care or patience they may need. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine, even as a full-time student. I’m organized with my schedule and intentionally leave open time between classes and in the afternoons to walk and care for dogs. Being active and spending time outdoors is already part of my routine, so dog walking blends perfectly into my day. Pet care isn’t something I squeeze in — it’s something I genuinely enjoy making time for. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible so they feel safe and comfortable. I follow all instructions carefully — including feeding schedules, walk times, playtime, and any special care needs. I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while also respecting the home and keeping everything clean and organized.
“Sarah is truly an angel right here on earth. Our Oliver clearly loves her as much as we do and seems to say "ok, you can leave again, I'm in good hands " 😂😂when we get home. She is always on time, goes the extra mile...the house is perfect when we get home. Today we got home and found the driveway and sidewalk shoveled!!!! Truly above and beyond! I hesitate to leave this review as we are worried she will book up.wnd won't be available when we need her...but we couldn't NOT share how amazing she is. You can tell she absolutely loves animals. We love her as much as Oliver does.”

“Thank you, Tatiana!!. We went away for the weekend and came back to a spotless. Everything! definitely would use Tatiana again. She is kind passionate she took care of Charli 🎀 like she was her dog we are so appreciative! 🫶🎀.Charli loves her so much!”

About: I absolutely adore animals but especially dogs, I worked at a dog kennel for two years, which has helped me to gain experience around dogs of any and all different sizes, breeds, ages, and temperaments/requirements. I have been dog sitting/walking and doing overnight stays for 3 years and take great pride in taking care of your pet as if they’re my own! I am working part time at a kennel right now, however my shifts are very short (5 hours max but typically 2.5-3 hours). I get my schedule on a week to week basis, so if you want to guarantee that I have the availability to watch your pup, let me know at least 2 weeks in advance and I will happily request off from work to help you out (please still feel free to reach out even if its less than 2 weeks in advance, I likely will still be able to help you out). Having such short shifts, im available for pop-ins and walks the majority of the day, however there should be no problem with staying overnight as my latest shift is from 8:15-9:15pm at the kennel for let out. I will care for your pet as if it’s my own to ensure their safety and enjoyment for the time I am with them, as well as making sure your home is safe while you are away. I will follow any and all instructions that are given to me to guarantee everything runs smoothly and that your pup has a great and safe time!
About: I’ve been working in the veterinary field for 6 years and have had tons of hand in training in emergency care as well! I work with large and small animals and can also groom your pets as well! My schedule is very flexible and and I can accommodate to any needs! I just need at least a weeks notice, which would be much appreciated! I have had years of training and hands on experience caring for pets in all matters of their health and wellness and would be able to give your pets the best care!
About: I've had cats, dogs, frogs, a lizard, rats, a jumping spider, cockroaches, fish, shrimp, snails, and a horse as pets. I worked at a farm animal sanctuary and have volunteered at the SPCA. Mi español es limitado, estoy aprendiendo. Haré todo lo posible para adaptarme a los hispanohablantes. I work full time. Monday to Friday, 3p-11p. I'm on call occasionally on weekends. Message me and I'll do my best to accommodate you. I will abide by whatever instructions you want me to follow and be attentive to your pet and their needs. I would love to meet your pet!
“Becca is wonderful with my very high energy and high maintenance German Shorthaired Pointers. There isn't anyone else that I trust them with. She is reliable, communicative, and goes above and beyond.”
“Melissa is very professional and reliable. And a true animal lover! We are able to fully relax when our dog is in her care. She follows all medical requirements and provides timely updates.”

“Jennipher was amazing! I was so nervous leaving my girl with someone new but she put me ease from the moment I met her. I got updates throughout the entire stay and she even took Lu to the beach for a swim. Highly recommend and can’t wait to use her again :)”

“Jacque did a fantastic job of house sitting our 2 dogs! They loved having him and we couldn't have been happier with the care and love he gave them while we were out of town. Gave us updates and photos of the doggies. Would highly recommend and use again!”

“Shawna was a life saver! After learning of my MIL’s passing a week before Spring Break, let’s just say, we were having a hard time finding a pet/house sitter. We met Shawna on Tuesday and she was staying at our house with our 2 anxious boys Thursday night. Shawna did everything right making sure the boys were taken well care of and even wanted to vacuum & change sheets in order for our home to be ready for our return. She went above and beyond and we will definitely plan any future trips with Shawna!”

“Haley is hands down, the absolute best, end of story! Our rescue pittie has been with us for about 8 months now and he's come a long way so we decided to see if we could entertain the idea of traveling a bit but know he was in the best care. Haley house sit for us as a trial overnight and our dog immediately took to her calm approach, energy and the care she took while initially meeting him and then as she house sit for us. Her attention to detail, not only to our care guide we put together and her own expertise, but the frequency she communicates, as well as the respect she has for our house and belongings, put us at ease we made the right decision. Can't recommend Haley enough and we are so thankful (and lucky) she is here for Rueben!”

About: I have had both cats and dogs since I was a child. I always say hi to the dogs first when visiting family and friends! I work a full time job and am remote (from home) and am very flexible to fitting the needs of the potential furry friends I am given the opportunity to meet! I will follow directions to keep the animals safety and routine within their and their owners boundaries. During walks, I will respect the owner request regarding distance and interaction with other dogs, and people.
About: As long as I can remember I’ve taken care of pets of my own and others. From dogs and cats to lizards and birds, I’ve learned a lot from years of animals being by my side. That’s why from dog walks to overnight stays, your pets are in safe, loving hands-24/7, 365 days a year. I have plenty of free time to keep any pets enriched and well cared for when you cannot. Life can be busy but I like to spend time making others happy, especially animals! I live with a large family and with my cat, Coco. I feed her 1/2 a cup of dry food in 3 meals as she is an indoor cat and often she will be given wet food as well. I enjoy keeping my friend as happy and healthy as possible since she’s like my own child.
About: I've taken care of both dogs and cats for years. I've worked with all ages and even some that needed special needs. I've bathed, fed and walked dogs for years. I only work Monday through Thursday from 5am to 4pm and I don't do much else during the weekend or the week giving me lots of time to go on walks. I'm getting a fenced yard for my dog and crate training them. If the owner wants them crated or not it's up to them and I am always flexible.

“Jenna did an amazing job. My babies (pups) were happy and healthy when we returned. She provided updates throughout. I would definitely use Jenna again in the future and would recommend her.”
