Lela was awesome with Luna! We were able to enjoy our vacation. She sent us many photos and updates. We came home to a clean house. I would not hesitate to use her services again or to recommend her to anyone.

About: I love to go on walks and be outside. I am very trustworthy and am rarely ever late. I am very caring and always want to make sure the dog is as happy as can be. I will listen to any instructions you have. I just want to provide a helping hand while getting the chance to hang out with some amazing dogs! I have a very open schedule and work as a bartender so mostly work afternoons. Because of this I have time during the day to care for your pet as well as many full days throughout the week I care for pets at my clients home so that they are comfortable with their surroundings and can be as calm and happy as can be

About: We have had the pleasure of owning a small business called "Pet-Inn" and boarded many dogs! Me and my mom took care of others dogs for quite some time and really enjoyed it. This experience helped me become passionate about entrepreneurship as well as working towards a compassionate connection with your pets! I currently have a part-time small business I'm running apart from being a "SAHM" so I will have plenty of time to get to know your beloved pet and get to know them so I can take care of them in the best way I know possible! I have some free time in my schedule, so finding a slot during the week to care for your pet works well for us. I have a now 6-year-old who adores small dogs, cats, and other animals! I am well aware of the responsibilities of pet care, but I want to emphasize that your pet's safety is my top priority.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on experience with both young and senior pets, including those with medical needs. I’ve cared for my parents’ dog after a major surgery, which involved giving medications, monitoring recovery, and making sure he stayed calm and comfortable. I’ve also watched my aunt’s senior dog and her kittens, so I understand the different care routines, energy levels, and attention each age group needs. I’m very patient, responsible, and always make sure pets feel safe and loved in my care. I work full time from 6 a.m. to 3 p.m., which gives me plenty of availability in the afternoons, evenings, and on weekends for pet care. I’m very organized and plan my schedule around the needs of the pets I’m caring for. Whether it’s evening visits, feeding, litter box cleaning, or just spending quality time with them, I always make sure they get the attention they need. In my home, I make sure pets have a safe, calm, and clean environment where they can feel comfortable and relaxed. I follow their usual routines as closely as possible—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any medications they may need. I also make sure they have quiet spaces to rest and lots of attention and love throughout the day. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat it with the same respect I would my own. I stick closely to their normal routine to help reduce stress, keep everything tidy, and make sure the pets feel secure in their own space. I give regular updates so owners know how their pets are doing and can feel at ease while they’re away.

About: I’ve cared for a variety of pets over the years, including dogs of all ages. I have hands-on experience with puppies who need structure and patience, as well as senior dogs who require extra attention, medication, and a gentle touch. Whether it’s going for long walks, playtime, or just providing comfort and companionship, I genuinely love caring for animals and making sure they feel safe and happy. What sets me apart is my attention to detail and calm, caring nature. I treat every pet like they’re my own, taking time to learn their personality. I’m reliable, communicative, and always go the extra mile to make sure both pets and their owners feel comfortable. I fit pet care into my routine during my free time, usually in the mornings and evenings during the week, and more flexible on weekends. I ensure a safe, clean, and pet-friendly environment. I build trust through gentle handling, consistent routines, and lots of affection. I follow specific care instructions and prioritize the pet’s comfort and well-being.
