About: I have always had a strong passion for animals and have taken every opportunity to care for and support them. Over the years, I have provided reliable dog and cat sitting services, working with a variety of breeds and sizes. Growing up in a home that always included pets has given me a deep appreciation for animals and a natural ability to care for them with patience, attention, and love. I would love the opportunity to provide your furry companion with the love, care, and happiness they deserve. I have a very flexible schedule and am currently available at a variety of times. With clear communication regarding dates and times needed, I will be able to promptly confirm my availability and ensure I can meet your scheduling needs. Every animal is unique, and I tailor care routines to best fit each pet’s individual needs and schedule. I believe clear communication is key to creating the perfect care plan for your furry companion. I always prioritize dedicated playtime and, depending on the pet, provide walks and outdoor time to keep them happy and active. I am highly flexible and committed to meeting the specific needs of every animal in my care.
About: I’ve founded dog rescues and once owned 11 dogs and 4 cats! I will treat your fur baby as if it were my own. Professional and loving care always. Let me know their special needs and quirks and I will make them feel right at home! I work from home and have a lot of time in my hands. I have a well behaved toddler girl and she loves animals. I can dedicate my time to treating your little one to everything he or she needs to be absolutely comfortable. We love to go on walks multiple times a day and spend time indoors cuddling and playing! I live on a small farm with a lot of walkable areas and large back yard for potty breaks and play. There are dog parks in short walking distance and plenty of trails to walk. There even is a washing station in case there are mud incidents.

“5 stars !🌟 Ginger is so sweet and down to earth. She is very communicative and punctual. Ginger walked my dog for a few days while I was feeling under the weather. Ginger was an absolute joy, she was very communicative and punctual. My dog loved her and immediately went down for a nap every day after his walk with her.

About: Coming from a family of animal lovers, I feel that I have inherited a passion for loving God's little creatures. I have experience in pet sitting cats, dogs, and even rats. Over the years, I've had the privilege of raising a number of different animals; some of which include: an opossum, deer, squirrels, bunnies, ducklings, gerbils, hamsters, lizards, snakes, and of course, cats & dogs! Additionally, I have experience in animal rescue and rehabilitation, senior care, and administering medication. I am currently enrolled at USC and work limited hours as an in-home caregiver for a young woman with special needs. Most of my classes are online so my schedule remains very flexible! I approach every animal with the gentleness and love that they deserve. I am happy to provide for your pet in anyway that you need!
About: I grew up with two dogs and consider them to be family. One is a toy poodle who was diagnosed with diabetes in 2023 and the other is a 100 lb pit bull, so I understand the struggle in trying to find a sitter that is well equipped to take care of the fur babies! I have experience in administering insulin and hefty medical routines. I am a college student that has a part time job so my schedule may be a little limited but I am willing to work with you in order to make sure you have the best accommodations! I am extremely attentive and will keep your fur baby company (or give them their space if that’s what they prefer!). If they were to be an emergency I would notify you right away and do everything in my power to remedy the situation, the safety and well being of your pet is my top priority.
“The best dog sitter I have ever had! My dog immediately loved her. She even got my dog to walk when she was scared by loud fireworks. I highly recommend Lakotah and hope to book her again in the future.”
