About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 15, and it’s truly second nature to me. Over the years, I’ve looked after dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments—everything from energetic puppies to sweet senior pets. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, cuddles, administering meds, or just being a comforting presence, I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. My experience includes overnight stays, drop-in visits, and extended care while pet parents are away. I understand that every animal has its own routine and personality, and I make it a priority to adapt to their needs so they feel safe, loved, and comfortable in my care. Pet care is an easy fit in my daily routine because it’s something I genuinely love doing. I work with a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize your pet’s needs—whether it’s early morning walks, mid-day drop-ins, or evening cuddle sessions. I plan my days around the animals I care for, making sure they get the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. Because I’m organized and communicative, you can count on timely updates and consistent care while you’re away. Your pet’s comfort and routine become a part of mine while they’re in my care! In Your Home: When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow your instructions closely—whether that’s feeding times, walk schedules, medication, or favorite toys and treats. I respect your space and treat your home with care, making sure your pet feels safe, secure, and loved while you’re away. I also provide regular updates, photos, and notes so you always know how your pet is doing. In My Home (if applicable): If your pet stays with me, they’ll be treated like part of the family. I offer a cozy, pet-friendly space with plenty of room to play, relax, and feel at home. I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and enrichment throughout the day. My home is quiet, safe, and perfect for pets who need a calm environment.

About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is the genuine love and care I bring to every animal I work with, along with a deep understanding of their unique needs. I have experience working with a wide range of pets, from energetic puppies who need consistency and basic training, to senior pets who require extra patience, gentle handling, and possibly medication management. I’m skilled in reading animal body language, which helps me quickly build trust and create a calm, safe environment. Whether it’s reinforcing positive behavior in younger pets, helping with crate training, or making sure older pets stay comfortable and cared for, I tailor my approach to each individual animal. Your pet won’t just be looked after—I’ll treat them like family, with plenty of affection, play, and attention to their routines and preferences. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine—it doesn’t feel like a task, it’s something I genuinely enjoy. I make time every day for feeding, walks, playtime, and any special care a pet might need, whether that's administering medication, doing training exercises, or simply providing companionship and comfort. When I'm pet sitting, I structure my schedule around the pet’s needs, I stay consistent with their usual routine to help them feel safe and at ease, whether it's early morning walks, mid-day check-ins, or evening snuggles. My goal is to keep things as normal and stress-free as possible for both the pet and their owner. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, clean, and comforting environment that feels as close to their normal routine as possible. In my home, I offer a calm, pet-friendly space with plenty of room to play, rest, and explore. I keep everything secure and pet-proofed, and I always do a meet-and-greet beforehand to make sure your pet feels comfortable here. I do have 4 dogs of my own in home, so depending on your dog(s) and mine upon meet-and-greet, they will always have others to play with or I can always safely keep them separated, comfortable and calm at all times while staying with me. I follow your instructions closely—whether that’s diet, crate training, medication, or anything else—and provide updates so you know your pet is happy and well cared for. In your home, I make it a priority to respect your space while giving your pet the love and attention they need. I stick to their regular feeding, walking, and play schedules to minimize stress and keep things familiar. I’m also happy to take care of small household tasks like bringing in mail or watering plants while you're away. No matter the setting, I treat every pet like they’re my own—with patience, affection, and a whole lot of belly rubs and love!

About: Pet sitting is not just a job for me, it’s my passion! I’m reliable and loyal. I have years of care experience with different animals. My main job is pet sitting. My schedule is very flexible and I have reliable transportation. I am currently watching several different pet babies, but will gladly try to fit yours in.

About: I’ve taken care of my own/family animals since childhood. That includes mainly dogs, cats and horses. I have experience in basic training at all dog ages, medication administration and basic grooming. PET care can fit into my schedule weekly and daily depending on the person’s needs. I primarily work as a firefighter and have a large window to work with clients. When it comes to my own animals they are very regimented. They walk at certain times and go out to potty at certain times. I also reinforce training by going light training everyday. When taking care of others pets I like to ask what they are normally like so that I can match that animals expectations.

About: When it comes to pet sitting, there are countless options available, but what truly sets me apart from others is a unique blend of experience, passion, and personalized service. I OFFER TAILORED CARE FOR EACH PET : I understand that each pet is unique, with their own personality, preferences, and needs. I take the time to get to know each animal, allowing me to tailor your care approach. Whether your baby is a shy kitty that needs extra gentle coaxing or an energetic dog that requires plenty of exercise, I customize my time with your furbabies to ensure each of them feel safe and loved. TOP NOTCH COMMUNICATION SKILLS : I prioritize open and honest communication with my clients. I keep you updated with regular messages ,photos, and videos to assist in reassuring you that your furry family members are in great hands. Being able to provide detailed reports on your pet's behavior and well- being makes me a reliable choice. EXTENSIVE KNOWLEDGE AND TRAINING : My background in pet care began at a very early age. I've also studied animal psychology and communication and that coupled with my empathy and compassion towards all animals allows me to stand out from the rest of the sitters on here. I am well versed in animal behavior, health, and safety protocols, enabling me to handle emergencies calmly and effectively. My expertise gives you the peace of mind knowing your furbaby is cared for by someone with vast knowledge on the animal kingdom. COMPASSIONATE AND TRUSTWORTHY : My genuine love for animals shines through in everything I do. My clients can sense my compassion and dedication, fostering a strong bond of trust. I prioritize the emotional well-being of not only the animals I care for but also the pet parents. I take your decision to trust me with one of your, if not most precious blessings in life very seriously and would never do anything to compromise that in any way. I know how stressful it can be leaving your babies and I do everything I can to make this experience as easy and as pleasant as possible.

The ease of my adaptability ensures I can accommodate a wide range of requests, making it easier for you to find the right care for your pets. ENGAGING ACTIVITIES AND SOCIALIZATION : I go beyond basic care by providing engaging activities and socialization opportunities for pets. Interactive playtime, daily walks/runs, and enriching exercise that stimulates your furbaby's mind. This ensures your pets are not only cared for but also entertained and happy. COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT: I am in the developmental stages of founding a non-profit organization that caters to elder animals ensuring they're loved and cared for during their final days. This is leading to a collaboration between the senior adults in our community who are looking for companionship as well. If you're interested or know someone who could benefit from this service then please let me know! PERSONAL TOUCH : Lastly, my approach is marked by a personal touch. I remember specific details about each pet, such as favorite toys, treats , or routines, and I always incorporate those into my care. My attention to detail allows you to feel confident that your pet is receiving the best possible care. I am currently taking a short break from work and will be returning on January 1, 2025. That doesn't mean I won't be available after that because of remote work and having an extremely flexible schedule but my 18 year old son will be stepping in more to provide intermittent care through out the day once I work full-time as a Small Business Consultant A sneak peek into our DAILY ROUTINE: Morning care: Every morning I take the dogs for a 30 minute or longer walk. I believe that a good start to the day sets the tone for both pets and their parents. Upon returning to the house it's breakfast time and then a play session. Midday Visits : For clients that need daytime check-ins, I schedule visits that include feeding, playtime, and bathroom breaks. Evening Engagements : In the evenings, I dedicate time to provide additional walks, cuddles, and play sessions, ensuring that the furbabies receive ample attention and care. This is essential for their emotional well-being. Through out the week I maintain flexibility in my schedule to accommodate your pet's unique needs.

About: I have four years of veterinary medicine experience. I currently work full-time at a vet clinic where I interact with dogs and cats daily. I’m experienced in giving oral medication and injections. I have always had dogs and cat of my own. I currently have five dogs, three cats, and a hamster! I couldn’t see myself not working around animals, so it would be a pleasure of mine to care for and play with your pets! I work full-time during the week at a veterinary office. However, I will be able to step away at times to care for your pet as needed! My shifts end at 4 and my afternoons are open to all your pets needs. I will care for your pets in your home just as you do! I will take them potty regularly and play with them depending on age and activity levels. Of course, lots of snuggles are a must if your pet so desires:)

About: I have been in the vet field for about 5 years. I graduated from Delgados Vet Tech Program in 2021. I also went through the fear free program and got certified in school. I have worked just about every role in the clinic from reception, kennel and technician. I am comfortable with any medical needs. I have grown up with both cats and dogs. I recently have decided to do a career change but my love for animals will never change. Growing up I was always the one my family members would ask to pet sit. I have a soft spot for the seniors and cats! I work Monday-Thursday 7-3:30 and 7-11:30 on Fridays currently. Afternoons drop-ins would work best for me. I am able to do weekend drop-ins typically at any time. I know leaving your pet is stressful for both you and your pet. I'd love to step in while you're gone to continue your pets' routines. One of my cats gets stressed fairly easy so i won't be doing any in-house.

“Extremely polite and punctual. Will book in the future. Thanks!”
