Joleen was absolutely amazing! She took excellent care of my two cats while away on a trip, was able to give my diabetic cat his insulin, and treated them like her own. I was extremely happy with the status updates and never had to worry about anything. If you need a reliable pet sitter who will give your pets the best treatment, look no further!

Chris was amazing with our puppy August! He even took him on a walk with his doggo so he could practice pack walking, as well as other manners and obedience training during the walk. August thoroughly enjoyed his time with Chris and was able to take a good long nap afterward. August is already looking forward to his nest outing with Chris, thanks!

About: I have over 5 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and birds. I grew up in a home full of animals, including our family dogs, cats, and a sweet cockatiel, so I’m very comfortable with different personalities and needs. I’m patient, gentle, and always make sure pets feel safe, happy, and loved. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playing, or just keeping them company, I truly enjoy taking care of animals like they’re part of the family. I have open availability and can easily work around your schedule, whether it’s weekdays, weekends, or holidays. I’m flexible, dependable, and happy to accommodate last minute needs whenever possible. I care for pets like they’re my own following their routine, giving them love, play, and comfort. I keep things clean, calm, and cozy so they feel safe and happy.

About: Hi there! I’ve had pets all my life and 2 years of hands-on working closer with them now that I’m working in an Animal Hospital, I have experience with both dogs and cats—especially small dogs and feline friends (my personal favorite!). As a veterinary technician, I bring not only a deep love for animals but also the medical knowledge and practical skills to ensure your pet is safe, healthy, and happy while you’re away. I’m fully capable of administering medications, and giving each pet the individualized care they deserve. Whether your pet needs a quiet cuddle buddy, some gentle playtime, or a watchful eye for medical needs, I’ve got you covered! Since I have a full time job I can be away for the whole day but my job allows me to bring them with me and be able to watch them the whole day! If ur pet is anxious and you prefer them staying at home it’s okay too since there’s always someone at home! And they will have potty breaks morning and night, play time and love. I live in a townhouse so I don’t have a backyard, but theres lot of green space to run and stretch, so they can run as much as they want. I treat every animal as if they were my own and work hard to make them feel comfortable, loved, and stress-free in my care.

About: About our home: We live in a one story home with a big, double large fenced yard. We located near numerous parks and am a little drive from two parks. We have a doggy door so dogs are free to roam in and out of the house. Our babies: We have two rescue dogs, Max and Miley, at home that are very friendly and enjoy other dogs' company. Max is on the more active side and Miley is definitely shy and skitish. Max like to be chased and toys. Miley tends to hide when there are new dogs around and it takes her a small amount of time to come out and say hello. Once she's comfortable, she likes to play chase and with her toys. Neither are food or toy possessive. They are taught to not bother other dogs when they are around their food bowl. My fiance Greg and I work reverse schedule. Greg also works hybrid job, so he's home half the week. During your furbabie's stay, there should not be more than 2 hours where they are alone. We both love dogs and are very active. We enjoy our morning/evening jogs/walks. Dogs that are active/runners are a plus in our books! We have a family 13 year old Husky that occasionally stays with us. Please note that depending on drop off/pick up time, it may be either my Fiance and/or I present. We make the best effort to be present at the meet and greet or the drop off to ensure familiarity between pet and owners. Environment: I have a stone wall (~ 7 feet high?) and the side gate is double gated. We have a large yard full of towering trees for shade. We also have a gazebo and an umbrella patio set that allows pets to pay under the shade too. Dogs have in and our privileges through the doggy door. We have a sunroom that has a bench with memory foam cushions that some dogs like to sunbathe on. Dogs can also come inside and hang around the main house. We have three different spots for our water bowl around the yard/house. We also have security cameras. Puppers: Miley is 8 years old and is timid but will play when she warms up. Miley loves toys and likes to chase and play wrestle. She is a cuddler and highly food driven. She likes walks and will not run for her life. Max is turning 10 this year and loves to relax in the sun but likes to be chased. *My sister lives down the street with her two dogs (They are young &playful) and will sometimes pop in for a visit. Please let me know in advance if you prefer your dog to not meet any other dogs* *We live in a dog friendly neighborhood, so our dogs do sometimes greet neighboring pets during our walks. Please let us know if you would not want your pet to say hello to our pet neighbors.

About: Since I was 5 years old, being a dog owner instilled in me a deep sense of responsibility and ignited my passion for animals. I pursued certification as a vet assistant and have gained valuable experience working in clinics that will allow me to take care of your pets as if they were my own! :) I’m currently working working full time so I am available Monday-Friday after 4pm and weekends all day. If your pets are on any medication or have any special needs, I have extensive knowledge due to being a certified vet assistant. As a dog sitter, I prioritize creating a safe and comfortable environment for the dog in their own home. This includes maintaining their regular feeding schedule and ensuring they have access to fresh water at all times. I make sure to follow any specific dietary requirements or restrictions provided by the owner. Daily walks and playtime are essential for their physical and mental stimulation, tailored to their energy levels and preferences. I am diligent about administering any necessary medications or treatments as instructed. Beyond physical care, I provide companionship and affection, reassuring the dog in the absence of their owner. Regular updates and communication with the owner keep them informed and reassured that their beloved pet is well-cared for and happy in their familiar surroundings.

About: I have over 8 years of hands-on experience caring for pets, including dogs of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. I’ve pet sat for both puppies and senior dogs, and I’m confident handling everything from high-energy play sessions to gentle care for older pets with mobility or medical needs. I’m experienced with basic training, administering medications, and creating a calm, safe environment for anxious or shy pets. What sets me apart is my patience, attention to detail, and genuine love for animals—I treat every pet like family and tailor my care to their unique personality and needs. Pet care is an important part of my daily routine, even while I work full time from 9am to 5:30pm. I’m able to start early in the mornings before my shift to feed, walk, and spend quality time with pets. I also offer care at my home, providing a calm and loving environment for pets while their owners are away. I’m off on weekends and have full availability then, making it easy to give pets extra attention and care. Even on busy days, I prioritize breaks to check in, offer water, and give affection. My flexible schedule and commitment ensure that every pet’s needs are met with love and consistency. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, safety and comfort are my top priorities. I ensure all environments are clean, secure, and pet-friendly—removing any hazards and providing cozy spaces for rest and play. I follow each pet’s routine carefully, including feeding, exercise, and medication schedules, to keep them happy and healthy. I build trust by spending quality time, offering gentle reassurance, and closely monitoring their behavior for any signs of stress or discomfort. Communication with pet owners is key, so I provide regular updates and am always available for questions or concerns.

About: I’ve been a devoted pet caregiver for over 8 years, caring for cats, rabbits, and hamsters with love and patience. I understand the unique needs of small and shy animals, and I’m comfortable administering medications, including subcutaneous injections for cats when needed. My approach is calm and attentive, ensuring each pet feels safe, happy, and cared for as if they were my own family. I’m passionate about providing personalized care and sharing daily updates with pet parents. Since my MBA program starts in mid-August and all my classes are in the evenings, I currently have a flexible schedule during the day. This allows me to dedicate ample time to new opportunities, projects, or commitments without scheduling conflicts. I’m available throughout the daytime and can easily adapt to different time zones or urgent tasks while attending evening classes. I currently rent my home and am unable to offer boarding services at my place. However, I am happy to provide loving and attentive pet care by visiting your home for drop-in visits, dog walking, or house sitting. I understand that pets feel most comfortable in their own environment, and I’m dedicated to making sure they receive the care and attention they deserve while you’re away.

About: Hey there! I just wanted to share that I've been taking care of dogs and cats for more than five years now. I've been doing it for my family and friends, and I absolutely love it!

Please note that depending on drop off/pick up time, it may be either my Fiance and/or I present. We make the best effort to be present at the meet and greet or the drop off to ensure familiarity between pet and owners. Environment: I have a stone wall (~ 7 feet high?) and the side gate is double gated. We have a large yard full of towering trees for shade. We also have a gazebo and an umbrella patio set that allows pets to pay under the shade too. Dogs have in and our privileges through the doggy door. We have a sunroom that has a bench with memory foam cushions that some dogs like to sunbathe on. Dogs can also come inside and hang around the main house. We have three different spots for our water bowl around the yard/house. We also have security cameras. Puppers: Miley is 8 years old and is timid but will play when she warms up. Miley loves toys and likes to chase and play wrestle. She is a cuddler and highly food driven. She likes walks and will not run for her life. Max is turning 10 this year and loves to relax in the sun but likes to be chased. *My sister lives down the street with her two dogs (They are young &playful) and will sometimes pop in for a visit. Please let me know in advance if you prefer your dog to not meet any other dogs* *We live in a dog friendly neighborhood, so our dogs do sometimes greet neighboring pets during our walks. Please let us know if you would not want your pet to say hello to our pet neighbors.

About: Since I was 5 years old, being a dog owner instilled in me a deep sense of responsibility and ignited my passion for animals. I pursued certification as a vet assistant and have gained valuable experience working in clinics that will allow me to take care of your pets as if they were my own! :) I’m currently working working full time so I am available Monday-Friday after 4pm and weekends all day. If your pets are on any medication or have any special needs, I have extensive knowledge due to being a certified vet assistant. As a dog sitter, I prioritize creating a safe and comfortable environment for the dog in their own home. This includes maintaining their regular feeding schedule and ensuring they have access to fresh water at all times. I make sure to follow any specific dietary requirements or restrictions provided by the owner. Daily walks and playtime are essential for their physical and mental stimulation, tailored to their energy levels and preferences. I am diligent about administering any necessary medications or treatments as instructed. Beyond physical care, I provide companionship and affection, reassuring the dog in the absence of their owner. Regular updates and communication with the owner keep them informed and reassured that their beloved pet is well-cared for and happy in their familiar surroundings.

Alice is one of those people who genuinely loves animals-she even carries cat food in her bag to feed stray cats on her way to and from work. She 's taken amazing care of her own two cats, and a rabbit, all of whom were happy, healthy, and very well-loved. I would trust her completely to care for any pet as if it were her own.
