5. Eric H.
About: I’ve worked at doggy day cares and have owned dogs since I was 10 years old. All dogs are treated like family and will sleep in human beds and somebody will be home at all times. Somebody will be home 24/7 to play with the fur babies and will be loved at all times. Can’t wait to spend time and get to know the dogs. I have a privacy fenced in yard and three friendly dogs, the dogs are allowed on the furniture and will be treated like family. Your fur babies will be tired and wanting to come back and visit.


6. Sheila M.
About: I have any many different pets over the years. I currently have 6 dogs (3 are 30-40lbs and 3 are 10-20lbs) and 7 cats (4 females, 3 males). All of my pets are spoiled babies. I have an open schedule and am able to visit with your pets Mon - Sat 10 am - 6 pm and on Sundays after 1 pm. I will care for your pet in whichever way is best for them so that their daily routine and feed schedule is not disrupted while you are gone.


7. Kennady R.
“Kennady was an amazing pet sitter. She was there in a pinch when we needed someone to take over for our previous sitter and do overnights last minute even though we had already left town. She was extremely positive and warm about our situation, spending quality time with each of our kitties (+a bun) and constantly updating us on their shenanigans. We could not recommend her more!”


8. Hannah T.
About: What sets me apart is my genuine love and understanding of animals, especially cats, combined with my commitment to providing personalized care. I take the time to learn your pet’s unique routine, preferences, and personality to ensure they feel safe and comfortable in my care. With a deep attention to detail and experience as a cat owner myself, I’m skilled at recognizing subtle cues that may indicate their needs or moods. Most importantly, I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they receive the love and attention they deserve while giving you peace of mind. As a full-time student, I’ve mastered the art of balancing responsibilities, and pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I prioritize the well-being of animals and genuinely enjoy spending time with them, whether it’s feeding, playing, or providing companionship. My flexible schedule allows me to adapt to your pet’s routine, ensuring they receive attention and care when they need it. Caring for animals isn’t just a task for me—it’s a passion I make time for every day, even amidst my busy academic life. When caring for pets, whether in my home or my client’s home, my priority is creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for them. In my home, I ensure the space is clean, secure, and pet-friendly, with plenty of room for play, rest, and exploration. I maintain a structured routine that includes feeding, exercise, playtime, and quiet time to keep pets happy and healthy. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect and follow their established routines to provide consistency for their pets. I take care to keep the space clean and secure, ensuring their pet feels at ease while maintaining the familiar surroundings they’re used to. Whether it’s walks, feeding, litter box maintenance, or administering medications, I provide attentive care tailored to their specific needs. In both settings, communication with the pet owner is key—I provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins to give peace of mind and ensure trust.


9. Sydney L.

“Sydney did a great job taking care of my 2 dogs. I had never left them with anyone but family before but all went well. She was always on time and the dogs loved her!”


10. amanda h.

“Amanda was perfect with our dog. She sent pictures, updates. We were able to have a stress free weekend because we knew he was in good hands.”


11. Summer T.


“Summer has been amazing and the perfect extra help I needed with not one but two new puppies and another dog in the house. She loves on them and takes care of them like they are her own. She clearly has a love of animals and it shows in the care and attention she gives my babies. She is everything I could ask for in an animal caregiver. Do not hesitate to utilize her services. You will NOT be sorry.”


12. melissa C.


“Would beg her to come back a million times 🤣 she’s so sweet and great with my dog!! I got all the pictures and videos and knew she was in great hands. Super trustworthy and you won’t be disappointed!!!”


13. William H.
“William did so well walking my dog Luna and sitting her off and on over the last month or so. She always comes back happy and fed, and no need to use the bathroom when I get home from work letting me have more play time with her in the house instead of walking out in the sun after my long shift. Head pats were given.”


14. Lillian A.
“Lillian is one of the best pet owners I know personally. From every day dog walks , to pup cups at starbucks , she will care for your dog as it’s her own. She has been in school to be a veterinarian, all she’s ever wanted to do was to give dogs a beautiful life and a life that every dog deserves. If I was going to trust anybody with my puppy it would 100% be her!”


15. Scott O.
About: I have taken care of multiple breed of dogs. I have always been relied on to care for the animals in such ways as bathing, feeding, exercising, training and just being a friend until their owners are able to get them. I enjoy animals and dogs especially, they’ll have my attention from the moment they get with me until they return back to their owners. I am available anytime of day as i’m working from home and i will have all the time in the world for your beautiful dogs! I have a semi fenced in yard in which i prefer to walk on leash but i also love close to dog park if they need to really get some exercise. I also enjoy taking them on walks and making sure they’re safe before leaving the house.


16. William F.
About: I am very aware and “particular” when it comes to our fur baby’s! My Boykin Spaniel, Ruby, has a seizure condition which we control through daily doses of medicine. This has only heightened my awareness when it comes to the well being of our best friends. I include updates on how our time is spent together, and include any fun we have together. I also have experience with Seniors, and am aware/able to accommodate most situations! I am currently able to accept walking/sitting times nearly any times Monday - Friday from 8 AM to 5 PM. Weekend times will need to be set up in advanced and on a week to week basis. I have lots of experience walking my own dogs in very busy areas. In your home I will look to recreate the environment they are accustomed to their parents proving. I truly see it as a privilege to be trusted with a part of your family, and I will treat them like they are my family!


17. Audrey C.
About: I had a Great Dane for 8 years. Proficient in giant breeds and senior dogs. Love to walk and hike with dogs. Had cats since I was a child and currently have three at home. Currently volunteering at the Humane Society. I'm available Monday thru Friday to walk dogs and home visits for dogs and cats. My schedule is flexible. I'm available for overnight pet sitting upon request. If overnight pet-sitting I prefer to meet with the pet parents prior to spending the night so that I understand your pet's schedule and needs.


18. Laura T.
“Laura is very good with my boy Rex. She will send pictures and updates on how he is doing and has also set up a video chat for me and Rex when I was on a over nighter.”


19. Meredith R.
“Meredith is one of the most dependable and reliable people I know. She has stayed at my home while we have been on vacation and cared for my Sophie girl as if she were her own. She also has groomed her many times for me. If you pass on her, you are making a huge mistake.”
