About: I have been helping to take care of family pets for the last handful of years. Taking walks and check ins for potty breaks and food! I work full time, 40 hours a week. Will be able to work before and after shifts, days off, weekends included! Holidays depend on availability. I ensure all environments are clean, safe, and comfortable for the pets. Food, water, clean litter available at all times when I am there with them

About: Hey everyone I'm Ella and I've always had a house hold full of pets. Growing up my parents allowed a wide variety of animals to stay in our home. I love animals so much that I'm going in to a career field that is dedicated solely on the help of marine organisms. I currently live with a dog, cat, bearded dragon, leopard gecko and a ton of fish. So basically I can care for any pet needed. I work part time so I have a ton of free time on my hands. I’m trying to find better ways to spend my time rather than always going out. Hanging with any pet is always so fun and usually a better time then going out to begin with! Each pets different, all come with special likes and dislikes. I usually love to take dogs for walks but some may not be able to walk, and in those situations I like to do mind puzzles. For pet sitting I’d come over to the clients home and spend a few hours with them unless it’s a sleep away care. Pet walks would last min 30 minutes just to give the dogs some fresh air longer than normally done during days.

About: I’ve had pets all my life. My family is full of animal lovers and know they can rely on me if they need someone to care for their pet for any reason. I have experience with end of life care for cats, administering pills and fluids to cats, and feeding cats by mouth with a syringe. One of my cats has asthma and takes pills to manage it. I have experience caring for my sister’s chihuahua, and caring for hamsters as my sisters and I had them as pets growing up. Petsitting is my main job at the moment, so I have plenty of time to care for your pets. I’m normally available for house sitting both weekdays and weekends, however I do have my own obligations and pets of my own to care for, so I must be able to leave for ~4 hours at some times. Due to this, I am not always able to accept requests for constant care (meaning pets who cannot be left alone for more than an hour or two, as an example)l. I spend as much quality time with my clients as I can, giving them plenty of love and attention. I love cuddling with them if they’re cuddlers and using their favorite toys when I play with them. I cannot take on higher energy dogs to care for, as I cannot keep up with them enough to give them the stimulation and exercise they need to thrive.

About: I have had dogs since I was born. My family has always had a dog. For 18 years, I had my own dogs. I’ve also watched friends and family member’s dogs. I will go to their houses and let their dogs out for them, walk them, etc. I work part time at a local elementary school as a TA. I only work 5.5 hrs a day, so I have plenty of time to take care of your pet. I have a fenced in yard and a 10 year old that would love to play with your dog if I’m not! I can put them in a crate if need be. I’d love to take them for a ride too! If I go to your house, I will respect your property and your dog’s things.

About: For 12 wonderful years, I had the joy of loving my own dog, and for the past decade, I’ve been capturing the personalities of pets through photography even volunteering to photograph foster animals to help them find forever homes. I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember, and caring for them is something I can’t imagine life without. Now, I’d be honored to give your furry friend the same love, attention, and joy I gave my own keeping tails wagging and hearts happy while you’re away. I currently work at a local middle school. I plan to offer pet services on days I am off work and our school breaks. Perfect for any vacations you have planned, I will be available. Your pet’s safety is always my top priority. I’ll follow your instructions closely, keep them leashed and secure during walks, and make sure doors and gates are always locked behind me. I’ll check food, water, and comfort levels at every visit — and send you photo updates so you can see their happy face while you’re away. You can trust me to treat your home and your pet with the same care and respect I give my own.

About: Hi, I’m Zee, a reliable and compassionate pet sitter with a genuine love for animals of all kinds. With several years of experience caring for dogs, cats, I treat every pet as family—because I know that’s what they are to you. My background as a 911 dispatcher has trained me to stay calm, focused, and dependable in any situation, and I bring that same sense of responsibility to caring for your pets. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, medication routines, or just keeping them company while you’re away, I make sure your furry friends feel safe, happy, and loved in their own home. I understand the trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care, and I’m committed to earning that trust every time. I work a rotating night schedule which is only half of the month. My schedule is flexible and I am open to working around your fur baby’s needs! I care for your pets the same way I would my own, with patience, love, and attention to their unique needs. I take the time to understand their routines, preferences, and personalities so they feel safe and relaxed while you’re away. Whether it’s feeding, playtime, walks, medications, or just quiet companionship, I provide calm, consistent care that keeps their tails wagging and whiskers twitching.

About: I am a pet trainer and pet service provider experienced in working with puppies, rescues, seniors, and some special needs animals. I have cared for and shared my life with dogs for nearly 42 years. I was an educator at the college level for over 20 years. I worked in a Kennel for 4 years and started my own training and pet service 3 years ago. I have experience in administering medications, and am comfortable doing so according to your specific instructions. I have 4 dogs of my own, all of whom are therapy certified. We did bi weekly hospice visits and also visited residents in a local nursing homes until the COVID Pandemic. I understand the needs of dogs, and your need to know your pet is being well cared for in your absence. Young, old, big, small, I love them all! *Unfortunately, I am severely allergic to cats. So I am not able to accept requests for homes with cats. I am a retired educator, now a full-time artist, so my schedule is my own; allowing me flexible availability to assist you with your pet care needs I am happy to do drop in visits to check on your pup(s), day stays, overnights and extended stays in your home. I do not currently offer boarding or doggy day care in my home.

“Jessica was very helpful and she accommodated me the last minute. Josie loved her walks!”

About: Get ready for your dog to be spoiled! I am the owner of a 7 acre mini Farm home! Your dogs will absolutely love it here! There are lots of trees around and beautiful grass for them to run around in here. I have always been a natural when it comes to pets, but specifically I love dogs, especially really big dogs! I have had dogs my entire life and I now have a small Shepherd Lab mix at home. I make it a priority to make sure that your dogs are well taken care of, well fed, have lots of fun, and get lots of exercise! So it's more than just a regular boarding/walking experience. Also I am a bit of a photographer so plan on getting lots of beautiful pictures of your dog on the farm from me during their visit. I also have two older daughters who are absolute animal lovers and will play and pet your pups consistently while they are here. I am a stay at home mom so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets, I an usually always home unless I am on a call for thr fire station. My land is not fully fenced off so If need be I will have to walk pups on a leash which is not a problem at all.

About: As a dedicated animal lover with a background in vet tech care, I'm confident in my ability to provide top-notch care for your furry friends. With experience working in a veterinary setting and a lifelong passion for animals, I've developed a deep understanding of their needs and behaviors. Growing up in an animal-loving family, I was exposed to various aspects of pet care, including dog shows and breeding. I've also had the pleasure of caring for my family's pets during their vacations, which has given me hands-on experience in providing personalized care and attention. My expertise extends to assisting with animal births, nail clipping, and caring for newborn puppies through their senior years. My family affectionately calls me the "pet whisperer" due to my ability to connect with animals of all ages and breeds. I'm committed to providing compassionate, trustworthy, and professional care for your beloved pets, and I'm excited to work with you to ensure their happiness and well-being." I am a widow and all my sons are grown, so I have nothing but time on my hands and to be honest my mom suggested that I give this a try because I watch her animals when she goes out of town and they are bad separation anxiety and when she has had someone watch them in the past her dogs wouldn’t eat and would be very depressed but when I watch them they have no problems , they eat , they play , and they are happy. She said my Aunt watches pets for a living and she loves it and since I am a big animal lover and I am so good with them that I should give Rover a try. I have an open availability.I also recommend a meet and greet that way you have a chance to meet me and so do your fur babies before you make any decisions! I follow the parents of the pets instructions and try to give the fur babies a normal routine as if their parents were home. I feed, play, walk, and will even cuddle with your fur baby and if it is a sleepover stay and your fur baby is use to sleeping next to you and they want to sleep next me then that is perfectly fine with me. All I want is for your fur baby to feel loved and safe!

About: Ive been caring for pets for at least 16 years on my own, I’d love to help care for yours as well! I usually achieve this by walking, housing & showing love/ being playful to the young ones who are up for it 😅😊. I am available every day of the week full time, this ensures that your pets needs will be met. I do not have pets of my own anymore so any and all pets are welcome! Im a stay at home parent meaning I don’t do outside work 😊. Incase of emergency you’d be notified instantly. I try to get the pet(s) comfortable with me & I learn their behavior as soon as I meet them. I make sure that we both feel safe and usually we all do and we can all have a lovely stay together! I try to make sure I am as attentive as possible letting them out every two hours on the dot including middle of the night. I follow feeding instructions on the dot as well. I am able to give medications! Ultimately I want the pet to be happy where they are at, and the parent as well. I have had many loyal clients.

“Hope has been so great to deal with. She's honest, responsible, knowledgeable, and most of all trustworthy. Super flexible schedule. Always on time. Very professional. I couldn't ask for a better person to watch over my new pup. My dog just loves Hope. Such a good feeling knowing your pet is in good hands when you're out. Thanks!”
