About: I am a lifelong pet owner, having been raised surrounded by animals. That being said, I always helped to take care of our pets since I was a young kid. Dogs, cats, fish, guinea pigs, hamsters, snails, crabs; you name it, I've raised it. I love animals and love to care for them. I am athletic so I am great at keeping up with even the most energetic pets! I would love to be of service to anyone who may need me. I have also petsit and dogwalked for others privately for pay before this, so I have proper experience as well beyond my personal life. I work from home and varying hours between 3-8 pm on Mon-Fri (Usually only 2-4 hours in the studio at a time), so I have plenty of free time for care! I have experience with free-roaming pets of all kinds, as well as cage-training and homes with limited areas the animal is meant to stay in, so I have no trouble remembering these things. I can send regular updates if requested, including photos!

David makes our dogs feel safe and loved. They run to him as soon as they see him. He followed all our specific instructions and was very conscientious. He snuggled with them and played with them. We really appreciated how positive he was about staying with Belle and Rory. We would definitely use David again!

Christina came to pet sit on fairly short notice but was up to speed very quickly on care for both my senior dog and cat. She was very professional, reliable, responsible and communicated every day with me sending texts and photos updating me on my pets welfare. I was able to trust her and enjoy my trip away worry free. I will have her back again very soon as it was a great experience for myself and my pets!

10/10 would recommend! Jessica and Guillermo were so amazing at taking care of Zip. Zip is a reactive dog and we were quite anxious leaving him with a sitter for the first time. Jessica made us feel so comfortable for the entire week she stayed with Zip. She was communicative and sent lots of pictures that made us know he was in great care. She respected all the instructions we gave for taking Zip on walks and was very comforting knowing we were a little nervous to leave him. We had some travel delays getting home and Jessica made accommodation to stay extra time so we didn’t have to worry about Zip. Jessica and Guillermo stayed at our apartment for the week as well and were incredible guest. They were clean and gracious and even cleaned up before leaving. Safe to say Zip has new best friends and we will absolutely be booking again!

About: I’ve had dogs since I can remember. When I was 11 I had my own dog that I took care of and eventually once I was able to drive I payed and did everything for her (she was my age). I’ve taken care of family members dogs as well. I’m currently working at a doggy boarding and daycare facility. My job is to make sure the dogs are safe, happy and healthy. We take them out to the yard and bring them in for playtime. We learn dog body language and how to deal with their body language. I currently do not have my own dog but I do work at a boarding daycare facility. If you dog needs to be crated I can easily get them in there. The facility has very high fences for when the dogs go outside. Some dogs we do have to keep on a leash outside so they do not run away. I also play with the dogs and give them lots of love. The same can be done in a clients home as well. I will do whatever is needed for the dog I am watching.

About: I have worked as a veterinary nurse (ER, and general practice) for over 5 years taking care of all types of animals. I have been pet sitting privately for years, and take great pride in providing pets with a calm loving approach to make sure they are as happy as possible. Having my background in Vet-med I can confidently give owners peace of mind that their pets will always be safe, and have knowledge about senior care, anxiety, and other special health conditions. My schedule at the animal hospital I work for is very flexible, so I can be available when needed for the most part. Weekdays, nights and weekends are available depending on whatever owners need. I have extensive knowledge about animal safety, health, and enrichment. As well as understanding of different breeds/ages requirements. If your pet needs to be medicated daily, if they need extensive activity, or if you need someone to continue training while you’re away that is not a problem at all. For drop in visits I typically spend about an hour (depending on whatever you want) with the animals to make sure they are comfortable and happy when I leave. For walks it is dependent on breed/size/age, for example border collies need more exercise than bulldogs and seniors’ joints may not work as well as they used to. I can also provide mental stimulation for your pets via puzzles/games/light training. For in home pet sitting, I ask for an extensive run down or list of their typical daily routine to make sure their life is as close to normal as possible, which helps ease any anxiety they might have not having their owners home. I require “meet and greets” for all new pets/clients before I agree to walk/pet sitting, trust is extremely important to me and I want to make sure my clients always have peace of mind. I am also always reachable via phone/text, and love sending owners updates with cute photos/videos.

About: I have been a veterinary technician for the last 19 years. I have spent the majority of that time working at a small animal practice, but also worked at an emergency and specialty practice for 4 years during that time as well. During my career, I have dealt with numerous c-sections, geriatric, diabetic, and renal patients. Meaning that, injections, SQ fluid, oral meds, etc, are not a problem.. I have also done pet sitting on the side for many years during this time as well. I have always had a love for animals. I currently own a 9 year old mixed breed dog, as well as a cat, and chinchilla. I have had many pocket pets over the years as well. I currently work full time, overnights only, on the front end of the week. I plan accordingly, to make sure the pets needs are met before and after work shift, and spoil them extra on the days I’m off. I adjust to whatever needs the pet requires, and make our schedules work in sync so that there are no issues with bathroom breaks, or feeding/medications.

About: Frankly I don’t handle large dogs well, primarily looking to be a cat-sitter. However, if you need small dog help, I am more than happy to help! Pets are a priority! They need to be cared for, & attention for your animals is especially important while the owners are away. Happy to fill that gap! I can meet any requests needed! I am very cleanly, & will always be happy to cleanup after the animals if any accidents happen. I believe in leaving things better than you found it!
