About: I've grown up around dogs my whole life, pet sitting for families all throughout my community! I've sat for just about every kind of dog you could think of and can ensure you that your fur babies will be in good hands! I'm very passionate about dogs as they are my favorite animals, getting to care for them as a job is the best of both worlds for me! I'm a college student who has 2 full days of class on Tuesdays and Thursdays (8:00am-5:00pm), 2 half days of class on Mondays and Wednesdays (8:00am-12:00pm OR 1:00pm-5:00pm), and Friday off! Whenever I'm not at school I am at the clients house spending time with their pets whether that's playing in the yard, going on walks, or chilling on the couch! I ensure that they are fed on time with the schedule they are used to as well as administering medications they are taking at the appropriate times.
12. Savanna P.
About: I’ve taken care of animals of all kinds since I was 16. I am capable of giving medicine, staying overnights, and anything else needed! I love pet sitting, as it connects me with so many new animals I currently work part time at Harbor Freight , but my shifts are usually close to five hours. If given enough time in advance, I can take off a few days if necessary to play with your pets! I have five big dogs at home, who play safely in a fenced in yard. I keep an eye on them every time they are outside, and sometimes I’ll even sit outside with them when it’s nice out, just like I do with my clients dogs
13. Meagan N.
“Meagan did a great job taking care of Carlton! She was very informative about how he was doing while we were gone and sent pictures everyday. We will defiantly utilize her services again in the future.”
14. Hannah L.
“Hannah was a very attentive sitter to our cat, Hardee, and she updated me with messages daily, sometimes 2x/day. Hardee takes meds and she was astute in giving his meds and following instructions. She sent great photos of him as well which was comforting to us. I would recommend Hannah highly!”
15. Alisyn A.
“Ali is a great cat sitter. She was patient with August who tends to be shy around new people. I would highly recommend her to watch cats or dogs.”
16. Virginia M.
“I have known Virginia since we were children, and she's always been an animal lover! I have trusted her with my own pets and she did an excellent job caring for them. If I lived in the same area as her, I would absolutely trust her with helping with my pets again. She treats them as if they are her own.”
17. Payton P.
About: Growing up I always owned dogs and cats & had to responsibly of caring for them. This included feeding them daily, supplying them with fresh water, taking them on walks, and bathing them. I also have experience working at a Vet clinic where I was responsible for taking care of the animals in the boarding area. I really enjoy working with animals and plan to work with them in the future. I currently babysit on Mondays & Wednesdays so I am pretty much free on other days of the week. However, I always make time in my day to take care of my own pet. I currently own a hamster & feed him/ give him fresh water daily. I also spot clean his enclosure weekly & deep clean it monthly. As far as other people's pets, I help out my mom with her 2 cats & dog on some weekends. I provide them with fresh food and water daily. I also allow the dog to go outside for potty breaks and play time. I will also take the dog on walks around the neighborhood.
18. Zhiqing W.
“My mom Zhiqing Weems will take great care of your dog! She'll make sure they're fed, walked, and given lots of love and attention. They'll be safe and happy with her ."”
19. Presley S.
“We were pleased that Presley was available to watch our senior cat at rather late notice. She very kindly came to our home prior to watching our cat to meet me, our cat, Bentley, and to see the house and routine. Bentley, who can be unpredictable, warmed right up to Presley during their visits. Presley sent a photo and message each day letting us know that he was happy and well-cared for while we were away. Thankfully for us, Presley also helped us in a pinch with a pool maintenance issue. Thank you for all your help, Presley! We would be very happy to book with you again!”
