About: Hi! I’m a dedicated and compassionate pet caregiver who treats every animal like family. I understand that leaving your pet with someone new can be stressful, so I focus on creating a safe, loving, and calm environment where your pet feels comfortable and cared for. I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages, seniors, and those who need a little extra patience. I pay close attention to each pet’s routine, personality, and needs—whether that’s playtime, walks, or just extra cuddles. You can count on me to be reliable, communicative, and respectful of your home. I also provide regular updates and photos so you always know your pet is happy and in good hands. My goal is simple: to give your pet the same love and care they get from you. I’m currently working a part time job but when I’m not working I love to play with animals and giving them affection. And I love helping out. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment where they can feel comfortable and relaxed. I follow their usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, playtime, and rest. I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, while also respecting their individual personalities and needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining the pet’s normal routine to reduce stress. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding, walks, litter box or potty care, and any special needs like medication. I treat your home with respect and keep everything clean and organized. In both settings, I prioritize safety, consistency, and communication. I provide regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing, and I’m always attentive to any changes in behavior or health.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for most of my life and have experience with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Growing up around animals and pet sitting for friends and family from a young age gave me a strong foundation in providing safe, reliable, and loving care. I have experience caring for puppies, senior pets, and everything in between, including feeding, walking, administering medications, and providing companionship while owners are away. I understand that every pet has unique needs and routines, and I take pride in following instructions carefully to help pets feel comfortable and secure. As the owner of a reactive and anxious Labradoodle and a strong-willed Golden Retriever mix, I have firsthand experience working with dogs that require extra patience, awareness, and positive reinforcement. I’m familiar with clicker training techniques, leash reactivity management, and creating calm, positive experiences during walks and visits. Whether your pet needs exercise, attention, medication, or simply a friendly face while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same care and respect I give my own pets. I’m currently working part-time so I’ll have time for early morning or evening drop-ins during the week and open availability on weekends. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I understand the importance of following routines, administering medications correctly, and recognizing signs of stress or discomfort. As the owner of an anxious, reactive dog, I’m experienced in handling pets who need extra patience and attention. I will treat your pets and home with the same care and respect I give my own, and I’ll keep you updated throughout every visit for added peace of mind.
About: I’ve taken care of animals ever since I could imagine all my friends and family would call me and ask me to watch their animals while they were away. I’ve just graduated so I’ll will have plenty of time to walk and play and care for your animals i’m available every week and weekend. I will make sure your animal has food and water every day and goes to the bathroom and I will play with them between the scratches and the toys. They will have the best time of their life.
About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my genuine love and passion for animals. I have a natural ability to connect with pets and make them feel comfortable and loved. My attention to detail and commitment to providing exceptional care also make me stand out. My clients can trust that their furry friends are in the best hands with me. I take pride in going above and beyond to ensure the happiness and well-being of every pet I care for. 🐾 I’m currently not working at the time, so I’ll have plenty of time to take care of your fur babies while you are away! Let me know how many times they need to checked on at your home and I will take care of the rest! While you are away, I will be coming to your house to check on your pets as many times as they need. When I am with your pets I will make sure they are comfortable, much loved, and very well fed!

Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
