“With the busy schedules my husband and I have, we use Melissa weekly for recurring walks. She is great about picking up extra walks when we need, so our fur baby has some consistency with all traveling I do for work. Bruno loves her and I love the peace of mind she gives us! Thanks Melissa for all you do!”


“Cassandra is so great with our dog. She is reactive with other dogs so it’s very important to us to have a dog walker who can handle that. Our dog is so much happier and calmer when Cassandra has walked her that day and the pictures she sends us always make my day.”


About: Tail-wagging care you can count on! I have 20 years of pet sitting experience with a wide range of pet personalities and temperaments and 25 years of loving my own fur babies as well. I specialize in puppy care and basic training reinforcement (housetraining, play based development, leash manners), senior pet care (gentle handling, mobility support, medication administration), and special needs and rescue animals (with an understanding of anxiety, therapeutic support, and slow-trust building). I treat every pet like my own—with kindness, reliability, and plenty of playtime, walks, and cuddles. You can relax knowing your pet is not only safe, but genuinely cared for. :) I'm currently working part time from home so I prioritize caring for your pet with the same attention I gave to my own pets - making sure they’re happy, healthy, and safe while you're away. I have a fenced yard and an animal-friendly home. Currently there are no other pets in the home because my three fur babies have since passed on after 15-17 years of life. I now have two children (my daughter is 7, and my son is 4) who love animals and are very gentle and caring. If your pet doesn't prefer children, please let me know and I wouldn't bring them with me to care for your pet. :)


“We have been consistently using Beverly since our pup was 3 months old. Beverly does weekly walks for us as well as daycare and overnight stays. Charley loves her Beverly and she has quickly become part of our family.”

About: Because of my living situation, I can’t have a dog of my own, so I’d love to take care of yours! Available for walks, let outs, house sitting, anything! I have a cat if my own, so I’m very comfortable taking care of kittys too! I’ve pet sat for friends and family before and can’t wait to meet your fur babies! I’m a teacher, so summers I’m very available and during the school year I’m available after 3 and on weekends! Contact me and we can work something out! I’m willing to do whatever it takes to keep your pets happy and healthy! And will communicate with you as much or as little as you’d like! I know it’s stressful leaving your pets, so I’ll do what I can to make things as stress free as possible!

“Carolina has been so patience with my obnoxious dog, I consider she’s great and goes an extra mile. 100% trustworthy, your furry friend will definitely be happy walking with Carolina!”


About: I was raised in a household filled with dogs, cats, fish and birds and my fascination with and love for animals has never waned. I have more than two years of kennel experience, have received a lot of kisses and cleaned a lot of poop. Proud Cat Daddy to three gorgeous felines. I have a lot of availability. I can do most jobs in the mornings, afternoons or evenings. Morning walks or evening meds - let me be your guy! As a visitor to your home, I'll have the utmost respect for you and your animals' sanctuary. I will always give attention to each and every animal and let no one feel left out.

“Matt is !absolutely great with Luca!! He’s very accommodating with unexpected requests. He’s very easy going and reliable. Luca (my dog) loves him and looks forward to his walks with Matt!”


“Sara's been taking our two pups on daily walks for us. She's great with the dogs, great about communicating walk times, and flexible when we need to switch things up. I couldn't recommend her more!”


About: I’ve Taken care of and trained over dozens of animals in over 6 years. I was an assistant pet trainer/groomer at a dog kennel. And volunteer for several animal shelters. I love taking care of animals of all kind, but specifically cats and dogs! I’m currently working part time remotely, so I’ll have a lot of time to make sure you pet is loved and cared for! I have a cat of my own and I always make sure she’s happy and healthy! I like to take walks 2-3 times a day so I don’t mind making sure your fur baby has had plenty of potty breaks. I live in a gated community with a fence separating me from my neighbors. I also have a huge backyard and plenty of space to keep your animals active and happy. I also love taking walks and having outside time. They deserve to have fun and enjoy their day too!

About: I've owned pets my whole life. I currently own two pets: a Coton de Tulear named Kitty and a sweet German Shepherd named Medusa. I volunteer at animal shelters, and work as a veterinarian assistant. I have experience with cats and dogs ranging from newborns to seniors. While I have my own pets, rest assured your baby will have my undivided attention while in my care. I interact with pet on a daily basis. I work as a vet assistant, and have my own pets. I have lots of free time throughout the week that I occassionally dedicate to my neighborhood animal shelters. My most open days are Wed - Fri. Pets will never be left unsupervised in my care. Only pets from one household will be walked at a time. When doing drop in visits I pay close attention to the instructions given by the pet owner, and will ensure the pet is comfortable before departing. I will provide pets access to water at all times, and pay close attention for any signs of discomfort. I always keep a first aid kit handy. I do not offer treats or foods that are approved of by the owner first. If I notice anything concerning I will notify the pet owner. I'll also provide cute update photos for the owners reassurance.

About: I have experience with dogs with anxiety who use medication, needy/clingy dogs, and dogs with disabilities. I am extremely thorough and patient in case something goes wrong with them and I maintain a calm demeanor at all times. When it comes to instructions, please provide a brief, detailed description of your pet's daily routine and I'll follow it to the letter. I'm currently a graduate student at CSU; summers are a slow period for me. I am more than willing to babysit pets for as many nights, walks, feeding times as needed. During school time I will do walks, feeding visits and the occasional overnight weekend stay. I am committed to your pet's comfort level and will adapt to their schedule to the best of my ability. I will spoil them rotten because I absolutely love all dogs and cats of all shapes and mannerisms. Even if they hate me. If I am confused about anything regarding your pet's behavior, such as licking paws, over-grooming, an increase in urination, I will let you know about it as soon as I see it. I also LOVE talking to the pets so I will have full-on conversations with them. I'm especially good with repeat visits so if you are interested in having a one-time sitter for the next few years, I'm MORE than willing to take up that responsibility. Familiarity is very important with pets and as mentioned before, I am focused on the pet's comfort.

About: In the few years I’ve been caring for various animals of my own and others, I feel I treat them as if they are my own human children. I see them as more than pets but companions that deserves a home away from home. I work from home most nights and have plenty of time to care and closely monitor your pets. Playtime is always a given with my own dogs as well I can ensure you that while your pets are in my possession, they are closely monitored and will be entertained. Like stated before I work from home most nights so I’m flexible to work and care at the same time

About: I have loved animals for as long as I can remember. I currently have a cat and a dog. They are my babies! My cat is very chill. She doesn’t really care for others lol. My pup is the opposite. She loves everyone. She wants to play with everyone but she knows her limits. I have 4 years of experience with dogs. Including dog daycare, walking, pet sitting, and giving baths and nail trims. I can train puppies on basic commands like sit, stay, paw, etc. I am currently in school during the morning. So I have plenty of time in the afternoon and evening to take care and love your pup! I have a fenced home with a big backyard and front. So your pup can run around and have enough space for physical play. I do have an energetic playful pup of my own. Who loves to meet new people and other pups. I believe your pet and mines will have so much fun!

About: I have had pets all my life, and absolutely love them. I love taking dogs on walks, playing with them, and giving them the love and care that they deserve! Dogs are wonderful, and they deserve all the happiness that we give them. Walking your dog is such an important thing to do, and I would love to have the opportunity to walk your dog if you are busy. I know life can get hectic, which is why I am here to help you out if you need it! Thank you! I work full time, and work a rotating shift schedule. What I work changes every week, so I have no doubts I'll be able to help you with what you need! I personally have two dogs, and have had dogs growing up my entire life. Getting the energy out of your pets by walking them or playing with them is so important for them to live a full life.

I have also trusted Jaden to come into my home to care for Jackie whiIe I was away for business. His compassion for animals is Top Notch!”

“Rebecca has successfully raised dogs from puppyhood as well as caring for dogs beginning in their adulthood. These dogs have come from breeders and rescue shelters, so she’s confident around all personalities and life stages of dog! Rebecca patiently acclimated a very skittish and fearful dog to life with people and now he’s absolutely thriving - I highly recommend her for dog sitting.”
