“Theresa was prompt and friendly for our first meeting, with a very calm demeanor. Our dog Duke seemed to take to her straight away, and really enjoyed his walk. We will definitely be using her service again!”
“Olivia did an awesome job with Lili! Lili was definitely apprehensive and nervous with a new person but Olivia was super accommodating for Lili and gave her the space she needed. She also gets in a long walk for Lili which helps since I’m at work all day! Thanks Olivia!! Grateful to have you to help with Lili every week :)”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters? I genuinely love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and routine. Whether it’s a slow walk for an older pup or high-energy playtime for a young one, I meet animals where they are. I have two dogs of my own—Theo and Sage—so I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets. Beyond personal experience, I have a BA in animal science and I’m currently in the process of earning my master’s degree in Agricultural Leadership, Education, and Communication, with a focus on companion animals. I also work as an assistant educator, so I bring a calm, thoughtful approach to every visit. I’m confident administering medications, caring for nervous or senior pets, and yes—I genuinely don’t mind deep-cleaning litter boxes. I treat every animal like family, with patience, care, and a whole lot of love I’m currently working full time until 3pm. However Whether it’s morning walks, meal times, or evening play sessions, I’m used to planning my day around pets’ needs. I live in a three-story townhouse with plenty of space for pets to feel comfortable—whether they want to play or have their own quiet area. My own dogs are friendly, but I can easily keep pets separate if needed. I also have some dog training experience, so I’m confident handling different temperaments and routines. Your pet will be safe, loved, and well cared for here or in your home! I do ask that your pet be crate trained and doesn't bark in the crate since I do live very close to neighbors.
About: I’ve taken care of my dog who went through a traumatic hoarding situation at a young age. She is skiddish and stand off-ish when on walks and I’ve learned how to safely deal with these situations in over a decade of having her. I also take care of my cat who has food allergies; having to deal with frequent vomiting in the past and medication. I have also been a dog, chicken, and bird sitter for my neighbors whenever they go out on trips. I enjoy spending time with animals and will take as much time out of my schedule to be with them. I am a student at the university. My class schedule is late mornings and early evenings. I will have time every morning, lunch time, and evening to take care of your pets. On the weekends I am available for around the clock care! I work as a research assistant in a lab where safety is my number one concern. I will follow any procedure you have left me to a tee. When taking care of the pets I will make sure to match their energy so they do not feel intimidated. Making sure they get their necessities then providing enrichment when possible. If out on a walk or playing in a yard or park your pet would never be unsupervised and always on leash unless in a secure fenced in area.
About: I feel comfortable with dogs of any size, breed, or age. I am glad to follow any special instructions you give and do my best to keep your pets safe and as comfy as possible. I like to communicate or send pics while you're away so you can feel assured your pets are being well cared for. I have fostered many dogs (and adopted a few), so have experience with an array of personalities. I'm looking forward to meeting your pet family too. I work from 8 to 4:30 or 5, weekdays. Im happy to attend to your pets before and after work, in the evening and overnight, lunch breaks as well if needed. I prefer to "sitt" in your home in order to help keep them as comfy and on the same routine as possible. I believe in following the care instructions of the parents to a tee. I will give your fur babies lots of love and send you pics or videos if you'd like. I am trustworthy and dependable.
“Rachel came through on less than a day's notice and walked my dog, Jones, through an inconveniently timed rain shower. She was perfectly punctual and clearly adept at handling dogs. Jones came back very wet and equally happy. I will not ask Rachel to walk my dog through any more downpours if I can avoid it, but she's definitely the first person I'll go to when looking for dog care in the future.”
About: I have lived with dogs and cats my whole life since I was born with the dogs ranging in sizes from Chihuahuas to Rottweilers. I have volunteered at 2 different animal shelters since I was 15 years old as well as fostered both cats and dogs.

My schedule is completely open on weekends for boarding. Your pet will get plenty of attention, playtime, and potty breaks! I live in a spacious apartment within a secure, gated community surrounded by walking trails. My home is a quiet, low-stress environment with just me and my roommate. As a professional caregiver for humans, I am highly experienced in following specific routine instructions and will treat your space and your pet with the utmost respect.
About: One of my earliest memories was at the age of five. My mom brought my sister home from the hospital after she was born and I asked, "Can we have a kitten instead?!" Our parents started us with goldfish like most do. We then graduated to hamsters, followed by kittens. Currently, I have two dogs of my own that I consider to be my fur babies. Our pets can be much like our children, so I know how important it is to have someone you can trust to provide the care your animals need. My experience with animals comes from having my own as well as taking care of friends and family members pets as well. I love animals so much, I paint them on canvas as another passion of mine. I am looking forward to caring for your pet and providing whatever special needs they may have in order to make you and your animal feel comfortable while you are away. I work from home as an Artist so my schedule is flexible in between appointments outside of the home. I am unavailable Tuesday nights after 5pm. Looking forward to do whatever I need to stick to your pet's routine to keep them stress free, happy and healthy. Whether they enjoy long walks, active play or just snuggles and pets I would love to accommodate whatever their needs may be.

About: Hello, all. I have owned dogs and cats my whole life and am fascinated by them! I believe in giving excellent care to all animals that come my way. I originally wanted to be a vet but ended in wildlife biology. I've volunteered for shelters and rehabilitation for animals. I understand the love owners have for their pets and treat all like they're my own. I am a current graduate student with only a single class I need to attend. I can work from home, so that gives me plenty of time to take care of the pets I sit. I like to spend as much time as possible with the pets I watch. I feel that many pets become anxious when their owners leave, so I want to provide as much care for them as possible. I am currently in a small house with my little dog and cats. I work from home, so walks can happen regularly. I can crate your dog if needed, but roaming under my watchful eye is something I am more than willing to do.

About: I’ve been employed at a vet’s office for nearly 7 years, and care for all sorts of pets on the regular! I can medicate your pets with little difficulty, and care for animals with mobility issues. If needed, we can also do happy visits if your pup or kitty is a bit more shy than you think people are used to! Pet care is currently my full time job! I take weekends off to spend with family or friends, or the critters I’m sitting. Either way, I’ll do my best to meet YOUR pet’s needs and more! I’ll care for your pets however you do!

If something doesn’t work for either of us, we can discuss and go from there!
About: I was raised in Africa with countless pets and am a true animal lover who loves caring for your special family member(s) as if they are my own. I love to play with, walk, groom, and spend time with pets and provide a warm, loving, and safe environment. I also know how hard it is to leave your babies with strangers and take special care to send you pictures and videos while you're apart. Let me know what your baby needs and I'll make sure they have the best time possible while you're away. Please note that I do have two very friendly and playful Boston Terriers in the home but if your pet prefers its own space, I have a huge house and a private room dedicated to your pet if they need it. I work out of my home, which is a enormous space with a large fenced back yard. I also love walking dogs several times a day and will be able to provide 24/7 care for your pet in my home. I have a fenced yard, two separate rooms just for pets (should they need to be alone), and a large vehicle for transport. I also have a large kennel set up in case your pet responds best to being kenneled and a spa bathroom that makes grooming a piece of cake for your pet!

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Augerville. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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.
