“Samantha was amazing!! We had a graduation in Stillwater and would be gone all day. All of our fur kids loved her so much and all the pics she sent were amazing! Samantha definitely cares for your fur babies like her own. Highly recommend!”


“I really appreciated Jennifer while I was on vacation for a week! She took great care of my pup and my KitKat, giving me regular picture updates. They were played with, given outside time and treats just as I would do. Jennifer really made me feel at peace!”


“Christian was so nice to watch our cat on short notice. We are so grateful that he was able to spend time with Meerk since she can get lonely. We would love to have him watch her again next time we need a pet sitter.”


About: Caring for your fur family is my number one priority, they will be loved as if my own!! I became sole caretaker of family pets starting at the age of 9. This includes puppies gotten for siblings much younger and my own pups starting in 2014. Every fur member in my house is potty trained and can sit (including recent fosters). Dot my girl that is now 14 can roll over and lived a lavish life that includes supplements she must have to eat her food. Although I have a fenced in backyard, we go outside together. I also support my sister with her fur babes Joe and Ripley (the brown and black pittbull pups in photos). Joes has lots of allergies and when they are out of town auntie Em takes care of them! They go for walks, we have several when mom and dad are gone. Knowing the love I have for my own fur family members I understand the importance of safety when away. I intend to help others feel peace when away from fur family members by providing care that is diligent, consistent, by directions, and most importantly loving. We all deserve to have our pets in safe hands, I am grateful to have a large family that support each other in caring for 4 legged members, I want to share that with others! Currently I am seeking part time employment making me free all days of the week to provide pet care! Eventually it may transition to 3-4 days open for pet care, but for now it is an open schedule! I have reliable transportation that will ensure appropriate no care is available and ready. Currrently my pets are on a morning and evening schedule for feeding. In fully honesty they are outside frequently throughout the day, even on days I go into office, due to having a roommate with opposite schedule la that helps care for them. My feline family members do not go outside and the litter box is cleaned daily. Currently I have 4 watering holes, my oldest gal pup is fed separately and cats fed in higher location. I love all my fur babies and want to share that love with yours! If trusted to care for fur family I would follow directions, practice honesty, and raise concerns when appropriate. Most importantly your pets would be cared for in a loving manner and maybe feel less lonely when you return! I hope we get to meet and most importantly I hope to meet your fur family :)

About: Since a young age, I've taken care of many different kinds of dogs, big or small, puppies or elderly, and rescues. I've always had a genuine love for animals, especially dogs, and I can tell dogs feel my energy! I like to play and care for dogs, feeding them, throwing toys, running around, walking them, or just sitting with them. I can handle any type of dog, whether that be needy, high energy, timid rescue, or laid back dogs. I've never met a dog who hasn't warmed up to me fast. I'm currently not working, so I'm practically free almost everyday. Even when I have a lot of stuff in my schedule, I'm still very flexible. I can feed them easily if they have a schedule or specific eating habits. I can make sure they go to the bathroom regularly and stay hydrated. I'll always make them feel safe and secure when I'm caring for them, and help them whenever I can. I pay attention to needs and am quick to act. Walking them is not a problem, and I can go pretty long distances or run to get in some exercise for them.
