“Danielle was so great with my two cats! I really appreciated her quick communication and her flexibility with their changing routines, since recently moving to a home with a dog. Her care and attention towards them made me feel super at ease. I will definitely use her again!”

About: I’m a big animal person! I’ve always grown up with a number of different animals that, of course, includes cats and dogs. I’ve dog sat puppies, teenage, and senior dogs alike! I started dog sitting for friends and family when I was about 16, and have always lived with dogs. I super understand how fur babies are just like family and have a big heart for them! I’m currently a full time student and I work part time. I have been having an itch to spend time with dogs because they just make me happy to be honest! Life can be stressful, so I’d consider caring for your pups a stress relief and a middle booster for sure. I can’t exactly have my own dog at the moment, so I thought pet sitting might be the next best thing! I would follow the owners guidelines and make sure to take care of wolf their fur babies exactly how they would! Playing with them, feeding them, taking them out, and giving them cuddles whatever it may be! I have a cat who is my best friend so I understand how important these fur babies are to us!

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a kid. We’ve had everything from a maltipoo to a 100+ lb German shepherd so my variety in dogs is large. I would be happy to take your dog on walks, dogsit on vacation at your place or mine, and check in for potty breaks. I currently work part time and have plenty of time to spend with your dogs. I’m available most days and evenings except tues/thurs and Saturday during the day. My Saturday shifts are typically no longer than 8 hours. I live in an apartment with no yard so dog sitting would most likely be best in the comfort of your home unless that’s not what your dog needs. I’m happy to sit at my apartment as we can go on walks or play at the local part for grass time.

About: My name is Anna! I am a dog lover, owner and walking aficionado. I have spent the majority of my life both around and taking care of animals - from family and friends to my very own, dogs become instant family to me. I enjoy that happy dog smile of outside freedom and will make sure your pup is getting the fresh air, exercise and love they deserve! I'm experienced and confident with dogs of all breeds for games of fetch, long walks to match their energy (fast-paced, mellow, etc.,) administering medicine, to the classic belly scratch they crave. I look forward to meeting your pup and providing a wonderful experience :) I work remotely and have flexibility for all check-ins, neighborhood walks, potty breaks, administering medicine, etc. I am available mornings, midday and evenings to support your dog's needs. I offer the highest level of respect for your home and will ensure your dog picked up after, mail is brought in, if plants need watered, etc.
“Annie was an amazing person to take care of my dog. Annie was very responsive and letting me know when they were available as well as all the updates. I needed to know that my dog was taken care of. When my dog was injured, I had special circumstances that Annie needed to follow and she did so With a positive attitude. I would recommend any for any pet parent.”

About: I am a young, energetic, and dedicated pet sitter with a lot of experience caring for dogs, cats and more. One of my greatest strengths is the genuine connection I build with animals. I have loved and cared for animals since I was a child, and treat every pet as if they were my own. I have experience fostering both puppies and senior dogs, giving me an understanding of the unique needs. I am patient, attentive, and creative when it comes to keeping pets engaged, comfortable, and happy through play. I have a very open schedule so pet care is my full time job at the moment I’m still job searching, and I love animals so I’m grateful I’m able to hang out with dogs for a job. I provide attentive care based on each pet’s individual needs and routine. My experience includes fostering both puppies and senior dogs, so I am comfortable caring for pets with different energy levels and requirements. I ensure pets are fed on their regular schedule, always have access to fresh clean water, and receive baths as needed. I take dogs outside frequently for bathroom breaks and provide walks throughout the day as needed. For social and active dogs, I also enjoy taking them to safe places such as dog parks or Fiesta Island for exercise and enrichment. Safety is always a priority, and when caring for multiple pets, I carefully manage feeding times and treats to prevent any conflicts and create a calm, positive environment for everyone.
“Roni is a great professional sitter. She took such great care of our pets, and they looked genuinely happy and content. Our sweet Jerry Berry felt comfortable and loved. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter.”

“Our pups loved Phillip the moment they met him. He stopped by and did a meet and greet, which was very comforting. One could tell he also enjoys being around dogs. He kept us updated daily and even collected our mail and packages. We left him a letter regarding caring for the pups and he followed every step. On the last day he spent a few minutes with us and the dogs and you could tell they were happy to see him. Will definitely use him again.”

“My dog immediately loved Zaira, and Zaira was great with her. I really appreciated Zaira’s messages and pictures throughout the day - I knew my dog was in great hands. I hope to be hiring Zaira again soon!”

“Vanessa was great! My cat tends to be skittish and kind of unwelcoming but he seemed to take to her super well. Appreciate all the extra effort playing and spending time with him.”


“David is a great man! He took care of my puppy like it was his own. My dog was recovering from a sickness and couldn’t be boarded(to protect other dogs). He had medication he was taking to help. David came and helped him through it! I am BEYOND grateful for the services that he provided. He sent plenty of photos and videos so that I can track my puppy’s progress. He was very communicative the entire time! Easily, my go-to sitter!! Highly recommend his services!”

About: I started by taking care of my moms 4 dogs when she would go on vacations and needed a dog sitter. That really taught me how to feed them efficiently and when to take them outside to go potty. From there I learned how to hang out with them and play with them efficiently. I am a college student with classes Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday I am available for the entire day and night. On Wednesday and Friday I'm available at night, Monday I'm not because I have a night class. Staying over night is not a problem, along with check ins during the days even on school days. I love dogs and am really good at feeding them, taking them outside, and playing with them. I'm not a trainer, but someone who is good at taking care of them while you are away. My mom has 4 small dogs so I'm very familiar with smaller dogs, but I have also watched bigger dogs as well.
“Sandra is great with my basset hounds. They were not happy about getting their bath at first (being the spoiled children they are), but she has charmed them and now they are happy to see her!”

This is the second time Vanessa has taken care of my sweet old gal, Reiki. Vanessa is responsible, reliable and patient and affectionate with her, which I dearly appreciate. I feel anxiety when away because I know how much Reiki is emotionally anchored by me being around all the time, and I worry. However, having Vanessa helps a LOT -- she communicates lots of reassuring information including photos. It's hard to properly express how much this helps in knowing Reiki is in good hands and that "everything is ok." Thank you Vanessa!!

Jenya was so responsive, proactive about setting up a meet and greet and asked thoughtful questions in advance. When I got home my animals were happy as can be, thanks to her excellent care! She also took great, cute pics which helped when I was missing them! Highly recommend!
