About: I have taken care of many dogs through out my years from small chihuahuas to Great Pyrenees. I currently own a German Shepherd, Blue Heeler and two Great Pyrenees that I love with all my heart. I have experience with many breeds and also with training dogs. I can potty train them and teach them a few discipline skills like sit and stays and also teach them funny tricks. I have always loved animals and I want to use this opportunity to experience more with animals as a future veterinarian. I believe becoming a dog sitter will help me have more experience with getting to know different dogs. I honestly believe this will be a fun experience to meet new people and their beloved pets.
About: I've cared for friends' dogs and cats over the years and have a cat of my own. I also spent lots of time with my husband’s dog. I'm comfortable with pets of all kinds and love giving them the attention and care they need. I work full-time during the day, but I'm available for pet care in the late evenings, at night, and on weekends. Whether it's drop-ins, or walks, I’m happy to help when I’m off work! I'm a trustworthy and responsible pet caregiver, and if your pet is staying with me, they’ll be in a safe, loving environment. My home has a spacious, fenced yard where they can play and relax securely.
About: I regularly help care for my parents’ 6 year old Schnauzer and my sister’s 7 year old dog, so I’m very familiar with daily walks, feeding routines, playtime, and giving them lots of attention and affection. Spending time with them has helped me understand every different personalities and energy levels, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m a recent college grad working part-time, so my schedule’s pretty flexible. I’m available a good chunk of the day to take care of cats and dogs. Feeding, walks, litter box or playtime, all of that fits in easily, and since I’m not gone for long stretches, they won’t be alone too much! For drop-ins and walks, I will follow your routine for feeding and care needs including litter box scooping for cats, keep leashes/harnesses secure for dogs, and stay attentive the whole time. I clean up after walks, refresh water and food, and double check doors are locked before I leave. I always send an update with photos afterward :)
“NaTia was professional, caring, responsible and a very nice person. She kept us informed during the drop in visits and sent photos of our dogs during each visit even though they refused to look at the camera. She truly whethered the storms to ensure they were okay. Thank for taking such good care of my pups on short notice.”
“Ashanti stepped in at the last minute to help with my pup, and she was so easy to with despite the fact that this was our first time booking together! She responded quickly, ensured all was taken care of, and provided great feedback on the visit. Definitely recommend and will be booking with again in the future!”
“I felt very comfortable leaving my cat with Nathan and Priscilla! They were communicative, kind, and quick to treat Panini like part of their family. It was nice getting updates and pics while we were away. I'd board with them again!”

About: 🐾 About Me: A Calm, Patient Sanctuary for Your Fur Babies Hi, I’m Noelle! I’m a proud cat mom to two wonderful fur babies, and caring for animals is something that genuinely brings me joy. One of my cats was actually a 4-week-old stray kitten that I successfully nursed and cared for, and watching her grow into the happy, healthy cat she is today has been incredibly rewarding. I also absolutely love dogs! I have experience walking dogs as large as a Pit Bull, including my aunt’s sweet Pit Bull, Zion, who I loved taking on walks. Whether I’m giving a dog a good walk, keeping a cat company, or simply sitting nearby while they do their own thing, I love being able to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. One of my favorite things to do with my own cats is sit on the balcony with them (safely on their leashes, of course!) and watch their curious little minds take in the world around them. 🌟 Specializing in Shy, Anxious, or Senior Care I’m very attentive to the animals in my care and tend to notice the little things—from changes in behavior and body language to their individual cues, comfort levels, and boundaries. I believe every pet has their own personality and deserves patience, respect, affection, and care tailored specifically to them. Because of this, I excel with pets who need a little extra time, gentleness, or understanding to feel secure: • Timid Kittens & Selective Cats: As a cat parent who has handled everything from bottle-baby stages to adult dynamics, I speak their language fluently and am completely comfortable letting a shy cat set the pace. • Anxious or Senior Pups: I hold a naturally quiet, steady frequency that is incredibly reassuring to older dogs or pets navigating physical vulnerabilities (like vision or hearing changes) who thrive on a predictable, soothing routine rather than high-energy chaos. 🏡 What I Offer Whether it’s dropping in for quiet companionship, sticking to precise feeding schedules, or managing house-sitting stays, I bring a reliable, observant, and respectful eye to your home. I naturally drop into a calm rhythm that keeps your environment peaceful and your pets completely relaxed. I’d love the opportunity to give your pets that same level of deep attention and care while you’re away! I currently work full time Monday- Friday from 8am - 4:30pm. I’d be happy to check on your fur babies after I get off of work. I work from home about 2-3 days per week as well! I am willing to sit with your cat or dog while I work some days if you ever needed. When it comes to caring for pets, safety and trust are always my top priorities. At home, I’m very intentional about creating a calm, comfortable, and secure environment for my own cats. I keep a close eye on them, pay attention to their routines and surroundings, and make sure they have a safe space where they can relax and be themselves. I’m also very mindful of doors, windows, food, household hazards, and anything else that could potentially put a pet at risk. Most importantly, I respect each animal’s individual boundaries and never force interaction when they’re uncomfortable. I’ll bring that same level of attentiveness and care to your pets—following your instructions, maintaining their normal routines as closely as possible, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. My goal is for you to have peace of mind knowing your pet is not only being watched, but genuinely looked after.
“Carmen and Dee were absolutely wonderful watching our two cats over the 4th of July holiday weekend. They came by a week before for a meet so we could get all questions out of the way beforehand. And during the actual visit, they brought a package inside for us and took many pictures of the cats playing and showing they were well cared for. Highly recommend!”
