“Kayla was absolutely amazing with both of our 50+ lb dogs. One of our dogs is anxious around new people, but Kayla’s calm demeanor made them fast friends. She was able to schedule last minute and was very accommodating to our schedule. She left the house spotless, kept the dogs on an active schedule, and regularly updated us on how they were doing. We will definitely be booking again”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my strong attention to detail, genuine love for animals, and experience with pets of all ages and needs. I have hands-on experience training puppies with basic commands and crate training, as well as providing gentle, attentive care for senior pets who may need medication, extra patience, or mobility support. I’m also highly reliable and communicative I always keep pet parents updated with messages and photos, so they feel connected and reassured while they're away. My calm, friendly approach helps pets feel safe and at ease, whether it’s their first time with a sitter or they need special care. I treat every animal like they’re my own, and that personal connection makes all the difference. Pet care fits into my daily routine as a consistent and rewarding responsibility. Every morning starts with feeding my dog and taking him for a quick walk to get some energy out before the day begins. In the evenings, I usually spend about 30 minutes either going on a longer walk or playing fetch at the park. On weekends, I make time for grooming like brushing his fur or giving him a bath if needed and sometimes schedule vet checkups or pick up new toys or treats. It’s a routine that keeps me grounded, and it’s always nice to end the day with a loyal companion by my side. When caring for pets in either my home or a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and consistent environment. For dogs, I ensure they have regular feeding times, fresh water, daily walks, and playtime to keep them mentally and physically stimulated. I also follow any specific instructions the client provides, such as administering medications or adhering to training routines. If I’m in a client’s home, I respect their space and maintain the pet’s regular schedule to reduce stress from their owner's absence. I clean up after the pet, monitor behavior for signs of illness or anxiety, and send updates (with photos) to the owner for peace of mind. Whether it’s overnight care, walking, or short visits, my goal is to make each pet feel safe and loved while their owner is away.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and I currently live with two small dogs that I’ve been taking care of for the last 8 years. I have a lot of experience with both extremely small dogs like Miniature Yorkies as well as large dogs like German Shepards. I think I’m also very good puppies and I would be happy to answer any questions you might have about me. I’m currently a fully online college student so I can take care of your pets at any hours on any day. If you need me to check on your pets at 2AM that’s fine with me.😊 I am happy to accommodate for your pets and keep their schedules as normal as possible while you are away. I can take them for their daily walk or continue feeding them at their normal times.
“This the second time Tricia has cared for our cat, and I can’t say enough about what she does. When we had a schedule issue, she was so considerate and willing to accommodate! I know our cat is as happy having Tricia at home with him, as he is with us being there! Five stars and a huge “Thank you!!”.”
About: Dogs have been a part of my life since I was 10 years old, and caring for them has always been my greatest joy. I was blessed to share 14 wonderful years with my last fur baby, and through that time, I truly understood how hard it is to leave your beloved pet behind when traveling. The biggest worry was always whether they were getting the same love and attention I gave them every day. That’s why I started dog sitting—to give pet parents the peace of mind that their babies are in the best hands. Since I work from home, I can provide constant care, affection, and companionship, ensuring your pup feels safe, happy, and loved while you're away. With me, they’ll get all the attention they need, so you can fully relax knowing they’re in a home filled with love! I work full time from home, so I can spend all day and night with your fur baby! My work is very flexible, so I am able to do walks and playtime whenever we want to! I have a 6ft fully fenced back yard great for running and playing! I also have a doggie door so they can go in and out whenever they want! I have dog beds in the home for use, if you do crate, no problem, just bring along their crate and we will accommodate whatever they are used to doing at home!
About: I've been surrounded by the loving presence of dogs and cats my entire life. This lifelong experience has given me a deep understanding of their needs and behaviors. I'm comfortable with all stages of pet life, from playful puppies to gentle seniors. I work from 6pm to 2 am so my days and afternoons are very flexible and free, perfect if you need me to take care of your pet while you are working. I taker care of them, play with them, make sure they eat and drink water when they need to, and make sure they are having a good time, always.

Sara H.
“Sara is great with animals and is super attentive and caring towards them. My dog Gypsy is a super sensitive and easily offended lab but that didn't stop Sara from friending her when we became friends in 2017. She would calmly call to her earning her trust and when my dog let her guard down they became best friends. I trust Sara with my dogs needs when I have to be out of town for a few days. She is a perfect fit to have your animal in her care!”
