About: I’ve had cats and dogs since I was born, and have been taking care of them for as long as I can remember. I enjoy taking care of my family and friends’ pets, and I can’t wait to do the same for you!! I am a 4th year medical student with some free time, as I am currently in interview season. I have plenty of time for drop ins and daily walks, as well as home stays! I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable and care for in their own home or in my home. I respect each pets individual boundaries, routines, and needs while giving them plenty of patience and attention. My goal is to make sure your pets are in good hands and feel happy and secure while you are away.

About: My love for dogs started at age 7 when I got my first dog, and I've never looked back. Growing up with dogs gave me hands on experience through every stage of life, from energetic puppies to gentle seniors. That lifelong bond has also given me a natural understanding of dog behavior, which helps me keep every pet calm, happy, and well cared for. I have open availability, making pet care a natural and flexible part of my everyday routine. Your pet will always be my priority. Feel free to message me with any questions! Your pet's well being is my top priority. Every visit includes fresh food, clean water, plenty of exercise, and playtime tailored to your pet's personality and energy level. I treat every animal like my own.

About: Growing up I was the girl on the street who preferred petsitting to babysitting, and as soon I could in my 20s, I adopted the sickest oldest cats in the facilities and loved them until their deaths. In my 30s I’ve mixed it up and have two big rescue dogs, and we’ve been at the dog park nearly every day for 6 years now. Wow they grow fast! I’d love to share a moment of your lives with a walk or overnight, and I’ll treat them like family — only better. :) I am available Monday-Sunday. There are many parks and we walk several times a day and play on- and off-leash. Basically, my two dogs are my life right now so I thought I’d try this to have something to do! I have a two-bedroom apartment but one is devoted to the dogs and there is extra space in my master room if dogs don’t need to sleep together. While I only have a balcony, it is good enough for my dogs to sunbathe on and stare at passersby. Additionally, there are many parks nearby and we walk several times a day and play, off- and on-leash available. I’m open for questions. I’d love to have your pet to add to my life while I pursue stand up comedy.

About: As a longtime dog owner myself, I know how important it is to have someone you genuinely trust caring for your pet. I’ve spent the past 8 years caring for my own dog through different stages of life and am very comfortable with daily walks, feeding routines, medications, special diets, senior dogs, and pets who may need a little extra patience or attention. I’m also a certified Physician Assistant, so being dependable, attentive to detail, and calm in unexpected situations comes naturally to me. I’m happy to follow detailed care instructions and will treat your pet’s routine as carefully as I would my own. I also know how reassuring updates can be when you’re away, so you can expect plenty of communication and photos! I currently have a very flexible schedule while transitioning into my first position as a Physician Assistant, which gives me plenty of availability for weekday and weekend walks and drop-in visits. I’m happy to help with both occasional care and a consistent schedule for families who need recurring visits. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet and entering your home. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine and care instructions closely, including feeding, walks, medications, and any special needs. I’m attentive to changes in behavior or wellbeing and will keep you updated with photos and messages during each visit. I’m also respectful of your home and will always make sure doors, gates, leashes, and other safety measures are secure before I leave.

About: I’ve been around and loved dogs quite literally all 27 years of my life. From a teacup Chihuahua to a Rottweiler/German Shepherd mix, I have owned and loved dogs of all shapes and sizes. I truly believe they are man’s best friend and should be treated as such! My living situation does not allow for pets at this time, so I am happy to interact with pets as much as I can. I’m currently working full time in church ministry, which allows much flexibility during the week days. I am fairly open on all days of the week except for Tuesdays. I also am happy to dog sit in the client’s home on weekends and during the week as needed. For all services, whether walks or overnight stays, I would be happy to provide the client with as many updates as they would like throughout the service, as well as send picture updates! I am happy to do whatever makes the client feel most at ease and comfortable.

About: I have loved and been surrounded by dogs since I was a baby, and began helping other with theirs around the age of 12! I grew up with large dogs like Dobermans and Weimaraners, but have experience caring for dogs of all sizes such as Dachshunds, Bassett Hounds, Labs and Terrier Mixes! I am comfortable working with puppies and dogs being crate trained! I currently work from home Monday-Friday. My jobs gives me the flexibility to be away from my desk most afternoons starting around 2PM as long as I can be reached by phone. I try to walk around 3/4 miles a day and walking a dog for at least part of that is a great way to fill my time! I do not offer in home care as I have cats at home. When I am in your home, I will follow any rules set by you. I do not lets dogs off leash for their safety, and the safety of others. If I am going to be walking with your dog, I will do my best to assess a walking route with the lease vehicle traffic. If there is not a good route, I will be sure to stay well around of my surrounds and keep space between your dog(s) and the road.

About: I love dogs, and while I’m not planning on getting one of my own right now, I’d love the opportunity to care for yours! Since I work remotely from home, I have the flexibility to give your dog plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. My goal is to make sure your pup feels safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work remotely from home and have a flexible schedule. That allows me to give dogs regular attention, take them on walks, provide playtime, and make sure they stay on their normal feeding and potty schedule. I genuinely enjoy being around dogs, so caring for them doesn’t feel like a chore! it’s something I look forward to. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where your pet feels comfortable and well cared for while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own. I make sure they have fresh water, regular meals, plenty of exercise, and lots of attention throughout the day. Since I work remotely, I’m home most of the time, so your dog won’t be left alone for long periods. I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any special instructions you provide. I also understand that every dog has a different personality, so I take the time to help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.

About: From a young age, I’ve had a deep connection with animals, understanding their needs and respecting their unique personalities. My earliest memories include befriending all kinds of creatures, which taught me that every living being deserves care and compassion. As your pet sitter, I bring this lifelong love and respect to ensure your fur baby is not only well-cared for but also truly comfortable and happy. With years of experience in pet sitting for both dogs and cats, I understand how important it is for your pet to feel at ease in your absence. You can rest assured that your beloved companion will receive attentive, loving care in a safe environment. I am committed to providing the best possible experience for your pet, leaving them as happy and content as when you left them in my care. Pet care fits into my routine seamlessly because I have the flexibility to set my own hours with my cleaning business. This allows me to dedicate specific times to ensure each pet receives the care and attention they need, whether it’s feeding, exercise, or playtime. In caring for pets, I prioritize safety, trust, and a comfortable environment. Building trust is crucial, so I get to know each pet’s routines and preferences, keeping owners updated. I ensure a welcoming environment in the client’s home by maintaining clean and comfortable spaces, and providing tailored care to meet each pet’s needs—whether it’s exercise and play for dogs or cozy spots and enrichment for cats.

About: As someone who grew up on a farm, I have experience caring for a variety of animals. I also volunteered in a vet clinic so I am comfortable with administering medications if needed. I work as a full time in-home social worker but my schedule is flexible. My days consist of driving around town so if I need to stop by your home midday, that’s an option. I can also flex my work hours which would allow me to stop by in the mornings or evenings as well. I’m often fully available on weekends. I live in a medium sized home with a lot of open space for play. I do not own a crate, but I do have a large spare bathroom and this is where my own rescue pets have stayed after surgeries or while adjusting to their new home. There are several barn/sliding doors in my home which allow me to section it off and allow more space/privacy as needed. I also have a fenced in backyard and live near a nature preserve so there is ample space for roaming and play.

I was traveling from out of state to AL for a wedding. Scarlet agreed to come to my hotel room and walk my two dogs while I was at my sister’s wedding. She was communicative and on time, which gave me peace of mind on an otherwise busy day. I would highly recommend her.

I know "perfect" doesn't exist, but I can't think of a better word to describe the pup caregiver that Joy is. She not only exudes love for our dogs but she is so knowledgeable! She clearly is a dog trainer and listed to the cues of our dogs and gave them the walks that each needed. She took our 14 year old dog with arthritis, Jax, out for a slow paced "sniff" walk for his enrichment and then came back and took our higher energy, Lola, out for a longer walk. There was one time where we saw Jax went out twice since she wanted to ensure he got his poop out. They were so happy and loved. Your fur babies are in the best of hands with Joy!

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

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.
