About: I love dogs and cats. Owned a dog (sick for many years), ASPCA volunteer in the past. Active and love to exercise. Happiest with a great animal by my side. I am a part time worker and I have a lot of time to spend quality time with your dear family member. I love to find what your pup likes to play with and do on walks. I do not pet-sit but I am concerned about safety. I will secure your entrances and exits, and follow the rules of traffic safety on walks.

About: As the owner of four cats, I have daily hands-on experience providing consistent, attentive care to animals. Caring for multiple pets has taught me to be patient, reliable, and attentive to each animal's unique needs and personality. While my personal experience has been with cats, I'm comfortable caring for dogs by following their established routines, including feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and providing plenty of love and attention. I'll treat your dog with the same care and dedication I give my own pets! I'm currently a graduate student, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care throughout the week. I keep my availability up to date and do my best to accommodate your pet's routine, whether that's morning walks, midday drop-ins, or evening visits. I believe consistency is important, so I'll always communicate clearly and provide dependable, attentive care while you're away. Your pet's comfort, safety, and well-being are always my top priorities. Since I'm entering their space, I believe it's important to let each pet take the lead. I take the time to build trust at their own pace and never force interactions or affection. Every pet has a unique personality, and I respect their individual needs and boundaries. I'll follow your pet's routine as closely as possible, whether that includes feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medication (if needed), or simply providing companionship. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away by maintaining the consistency they're used to. As a pet owner myself, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member in someone else's care. That's why I'll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout each visit, so you can have peace of mind knowing they're happy, safe, and receiving the same level of care and attention I'd want for my own pets.

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, especially those who need patience, structure, and understanding. I have a strong background in caring for both young, high-energy dogs and senior pets who require a gentler, more attentive approach. Over the years, I’ve adopted and cared for shelter dogs, including one of my most meaningful experiences: transforming my 3-year-old German Shepherd who came from an abusive and neglected background. She was fearful, submissive, and untrained when I first brought her home. Through consistent training, positive reinforcement, and a calm, stable environment, she gradually became a confident, obedient, affectionate, and deeply trusting companion. She is now 15 years old and remains a living example of the patience and care I bring to every animal I work with. This experience has taught me how to read animal behavior, build trust with nervous or reactive dogs, and adapt care to each pet’s unique needs. Whether it’s helping a young dog learn structure and good habits or providing comfort and routine for senior dogs, I focus on creating a safe, loving, and balanced environment where every pet feels secure and understood. I pick up shifts bartending but I cant adjust my schedule around sitting others dogs. I will be free when needed so no worries there. I have a nice size balcony but that the dogs can hangout on if they would like but i also take my girl out often.

“I had the pleasure of hiring Elizabeth to take care of my furry friends, and I couldn't be more delighted with their service. From the very start, her professionalism and genuine love for animals were evident. Her punctuality and reliability were impeccable, providing me with peace of mind knowing my pet was in capable hands. Not only did she meet expectations, but she also formed a wonderful bond with my dog. I strongly recommend Elizabeth to anyone seeking exceptional care for their beloved canine companion.”

About: I’m a cat mom currently working from home and would love for your pets to keep us company. With 15 years of experience caring for dogs and cats for friends, neighbors, and pets of my own, I’m familiar with routines—feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, and showering your pet with lots of love and attention ❤️🐾 I have a 1-year-old British Shorthair, so I’m very familiar with cat care, litter box routines, and reading body language. I’ll send regular photo updates so you can relax while you’re away. I also speak Mandarin :) My schedule is flexible and I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and boardings on weekdays and weekends, including mornings and evenings. I’m dependable with timing, quick to respond, and I’ll keep you updated throughout the visit. Safety comes first. I follow your instructions closely, keep pets secure on leash, and double-check doors and gates. I’m careful with feeding rules, routines, and home guidelines, and I keep your space tidy. I’ll send updates and contact you right away if anything seems off.

“Julia took care of my pair of large dogs making sure they walked early due to extreme heat. It was a perfect match for their personalities and her style. I am grateful for her care of my dog kids when I was away!!”

About: Hi! For the past decade, I’ve been caring for dogs of all ages and sizes in my warm, spacious Blackhawk home. I also do dog walks and drop in visit for those pups that need care in their own home. There’s a yard with plenty of room to run, play, and explore at my house, and I make sure every dog feels like part of the family. Whether it’s snuggles on the couch, fun playtime, or relaxing walks, your pup will receive lots of love and attention. I have excellent references from happy pet parents in the Blackhawk/Danville area, and my husband, sweet 13-year-old son and friendly 4-year-old Shih Tzu love welcoming new furry friends! Your pup will have lots of company, attention, and care throughout the day. I truly love having dogs by my side—whether it’s snuggles, playtime in the yard, or plenty of walks around the neighborhood. Every dog who stays with me is treated like family. Drop off and pick up only between 7 am and 7 pm. No Late pick ups please. I can also do local dog walks and drop in visits at your home. When caring for pets in my home, I always aim to keep them on the same routine and schedule they’re used to, helping them feel comfortable and at ease. I know how important consistency is for dogs, so I’m happy to follow their usual feeding times, walk schedules, and any special care instructions you provide. Whether your pup loves early morning walks, afternoon playtime, or quiet evening cuddles, I’ll make sure their day feels familiar and happy. My goal is to make their time with me feel like a true home away from home, filled with love, attention, and plenty of tail wags!

About: Hi! I’m a big animal lover and have been around dogs for about 7 years. I have two dogs of my own, so I’m really comfortable with both small and big pups. I’ve also helped friends take care of their cats before. I’m patient, gentle, and pretty attentive. I can help with walks, feeding, playtime, and just making sure your pet feels safe and happy. I’ve also used another walking app, so I’m used to meeting different dogs with different personalities. I treat every pet like my own and always try to pay attention to what they need 😊 My schedule is flexible, and I’m available on weekends as well. I can spend plenty of time with your pet and provide consistent care throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow all care instructions carefully and always stay attentive during walks and at home. I’m happy to send regular photo and video updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away. I’ll make sure your pet feels comfortable, cared for, and well looked after at all times.

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover with experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I’ve had rescues, energetic pups, protective breeds, and sweet seniors, so I'm comfortable with just about any temperament or need. Over the years I've dog-sat for friends and family, and I’d love to help if your dog needs long walks, playtime, or just some company, while you’re busy or away. I’m comfortable with dogs of all breeds and sizes and always make sure to keep owners updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind. Can’t wait to meet you and your dog! My schedule is fairly flexible on both weekdays and weekends. I'm available for midday walks, potty breaks, and overnight stays. Happy to accommodate last-minute requests. I will always prioritize keeping your dog safe, comfortable, and stress-free whether at my place or yours. My neighborhood is residential with plenty of walking areas and green spaces.

About: I have grown up with dogs most of my life and have experience taking care of cats, rabbits, turtles, and fish. My experience with dogs includes: training, dog walking, and administering medication. I have a 5 1/2 year old mini double doodle named Kota and trained him myself. I pride myself on providing quality animal care and want to make sure your pet is safe and happy during their time with me. Currently I am taking a sabbatical and have plenty of time to take care of your pup! Depending on your preference and your dog's needs, I can provide plenty of physical activity and mental stimulation. I am happy to take care of your pet in your home and do daily walks. Please let me know if your pet is comfortable around other dogs. If they're not, I can easily leave my dog at home while I focus on your pet's needs.

About: I have grown up caring for dogs and cats and I started pet sitting at 12 years of age! I am responsible, I pay close attention to small details, and I will love your pet like my own! I am a helper and want to make your life easier! Whether you’re gone at work or on vacation, I want you to know that your animal is safe and loved while you’re away! I currently have a flexible schedule and can do drop in visits, overnight visits, and dog walking! Right when I walk in the door, I’ll say hi and give the animal attention if they want it. I read the room to see if it will be a cheerful introduction or a more mellow hello. I make sure that all their needs are taken care of and that they get extra love before I go! I play ball and go on walks for fun exercise with the dogs! I play with cats and love on them too! I also know about animal behavior from past jobs and volunteer puppy raising for future service dogs, so I understand when an animal needs a break or a boundary made- with me or others.

“Asha is very patient with our anxious dog who is growing to really enjoy her walks with Asha.”

“Desiree did a meet and greet with my dogs the day w and she was so nice and bubbly. My dogs took to her right away. She listened to all my quirky instructions like they were normal! On the morning of the walk she arrived on time and kept me informed with pictures and details of the walk. I feel happy to have found her and on short notice too!”
