About: I have been taking care of all sorts of animals as far back as I can remember. I have experience in caring for puppies/kittens, geriatric, and exotic pet care. I am a certified veterinary assistant as well as having 2 years of experience as a kennel technician. I also have experience with special needs animals such as diabetic and paralytic animals. I currently work part-time so I have plenty of time to care and play with your fur babies! I am also not out of the house much when I am not working so I will have plenty of one on one time with your pet. I have three friendly dogs and one friendly cat that love to meet new friends. I do crate our dogs when no one is home which is very rare and will only be for a couple of hours typically. I have a large back yard but we do not let the animals run loose, they are tethered/leashed when outside. I will be watching and/or walking with them at all times when outside. If I am pet sitting animals in a client’s home I will care for the animal however the client directs me to and in the safest and loving way as possible.
About: My name is Allanna, and I've been dogsitting for about two years now! I recently moved back to Shelby, I actually grew up in the area, so I'm very comfortable and familiar with it! I love all pets - dogs, cats, and even the not so furry ones like reptiles (yes, I'll even love your pet spider if you have one ;]) I also LOVE cleaning, so I'm great for house-sitting as well! I'm a part time barista so I have a lot of free time! I've owned my fair share of dogs and cats (currently I have none, sadly) so no worries about love or experience! I love hiking, so I love long walks! Also as a bonus, I'll bake healthy, homemade treats for your pets, or even sweets for you!
About: Hi friends and family! My name is Gaby and I’m 20 years old. I devote my life to making your fur babies happy. I love all dogs and your fur baby will be treated like family ❤️. I’ll follow their routine, shower them with playtime, and send you daily updates & pics 🐾📸. Guaranteed to make you and your pup smile 😊. Dogs have always and will forever hold a special place in my heart. I was a mommy to my own 2 fur babies that I took in for a family member for 4 years. I have raised litters of puppies multiple times all by myself. Growing up I would take care of my friend’s fur babies at no cost because it meant I would get free cuddles and a best friend all in one. I’m a full time pet caregiver. I’m very flexible with time since I am home 24/7. I will accommodate my time to match your pets needs. Follow their routine (feeding, playtime, potty breaks) Give 'em love & attention 🐾❤️ Keep their space clean & comfy Watch for any health concerns (energy levels, appetite) Update clients regularly 📸 Be very attentive, responsive, and patient. 📍DISCLAIMER 📍 ***Please make sure all pets vaccinations are up to date and treated for tics/fleas. 🚫🪳***

About: I have a 2 legged cat and I’ve had him since he was a baby. He requires a little extra care every day and it’s so worth it. Every night he lays on my lap and makes biscuits and I enjoy every minute of it. I’ve decided to pet sit full time and enjoy loving on as many animals as long as I can. I have several animals of my own, cats and dogs. What better way to make money doing what you love ❤️ I clean out my cat boxes twice a day. After they are fed in the evenings I play with my cats for a while. I put my dogs outside in my fenced in yard to go potty and then I play ball with them. My doodles favorite thing to do! Then I bring them in the house to eat and cuddle on the couch.

Just looking to help someone in my spare time is all. I had 2 dogs but one of them unfortunately recently passed. We love and spend time with our big guy. He’s my kids best friend.
“Brooke did an amazing job! It was our first time using this application and wanted to find someone who our pups liked in the event of being long periods of time or going on vacation. The pups loved her (they’re a tough crowd) and she did wonderfully engaging with them so that they would get excited for their walk. Very grateful to have found her!”

About: I live in a I don’t just watch pets, I get to know them. From learning their quirky habits to keeping their routines steady, I treat every furry guest like my own. I focus on creating a calm, cozy, and genuinely loving environment, so your pet feels safe, understood, and totally at ease. With consistent communication, personalised care, and a whole lot of heart, I make sure your pet’s stay isn’t just stress-free—it’s something they actually enjoy. Pet care is naturally set into my daily and weekly routine. I schedule my day around feeding times, walks, play time, and check-ins to ensure every pet gets consistent care. Mornings and evenings are dedicated to exercise, enrichment, and cuddles, while afternoons include potty breaks, supervision, and rest time. My schedule is flexible and intentionally designed so I can give every animal the attention, and time they deserve. When pets stay in my home, I create a safe, supervised, and comforting environment set to their needs. I maintain clean spaces, provide cozy rest areas, and offer play time. I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medications, and preferred activities, so their stay feels familiar and stress-free. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my goal is to keep their routine uninterrupted. I handle feeding, walks, bathroom breaks, medication, playtime, and any specific instructions exactly as provided. I also respect the home environment by keeping everything tidy and secure. Whether in my home or yours, I focus on communication, safety, and reliable, compassionate care that helps pets feel calm, comfortable, and understood.
