About: What sets me apart is the personal connection I build with each pet. I treat every animal like family, taking the time to understand their personality and needs. I’m experienced with both puppies and senior pets – from helping puppies learn basic commands to providing extra care and comfort for senior pets who might need medication or special attention. I’m all about making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and happy while you’re away! Pet care is a highlight of my weekends! Since I work during the week, I dedicate my weekends to giving your pets all the attention, playtime, and care they need. Whether it’s long walks, cuddles, or just keeping them company, I ensure they’re happy and comfortable while you’re away. Whether it's in my home or yours, I treat your pet like family. At my place, I make sure they have a cozy spot to relax, plenty of playtime, and love throughout the day. I follow their routine so they feel right at home. When I care for pets in your home, I stick to their schedule, give them all the attention they need, and keep you updated so you can feel at ease. My goal is always to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved.

“Gia was terrific with Darla. She did everything asked and responded quickly to questions I had before and during the house stay. Would recommend 100%.”


“Katalina did a great job taking care of my hound. Lots of long walks and plenty of playtime. She was punctual and the house was in perfect shape when I got home. Definitely recommend her :)”

About: Seasoned care for your most beloved furry friends. I am a loving pet owner whose goal is to put your mind at ease while you go about your everyday life! I work local to where I live and the average 7 to 8 hour shift. I have flexibility in my position to be with your loved ones the whole day, however the pay rate changes for this. I am available for all your needs upon request. I live in apartment on the second floor, I offer boarding for small animals with a lovely grassy knoll and walking areas. I can be available to care for your beloved a full day with no working hours upon request and a pay rate change.

About: I have been around pets since I was a child and have had my own dog for 6 years and a cat for 2.5 years now. I got my dog as a puppy, so I am more than willing to work with pets of any age. I recently finished my second masters degree and work full time in healthcare 3 days/week but can provide care before work, after work, and on my days off. Having 4 days/week off is great and allows me flexibility with my schedule. I love allowing pets to be part of the family, adventure outside often, and allow walks to be the dogs walk and not my walk.

About: I’ve had pets my whole life. At least two dogs for as long as I can remember, but currently (and for quite some time) I have four dogs and two cats. I’ve helped train my pets from puppies and cared for them as senior so I have experience in every aspect of dogs’ and cats’ lives. Ive cared for a coworker’s pets in the past and I’ve worked with horses since I was 8. Animals are my life My weekdays are open, especially once I finish school in mid May. My weekends won’t be free for some time, unfortunately. I’m happy to sit at your home with your pets if wanted, especially during the summer, and I love to take them for walks (I know many good trails) and play with them I wouldn’t want to take pets to my home as it is very full of other animals and I wouldn’t want to overwhelm mine or your pets, however I am happy to care for your pets at your home and I will do whatever needed to make your pets comfortable, especially around a new person

“We are very pleased with Taryn. Everything went smoothly. Our little doggie was very well cared for. Happy we found someone like Taryn to give us peace of mind when we go away.”


About: I’ve been caring for animals since childhood — we had a bunny, gerbils, and a parakeet when I was 9, and by age 10 I was fully responsible for feeding, watering, and cleaning up after our guinea pigs. Throughout the years, we also had dogs and cats, and I regularly helped with feeding, walking, brushing, and playtime. We also had fish growing up, which taught me attention to detail and consistency. After college, I had three turtles that were solely my responsibility — from daily feeding and tank maintenance to administering medication when needed. I also studied insects in college and worked at a wildlife refuge and nature center, where I fed the resident animals and handled them during public education programs. I was trusted to work with a variety of species, including birds of prey like owls, and I loved helping people understand how to respect and care for wildlife. These experiences have made me a calm, observant, and compassionate caregiver. Whether it’s a high-energy pup, a shy cat, or a reptile with special needs, I tailor my approach to make sure every animal feels safe, seen, and cared for. For my own safety and peace of mind, I do not take jobs involving breeds that are commonly recognized as guard dogs, such as pit bulls (including mixes) or Rottweilers. I appreciate your understanding and look forward to caring for pets that are the right match for my style of gentle and attentive care. I work full-time, so I’m not available for pet care on my workdays. However, I have Sundays, Mondays, and Tuesdays off every week, and I’m also available every other Wednesday. This gives me consistent time to focus fully on pet care, especially for overnights, drop-ins, and daytime visits. Caring for animals brings me a sense of peace and joy, and I treat it as a meaningful part of my week — not just a side task. Whether it’s preparing food, going for walks, giving meds, or just offering comfort and attention, I’m very intentional with how I show up for each pet’s needs. Whether I’m stopping by for a quick check-in, staying overnight, or going on a walk, I approach every visit with calm attention and compassion. I follow each pet’s routine carefully — including feeding, water changes, walks, litter box or yard cleanup, playtime, and any medications they may need. For drop-ins and walks, I make sure the pet gets quality time, not just a quick task. I check their mood and energy level and tailor the visit to what they need — whether that’s gentle affection, a good game of fetch, or a slow sniffy walk. During overnight house sitting, I maintain a peaceful, secure environment and stick closely to your pet’s normal routine. I also treat your home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I love sending photo and text updates so you can feel connected and reassured while you’re away.

“Genevieve took great care of Lacy and our house. She sent a lot of photos and Lacy seemed very happy. She was also available last minute and her flexibility was greatly appreciated! We would definitely recommend her to anyone.”


“Samantha was very responsive and took great care of Ruby - highly recommend!”


“Bethany is hands down your go to person for the best dog care. She went above and beyond to help our senior frenchie . She kept us up to date on everything and cared for Layla like she was one of her own. Thank you!”


About: This year I fostered 4 puppies. All of them found their furever homes including Olive who stayed with me 🥰. Prior to fostering puppies I would pet sit for friends and family I’m currently home 3 days a week so I will have time for last minute walks, pop by visits, or I can stay at your place so your fur baby is comfortable At home, I have a fenced in yard so Olive can roam freely but supervised. At your place I would care for your pup as I do mine with a watchful eye and lots of love and playfulness.

“Nichole was great with our cat & 2 dogs! 🐕 🐈 She stayed for a week of housesitting, kept us updated with photos and details and left our home clean. I highly recommend Nichole, we will definitely be using her again!”

“Jess is an exceptional dog sitter! She has cared for my large dog in both my home and apartment, and each time, she’s gone above and beyond to ensure he’s comfortable, happy, and well cared for. Jess is incredibly attentive and thoughtful—she keeps me updated with sweet messages and adorable photos, which always put my mind at ease while I’m away. She’s also capable of administering medications when needed, which has been a huge help when my pup wasn’t feeling his best. I truly wouldn’t trust anyone more than Jess to look after my furry family member!”

“We are very pleased with Taryn. Everything went smoothly. Our little doggie was very well cared for. Happy we found someone like Taryn to give us peace of mind when we go away.”


15. Veronica W.
“Veronica has always been great with animals. Ever since she was a kid, she’s taken care of all kinds — dogs, cats, turtles, birds, and even insects. She really loves them and knows how to handle them with care. She’s watched my pets before — both cats and dogs — and took amazing care of them. They were happy, well-fed, and I knew they were in good hands. After college, she even worked at Woodford Cedar Run Wildlife Refuge, where she helped care for owls, turtles, and other wildlife, which says a lot about her knowledge and how much people trust her. She’s super responsible, kind, and you can tell she truly loves animals. I’d absolutely trust her with any pet, and anyone who hires her is lucky to have her.”

“Alexa truly is one of the most caring, passionate, and animal loving people that I know. When it comes to watching/caring for pets she’s equal to none, in a league of her own. She’s watched my very anxious picky dog multiple times. I wouldn’t choose anyone except her. Highest possible recommendation.”


20. Nichole P.
