Appreciate Trina so very much and her care for Sunny, as well as my home when I need to be away. Her communication is always on point and she’s as reliable as the sun coming up each day.

About: I’ve worked as a vet assistant for the past 5 years. I currently pet sit regularly for 5+ individuals. I’ve grown up with multiple pets of my own, from fish and 10 pound doggies to my two Great Danes and a couple cows! I am currently working as needed so I have a lot of time to take care of your babies! I’m always super flexible and can almost always be there in a pinch! I will always make sure your pets are protected and safe. I will do things the exact way you want them done. Your house will be left as I found it and all happy little accidents will be cleaned up without a trace!

Had a little difficulty with figuring out the schedule at first, but that was sorted out quickly. My dog had a health issue and Steve was very helpful in managing this and very patient with our pup.

Justine watched our pups for a week and they were obviously well-cared for and loved. I was relaxed the whole time away knowing that she had them in hand. We had a small hiccup with exactly which food to feed, but it was an easy fix and I look forward to having Justine back as often as she is available. She left the house just as she found it- possibly even better.

Brendle was delightful and our 2 dogs had the best time with her. She hung out with them for 5 hours while we went to watch our son’s championship game. Brendle took them on a 2 mile hike, played ball at the park, and they were thoroughly and happily exhausted at the end of her stay. I cannot say enough nice things about Brendle! She is a gem!

About: I'm an active volunteer with a local animal shelter, where I work hands-on with dogs of many ages, sizes, temperaments, I have experience caring for shy, anxious, high-energy, and sensitive dogs, and I'm comfortable with reading canine body language, building trust, and providing calm, reliable care tailored to each dog's needs. Pet care is part of my regular routine through weekend availability when I'm off work. I plan my schedule around providing attentive, consistent care, including walks, feeding, enrichment and companionship, so each dog receives focused, unhurried attention. I care for pets by following their established routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and preferred activities. I take time to build trust, especially with shy or anxious pets, by moving at their pace and reading their body language. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and calm, attentive interaction, whether that means exercise and playtime or quiet companionship. In a client's home, I respect their space and ensure pets feel comfortable and secure in their familiar environment.

Whether your cat is playful, shy, or independent, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Regular updates, gentle care, and extra love always come free! 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my lifestyle because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and creating a calm, caring environment for them. Since I work remotely, I have the flexibility to provide consistent attention, playtime, feeding schedules, and companionship throughout the day.

When caring for dogs in their owner’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I provide feeding, fresh water, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention based on your dog’s needs and personality. I also make sure your home stays clean and respected while you’re away. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, or needs extra patience, I provide calm, dependable care to help them feel safe and comfortable in their familiar environment.

Second time booking Trina, and once again she was absolutely wonderful with my fur-babies! This time I also had a family member’s dog staying with me, and after giving Trina the profile and instructions, she handled the added responsibility flawlessly. The house was in perfect order when I returned, and all the pups were clearly happy and well cared for. One of my dogs had developed a tummy issue the week before my trip, which had me a bit anxious. I let Trina know the situation, and she had no problem adjusting her care as instructed by the vet. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing she’d update me if anything changed. While I was away, I ended up having the opportunity to stay an extra night. Trina happened to be available and kindly accommodated the last-minute request. Trina is reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring. I’ll continue booking her any time I can—highly recommend!
