“Rhonda is amazing! She is always timely, respectful and gives wonderfully detailed reports on how their walk / visit went. I would recommend her to anyone.”

About: I have always had pets in my house. I love being able to help people with taking care of their furry friends. For as long as I can remember I have been helping my family with their pets and I love to be able to help keep their animals happy, healthy, safe, and comfortable. I am currently not working or in school over the summer. In late August I will be back in class on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I am available to help with pets any day of the week until I begin classes again. I would love to be able to help with taking care of pets while others may not be able to. When I have previously helped with family and friends pets I have always made sure to have some kind of instructional set up of what they would like to be done if I am watching the animal in their house to make sure that I am covering what the owner would typically do. I try to make sure to keep up with the routine that has been set up for the animal already and make sure that they feel comfortable with me as well as making sure they are feeling safe and cared for.
“Maria is great! She's punctual and Aimee or doodle loves going on walks with her.”
About: Hello all! I am a huge animal lover and have been an avid volunteer at various shelters for many years. I have been a trusted sitter for many friends and family members, and have pets of my own who are very much part of my family. I have a great deal of experience with many different breeds, some positive reinforcement training experience, and some basic first aid/troubleshooting experience. I will always treat any animal within my care as my own, and take my responsibility of being trusted with someone's family member incredibly seriously. I work from home on a varied, part-time schedule. I plan to use the late morning/early afternoon hours when I am typically free to do walks and/or check-ins and can do overnights as needed when my schedule allows. Making sure there is not "people food" easily accessible to the pet when that's a concern, being mindful of small parts they may try to eat and choke on etc. Making sure the animal has enrichment activities to make it less likely they will chew on or destroy anything they aren't supposed to. Paying attention to notes on pet profiles, making myself aware of any concerns with cats/dogs/kids/food aggression etc. Being sure to lock & double check doors before bed or when leaving the property.

About: Hi there, I'm Halley. I've been taking care of pets for over 15 years! I've had dogs and cats my whole life, so I'm very attuned to the different needs and wants, and I understand that even different dog breeds have specific needs that need to be met (working dogs, am I right?). I've taken care of dogs of all ages and sizes, and I currently have a senior Great Dane with seizures at home. I'm no stranger to special needs pets or medication time. I also have 3 cats of various ages, and I've administered meds to all 3 of them on occasion. I can do all the care you need: brushing, ear cleaning, tooth brushing, nail clipping, medications, walks, you name it. I am looking to make this my full-time job, so I've got plenty of time for your pets! I have lots of time to make sure that every animal is taken care of properly and to the pet parent's specifications and expectations. Tell me about your routines, and I'll try to stick to it as much as possible to avoid any undue stress on your fur baby. I know it's hard to let someone in to care for your pets, so I want to give them their routine to keep them happy and safe.
“Samantha is amazing, she never failed to send pictures and get plenty of exercise with my insanely hyper dog, he just loved her. In February of this year I got into a horrible accident and didn’t wake up for two days, I lived alone and my dog didn’t have anyone, I woke up in the ICU and Samantha was the first one I got a hold of knowing she had a key. She showed and saved my dogs life, my keys were lost in the accident and I had no way to get home. She safely got the key to my family and Obsidian is safe and healthy with me traveling across the United States and happier then ever. I couldn’t thank her enough for being that reliable. I don’t know what I would ever do without my boy.”
“My dog is always happy to see Kerri. He comes back tired. Thanks!”
About: I’ve have taken care of dogs for over 20 years. I specialize in the care of small dogs and those with special needs.

I am present and available to meet your dogs needs. The longest they would have to wait to go outside is two hours. I have a fully fenced in backyard and a walkable neighborhood!

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds. From growing up with cats, dogs, turtles, birds, and even a bunny, to being the go-to sitter for friends, family, and neighbors, caring for animals has always been second nature to me. Whether it’s a bouncy puppy, a shy senior cat, or a pet with special routines, I adapt easily and treat every animal like family. I’ve helped nurse a newborn lamb back to health while abroad, bathed muddy dogs after playtime, and made sure pets get all the love and attention they need while their humans are away. Whether your pet needs a calm companion or a playful buddy, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved every step of the way. Hope to see you soon! My schedule is wide open for drop-ins, walks, house sitting, and overnight stays. Pet sitting is my full-time job so I have plenty of time to give your pets consistent care and companionship while you’re away. I take pride in being dependable, tidy, and respectful. I follow all routines closely and give regular updates so you always feel connected. I’m very active and love going on long walks with dogs or playing in the yard to help them burn energy in a fun, safe way. Whether your pet needs quiet companionship or a playful buddy, I adapt easily.

“Elizabeth has been helping with my pets for years. She would feed and take my dog for walks when I worked overtime. Now she helps with my cat Luna when I am out of town. Luna only needs her food filled once a day but Elizabeth makes sure to check in on her frequently so she doesn't feel lonely. She spends extra time playing with her and has even stayed at the house until Luna comes out of hiding to make sure she was ok. Now that Luna is familiar with Elizabeth she is happy to see her and will cuddle up in her lap. Elizabeth is kind, caring, respectful and responsible. I have never been disappointed in the care she has given my pets.”

6. Pamela C.
“Don’t look any further for a more loving pet sitter. Pamela has watched our Sailor several times (many overnight stays) and to our joy, she treats him as though he were her own pet. Whenever we drop Sailor off, he is excited to see her which is very comforting. Our dog Sailor has a few “needy” quirks that Pamela understood from the very first visit. I have seen her with other animals and she treats them all with the love and patience you would want for your pet. Trust me, you and your pet will love her! ❤️”

“Liz cares for my pets with an impressive level of detail. She’s able to identify my three boys by their barks. Each dog has specific feeding instructions which Liz has followed and helped me improve.

Due to this above and beyond effort, Liz will be my dog sitter forever!”

12. Halley H.
“Halley is the best! She has house, plant, and pet-sat for us many times. I have a leopard gecko that requires a little bit of strange and involved care (fussing with heating pads, lights, feeding live bait, etc.) and she does it all with ease. I really appreciated the photo updates and quick responses whenever I asked about my baby. I would (and have) recommended her to anyone!”

17. Akala W.
“I worked with Akala ("Kal") at a dog day care with an emphasis on dog behavior and psychological well-being and we had the privilege of working closely with a dog trainer. Kal is a phenomenal employee and coworker and excellent care-giver to all the dogs. She went above and beyond for each of the fur babies and knew each of their personalities and how to set them up for success. Also, Kal came up with the cutest nicknames for all the dogs, hands-down. She has a gift. I would trust her with my own fur babies. An all around wonderful, caring individual.”
