“Where to begin, there are no words! I am so grateful to Jimena for the love and compassion she gave our boys which she extended to our family, while looking after them. The situation with our boys was very challenging and she went above and beyond the call of "Rover duty". Jimena truly has a gift and a love for animals that shines through. Thank you for everything. Your are amazing!”

About: I have volunteered at a vet clinic, as well as volunteering at an animal rescue group. Recently adopted my very own feral cats Max and Mickey. I do 3 overnight shifts a week, so can spend all day with your animals making sure that they are having lots of walks, cuddles and play time. I only pet sit in clients home, due to apartment regulations as well as I have two cats. I always do a meet and greet with each client to discuss the pet’s needs and the best ways to take care of them.

“Delightful with the cats! They really enjoyed her visits and Samantha took great care with them. I highly recommend and would book her in the future. Grateful she was available with really short notice!”

About: Growing up surrounded by cats, dogs, bunnies, hamsters, hedgehogs, and even lizards, I’ve always been a true animal lover. Coming from a family that adores pets, it was only natural for me to welcome my own four-year-old husky pup into my life. Over the years, these experiences have deepened my understanding of different temperaments, needs, and capabilities—whether it’s administering medication, providing special care, or simply giving your furry (or scaly!) friend the love and attention they deserve. Rest assured, I’ll treat your pet as if they were my own. I'm a self employed artist new to the area and am in the process of building a client base. In the meantime I have lots of time to help you and your pets in the area. I have a small fenced in outdoor space, it's not a grass yard or very large but I like to take my dog to a dog park once every two days to run for an hour or two. If we don't go to the park we have two half hour to an hour walks through local trails. I have a 4 year old husky so I'm busy making sure he gets pooped out so your pup will have lots of company on our journeys if they stay with us. We do seperate rooms for feeding and have extra dog beds so no need to bring one. If you crate train you are welcome to bring your crate.

“Moira was absolutely fantastic! Our cat (who can be a bit shy with new people) was comfortable with Moira from the very beginning. She took great care of him and sent us very detailed updates from each drop-in. We will definitely trust Moira to care for our cat again and recommend her without reservation.”

“Kira treated my puppy as if he was her own. During the meet and greet, my puppy was excited and happy to meet her. I was very much at ease with her looking after Tofu. I couldn't be happier with how my puppy was taken cared of. I will definitely rebook again. Thank you Kira”

“What an amazing experience! I was super nervous to leave Sitka for such a long trip. My worries were instantly dismissed when I met barb . Sitka can be a grouchy lil lady and barb handled it with such grace! I loved all the photos that got sent each day!”

About: I love dogs! I grew up with a big dog and a cat. I now have a cat with a ton of personality, but miss being around a dog! I am a very calm and patient person and would love to get to know your beloved pets. I am available to do early morning, evening and weekend services. I work for a beverage company and drive all over the island during the weekdays and have some flexibility with my start time. Let me know what you are looking for and I’ll see what I can do! I can cater to each pets needs or depending on what you want. I can take them for walks, crate them for resting, feed them, bathe them, brush them, and play with them.

“Kira was great with my timid dog! She was able to help me out on short notice and gave me a nice update on how my dog was doing. Thanks Kira! We appreciate you.”

About: I have had a dog or taken care of dogs since I was a little girl. Family, neighbours and friends have all relied on me to help take care of their pets for many years. I am a huge animal lover and a health care worker and will always provide the best and safest care for your pup. We love to play in the yard or go for walks, and have lots of snuggles on the couch :) I currently work part time so have lots of time available to spend with your dog! My flexible schedule allows me to board your pet overnight any day of the week, or drop in for visits/walks. I have a fenced back yard and two small dogs to keep your fur baby company! Your dog is welcome to treat our home as their own and I will give them lots of love and be devoted to their happiness and well being while you are away.

About: As a passionate animal lover, I have extensive experience caring for all types of pets including cats, dogs, and even farm animals. Your fur baby will enjoy plenty of exercise as we love hiking, running, and playing! I am dedicated to keeping your doggo happy, active, and so loved while you are away so you can trust your baby will be in great hands 💕 Caring for pets is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine. I understand that pets need routine and structure, and I ensure that they are well-cared for while their owners are away. I make sure to feed them on the schedule they are accustomed to, provide them with plenty of water, and give them regular exercise and playtime to keep them physically and mentally healthy. I also prioritize daily check-ins to track any potential signs of illness or discomfort and provide them with any needed attention. As a professional pet sitter, I maintain clear communication with pet owners, keeping them regularly informed about their pet's well-being through updates and photos. I make sure to adjust my schedule as necessary based on the needs of the pets in my care to provide them with the best possible care. When I take on the responsibility of a pet, I make sure they are given ample time, attention, and care, just like they are one of my own. I offer both in-home pet sitting services as well as caring for pets in my own home. Regardless of location, I provide a comfortable and nurturing environment where pets feel safe and secure. In my home, I have a designated space for pets that is cozy and stress-free, with ample space for exploring and playing. When caring for pets in my client's home, I make sure to familiarize myself with the pet's daily routine to ensure minimal disruption to their lives. I follow any specific instructions provided by the pet owner regarding feeding, medication, and exercise requirements, and provide additional playtime and attention to ensure that the pets feel loved and happy. I also ensure that their living space is clean, orderly, and hygienic, with fresh water and food available at all times. I keep spaces free from potential safety hazards, including cords, small objects, and any toxic substances. I am always considerate of any behavioral or medical needs that a pet may have, and can offer extra care and support if required. Overall, I prioritize the comfort, happiness, and safety of pets in my care, and work hard to provide them with the same love and attention that they receive from their owners.

“We are so thankful that you took care of our beloved fur child! We felt he was very well taken care of, would recommend Anna and will be using her caring services often!”
