About: Im a veterinary technician with hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, from energetic puppies to seniors and pets with medical needs. What sets me apart is my medical background—I’m comfortable administering medications, monitoring for health or behavior changes, and providing attentive, knowledgeable care. I prioritize safe handling, routine, and low-stress care, and I tailor my approach to each pet’s individual needs so they feel comfortable and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I plan my schedule around feeding times, walks, medication schedules, and check-ins to make sure each pet gets consistent, reliable care. I’m used to following specific instructions and routines from my work as a veterinary technician, and I prioritize punctuality, communication, and flexibility to meet each pet’s needs throughout the day and week. client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I follow all feeding, walking, litter box, and medication instructions carefully, and I take time to monitor behavior and overall health. With my background as a veterinary technician, I’m attentive to signs of stress or illness and prioritize safe handling and low-stress care. I provide plenty of enrichment, attention, and comfort, and I keep owners updated so they feel confident their pet is in good hands.

Saundra was very quick to respond to my very last minute request and it was greatly appreciated. She was thorough and left us observations on what she saw about Ruby every day, which made me feel good about her trustworthiness. She also was nice enough to come over to get the key from us before our vacation and drop it off afterwards. Recommend!

About: As a proud dog mom and dedicated pet sitter, I know how much your pets mean to you. They are a part of the family, and I believe they deserve to feel loved and secure when you’re away. I'm happy to follow any request you may have from taking them on walks, snuggling on the couch, or provide special needs. I have years of experience and a true heart for all animals. I provide the attention your pets need to stay happy and healthy. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your pets are in caring and responsible hands. I'm happy to provide as many updates as you need by sending photos and videos each day. I have total control of my work schedule each week. So, I will be able to take off work to focus and stay with your pets. In my previous experience while dog walking and pet sitting, I always follow the requests of my clients. I'm happy to take their pets on long walks, go to the dog park, or simply stay home with them to give them bathroom breaks. I also clean out the litter box for cats however many times my clients have requested. I also make sure to tidy up and pick up toys around the house and take the trash out before you come home.

About: Hey there! Im on par with crazy dog lady at this point❤️ I'm dedicated to taking care of your pet(s) and making sure that they have everything they need and are safe. I have four of my own and I would adopt more if my husband would win the lottery and buy us a dog farm lol. I do not mix my dogs with your pets to ensure safety of all puppers! I will care for your pet(s) just like I would any of mine. I don't have children, I have fur babies :-) My house has a large fenced backyard with trees and is just like being in the woods. I will follow the instructions you leave for me, feed them at the times that you request, and dispense any medication as instructed. I am great with communication and will absolutely send you pictures and updates throughout the day because Id want them as well! I work from home and my schedule is very flexible, so I will be able to check on the babies all day and play as needed. If I am coming to your home overnight, I will need access to wifi for work, that is mandatory. I would love to take care of and play with your furbabies; they’re family too. I have a fenced in backyard, but I can also leash walk your pets as needed. We also have a great nature trail within 5 minutes of my home for higher energy dogs.

I hired Paige to care for my cat while I was away for a few days and I couldn't be happier with the experience. She was incredibly friendly, communicated clearly and consistently, and followed all instructions perfectly. My cat was well cared for and happy when I returned. I would absolutely recommend Paige to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter!

I can't say enough good stuff about Cheyenne! You should know that I have never trusted many people with my animals, but Cheyenne earned my trust and kept it. Anyone who knows me knows what a huge compliment that is. After another sitter flaked out on us, she came to the rescue at the very last minute. She is always on time, communicates well, kind, caring, and went way beyond to make sure not just the animals were happy... but us too. We put extra on her and she willingly went even further. I hope she is still doing this when we go on our next trip! Again, she is great. Great customer service, very professional, and great with animals. :) Cheyenne, I'm sorry I didn't share the YouTube videos for the parrots sooner. If I had known it would make yall instant friends, I would have. Lol

About: I have had all kinds of different pets growing up. There is nothing better than the puppy stage. Seeing their growth is always so exciting. From English bulldogs to cats, I would enjoy the opportunity to love your babies while you’re away! I am currently just a student and while in summer pet care should be no problem! From playing, to potty breaks, even cuddles. I would love to fit your pet into my routine. While in my home, I will offer them walks around Lee University. I do not have a fenced in yard, however I am open to dog parks if the client is as well. In the clients home I will try to maintain the amount of play and attention the animal is used to receiving. Play time outside or inside couch cuddles.

Katherine, Cared for our cat exceptionally well. She went above and beyond with keeping her fed and watered (our sassafras cat-who runs the house) is very picky). She updated us after every visit, I would recommend her and will absolutely rebook with Katherine!
