Their special needs, with Charlie being blind, Lilly bring deaf, and everyone being geriatric means a lot when they are so loved and able to stay comfortable in their home. Thank you, Bekah!”

About: I have taken care of animals since I was 7 years old and professionally since I was 18 years old. I love ALL animals. I have experience with the following animals: Bearded Dragons, Cats, Dogs, Ferrets, Rabbits, Fish, Hamsters, and Birds. I know how to administer shots and give medications orally to Cats, Dogs, and Ferrets. I believe that pets aren't pets - they are family. I live in a house with my husband, 4 month old baby, and 2 kitties. I work a 9-5 full time job but can take breaks to help with walks, potty breaks, and feedings. I promise to give all of the love and attention your animal needs. If you have any questions or need any additional information, please reach out to me. Thank you! I have a full-time job however, I can take breaks throughout the day to attend to your animal's needs (walks, potty breaks, food, etc.). I have full availability on the weekends. I have 2 cats who get along with other animals. They roam around the house and tend to do their own thing. Staying in client homes, I will only use items/rooms that I am told can be used. I ALWAYS clean up after myself and will do light housework if asked/needed.

“Everything went very smoothly with Victoria taking care of our 14 year old dog and 4 year old cat. The request was made just days before we had to leave town for a family situation. Victoria was prompt responding to my initial request. She arrived promptly for a meet and greet, our dog loved her and our cat actually came out of hiding the second day and hung out with her! Victoria immediately put our minds to rest about using a new pet sitter so last minute. She kept us updated on how the kids were doing while we were away and left our house looking perfect when we arrived home. We will definitely contact her when we travel again.”

Caral M.

“Caitlin helped us out last minute and was extremely accommodating to our senior dog with anxiety. She shared pictures and her response times were great. We will definitely use her again in the future!”

Kira W.

“Absolutely fantastic and reliable. Michael is reliable and loving. We can finally enjoy vacation knowing our cat is completely taken care of.”

Stephanie G.

“Lily and Philip are the best. We are currently going through a challenging period, and they are always ready to help when we need them. They not only cared for our dogs but kept our outdoor plants alive in this heat!”

About: Hello! My name is Alyssa and I am a 20 year old college student remotely studying Psychology and Criminal Justice. I’ve had dogs and a cat since I was young and was always held accountable to take care of them! I took a Veterinary Science class in High School and dealt with animals on a daily during this course (Bunnies and Puppies.) I have recently owned hamsters and fish as well that were 100% my responsibility. I’ve volunteered at animal shelters and have 4 years of paid experience with pet sitting for neighbors. Animals deserve the world and I love to make a difference in their lives even if they don’t understand it :) I am also willing to negotiate pricing based off your animals energy/need for attention/etc. Please reach out to me with any additional questions and I’d be happy to answer! I am currently a college student who is taking online courses to work on getting my degree. Other than daily assignments, I have no other daily commitments and will be available 90% of the time, other than my planned unavailability on my calendar! I have a large front and back yard with plenty of room to play. I do have an indoor/outdoor cat but she keeps to herself and is never a bother. I could easily keep her separated from your pet. If in your home, I will be sure to take all the steps you request and go above and beyond to ensure you and your animals are comfortable.

“Skylar was our first sitter through this app and we couldn’t be happier!! She met with us prior to our trip and asked great questions. She updated us daily. Most important, you can tell Skylar really loves animals. She is gentle, patient, and kind. We will definitely be reaching out for her services again!!”

About: Many members of my family have had dogs, cats, and various other types of pets for my entire life. In my own home, my parents began giving me pet care tasks to help me practice caring for animals when I was pretty young. These skills have developed significantly over the years. I am a loving and caring person and have always had a playful side. This being said, I am still able to handle stressful situations with a firm but compassionate hand. This gives me a distinct advantage when it comes to pet care. Currently I work two jobs, one full-time and one part-time. The full time job have regular hours M-F, 8am to 4pm. I would be able to do drop in visits both before work starts and after it ends. I usually work my part time job on weekends in the late morning- early afternoon. They are very flexible and as long as I get enough notice, I will be able to schedule visits then as well. I feed my cat on a regular schedule so I am able to do the same with your pet. I am also able and willing to play, bathe, or just hang out with your pets. Unfortunately I would not be able to have your pets in my apartment, as my complex does not allow unauthorized animals but I am more than willing to come to you!

About: Hi, my name is Mackenzie, and I love being outside and seeing happy dogs on walks! I grew up with a dog that I loved dearly, and enjoyed nothing more than spending time inside and outside with him! Since his passing, I have gotten a little over a year of experience petsitting and dog-walking, and am looking to expand and help more families keep their fur babies happy! Whether that be by dropping by for a walk and some tummy rubs, or hanging out while you’re on vacation, I am ready and excited to help out! I’m a high energy person who loves playing with and caring for dogs; please contact me if you think I could be a good pet for your best friend! I have also become a big cat person in my personal life! I have cats of my own and I love them very much. They both have some minor medical conditions that require prescription feeding and monitoring, so I am used to sensitive kitties who need a little extra love. I would love to help care for cats in the area, so other cat people can travel and vacation and have time away from home knowing that their furbaby is well cared for and loved in their absence! I work from home and have a lot of flexibility with my schedule, so I am available throughout the day for feeding, walking, playing, and relaxing with your pets! I am very detail oriented and can ensure that the care your pet receives from me mimics the care they receive from you, to keep your furbaby comfortable and relaxed while you're away!
