“Angie did a wonderful job with our cats! Great with communication and making sure our cats were loved and taken care of. Will definitely book again whenever we go on our next trip!”

“Danielle is super professional and really takes good care of my cats. She communicates with me really well and lets me know how they are doing every day. Definitely will be my first choice in the future! My cats really liked her a LOT!”

“Fantastic! Thank you Julie for taking such good care of Rocco while we were out of town for a few days. I really enjoyed all the pictures you sent. He looked so relaxed and happy. Thank you!”

“Both of my cats enjoyed Mackayla’s visits. One has always been the one who hides but by the third visit he came out from hiding and allowed her to pet him and play with him! Mackayla is thoughtful and pays attention to your home! BRAVA!!”
“Prompt, responsable, and most importantly, kitty approved! My shy girls hung around for a peek and even let Megan grab a pic. We would highly recommend Megan and will definitely ask her to pet sit for us again.”

About: Hello Friends! I have 20 years of experience with dog sitting, I’ve had the fortunate opportunity to grow up with dogs in during my childhood and more. Some birds, and hamsters but mostly doggies. I have a fur baby named Milo who is 8 years old still full of energy but likes more slow days most of the time. I have trained both of them myself crate, potty , obedience, etc. My crew doesn’t stop there I have some other adopted fur babies from friends that I get to watch here and there when their main parents are out of town. I love them just the same as mine. I look forward to watch as many fur babies as I can . :) I am currently a graduate student my internship is in the most morning throughout the week but the schedule is pretty flexible after 2pm everyday. I reside in a safe environment. I previously worked at my leasing office before starting graduate school, I take pride in how safe and pet friendly my community is. I do have a pup in my home that can keep your pet comfortable. I am attentive and productive with any pet that is in my care , consistently trying to make any pet comfortable when they are in my care .

About: I’m new to professional pet sitting, but I’ve been around dogs my entire life—I’ve had a dog since I was 3 years old. I grew up with German Shepherds and have also spent a lot of time caring for smaller breeds like Yorkies, Shih Tzus, Chihuahuas, and Dachshunds through family. I have a genuine love for dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I would truly enjoy the opportunity to care for your furry family member while you’re away. I’m a full-time graduate student during the day and work part-time a few days during the week, which means my afternoons are typically free. This gives me plenty of time to spend quality time with your furry companion and get to know their personality, needs, and routine while you’re away. In your home, I will provide attentive and personalized care to keep your pet comfortable and maintain their normal routine. I can assist with feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, and lots of affection, as well as administering basic medications if needed. I’ll also keep your home tidy, follow any specific instructions you provide, and send updates so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is in good hands while you’re away.

About: I’ve owned dogs since I was a little girl playing in the dirt on a country farm. I’ve been around animals in some capacity all my life. I’ve owned many different breeds of dogs throughout my life, from small to large. I currently have one little Yorkiepoo, Ella, who is most definitely a lap dog, always searching for a good tummy rub, and who is missing her sweet brother, Odie, a dachshund mix who recently crossed the rainbow bridge. We miss our sweet boy so much. I am also the very proud grandma to two sweet grandpups whom I dog-sit regularly. Meadow Maui, a sweet, shy Golden Pyrenees, and Fawn Faye, a rambunctious Rough Collie, have me wrapped around their paws. They love visiting Grandma’s house because they know it’s full of treats, belly rubs, snuggles, and nonstop spoiling. 🐾 I am currently a teacher who will be home for the summer beginning June 13th, and I’m looking for some extra grandpups to spoil during the summer months. I am available daily for drop-ins, cuddles, and dog walks. I can also dog-sit overnight in your home. Depending on the type of dog and whether they do well with other dogs, I occasionally offer dog sitting in my home as well. As a teacher, I am a rule follower, pay close attention to detail, and strive to make your pups fall in love with their temporary grandma. I’m used to being up super early and will make sure your pups get the love, attention, and care they need while you’re away. My daughter is in the vet tech industry and is always a phone call away to answer any questions I may have about basic dog care needs.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 15 years old. I don’t just walk dogs- I turn every stroll into their favorite part of the day! I’m currently working full time during the week, so I am looking for something with flexible hours on weekends that allows me to make some extra money. I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality—whether that means fetch in the backyard, a quiet snuggle on the couch, or just someone to keep them company. I create a safe, loving environment where pets feel relaxed and engaged. I’ll send lots of photos and updates so you can enjoy your time away without worry!
About: Dogs have been a central part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve navigated everything from the 'puppy phase' to the delicate needs of senior dogs, including hands-on medical care like shots and daily meds. These days, I spend my time with Alfie, my 3-year-old Golden Retriever. I’ve raised him since he was a puppy, training him myself and enjoying our daily routine of fetch and lounging. I’ve never met a dog I didn't like, and I’m just as comfortable handling a tiny Terrier as I am a powerful Cane Corso! I am a full time teacher with availability from 3pm - 7pm on weekdays and all day/evening on weekends. Once summer break comes, I will have more availability during the weekdays. As a professional educator, I bring a high level of safety, accountability, and care to my students and pets. I treat every dog as if they were my own, with a focus on security and routine. I’m happy to let your pups out for some fresh air in a fenced yard or take them on leashed walks to burn off some energy.
“Holly has been fantastic with my 9 week old GSD puppy. She communicates promptly before and after her visit. She is a weekly visitor and I know that Dakota is in good hands.”

About: If you need caring, compassionate, reliable, loving service for your furry sweethearts I am available to make them the center of attention. With me they get a bit of a holiday themselves. My work takes me oceanside for extended periods: so when I’m available to house/pet sit for you, I am devoted to all their needs. Presently I am auntie to several cats and dogs that for more than a decade I have been house/pet sitting. I have also cared for horses, goats, chickens, geese and peacocks. I love learning animal’s individual personalities and ingratiating myself in to their familial pack. In my life I have owned a German Shepherd, a Malinois and a Husky as well as numerous cats. I grew up walking the dog, so I prefer to exercise the canines regularly. Playtime for everyone will include some brushing. I have no problems giving oral medications or injections. And I have cared for sick animals of my own as well as others. My entry in to your home will be with complete respect, integrity and detailed consideration. My references will tell you how I am attentive not only to your pets but your home: be it garden or plant care, and most especially having your home be as if you had never left upon your return.
“Michele did an awesome job with our senior dog Belle! We never worried how Belle was doing while we were away as Michele sent photos and updates throughout her visits. Belle was happy and well taken care of which is such a relief when leaving your pets! Michele was also very prepared and attentive even during the meet and greet.”

About: Having grown up in a home that was always filled with animals, I've essentially been a lifelong pet caregiver! As a current pet parent to my own dog and cat, I understand the joys and responsibilities of pet ownership firsthand. I'm comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and ages, from little puppies to senior sweethearts. Beyond everyday cuddles and care, I also have experience working with reactive, behaviorally challenged, and hyperactive dogs, and I'm comfortable providing the extra patience and understanding they may need. Although my schedule can sometimes depend week to week, I’m am currently working part time so most of my days and night during the week are free for your furry companions!! Whether caring for your beloved pets in my home or visiting them in yours, my approach is always centered on their individual needs, safety, and happiness. In Your Home: For drop-in visits and house sitting, I prioritize maintaining your pet's routine and ensuring they feel secure and loved in their familiar environment. This includes: -Following their established feeding schedule: Ensuring they receive the correct amount and type of food at their usual times. -Providing fresh water at all times. -Administering any necessary medications according to your detailed instructions. -Taking them out for potty breaks as frequently as they need, and cleaning up after them meticulously. -Engaging them in playtime and providing enrichment tailored to their personality and energy levels. This could include walks, fetch, indoor games, puzzle toys, or simply cuddles and companionship. -Paying close attention to their body language and behavior, noting any signs of stress, illness, or discomfort, and communicating these observations to you promptly. -Maintaining the cleanliness of their immediate environment, such as scooping litter boxes or spot-cleaning any accidents. -Sending you regular updates, photos, and videos so you can see how your furry friend is doing and have peace of mind. I am attentive to their unique personalities and any special requirements they may have, ensuring they receive the best possible care in a safe, loving, and responsible manner.
“Matt provided an abundant amount of attention to our Maxie. He comunícate with us on every visit and our hearts were touched with all the happiness. We had no worries and we’re able to enjoy our family vacation. Thank you Matt for loving Max as much as we do.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 12. Helping out neighbors, friends and family with daily walks, feedings, baths and more. From puppies to senior dogs, they’ve all enjoyed my company, as much as I’ve enjoyed theirs! I have a lot of furry friends that I love, and can’t wait to meet more!! I’m available at least 3-4x throughout the week. I’m super flexible and also willing to make additional arrangements if needed. Services will include specific days/times i’m available. I live in an apartment complex with a nice bark park, a super-friendly senior dog who loves company, and plenty of room to crate if needed. (Side note: All pets are required to be fully immunized & actively taking flea/tick prevention).
About: I grew up with dogs, specifically English bulldogs and golden retrievers, and love the companionship furry friends provide to families. My kids and I walk neighbor’s dogs often and because we currently do not have a pup of our own, we love getting some dog cuddles in where we can! I am available during the day on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and am also available most weekends. My schedule allows flexibility and I am able to be home throughout the week. I live in a home with an unfenced backyard and lots of green space in the neighborhood. If your dog comes to our home, he/she would get plenty of attention as we don’t have any other pets at this time. I am very thorough at following directions and schedules.
About: I grew up with dogs big and small! I’ve handled elderly dogs that needed diapers and help walking, given medication to dogs who dont want them, and taught boundaries and basic commands to a dog who was untrained. Whatever your furry friend needs, I’ve got you covered! I’m currently free almost every single day! Im a home body who was laid off recently so this is my current job! I do not have any other permanent plans during the week and can be free when needed! I prefer to work in the client’s home as that is the pet’s safe space. I can adapt to any life style a pet requires of me. Some prefer 2-3 walks a day. Some cannot walk a lot and need to be helped. I understand every pet is different and with that comes different types of care for the pet.
