About: i will spend time with the pet and bond with them. and i can usually tell what the cat would need or want to do. i also love to take care of pets. each pet has a unique personality and it’s really fun to see how certain pets will react to the same situations or objects. i’m currently unemployed, so i will have all of the time in the world besides on weekends to take care of your sweet sweet pets! :) i will use my intuition and the environment the pet is in to sense how they’re feeling. then i will keep them company if they tend to get anxious. if they’re in the mood to play, i’ll play with them. I pay attention to the needs and wants of the pet and do my best to keep them happy.
About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life, from dogs and cats to bunnies, guinea pigs, chickens, and even fish. Alongside my personal experience, I worked at Joybound for a year, where I gained hands-on training in safe, reliable pet care. I’m especially comfortable with playful and active dogs who need plenty of exercise, enrichment, and attention. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and love their dogs, knowing I’ll always treat them like my own. Whether it’s a fun walk, playtime, or keeping them on routine, I make sure every dog feels happy, cared for, and safe. As a full-time student, I balance my studies with my love for animals, making pet care a natural part of my daily routine. I set aside time each day for walks, play, feedings, and companionship to ensure pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for In my own home, I maintain a calm, pet-friendly environment, and when caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their instructions closely so pets remain comfortable in their familiar surroundings. My priority is always safety, trust, and creating a positive environment for every pet I care for.
About: I have 2 young male standard poodles who are father and son. They would like to meet new friends. I have experience fostering different breeds. Welcome to my home. I am working from home. I have time to accommodate most weekdays and weekends. Feel free to text me and schedule the meet up and your drop off. I have a big fenced yard. I can babysit your dogs at my place or provide overnight boarding if needed. Dogs need to be potty trained and comfortable sleeping in a new environment if not crated. I allow my dogs on bed. I don’t mind sharing my bed with well behaved and quite dogs during the night.
“Sumaira took such good care of my cat, tortoise, and chicken. She sent great pictures and they all looked happy. Appreciated her attention to detail and letting me know a light had burned out. Timely daily feeding and visits! Will definitely ask Sumaira to take care of my zoo again!”

About: Lifelong pet owner and animal lover with 9 years of experience as pet sitter and dog walker. Provide safe, nurturing care for a wide range of animals, including dogs, cats, fish, birds, and small mammals, such as rabbits and hamsters. Friendly and trustworthy, putting pets and their people at ease with reliable, conscientious care. I am a part-time teacher, I have plenty of free time to dedicate love to your pups! Available weekends and weekdays after 3, I can always make accommodations if needed. I am a flexible person, willing to make accommodations, also if necessary I have my house which is huge with a very large and safe yard, motion cameras and always present for any need or attention that the pups require!
About: I have 2 dogs and 2 cats of my own at home. One was abused and all are from a rescue. You start to learn the dogs who might have some issues because of being abused are more likely to be scared at first and I've learned how to interact with them still. My puppy is like that because she was abused before we got her. I use to have a dog who became handicap and lost the use of her back legs, so I understand how older dogs may feel. My 13 year old dog is starting to lose his hearing so I know you can't be aggravated when they don't hear you right away! I am hoping to be able to meet soon!
“Jess was very attentive to our two adult cats and respectful to our care instructions. She provided consistent updates while we were away. We would gladly ask her to take care of our cats again!”

About: I want to make sure your pet(s) are as comfortable as possible while you are away through following their routines and gaining their trust (if needed!). I also know that I personally worry about my pets while I am away so I make sure to communicate with you and accommodate your requests 🥰🐾 If your pet is shy or easily excited that is not a problem for me. If you are working on any training with your pup I am comfortable following your training plan when I am with them. I have experience with puppies and senior dogs as I have had both. High drive or excitable dogs are not a problem for me and I also can take care of larger dogs! I am currently unemployed so I am able to stay at your house for extended hours in the day. I have dogs of my own at home that I may need to pop out for an hour or 2 to take care of. I do not take pets into my home (boarding). I will be sure that your pet is getting the care I would expect for my own. Clean water and food bowls and all of the snuggles. I have experience with reactivity when going on walks because of my own pup and have learned how to manage these situations calmly while keeping your pet safe.
“Alyssa was amazing! I had my sitter for thanksgiving cancel last minute and when I reached out to Alyssa on short notice she was still super willing to watch Mac. She was super kind and communicative through the stay and when my return flight cancelled she was flexible and let him stay an additional night. Great experience!”

“Elaine is a special person. She just loves animals and she treated my 3 cats just as if there were her own! I have 1 cat that is quite shy around strangers and he came out for her day 1. I have another cat that was feral during his first 9 months of life and he was hiding but actually came out for her on day 4 which was amazing!! He has not done that for any of my family members! She is knowledgeable and wanting to always learn more. She is good about literally spending time playing with my cats as well! I would definitely recommend her and I will use her again!”
About: What I've learned in my ten years watching animals is that, big or small, all pets need a little extra looking after when their people are away. From allergy medicine to daily long walks and a whole lot of fetch I've found that every dog is unique in their needs. I look forward to getting to know your furry friend or friends and helping them maintain a sense of comfort and fun while their family is away! My main gig is watching animals and houses. I'm happy to work any time I don't have other clients booked. Thank you for your consideration. Keeping animals in their familiar routine is my main focus. Whatever their usual daily schedule looks like (feeding times, walks, bedtime, etc) is what I try to recreate. I have experience giving medication if needed and am happy and able to provide walks as far as your pet enjoys.
About: I’ve been caring for pets since childhood, from energetic puppies to senior dogs and cats. Friends, family, and neighbors trust me to walk, feed, bathe, and give their pets plenty of love. I’m patient, reliable, and treat every animal as if they were my own. I currently work full time however my schedule is flexible. I am mainly available over the weekends, later in the day or early in the morning I keep my cat inside and make sure items are put away. I keep my cats litter clean and use safe products in the home
About: I’ve been working with dogs since I was 16, starting out at a doggy daycare and later at PetSmart, where I learned the ins and outs of caring for pups of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. When I’m not walking or sitting dogs, I’m hanging out with my roommates’ two cats (who keep me on my toes) — so yes, I’m a fan of all furry friends. With years of hands-on experience and a genuine love for animals, I make sure every pet I care for feels safe, happy, and loved while their humans are away. Right now, I’m looking for a new job, but if my pet care business picks up, I’d love to make working with animals my main focus instead of a typical 9–5. Caring for pets fits naturally into my day — whether it’s early morning walks, midday drop-ins, or evening playtime, it’s the part of my routine I look forward to most. Since my roomies have cats, I will only be able to come to your house to sit. I always make sure I memorize their routine and keep a close eye on their behavior to see if they need anything.
