“I can’t say enough great things about Gizelle! She came through for me on very short notice and even traveled from further out just to make sure Mazzi was taken care of for the weekend. That level of dedication alone meant the world to me. Not only was she incredibly dependable, but Gizelle also went above and beyond when Mazzi got into some muddy mischief. She cleaned everything up without complaint and made sure Mazzi was comfortable and happy the entire time. I especially appreciated her attention to detail, even when we were not able to respond due to being on vacation. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares and treats your pet like their own, book Gizelle. I will absolutely be using her again!”
“Shawna was great, and my cats seemed to really enjoy her company. She was thorough and a great communicator. Enjoyed seeing the pics and videos of the cats while we were gone. I definitely recommend Shawna to others and will without a doubt choose her again!”
“Alexandria was great! She was very communicative and took good care of my little babes while I was away!”

About: Patient, Loving, & Fun I have taken care of dogs, cats, rabbits, and hamsters! 🐇Leo Sasha and Levi approve of their mommy skills of taking care of them. My three rabbits I take care of now get their bedding changed weekly, get plenty of hay and occasional treats that they love. Lots of stretching and playtime outside of the cages. If your beloved pet needs more things on their to do list I am more than capable to do so. I work Sun-Thurs 12am-8am but can fit requests in if needed on those days. Friday & Saturday are open for anything! Please let me know. Pet care can be effectively woven into both daily and weekly routines, providing structure and predictability for pets while also benefiting owners. A consistent daily routine, including feeding, walks, and playtime, helps pets feel secure and reduces anxiety. Pet care at home varies depending on whether it's a pet-sitting service, in-home boarding, or a routine pet care visit. Pet-sitting involves daily walks, feeding, playtime, and administering medication as needed. In-home boarding includes overnight stays, ensuring a safe and comfortable environment with regular exercise and socialization. Routine pet care visits focus on specific needs like grooming, medication reminders, or simple assistance with daily tasks.
About: I’ve loved animals since I was a kid. I would love to able to walk and watch your pets for you. I currently work in the animal field and would love a way to enjoy my passion and make money for my savings. I currently work a part time job and would need to text or have a call about what days I’m available. I would prefer a day of walks, check-ins, and would be open to overnight. I would love to sit at the owners home. I would take them for daily walks in your neighborhood or nearby parks. I’m also good at nap time and daily feedings for your pets.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, hamsters, and Guinea pigs since I was 6 years old. I’ve also helped in caring for my sister’s bearded dragon! I work from home and can bring my work with me so I’m pretty flexible! I have experience letting my own animals out at night when needed. Make sure that the pet gets what they need- food, water, playtime, snuggles, space, outside time. With the client’s home I will make sure to keep things tidy and orderly.
About: I haven't lived in a home without at least one pet, ever since I was a child. I believe all animals deserve the utmost consideration and care. I am currently working on pet sitting for my neighbor, this is a temporary job, so I should be available to handle your pets very soon. I'm not available on Saturdays, but I can dog walk and drop in during the other days of the week from 11am to 10pm. Houses will be unchanged when I leave, I can work miracles for messes and I like to maintain a strict structure or schedule for dogs.
About: I have been lovingly caring for my pets since age 6, and never looked back. At 10 years old I began training puppies and have experience with animals of all ages. Let your mind relax knowing your precious pets are in good hands! 🐩🐕🐈 I have wide open overnight plus afternoon availability to guaranty your puppies, kitties etc. are getting plenty of exercise, bathroom breaks, love and more.

About: I'm a freelance writer and blogger and have the flexibility of working from home. I have two chihuahuas of my own. They are both older dogs and pretty chill. I have a masters in mass communication where I studied animal behavior and the media's influence on society's views of animals. I adore all living things. If I could have any job in the world and money wasn’t an issue, I’d open my own animal shelter and animal protection organization. Having the resources to shelter as many animals as possible would bring me the utmost joy and sense of fulfillment. I'm more than happy to brush your dog/cat and offer delicious homemade treats. Please supply a list of any medical conditions or allergies your animal may have. **IMPORTANT** If your dog is not comfortable with people, please do not request my services. I don't want to take any chances risking your dog's safety or my own. Thank you.

To me their not just pets their family and should be treated with the same tenderness and care that you would want someone to treat you with.

Due to my apartment complex not allowing pets, I care for pets at clients’ homes, whether that’s through visits to the home or housesitting for the amount of time needed.

Karyn L.
“Karyn cares more about animals than any person I have ever met. She has two small dogs that she cares about more than anything in the world and it is very easy to see. She is constantly doing research about the smallest ingredients in her dogs' food, the best ways to keep her dogs happy, and how she can help others help their animals. While I secretly believe that she cares more for dogs than people, she does not hide her love for people either. She is a very friendly person, and enjoys helping anyone that needs it. Karyn regularly watches our family's dog over days when no one will be home. While our dog was nervous about it at first, she soon became very comfortable with Karyn and now seems to treat the stay-overs like mini vacations.”
