About: I have been petting sitting ever since high school. I’ve cared for dogs (all sizes), many many cats (I grew up with 3 cats), rats, hamsters, rabbits, snakes, basically anything you could keep as a pet haha. I’m a quick learner and very flexible. Anything you need, I can do :) I am currently pursing my college degree in Art Education and during the breaks I have lots of downtime. Even during the school year I have light days that could be used to care for pets! I have done plenty of house sitting before in the past. I always keep respectful boundaries while being in and around your home and personal belongings.

About: I have taken care of pets for family and friends since I was young. Animals make me happy and I would love to make your animals happy! my summer is pretty open aside from a part time job and working out. It will be easy to fit some new fur friends into my life I have a chihuahua here at school with me that I take on walks, runs and play fetch with everyday. I have two more chihuahuas back home that I care for everyday over the summer.

About: I have taken care of all different types of pets, from rabbits to snakes, to dogs, I have a wide range of experience. Especially with dogs, my sister always adopted from a shelter, some dogs were very skittish and scared, but I learned how to read behavior when a dog is showing aggression or fear. Most importantly, I love dogs of all breeds and sizes. There is no such thing as an “aggressive breed” :) I work a part time job, luckily my shifts are no longer than six hours so I am very flexible at working around my schedule! I do not offer care services at home, I have a 5 year old golden doodle and a bunny. Both mean a lot to me, and I don’t want to bring in others that they might not get along with.

“We did a meet & greet with Morgan & she passed with flying colors! Bentley has a new dog walker - Morgan's friendly disposition and over-all great attitude won us over! We're looking forward to fun adventures and a great year ahead!”

About: My name is Meghan and I'm a pet sitter based in the DeKalb area. My family has lived here since 2005 and I've sat all different kinds of dogs and cats throughout the years. I know how it feels to cherish a fur-baby, and provide the same attentive care for the pets I watch as my own. I work from home from 830am-5pm Monday through Friday and am able to provide walks before and after work. Weekends are open for more frequent needs and I'm flexible during the evenings. I love meeting new personalities and getting to know the pets I work with. With 25 years of animal care under my belt, I am confident your fur-baby will enjoy the attention and care they deserve.

About: I’m a certified veterinary technician who worked in the emergency department and intensive care unit for about three years at a multi specialty animal hospital. Prior to that, I worked as a certified veterinary assistant at a general animal practice for about two years. I have done some volunteer work on the side at a few different animal shelters and I have also fostered. I currently have two pets of my own that are spoiled and well taken care off. I am currently a student, so I do have some free time on my hands. I go to school on Mondays and Wednesdays, which leaves me wit my the rest of the week to care for your pets. I typically try to stick to the routine the owner already has in place for their pets. I know that consistency is important when having a pet.

About: As an experienced pet care provider, I’ve spent years building strong bonds with pets of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. I understand that each animal has its own unique needs, and I’m dedicated to providing care tailored specifically to them. From administering medications and handling special dietary needs to giving endless belly rubs and playtime, I go above and beyond to make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. Pet parents can count on me for professional, trustworthy care that feels like home when they can’t be there. Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly schedule, allowing me to dedicate consistent, quality time to each animal in my care. Daily, I prioritize tasks like feeding, cleaning, and playtime, ensuring every pet’s immediate needs are met with attention to detail. Throughout the week, I schedule regular check-ins, grooming sessions, and health assessments to monitor each pet’s well-being. I also stay adaptable, ready to handle any special requests or changes in routine. My structured yet flexible approach helps me balance consistent, thorough care while maintaining a personalized experience for each pet. Caring for pets in their own homes is a privilege I take seriously, as it allows me to provide comfort and stability for animals in a familiar environment. I take the time to understand each pet’s routines and preferences, ensuring I replicate the care they’re used to. From feeding schedules to favorite toys and cozy spots, I focus on creating a calm, reassuring atmosphere. This approach is special because it not only minimizes stress for the pets but also offers peace of mind to pet owners. By respecting their space and routine, I foster a sense of trust and security, allowing pets to feel safe and loved even in their owner’s absence.
