About: Hello! My name is Vanessa, a dedicated pet lover with a special fondness for dogs, cat, and rabbits. I’ve experienced firsthand the peace of mind that comes from a trustworthy pet sitter. This inspired me to start pet sitting for others, as I also come with a lifetime of experience caring for diverse pets such as cats, dogs, chickens, turtles, and more! I understand how important our pets are in our lives and treat them with the same love and attention I give my own. I believe pets are family, and I’m committed to providing the compassionate, attentive care they deserve while you’re away. I want to make sure your pets feel loved and cared for. Thank you for your consideration of choosing me as your pet sitter. I schedule pet visits around my family time, freelance/contract work, and daily activities. This flexible approach helps your pets get the love and attention they deserve while your away. I prioritize your pets safety, trust, and comfort by following your care instructions, and ensuring your home remains as you left it. I introduce myself to your pet gradually, with a calm and soothing approach to build trust. I’ll engage with them at their own pace to ensure they feel safe and not overwhelmed.
“Will definitely be booking Jenae again! She accepted our booking on a short notice and had great communication the whole time. We were a bit skeptical of the service being our first time using it, but Jenae has changed our minds! She has earned our service and trust for sure!”

About: Hi, I'm Leslie! This is my alternative option since my husband refused to allow me and adopt another fur baby 😅. I've had dogs my entire life. From the time I was a toddler, dogs have been a constant and beloved presence in my world. Growing up, my family always had at least one furry friend, and caring for them became second nature to me. I’ve owned dogs of various breeds, sizes, and temperaments, and each one has taught me something new about love, patience, and responsibility. My daily routine includes long, enjoyable walks, playful training sessions, and careful grooming to keep my dogs healthy and happy. I understand the importance of personalized care and make sure to tailor my approach to meet each dog's unique needs and personality. My home is filled with love and laughter, with plenty of toys, cozy spots for naps, and, of course, lots of belly rubs. My lifelong experience with dogs has given me a deep understanding of their behavior and needs, ensuring they always feel safe, loved, and well-cared for. I genuinely love dogs and find immense joy in their companionship. If you’re looking for a reliable, passionate, and experienced dog sitter, I’d be thrilled to take care of your furry friend as if they were my own. MEET AND GREET REQUIRED Dogs MUST be vaccinated. I’m an elementary teacher who is off in the summer and looking to keep myself occupied during this long break at home. I’m home all day basically unless I run to the store. I live in a house with a big back yard where your fur babies can run around and enjoy nature! We will always have someone out there as well to make sure everything is okay.
“Thank you Michael for taking care of my babies. Especially when you notice something is wrong with Bandits poop. Or when there is something off. I like how you care for my baby and inform me when something is off.”

About: *If you would like me to do multiple 30 minute vists or walks, please book drops ins/walks. If you book house sitting please be aware it’s only one visit per day and I do not stay over night at a clients home* Hello, my name is Courtney and I’m your pets new best friend! I’ve always been told I have a “way” with animals and it has helped me create an understanding of them, their behavior and psychology. I was fortunate enough to be raised in a household with multiple dogs, cats and even exotics. The care and well being of animals is something I’ve been passionate about my entire life. In the future I’d like to go into the animal care or behavioral field so I’m trying to get as much experience in with as many different animals as possible! Special needs/seniors/etc are not a problem for me. I can guarantee that I will treat your dogs (or cats) with the same love and respect I show my own pack.
“Cristina has come to the rescue for me again! This week with my schedule was very hectic, she fit Lily in for afternoon walks, which is truly a huge help during my work day. She is always on time, Lily is ecstatic to see her when she pulls in (very good sign), and when she brings Lily home she gives me an update. I cannot recommend Cristina enough, she is incredibly reliable!”

About: I've owned dogs all my life. A home is not a home if you don't have paw pals. If I care for your baby I will take care of him as if he were mine. They will go for walks everyday. We will play fetch. I also have a fenced yard so they will be safe and well taken care of. Your pet will not be bored. I have one dog myself and she is solid rotten. I do work but, I do 3 days on 4 days off. My son is home during the day, and he's off on weekends. He loves to play with the dogs, and he also helps walk the dogs when needed. 😍 Your baby will go for walks everyday. We will play fetch.

About: I have three dogs, from large to small, young to old. Some pets need to release energy and miss us when we're not there, causing mischief. You may not always have time to walk your dog after work. I help them release some energy and let them enjoy using their noses while enjoying the fresh air. Taking pets for walks also releases anxiety and boredom and provides mental stimulation. I work full-time as a pet walker, drop-in, and feeding Dog Mom. I will accommodate for early (after 5:00 AM) or late (before 9:00 PM) outings. If your pet needs feeding and fresh water, just let me know. I do not care for pets in my home as my 3 dogs only put up with each other, and any unknown pets don't always get along with mine.

“Coco is hard to handle when out on walks. She weighs approximately 100 lb and his dog aggressive, so we always have to be careful. Maddy did a great job of taking care of our baby and controled Coco well.”
