About: I first dog sat for my grandparents when I was twelve and since then I have dog sat for other friends and family members and loved each and every time. I love getting to know your pets and their personalities and being a friend to them while their family is away. I have a special soft spot for senior dogs who need a little extra care after spending several years caring for my family's basset hound before she passed. I am currently working part time so I have plenty of time to spend playing with your fur fam! While my work schedule changes from week to week, my shifts are never more than five hours which means that I can stop by often for pup potty breaks! I am happy to stop by your home multiple times a day and make sure that your furry friend has food water, has gone potty, and been walked and played with! I am also happy to water plants! If your dogo needs someone there during the night I am open to that as well :)

About: I’m currently a Veterinary Assistant at an animal hospital I’ve worked at for over 6 years. I’ve had dogs from small to big, growing up. I have experience taking care of family, friends, and coworkers pets. I am very comfortable taking care of your kiddos no matter the breed, size or age 😊🐾 I work full time. I am available all day Sunday/Monday. During my workweek (Tuesday-Saturday) I’m available after 4pm for walks, potty breaks or any care. I can house sit any day of the week but note that I will be at work from 7am-4pm. If not too far from my workplace, I can stop by on my lunch break to check on your pet for a potty break. I will follow whatever rules and or schedule you may have for your pet. They are my top priority so they will be monitored, played with and loved while in my care ❤️🐾

“Laura was wonderful with our German Shepherd and 2 cats. She was very conscientious, took lots of notes and asked questions when she needed a clarification.”

“Mindy and her husband arrived promptly at our hotel to care for our dog while we attended a memorial service over 4 hrs long. They fed, walked and spent quality time together, and sent several photos to me . I would highly recommend them , especially to anyone traveling and in need of hotel Pet care in their absence, at a reasonable rate.”

About: I grew up on a farm, so animals have always been part of my world—feeding chickens before breakfast, brushing horses after school, and getting covered in dog hair in between! I’ve looked after everything from bouncy puppies to mellow senior dogs, and I’ve always had an easy, natural connection with animals. They seem to sense that I’m one of the good ones. I’m great at picking up on their vibes—whether they’re in the mood to zoom around or just want some chill cuddle time. Taking care of animals is second nature to me, and honestly, it’s one of my favorite things to do. I live a flexible lifestyle and am fully available to care for your pets. Since I’m not tied to a traditional job or schedule, I can offer your fur babies lots of time, attention, and consistency. Whether it’s daily walks, extended stays, or last-minute needs, I’m here to help and happy to adapt to your routine. I prioritize creating a safe, nurturing environment wherever I’m staying. I care for pets in their own familiar space, which helps them feel secure and relaxed. I’m attentive to routines, respectful of your home, and can adapt to any special needs your pet may have—whether that means crating, administering medication, or extra cuddle time.

“Marin was very professional and always communicated through the whole time we were gone and not to mention we feel the service was reasonable. She also sent photos and updated us with their schedules. I would have Marin watch our three dogs again. Thank You again Marin!”

About: Ive owned animals my whole life! I’ve worked at a veterinarian clinic for two years as a veterinarian assistant, currently working on becoming a veterinarian technician. I’ve watched livestock, dogs, cats, and much more! I’m up at 5:30 am on weekdays to care for my own animals before leaving for work at 7 am. When I get home it’s straight to tending to my animals. Friday through Sunday I’m up by 7 am to tend to my animals! I have a fenced double lot yard for your babies to run! I also have a crate or room for your crates. I have animals that are fully vaccinated so that they are able to play! And multiple rooms if need to be separated.

About: Your pets have my full attention when they’re in my care. I’ve raised and cared for animals my entire life—from dogs and cats to horses and chickens—and I’m comfortable with all breeds and temperaments. In high school, I apprenticed as a vet tech, which gave me hands-on experience with basic medical care, handling anxious pets, and recognizing when something’s wrong. I'm currently raising three dogs, including a working-line German Shepherd trained in service tasks and a high-energy husky/malinois/wolf mix, so I’m no stranger to active, smart pups who need structure and stimulation. I have experience with puppy training, senior care, and building trust with shy or reactive dogs. Whether your pet needs calm companionship, a brisk walk, or mental engagement, I adapt my approach to fit their unique personality. As a professional photographer, my schedule is flexible and allows me to give your pet consistent, attentive care throughout the day. Walks are built into our daily routine—weather permitting—and if it’s too hot or stormy, we switch to indoor enrichment and play. I’m usually home during the day and evening unless I’m out for a shoot, and I’ll only accept bookings that allow me to maintain that level of presence and care. Pets in my home or yours will always feel seen, safe, and included. Safety is a top priority in everything I do. My background as a vet tech apprentice helps me spot issues early and ensure all pets stay healthy and comfortable. At home, our dogs are treated like family—but with boundaries. We maintain structure, encourage good behavior, and never let things slide just because a pet is cute (though we do think they’re all adorable). Our home is pet-friendly with lots of enrichment options, supervised outdoor time, and cozy spots to relax. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I’ll respect your space, routines, and pet’s comfort zones—leaving everything just as I found it (or better).

“Melissa was great! She watched our new puppy Bacall and our other dog Bogey. She was always communicating and sending pics and videos of our doggies. We loved her so much that she is going to be checking on our doggies while we are at work.”

About: I’ve delt with many animals and I have a way with them, I do a lot of volunteer work with animals at shelters so I’ve been bitten and scratched but it’s no worries at all I know it’s not the animals fault. I’m currently working a part time job I’m not graduated just yet but I do have a lot of free time when I’m not at work. I have a huge back yard and many pets myself they are super friendly with other animals as long as yours are, my yard is fenced completely

“We had a great experience with our pup sitter! She followed our directions perfectly! Pups were very well cared for and loved...we could tell when we came home how they reacted to us. She also left our home exactly as we had left it!”

About: I’ve cared for animals since a young age. I love all animals and genuinely love cats and dogs. I have watched friends and families animals often over the years. Anything from over night stays, to mid day walks, to bathing and feeding them. I work from home and have the space to take care of a few extra four legged furry friends! I have a large fenced back yard and the ability to care for your animal throughout the day all day everyday! I am a very compassionate and loving person. Animals are so fun and I love interacting with them. From playing fetch to relaxing on the couch, I’m your gal!

About: I have an almost 2 year old chihuahua dachshund, he’s a very friendly little guy. I love small and medium dogs and have house/pet sat for many friends, family; and coworkers with dogs ranging from little dachshunds to golden retrievers. I love going on walks as well and would love to take your dog on an outing. I’m looking for part time and spontaneous jobs like an occasional dogsitting job or dog walking job. I’m also available for pet sitting in home or at my own home. I will be respectful of what you ask for your pet and your home if I am going into it, it’s your pet and your home :)

“Agan Crystal was absolutely fantastic in looking after our high-maintenance Pug. We were thrilled to receive regular updates and the most beautiful professional photos of our boy. We loved the photos so much that we're planning to have some printed and framed.”

“Caliope was great! Arrived a bit early to do a meet and greet. She gave Capone a ton of shoulder massages and snuggles. I appreciated that Caliope was available at such late notice. Thank you!!!”

About: I’ve taken care of mostly cattle dogs since I was 10. My neighbors, family friends, family, and coworkers always ask me to pet sit for them. I am so excited to have the time to care for and love your furry friends! I work from Tuesday-Friday and I will be available after 7pm Friday. Saturday-Monday I am available at all times. I am not able to keep your furry friend in my current living space, but always am more than happy to take care of them in their home environment.

About: I have grown up around animals my whole life. I also work at a doggie boarding business as my other job normally i’m working early in the morning for! I feel like life isn’t complete with out our furry friends! We currently have a dog his name is milo and he’s the best boy I would love another one but the husband says no so why not walk or play with them while i can even though i can’t keep them! I am looking forward to learn about the different personalities and fun your animals come with! I am currently working but normally in the mornings and off by noon or before that! I am looking forward to spending time with all the fur babies! We love spoiling our animals with love and play time! There will be lots of cuddles and running around with endless treats! (as long as it’s okay with you)

About: I’ve owned animals my whole life & have been trusted by many to take care of their fur babies. I am experienced with dogs, cats, farm animals, and even small critters (fish, hamsters, etc). I’ll love yours as my own. I currently work part-time and my schedule is pretty consistent. I am typically available during the afternoons and nights. I will usually work one or two 8 hour shifts a week but am able to tend to your pets needs and come give them a play/potty break during my shift. I live in a smaller, safe apartment in a nice neighborhood with plenty of space to walk your pet. I have a smaller fenced in backyard as well.

About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 10 years, building a strong bond with every furry friend I meet. From dogs and cats to small animals, I treat each pet like they’re my own, offering a mix of love, attention, and personalized care. I’ve had the privilege of looking after my neighbors’ pets, who always recommend me for my sweet and gentle approach. Whether it’s a playful pup needing extra attention or a shy cat who loves quiet company, I know how to make them feel safe, happy, and loved. With my experience and kind nature, you can trust that your pet will be well cared for while you’re away! I currently work as a babysitter a few days a week, not every day. I will start college in August so as of now I have plenty of time of my own. I decided to use my free time to start taking care of pets. This will help me make money to pay for future college expenses. I also want to gain even more experience than the one I have. I always like learning more about dogs and animals, plus I really enjoy it. I have a dog at home, he is mostly an indoor dog. I have a fenced yard, this makes it easier when he goes outside since I know he will be safe. When it comes to a clients home, I make sure that the pet is always safe whether it is inside or outdoors. Safety is my top priority when it comes to taking care of the pet. Depending on the service offered, I always make sure the pet feels safe with me and in the place it is in. I will also always make sure their food and water is clean and safe to eat, which is something that is also very important for the pets internal safety.
