About: I have had 2 dogs and grew up taking care of both my own pets and friends pets. I am attentive to details and love helping my animal friends. I do not accept boarding rq right now. I can house sit: take care of an animal and your house while you are away: I.e if your dog/cat really needs attention and/or someone to stay with them and get some chores around the house finished. I work part time so I have plenty of time to stop by and help as well as to walk at times that fit into others schedules I am very attentive to details and love to follow systems. if you let me know requirements for pets whether that be medicine, allergies, or other situations I am very good at remembering and adhering to guidelines.

About: Hi! I’m Tamara, and I’ve been an animal lover my whole life 🐾 I genuinely enjoy spending time with pets—their personalities, their quirks, and just making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I offer pet sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking, and I always try to tailor care to each pet’s needs. Whether that’s long walks, playtime, sticking to a specific routine, or just keeping them company and giving lots of attention, I’m happy to adjust. I know how important it is for pets to feel comfortable in their own environment, so I focus on keeping things calm, consistent, and stress-free. I’ve had experience caring for dogs and cats of different ages, temperaments, and needs, and I’m very attentive to details like feeding routines, medications (if needed), and behavior changes. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. My schedule is flexible, and I work in a way that allows me to spend quality time with the pets I care for. I’m reliable, responsive, and treat every pet like they’re my own. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry family member 💛 I’m currently y working part-time so have plenty of time to take care of your babies. I have plenty of dog and cat toys to play with, grooming stuff etc. I have a partially fences yard and a medium size dog and 3 cats to keep your babies company. If I come to your house, I make sure I follow your instructions closely

“Delina was so hopeful when we need drop in pet care very last minute. I was able to coordinate with her while I was out of town and very quick comms. She was very communicative, put me at ease, and did a great job with my reactive senior pups. I will certainly contact her for assistance again in future.”

About: I have more than 14 years of professional animal-care experience, including 10 years working as a veterinary technician. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages and personalities, including seniors, shy or anxious pets, and animals with medical or special-care needs. My veterinary background taught me to pay close attention to the little things — changes in appetite, behavior, mobility, bathroom habits, or overall comfort — and to recognize when something may need closer attention. I’m also comfortable following detailed feeding and medication instructions and maintaining established routines. I know that every pet is different, so I adjust my care to the individual animal rather than expecting them to immediately adapt to me. Some pets want constant attention and cuddles; others need a little more time and space before they feel comfortable. My goal is always to help them feel safe, relaxed, and at home while their person is away. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and a variety of other animals throughout my career, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality and routine. I’m home throughout the day, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal schedule as closely as possible, including their usual feeding, walking, medication, and bedtime routines. I know many pets do best when their routine stays familiar, so I’m very flexible and will tailor their day to what they’re accustomed to at home. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I have a fully fenced backyard for supervised outdoor time and potty breaks, and there are no children or resident pets in my home. This allows visiting pets to have a calm environment and plenty of individualized attention. I follow each owner’s instructions regarding leashes, harnesses, feeding, medications, exercise, and household routines. My veterinary experience also means I’m accustomed to monitoring animals closely for changes in behavior, appetite, mobility, bathroom habits, or comfort. I take introductions slowly and let pets settle in at their own pace. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can see how your pet is doing while you’re away.

About: As a dedicated cat lover, I know that cats are most comfortable when their routines, territory, and personal boundaries are respected. Whether your cat is an outgoing socializer who wants immediate playtime or a sensitive soul who needs a quiet presence and time to warm up, I adapt my approach to fit their unique personality. I focus on providing low-stress, highly reliable drop-in visits and care. I understand that subtle changes in a cat's behavior or appetite matter, and I pay close attention to the small details that keep them feeling safe and happy while you are away. I’m currently retired after 27 years as a federal civil servant. I’ll have plenty of time to care for your furry family members and house sitting needs. I am experienced in managing multi-cat dynamics, tracking wellness routines, and creating a calm, predictable environment. I would love to schedule a free meet-and-greet to get to know you and your cats before booking.

About: Growing up I’ve had all sorts of pets! Ranging from reptiles to aquatic animals. I started dog walking when I was a child by walking dogs that belonged to neighbors or nearby family. As I got older they would offer me to dog sit for them and it’s something I really enjoy. I work a part time, split shift job. My work hours are 7-9 and 2-4 on weekdays and have free time on weekends if not working overtime. I have a fenced back yard with outdoor leaches I let my pets roam through. I also take them for walks or to known fields or dog parks.

About: I’ve cared for both energetic puppies and slow-moving seniors. I’m good at managing different personalities, walks, medications, and creating a calm environment.I show up on time I currently have flexible availability throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. I’m happy to help with regularly scheduled dog walks, occasional drop-in visits, and last-minute requests whenever my schedule allows. I understand that life gets busy, so I do my best to provide dependable and convenient pet care that works around your schedule. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities! 💕 When caring for pets in their own homes, I always aim to follow their normal routines and the instructions provided by their owners. I make sure doors are securely closed, pets have access to fresh water, and their feeding, walking, and playtime needs are met. I respect every client’s home and belongings and believe in keeping communication open throughout each visit. I’m also happy to arrange a Meet & Greet beforehand so we can get acquainted and discuss your pet’s specific needs and personality.

About: I recently lost my dog whom I loved and enjoyed caring for. I will ensure your dog is cared for as if they were my own. I have experience administering medication and making dogs comfortable. I would enjoy repeat furry friends. I currently work from home. I walk my dog three times per day and I have a fenced in backyard where the dogs can enjoy the weather. I’m able to administer medication (if needed) and will ensure your dog is on a regular schedule, that you provide. Your pet will be in good hands.
