“Fantastic!”
“Jessica was wonderful as always! She was very communicative and even went above and beyond by taking my dog for a walk and helping clean up when he had an accident. She is very appreciated and absolutely recommended!”

“Katerina was wonderful with our babies!”
About: I've had pets my whole life, from birds, reptiles, and fish to dogs, cats and rodents, so I know my way around various pets and how to take care of them, as such any special needs won't be too far out of my expertise. When it comes to dogs I've taken two puppies of mine to training classes and am willing to work with whatever training you have in place with your dog, whether that is working on correcting behaviors like jumping or continuing to teach them certain tricks while you're away, I will try my best to make sure they stay on the right track! Cats are the kind of pet I've had for the longest and know the best, even though none of mine so far have been major trouble makers I know how fickle some can be. I'm not afraid to do the occasional litterbox clean if needed or to keep an eye on them during their occasional zoomies. Currently my schedule is pretty flexible, I'm available any day from noon to midnight so if you need someone to check in on your pet overnight I'm available! I'm willing to work with any dietary needs and/or restrictions your pet has and as I've given medications to my pets before I would be able to give your pet any if they needed it during my visit. I'm big into teaching my dogs how to be respectful on a walk so I would be willing to continue any on walk training you may have!
“Heidi followed all instructions given for care of my cats while providing daily updates.”
About: I started my Dogsitting business 8 years ago, and have relied on word of mouth until now! I’ve dogsat overnight for over 75 furry friends. I will make your pet my priority as I cater to their needs. I’m an enthusiastic pet lover who is ready to ease your stress when leaving town & love on your furry friends! I’m currently a kindergarten teacher on summer break but I am obtaining my masters degree and will be unable to return to the classroom next year due to a required internship placement. With that being said, I am relying on side hustles and my love of dogs to help get me through grad school! I have a 7 year old golden doodle who is my pride and joy. Although I’m partial to poodles, I’ve Dogsat for dogs of all breeds.
About: I have had fur pets since I was 4 years old. I love cats and dogs! I have experience feeding, bathing, walking, clipping nails (cats), bottle feeding and giving all the pets they need! Pets are a part of the family to me. I have 2 cats and 1 dog and they all sleep with me at night. I’ll take good care of your fur baby too. I am a mom to both human and fur babies so pet care is a daily routine naturally for me. My work schedule is pretty flexible which would allow me to visit your pet a few times a day. I will follow your rules for your pet to the best of my abilities. I am familiar with feeding dry food and canned food to both cats and dogs. I enjoy playing fetch and giving good scratches to your furry friends!
About: I have adored animals my entire life! I have so much respect for all living creatures, and I prioritize their safety and well-being. I love to play with all dogs and can adapt to a high variety of pet personalities. On top of caring for my own family’s pets through the years, I have watched over plenty of people’s furry loved ones. I have experience with walking dogs, monitoring potty breaks, overnight stays, watching senior dogs, blind / deaf dogs, hyperactive dogs, and more. I learn quickly and have a fast memory for all necessary routines, special needs, etc. It is not hard for me to want to take care of your animals because I am nearly certain to fall in love with any pet at first sight! Pet sitting is currently my only job, so you are my first priority! As of now, I am open every day of the week and am willing to work at any time, including nights. I care for pets by providing constant attention while in my client’s home. I watch over their body language to understand the pet’s needs. Before the stays, I try to do my research on your specific breed so I will be prepared. In my opinion, some of the best pet care comes from simply showing your kindness and fostering a true compassion for animal well-being.

I’m retired with a flexible schedule. Let me know what you need and I will respond ASAP so you can plan for the option that works best for you. Does your pet have special needs, such as daily meds? My nursing background assures accuracy of any directions required to support your dog’s needs. But even if your pup just needs some TLC ear scratches, cuddles and walks, I’m your caregiver.

About: I have been around dogs my entire life. I rescued my pit mix, Hattie 6 years ago. I also just added Ollie (6 month red heeler mix) to my family from PCH. He started as a foster but grew on us! I still open my house to other fosters, I currently have a 2 month catahoola mix pup until he finds his forever home. I work at Rivian. I am able to stop by early in the morning or in the evenings for walks and feedings. My weekends are opens. I have a fenced in yard. My dogs typically just go out there. My pit mix is a puller so we do not go on many walks but the pup loves walks.

About: I have a lot of pet care experience from pet sitting, drop-ins, caring for medical disabled dog, pet walking. I am ready to love your pet like it’s my own and let you relax knowing your baby is in the best hands! I love to send pic updates of your pet and I playing and having fun! I have watched family members pets, neighbors pets and people I just met through referral. I am also happy to bathe your pet if requested. I had a 165lb Rottweiler, so now it seems like I can do anything! :) I work remotely and can take my work anywhere! Need me at your house during the day? I can do that as long as you can share your Wi-Fi with me! :) I have plenty of time to look after your pet and I am so excited to meet them! I am able to crate your dog safely if needed and request by you. I also will ensure when we go on walks that your pet is away from other pets to avoid any form of conflict.

This includes feeding them, giving them any necessary medication, taking them for walks, playing with them, and providing them with companionship. As a responsible and trustworthy caregiver, my top priority is always the safety and well-being of the animal.

About: I have had pets since was teenager. So lots of experience taking care of animals big and small. I am caring, and know how to keep animals focused on the walk. Will come and visit your pet and take them out to potty as well play fetch with them or just play. Make sure all is good with them.

From the moment I met him, I could tell that he had a genuine love and passion for animals, and my furry friend immediately took to him as well. Braeden was extremely reliable and always arrived on time to take care of my dog. He made sure to follow all of the instructions I provided and went above and beyond to make sure my dog felt comfortable and happy while I was away. He even sent me pictures and updates to let me know how my dog was doing, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. What I appreciated most about Braeden was his professionalism and his caring demeanor. He treated my dog like his own, and I could tell that he truly enjoyed spending time with her. I highly recommend Braeden to anyone who is in need of a reliable, responsible, and caring dog sitter. He is the best!”
