About: I’ve lived with dogs my whole life, I’ve cared, helped, and loved for 10 dogs at one time. I trained, bathed, feed and provided all basic. I’ve had more than a dozen dogs who’ve been pregnant (not at once) but I do know how to care for a pregnant momma and new born puppies. I’m well aware of the do’s and don’ts of pet sitting. Monday - Friday, 6:00pm to midnight longer if needed. Saturday I’m free all day, I’m free Sunday in the morning until 10am and available after 1pm to the rest of the day I feed, bathe, and give them water and take care of all basic necessities. I take them on walks and to the park and give them lots of cuddles! :D
About: My availability is very flexible. I work from home now and am finally able to love on your fur babies around the clock! I also offer house sitting at your home or at my house as well. I love taking the fur babies out for a walk. It’s good exercise for them and myself to get fresh air. Previously had two chihuahua’s that were escape artists so fully doggy proof. I also have experience on working with handicap fur babies. I currently worked with a fur baby that lost motion in his back legs prior to his visit to me and he was/is now able to balance on his back legs from the at home physical therapy we would do. And now he gets so excited when I drop by his home to check on him (we are actual best friends seriously.) I am available to walk your dogs or check in on your cats/dogs while you are away as well as make sure they are fed and have plenty of water and play time throughout the day if you have an extremely busy schedule. I have been house sitting dogs and cats previously for well over 15 years and have owned pets previously (before my parents moved overseas and kept the pack together) for well over 20 years. Would love to help with your fur babies! I work full time as a manager from home so I am able to fully utilize loving on your fur baby as well as take them out for walks and potty breaks consistently. When I am pet sitting the babies sleep in the bed with me and are on the couch getting all of the cuddles. It is a staycation.
About: I started pet setting because of my love of fur babies. To me, they are not pets, they are family. I cared for my Simon for the past 18 years. My house has been customized for him because he was a part of my family. From his own room with pet pictures and a fun chandelier, to the dog doors on our patio, to his own private section of the yard, my home is pet friendly. My home will be your fur baby's home away from home. I have experience with young playful pups all the way to senior dogs who require more delicate attention. My family is ready to assist you in your needs. I am a stay at home mom. My schedule typically involves taking my kids to and from school, sitting on the patio, going for walks around the neighborhood, shooting home decor youtube videos, and shopping. While fur sitting, I will typically be home. Your baby will have its own little room (the closet under the stairs with a baby gate). His room is only a few feet from my own bedroom and in the middle of the living room and kitchen. If your baby is housebroken, he will be able to walk around the house freely and I will take him on the patio and the playground in my backyard. If he likes walks, he can go on walks. If he is a senior or if it is too hot outside, I can take him for a walk in the pet stroller. I will also send videos and pictures throughout his stay. I have a large fenced in back yard. Your dog will not be outside alone. I also have an enclosed patio which is great for relaxing and getting fresh air without having to be completely outside.
About: Hey there! I’ve been pet sitting for over a decade and have experience caring for animals of all kinds—whether they have fur, feathers, or scales. While I primarily care for dogs and cats, I’m also very comfortable with birds, reptiles, and other non-traditional pets. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy building trust with every animal I care for. If you have a unique pet or specific needs, I’d be happy to help! Though I work full time, I involve pet care in my every day routine. If I'm up, they're up, if I'm outside, they're outside. I live an active lifestyle. I incorporate them in my daily life, so if they are a dog that enjoys walking, I incorporate that into my routine. If they’re a couch potato then we will be couch potatoes together.

About: I’m currently a Vet-Tech student with hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats through my schooling. I’ve handled, medicated, and cared for pets while making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I’m patient, attentive, and a huge animal lover! 🐾💕 I’m currently in school to become a Vet-Tech, so caring for animals is already a big part of my daily routine! I spend a lot of time around dogs and cats throughout the day and truly love being around animals. Other than school, I have a dog named Oreo that I also care for daily. I provide a safe, loving, and calm environment where pets can feel comfortable and cared for. I always pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs to make sure they feel secure. I’m also experienced with feeding schedules, medication, potty breaks, playtime, and giving pets lots of patience and affection! 🐾💕
About: I will treat other dogs like they are one of my own. I will give them treats, praise, play time, training and just give them the attention they deserve. (Especially pets and scratches) I also do not want to force my affection onto a dog if they and their owners are not comfortable with it. I am here to have fun and share my interest for dogs with others, within everyone's comfort zone. If there are any actions or words that need to be avoided, I will use all of my power to do just that so everyone is happy. To put it simply, I am excited for this job and wish meet others that have the same ideas as I do when it comes to dogs.
“Great, my puppy really enjoy his walks with Rebecca, she is professional and keeps the communication with me , she is helpful and willing to meet my expectations”

About: I am the family member to go to when you need a dog sitter when you are going out of town. I always dog sit sometimes i even offer to do so for fun. I have always had a bond with animals. I grew up having a lot of dogs. My bond with animals especially dogs is amazing. Not only do i love them but they love me too. Im responsible and would be a wonderful candidate for you. Making sure i have a great bond with every single one of your furry friends is indeed my goal. My love for animals is beyond this world. Im very energetic so play time wouldn’t be a problem at all. Making sure the animals are healthy physically and mentally is a priority as well.
About: Hello! My name is Shay☺️ I moved back to the US a year ago from the UK, having lived there for my postgrad program. I have at least 2 decades worth of experience loving and caring for a wide variety of animals! I have experience with critters from insects, to snakes, lizards, rodents, cats, dogs, goats, donkeys, horses, and even some zoo animals! I have interned at a major metropolitan zoo in animal care and client outreach, managed a small petting zoo/equestrian department, worked in stables, and part time at Blair Drummond Safari park in the educational department! My passion is in conservation and stewardship of the creatures we share the world with, including our pets. I also have a background in reinforcement training, enrichment development, and diet prep from strict herbivores to carnivores. I promise to give your fur baby (or scaly baby) all care and attention of a professional animal lover. My schedule is flexible to fit whatever you need most! I am mostly doing gig work at the moment while I get things ready for the next venture so I am looking forward to making some new four legged friends! (Or three legged, I don’t judge) In any sort of stressful situation, I find it really helps to mitigate any behavioral anxiety if the animal’s own routines are maintained as closely as possible to when you’re home. That being said, I would always recommend keeping your critter at home and having me come to them, to make them feel as comfortable and safe as possible. I am more than happy to take them out on excursions/walks around a local park, but being able for them to be in their own home with their own toys allows them to feel much more confident even while you’re far away.
About: As an experienced pet sitter, I provide reliable, compassionate care for both dogs and cats. I have experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. My services include feeding, walking, playtime, administering medications when needed, cleaning litter boxes, and maintaining each pet's regular routine. I understand that every pet has unique needs and personalities, and I take pride in providing personalized attention, patience, and plenty of affection. My goal is to give pet owners peace of mind knowing their furry family members are receiving exceptional care in a safe and nurturing environment. I work part-time and have plenty of time to spend with your fur baby. I will make them feel safe and comfortable and treat them as my own. I can pet-sit in your home. I can do drop-in visits. I am also available to walk your pet. Whatever it is that you need at this time for your pet I am open to assist.
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I also have hands-on experience caring for my own cat, so I understand the importance of providing individualized care, patience, and attention to each pet’s unique needs. Every animal deserves knowledgeable, compassionate care. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, medication reminders, or simply companionship while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same love and respect I give my own animals. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, and pet sitting is the perfect fit alongside my work as an independent artist. My flexible schedule allows me to provide dependable, attentive care for dogs, cats, and even exotic pets. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping your pet company, I’ll treat them with the same love and care I give my own. When caring for pets in your home, I treat your space with the same respect and attention I would my own. I’ll carefully follow your pet’s routine, keep food and water areas clean, clean up after your pets, and make sure your home stays tidy while you’re away. My goal is to provide a stress-free experience by keeping both your pets and your home safe, comfortable, and well cared for until you return.
About: Animals have always been a central part of my life — I grew up caring for pets alongside family and have hands-on experience caring for multiple dogs at once. I pride myself on being reliable and consistent, especially when it comes to feeding schedules and following each pet owner's specific instructions to the letter. Every pet has their own routine and personality, and I make it a priority to honor that. What truly sets me apart is that I treat every pet like my own. I'm attentive, patient, and genuinely love spending time with animals — it's not just a job for me, it's something I care deeply about. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I'm currently taking online classes over the summer, which means I'm home almost all of the time — so pets in my care are never left alone for long. My schedule is flexible and low-key, which means I can give dogs the attention, playtime, and consistency they deserve throughout the entire day. On the rare occasion I do step out, it's briefly for family activities or to take the dogs on a walk. Otherwise, I'm home and fully present. I also occasionally help care for young children, so I'm used to being responsible, patient, and attentive to those who depend on me — pets included The safety and comfort of every pet I care for is my top priority. My home is set up perfectly for dogs — we have a fully fenced-in yard, so pups can run, play, and enjoy the outdoors safely without any worry. During their stay, dogs are kept close to me in my room for the majority of the time, so they always have company and I can keep a close eye on them. We do have two resident dogs in the home, but they are both friendly and well socialized — they've welcomed visiting dogs before without any issues, making the transition smooth and stress free for everyone. I always make sure to do a slow, supervised introduction between dogs to ensure everyone is comfortable before giving them free time together. Every pet's boundaries are respected and their safety comes first.
About: Hello Friends! Fun loving Dallas native with over a 20 years of pet and house sitting experience. I don't mind long walks, high energy playtime, and the occasional couch snuggle. I have a private home with a nice backyard. Your dog will be in great hands and I will provide the love and care for your dogs while you are unable to. I like to think of myself as a modern day Dr. Doolittle. I truly believe dogs are man's best friend and that life would be a lot less enjoyable without our 4 (sometimes less) legged companions. I initially began pet sitting as a way to support myself during college. The side job quickly became a personal passion for me as I enjoyed assisting with and caring for sick and elderly pets. Pet sitting is more than providing a service for me, it has allowed me to add many 4 legged members to my family. I have been a pet/home sitter for over 20 years . I have experience with many breeds and dogs with ailments. Outside of dogsitting, I had a family dog of 17 years that I helped provide care for as well. I have been a foster parent and enjoy visiting shelters to play and visit with homeless or orphaned pets. I am a firm believer that pets are family and I approach pet sitting the same way. I will treat your fur baby with the same love and kindness they receive at home. I will usually send photo and video updates while you are away and will use technology such as FaceTime and if you would like to speak to your pup as well. I also have experience administering doggy meds, and providing care for special needs and elderly pets. Book with me today, you and your pup(s) won't be disappointed!! I work from home and generally a home body so I can be readily available for your furry friend at the drop of a dime. My approach to animal sitting is simple. Happy pet, happy pet sitter. I treat your furry friend as if it was my own with care and respect.

About: I love all kinds of dogs and their playfull nature!I normally walk for 30 minutes or more on a regular so if your dog needs a nice walk in definitely built for it! I have access to someone that has experience dog grooming so if your dog needs a good wash I can provide that as well. I'm pretty open to request so if you need something all you have to do is ask and we can work something out. If your dog likes attention I have kids that love dogs that will help wear out any high energy dogs and I don't mind going to some open fields and having the open run around till their hearts content. I would love to create some regular customers but if you only want to try me out I'm more then ok with that!

Everything has gone great! From the initial meet-and-greet to completing her first week of walks with Luna, it’s been a total success with Amanda.
