“Kiley communicated in a timely manner and shared a lot of info with pictures on the dogs. Will happily book again when we need help!”
“Krystal was a true blessing for our family. We had a European vacation planned, and our longtime pet sitter unexpectedly fell ill and could not come - days before our trip! Krystal stepped in, last minute was no problem for her. She also happily took on the monster job of caring for our nine rescue cats for over a week. She did a perfect job of it, too. The daily report cards with pictures were amazing. It gave us such peace of mind to know that our fur babies were in such good hands. She took such extraordinary care of them and paid attention to every detail. We came home to very happy cats! I will not hesitate to book Krystal again for future trips and wholeheartedly recommend her as a pet sitter. She is the best!”

“Frankie took the best care of my kitty!! 🐈⬛ This was the longest I had left my boy and felt deep relief knowing my cat was getting regular check ins and so much attention from Frankie. Book Frankie - a thorough, kind, and communicative sitter”
About: I’ve had a pup in my household my whole life and I began walking and dog sitting for others in 2020. I have taken classes on pet and animal CPR. I am very caring and will taken great and extra care of your animal! Currently working a part time job and I am about to start a second one. I’m available for your pets in the mornings and early afternoons on weekdays with the possibility on weekends depending on work. On days that I am off I can accommodate multiple walks and/ or check ins. I have a medium sized dog who’s 2 years old at home, as well as a small 15lb pup. I listen well to instructions and take precautions if needed. I do not offer services for your dog to come to my home, however I will care for your dogs with the same quality.

About: I've taken care of multiple breeds, ages, sizes and temperaments of dogs. I love taking them on walks or playing with them to help keep them active and entertained. I've owned dogs for most of my life and look forward to taking care of yours how you would yourself! I'm currently working part-time and have an open schedule, so I'm happy to look after your pup on relatively short notice. With enough heads up, I am happy to make my way to your dog and give them the attention they need! I can easily work with crating your pet how you see fit and am adept at handling different dog behaviors. If there's any part of the house that needs to be restricted from the dog, I'm able to accommodate. I also have experience with medicine administration for pets who need them as well.
About: I grew up taking care of two high energy hunting dogs named Meadow and Nola from the puppy stage into senior years while also dog sitting for friends and family. I love going for walks with a dog by my side and will give them fresh water and food, medications as needed, and lots of pets and playtime. I am an optometry student but have extended availability this summer. I can swing by for visits in the morning, afternoon, or evening as needed. I provide drop in visits for dogs and cats to their own homes. I can change litter boxes and take the dogs out for potty breaks. I will feed your furry friend exactly as you prefer and give fresh water. As an animal lover, I will give them all of the attention, love, scratches, and playtime they ask for.
About: I have grown up with animals my entire life. Caring for animals has been my life long ambition. I understand the importance of trusting someone to care for your fur babies. My fiancé And I love training and exercising with them every day and they push us to be the best we can be. They bring so much joy and happiness to our life. I have 5 years experience pet sitting for friends and family as well. They are the support system that told me about this app. Work from home but it’s not very demanding. Extremely flexible schedule. Pets need routines just as much as humans do for a sense of calm and safety. To continue to keep your (our) fur baby safe I will keep trash cans covered or inside a latched cabinet. Move all chemicals to high shelves or behind secure doors. Keep cords, chargers, and other potentially harmful items out of reach.
“You can definitely tell she is a dog lover. Our dogs took to her very well. She went above and beyond when our original plans changed she was able and willing to accommodate to the needs. We are thankful to have her especially on short notice. Our fur babies appreciate the extra love and care they got while we were away! Highly Recommend!!!!!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs most of my life, ever since I was first introduced to them at nine years old. I’ve spent the most time with American and European bloodline Great Danes — a breed I absolutely adore, though I love all dogs deeply. In 2022, I worked for a professional dog care business, where I was responsible for four European Great Danes daily — all in the same home. I walked each dog three times a day, fed them individually twice a day, and made sure they had plenty of playtime and enrichment outside of their crates. I also assisted with the birth of a litter of puppies, helping weigh them, check their temperatures, and feed them a blended diet as they grew. It was one of the most rewarding experiences I’ve ever had. If you’re considering booking with me, feel free to text me — I’d be happy to share photos of my experience. Looking forward to meeting your fur baby! 🐾 I’m currently on summer break from college which gives me complete flexibility to schedule any days needed I’m available Sun-Sat so feel free to reach out. In my home, your pet will be treated like family. I stick to a consistent feeding schedule, offer walks three times a day, and provide regular potty breaks. If allowed, I also work on basic training using treats. I make sure your pup gets plenty of playtime, cuddles, and affection throughout the day. I usually let dogs roam freely, but at bedtime they’ll sleep in my room so I can keep a close, loving eye on them through the night. 🐾

“Meet La’Derius a year ago when he moved to my neighborhood. I have a yorkie terrier and when I needed him to keep Ace for a week while I went to go visit my father. Ace didn’t want to come back home. He is full of energy same as Ace. His 10year old daughter was also great with Ace. I highly recommend La’Derius. Thank you so much.”
