Baylee was great with drop-in visits for my dog! She was super reliable, always on time (or even early), and sent cute photos and quick updates every visit. My pup was home and happy, well-fed, exercised, and clearly loved the attention and playtime. This was a great option when I couldn’t make it home during my work day.

About: I bring dedicated, loving care to every dog I sit, with a strong focus on daily walks, interactive playtime, and personalized attention that keeps tails wagging. Skilled in reading body language, managing feeding schedules, and providing calm, patient support for pups of all ages and energy levels, I treat each dog like my own. What sets me apart is my genuine commitment to building trust—offering consistent updates with photos and notes, going the extra mile with extra belly rubs and enrichment activities, and creating a stress-free environment so owners can relax knowing their furry family member is happy, safe, and well-loved. As a stay-at-home mom, dog sitting blends beautifully into my daily and weekly life, letting me give your pup the dedicated time and affection they deserve. My home-based routine means I’m available for morning outings, midday play breaks, evening wind-downs, and everything in between. Weekdays are wonderfully open once family tasks are done, while weekends offer even greater flexibility for overnights or extra adventures. I love building a trusting bond through consistent walks, fun activities, and plenty of belly rubs—creating a stress-free, happy experience so your furry family member feels right at home while you’re away. I have a fenced back yard that can ensure the safety of you fur babies while they are out an about doing their business. My Dog Cooper gets along really well with other dogs and loves to play! Your fur babies will have time inside and also time out side. I will require a crate for the night when its bed time as i dont want the dogs out and about while my family sleeps. Overall I will take care of your babies as if they are my own and love them, play with them ,and have fun with them!

About: I was born and raised with St Bernard’s, Irish Setters and miniature poodles as well mutts, ducks, cats, birds etc. I have continued to have pets in my life through my adulthood. The last of my pack of 5 has now past away. I love dogs so much I volunteer in the pet community and have a non profit to help educate, maintain and build off leash dog parks. Responsible pet ownership is very important to me. As someone who had a pack of 5, all sizes, breds and ages and health, understand the need to have someone you trust care for your pet, at least as good as you would!! Rescue, special needs and seniors have a special place in my heart ❤️🐾 I look forward to meeting you and your fur family!! I have a flexible schedule working remotely from my home. I usually know what I have to be in front of the computer for at least a week in advance and work around where I need to be and when. Because I work remotely I am able to stay with your pet. Let’s set up a meet and greet to get to know each other before you need my services. Your fur family is a priority. I love to share time with your family. If they want to play, or snuggle or just know someone is there. I am flexible. I work remotely the majority of the time giving me the opportunity to be with your pets the majority of the time. I also limit the amount of other families I care for at one time, so I can give more of my attention to your family. I follow your rules, or example allowing them or not on furniture, specific snacks, or okay time routines. If you allow I’d love to snuggle with them through the night in bed with me.

About: Attention to your animals needs, all animals are the most precious especially seniors. I’m comfortable with giving medication, highly communicative and flexible. I know basic grooming skills, most comfortable with any breed. I know how to deal with animals with separation anxiety or anxiety issues. I’m currently a stay at home dog mom & wife. I have plenty of time to care for your fur babies while you are away. I’m available anytime, just have to work around my husbands schedule! But that shouldn’t be an issue. I also have a background working in animal care, I use to work as a kennel technician and also worked under a veterinarian. Before we even book a sitting I love to meet with my clients and fur friends to see if we’re a perfect match. I always like to know what the dog/cat is like so I can build trust more easily

Tammy came by to feed the cats and change their litter boxes while we were away. She was great with the cats, and very respectful of our home while we were away. She did a great job! We would not hesitate to hire her again.

About: I've been around pets my whole life they are the best thing ever created. I've had a 3 dogs and about probably 13 cats in total growing up. Animals are my passion. I've always taken care of my fur babies before myself. When it comes to my fur babies - they have been a part of my life for nearly a decade. Whether its my own, families, or friends - I'm always striving to offer my attention and care to making sure our four legged friends are not only taken care of but shown love. I'm blessed that I routinely get to balance my week by reducing the burden on pet parents seeing more of my furry friends! I live in a house with a fenced in back yard and a cat that is a sweetheart. I treat other people's pet like my own.

She did a late night and short notice drop in for my boy who was barking and having anxiety and our friend was unreachable. She helped him even tho he was scared since he hadn’t meet her, but she took time and he went to her so well and calmed him down. Even tho I wasn’t there, I saw how sweet and patient she was with him on the camera and I just knew she was great with our boy and pets in general! She saved us a ton of stress! ❤️ definitely will ask her to help in the future and recommend to others.

About: I have taken care of dogs of all breeds, from Great Danes and Mastiffs, to chihuahuas and Teacup poodles. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and medical needs. Whether your dog is a playful puppy, a nervous rescue, or a senior with special care requirements, I know how to meet them where they are—with patience, gentleness, and respect. I’m confident handling medications, monitoring health changes, and responding calmly to emergencies. And yes, I’m fluent in belly rubs, leash manners, and the art of a good treat toss. My training as a veterinary technician adds another layer of confidence and skill. I’m experienced in administering medications, monitoring subtle health changes, and responding calmly to emergencies. Whether your dog needs special care or just a gentle presence while you're away, I offer both professional know-how and genuine affection. Im currently working part time from home, so I will have PLENTY of time to check in on your babies. I’m attuned to their moods, their health, and their quirks—whether it’s a sudden burst of zoomies or a subtle shift in appetite. Throughout the week, I build in time for deep-cleaning, play therapy, and medication routines when needed. I approach each task with intention and honor, recognizing how much trust goes into watching your home and pets. Clean water bowls, fresh bedding, and a tidy environment aren’t just details—they’re part of how I show love. I take pride in creating a space where dogs feel safe, soothed, and seen.

About: I’ve always been an advocate for animals. Their innocence, loyalty, and dedication to humans is unwavering so I try to give them love in return. I just left my 9-5 to per-sue what makes me happy and still make money. Caring for animals will give me the ability to spend more time with mine also. I have 3 dogs in my home so I would care for your pet in your home. Plus I feel that pets are more comfortable in their own homes. I have a live in dog sitter so my pets always have someone with them giving me the time to help other people with their pets.

About: I have my own ESA cat and French Bulldog. I take very well care of my pets and assure you I will take the best care of yours! I love going on walks so adding an animal to that wouldn’t be so bad. I work part time and do this on the side for fun. I keep my space very clean and/or yours and feed and care for the dog or cat per the owners instructions. Every animal owner is different.

About: I am negotiable with pricing depending on needs/location! Please message me! I will respond same day guaranteed. I have had my own fur babies and have taken care of them from as young as I can remember. I have pet sit for friends and family for many many years. I walk, feed, bathe, play, care for, and watch pets at their home. I have four cats and a dog & love them bunches. I treat everyone’s pets as if they were my own. Which means lots of love and snuggles!! I follow instructions very well. I’m always excited to meet fur babies!! I am realtor and have my own set schedule. I am able to drop by anytime of the day and stay for as long as needed! I do not offer housing in my home because I live in a townhome without a fenced in backyard. However, if you have a puppy or kitten (or small animal) I’d be happy to reconsider!! In your home I make sure your animals feel loved and are taken care of. I feed them per your desired amounts and make sure they have fresh water. I play with them to make sure they let some energy loose. I also will take them for walks or play with them outside with toys! I also ALWAYS leave the home as how I found it. Which includes cleaning any messes made. *If you are out of town, I will not do only one drop in per day. I personally feel an animal should have at least two drop ins per day if alone for multiple days. Reasons are: 1. For potty breaks 2. So they are able to stretch 3. So they do not feel any type of separation anxiety, get frustrated, or get scared. (I am willing to reconsider based on certain situations.)

Kayla was amazing! I needed a sitter very last minute and she was perfect. She was prompt in answering the booking request and any messages. She took amazing care of my crazy pups and made sure to keep me updated on how they were doing and made sure everyone ate and went potty. Will 100% be using her again!
