About: I’ve raised, trained, and dealt with a range of dogs, big, small, young, or old my whole life, and I'm good at adjusting to each dog's proper needs and quirks! I’m a very patient person and like to take time making sure the dog is having a good time, along with making sure my clients feel safe and comfortable leaving their babies in my care! I have five dogs of my own, such as my Shih Tzu and my Dachshund! I’ve owned many big dogs in the past as well and have a wide experience with different dogs and their quirks! I’m currently a full-time college student, and am free throughout the week and can be flexible with most times throughout the day, whether it be early morning or later in the day! I am able to take extra time for your pet if needed, and don’t mind making adjustments if need be! I have raised many dogs, and even rescued loads of animals throughout my life, and have learned how to adjust to dogs needs. I am very patient and enjoy taking my time making sure every pet is comfortable and having fun throughout the walk. I generally like to update often, and make sure both sides are comfortable and feel safe with the care of the dog. Based on your pets reactivity or personality, I will base my bookings off of that to make sure everything is smooth sailing, as I’d never put a dog in harms way!

About: Hello! I’m Keagan and I’d love to take care of your baby! I absolutely love any and all animals. I raised my yellow lab puppy at 14, and my orange crazy cat at 15. I’ve always been around animals, have raised multiple cats and dogs, and love each animal for who they are. Each fur baby is different and deserves to have that understood and respected. I’ve taken care of the sweetest pittie from 9 months to 3 years, an 11 year old boxer, a 9 year old German pointer, and raised my own dachshund mix. And I’ve babysat 4 cats at once! Multiple people have had me watch their animals while they were away, including staying at their house in the process. I like to bring my own treats, so please let me know any favorite brands or dietary restrictions. I would like to meet your furry one before I take care of them so we can become familiar with one another, and to see if we click. Some animals don’t like some people, and that’s ok! I just wouldn’t like to cause your animal stress by taking care of them if they’re not a fan of me for any reason. I’ve RARELY had this happen with any animal, but it does happen to everyone at least once in life. I hope you let me love on your animal as much as I love on mine! I’m currently focusing on being a pet sitter full-time. My priority would be taking care of your animal whenever you need, whether it’s walking your dog or checking on your cat. I would not be able to take care of pets in my home unfortunately. But, I’ll make sure your pet’s needs come first when caring for them in yours. I regularly check food and water first, make sure to follow any instructions, and stay to socialize with them. Even cats! I can absolutely sit in your living room or kitchen for a while to keep your animal company. Sometimes they just need a little more time! I have my phone and plenty of books to keep me entertained if they just want to hang out or, even better, snuggle.

About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life and feel very comfortable around them and very in-tune to their needs. I also worked for Midtown Mutts for a year prior to Covid and going back to school (many of the dogs I walked then are shown in my gallery). Not only do I view pets as family members and a whole lot of fun, I also view them as lifelong friends and would take special care that they are always safe, comfortable, happy, and loved! I am familiar with many different breeds and know what different needs this entitles for each. I am available for specific needs as requested by the owner, such as extra walks or special diets and will respect these. I love to take dogs on runs, to the dog park, or on long hikes if the owner permits. I hope you will consider me for your next dogsitting need! I am currently working from home and self-employed, so I am very flexible with my hours, available nights or weekends if needed, and can work around tricky schedules. I have a daily routine with my own dog and cat, so am very aware of pet routines and their importance. I care for pets by following their established routines as closely as possible and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for in their own environment. I pay close attention to each pet’s individual needs, personality, and energy level, whether that means active play and walks or a quieter, more relaxed approach. In a client’s home, I focus on maintaining consistency—feeding on schedule, refreshing water, administering care as instructed, cleaning litter boxes or pet areas, and providing companionship and enrichment. I respect the home and any specific instructions provided, and I make sure pets get attention, reassurance, and positive interaction while their owners are away. I am attentive to pet behavior and wellbeing, communicate clearly with owners, and will provide updates as requested so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands. My goal is for pets to feel secure and cared for, and for owners to feel peace of mind.

“Cody was absolutely wonderful! He checked in on my cat, Jacki, for a drop-in visit, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. He was caring, reliable, and attentive, and it gave me great peace of mind knowing Jacki was in such good hands. It’s clear that Cody genuinely cares about animals and takes his responsibility seriously. I really appreciate the care and attention he gave Jacki, and I would happily recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter. I would definitely book Cody again! 🐱❤️”

“RJ goes out of his way to make my little senior dog feel cared for and loved. She loves to walk and sniff everything and he allows her to do so. My dog is both blind and deaf so I’m very picky with who I have watch her, but I always feel at ease when I know RJ is watching her. He updates me with photos and messages which is greatly appreciated!”

About: I was previously a professional dog trainer for a year at a facility and plan to make it part of my future! I am now a vet assistant, as I work on finishing my schooling for my certification in vet tech. I have always been very passionate about animals and have many of my own. I have pet sat many friends and neighbors animals over the years doing task such as feeding, bathing, providing stimulation, giving medication, and more. I love to help out any way I can and will ensure your furry companions will always be safe and happy in my care:) I am a full-time dog trainer and have Thursday and Fridays off that I can fully dedicate to your furry friends. I am also available any time after 5 any other day that is available on my calendar. I will ensure all animals will be very closely supervised (even in fenced areas), and attended to however they may need. I will do quick health checks before and after handling the animal.

“Kilani kept me updated with photos and a detailed description of Ginger over 5 days. She troubleshot and fixed an ant problem in Ginger’s food. Ginger is my mom’s cat and they live in the memory care section of an assisted living facility. Kilani seamlessly handled the logistics of getting in and out of both the facility and my mom’s apartment with politeness. She took excellent care of Ginger.”

I’m available on weekends and weekday afternoons, making it easy to provide attentive, reliable care and plenty of playtime. I focus on creating a safe and comfortable environment for every pet.

Lauren was amazing!! My boyfriend and I both had last minute plans/work in which our dog Rusty would be alone for most of the day, and Lauren was happy to book a last minute check in to make sure he had water and a potty break. She also came to meet him a day before to make sure he was comfortable with her (he loved her immediately). She was quick to respond and easy to communicate with, and I’d be more than happy to trust her with my 85lb anxious pup in the future!

Kathleen was fantastic! She came over for a meet and greet before our trip and asked thoughtful questions. Throughout our trip we could tell she really cared about the well-being of our cat and chickens. She even spent extra time just hanging out with our cat to make sure she felt comfy and loved while we were away. She sent detailed reports and lots of photos which is a must! Thank you, Kathleen!

Thank you, Marissa, for watching peach while I was away. Despite the last minute request, she was available and conveniently close by. Since this was the first time having her watch peach, we met beforehand so peach could meet her and I could explain care instructions. I could tell from the photos that peach was happy in her care.
