Rebecca did a phenomenal job with my English Bulldog, French Bulldog, and Boston Terrier over the 4th of July Holiday week/weekend. She checked in, sent me updates, and pictures with every visit. She administered medications to all three of my dogs and kept up with the routine care of my English Bulldog’s ears and eyes. Rebecca vacuumed their kennels and large area rug daily. I was very pleased to come home to my house just how I left it.

Jessica is amazing! She is punctual and super nice. Scout immediately took a liking to her and she watched Scout on really short notice when his original sitter was sick. She is great!!

About: Hello, my name is Faith! I grew up around exceptional dogs and lifelong animal care through my mom’s award-winning breeding and show dog business. From puppy care to understanding different temperaments and routines, I’ve had hands-on experience my whole life — giving your dog attentive, knowledgeable, and personalized care in a safe, loving environment. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine because I work a very flexible job just down the street from my home. This allows me to provide consistent attention, potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and plenty of companionship throughout the day. I’m able to easily adjust my schedule to meet each dog’s individual needs, whether that means extra exercise, training reinforcement, cuddle time, or simply making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I care for every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while staying in their familiar home environment. I follow your pet’s normal routine closely — including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, training reinforcement, and plenty of affection — to keep stress low and tails wagging. With my background in dog handling and training, I pay close attention to behavior, safety, and individual needs while also keeping your home clean, respected, and secure. I provide dependable communication, photo updates, and personalized care so you can travel with peace of mind knowing your pet is in experienced, caring hands.

Kara did a wonderful job watching our dog Luna in our home while we were out of town. She was very responsive, sending us daily updates and photos which we loved! And she went above and beyond to make Luna feel comfortable during some over night storms that came through. We will definitely be hiring her again in the future!

About: I am a Veterinary student. I have been working in pet clinics in a while and I know how to get along with most of the dogs. I have reatriced times for job because I have to do homework and other stuff but If we are going to have an appointment, I’ll make sure that your pet is going to be fine. I also have CPR knowledge about animals (not only dogs), so leave your pet to me and I will take care of it. I am also doing a research on dogs life style, so working this job will also give me a chance to do a research and have a good chance of getting my research approved by my college. I am also a Basketball player for my college so I can match intensity with your pet.

I would leave 10 Stars if I could! Elizabeth took amazing care of our three dogs and a cat! After meeting her for the first time I knew she was the person I could trust with my pets. She is professional in all respects. All the dogs reacted calmly when introduced to her. She goes above and beyond what is normally expected. My dogs are very active and require exercise and a lot of attention. Both of those conditionals were met with Elizabeth exercising them twice a day. She is trustworthy, caring, and followed our dog schedule perfectly. Elizabeth showed her ability to handle situations when ants invaded our house. We were able to rid the house of ants with the help of a neighbor and Elizabeth keeping the dogs clear of any toxic over spray. I am so thankful for her taking care of issues when they arise. Communications with Elizabeth were excellent as she was in contact everyday. Upon our return, we found our house clean and devoid of mountains of dog hair. It is so comforting to know you can leave the country and know that your pets are receiving the best care possible. I highly recommend Elizabeth for taking care of any pet.

About: As a dedicated animal lover with over 15 years of experience caring for pets, I provide trustworthy, compassionate, and fun pet care services. I was raised sharing my life with dogs and cats since I was born, and developed a deep understanding of their needs and personalities. I have trained my own dogs in basic commands and am very good at giving pets oral medicine when/if needed. As a volunteer at the Humane Society, I've had the opportunity to work with cats and dogs, helping with daily care, socialization, laundry/cleaning, and enrichment activities. This experience has not only deepened my love for animals but also my skills in animal handling and care. I am an online student and have a pretty flexible schedule, being almost always available for walks, housesitting or visits and in-home boarding, entertainment and cuddling. I care for pets in your home or mine, providing feeding, exercise, playtime, and lots of love. I can tailor my services to meet your pet's individual needs and ensure they feel comfortable and happy while you're away. I live in an appartment within 50 feet from a fenced dog park (it is the area right next to my building).

About: I have had a personal doggy care system for about 6 years. I tend to do a lot of house sitting because I want your animal to feel safe and comfortable in their environment. My business primarily has been through word of mouth but I have taken care of little fur babies from old to young, I also can give meds to any dog, no matter the issues; I’ve worked with epileptic dogs to dogs with heart issues, truly I don’t mind! I’ve worked with anxious dogs/cats to aggressive dogs/cats. I am a dog nanny to my sisters 3 dogs now, they brighten my day, daily! I absolutely love animals and hope to help yours! I work full time from home with a very flexible schedule. I am able to let out/walk your little ones at any and all times of the day. I don’t need much heads up, as long as I can get there, I’m able to stay as long or take them to parks, on car rides, etc. I have a pretty big fenced yard and 3 friendly dogs at home, one small and two medium, all very friendly to keep any fur baby company. I am comfortable house sitting as well, I also can crate if needed. I believe in providing comfort and creating a low stress environment for your baby!

About: I grew up on an acreage in the country and have been surrounded by animals my entire life, from chickens to horses. I’ve always had multiple dogs and cats, and my home was often the place neighbors brought stray or abandoned animals. Many of our pets were adopted from shelters or rescued, which helped build my passion for animal care from a young age. I’ve also helped care for stray cats and participated in TNR (trap-neuter-return) efforts, so I’m very comfortable working with animals of all backgrounds and temperaments. I’m a huge animal lover and advocate, and caring for animals is something I truly enjoy. Currently, I work part-time at Dogger Bark Club, a dog daycare and boarding facility, and at Vintage Heights Veterinary Hospital as a kennel attendant. These roles have given me hands-on experience with dogs and cats in both everyday care and more structured environments. I’m currently in college studying Companion Animal Science with a minor in Business, and I’m passionate about building a career working with animals. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting, and I’m trained in administering medications if needed. With my experience in both a veterinary setting and a daycare environment, I’m confident handling pets of all personalities and needs. I prioritize safety, follow routines closely, and always send updates and photos so you feel at ease. I treat every pet like my own and truly love what I do. I’m currently in college and keep a well-organized schedule, so I only take on bookings I can fully commit to and give your pet my full attention. My availability will also be more open during the summer. I have a flexible but organized schedule and make sure I only accept bookings I can fully commit to. I’m available most evening weekdays and weekends typically anytime. I am still in school but with increased availability during the summer I will be more open! Your pet’s safety and well-being are always my top priority. I take the time to follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any specific instructions you provide. I understand how important consistency is, especially for reducing stress. With my experience working in both a veterinary hospital and a dog daycare/boarding facility, I’m trained to recognize signs of stress, illness, or discomfort and respond appropriately. I’m comfortable administering medications if needed and handling pets of all temperaments safely. I make sure pets are always in a secure environment, whether that means properly leashing dogs, monitoring interactions, or keeping a close eye on their surroundings. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away. Most importantly, I treat every pet like my own—with patience, attention, and genuine care.

About: I treat clients' homes and family members with utmost care and respect, and I love on my pet clients like they are my own. I have nearly a decade of professional sitting experience at all stages of the life cycle, from bottle feeding to end-of-life support. My availability opened up when my beloved cat, Hugo, passed in December 2025. He was my special big boy and my joy; I miss him every day! During the last year of his life, I managed his multiple major health conditions including diabetes, kidney failure, and congestive heart failure. He had chronic urinary issues for his entire life despite prescription diets and various intervention attempts, and thus I was always on the lookout for signs of UTI. My boy was anxious and became notorious at multiple veterinary clinics for getting agitated during his checkups. I am eternally grateful to every person who showed him love and gentleness when his behavior was challenging. I strive to show the same loving care to my clients with the promise that even "difficult" pets will be treated like my absolute favorite creature on earth. Depending on the level of care required, I am comfortable with meeting in person or virtually before the sit. My ability to give medication will vary by the relationship and administration method. I typically ask that I perform an on-site home visit before the sit with any pets needing insulin injections, oral (both pill and liquid) medications, or subcutaneous fluid. As a singer and gig worker, I ensure that flexibility is built into my schedule. I am frequently available during business hours and around holidays! Bringing a sense of security is critical in this work. I have one client who requested a short video of the door being locked each day. I will work with you and make every effort to let you know that your home and/or loved one is in good hands.

Joey is incredible! We were gone for 11 days, and he sent us pictures and updates throughout the whole trip. Our dogs had such a great time, & he took them on so many walks and adventures. He kept such good care of the house while we away. We cannot recommend him enough and I know the dogs will miss him.
