13. Kristina J.
About: I’ve had pets my entire life - cats, dogs, fish, hamsters, and mice! Whether it be walking the dogs around the block, letting the cats chase some toys, or giving both some head scratches, you can be sure your pet will be well cared for. In addition to a few kitties at home, we also have an elderly blind and deaf dog who consistently reminds us that love and patience is key to giving the best pet care. I work a full time job Mondays, and Thursdays-Saturdays. Sundays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays I am available for all care needs, from home stay to walking services. During my work week, I am available for home stays, and early morning & evening feedings and walks. I am very open to working out a schedule that works well for everyone involved, so please don’t hesitate to reach out to see how I can meet your pet care needs! I will be sure to ask about your house rules with your pets, and follow all your preferences. Walks will only be on owner-approved paths and locations.

“Excellent communication”
15. Hope A.
About: I have experience taking care of and walking my family and friends dogs, and I also have experience doing drop in visits on my friends/family’s cats. I currently work part time, and it’s usually afternoons so I have weekday mornings free to help out with pets! Weekends I am usually not available. I am unable to bring pets to my home for care, as my dad is allergic but I am happy to do dog walking and drop ins. I can feed, entertain, and do any necessary tasks to care for your dog!

18. Maria M.
“Maria is an incredible pet caregiver who’s grown up with dogs her entire life and has a natural gift for understanding and connecting with them. She’s helped care for both of our dogs (a 7-year-old rescue cattle dog and a high-energy Vizsla puppy) and handles each of their needs with patience, love, and skill. Maria is attentive, responsible, and genuinely passionate about animals, always making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. Any pet would be lucky to spend time with her, and I fully trust her to provide thoughtful, reliable care.”
19. Lillian R.
“I've used Lily many times to care for my (typically geriatric) dogs. She has stayed at my house while I was on vacation or just taken them out while I was at work. Lily would often send pictures through out the week to put me at ease knowing they were well cared for. Ricardo, her dog, came to her through rescue and she was nothing but patient and loving towards him and now she has a faithful hiking partner. I will continue to use Lily for any doggie sitting needs I may have in the future.”
20. Erika M.
“If you are looking for a trustworthy and compassionate place for your fur family, look no further than Erika. Her dedication and genuine love of animals exudes, she goes above and beyond to ensure our pets physical and emotional needs are met, from feeding and exercise to playtime and cuddles. Erika treats all like they are part of her own family, providing warm and welcoming environment that makes them feel right at home. She quickly understands needs and personality, as well as taking the time to learn about habits, likes and dislikes, with Erika you will get tailored care to you and your pets needs. Highly recommend!!”
