“Simply put, Anthony was great. This is my first time using a pet sitter and Anthony took the time to answer all of my questions which really put my mind at ease. My Doberman warmed up to Anthony rather quickly which was evident in the terrifuc reports and photos that Anthony provided after each visit. Thank you, Anthony!”


About: I’ve worked in veterinary medicine as a veterinary assistant and kennel assistant in multiple different offices and shelters for ten years. I also have owned numerous dogs and cats in my lifetime. I have experience with diabetic cats and dogs, and administering medication. There is no dog i cannot medicate when he needs them! I’m a stay at home mom of 1 with two dogs and one cat, so I’m always available. Rain or shine, day or night, I can always pop in on Fido or Fluffy! Unless otherwise discussed with the pet parent, my usual rounds would include cleaning and refilling the water bowl at every visit, feeding at the agreed upon times, bathroom breaks upon my arrival and departure, regardless of the length of my stay, and plenty of loves and scritches for your four legged best friend!

“Emma is great. She truly cares about my dog and doesn't just show up and let him out. She walks him and plays with him too, for the entire booking. She is also very respectful of my house.”


About: I have watched dogs and cats both long term and short term since 2018. From my parents’ pets for a day, to a 4 months house and pet-sitting arrangement in California I have had good experiences caring for animals. I take their care as seriously as I would my own pet, but respect the rules and routines set up by the pet parents. I am currently unemployed outside of this, so I have tons of availability and time to focus on YOUR pets and their needs. I can spend as much or as little time with them as needed. I care for pets based on the instructions of their normal care takers, while focusing on basic care and schedule. It’s important to me that pets feel safe and their routine is not disturbed too much. If allows, I also like to give plenty of pets and cuddles to any animals that’s accept it.

About: I have worked with lots of animals including: dogs, cats, horses, goats, and chickens. I also have experience of giving oral medications and subcutaneous injections. I'm available all day during the weeks, and after 3pm on the weekends to watch and care for your pet. I currently work part time during the day on the weekends. I can care for your animals in their home environment so they feel safe and comfortable and stress free, and recieve lots of love and care that they need!

About: I’ve volunteered at animals shelters for years and fostered cats with medical needs. I love all animals and believe they all deserve the best care! I’m currently working full time, however am available from 4pm-10pm to spend time with your pets during the week. I also may be available in the mornings before 8am if known ahead of time. I can adapt to however you prefer to care for your pets! I currently have a cat who is very friendly towards other animals as well.

About: I’ve had my own dog for 6 years. I had family dogs for most of my life. I’ve also helped take care of many family members and friends pets over the years. I also volunteers with a rescue so I have experience with puppies. I’m a teacher so I will be home full time during the summer for pet sitting. I am also off work every weekend and most holidays. I have a fenced in yard and a dog of my own. I also have 2 cats. My own dog is crate trained so I do have experience. All pets are allowed on the furniture and treated as members of the family.

“Cherie did amazing with my dogs! She was attentive and took care of them while I worked long hour shifts. She made sure to let me know if they pooped or not and if they drank water while she was there. Highly recommend and will be using again!”

Taking care of pets has always been the norm for me, so adding more pets to my schedule would be so fulfilling! Having my services in your own home is the best way to keep your pets calm, safe and worry-free. Everything your pet needs is right there!

About: Dog Lover by Nature, Technician by Trade 🐾💼 Hi! I’m a full-time Piping and Instrumentation Technician at an oil refinery — but my real full-time job is being a proud dog mom to two fluffy Samoyeds who run the house (and my heart). 🐶❄️ When I’m not checking valves and calibrating instruments, I’m happiest covered in dog fur and surrounded by wagging tails. I clock out at 4:30 PM and go straight into dog mode — ready for walks, belly rubs, and all the ear scratches your pup can handle! Weekends and evenings are when I turn my passion for animals into something I can share. Whether your dog needs a stroll, a snuggle, or a buddy while you’re away, I’ll treat them like one of my own. Let me love your dog like I love mine — enthusiastically, responsibly, and with a pocket full of treats. 🐾❤️ • Weekdays: Available after 4:30 PM (Monday–Friday) — perfect for evening walks, cuddles, and dinner-time drop-ins. • Weekends: Full availability (Saturday & Sunday) for all your pet care needs, big or small. How I Care for My Own (Very Spoiled) Pups 🐶💅 Caring for animals isn’t just something I do—it’s part of who I am! At home, I’ve got two fluffy Samoyeds who rule the roost, and I treat them like the royal (and slightly dramatic) snow dogs they are. I’m big on reading body language—every tail flick and side-eye tells a story. I always let the dog come to me first, especially when I’m in their space. It’s their territory, and I fully respect that! My pups eat like allergy-conscious kings: red meat-free kibble (sensitive tummies!), a splash of wet food for excitement, and daily vitamins to keep their coats shiny and their energy high. They get fed twice a day—7:00 AM sharp and 4:30 PM, just like clockwork. I make sure they get out for potty breaks at least 3–4 times a day, and I’m borderline obsessed with checking their water bowls (fluff equals thirst, especially in warm weather). Before I ever leave the house, I always do a quick scan to make sure there’s nothing they can chew, eat, knock over, or mysteriously destroy while I’m gone. Safety first! When I’m caring for someone else’s fur baby, I go by your rules and routines—but I treat them like my own: with love, patience, and the kind of care you’d expect for a four-legged child (because… they are).

About: I was always the go to person for pet sitting in my family. Growing up, we always had at least one dog in the house. And I was fortunate enough to have had one for 16 years. Her name was Bear. She was the best family dog anyone could ask for and I miss her very much. She is the reason I love taking care of animals so much. Recently, I have become very fond of cats and live with 2 of them. They have stolen my heart and take care of them every day. I also have two reptiles which are my whole world. No matter what animal, I would love to take care of them. I’m the sitter for you! I am in between jobs at the moment so my schedule is very flexible right now. I am very open and honest so I’m very willing to for the schedule that’s best for you and your pet! I am not offering services in my home. As much as I would love to, I rent and cannot have a lot of animals staying with me. I’m sorry for the inconvenience!

I work full-time, but would love to help out with dog walking and at-home boarding occasionally. My dogs are both very friendly and would love to have someone to play with every once in a while. I unfortunately do not have a fence, but I have 10 acres for your animals to run on. We additionally do not have children in the house, so no worries for clumsy or bigger dogs.

About: This is my first time applying for a dog sitter but I grew up with German shepherd’s and I’ve always had an unconditional love for animals. I thrive to give your pets the upmost attention and love while their in my care. I currently have a lot of free time day and evening and I’m looking forward to meeting and forming a bond with your pet and giving them the love and and attention they deserve. I will be caring for your pet in the clients home you can trust me to follow any rules and safety regulations you have for your pets.
