I understand the importance of keeping pets safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine while their owners are away, and I strive to give every dog the attention and care they deserve Home from college for the summer, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability. I can easily work around your needs and provide care whenever it’s needed, whether that’s during the day, evenings, or overnight stays. I’d be happy to take care of your pet and make sure they’re safe, comfortable, and well looked after while you’re away. I make sure every pet I care for feels safe, comfortable, and well looked after while their owner is away. I follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide.

About: Honestly I just love all pets and would love to meet yours. I have about 1 year experience and fairly new to the area but I'm always up for a challenge. Currently working full time overnight at a hotel, I don't mind taking your pets out for walks during the day or even on weekends. When at a client's home I will follow all the guidelines laid out for me, and if need be I can also take some preventative actions to keep your pets safe.

Cailin was the perfect sitter for our puppy, Wrinkles. She sent numerous photo updates throughout the day & was a great communicator. She treated Wrinkles as though she was her own. We will continue to use Cailin & would recommend her to any other pet parent!

About: I have cared for pets that include a wide variety of breeds, sizes, and ages. I supervised my family’s pet rescue which consisted of approximately 20 dogs and 10 cats at any given time. Also, my father owns a dog daycare and pet-sitting business so I have several years of experience both dog walking and sitting. I have tended to and trained dozens of pups throughout my life. I am a full time student pursuing my master’s online. Therefore, I have a very flexible schedule that can easily fit you and your pets needs. I will cater to your specific instructions. Whether it be a pet that requires crating, taking them to the dog park, or administering strict dietary guidelines and medication, I will care for their needs in the same manner that you would! I am also extremely respectful of your space and will make sure I leave your home exactly how I found it.

Kate was amazing. Our dog, Buddy, is a sensitive, anxious fellow and just needs someone to be patient and loving with him and Kate did all that. I feel so comforted knowing we have her in our corner to care for our sweet Buddy in the future. Thank you, Kate!

Randall was wonderful! He was very precise and careful with my dogs schedule. My dog started off shy but quickly adjusted to Randall and was very comfortable. Coming back from my trip I was glad to see everything as I had left. He updated as much as I requested and sent photos so I knew my dog was well taken care of. Would recommend and contact again!

About: NOTE: I am currently only pet and house sitting in client’s homes only, and doing a one week minimum. I am willing to travel for the right sit, so feel free to reach out even if it is outside of my area code :) Hi, I’m Glenna! I’m a registered nurse with many years of experience in women’s health, and I also work part time from home. I’m a single empty nester with time on my hands, and am now enjoying that by traveling to clients homes while they are away or on vacation. I am willing to travel almost anywhere; even a plane ticket away, if the stay requires at least a 2 week or more window of time therefore, don't let distance be a factor in choosing me. Animals have always been a big part of my life. My beloved dog Jax crossed the rainbow bridge last year, and I’m looking for something meaningful to help fill that void. I’ve had pets all of my life and have been dog sitting for years, so caring for animals feels natural and comforting to me. There’s nothing like the love and comfort they give and receive, and I cherish being part of that bond. You can count on me to keep your home in great shape and give your pets the love and attention they deserve while you’re away. I am also happy to do light chores like watering plants, take out trash, pick up mail, etc Even though I only have 3 testimonials on this site, I have been sitting for Trusted HouseSitters for a year now, and have done multiple sits across the country with 5 STAR REVIEWS😊 Please feel free to DM me for more information—thank you! 🫶🏼 I currently work remotely and part time therefore, I have a lot of time and attention to give to your home and fur babies! 😊 I can brush and groom, take walks, go to festivals, feed, give treats and even medications if necessary. (And don’t forget the hugs and kisses) 💋

About: I have a 5 year old husky and pitbull mixed dog named xena as well as a 9 year Old cat named Lilly! I was raised around animals (dogs and cats) we would take litters and rehabilitate them until they were ready to go to their forever homes and we would also rescue cats and dogs and rehabilitate them as well! I am looking to be a full time pet care provider! I only have to take care of my dog as well! I look forward to giving you all the assistance and helping as much as I can! I will ask what your preferences are like times they need to go out or feeding times and keep them plenty of company on my visits and make sure they are greatly taken care of.

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and genuinely love caring for them. I grew up in a homeschooled household with a dog and three cats, so being hands-on with pet care was just part of everyday life. As a kid, I was known around my neighborhood for walking dogs, pet sitting, and helping out wherever I could—even mowing lawns for neighbors—so responsibility and reliability were instilled in me early on. I also spent time working on an alpaca farm, which gave me experience caring for animals with different needs and personalities. In my adult life, I regularly help care for my sister’s three dogs, and since she’s a veterinarian, I’ve learned a lot about animal behavior, health, and proper care through her. I’m also very involved with my two nephews, so patience and attentiveness come naturally to me. One of the most meaningful experiences I’ve had was caring for our family dog, Toby, in his later years. As the youngest, it became my responsibility to make sure he was comfortable, safe, and well cared for as he aged. He lived to be 16, and that experience taught me a lot about compassion, consistency, and the importance of attentive care. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I already structure my days around being consistent, active, and attentive. I’m used to building my schedule around responsibilities, so walks, feeding times, and check-ins feel like a natural part of my day rather than something extra. On a weekly basis, I regularly help care for my sister’s dogs, so I’m already in the rhythm of walking, feeding, and spending quality time with pets. I also keep a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets the time, attention, and care they need without rushing. Overall, I enjoy having pet care as part of my routine—it keeps me active, present, and doing something I genuinely enjoy. I focus on keeping pets comfortable by maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. In a client’s home, I follow all care instructions carefully—feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any specific preferences—so your pet feels safe and stress-free in their own environment. I also make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship, not just the basics. If I’m caring for a pet in my home, I provide a clean, calm, and safe environment where they can relax. I keep a consistent schedule for feeding, walks, and bathroom breaks, and I’m always attentive to their behavior and needs. I make sure they feel included and comfortable, whether that means active play or just relaxing nearby. No matter the setting, my priority is making sure each pet feels secure, cared for, and happy while you’re away.

About: Hi, all! Years of living with and caring for pets and working as a veterinary assistant has led me to be attentive, knowledgeable, and most importantly, so loving to any and all animals. I currently care for a pup, cat and ducks in my life. I intend to care for your pet as if it were my own! I am easy-going, flexible and willing to abide by any reasonable requests in care-taking. This won’t be considered “work” for me. It’s a bonus for the joy of spending time with and caring for animals and helping out pet parents as well :) I hope to meet you and your pet soon! Krista E. As far as my schedule, I am completely open during the daytime. I work evening shifts five days a week, but my schedule changes weekly. For walking: 1-2 walks a day from the hours of 8-3. I can also do night walks on days that I work, outside of the hours of 3-10ish, depending on the day. If I am off, I can walk at any time in the day or evening. I am willing to make multiple visits in a day. For House Drop-Ins: Similar to above, the evening times may vary. For House Sitting: I receive my schedule weekly, so I am available for overnight at least twice a week. However, if consecutive days are needed, I will be available for morning and afternoon care, but will have to leave for work and return afterward at night. Again, this time varies, so it will be either 3-8:30/9ish that I am gone, or 4-10/11ish. I can understand if this is an issue, but am willing to walk during the day, feed, and let out for a potty break as soon as I am able. I do not accept pets in my home because of the other animals already here, but as far as in yours, I am clean, courteous, quiet, respectful, and most importantly, there to keep your pet well-cared for, entertained, and at ease.
