About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was about 8 years old. I love animals of all kinds and as a pet owner know how important pets are to the family and how stressful it can be when being away from them! I work remotely full time 7:30-3:00pm. I have time for short breaks/walks for pets during working hours and evenings after work for lots of play time, walks, etc. I will follow your schedule and routines as you would if you were home with your pets to the best of my ability. I like to know what your typical schedule and pets needs are.
“Kara is a wonderful sitter! She provided pictures and updates while we were away, giving us smiles knowing Ollie was being well taken care of. Our home was left clean and we will definitely book Kara again!”

“We were so happy with the quality of care Elizabeth privided our anxious pup during our first trip away since getting her. She was very respectful of our wishes and went out of her way to cater to Willow's needs, including pretty severe separation anxiety. Elizabeth sent updates frequently and kept Willow occupied, exercised and happy while we were away. As a bonus, we came home to a clean house! We highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a sitter and hope to work with her again in the future.”

“Vincent took great care of our dogs, staying with them in our home at night while we were away. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of a reliable and professional dog sitter.”

“Jesse did an overnight pet sitting service for our 2 1/2 yr old doberman, while my husband and I went out of town. We recommend Jesse's services! Our dog Zeus quickly took to him, and he was dependable and attentive to our dog needs, and we will definitely request his services again.”

About: Animals and nature have been my greatest passion for as long as I can remember. I’ve been exposed to, and well acquainted to a variety of animals, including fish, rodents, reptiles, dogs, cats, horses, chickens, and even a baby squirrel rescue! I am also a volunteer dog walker at my local shelter, which is my therapy and brings me great happiness. I have two dogs of my own that I’ve raised since they were eight weeks old. They are my entire world. I am knowledgeable in basic dog training and obedience, and very observant and understanding of animal behavior. Nothing brings me more joy and happiness in life than being surrounded by the love and purity of animals. I currently have open availability. I have a very flexible and adaptable schedule and I am open to what works best for you and your pets needs. I am with my dogs all day everyday. They get all of my love and attention. I constantly monitor for potential hazards and act accordingly in order to limit any risks. Cleanliness and order is my main priority as I value a clean and tidy home. I have fresh water out all day and I feed them twice a day. My dogs get a specialized high end kibble which I supplement with fresh meat, organ, eggs, fruits, veggies, goats milk, coconut oil, bone broth, salmon oil, turmeric and a daily vitamin. I wash my dogs as needed or every two weeks. I brush their teeth, fur, and clip their nails weekly as well. I only have high quality chew bones and other toys available that don’t pose a risk as my dogs are heavy chewers.
About: Walks every 2-3 hours playtime feedings and bathing if necessary can help with training puppies like potty training or just commands if needed.. will provide the supplies for potty training Pet care fits in well, I don't work and the only time I won't be able to accept a request is if I have a appointment I don't have pets anymore but I used to feed them take on good walks and have play time I live in a gated community so leash will be required unless the owner says it's good with commands
About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and personalitiesfrom playful puppies to senior dogs who need a gentler touch. I currently live with two German Shepherds, so I’m very familiar with high-energy breeds, leash handling, and keeping up with consistent training. I also understand the patience and care that reactive or anxious dogs may need to feel safe. What sets me apart is that I treat every pet as if they were my own. I focus on making sure they get not only exercise and proper care but also attention, love, and enrichment. Whether it’s administering medication, practicing basic training, or providing extra comfort for older pets, I adapt to each dog’s unique needs. Caring for pets is already a natural part of my day since I spend so much time with my own dogs. Adding your furry family member into my routine is easy, I love giving them exercise, attention, and comfort while keeping them safe and happy. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. In my home, I provide a secure, pet-friendly space with plenty of supervision and love. In your home, I follow your routines carefully whether it’s feeding, walks, or medication, so your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for. I also keep you updated with photos and messages for peace of mind.

I've been pet sitting for neighbors since I was 12, and my mom routinely has me take care of her two pups when she is out of town. I recently helped my girlfriend with a pet sitting job and I loved it, and the dog loved me, so that's what brought me here :) I'm currently in between jobs, so I am completely available. I will be out of town September 12th-15th, and this may change soon, but in the meantime time, feel free to reach out for any days needed! I make sure that the dog(s) are fed twice a day, or when requested by the owner, and I am always on top of making sure their water is clean and filled. I will also walk the dogs early in the morning, or later at night, as the pavement can get hot this time of year.
