About: I have over 2 years of experience caring for dogs and cats for friends, family, and neighbors. I recently took care of a 7-month-old British Shorthair for 3 months — everything went smoothly, and the cat stayed happy and healthy under my care. I also have my own 4-month-old British Shorthair kitten and have successfully traveled with her on a plane, so I’m confident handling pets in stressful or unexpected situations. I understand how to keep pets comfortable, safe, and loved, whether at home or on the go. You can count on me to be reliable, patient, and treat your pets like family. I’m available Monday through Friday from 3 PM to 8 PM, and on weekends from 6 AM to 8 PM. My schedule is very consistent, so you can count on me to provide reliable care during these hours. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow their usual routine to help them feel comfortable and stress-free. I make sure they have fresh food and water, clean litter boxes, and plenty of playtime and attention. I also respect your home and keep everything tidy.

About: Hello, I’m an ASU nursing student and manager of a coffee stand. I grew up with dogs, cats, and bunnies. I don’t have my own dog currently as I have a cat and a bunny in my apartment, but I miss spending time and playing with them so I love taking on dog sitting gigs from friends and families! I would love to watch your dog, take them on walks, play with them, and feed them. I will be free over summer aside from my coffee job. I work mostly in the early mornings, but am free after 12pm when I work! I am available on the weekends and weekdays. I value spending time with your fur baby. I will safely follow any rules and expectations you have in your home and make sure your pet is receiving the same love and care as you would give them!

About: I live with a dog so i know the work and love that goes into owning a pet! I’m familiar with feeding, potty breaks, and walking schedules and am fully prepared to know how to care for your animal! I currently work part time tuesday-thursday so friday-monday i can be fully committed to caring for your furry friend! Complete open availability those days so i can be solely committed to your pet! I live in an apartment with my roommates dog and help take care of him and give him potty breaks. We take turns taking him out every 2 hours and take him on walks!

About: I grew up around dogs, cats, cows, horses, birds, and fish and have always been an animal advocate and lover! I have tons of experience to provide the best care possible! Having animals is a great responsibility. Having my own fur baby requires that I fit her into every aspect of my schedule from waking up until going to sleep. I know the importance and responsibility of taking care of animals and this encourages me to take the best care of other’s animals as well. I will spend all the time I can with the animals I care for, ensuring meal times are on time and play time is often!

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my whole life and wouldn’t have it any other way! I now have two cats of my own James and Lyla and love them to pieces! I have pet sat for family, friends and strangers and would love the opportunity to spend time with your loved ones! My schedule is very flexible so I have many opportunities throughout the day to go hangout with your fur babies! As long as you need I’m there! I live in an apartment but do have a dog park across the street from me. But depending on your household and location I’m always happy to do what’s best for your pet and your needs.

JUNJIE M.
“Junjie is truly amazing with animals. She’s responsible, gentle, and always makes sure pets feel comfortable and happy. I’ve seen how much care and attention she puts into every little detail—whether it’s sticking to a feeding schedule, giving plenty of playtime, or just offering a calm and loving presence. Any pet in her care is lucky to have her, and any pet owner can rest easy knowing their furry friend is in great hands.”


Marlee V.
“I’m so grateful to Marlee for taking such excellent care of my dog and cat while I was on vacation. From the moment we met, it was clear that she is a kind and warm-hearted person, and my pets absolutely loved her. When I returned home, both my dog and cat were calm, happy, and very well cared for. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in such loving hands. Marlee did a fantastic job—I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter!”


Alice P.
“Alice is amazing with animals! She’s taken such great care of my dog, Rowan—he absolutely adores her. She’s super responsible, attentive, and loving with both dogs and cats (her own cat is spoiled in the best way). I always feel at ease knowing Rowan is in her hands. She’s the kind of person who genuinely loves animals and treats them like family. I couldn’t recommend her more!”
