About: I took care of my black lab, and then golden retriever when I was growing. People thought I was going to be a vet as I always was around dogs, helping friends with them ( even waking up at 5:30am in college to walk dogs), but ended up being a high school teacher. Would love the opportunity to help you with your dogs where there is a need. I am a high school teacher who has great availability in the summer, and would be happy to work around your schedule in the fall. I am also a Dad of a 5 year old and would be happy to do it in the afternoons in the fall. In caring for them at your home-I would be happy to have your pets do as they normally do. I am happy to walk them in the neighborhood, and run around with them.
About: I am a 4th grade teacher with summers off. I have a passion for walking and dogs. So this is perfect for me! I walk my 90 lb chocolate lab (quite energetic and happy) miles everyday around the neighborhood and hiking trails. He is a pretty reactive dog (all love) so I am skilled in knowing what a dog needs and how they are reacting to the external variables on a walk, and how to react to that. I would love to meet you and your animal best friend! I have the summer off, so I am available this summer. Once school gets back in session, weekend care would also be something I am interested in. I am mainly available for dog walking and/or taking care of your animal in your home. I have helped raise 3 puppies (now big dogs) throughout the past 8 years. I am very well aware of what the animal may need and how to react to that.
About: I am currently getting my bachelor's in animal behavior and care. I've had many species of dog from small to large as well as cats. I love all breeds and I am open minded to all animals. Even the scaly ones. I have 3 cats and a dog with ptsd from their previous owner. I work nights but am more then able to adjust my schedule in order to pet sit. I will still be sure they are fed properly, played with, and taken out as needed. I will ensure your pet is fed, walked, taken out and generally well looked after with lots of playtime. I can work with their dietary schedules and needs as well as their special care.

“Brynn came to walk our pup and he had gotten into the trash and made a mess. She was kind enough to clean it up before leaving. Thank you Brynn!”
About: I have grown up around animals my whole life. I have experience caring for both cats and dogs. I have 3 cats(one special needs) and a giant breed dog! I have experience administering non-injection medication to animals with health issues. I love animals of all sizes! Communication is very important to me and I stay in close contact the entire time I’m caring for your babies! I am unemployed so I have all the time in the world! I may have some random scheduling conflicts but I will always update my schedule to reflect that. I treat them like they are my own! I give them all the loves and care that they need from me while I’m with your little babies!
About: Hi there, fellow pet lovers! I’m Hayley — a lifelong animal enthusiast and proud pet parent. I share my home with three wonderful dogs (two of whom are certified therapy dogs who love visiting nursing homes, hospitals, and schools) and two sweet rescue cats who bring so much joy to our family. Caring for animals is truly my passion. I understand how important it is to feel confident and comfortable when leaving your pets in someone else’s care. That’s why I treat every pet I care for like one of my own — with love, patience, and plenty of attention. You can rest easy knowing your furry family members are safe, happy, and in good hands. I’m flexible and happy to accommodate your pet’s unique needs and routines. Let’s connect! I look forward to meeting you and your furbabies and helping make your time away worry-free. Pet care is a big part of my everyday life! As a proud pet parent to three dogs and two rescue cats, caring for animals is part of my daily routine — from early morning walks and playtime to evening snuggles and feeding. I naturally build pet care into my mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends, which makes it easy for me to provide reliable care for other families’ pets, too. Spending time with animals is something I truly enjoy, so making room in my schedule to care for your pets never feels like a chore — it’s something I look forward to! I’m happy to accommodate your pet’s specific schedule and needs to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I care for pets as if they were my own — with love, attention, and respect for their unique personalities and needs. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special instructions you provide to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playtime, or quiet snuggles, I make sure your pets get plenty of attention and care. I’m also mindful of their environment, keeping things clean, safe, and as close to their normal routine as possible to reduce any stress. Communication is important to me, so I provide regular updates, photos, and messages so you always know how your furbabies are doing. My goal is to give you peace of mind and make sure your pets are well-cared for, loved, and happy.
“Parker was great caring for my dog and very responsible! My dog loves her!!”
About: I have watched dogs for over six years now and have sat with all sizes and ages of dogs!! Baths, walks, feedings, medicine, etc. I have done it all. I love all animals though and will gladly extend my services to cats or any other pets :) I currently work during the evenings Monday-Thursday, and sometimes on the weekends as well. My days are pretty free but my schedule changes often. Please reach out and I’d be happy to make things work! I always make sure to get them exercise and companionship while I am there! I am happy to help out with any related tasks and love spending time with your pets.
About: I’ve worked at quite a few places with dogs! I’ve grown up with dogs and worked with them since I was 16. I treat every dog as if they were my own. I’m incredibly patient, caring, and nurturing. I definitely have a passion for dogs. As of right now, I’m not working. I’m starting CMA classes in September so right now I’m pretty open! Monday-Friday, I can do some Saturdays and Sundays! I’m a momma of 3 fur babies. I have a fenced in yard for them to run around in. However, I do have a dog who doesn’t like other dogs except the ones he lives with so I cannot keep dogs at my house which is why I provide dog walks/ Drop-In Visits !
“Wonderful and friendly will use again”
About: Hi!! My name is Akanksha, from a young age I have been deeply passionate about not just dogs, but all animals! I have four dogs, three back at home and my own dog who I trained from a newborn puppy. She was potty trained within a week! Aside from having my own pets, I frequently take care of my neighbors cats and dogs back at home. Additionally, I have volunteered in multiple animal shelters, currently at anti cruelty! To me, this is more than money, I am trying to be a part of a movement and shift out of neglectful daycare centers by providing my services to provide the best possible care and devotion to your pet! I can’t wait to meet your furry friends! I’m available during scattered times throughout the weeks, and all day during the weekends after 1 pm on Fridays! I’d love to chat more about schedule specifications to create an arrangement that works perfectly for us! I believe that I am a very trustworthy person in the homes of others, I provide the top standard of care for animals! This comes from my genuine love and desire to spend time with animals rather than need for a job. In my home, I wake up and don’t do a thing before my dogs have been let out and fed. My dog gets consistently scheduled at home baths and never misses a grooming session. Additionally I am devoted to walking my dog the proper length of time (30+ minutes) to ensure top health. I use care products such as dental tools and moisturizers for the paws and nose to ensure full safety for all of my pets features and will do the same if wanted for any other animal!

19. Akanksha B.
“Akanksha is an incredible dog sitter who goes above and beyond to ensure every pet in her care feels safe, loved, and well taken care of. She isn't just great with dogs—she truly understands them. She is always attentive and reliable, whether it's making sure they get the right amount of exercise, sticking to their feeding routines, or giving them plenty of affection. I've known Akanksha for years, and her love for animals is unmatched. She cares for her own dog, Billie, and her family's dogs with such devotion—it's more than I've seen from any other pet owner. She doesn't just meet the basic needs of a pet; she does everything in her power to make sure they feel at home while you're away. She also spends her free time volunteering at dog shelters, which shows how deeply she cares about animal welfare. She has experience handling dogs of all temperaments, making even the most anxious pups feel at ease. As an anxious dog owner who doesn't love handing my dogs off to sitters, I never had to worry about leaving them with her because I know they're in the best hands. I would recommend Akanksha to anyone.”

“Does great with our rambunctious dogs. Punctual and pays attention to the quirks of our dogs. 100% recommend!”
