“Adriana watched my cat Zebra for almost a week. She kept in touch and sent pics/videos, as well as watered my plants and kept an eye on the house. Everything was perfect when I got home. Will certainly use her services again.”
About: For 10 years I have cared for dogs and cats, I love animals and I can take care of them and love them like you. I can take walks daily, play with them, give oral medications and a lot of love. I can also take care of small pets such as birds, rabbits, hamster etc. For me, the most important thing is that you can enjoy your free time and vacation and that you are completely sure that your pet is in a home where they will take care of it and love how you do it, send photos and videos day by day so that you can see your best friend. My main language is Spanish but I can have conversations with you using the translator if that does not bother you 😉 I have the time, and space necessary to take care of your dog or cat or any pet like you would. I am the most time of the day in my house with my little family My house has a wide, fenced and very sure garden where your dog can go out to play, run and do their needs several times a day
“Madison was a careful, consistent and knowledgeable sitter for my cats! Loved how much she knew about cat needs and behaviors, her thorough updates, and her clear love for animals. We’re moving and will miss her!”
“Heather was very sweet and responsive. Lola went up to her right away and seemed to like her. Only reason I didn't give her a full 5 stars was that she did forget to refill Lola's water bowls the first time she went over, but it was her first time watching Lola and she did go right back over when I made her aware. The second day she went over, she did everything perfectly.”
“Victoria was very attentive to all of Peaches’ needs, even though Peaches never showed her mouthy, fuzzy face. My home was very respected and was as if we hadn’t been gone. Victoria went above and beyond by even bringing in our mail and packages. The comfort level and communication was stellar.”
“Super kind and very efficient care taker. Even got our skittish cat to come out of hiding. Will definitely use services again from Josie and highly recommend!”
“"Kristin was absolutely wonderful with our feline family members! We wholeheartedly recommend her for your kitties. She was consistently punctual for feedings and provided engaging, quality playtime. We especially appreciated the daily updates with photos and feedback – her attention to detail truly made all the difference!"”
“Paige did an outstanding job taking care of Sam and Patch. I have developed a trust in her understanding in the care of animals. I enjoyed the daily pictures, comments on their daily experiences and felt confident that my pets were being cared for just like I would care for them as they are my family.”
About: Ever since I was 9, I have taken care of dogs and cats from ranches to homes, and from walks to simple home care visits. I and currently PRN and going to school during the week days, with the PRN my availability may vary but more than likely I am available. My classes are only in the mornings with only one being in the afternoon, which gives me plenty of time with your furry babies. I am a great problem solver and will always work in the best interest of your pet. If I am unsure about anything that can possibly hinder your pet's safety I will always ask you. I want your babies safe and you stress and worry free.
About: I’m a dedicated animal lover who volunteers at a local shelter, so I’ve worked with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I’m experienced with puppies, senior dogs, and pets that need a little extra patience or care. I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and happy. I work mornings and have afternoons free, which I usually spend taking my dog out to explore or volunteering at the local animal shelter. I’d love to use that time to help other pet owners who have tighter schedules feel at ease, knowing their dogs or cats are getting attention, playtime, and lots of love while they’re away. When visiting pets in their home, I make sure they feel safe and comfortable in their own space. I always follow any routines or instructions provided and take the time to build trust, especially with shy or anxious pets. During walks, I prioritize safety using secure leashes, avoiding risky areas, and giving them the exercise and attention they need while staying alert and respectful of their pace and preferences.
“Kristin treated our cats like they were her own! She was super punctual, sent us updates at every visit and was a top notch communicator. She even offered to stop in again should our flight have been delayed. She’s the best and we would trust her to come back again and again!”
About: I managed a pet store for 7 years. Handling dogs helping a groomer. I checked them in for appointments and checked them out for pick ups. Depends on what is needed. I work part time. I also work around my bookings. I’m very flexible. When I dog sit I make it all about the dog and treat them as if they are children. I prefer your home. I care for them by whatever directions or schedule you prefer if there on a routine or not. I love your dogs as if they were mine.
About: I have trained my cat to use the toilet like a human, she is very nice and would love to play with any pets who visit. I look forward to working with any pets you may bring. I am currently between jobs so I am available to play with your pups 24/7 for now, the job I am interested in would be night shift as well so I would be gone whilst they sleep and back for play during the day. I am very loving and careful, I love all animals and have much experience with all sizes and personalities of pups and cats. I will give them all the love and attention they desire.
“She did a great job taking care of our dogs so we could relax and enjoy our trip! I always got updates with photos to see how they were doing. She was also very easy to get ahold of and flexible! Highly recommend!”
About: I have taken care of dogs ever since I was a child. I am new to the area and would love to have some canine warmth in my life. Currently missing my dogs who live with my parents. One is a pure bred border terrier, Sadie, and the other is a mutt from the pound, Charlie. I moved to the area for graduate school. I have classes throughout the week and would be able to care for pets before and after classes. I have another part-time gig as a soccer trainer, which doesn't take up more than 2-3 hours a day. I live in an apartment with a dog park. There are also trails around my complex. I do not have anything like crates or cages in my unit for dogs.
About: I love pet! and I have been spending my life with them since I was young. I have dogs as my pet now and I used to pet cats before, so I don't mind taking care of cats :) I've been with puppies, aging dogs, and disabled dogs. I like teaching some tricks for them! My dogs know how to roll, wait, speak, lay down, and give a hand :D I love to see them well-groomed! so If you want me to make them smell good, I would love to take a bath for them. If your dogs are energetic, I don't mind taking them to do activities, such as running. If your dogs stay overnight with me, I would use them as my bear lol
“I highly recommend Elizabeth as she was quick to respond, punctual, and gave a lot of information on my pet’s report card so that was great feedback to have to help ease my mind about my big dog. I will be using Elizabeth regularly as my pup sitter now 😊”
