About: I have grown up with pets most of my life and will love on your fur babies as I loved mine. Puppies to Seniors will be extra spoiled in my care. I am available daily, M-F and some weekends. My schedule can be very flexible. Whether you want me to visit your pet at home for some love or take them out to play and walk, I can help. We currently do not have any pets as we recently lost our 12yr old, Bri. But our fur babes were spoiled. I will respect your rules for your own pet.
“Melissa went far beyond expectations! She came to my home a few days before to meet my old puggle and I. Right away, I knew she was the right fit. Warm, friendly, very communicative and understanding of my older dog and patient with his little quirks. After talking and showing her around, I had no hesitation trusting Melissa with my home and my little world with 4 paws. She sent messages with photos letting me know she was handling his separation anxiety with patience, some humor and of course, treats! She is a true animal lover with a lot of knowledge of different breeds and older dog behaviors. I would highly recommend Melissa! Kind, dependable, responsible and overall really good person! It’s not easy for me to leave my little old man, even for one night, but will not hesitate to hire her again. Thank you Melissa! Brutus adored you.”

About: I've been and animal lover since day one! for eight years, i cared for my family dog as the primary caretaker, and since then I've become the go-to pet sitter for friends and family. From playful pups to cozy cats, giving pets loving, reliable care has always come naturally to me. I'm currently in between jobs, living with my parents, as I am taking care of my mom while she is receiving chemo treatment. My availability is very flexible and will try to make it work with you and your adorable fur babies! Safety and trust come first. I create a safe, calm environment where pets can relax and be themselves. Whether in my home or yours, I follow their routine, monitor them closely, and make sure every meal, walk, and cuddle happens with care.
About: I’ve worked with dogs for the past 7 years of my career. Have done dog sitting for the last 4 years. My current job is with animals. Can’t wait to meet your fur babies! I work full time but have one day off a week and have weekends off. Will stay in your house and can take them hiking or for walks. I prefer to care for your pets in your home where they are most comfortable in their environment. Take them for walks and play with them however they like.

“Eric was a great sitter for our two dogs at our home. He was very responsive, sent pictures while we were away and flexible with our requests. I look forward to using Eric again!”

About: I have 24 hour pets access it’s hard to transport pets across the United States and take care of the pets needs and make sure that they stay healthy and well take care of them I work for 10 hour days and they’re basically all evening shift times until early in the morning, but I have three days off during the week time to help take care of your animals and pets I took care of my pets like they’re my own kids. I have freshwater and fresh food that I will give them every day. Play with him. Make him feel welcomed take him out to the bathroom at least as much as they need to go outside to go to the bathroom, specially the dogs, the cats I have plenty of kitty litter and pans to take care of, and I will not let him outside
“Alex is absolutely wonderful!! Met with her twice before her 10 day stay here. We went over everything and wrote her notes for reminders. Communication was awesome! I received pictures of the critters, and we messaged 1 or 2 times a day. Asked her to keep the house as it was and it looked great plus the yard was spotless.. she even made cat toys, but the dogs seem to like them more! All around a great experience with Alex! I already have her booked in January!”
