About: Hey! I’m a 22 year old nurse looking for a side gig and to snuggle with some pets! I’ve had golden retrievers my whole life, and 2 kitties! I’ve had dogs from 2 months-15 years, and cats 6 weeks to 18 years! I will send pictures and updates with every visit, and be respectful of your home. I’d love to help with your furry friends 🤗 I currently work 3, 12 hour night shifts a week, so I’ll have plenty of time to walk and play with your furry friends! I love going on walks, and taking dogs with me makes it so much more fun! I also love cuddling with puppies and kitties, and playing with them in your home!
“Kathy was very responsible and completely reliable. She provided food, water, and litter cleaning twice a day as agreed. She played with my one kitty who does not hide and took really good pictures of him each day. She dealt with some issues promptly and let me know what was happening. Overall, I cannot say enough good things about Kathy. I would be happy to trust her with cat care again at any time.”

About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for all pets and my ability to adapt to their unique needs. I have experience caring for puppies—helping with basic training and socialization—as well as providing gentle, patient care for senior pets who may need extra comfort and attention. I’m attentive, reliable, and communicate openly with pet parents to ensure their pets feel safe, happy, and loved while they’re away. Even with 12-hour workdays, usually Monday through Wednesday, pet care remains a top priority for me. I make sure to give pets plenty of attention and care before and after work on those busy days. On my days off and weekends, which are completely free, I’m fully available to provide extra playtime, walks, and companionship. Spending time with animals is genuinely a joy for me—it’s never a chore, and I’m committed to making sure every pet feels loved and cared for, no matter my schedule. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and familiar environment. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, exercise routines, and behavioral preferences to maintain consistency and reduce stress. I pay close attention to each pet’s mood and body language, responding with extra cuddles, playtime, or space as needed. I also keep the pet’s area clean and tidy—regularly refreshing bedding, toys, and litter boxes or waste areas—to ensure a fresh and comfortable home. I respect the client’s home fully, securing doors and windows and following any house rules. Open communication is important to me: I send regular updates and photos so pet parents feel connected and reassured. My goal is to make both pets and their owners feel confident and comfortable throughout the entire stay.
About: I have experience walking puppies, adults dogs, senior dogs, bonded pairs and yes, even cats! Every animal deserves to be happy and one with nature safely! I can do any evening Monday through Thursday, Friday afternoon and or evening as I only work half days on Fridays and weekends as needed! It’s not my pet nor my house! I will always make sure to not disrupt someone else’s home whether it’s the inside or outside! Pets are family and they deserve the world!
About: I have taken care of dogs for many years ! While I am most experienced with golden retrievers and helped train them for two years, I am comfortable with any and all dog breeds and sizes. Love going on car rides with a dog in my back seat !! Can’t wait to snuggle your furry friend. :) I work night shift at Starbucks, so I am able to pop in most mornings and early afternoons as well as after 9 PM for a late night visit ! If looking for extensive care over a period of time, I am more then willing to request time off specifically for your buddy. I am comfortable with crate trained dogs as well as free roam friends ! I will make sure to clean up after your friend and ensure they are safe and cozy while you’re gone.
About: I’ve been around animals all my life and I feel grateful for it. For years, I’ve been trusted to watch and take care of family and friends’ pets (babies)! I am a college student with classes mid morning. MWF I have 10-11 and TTh 9:30-12:15 so I’m pretty available. I want to be a comfortable / trusted person with your pets and also getting a dose of furry friends while I’m away at school. I can meet whatever needs makes you and your pets comfortable. If there are any specifics of care your pets require, I want to help.
“Rickie did such a good job taking care of our little Gizmo and Arthur! She made sure to follow our admittedly complicated feeding instructions as each of our cats have specific dietary needs. On top of this, she made sure to spend some quality time with our little ones to ensure they were not lonely while we were away. I can't recommend her enough, and we will definitely be using her services again in the future.”

“Brandon is very attentive and plays well with my pup. He pays attention to details and makes sure my puppy has everything he needs to remain comfortable. Great dog walker and pet sitter, highly recommend him for service to your pets!”

About: Growing up we always had both a dog and a cat in the home. I genuinely love dogs of all types however have experience caring for cats as well! I do work full time Monday through Friday. My job keeps me busy however I would not accept pet care that I was not for sure able to fit into my schedule. Primarily available evenings and weekends for that reason. I am attentive and loving to pets! I enjoy walking and playing with pups of all sizes and spending time with them! Dog cuddles are the best!
About: I’ve have experience with puppies and senior dogs for 10+ years. In addition to dogs, I’ve lived on a farm for 10 years. Animal care is my number one priority. I always have free time in the mornings, afternoons, and evenings to check in and play with your dog. I can also make time to stop by more often if need be. With having my own pets, I understand what it takes to provide proper care on a daily and weekly basis. I will take care of your dog as if it were my own.
About: I have taken care of all sorts of animals growing up. I have experience with all age ranges and breeds of dogs, as well as cats and lizards. I'm good with any challenges that come! I currently own two cats myself:) I am currently working part time at a restaurant and can work my schedule around what you need if brought up a week in advance:) In my home I am used to getting animals in crates, on leashes or just out in the backyard if that's what you need. I will take time with the animals that need help or time with certain things!
About: I have been taking care of animals for years now. I have always had animals my whole life. I had a dog when I was little and took him for walks all the time and play with him. I have a cat right now and he’s well taken care of it! I’m working full time until 5 but I’m off on the weekends so I can take care of your animals whenever I can help out! I have a fenced yard so the dogs can go outside and get some fresh air and I can also take them for walks and play with them.
About: I’ve taken care of animals since as long as I can remember. I, myself, have six Golden Retrievers (yes, six) and four birds! I’ve pet sat family & friends animals, ranging from dogs to cats to birds and even reptiles and arthropods. I am comfortable with giving animals daily medications they need! I am a full-time college student who works a part-time job. It’s winter break, and I am more available more often! I will easily be able to go from my part-time to your pet(s)! I have a fenced in backyard, myself, but with the amount of dogs I have, I would prefer watching the dog at your residence. I am comfortable walking dogs, and if it’s comfortable with you I would love to hike with them as well!
About: My husband and I have raised kittens and puppies for the past 20+ years. Our children all have had jobs pet sitting for multiple people. Our family honestly just loves animals, so we figured why not earn some extra money to put towards family getaways, doing what we love. Plus it gives us a chance to do something together! Between myself and the 5 other family members in my home, we can figure out a way to accommodate the needs for your pet. Plus most of us drive so we can provide transport or easily come to you:) We have a large yard for your pet to play, and a great neighborhood with side walks to take for walks. We love playing with animals and cuddles, but we also have enough space in our home if you’d like your pet more secluded.
