About: I've taken care of family pets since I was a teenager. I've had my own dog for 13 years which I am the sole caretaker of. Animals I've had include dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, lizards and frogs. I'd love to meet your pets and help you however I can. I currently work full time remotely and M-F. I have plenty of extra time to help you with pet care especially on the weekends. The weekdays are a little tougher but I can help with early morning or evening care. I care for pets in your home in the matter in which you would. I treat them with respect and provide proper boundaries to keep everyone happy.

“First time using Rover and was so lucky to find Kali! She is a very sweet cat lover who took wonderful care of my 2 cats, our fish and numerous plants for a long vacation. Excellent communication and we received many updates with photos.”

“Liz spent considerable time getting to know my 'scaredy dog'. Without her willingness to move slowly and strategically, I doubt we'd have been successful with getting Sundae to the point where Liz could take care of her overnight. I really appreciate her efforts.”

About: I have well over a decade caring for fur babies! With me, you can trust your babies will be in terrific hands. From growing up with my own pets, and caring for others, I have tons of experience I have dogs, cats, frogs, and fish. My babies are cared for and loved on daily. I am happy to accommodate your pets schedule to keep their routine as close to normal as possible. I understand how stressful it can be having someone care for your pets. At my home, you can have piece of mind that we have a fenced in yard. If caring at your home, I can offer drop in visits, or stay there. Daily check ins will be provided.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats for over six years now. I enjoy what I do. I am a writer but I take time away to spend with animals and nature as much as possible. I love meeting new animals and learning all of their quirks and personalities. I take good pictures for the owners and to document my time with them. I enjoy doing this! Unfortunately my schedule is my own though so I go week to week and don’t typically take on M-F clients every week clients. I work remote with a flexible schedule and I have a lot of free time during the day to do drop in visits and walks. I do not have boarding in my home available at this time. I will adhere to any needs your pet has in your home and ensure they are not stuck in a crate all day.

About: I will care for your dog as if it is my own. Every dog deserves a safe and happy environment and fun experiences too. I started by walking an elderly neighbors dog because I wanted to dog to get a nice walk, and ended up adopting him, though I am the one getting the most out of this arrangement. Very sensitive to changes that effect senior dogs and will gladly accommodate all special requests. In the human health care field and very attuned to special health needs of canines. I am dependable, reliable, caring and willing to go the extra mile for your dog. I coordinate a small neighborhood organization that raises funds on a small scale basis for local cat rescue. I am looking forward for the opportunity to be part of your dog's life.

About: Hi! My name is Emily. I am 18 years old and a huge animal lover! Growing up in a busy household with four siblings, I’m very used to a high-energy environment and know exactly how to stay calm and organized when looking after pets. I love pet sitting because it’s a great way to give dogs and cats the individual attention they need while giving owners peace of mind. Some of my favorite things to do are coaching softball and going to church, so I’m naturally active and love being outdoors for dog walks—but I’m just as happy staying inside to keep a cat company. I currently work part-time, which allows me to easily fit pet care into my weekly routine. I am happy to help with feedings, exercise, litter boxes, and of course, plenty of belly rubs or chin scratches. I’d love to help look after your furry family members! I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize your pets' needs. I am very organized with my weekly planning, so I can easily coordinate feedings, walks, and playtime around my softball coaching and other commitments. I’m happy to work with you to create a consistent routine that ensures your pet feels loved and well-attended while you are away. While I don't have a fenced yard, I am very diligent about keeping dogs securely leashed during all of our outdoor potty breaks and walks. I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of supervised exercise and playtime while staying safe and comfortable in my care.

“Leah is the best! On top of taking care of my skittish and curmudgeonly cats perfectly, she takes the best photos and has a great sense of humor. I would trust her with my kitties again anytime.”

Maura M.

“Having Jacky check on our cat each day was a huge relief for our trip. We got thorough and regular updates with lots of pictures. She was on the lookout for health indicators and clearly cared about our cat very much. Will book again!”

“Laura was great with our dogs. It was a hot day and Laura made sure to not have them over heat. They were very happy and we appreciate the visit”

About: I’m someone who truly loves animals and takes responsibility seriously. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll always do my best to earn that trust. I grew up with a total of five dogs and developed a strong understanding of dogs behavior from an early age. I also completed a two-week training course with my childhood German Shepherd, which helped strengthen both my skills and our bond. I continue to regularly care for my sister’s dog and have built lasting, trusting connections with the many dogs in my life. In my adult years, I’ve become an avid cat lover as well. I’ve cared for several outdoor cats, providing consistent feeding, shelter, and coordinating vet care when needed. Most importantly, I rescued my current cat from the outdoors, and he now lives with me indoors, happy, healthy, and thriving. I would care for every cat in the world if I could! I work from home on my own time so I can come by mostly whenever works for your pets, with flexibility to meet your pet’s needs! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow their established routines to help pets feel comfortable and secure. For dog walks, I provide safe, attentive walks tailored to each dog’s energy level, age, and needs. I make sure dogs get plenty of exercise, bathroom breaks, and positive interaction. During in-home visits, I can handle feeding, fresh water, litter box or yard clean-up, medication administration if needed, and lots of affection and play. I keep a close eye on behavior and well-being and provide updates and photos so owners feel confident their pets are in good hands.
