About: I have over 12 years of hands on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I provide feeding, walks, drop in visits, playtime, enrichment, and medication administration with patience and care. I grew up with two Dachshunds and two Border Collies, which gave me experience with both energetic working dogs and smaller companion breeds. I’ve cared for dogs ranging from pugs to Bernese Mountain Dogs, as well as young cats, senior cats, and foster cats preparing for their forever homes. What sets me apart is my calm, structured, and dependable approach. I understand how important routines are for pets and work hard to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m also clean, tidy, respectful in clients’ homes, and committed to providing trustworthy care you can rely on. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and maintaining consistent care schedules. I am a teacher with the summers off. I prioritize reliability, communication, and routine so pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I’m flexible with walks, drop ins, and feeding schedules. I make sure each pet gets individual attention, exercise, affection, and care based on their specific needs and energy level. I always prioritize safety, comfort, and consistency when caring for pets in a client’s home. I carefully follow feeding instructions, medication schedules, walking routines, and any household rules to keep pets comfortable. I pay close attention to pets’ behavior so I can respond calmly and appropriately to their needs. I keep homes clean and tidy, ensure doors and gates are secure. Building trust with both pets and owners is extremely important to me, and I treat every animal with patience, kindness, and respect.
“This was our first time using Rover and Emily exceeded our expectations (and then some!). She was super responsive, came to visit our high energy puppy before a week of walks, and very communicative with pictures and messages. Our puppy clearly adored her. I’d trust her with any dog and look forward to booking her again!”

About: I've had at least one dog in my house since I was in first grade. My first dog is no longer with us however, I currently have a 9-year-old black lab and a 7-month-old silver lab. My dogs love to go on hiking trails, and with your permission, I can also take your dog to new locations. I unfortunately don't have experience with other people's dogs except for friends and family. I'm currently working part-time, so I'm very flexible with times. I will put my dogs' needs first, however, making sure I have time to give them the exercise and attention they deserve. My dogs are my best friends. I always show love and respect towards them. I also understand how a dog's life can be boring sometimes. Giving them a new environment to sniff out creates a happy and exhausted pup. I try to take my older dog on a new walk/hike every week to give them an adventure and something to look forward to. I'm hoping to provide the same for your dogs. I am also a runner, so I wouldn't mind running alongside your dog. Walking/hiking/running, whatever you prefer.
About: I grew up on a farm and have raised puppies, kittens, cats, and dogs my whole life. I recently lost my elder dog, so I’m happy to spend time with yours. Looking forward to spending time, walking and playing with your dog, cat, kitten or puppy. I work part time so I’m very flexible and active! I am available to stay with your pet, and give them exercise and lots of attention needed to keep them happy! I am familiar with picky eaters and administering medication if needed.

“My typically timid Leo warmed up to Alex within minutes and only briefly hesitated before trotting off for their first walk together. Alex was wonderful and reassuring to him.”


“Kaylee was so wonderful with Bentley. He suffers from separation anxiety and this was the first time I’ve come home with him by himself and he was calm and happy. No signs of anxiety. Very thankful we found Kaylee to help us on my extra long days.”


“Highly recommend Lauren! She's been walking Ren for a few weeks now and he looks forward to her arrival each week. Lauren also always makes time to say a quick hello to my older dog as well, who doesn't need the extra walk like Ren does, but LOVES the extra attention.”

About: Hi there! I’ve taken care of dogs since a very young age. I began professionally sitting about 4 years ago now. I have experience with all breeds of dogs, from English Mastiffs to Cockapoo’s. I have references from families I have sat for outside of this app, so feel free to ask for those if you’d like. Aside from sitting and dog walking, I am willing to provide other tasks around your home if needed while you are away. I have a very flexible schedule so I have plenty of time to devote to caring for your fur babies when needed! Because of my flexible schedule, I can provide stability to your pups already established day to day schedule. While taking care of your fur baby, I always ensure to follow care directions to the T so your pet is as comfortable as possible while you are away.

“Gabriela got along well with my dogs but I never received any information or photos from her during the entire time she was dog sitting. When I asked her, she said everything was fine. When I asked her to send photos and mentioned that I hadn't received anything, she said she was under a lot of personal stress. Everyone goes through bad times and I hope she's okay.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of different breeds since I was 15. I have experience in feeding, walking, playtime, and anything that helps keep them in their normal routine. Neighbors, family members, and friends have trusted me with their fur babies. I even still care for my neighbors sweet dog, Molly, from time to time when they are away. Caring for animals is very rewarding for me because I love seeing how quickly they react to patience and kindness. It feels meaningful to know that I’m improving their day-to-day comfort and happiness while their owner is away. I’m currently in college (off for the summer) so I’m available whenever you need me to care for your fur babies. Im available for walks any time and will gladly make home visits when needed. I understand that safety is one of the most important factors in caring for animals. I will always respect a client’s home and only do what is instructed of me. At my home, I have a large fenced in backyard my own dog loves!

I can try to fit in same day requests, but I do work and cannot always guarantee same day appointments. I’d care for your pet like they were my own! With love affection and patience. I understand every pet is different and they all require different care. Whether it’s walks, just hanging out with them at home, playing in the yard or cleaning up after them.
About: I got my first puppy when I was 8 years old, and ever since then I have always had an animal by my side. From cats to dogs to even ducks and chickens! I love them all! I have done my best to master the art of giving cats medication( which is no easy task) and have become and expert in hiding pills in cheese for our dogs! I would love to help take care of your fur babies! I’m currently a stay at home mom for my two little girls so my schedule is generally wide open besides the frequent trips to the playground! I have two dogs myself, and we can take long walks on the near by trail or around the neighborhood! Also have an extra crate if need be
