Caitlyn was a life saver! I had to be out of town for work, and my daughter also had to work during the day, Caitlyn was not feeling well and she still came and let my pups out. Without her, they would have been in dire straits. She was absolutely amazing and selfless. Recommend 100%

About: Hi, I’m Vanessa, a pet lover with experience caring for puppies, middle-aged pups, seniors, and cats of all kinds! 🐾 From energetic playtime to structured routines and gentle senior care, I adapt to every stage of your pet’s life. Whether they need exercise, meds, snuggles, or space, I’m here to give them the love and attention they deserve. I treat every pet like family and keep you updated with plenty of pics 📸 and peace of mind. Let’s make your pet’s day paws-itively perfect! Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I work from home, which gives me the flexibility to adjust my schedule around appointments and stays. I’m used to juggling responsibilities- between my own cats and kids in youth sports, I’ve mastered the art of time management and staying on top of routines. Because I already care for animals at home, I understand how important consistency, communication, and attention to detail are. I make caring for each pet part of my day like second nature, always ensuring they get the quality time and attention they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for them in your home or mine, I create a calm, secure, and pet-friendly environment tailored to their needs. I follow routines closely, keep a clean and hazard-free space, and always treat pets with kindness, patience, and respect. I take trust seriously; communicating clearly, sharing regular updates, and making sure you feel confident that your furry friend is in caring, capable hands at all times.

About: We have had two labs throughout our lives and theirs, but after losing our last one we have now been dog sitting for several families. I have had experience fostering as well. I'm excited to get to know your dog! I am newly retired and have a lot of flexibility with my schedule. I can care for dogs throughout the week or weekends and have flexibility with my hours. We have a large yard however it is not fenced in. I would monitor dogs, depending on their independence and use a leash as needed if the dog were in our home. I have experience with different breeds of dogs and larger dogs as well.

About: Hello! My name is Emily and I’m passionate about providing outstanding care for your furry friends! I am reliable, have excellent communication skills, deep sense of responsibility and I’m here to ensure you that your furry friend receives the best care and attention they deserve! I am 30 years old and have owned some sort of pet (dogs, cats, guenia pigs, hermit crabs, hedgehogs and much more) my entire life. I am very comfortable around all animals (breeds and sizes). I can assure you your pet(s) will be treated as if they were my own. I believe in open and honest communication, so you’ll receive updates on your pet while you are gone or for when I pop in to take them for a walk or break. Whether that’s informing you of giving medications, exercise or play time. I’m committed to maintaining their (and your) routines and keeping everyone happy. I am currently working full time but have a rotating schedule each week. Most weeks I have two days off plus the weekends. On my days off I will have plenty of time to tend to your furry friends needs, take them for a walk (or walks) and make sure they get plenty of attention, care and love. I will have time to spend at your home with your furry friend to make sure they are getting the care and love they need while you are away. I love to go on walks and can take your furry friend for a short or long walk or multiple walks a day. I also have a small dog (toy/mini Aussie) that can come play.

About: Every friend or family members cat or dog has connected with me instantly, and I may not have professional pet sitting experience, but I do absolutely love all animals and will do my best to provide comfort for your fur-baby while you're busy. Even my sisters grumpy old boy Dobby loves me (and I love him too ♡). I have my own dog Piper, who is a shih-tzu turning four years old this month. She loves almost all other dogs and cats, and especially loves having new playtime buddies. We have plenty of toys and she is not aggressive when sharing. I do work fulltime with a night shift schedule. I walk and feed my pup before and after work, then we have plenty of playtime when I'm home. I treat pets like I would want to be treated, with love and respect. I give plenty of kisses and pats, and playtime is always a good time if the pet is up for it. I am hyperaware of toxins to dogs and cats, constantly keeping an eye out.

About: 🐾 Loving Pet Sitter with 15 Years of Dog Care Experience 🐶🐱 Hi! My name is Kalli and I’ve been caring for dogs for over 15 years — from playful puppies to sweet seniors. Whether it’s walks, belly rubs, or just keeping them company, I treat every dog like they’re part of my family. I’ve also spent many years watching friends’ cats, so I’m comfortable with feline friends too! I understand how important it is to keep pets happy, safe, and loved while you're away. A lifelong animal lover and part-time pet sitter. I work full-time in radiology three days a week, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for pets on my days off. I have over 15 years of experience caring for dogs, and I’ve also spent many years looking after friends’ cats. Here’s how I ensure a safe environment: ✔ Secure Home Environment: I always double-check doors, gates, and enclosures to prevent any accidental escapes. ✔ Routine and Familiarity: I stick closely to your pet’s usual routine to reduce stress and keep them feeling safe and comfortable. ✔ Health & Emergency Awareness: I’m attentive to any signs of illness or discomfort and know what steps to take in case of emergency. I always have your vet’s contact information on hand just in case. ✔ Communication: I provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and in good hands. I care for each pet as if they were my own and always aim to create a stress-free, safe experience for you and your pet!

15 years of experience

About: 🐾 Loving Pet Sitter with 15 Years of Dog Care Experience 🐶🐱 Hi! My name is Kalli and I’ve been caring for dogs for over 15 years — from playful puppies to sweet seniors. Whether it’s walks, belly rubs, or just keeping them company, I treat every dog like they’re part of my family. I’ve also spent many years watching friends’ cats, so I’m comfortable with feline friends too! I understand how important it is to keep pets happy, safe, and loved while you're away. A lifelong animal lover and part-time pet sitter. I work full-time in radiology three days a week, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for pets on my days off. I have over 15 years of experience caring for dogs, and I’ve also spent many years looking after friends’ cats. Here’s how I ensure a safe environment: ✔ Secure Home Environment: I always double-check doors, gates, and enclosures to prevent any accidental escapes. ✔ Routine and Familiarity: I stick closely to your pet’s usual routine to reduce stress and keep them feeling safe and comfortable. ✔ Health & Emergency Awareness: I’m attentive to any signs of illness or discomfort and know what steps to take in case of emergency. I always have your vet’s contact information on hand just in case. ✔ Communication: I provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and in good hands. I care for each pet as if they were my own and always aim to create a stress-free, safe experience for you and your pet!

Jessica was great she gave awesome updates and had my dog who is terrified of everything warming up to her. I’d highly recommend!
