My dogs absolutely love Eva and her attentiveness. She truly wore my two energetic pups out! Communication was great and it was so comforting knowing my babies were in good care in my absence!

I could not be more pleased with McKenna watching my Lily! She accommodated a last-minute request, and I am so grateful she was available. My Lily can be a handful at times, but she took to McKenna, relaxed, and was a very good girl. I received photos and updates while away, which put me at ease so I could fully enjoy my time away from my fur baby. McKenna is such a lovely, sweet young woman who clearly loves and knows how to care for pets. I felt great having her in my home watching over my sweet, sometimes not-so-sweet, Lily. I would contact McKenna again without hesitation. She is amazing!

About: I've had pets all my life ranging from fish, hamsters, frogs, cats and dogs. They have all taught me appreciation towards companionship and the joys of being a pet owner. I have around 5 years of experience pet sitting for family and friends. I am also an Eagle Scout who loves the outdoors, so taking your dog(s) for a walk or to the park would be my pleasure. I'm currently working part time in the morning of weekdays. I am free to take care of your pets after 12 pm and anytime during the weekends. At home, I take care of my cat Pepe where i attentively pet him when he shows affection. I feed him 3 times a day and clean his litter box everyday. For when i watch your pet, I will love and care for it as if were my own. I have experience caring for and walking dogs in the past 5 years for family, friends and past roomates.

Tina is great with both of the pups especially one of them being a little bit more anxious when we’re not around. Despite a short notice, she managed to accommodate us for a meet and greet beforehand to get to know the pups better!

I picked Jessica to watch my two dogs while I was away on vacation. It was their first time without family watching them, and typically I would be anxious leaving them. But they loved Jessica, and she was so attentive to their needs! She was great with communication and care. 💜

After I leave this review everyone will want to use him and he might not have anytime left for me. LOL Compassionate, intelligent and an obvious animal lover.I don't know what I would have done without his help..... On the morning of my daughters wedding my dog (Marzipan) out of nowhere and right before I had leave,started showing signs of pain and dicomfort. Mike calmed me down and actually took her to the vet for me. Unbelievable. I would never use anyone else. Thank Mike.

About: I grew up in a home filled with animals, which gave me a deep understanding and love for pet care. Over the years, I’ve helped friends and family care for their pets, including dogsitting for my uncle’s dog, who experiences seizures. This experience has made me comfortable handling pets with special needs and providing attentive, compassionate care. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or looking after pets with unique requirements, I treat every animal like my own. I'm currently a server at an Italian restaurant, working part-time, trying to save up money for my college tuition. My availability fluctuates, however I will always find time to care for our furry friends! I have a fenced, nicely sized yard and a quiet, small lab/border collie mixed dog to keep your pups company. I also can provide crates if needed

About: Just know that with me - they will get plenty of cuddles and lots of belly rubs! Dogs are not just our pets I consider them family! I was truly blessed to have taken care of not one but two amazing family members who have since gone to doggy heaven. I had taken care of Scoobs from the day he was born until his very last breath when he was 15 years old so I do have experience with senior dogs. It brightens up my day to see the joy on their face as I walk through the door. I truly have missed that so I can't wait to take care of your fur-baby and I will treasure them and love them as if they were my very own. I am currently on a hybrid schedule with work so my available days to care for your dog would be on Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays. I also do not mind the weekends if I am needed. In your home I will make sure that they are always safe and make sure that they feel truly comfortable with me. I will honestly care for them as if they were my very own.

About: 🐾 Experienced & Compassionate Animal Care with a Healthcare Hero 🤎💯 Hi there! My name is Ivan, and I bring over 15 years of hands on experience caring for beloved pets of all kinds, from playful pups and cuddly cats to exotic reptiles, rodents, birds, and fish. Whether it was caring for my own large animal-loving family’s pets or boarding for extended friends and clients, I’ve built a life around patience, compassion, and responsibility. I’m proud to offer a patient, nurturing, and medically informed approach to pet care. I currently work in healthcare, with a background in hospice care and MRI, along with patient safety, which means I’m naturally calm, attentive, and deeply tuned in to the needs of others, furry, feathered, or scaled. Now that I’m studying full-time from home and my beloved rescue husky Tony Montana has crossed the rainbow bridge, I’ve opened my heart (and my schedule!) to help other families travel stress-free, knowing their pets are loved and safe. I specialize in: • 🐶 Dog sitting & boarding • 🐱 Cat care & boarding • 🐍 Exotics, reptiles, rodents, birds, and fish • 💊 Administering meds & caring for seniors or special-needs pets • 🏡 In-home care or flexible boarding options • ✈️ Helping you travel without guilt or FOMO! Your pets will be treated like family in a secure, nurturing environment. I’m punctual, responsive, and open to negotiation for the right fit. My mission is simple: to offer top-notch, worry-free pet care you can count on. Let’s connect! I’d love to meet your family pet and give you peace of mind while you’re away. 💛 ✨ Genuine reviews and kind referrals mean the world to me. Your pet will be safe here with no other animals to bother them, can crate upon your request. My career in healthcare has taught me the value of patience, attention to detail, and compassionate care, not just for people, but for every living being I encounter. I’ve worked in both hospice and diagnostic imaging environments, where I helped ease patients through some of their most vulnerable moments. That experience has shaped me into a calm, reliable, and nurturing caretaker, someone who understands the importance of safety, comfort, and trust, whether I’m supporting a person or a beloved family pet. After years of dedication to full-time work, I’ve recently shifted my focus to furthering my education through online study. This new chapter has given me the flexibility and time to return to something that has always brought me joy: caring for animals. With my schedule now wide open, I’m able to provide attentive, personalized care through house sitting, pet sitting, drop-in visits, and boarding services. The passing of my senior rescue dog, Tony Montana, was a deeply emotional moment that reminded me just how meaningful the human-animal bond can be. In his honor, I’m now choosing to open my heart and home to help others. Whether you need peace of mind while you’re traveling or consistent, loving support for your pet while you’re away, I’m here, eager, dependable, and ready to serve with the same compassion I brought to healthcare. 🐾 Experienced & Compassionate Animal Care with a Medical Touch 🐾 Hi there!

I have a senior dog friendly cat that minds her business and stays out of everyone’s way. She has been chased by small and big dogs and never became scared or aggressive as they were simply overstimulated and were not allowed to even reach her. So besides a cat thats nowhere to be seen and is unbothered by other cats and dogs, your pet would be spoiled rotten here.

About: My experience with pets stems from growing around them. It was my responsibility to make sure they were upkept. This is why it feels natural for me to include them in my life. I'm currently working from home and would like some pets in the house while I work for emotional support. I treat animals very well and they naturally love my energy. I live in a safe and secure location that is pet friendly. We also have a dog park and plenty of space to take care of your pet.

About: I love cats! I've had cats since I was a baby. I have no problem cleaning litter boxes, playing with your kitties and cleaning up accidents so you have the best time on your trip! I'm working part time right now and not traveling, so pet sitting fits right in! I am typically an early riser and am even able to visit your kitty 2x a day! I treat your pet like my pets. Leave me instructions and I'll follow them. Does your cat love certain toys? Need butt scratches while he eats? Needs a good cuddle before I leave? I got you!

About: I’ve taken care of larger and smaller breeds for the past five years. My friends, family and neighbors rely on me to take good care of their pets! I’m currently not working for the summer so I will have a lot of flexibility in my schedule to play and take care of your pet. I’m not able to care of pets in my home, however I will be able to care for them in your home. This creates a safe and familiar environment for your pup which will allow them to feel more comfortable. If you want them crated I can do that as well.

I’m delighted to recommend Michael as an exceptional pet caregiver. Over the time I’ve known him, I’ve witnessed firsthand how attentive, responsible, and genuinely loving he is with animals. He has pets of his own, and the way he lovingly cares for them—making sure they’re happy, healthy, and well-loved—speaks volumes about his character and dedication. Whether it's keeping up with feeding schedules, regular walks, playtime, or simply spending quiet moments keeping pets company, Michael always goes above and beyond to ensure their well-being and happiness. He treats every animal as if they were part of his own family. If you're looking for someone you can trust with your pet, Michael is the perfect choice. He will not only meet your pet's needs but truly care for them with heart and dedication.

I currently work in healthcare, with a background in hospice care and MRI, along with patient safety, which means I’m naturally calm, attentive, and deeply tuned in to the needs of others, furry, feathered, or scaled. Now that I’m studying full-time from home and my beloved rescue husky Tony Montana has crossed the rainbow bridge, I’ve opened my heart (and my schedule!) to help other families travel stress-free, knowing their pets are loved and safe.

My career in healthcare has taught me the value of patience, attention to detail, and compassionate care, not just for people, but for every living being I encounter. I’ve worked in both hospice and diagnostic imaging environments, where I helped ease patients through some of their most vulnerable moments. That experience has shaped me into a calm, reliable, and nurturing caretaker, someone who understands the importance of safety, comfort, and trust, whether I’m supporting a person or a beloved family pet. After years of dedication to full-time work, I’ve recently shifted my focus to furthering my education through online study. This new chapter has given me the flexibility and time to return to something that has always brought me joy: caring for animals. With my schedule now wide open, I’m able to provide attentive, personalized care through house sitting, pet sitting, drop-in visits, and boarding services. The passing of my senior rescue dog, Tony Montana, was a deeply emotional moment that reminded me just how meaningful the human-animal bond can be. In his honor, I’m now choosing to open my heart and home to help others. Whether you need peace of mind while you’re traveling or consistent, loving support for your pet while you’re away, I’m here, eager, dependable, and ready to serve with the same compassion I brought to healthcare. 🐾 Experienced & Compassionate Animal Care with a Medical Touch 🐾 Hi there! My name is Ivan, and I bring over 15 years of hands on experience caring for beloved pets of all kinds, from playful pups and cuddly cats to exotic reptiles, rodents, birds, and fish. Whether it was caring for my own large animal-loving family’s pets or boarding for extended friends and clients, I’ve built a life around patience, compassion, and responsibility. I’m proud to offer a patient, nurturing, and medically informed approach to pet care. I currently work in healthcare, with a background in hospice care and MRI, along with patient safety, which means I’m naturally calm, attentive, and deeply tuned in to the needs of others, furry, feathered, or scaled. Now that I’m studying full-time from home and my beloved rescue husky Tony Montana has crossed the rainbow bridge, I’ve opened my heart (and my schedule!) to help other families travel stress-free, knowing their pets are loved and safe. I specialize in: • 🐶 Dog sitting & boarding • 🐱 Cat care & boarding • 🐍 Exotics, reptiles, rodents, birds, and fish • 💊 Administering meds & caring for seniors or special-needs pets • 🏡 In-home care or flexible boarding options • ✈️ Helping you travel without guilt or FOMO! Your pets will be treated like family in a secure, nurturing environment. I’m punctual, responsive, and open to negotiation for the right fit. My mission is simple: to offer top-notch, worry-free pet care you can count on. Let’s connect! I’d love to meet your family pet and give you peace of mind while you’re away. 💛 ✨ Genuine reviews and kind referrals mean the world to me. Your pet will be safe here with no other animals to bother them, can crate upon your request. Your pet will be safe here with no other animals to bother them, can crate upon your request. I have a senior dog friendly cat that minds her business and stays out of everyone’s way. She has been chased by small and big dogs and never became scared or aggressive as they were simply overstimulated and were not allowed to even reach her. So besides a cat thats nowhere to be seen and is unbothered by other cats and dogs, your pet would be spoiled rotten here.

Jaelyn is a responsible and affectionate pet care provider, and I heartily recommend her. Her patience, attentiveness, and genuine affection for animals come naturally to her. Jaelyn goes above and beyond to make sure every pet feels safe and cared for, whether that means making sure they are fed properly, getting enough exercise, or just offering them reassuring company. Pets are in the best hands thanks to her dependability and considerate approach, which provide total peace of mind.

My first time using anyone outside of family to care for my dogs and I was thoroughly satisfied with the care Leah provided to my babies. I know they had a great time with her from the pictures and video she sent. Would recommend her to anyone and will definitely use her services moving forward..

About: I love cats! I've had cats since I was a baby. I have no problem cleaning litter boxes, playing with your kitties and cleaning up accidents so you have the best time on your trip! I'm working part time right now and not traveling, so pet sitting fits right in! I am typically an early riser and am even able to visit your kitty 2x a day! I treat your pet like my pets. Leave me instructions and I'll follow them. Does your cat love certain toys? Need butt scratches while he eats? Needs a good cuddle before I leave? I got you!

About: I’ve taken care of larger and smaller breeds for the past five years. My friends, family and neighbors rely on me to take good care of their pets! I’m currently not working for the summer so I will have a lot of flexibility in my schedule to play and take care of your pet. I’m not able to care of pets in my home, however I will be able to care for them in your home. This creates a safe and familiar environment for your pup which will allow them to feel more comfortable. If you want them crated I can do that as well.

Viv is the absolute best. She cared for Blueberry and our home with respect, concern and a level of expertise that was beyond expectation. I am thankful for Viv and the way she has worked with our fur baby and our family. Viv is trustworthy, conscientious and very detail oriented. You will not find a better person to be in your home and with your pet.

Tara is wonderful. She takes great care of our senior dog, sending updates and pictures daily. She also takes incredible care of our home - it is always spotless when we return. She was super flexible when we had to change travel plans last minute. I can’t recommend her enough!
