About: I grew up pet sitting, now have furbabies of my own, and still can't get enough! Let me care for your pet and consider adding on a photography session or digital art. Examples are on my profile! I work from home, so I have very flexible! My work is on my own schedule, so I can adjust as needed to accommodate your pets needs. I live in a two-story house with a fully fenced (6ft) backyard. We have more than four bedrooms and plenty of space to allow for keeping your pets fully separated from ours if preferred! All doors and gates are kept secure whether boarding, walking, or dropping in! I have my own leash that goes around my waist along with a hand strap for added security. I always check collars/harnesses before leaving the house. Outside time is always monitored!

About: I've lived with cats and dogs all my life and pet sit frequently for friends. I know the stress of being away from your pets and I'd love to provide that peace of mind for you. I'm in between jobs in the film industry so I have lots of time on my hands! Being outside and getting to know each pet's personality is a joy. I love animals at all stages but especially senior pets that may have medical needs or may need extra attention, I'm happy to provide that!

About: Family, friends and neighbors have tristede to feed, watch, and take care of their beloved pets while they're out of town, or when they need a sitter unexpectedly. I have cared for both cats and dogs, and enjoyed spending time with animals. I currently work from home, leaving me with a flexible schedule allowing me to drop-in and check on your pets throughout the day, as well as leaving ample time in the morning and evenings to go for walks! Since I work from home, I am available to offer frequent bathroom breaks, and am available to keep your pets company while they're staying with me.

About: Ever since I can remember, I have always been around and loved animals. Growing up, I was taught how to love and care for animals. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. I currently don’t have any pets so your fur babies will have my undivided attention. I look forward to caring for your fur babies. I currently work from home so I have more than enough free time to tend to your fur baby. The only time I would be away is if I’m running errands or out and about which usually takes me about an hour or two. I live in a pet friendly apartment complex that has a decent sized dog park for your pet to run around and burn some energy. I can crate your pet as needed or let them roam freely upon request. There’s also a large patio for them to relax and enjoy some outside air.

“We had a great dog walking experience with Ivy! She sent photos and updates every day and was very patient with our dog, who can be stubborn on walks! Our dog quickly got comfortable with her. We also appreciated that Ivy is very reliable and responsive. We would love to hire her again in the future!”


About: I love dogs and have had the pleasure of raising three from their puppyhood to the rainbow bridge. I’m experienced in senior care, potty training, oral medication and positive reinforcement training. I’m a pretty active person and enjoy taking long walks with my puppy and shorter, full of sniffing, strolls with my old man. I’ve always had a big heart for animals and tend to love the ones with fun quirks, anxiety, and long stories the best. I’m currently working part-time so I’m usually able to be flexible and my partner works from home. My two dogs and I often take breaks to the park, ride around for fun in the sun, and have playtime inside when it’s icky out. I have two dog friendly pups of my own who love meeting new friends, we have a bit of room to move around inside and a local park to play in. Our dogs are not treat or toy reactive, and are typically overjoyed to have dogs in their space. We have a decent sized living room where we play, cuddle on the floor, and learn fun tricks and because we recently had a puppy (she’s in her terrible twos!) we’re very puppy-proofed!

About: I’ve been taking care of pets for 14 years now, including my own and many friends, neighbors, and family. I work as a veterinarian. I’m willing to bathe your pets in addition to their basic needs. I know how to administer injections and other medications your pet may need. I take my currents pets out 3 times a day, and feed twice daily. I like taking them to parks once to twice a week if the owner is okay with that. I would take them out as many times as you see fit before and after class. If your pet is social they can play with my 7 year old age 9 month old. Both are very dog friendly and easy going. I do request them meeting outside before I bring them in. I do not believe in leaving your pets with mine while I am gone. Therefore the will be seperate when I must leave.

About: I had plenty of dogs growing up and I had always trained them to do simple skills, such as staying still, sitting, and laying down. I also trained my dogs on how to open and close doors using an old jacket I had. Currently, I sit for my sister's two dogs, an Aussie Doodle and a Maltese purebred. I work overnight so I have plenty of time during the day to be with my furry friends :) I love going for walks so I usually walk my cats around my neighborhood, I'd love to go for runs but they don't care to run haha. For my cats, I have gravity feeders for their food and water so they can eat whenever they'd like to. And I scoop their litter every day, and do deep cleans of their litter boxes every week. I take them baths every Friday and I keep on top of their flea medication to ensure their wellness and comfortability. For dogs, I feed them according to their feeding schedules. I take them for walks every 2-4 hours, I'm which I always bring poop bags with me to ensure a clean neighborhood. If needed, I give them baths and any oral medicines that I have been instructed to give to them.

About: I am Veterinary Technician who’s dedicated her life to her passion; Caring for animals! I love creating bonds with every pet I meet!

I am available throughout the week & can walk pets throughout the day (4X daily). I am trained in medicating via subcutaneous injection, transdermal medication, & oral medication.

About: I understand pets need compassion and consistency in order to feel welcomed. Owners also need someone reliable and trustworthy to take care of their pets. Every morning and afternoon I take walks for at least an hour. Physical health and fitness are very important to me. As a community, we have to take care of each other and help each other out, including our furry friends. Even when I'm away, I make time to check in on Theo and Ghost. Something simple as checking food/water, a quick walk, and physical check up of both pets makes sure I don't miss anything new.
