“First time using this app and needed help while we were out of town for Thanksgiving. Bianca came by my house a day early so I could give her a run down and introduce her to the dogs since I was going to be gone by her first visit. She was punctual, sent great pics and went above and beyond each trip. Truly grateful to have someone live my babies like I do during my away trips! Will use again 100%”
About: I've always had a deep love for animals, and caring for pets has been a big part of my life. From dogs and cats to chickens and rabbits, I have experience providing attentive care, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and loved. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, administering medication, or simply offering snuggles, I treat every pet as if they were my own. As a pet-mom to 3 senior dogs, a calico cat as well as chickens, I understand that every pet has unique needs and personalities. I take the time to provide personalized care that keeps tails wagging and purrs coming!! As of right now, I have plenty of availability for petsitting with no other conflicts in my schedule. I am available at short notice as well. I have several unfenced acres for pets to play and explore on! My pets stay on our property but always have leashes for the babies that need it! Our dogs and cat are free to go indoors or outdoors at their leisure. I also have a room available to separate pets if needed. I have the room to bring in crates if your baby uses one.
“Teja was absolutely wonderful with my dogs. She treated them with love and care as if they were her own. I am so grateful for her help. She is very responsible and reliable. I am so thankful for her. She took care of everything that needed to be taken care of and did extra on top of it. She wasn't late and gave me peace of mind while I was on vacation. I had a lot of anxiety about leaving my dogs but Teja really came through for us. She was super friendly and kind to my dogs. She really took a burden off me and I will always be grateful for her assistance. She has great attention to detail. She gave thorough attention to us through the app and our dogs, making sure everything was safe and secure at home. Teja is a very lovely person who truly has a giant heart for doggies! 10/10 Would recommend”
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was about 10, I’m 21 now. My major is Pre-Veterinary because I’ve had a love for animals and dream of being a vet since I was 7. I have a cat of my own, Luna, and she’s my world. I treat her like a baby so I would love to share the same love to your fur babies! I work full-time as a manager at Walmart, and I’m a full time college student (online). I’m pretty fair and understanding with scheduling, as long as you reach out in advance. If my schedule doesn’t fit for you, I do not mind adjusting to accommodate you and your fur babies! I also don’t have an issue with last minute planning, just be mindful of scheduling issues or certain questions I asks in regards of the service you’ve requested! When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, and get plenty of exercise and attention throughout the day. I also monitor their behavior to make sure they are happy, healthy, and not feeling stressed while their owner is away. As well as in a clients home, I respect your space and specific instructions on pet care! Ensuring your pets and home’s safety is never an issue.
About: I focus on making dogs feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while their owners are away. Whether I’m providing drop-in visits, walks, or house sitting, I stick closely to each dog’s normal routine. This can include walks, playtime, feeding schedules, potty breaks, cuddle time, and simply keeping them company so they feel relaxed and secure in their own environment. I’m dependable, attentive, and provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. As a proud dog mom to a husky, caring for dogs is already a big part of my daily life. Beyond caring for my own dog, I’ve helped family and friends by looking after their pets while they travel or have busy schedules. These experiences have taught me how important consistency, patience, and trust are when caring for someone else’s furry family member. I work full-time as a manager, but pet care fits naturally into my routine. I carefully manage my schedule to ensure pets receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they need during my visits. My goal is to provide reliable, loving care and give pet parents peace of mind while they’re away. Because I have a dog at home, I do not offer boarding services. While my husky is friendly, I believe being realistic about the services I can provide helps ensure the best experience and safety for every pet in my care. Dog mom to a husky, caring for dogs is already part of my routine — through walks, care, and helping my family pets feel loved Because of the dog I have at home, I do not offer the boarding service. Although friendly, it just is not a realistic service for me.
“She worked with me with my 3 puppers, and was able to drop in without meeting them ahead and made them feel so safe and happy. One of my little ones has bad anxiety and I’m so grateful to her that she came and saw them in the middle of my long shift and gave them an outside break to play!”
About: Hey! My name is Stefanie and I have been taking care of animals for almost my entire life. I have experience with both cats and dogs and would love to watch your pets for you. I hold myself to the same standards that I would expect from my own pet sitters. I can handle animals of all shapes and sizes, even your giant breeds! I have experience in the veterinary field and have cared for pets with all types of dietary restrictions, medical needs, and temperaments - so if your pet needs some special attention, I'm your gal! I have had dogs for almost my entire life. As a child my family had a Lhasa Apso, and he lived a long and happy life with us. I have had pets of my own since 2014, and all my pups are seniors now - they have a special place in my heart! I also have two sweet young cats and would love to check on your feline kiddos. I am a full time mother so I am readily available for drop in visits, overnights, and walks. Please note that my infant son will be with me during all visits. I will of course assume responsibility for my kiddo being safe around your pets, but please be mindful of your pets' temperament with children when booking! My ideal scenario when caring for your pets is to adopt their current routine - I find that keeps them the happiest while their people are away. I'm happy to visit on whatever schedule is best for you, and I'm happy to do overnights as needed.
About: I have had dogs my entire life, as a four years ago I got an orange cat and could not choose between either for the life of me. I cannot wait to meet and take care of your fur babies :) I am currently in nursing school only taking up 2 to 3 days a week. I am now available for boarding at my home so feel free to look into that as well!! I make sure that the bowls are always full, or their food has been given on time along with medication if needed. I also make sure they are getting as much outside time as they can get.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
