About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong commitment to animals through caring for strays, fostering, and rescuing those in need. I have hands-on experience with pets of all kinds and treat each one with the same love and attention as my own. My passion for animals guides everything I do, creating a safe and caring environment they can feel comfortable in. Pet care is a meaningful part of my daily routine, starting with feeding and checking on local strays each morning and evening to ensure they’re safe and healthy. I make time every day to provide food, water, and any needed care, like basic grooming or medical attention. I also stay connected with my pets back home through regular check-ins with family and help coordinate their care, making sure they’re well-fed, loved, and looked after even when I’m away.

Cats: Maintain a clean litter box, fresh water, and appropriate food tailored to their dietary needs. Offer enrichment with toys, scratching posts, and quiet spaces for rest. Pay attention to their behavior and grooming habits to detect any health concerns early.

About: I have had a dog my entire life, I have cared for puppies and senior dogs. I love dogs and volunteer at the dog shelter twice a week. I work during the week, but my schedule is flexible depending on what I have planned as my job is only part time. Therefore I have a lot of time on my hands. My care depends on what the owner requires. I would make the dog feel comfortable in whatever location they are and follow the instructions given to me by the owner.

About: Over the past few years, I have had over 20 different pets. Whether it was bunnies, reptiles, cats, dogs, I loved and cared for each and every one! I would love to babysit your fur babies! I recently graduated high school and I have full availability! Whether you need me to stay over one night or just to take your baby out, I’m your girl! As a dedicated and experienced pet sitter, my top priority when caring for your pets in your home is their well-being and maintaining their routine.


“Oralee is excellent and patient with my new rescue pup Jasper. Her communication is top notch when she is taking care of him while I’m at work. He is such a sweet shy boy and she has put him at ease on their walks.”


About: Hi there! My name is Mackenzie, and caring for animals has been a lifelong passion of mine. I was raised around both dogs and cats of all ages — from energetic puppies and curious kittens to gentle seniors — and I’ve developed years of hands-on experience with everything from basic training to daily care and affection. I maintain a flexible work schedule, which allows me to provide consistent, attentive, and personalized care for your pets. On my days off, I’m fully available and committed to making sure your furry family members feel safe, comfortable, and loved — whether that’s through daily walks, playtime, feeding, or simply offering companionship. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in yours, my top priority is always safety, comfort, and consistency. I approach every pet with patience and respect, making sure their routines, preferences, and needs are followed closely so they feel secure while you’re away.

About: Ive been taking care of dogs for over 10 years as well as raising a kitten in college. I love spending time with them and making sure theyre taken care of like they are my family and that goes for all animals. Currently working remotely and have plenty of time during the day to take care of your furry companions all day. They will be well taken care of with lots of attention I believe pets do best when theyre in their own environment where they feel safe. I will strive to make sure their daily routine is not interrupted so they have the least amount of stress while you are away from home so you can enjoy your time away and handle what you need to without worrying about your furry family

About: I will love your pet like I love my own. Growing up there has always been a pet in my home, including dogs, a cat, and even a bird, so naturally, I love animals. I enjoy all sizes of pets, dog or cat. I will make sure that your pet is taken care of and played with. I love to walk dogs because it gets both, the dog and I, up and moving and it is always a good time with a dog. I also love to give dogs baths and brush them because they always seem to love it too. I hope your dog will love me just as much as I love them. My number one priority is to make sure your pet is happy, safe, and taken care of. Right now, I work a weird schedule with my job so day time availability changes but I’m always available before and after work on the weekdays. Weekends differ just depending on my plans. :) I have been a dog and cat sitter multiple times in others homes. I make sure all of the pets needs are taken care of including feeding, watering, letting out, crating, etc. I am also careful to not mess anything up inside or outside the home

About: Am i a crazy cat lady? Maybe. Do I want to pet all the puppers? Possibly. I have had cats and dogs my entire life, many adopted strays, ferals, and fosters (cats and dogs). My current clowder consists of four cats. I am pretty flexible and typically available to care for your pets while you are at the office, out for the evening, or enjoying a weekend getaway. Having recently moved to South Carolina my four cats are in my home out of state with family until I buy a house here. I miss my furry companions and look forward to befriending yours. A little about some of recent challenges I've worked through with my pets: While I only have my four cats currently, I recently had a fifth cat and beagle cross the rainbow bridge. Both were adoptions who came to me with health issues. I got Maggie, my beagle, when she was eight. She had a tumor which caused seizures but lived another 7 happy years with me. Garfield, my cat, was five and came to me with an inoperable hernia, blood disorder, and weighing 25lbs! He was a big boy, but I worked to get him down to a healthy weight of 18 pounds and lived to be 11. Of the four cats I have currently, two were ferals and two were strays. It has taken a lot of work and patience, but all four are docile and fairly trusting of humans.

About: I have been around animals for as long as I can remember. My earliest memories go back to when I was around 2 or 3 years old petting the two cats we had under the dining room table. Later on my family got 4 of the 5 we still have today. I can't imagine life without them. I've had several dogs over the years. Winston, Sticks, and now Scooby & Nevill. My pets are family to me and when I take care of others' pets I treat them with the same respect. I've pet sat off and on for the past few years and I take the well-being of animals very seriously. I have watched over small dogs (pomeranians) and cats. However, I also feel comfortable taking care of larger dogs I have owned and befriended dogs of larger stature/strength in the past. (I had a Black Lab, my sister had a Saint Bernard, and my brother an ~90lb Pit Bull who I was very close with.) Overall the point is that I am very fond of animals and have been taking care of them my whole life. I have a deep love and respect for our furry friends. I am confident in my abilities to provide for their needs.

About: Im staying in South Carolina more now, so I’m back to being available. I mostly stay home building a homestead, so I have some spare time. Prior Air Force medic, for 5 years, and would house, dog, and babysit for fellow members and leadership. Also, was a veterinary assistant for 1.5 years. I own three big dogs, an kitten and a tortoise, but have had the responsibility of caretaking for pets since I was young. I can schedule pretty much at any time and am willing to work longer hours, if it is needed. I am very flexible. I prefer not to drive over 40 minutes to a location for drop ins and walks, but can if you are unable to find another sitter closer to your location. I do not allow others pets in my own home due to two of my rescue dogs taking a long time to be comfortable around other dogs. I pay very close attention to the slightest changes in a pets mood and can be very reactive in an emergency situation, if it occurs. I am responsible on walks, I will keep your baby safe and not allow others to interfere with them. I will respect your rules and training that you have for your pet in your home and outside environment.

You will not be disappointed once you book me. My pet car experience and special skills set me apart from other sitters and walkers. Your pet will show the difference once they board or walk with me!

“Marissa was a wonderful, lovely and a sweet sitter for my baby Ace. She went above and beyond the service I requested in order to make sure Ace was happy and comfortable. My dog loves her and enjoyed the time with her and her daughter. She provided me updates every time and kept an excellent communication. I can tell the love she has for animals. I will continue requiring for her services. She demonstrated to be a trustworthy person to trust her with my baby (dog) and the house. Thank you Marissa again!!!!!❤️”


About: I’ve worked in kennel services since I was 15 years old. I have taken care of cats, dogs, reptiles, hamsters and Guinea pigs. Aggressive and non- aggressive. And I have performed many services in the lines of taking them on special instructed activities. I am currently in college online and there are no specific meeting times so I can do it whenever it is convenient and not interfering with pet care When I care for somebody’s lovely animals I followed their specific instructions that they leave. for instance, if they have to go out at certain times every day and the exact time that they get fed and if they play with exact toys etc.

I work Monday-Thursday and am free Friday-Sundays for undived attention for your pets. but can do some after work walks during the week. My dog is with me most times and he loves other dogs and is also great with cats! ( I have 3 cats at home) but should you prefer me leave him at home, that is also okay. I have a crate at home and also a spare bedroom should they need a quiet space as well as big yard (but not fenced so will still have to ve leashed) I can also come to you for day stays which is the preferred method. Depending on the pets demeanor and size, I can pet sit at home (if they are cat friendly) or pet sit in the comfort of your home.
