About: I’m a Registered Nurse with a strong passion for animal care. I have experience working with a wide range of pets, including those with special needs. Whether it's administering medications and injections or simply providing attentive, compassionate care, I’m committed to supporting the health and well-being of your pet, whether they have fur, feathers, or scales.! 🐾💉💖 I work flexible daytime hours Monday through Friday, which allows me to offer early morning check-ins, afternoon walks, and evening care. Please note that Rover’s morning time slot is set from 6:00 AM to 11:00 AM, but I’m specifically available from 6:00 AM to 8:30 AM during weekdays. I’m also available all weekend long to give your pet the attention and care they deserve! I share my home with two senior dogs who enjoy sunbathing and cozy naps, so I understand the importance of meeting each pet’s unique needs. I'm experienced in caring for multiple animals with different routines and preferences, and I make sure every day includes a balance of walks, interactive play, and downtime for cuddles and relaxation. I also have hands-on experience with special needs pets and am comfortable administering medications, including injections. I focus on creating a calm, reassuring environment—especially for animals who may be nervous or require extra care. Whether your dog thrives on long walks, a lively game of fetch, or quiet time on the couch, I’ll tailor their care to match their personality and routine. You can feel confident knowing your pet will be treated with the same attention and affection I give my own.

“Ali looked after our two kitties while we were away on vacation. Great attention to detail, kept us updated on their visits, and very professional. Our cats loved her!! Wouldn’t hesitate to ask Ali to watch our cats in the future ??”


About: I grew up around pets and have always loved animals. I have cared for dogs and cats with special needs. I have cared for senior pets that have difficulty hearing and seeing and young puppies that are barely potty trained. I love caring for all animals and love the difference that every animal brings! Over the summer, I have availability all day on the weekend! During the week, I work part-time at a Physical Therapy clinic. I work 4 hours in the morning on Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. I work 8 hours on Monday and Wednesday but have a lunch break to check in on the pets and let them go potty. Your pets will get lots of love and attention. They will also get physical activity if requested. I understand how important it is to feel confident and secure when someone takes care of your pet and comes into your home. I treat every pet like my own—with love, patience, and close attention to their needs. I also take home security and privacy very seriously. You can count on me to follow any specific instructions you provide, keep your home safe and clean, and always maintain open communication. I aim to ensure you and your pet feel cared for and comfortable.

About: I will care for your pet as if they are my own. Your pet will feel at home and you will be worry free when in need. If you have any concerns or questions, feel free to contact me at any time. I guarantee you that your pet will be in great hands if they are in my hands and will feel loved while away from you too. I live at a pet friendly home where my husband and I will give your pet all the love. Any special requests? Just let me know and we will take care of everything. I just want you and your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while away from each other. Again if you have any concerns, questions, or requests please feel free to contact me! I work from home with the hubby so being here for your pet is not a question! We also have a fenced in dog park next door to us and take our own pup there daily! I have my own pet friendly fur baby (dog) and cats that do have a seperate living space for them in case we need to board a pet that is not used to cats. Me and my husband take our dog to the fenced in dog park next to us to get her zoomies out at 12 everyday and sometimes if necessary we’ll go twice a day. We also will go on daily walks up to 5 times a day so your pup will definitely be able to get some energy out!

About: Hi!! My name is Lauren and I would love to take care of, walk, feed, or just love on your pets (: I currently have a 5 year old pitty mix and a 13 year old chow mix and they are my pride and joy! Growing up I had a family pug, so I have experience with small and large dogs! I currently am open during the week from 6am - 8 am to take care of whatever your needs might be for you and your pets! I plan to only except jobs that will be in the pets owners home, so I would need to know what is best for your home and your neighborhood. As well as how your pet acts / any needs they may have.

“Emily has taken care of our dog for the past few months, sometimes several nights a week while I’ve been at work. I couldn’t say better things about her and her professionalism. She is the best caregiver you could ask for when it comes to your furry friends. I HIGHLY recommend her and her services.”


About: I bring a unique blend of patience, attentiveness, and genuine love for animals that helps me quickly build trust with both pets and their people. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality and needs whether that means keeping a playful pup busy or making sure a senior dog feels safe and comfortable. Here’s a bit about my experience: • Puppy care, leash walking, and reinforcing basic commands • Senior dogs, with gentle handling, slower-paced walks, and medication routines • Special needs pets, providing calm, detail-oriented care • Administering medications (oral, topical, and injectable) • Multi-pet households, managing dynamics so everyone gets love and attention I always prioritize communication I’ll send regular updates and photos so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. I truly treat every animal as if they were my own, creating a calm and loving environment while you’re away. I’m planning to transition out of my hourly job and become a full-time sitter while in school. Balancing classes and work can be a lot, but pet care has always been something that brings me joy and helps me decompress. I carefully plan my schedule to make sure I’m fully present and attentive with every pet I care for. Whether it’s early mornings, evenings, or weekends, I’m committed to providing consistent, loving, and reliable care that fits both your pet’s needs and my routine. I focus on creating a calm, safe, and engaging environment that matches each pet’s routine and comfort level. In my home, I keep things clean, pet-proofed, and stocked with toys, cozy spaces, and outdoor access for breaks and playtime. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions closely feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any specific habits or routines. I make sure pets feel secure and loved, whether they’re in familiar surroundings or visiting mine.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with a soft spot for both dogs and cats — especially the snuggly ones. I have a calm, gentle approach and truly enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. Whether it’s playtime, a peaceful walk, or cozy company while you’re away, I treat every pet like family. I work remote from home so I have plenty of time in my schedule to take care of your pet! My routine is flexible and open to weekday lunch walks, evening play time, or weekend check-ins! I pride myself on the research I’ve done to maintain my pets health and happiness. I will extend that same care and attention to your baby, because they really are like family. While I have routines, I enjoy the spontaneous moments of fun and play with all pets.

“Jenee did an amazing job taking care of our cats. Our Garfield and Morticia were always excited to see her and get pets. Our cats really enjoyed her company. She even went above and beyond to even feed and water the outside feral cats that like to take up residence on our porch. Next time we go out of town we will definitely be more than happy to have Jenee watch our cats. They will be in good hands.”
