About: Hi! I’m a part-time student with a lifelong passion for dogs, and I'm so excited to take care of your fur baby. I grew up around large breeds like Cane Corsos and Pit Bulls, so I’m completely comfortable and confident handling dogs of all sizes—from small pups to big breeds. I’m also happy to help with basic obedience training and can safely administer any required medications. I have a 4-year-old Goldendoodle named Koda who loves active days, and I’m always eager to take dogs on fun, refreshing walks to local parks. Whether your dog needs energetic exercise, gentle reinforcement of good habits, or precise daily care, I’ll treat them with the love and attention they deserve! As a part-time student, my schedule is flexible, giving me plenty of time to focus on your pet. I organize my day around their normal routine—ensuring timely feedings, medication, potty breaks, play sessions, and park walks so they feel comfortable and well cared for. I prioritize a secure, attentive, and stress-free environment for your pet, whether I'm caring for them in your home or on walks. I’m comfortable managing dogs of all sizes and energy levels, and I always send frequent photo and video updates so you have total peace of mind while you're away.
About: I have cared for pets since I was 7 years old! I currently share my home with two kitties and three dogs. I also have some experience with smaller animals, I've had three Syrian hamsters in the past and have cared of guinea pigs and rabbits in a shelter setting. I've even cared for pigs, goats, and horses before! For my professional credentials, I've worked in animal care for a combined five years. I have cared for hundreds of animals in animal shelter and veterinary clinic settings. From shy and fearful dogs to feral cats, to kittens and puppies, to senior animals. I have cared for animals that need medications and/or special diets. I have experience with leash and barrier reactive dogs, exuberant canines, and leash biters. I have completed dog handling in a shelter and feral and fractious cat handling courses through Maddie's University. And I've assisted in moderating 10-15+ dogs in play groups before! Through these experiences I've become proficient in understanding animal body language, able to identify a variety of possible health issues, and learned how to best keep animals safe and happy. All in all I believe my varied experiences with animals professionally and personally will allow me to provide great care to your pet! This is my primary source of income at this time! So my schedule is very flexible. Just reach out and we can work something together. I understand that safety is number one with pets! I will always respect your pets' boundaries. And I want to work with you, the pet parent, to understand your pets' habits, preferences, and any allergies or health issues.
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was in middle school starting with my own dogs. I eventually started volunteering at shelters which lead to working at shelters, rescues, and animal hospitals/ clinics. I can train dogs in basic skills such as “sit” or “paw.” I currently take care of my senior dog and young pup. I worked in a dog daycare of about 25-35 dogs per group and remembered everyone’s name as well as their personalities, likes and dislikes! I am an all around animal lover! I have plenty of time to play and take care of your pups! I have a business on the side so I have a lot of open availability. I am open to taking your pets to parks or even playing with them in the comfort of their own home. I love cuddling with pets or even just being in the same room if they are not so cuddly.
About: Hello, I'm Katie! I helped my mom run a cat rescue for over 8 years (that includes waking up every 2 hours to bottle feed, giving medication, handling moody kitties, cleaning up constant messes, etc). Since then, I've been trusted to pet sit for friends, coworkers, and family members. I have slightly more experience house sitting with cats than dogs, but I love all pets equally and would be so happy to meet them! I offer overnight stays/house sitting, drop-ins, and dog walking. I am currently pet sitting full time. I am available on weekdays and weekends however early or late as needed, and for as many drop-ins as needed. My schedule is very flexible! The care and safety of your pet is the most important thing to me. I make sure to keep human food out of reach along with plastic bags, cords, or other potentially harmful items. I always try to keep pets entertained, happy, and out of trouble. I am a very clean person and will never leave a mess behind, I can assure your home will be well looked after. I can provide photo or text updates as often as needed!
“Iman was wonderful! I have never left my dogs before but had to in order to move. She was patient, truthful, transparent about her services, and most importantly KIND. I was a mess and she talked me through all the changes and what she thought was best for my animals. She was very professional when she met them and when we walked them. She came at all of her scheduled visits and spent time with them even sending me photos to keep me calm. Most importantly, the last photo she sent me of my little, old lady, I could tell that Leela was sad to see her new friend go. She really did a great job caring for my babies and even left me samples of her dog food. I will definitely use her again and highly recommend!!!”
“Tasha is very responsible and reliable. I appreciate her communication. She sends pics and I really like the map of the dogs walks. She is respectful of my requests and my home.”

I am currently a full time college student so will have time to take care of your pet before, after, and in between my classes. My weekends are pretty free. I have a fenced in backyard along with one dog (king charles spaniel). He is very friendly but can stay separate if need be. I have four cats that are used to other animals with my fostering experience. They will stay away from dogs or can be in the basement.

“Gillian communicates well and answers my messages in a timely fashion. She is on time for her visits. My pup Ransom is usually hesitant the first few times around a new sitter, but warmed to Gillian and went on a walk with her no problem. Thank you.”
About: I’m fortunate to have experience with a wide variety of animals thanks to my cousins, who have two cats, three dogs, a turtle, and a horse. I help care for their pets regularly, so I’m comfortable meeting the unique needs of animals of all kinds and treating each one like family. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I’m currently finishing up breast cancer treatment and have intentionally chosen pet sitting as my primary work. This gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I truly enjoy spending time with animals, and being able to provide reliable, loving care while I’m in this season of life has been incredibly rewarding. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible. At my home, pets have access to a securely fenced backyard for supervised play, exercise, and potty breaks, along with plenty of attention, affection, and a comfortable place to relax. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s established schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any other care instructions. My goal is always to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away.

I have many experiences with caring for other owners’ fur babies in their home and I’m as respectful as I can be in their houses. I can send many pictures if the client needs them in order to be comfortable.
About: I’ve been around dogs since I was a child and owned a few so nothing really intimidates me about any dog or cat. But personally, I do love cats more. They’re just much more my personality. At the moment, I honestly do not have that much time but if I do have an open day, it’ll be on the weekends and I can move things around pretty flexibly Building trust with any living thing takes time and willingness to meet bumps in the road. I’m committed to making sure your pet and your space are well respected and taken care of.

Whether your dog needs exercise, playtime, or just a little extra attention while you’re away, I treat them like family. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as a stay-at-home mom because I have a flexible schedule and spend most of my day active and organized. I enjoy being around animals, and I have free time during the day that allows me to give pets the attention, exercise, and care they need.
