About: I’ve been taking care of different pets since the age of 11. I have been trusted by more than 10 different families to take care of their pets. I am currently doing online school so I have plenty of free time to take care of everyone’s lovely pets during any weekday and any weekend. I have 1 fur baby. She often loves playing outside for hours on end. I have plenty of toys, plenty of fence for her to run around, and a wonderful environment for her.

About: I was given my first pup when I was just 1 year old. We've always had dogs in our family and I've owned my own dogs in my own home for the last 11 years. I currently work Mon-Fri, 8am-430pm. I'd be able to do before and after care during the week. My availability during the weekends would be much greater including overnights of needed. I have a medium sized fenced in yard, and when the weather is nice the back door stays open so the pups can come and go as they need. I don't allow collars to be worn inside my home due to the fear of them getting caught on something and hurting themselves.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 10 and have experience with all sizes—from tiny Chihuahuas to big breeds like German Shepherds and Presa Canarios. I’m confident handling high-energy pups, gentle with seniors, and patient with shy or stubborn personalities. Whether your dog needs a long walk, playtime, or meds, I’ve got it covered. I treat every pup like my own and always make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved! 🐾 Mondays & Wednesdays: Evenings after 7 PM 🐾 Tuesdays & Thursdays: Early mornings 🐾 Fridays: Currently unavailable (subject to change) 🐾 Saturdays: Evenings after 5 PM 🐾 Sundays: Available all day I’m happy to work with your schedule when I can, so feel free to reach out with any questions! While I don’t currently offer overnight boarding, I do have a fenced-in backyard where my dogs love to run and play—it’s a great space for safe outdoor time! As for my cat, she’s not a fan of the outdoors, but I still make sure she gets enrichment and movement by taking her on walks when she’s in the mood. I’m all about giving pets what they need to feel happy, safe, and comfortable.

About: I’ve had English Mastiffs, Great Danes, and mixed breeds since I was little, as well as family friends trusting me to watch their babies since I turned 16. I work as a house keeper Monday-Friday, from 8:30 to 2 with a very flexible schedule! I am able to stop by in the middle of the work day if needed for potty breaks I can make sure all dogs are properly supervised, and put away when I leave if needed. As well as playing with them outside and giving medication.

About: I have had dogs my whole life, and also to add a little more I can also take take of horses along with many other animals!!! I currently work part time and attend online college, so as I do my online classes the dogs and I can relax and spend some time together. The animals always come first, if I think they need something such as a new toy they will get it. I love animals more than anything else.

About: I’ve had animals of my own since I was little. Growing up I would often pet sit for family. More recently, I’ve rescued two cats within the past 3 years. They’re my world! I’ve recently started pet sitting for my friend on occasion and wanted to find more pet sitting opportunities because I enjoy it so much! I work from home Monday-Friday 8-5 with a lunch break from 12-1. However, I work at my own pace so I am able to leave if needed. I also work a part time job on the weekends where the hours vary. I’ll always be available after 6pm. I pay close attention to detail specific to each pet since each pet has their own set of needs. I like getting to know their personalities and earning their trust. I understand that pets are an extension of the family and I respect them as such. I also understand the worry of leaving your pets at home and the separation anxiety that pet and owner can experience, so I always offer pictures of your pets so you don’t feel like you’re missing out on much!

Jalin T.
“Jalin is a perfect fit for pet-sitting. He is extremely attentive and does tend to spoil our pets. I recall coming home from our vacation when Jalin was house and pet-sitting. We noticed one of the pets' dog beds moved over near our French doors looking out to our backyard. Putting 2 and 2 together, Jalin moved that bed over where Gracie, our Shih Tzu likes to lay in the sun certain times of the day. Rest assured, your pets will be LOVED, not just attended to by Jalin.”
