About: I was born into a house with 2 cats, and adopted my puppy (who passed away last year) when I was 6. My neighbor is a vet tech with many different animals in house, and has given me lots of help and advice. Last summer I spent a week at my future college beginning my pre-veterinarian training, and am going into the pre-vet program this fall! This is my only job for the summer, so I will be completely committed to caring for your pets for you! I want your pet to enjoy loving quality time no matter what. I am very attentive to pets’ needs, and will be active with them as much as they (and you) wish. Walks, play time, feeding, cleaning, and meds if needed are all happily provided.

“Sarah was absolutely perfect for the weekend that she watched our house and our puppies. She was prompt and provided a lot of communication.”



About: With years of hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs, I’ve developed a deep love and natural intuition for working with animals of all kinds. I’ve provided pet sitting services both locally and out of state, offering dependable and heartfelt care no matter the location. Whether it’s daily drop-ins, overnight stays, or extended visits, I treat every animal like they’re part of my own family. What sets me apart is my unique connection and understanding of animal behavior, needs, and energy. I don’t just “watch” pets—I build trust and comfort with them, creating a calm and loving environment while their people are away. I share my home with two beloved cats who are not only my companions, but also my familiars. They’ve taught me even more about the special bonds animals create with us when treated with respect, kindness, and consistency. Pets bring joy, peace, and magic into my life—and I aim to return the favor every chance I get. a passionate animal lover with years of experience caring for pets of all kinds. I have a fully fenced-in backyard perfect for safe outdoor play, and I’m just a short walk to a local dog park—and only a quick drive from several amazing dog-friendly beaches! Whether you need someone to host your pup, drop in for check-ins and walks, or stay overnight to keep your home and pets cozy and secure, I’ve got you covered. I always ensure that your pets receive plenty of love, attention, and exercise while you're away. Your pets will be treated like family here! I’m a contract worker by trade, which gives me a highly flexible schedule and the ability to be available throughout most parts of the day. Whether your pet needs morning walks, mid-day check-ins, or evening cuddles, I can easily adapt to their routine and provide consistent care and attention when you need it most. I take great care to create a safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment for every pet I watch. All of the cleaners used in my home are pet-safe, and any plants I keep are non-toxic to animals. I know how important it is to maintain trust and clear communication, so I always keep an open dialogue with pet parents—whether it’s about special routines, dietary needs, medication, or just sharing a cute photo update. Your pet’s well-being and your peace of mind are always my top priorities.

“Hannah watched our two large dogs while we were away for the weekend. They were tired and happy when we got home as she ensured lots of exercise and activity. She gave frequent updates!”


“We have a very anxious but very sweet dog. It didn’t take her and Cheyanne to be come great friends. We have had Cheyanne sit twice now and will again soon, she does a great job and our dog love’s it when she comes over.”


“Meredith truly exceeded my expectations! From the moment I reached out to her, she was incredibly responsive and accommodating, even with my last-minute request. She kept me informed with regular updates and photos of my kitty, which put my mind at ease. It's clear that she genuinely cares for animals and takes her responsibilities seriously. I highly recommend Meredith to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive cat sitter.”


About: I grew up with multiple German Sheppards and mixed breed dogs, so I am well versed in cares in regards to feeding, playing, walking, and bathing for dogs. I have house and pet sat for 2-10 days at a time for friends and family throughout years, as they trusted my abilities to care for their fur babies (chickens and Guinea pigs included). I currently have two kittens and feel comfortable caring for any feline friends, as I have quickly been converted to a cat person as well :) I currently work full time from 8am-4pm Monday-Friday. I am available most weekends and can be available during the evenings after work for a walk or check-in! I will never invite others to your home if I am to come care for your pet. I am a stickler for locking doors and ensuring that there are safely hazards around for pets to get into (ex: dangling curtain draw strings)

About: Hello! I’ve had dogs my whole life, and recently i’ve been working to help train my dogs to duck hunt from when they were puppies! I can administer oral medication, pill form or liquid I work full time, but i’m out early enough to spend plenty of time with your furry friends! i’m out at 4pm on weekdays and have weekends off! i’m available everyday:) I can crate if needed, at home my dogs have a perimeter fence so they don’t run off! they are crate trained as well. i give them their medications everyday

About: ’m a reliable pet sitter because I genuinely love animals, follow care instructions closely, and ensure pets feel safe, happy, and loved. You can count on me every time. I am currently searching for a part time job and hoping to do pet sitting more frequently as a side gig! Ill be available any day and any time you feel comfortable! Caring for pets in clients’ homes means following their routine closely, providing love and companionship, and respecting the home. I ensure pets are fed, exercised, and safe, while keeping owners updated and the home tidy.

About: Growing up my family always owned one or two golden retrievers at a time and instantly fell in love with the breed. I worked at a dog boarding/day care facility for about 3 years. I’ve worked with many different types of breeds along with all sorts of temperaments. With that came taking care of dogs of ALL ages. I’ve handled up to 15 large dogs at a time, also handling cats. Absolutely loved my job and hope to continue working with animals:) As of right now my schedule is very flexible. Monday-Friday work great along with most weekends (best to have a few days notice for weekend visits). I also understand how tricky work schedules can be and I would be willing to check in on any times of the day. I was lucky enough to grow up with a mom that did full time pet sitting at one point and got to tag along on all her trips. I also pet sit for family and friends. Including overnights, walks, and administering medications, eye drops, pills, ect. So, I know how important it is to be mindful of someone’s else’s home and their four-legged (sometimes three) loved ones.

“Addyson did a great job. Will use again.”


About: I have been watching animals as wild as huskies for years. I enjoy connecting with animals and taking care of them - they are truly our saviors. I am gig app driver who sets their own schedule. I really have an open schedule for various animal care needs. Also this allows more time with your pets :) I have a fenced in back yard and a safe, clean home. I am very relaxed and easy going person, I will treat your house with respect and care - making no messes.

“Taylor has done an awesome job watching our girls while we're out of town. It's obvious she loves what she does. We will continue to use her services when we need a dog sitter.”


About: I have loved all animals as long as I can remember! My pet care experiences vary from anxious puppies to bearded dragons! I have had successful experiences with rodents such as guinea pigs, dogs, cats, and reptiles. While taking care of your pet I would do my best to provide them with as much love and care as you would! I am currently attending high school but would be able to take care of your pet immediately after that! I could easily fit your animals care into my every day schedule since it is already apart of my daily life! For boarding services, I would do my best to make sure your animal is as comfortable as possible. We all know how stressful sleeping in a new place can be and I would use all of my resources to make sure that your pet would be as pleasant as possible. For other services I would do the same and make sure your animal has a great time with me and would adjust my schedule around their needs.

About: Have raised cats and dogs and love having them around us! They add a special dimension of love to every home. Didn’t like using a kennel to board ever! This is so much better! Ready to shower your fur baby with love! I’m currently retired and just love working with animals part time. Currently I have one wonderful tortoise cat living with us. Have had cats and dogs most of our 43 years of marriage. I can provide whatever services you need in your home or visits to your home. I can also transport a pet in our van to the vet or to a dog park.

About: I’m a dependable and caring local dog lover with years of experience walking, sitting, and spoiling pups of all sizes. Whether your dog needs a brisk walk, cuddles while you’re away, or just a reliable companion, I’m here to help. I treat every pet like family and ensure they feel safe, loved, and well-exercised. I’m self employed and can work from anywhere; I make my own hours and availability. My work seasons ebb and flow, so it allows me space to take side jobs and I enjoy helping my local community. I have a 4 acre private yard with a walking trail permitter, lots of open space and wooded space for your pup to play safely. I also have a paved path out front leading to miles paved trails. I will be comfortable in your home as long as your pet is as well. I like to spend time with them outside as much as possible.
