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: I got my first dog when I was ten and had him for a good fifteen years. I still miss him constantly but playing and caring for other animals helps. I'm good with all dogs puppies-elderly and toy-BIG My main focus right now is school but it’s online and very flexible so I’m currently looking for ways to make money that are also flexible I make sure the animals have access to water and their stimulants constantly and keep things like their food and walk times as close to their regular schedule as possible as possible

About: I have always had a strong passion for all animals of every kind. I grew up taking care of animals as small as hamsters up to cows in the parlor as a part of my daily chores. Once I reached middle school I started volunteering for dog breeders taking care of all the old dogs and caring for the newborn puppies giving shots and creating schedules for them. I also got into the Humane Society taking their animal health course and enrichment class learning how to administer shots, pills, and different ways to train and entertain our fur babies. In high school I went to the Tech Center and did their ag and animal science program where I learned a lot more on healthy diets, quality of life, how to train, as well as vet terminology. I volunteered at Howling Timbers where I cared for domestic, semi-domestic, and no domestic animals of all sorts learning about different animal behaviors and what to look out for, how to handle many challenges, and most importantly how to grow a trusting bond with animals of all sorts of different behavior types and how to get them to trust in me. I now do dog grooming after attending a dog grooming school where I learned how to not only groom, but learned basic vet knowledge and tips to treating, how to work and handle older, aggressive, and anxious dogs. I currently work part time which gives me plenty of time and flexibility for anyone’s needs to be with their loved ones. I have a reliable form of transportation and work short days which also gives the freedom of more time for your pets and also how far I can go! I have spare crates in my home as well as a fenced in backyard which allows for all day access to whatever you pup wants to explore! As for visiting other homes that will mainly depend on the pet parent itself and I always carry extra leashes.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for a large part of my life. My parents neighbors and friends have relied on me to watch, walk, and feed their pets ever since I was able to. I am available for dog walking in mornings and afternoons during the week, and boarding for weekdays and weekends. I have a flexible schedule so just reach out and ask! At my home I have access to a dog park along with several walking trails nearby. There is also a nearby park and a lot of free and fenced in space for your pets!

“Wonderful experience with Laura. She brought treats for my girls, and took cute photos of them both. Laura is super nice, and flexible working with my schedule. Will be using regularly. Thank you for taking great care of my babies”


“We rebooked Kristen for our cats and she was great with them. This was her second time looking in after them and they didn’t even hide. So glad we were able to book her again. She’s magic!”



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.

About: I've taken care of dogs my whole life. I grew up caring for our Boxers, Pitbulls, Dash Hounds and Chihuahuas. We also had horses and at one point a bunny. I really enjoy walking and training all sorts of animals! I'm currently working part time so I have a lot of time early in the week to help with puppos.(All dogs are just big puppos at heart.) I am very flexible and mobile. I currently live somewhere where I can't have more animals, so pet care at my home is a no go, however I am more than happy to stick to any routines your pet may have in your own home and make sure they get plenty of attention.

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.

About: I have a very open availability and am looking mostly to help with getting the furry friend some exercise while people are busy. I will follow instructions given by pet parents to meet their pets needs. Contact me about help with your furry friend! I'm open to all breeds. I'm pretty open. Let me know when you need a drop in or walk done. Last minute or planned. I will try to be there for your furry friend. I would give them a good play and a lot of attention, check and fill their food/water/litter or for a dog let them outside to do their business. Also I like to visually inspect around the house for any issues.

“Thank u so much !!”


About: I've been pet sitting for a few years now! I grew up with dogs, cats, fish, and hamsters, and they were integral members of our family. I absolutely love meeting and taking care of new pets, and I've gotten pretty good at it over time. I'll take dogs on walks, or to the dog park, dog beach, and give them baths if needed. I'm in between jobs now, so I have a lot of free time! I start work part-time beginning of June 2025, so I'll still have plenty of time to care for pets then as well :) Not able to have the dogs at our house, but I'll gladly care for your pets at your home in whatever fashion works best for you!

About: Growing up I’ve always had a love for animals particularly dogs. I don’t think there has been a point in my life I’ve lived without a dog or two. Now as an adult I’ve turned that passion into dog sitting and caring for others pets. It’s hard to find someone you trust and feel comfortable with as this is dog is part of your family. I would love to help with that. I’ve been a dog sitter for over 26 years now through word of mouth. I have personally owned many chihuahuas, huskies, shepherd mix and a coonhound. I specialize in providing care for older dogs who require special attention and a safe, comfortable environment. Additionally, I have extensive experience with dogs who suffer from separation anxiety, helping them feel secure through extra attention and dedicated time. While I am particularly familiar with smaller breeds, I have also cared for dogs of all sizes throughout my career. If you're looking for someone who will treat your dog with the same love and care as their own, I would be delighted to help. I’m currently a stay at home mom with older kids in school (8,14,17 and away at college 19 years old). During the day it would be a quiet relaxed environment. I have a passion for dogs and love helping pet owners with any behavioral issues or support as I care for their pets. I’m able to make the dog comfortable and have enjoyed the bond I create with every dog I watch. My goal is to help those relax while gone knowing they don’t have to worry about the care of their pet. While I normally have one dog at a time, occasionally there may be days when boarding and doggy day care overlap or I may do both on a case by case basis but I will do my best to inform owners ahead of time and accommodate owners and pets accordingly. I first would want to know how you care for your dog in your home. From there I try to adjust how I watch him or her in my home so the pet is comfortable doing what they are use to. Communication is important so I can understand what the needs are and provide a safe environment.


“Jen did a great job with my two pups! A quick visit with some playtime - and made sure everything was as it was supposed to be when she left again! Thank you! We will definitely be calling again!!”


“Taylor did a great job watching Murphy (our cat) while we were on vacation. Murphy quickly bonded with Taylor and was very happy to see Taylor. Taylor followed the schedule and provided great pictures on Murphy during her visits.”


About: Outside from growing up with dogs and animals of all kinds my whole life, I’ve taken care of multiple friends and family members fur babies since I was a young teenager. And for the past 13 years, I’ve been a career nanny, who has also always had the families animals to care for as well! I have a full time job Monday-Thursday until 6 pm. Afterwards, I have all nights open for care, including house sitting. I also have all day Friday-Sunday to offer walks, drops ins & house sitting. All pets will receive the utmost care and attention on my watch. I love all animals and being able to nurture them. Im big on communication with clients, including sending update photos and videos of our time spent together! Wether that be playing with their favorite toy or giving them their favorite treat; they’ll always feel loved on my watch.

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.
