About: I bring a level of responsibility and trust that sets me apart. I’ve cared for pets of all kinds — from cuddly cats to quirky dogs — in homes across the U.S. I’m calm, attentive, and always treat pets like they’re my own. I'm also neat, reliable, and communicative, so you'll always know your pets and home are in good hands. What sets me apart? 👉 Life experience 👉 Flexibility to travel 👉 A deep love for animals (and the quiet joy of daily routines) Whether it’s meds, snuggles, or just holding down the fort — I’ve got it covered. I’m a retired real estate agent turned full-time traveler, so my schedule is wide open — no 9–5, no rush. Pet care is a natural fit for my lifestyle. I enjoy quiet mornings, long walks (with or without a leash in hand), and cozy evenings in. Because I work remotely and love slow travel, I’m able to give pets my full attention. I’m home a lot, I don’t party, and I’m happy sticking to your pet’s routine — whether that’s sunrise feedings, mid-day meds, or nightly snuggles. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I treat it with the same respect I would my own. I follow all instructions closely — from feeding schedules to security routines — and I’m extremely mindful about keeping doors locked, floors clean, and pets safe. I believe in calm, consistent environments, especially for animals. I keep noise to a minimum, never invite guests over, and I’m happy to update you with daily messages or photos so you always know your pets are well. Trust and safety are my top priorities — both for your animals and your home.
About: I have taken care of a lot of dogs and cats in my lifetime as well as reptiles like iguanas bearded dragons, and small animals like guinea pigs and hamsters. I have a lot of experience with a lot of different animals and I’ve always wanted to be a vet growing up, but I decided to go into nursing and this is my one way to be able to help others and take care of animals the best I can. I have a very flexible job Monday through Friday and I do not work on weekends so I’m available most nights and weekends. I do require some notice but I am very flexible with even like a day or two notice ahead of time. Depending on if I come to you or you utilize my home, I have lots of toys I have crates for the animals. I have a backyard for the animals to run free and I have no problem doing the messy work and cleaning up poop when they need to go They will have lots of love and if you are OK with it, I also have older children that love animals just as much as I do so that means extra love to your fur babies
About: I can watch animals of all sizes, chickens, goat dogs, cats, dogs, I own a few types over the years and can possibly learn a new pet, if needed to watch ❤️❤️🐰 I’m currently at home during the day, I’m usually scheduled 1-2 nights a week and will have my daughter helping with the responsibilities for caring for your animals, walking, reading them books and loving on them!

About: I’ve been around pets my entire life. I grew up in a household of cats and dogs. A few different breeds and various personalities.

House visits and dog walking are my preferred services. I will respect your space and your pets. I care deeply about animals and people. My top priority is to keep people and pets safe and happy.
“Leslie was so sweet to my little Luna! Cats of course aren’t always the most social of creatures but Luna took to Leslie right away! She sent me pics that showed Luna all snuggled up on her lap which made me feel good! I’d highly recommend and will definitely have Leslie back to watch my little kitty!”

Stevie H.
“I've known Stevie since 2010 and when I first met her I saw right away she had a passion for all living creatures. Wether it's 2 legged, 4 legged, or no legged. She's a lover of life and a steward to animals and our environment. She has always cared about the wellbeing of all living things. If she couldn't help an animal she would find someone who could. Even before she worked as a human officer, she would go out at all hours to help animals in need. I highly recommend her for any and all work with animals. Your loved family member will be in the best of hands when with Stevie.”
Elizabeth S.
“Elizabeth is one of the most loving and caring individuals I know. We've been friends for about four years and she's helped me out so much. I'm paralyzed from the upper chest down and she helps feed me; anything I need. I'm going to be getting a cat soon and she was the first to offer to help take care of it. I've seen her with her own pets, two cats and a dog, and she is extremely responsible and caring when it comes to her animals. She takes them outside regularly and always makes sure they have enough food, water, and most importantly, attention. She has watched many dogs in the time I've known her and always pays the utmost attention to them; always taking them on long walks and petting them. I have no doubt she will care for your pets just as she cares for her own.”
