About: I have been pet sitting dogs and cats since I was 13. Our pets are our family, I also own two dogs of my own! I am on summer break from college so during the summer I’m free anytime, during school I am free 4-8 hours a day for pet fun! I make sure to give lots of love, attention, cuddles, and play time with any animal of any size. I am big on treat giving!

About: Hi 👋 I offer overnight care in the pet's home environment to be sure they are well cared for while you're away. I'm available to care for them, love on them, and go above and beyond your expectations! I will come do an introductory visit with the pets while you are there so I can meet them and we can go over their routines, what they like to do during the day, discuss any medications, discuss any household chores, and we can be sure the pets will feel comfortable with me as their caregiver while you are away. I've been blessed to care for dogs, cats, horses, ponies, chickens, ducks, turtles, and even catfish. I’ve been blessed to pet sit for years and I will happily provide references at your request! I am available to pet/home sit for any duration. One day/night up to weeks at a time. My rates are fair and affordable. Along with caring for your fur family, I can also handle everyday household tasks such as watering plants, taking the trash to the road, checking the mail, and etc. Household chores are no extra charge. Please, no snakes or lizards. Let's chat! Othet than pet sitting, I do ministry with a Christian camp. When we discuss the dates and what you need, I can tell you about my ministry schedule for the dates that you need me. Rest assured, I will be sure to take excellent care of your fur family! During the introductory visit, I make it a point to learn the general household schedule so I know what is normal around your home and what is not normal. I take safety of your fur family and your property seriously. If your fur family needs to go outside, I am right there with them. If your fur family stays outside, apart from me spending time playing with them, I check on them routinely to be sure they are safe and content. In the morning and at night I check outside to be sure that everything is alright. At night I lock all doors.

About: I've cared for all types of animals from hamsters, rabbits, turtles, cats and dogs- even the occasional horse!! I have experience training dogs, including puppies, and I love nothing more than a good walk with my furry friends. I also am able to dispense medicine, should that be needed while they are in my care. I am employed part time so I am available in the morning and evenings and on Saturdays. I am happy to feed, play, water and walk, as needed. I prefer to care for pets in their own environment. I have found this helps them feel comfortable and it helps me get to know their personalities and earn the trust of the pet and their owner.

“Sabrina is so sweet! I was kind of skeptical about having someone I didn’t know house/dogsit, but Sabrina made me feel super comfortable about the whole process. She sent pictures of our dog several times a day to put my mind at ease. Came back from our trip and our dog was safe & happy and the house was just like we left it. I highly recommend Sabrina!”


“I was completely comfortable leaving both my precious little one and my home in her care. She is a mature professional who does this on the side because she truly loves dogs. She was so patient with my quirky senior girl. 100% recommend!”

About: I’ve been caring for pets professionally and personally for several years, and it’s truly something I’m passionate about. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments, from energetic puppies to mellow seniors and I always take the time to get to know each pet’s unique personality. Pet care fits into my daily and weekly routine as a structured, essential part of the day just like eating or working. • Morning: Feed pets, refresh water, take dogs for a walk or clean litter boxes. • Midday: Walks, playtime, or drop-in visits if providing services to clients. • Evening: Dinner, another walk or potty break, brushing or light grooming. • Safe environment: Pet-proofed spaces, separate areas if needed for different pets. • Feeding on schedule: Following owner instructions exactly, including dietary restrictions. • Exercise/playtime: Supervised yard play, walks. • Comfort & rest: Cozy resting areas, routines that mimic their home life to reduce stress. • Updates to owners: Daily photos or messages to reassure and stay transparent.

About: Growing up, I've always been the neighborhood pet sitter, caring for various animals. I've learned to quickly adapt to different pet personalities and needs, ensuring they're comfortable and content. With my own two dogs and two cats, I've honed my skills in managing diverse pet care tasks from walks to feedings. I'm attentive and responsible, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are in good hands! I am a college student so I do have classes Monday and Wednesday afternoons but I am able to work around it as much as needed! When pet sitting, safety is my top priority. I always make sure your home is secure and that your pets can't get into anything harmful. I'm super careful about following your instructions to the letter, from feeding to walking routes. Building trust is key to me as well, I'll keep you updated with messages and photos, so you know your furry family is doing well. Plus, I'm all about respecting your space, keeping it clean and just as you left it. For the environment, I create a calm and loving atmosphere, so your pets feel at ease. I pay attention to their habits and adjust to their comfort level, whether that's playtime or quiet companionship. Your pets' well-being is always my focus!

About: I have always loved taking care of animals. Growing up in military housing I would care for our neighbors dogs whether it was walking, bathing or brushing teeth. I do have two small Chihuahua mix fur babies of my own. My priority is to ensure a safe and clean home for my dogs, and I promise it will be the same for yours as well. You will get photos throughout the day to stay updated! I am currently working part time and I would have time avalible during the day to ensure I am able to provide the upmost care for your fur babies! I do live in an apartment building but there is a bark park I can take your baby to burn off energy if you prefer, or I can also walk them multiple times a day around the complex.

About: I have had large and small dogs my whole life. I can do anything from give medicine and bottle feeding to bath and walk dogs.i have taken care of senior dogs and puppies. I work part time and can make stop-ins in the mornings and on lunch and at night. I can also house sit and walk dogs. As a dog lover I know the general care for dogs.

About: I have taken care of animals for all of my life because of my love for animals I’ve always had with them.

About: I babysit humans and pets, but pets are my favorite. Let me know what needs to be done and I’ll get it done. I’ve been sitting my very type A sister’s Aussie doodle since he was a pup and she continues asking me to watch him, if you knew her - you’d be sold. But since you probably don’t, let me know if you have any questions or concerns or you’re interested in booking with me. Thanks! I am a student taking online classes just saving up and making ends meet, give me notice and I’ll make myself available. I accept same day bookings. I follow directions and ask questions. I respect the space that I take up and I’m mindful that animals have preferences and personalities that need to be regarded carefully, just as I would a human’s.
