3. Natalie S.
About: every sitter loves animals, but I really do adore animals and I love being able to just enjoy and meet new animals. My special skills with animals is to cuddle! I love making sure the fur babies are taking care of with love and respect! I currently work a full time job, M-T from 7 to 5, which is the main reason of dog sitting on the weekends! I can do full weeks just need to know ahead of time to be able to discuss with work! The best option is to have them at the client’s home, animals are always comfortable when at home and a place they know! It’s already scary that a stranger is in there house but much better than a scary car ride into a new house!

“Gracie did a wonderful job caring for our senior 14 year old dog named "Blitz" which includes a rather unique feeding routine and one med 3 times a day. Blitz told us to please have her come dog-sit me anytime!”


8. Ashley C.
“I’ve known Ashley for a long time. When she was a little girl she used to play for hours outside with her dog, following them in the woods, playing in the mud, walking, etc. And now as an adult, she still doesn’t like to be far away from her fur babies. She structures her life to be home and available for her pets, she keeps them updated on vaccines, and socializes them with other dogs as much as she can. She especially developed a love for poodles about six years ago. She learned to groom them herself and has had this breed now for many years. She loves the breed for their intelligence and sensitivity. She also loves that she can have matching curly hair with them. I can ensure you Ashley will go above and beyond to make sure your pet is cared for with the highest quality.”


9. Kabody B.
“Kabody is fantastic with animals. He is patient gentle and seems to have a natural affinity with them. Animals like him without even trying, he does like to spoil the animals though.”


10. Isabella C.

“Isabella was great with our dogs while we were on a 6 day trip. She stayed at our home to keep our dogs company throughout the day and night. We would definitely use her again!”


11. Ashlynn S.

“Ashlynn was great!”


12. Elisabeth G.
“Elisabeth was so easy to work with. I don't trust many people with my Charles. Elisabeth was punctual and kept my hyper corgi entertained. I trusted that Charles would behave and be well cared for with her. Elisabeth made me feel comfortable enjoying a weekend away with my husband. I loved the updates she sent me because I'm a bit of a helicopter dog mum.”


13. Makayla L.
About: I’ve taken care of all types of breeds, im trying to save for dog grooming school. In the future I’ll be running my own dog training/grooming business.

I’m available Monday through Wednesday for anything you would need mornings, afternoons or nights, I have a part time job bartending Thursday through Saturday. Sundays are my personal days. I have a large yard, not fenced. I can feed/ water, walk, pet sit. Your pet will be safe with me at all times. I’m available to come to you if needed as well!


14. Joclynn W.
About: I have had Rottweiler and pit bulls since I was a baby, I bathe my own dogs and take them on walks daily I have 3 of my own right now, including a Rottweiler, Shih Tzu and a terrier mix, all from either the local shelter or strays no one ever claimed. I’m currently only babysitting my newphew, but I am going to classes to be an emt so it fits right in with my schedule & helps me earn more money towards classes and equipment! I have a fenced in yard and I have 3 dogs of my own, if I was at another persons house I’d make sure to watch the dog carefully, clean up any potty messes and make sure they get enough exercise with walking, running, and playing!


15. Sai Mahit V.
About: I have taken care of dogs for the past few years for friends and family, and have volunteered at local dog shelter whenever I have the time to do so. Many of my friends and family have relied on me to feed them, take them for walks, and bathe them, and make sure they are kept in their cage. I have worked with smaller dogs like corgis to bigger golden retrievers. Right now, I am a graduate student who's research is mostly done via computer. So I can fit taking care of dogs and walking them around within my daily routine. I can make time for them when needed. I can take of pets at my home or at the client's home. I can crate the dogs if needed and keep them in a safe place in my room in the house. I want to make sure the pets are always safe around me and will keep them at watch during the duration.


16. Elloise G.
About: I’ve been assisting in pet care since I was 9. I love rolling around and cuddling fur babies. I believe they deserve all the love and care in the world. I’m currently unemployed by choice, but I run a few side businesses and have plenty of hobbies. I have my own baking business, along with a custom crafting business. I’m starting a blind date with a book soon. I’m a huge book reader and enjoy cooking and cleaning while my partner is working. I do live in a spacious apartment with two fur babies of my own. My apartment complex has a huge open yard. I am committed to providing the needed care for your pet(s).


17. Eva A.
“Eva is an attentive pet sitter who took great care of our 3 cats and 2 dogs. She is very warm and friendly and sent us daily updates and pics of our animals while we were away. When we came home after our weekend away our pets were relaxed and happy!”


18. Heidi R.
About: I can follow any and all instructions given to ensure your dog is comfortable and happy, as well as to ease any anxiety they may have. I work full time, but I am typically off around 4:00 daily. Mt weekends are typically free other than the occasional sporting event on Saturdays. I have an outdoor lead that my dog uses, as we dont hage a fenced in yard. My cat is indoor but she likes to roam outside when it gets warmer.


19. Mel S.
About: I have taken care of pets my whole life and I have been known to be very good with them. I have a cat and a dog myself. I have a dog of my own so I would take him outside 4 times a day and I would take him on walks in the park in my hometown. I would respect your house rules and treat your dogs with love and care. If they were in my home, I would treat them with the same rules they are used to in your home as well.


20. Chloe B.
About: I’ve had pets pretty much all my life. They each become a part of me and stay in my heart forever. I’ve had cats, dogs, fish, birds, and I have cared for them along with bunnies and snakes when I worked at the shelter. I love my pets dearly and will treat your pets with as much love. I currently have more open availability in the mornings so I would be able to check in on your pets for you while you run your errands or you’re at work. Give them the love and attention that you want to give them, but unfortunately aren’t able to. I wake up in the mornings and give my babies food and fresh water. Give them attention once they wake up a little bit. I check their bowls periodically when I’m home and change the water at night and give them a little more food before bed. Along with nighttime cuddles because house are important. I wake up in the morning and take care of my cats first thing. Get them food. I wash their water bowl out and get them fresh water. I give them attention after they wake up a little bit more. I pay attention to their body signs and try to give them what they need. I love and care for my pets and I will do the same for yours.
