“Always so reliable and Harry loves to see her!! Let’s me not have to worry so much about leaving him alone when I know Julie will be there to check on him!”
2. Madisen W.
“Madisen met all the expectations despite my pets being a bit high maintenance. She went above and beyond and filled my kittens bowl and checked on her despite me saying it isn't important to drop in on her and it's optional, my dogs were more of a priority since they don't have litter boxes. I recommend her to anyone, she has proper experience and is very responsive to text messages. She makes sure she meets your needs and more. Wonderful being!”
3. Taylor M.
“Taylor is one of the most reliable and caring people I know, especially when it comes to animals. He has a natural ability to connect with pets and make them feel comfortable and loved. Whether it’s keeping a consistent routine, giving extra attention during playtime, or simply being there for a cuddle, Taylor goes above and beyond to ensure every pet feels safe and happy. His attention to detail and dependable nature make him someone I would trust without hesitation to care for any pet. If you're looking for someone who truly understands and loves animals, Taylor is the perfect choice.”

“My very shy cat let her pet him on day one. That’s a true sign of someone with a heart that is sympathetic to animals. She went above and beyond taking care of my cats while I was gone for a week.”

7. Renee N.
About: I have always had multiple pets while also gaining experience pet sitting so I’m familiar with the responsibility it takes to care for them. I love animals so overall I will make sure to not only meet the needs of your baby but give them extra love and attention too! I recently moved to the area and have not yet found a job so I have open availability, flexible on drop in times and able to coordinate visits around your schedule. Given that I’m visiting your home I will make sure to be punctual and thoroughly clean your space before I leave. Your pet or pets will be fed and played with , I’ll also make sure to let them out for a good amount of time to exercise and eliminate the risk of any accidents in your home. I hope to leave you and your fur baby happy!

“Took great care of the cats!”
9. Taylor D.
About: Hi! I grew up taking care of chickens, horses and cows. We had a pitbull, several reptiles (turtles, a snake and a bearded dragon) and 2 cats so I'm not afraid of dogs that most people assume are "hostile" when really they're big babies. I LOVE all animals and I might become obsessed with yours but the only animals I'm a little freaked out about are bugs. My current working hours are from 7 am to 2 pm. I have some veterinary experience and am willing to work with dogs medication times and requirements. Any additional care you need please let me know, nothing is too much. I obsess over my guinea pigs so I understand if you obsess too! I have 2 dogs (Rufus and Matilda), 2 guinea pigs (Calliope and Daphne) and a cat (Echo). Rufus is a rescue and hasn't socialized with any other dogs besides Matilda so we're not ready to have other animals stay over

11. Josie J.

12. Mallory W.
About: I am a college student who has two pups of my own. While I own small breeds, I have a lot of experience with large breeds like Great Danes! I am an online college student who works at a school, so I am available every weekday after 4 and some weekends. I love dogs and getting my daily exercise so this is a perfect after work activity! I want to continue your dogs schedule like you were at home. If that means constant snuggles, working on obedience training, or anything in between!
13. Laura C.
“Laura is a fabulous pet sitter and a wonderful person to work with! She's reliable, trustworthy, caring & competent. Her excellent communication with us while we were away was very comforting; we knew that 'the boys' were in good hands. Laura went above & beyond in her service and we highly recommend her!”
14. Cora T.
About: I worked as a vet assistant for four years. I worked at a small animal clinic specializing in dogs and cats for three years and one year for a large animal practice. I also have horses and dogs of my own and have grown up with cats. I have a flexible schedule in order to let your pets out multiple times a day and I also enjoy being outdoors so your pets will get plenty of exercise and play time. I am currently working remotely so I have plenty of flexibility during the day for potty/play breaks and on weekends to help take care of your furry friends. I have a large fenced in backyard and three playful pups to keep your fur babies company. I also have the availability to keep them separated if necessary and extra crates if needed.

About: I have previously worked at a veterinarian clinic for roughly two years. I have experience giving medications and taking care of pets with special care instructions. I am currently working at a dialysis clinic three to four days a week. I am able to have pet board with me and be let out a minimum of three times a day. I take care of all pets like my own. I enjoy spending time with them. I ensure mental stimulation and attention is always given when in my care. I believe in frequent communication with my clients. Pets are our babies and I love to give updates on how things are going.

About: I have been raised around both cats and dogs all of my life and I look forward to taking care of yours! Just like humans, each and every pet has their own personality and style. I will adapt to your pet’s wants and needs. I will love and care for your precious fur babies as if they were my very own! Not only will I provide excellent care to your pet, but I will also collect the mail, take out the trash, and keep both the house and yard clean while you are away! I do work full time (7:00 AM - 4:00 PM) Monday through Friday. However, I can be available after 4:00 PM Monday-Friday. I am available anytime Saturday and Sunday! Although I do not have a fenced yard, I do live in a gated neighborhood that requires all dogs to be kept on a leash when being walked outdoors. I also own a 1.5 year old Pomeranian who is full of energy and super social, guaranteed to keep your fur baby entertained - if both you and your pet are comfortable with that!
20. Persephone M.
About: Growing up I always wanted to be a veterinarian due to the love and compassion I had for all types of animals. Due to my environment the only animals besides those of nature that I was around were mainly cats and dogs. I took that to my advantage and spent every moment possibly with any cat or dog I could get my hands on. There were always stray litters of kittens and I made sure to always find them and bring them home. We took care of them and rehomed them. It may have drove my mother batty, but she knew I cared for every animal I met and had to do this. Fast forward to adulthood, I still scream like a child inside whenever I see a cat or dog… which yes happens to be a lot. I own two of my own German shepherds and two cats. My parents have always had small dogs so I am used to dogs of all sizes. I am currently a stay at home mom needing to find a job that will be rewarding work to me and help me support my family I have two separated fenced yards and a cozy bedroom inside. If kid friendly, they will be allowed to roam and hangout in our dog friendly home. If they are not friendly with my dogs I will make sure my dogs are kept separate as your fur babies will be my first priority always. They will be allowed to be outdoors with access to indoors whenever they would like. Fresh water and food provided always. Treats with permission. If staying overnight, they will be crated in the bedroom next to mine. If friendly and potty trained, they may roam at night.
