“Lauran was understanding and affectionate with my granddogs , working very well both with the elderly dog and the younger strong-minded one. She was flexible to come when most needed. Lauran is mature, experienced, and able to handle the dogs easily, keeping them safe and happy. I look forward to having her care for the dogs again. She made it possible for me to care for the dogs and they love her.”

About: What truly sets me apart is my nine years of comprehensive, hands-on experience caring for my family's pets, consistently since 2016. My reliable background is further proven by my time dog sitting and walking for several friends, demonstrating comfort and expertise with pets outside my own home. I'm proficient in managing both large and small breeds, having cared for a Pitbull and a Yorkie, giving me confidence with all energy and handling needs. My experience also extends to cats. I rescued a cat that I found on the street, which highlights my patience and skill in providing gentle care for nervous or shy animals. I am reliable, versatile, and deeply committed to recognizing and meeting the individual needs of both dogs and cats. Pet care fits easily into my current schedule, ensuring your pets receive focused attention without being rushed. I work part-time as a Paraoptometric Technician and dedicate other free time to volunteering, but I intentionally keep large, consistent blocks open for pet care. My reliable availability includes Tuesday afternoons, Thursday mornings and afternoons, and full availability on weekends. This structure guarantees I can provide reliable, high-quality care, whether your pet needs a mid-day walk, or regular drop-in visits. My main goal is to create a stress-free and loving experience for your pet right in their familiar environment. When I care for your dog or cat, I focus entirely on their comfort and routine. I'm meticulous about following your exact instructions for feeding, medication, and walks, making sure their schedule feels perfectly normal. I also know that security is important, so you can trust me to be mindful of your home while I provide care. I'm skilled at providing gentle companionship—like I do for my own rescue cat—which is especially helpful for nervous or shy pets. You can count on me for excellent care, a tidy pet area, and frequent photo updates so you never have to wonder how happy they are!

“My address didn’t update correctly, but she was willing to work with me on an already last minute booking. I can’t thank her enough for going above and beyond. I highly recommend Rebecca if you want your pets well taken care of!”

“Annie is the best! She jumped in last minute to give our pup a much needed walk and potty break while we were out of town and updated us on all the things. 10/10 recommend!”

About: Hello! You can call me Wendy. I’m a tenured physics professor and a lifelong animal lover. I currently have three cats of my own and many years of experience caring for both cats and dogs. I have experience caring for senior pets and understand the importance of routines, medication schedules, and paying close attention to changes in behavior and health. I’m patient, reliable, detail-oriented, and committed to making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their family is away. For pets boarding in my home, I understand that some pets may be more comfortable having their own space. If you prefer, I can keep my three cats completely separate from your pet for the entire stay, so your pet can relax in a safe, quiet environment. As a professor, I bring professionalism, responsibility, and strong communication to every pet-sitting job. My schedule is especially flexible during evenings, weekends, holidays, and university breaks. Whether you need house sitting, drop-in visits, dog walking, feeding, litter box cleaning, or care for senior pets, I will treat your pets and home with the same care and respect I give my own.

About: I have a genuine love for animals and I have been pet/house sitting for about 10 years. I have always had pets and been around all different kinds of animals. I just graduated from law school, I started my new job post law school. I do work in an office, but I am able to stop in and make sure your animal is taken care of. I live in an apartment so I would prefer to take care of a pet at your home. I am happy to walk a dog on a leash, let them out to play, play with them, take them to a dog park.

“Winnie looked like she was loving her walk! Oliver responded really quickly to requests, was quite communicative and I loved the photos! (I hav a hard time getting good ones of her.) Thanks, Oliver!”

About: I’ve helped taken care of dogs since I were 7 years old. I know a lot of things about them. Ofc everyone can learn from some but I know enough and alot. Your dog will feel like there at home. I’m a full time baby sitter and wanted to add dogs to my list of things I watch. I will have all the time to give them the love in attention they will need I have doggy toys. A big field in the backyard with an park for them to run around! And they are in good hands. I have a small yorkie of my own.

“Sam was great! She was able to help me out in a pinch. She was prompt and informative. She requested instructions and followed them perfectly. And Korben obviously loved her too!”

Kristen H.

About: I had the best childhood dog growing up. We loved walks, playing fetch, just hanging out. My passion and love for dogs has helped me become the designated office house sitter. I really have no obligations outside of work and even while working, have flexibility to go home and walk and let animals out for fresh air. Hybrid work model so even have opportunities to work from home. Happy to do whatever is needed. I do tend to spoil animals I watch, but love long walks, fetch, etc. I’ve helped animals that have needed medicine, etc.

“Lauren is amazing! I have two dogs, a senior and a puppy, that have different needs. She worked with me to plan their walks and communicated wonderfully. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend Lauren to help take care of your fur babies!!!”

Karyssa C.

About: I've had pets since I was a child: dogs, cats, birds, fish, all kinds of animals. I love animals. I've rescued many from homeless and abandoned homes. Now I want to take care of that loved one so you can rest easy while you work or vacation. I have a fenced yard and my neighborhood is quiet. I'm currently home all day, so I'll be able to devote a lot of time to the pets. I have a baby who will just turn one, so it's important that they be friendly and calm pets. I live in a house with a large, quiet yard. They can sunbathe and play. I can take care of oral medications. Nothing serious, please.

About: I have grown up around animals and have experience with elderly dogs and very anxious cats specifically. My two childhood puppies grew up and I helped assist with their needs, such as medicine and helping them walk around with patience. I also understand what it’s like to have a very anxious cat— mine is too. I have one cat, a fish, and a snail of my own now! I’m currently building my health coaching clientele working from home. I take frequent breaks to walk at the park and often spend the majority of the day working on various tasks at home. I’m very flexible with my schedule right now! Since I have an anxious and non-sociable cat of my own at home I will be more open to visits such as drop-in’s and taking fur babies out on walks at the park right now!

“Catherine is great and takes really good care of Enzo! She treats him as if he is her own dog so it is greatly appreciated”

Taja P.

“Thanks for taking great care of our puppies!!”

“Very attentive and responsive. Scruffy was very happy after his walk!”

Arlet M.

About: I have always been an animal lover since I was a wee lad! I’ve never been afraid of “big scary dogs” or getting scratched by a cat. As long as they’re comfortable, I know I have nothing to fear! I always make sure to provide the best care for pets that aren’t mine because I think of how I would want my dog to be treated! I’ve just graduated college, so I am completely free to hang out with your pets all day if needed! Just give me the heads up and I’ll be on my way! I always make sure to introduce myself to the pet before anything. I make sure to feed them based off of their schedule and take them outside every hour if possible. The most important thing for me is that your pet feels comfortable!
