Rachael is amazing! This was the first time having someone other than family watching our Great Danes while we went on vacation. We got constant updates and our dogs had the best time!

Morgan is absolutely wonderful! I have a mini bernedoodle and he gets anxious at boarding facilities so I wanted to try the pet sitter route. I was nervous leaving him but Morgan took amazing care of my guy while I was away. She sent photos and messages several times a day and my house was clean when I got home. She is kind, responsible and respectful. I will absolutely be reaching out to her again next time I go out of town. Thank you Morgan💖

About: Hello, my name is Tori I am 21 years old and looking to take care of your pets. I grew up on a farm for 10 years so I have experiences with all animals. I am comfortable administering medication/injections. I am experienced in wound care and injured animals. I also uncomfortable with reptiles I own a bearded dragon, a leopard gecko and a snake I worked at a small local reptile store for two years. I also have two dogs and two cats of my own. One of my favorite activities is to take my dogs for a walk And throw their ball for them. I am comfortable with small overnight stays, drop in visits and daily walking. I hope you will consider me for your pets care! I work as a waitress about three days a week fairly short shifts usually ranging between 11 AM to 5 PM or 4 PM to 8 PM I am open to overnight stays and drop in visits. I am an animal lover, so they will get loved the same way. I would love mine. I’m very calm so nervous dogs or cats will not be bothered by me.

Emma was a pro! A full week of looking out for our four dogs is nothing easy to ask of anyone, but she showed up for them everyday, loving and caring for them like they were her own. Coming home to happy babies gave me so much joy.

About: Ever since I was little, I have loved animals. I grew up with at least one pet in the house since I can remember. Animal care is basically second nature to me now, and I would love to spread that care to other's pets! I currently have a part-time job, so I have plenty of time for your pets! Taking care of pets has always been the norm for me, so adding more pets to my schedule would be so fulfilling! Having my services in your own home is the best way to keep your pets calm, safe and worry-free. Everything your pet needs is right there!

About: For as long as I can remember, dogs have been an important part of my life. I grew up with a Maltese poodle, and helped take care of her as she grew into her senior years. Most of my family members have dogs, and we consider them as family, not just pets. Within the last year, my husband and I got a new puppy, and I'm adoring being a dog mom! With this in mind, don't be afraid to ask if I'm willing to watch your young puppy. Age is not a problem for me, and I am happy to come alongside your training process if you wish. I guarantee that your fluffy friend will be in the best of hands as you come to me for your pet-sitting needs. I will be sure to offer frequent photo updates and check-ins, and my puppy would love to come with me as I care for your pet, providing them with a new fluffy friend! I would love to make quality pet care my part-time job this summer, so I am happy to work with your schedule. I am available any day of the week except for Sundays. My routine with my own pup includes lots of exercise (to get that puppy energy out) and snuggle time too. However, I am happy to cater to your dog's age and stage of life. While walking your furry friend, I will be extra mindful and only take them on routes I know are trustworthy and safe. In your home, you can trust me with all of their needs and to be respectful of your family's space. I will send frequent updates and photos of your pet, and will do my very best to blend in with your pet's pre-established schedule, so their needs will be more than met.

About: I have watched dogs and cats both long term and short term since 2018. From my parents’ pets for a day, to a 4 months house and pet-sitting arrangement in California I have had good experiences caring for animals. I take their care as seriously as I would my own pet, but respect the rules and routines set up by the pet parents. I am currently unemployed outside of this, so I have tons of availability and time to focus on YOUR pets and their needs. I can spend as much or as little time with them as needed. I care for pets based on the instructions of their normal care takers, while focusing on basic care and schedule. It’s important to me that pets feel safe and their routine is not disturbed too much. If allows, I also like to give plenty of pets and cuddles to any animals that’s accept it.

About: I have trained many animals. Volunteered at shelters. Have my own fur babies. Your fur babies will be in great hands and you will receive pictures everyday. I am also in the medical field and know some things about vet experience. I am currently working at silver cross hospital as a certified medical assistant. I will have time in the morning and after work to take care of your animals. I love animals and just being around them too. I have a fenced in yard but if a homeowner does not I can put the animal on a leash or take them for a walk to use the restroom. I will make sure that your fur baby has the best experience while you are away. You will receive updates and pictures of your animal too.

About: Tyson was my first dog I got when I turned 17. We traveled everywhere together & he showed me how loving an animal can truly be. I am the first one my friends call to watch their animals. I absolutely love taking them on walks & I will love your fur baby like my own. I am currently working part time. I usually work around four to five days a week. And Im usually off Saturdays thru Mondays. Give or take I rent a home with a fenced in backyard. I do currently have 2 dogs. (Chihuahua mixes and a heeler mix.) they are crate trained so if you’re more comfortable with them staying separated from your baby(ies) that is absolutely no problem, depending on the duration of the stay.

About: I’ve worked in veterinary medicine as a veterinary assistant and kennel assistant in multiple different offices and shelters for ten years. I also have owned numerous dogs and cats in my lifetime. I have experience with diabetic cats and dogs, and administering medication. There is no dog i cannot medicate when he needs them! I’m a stay at home mom of 1 with two dogs and one cat, so I’m always available. Rain or shine, day or night, I can always pop in on Fido or Fluffy! Unless otherwise discussed with the pet parent, my usual rounds would include cleaning and refilling the water bowl at every visit, feeding at the agreed upon times, bathroom breaks upon my arrival and departure, regardless of the length of my stay, and plenty of loves and scritches for your four legged best friend!

About: I was always the go to person for pet sitting in my family. Growing up, we always had at least one dog in the house. And I was fortunate enough to have had one for 16 years. Her name was Bear. She was the best family dog anyone could ask for and I miss her very much. She is the reason I love taking care of animals so much. Recently, I have become very fond of cats and live with 2 of them. They have stolen my heart and take care of them every day. I also have two reptiles which are my whole world. No matter what animal, I would love to take care of them. I’m the sitter for you! I am in between jobs at the moment so my schedule is very flexible right now. I am very open and honest so I’m very willing to for the schedule that’s best for you and your pet! I am not offering services in my home. As much as I would love to, I rent and cannot have a lot of animals staying with me. I’m sorry for the inconvenience!

About: Welcome to my profile! I have been a caretaker for over 18 years. I started as a nanny, fell into a house assistant, and have pet/house sat for numerous people both in Chicago and LA. Currently I run a small business working part-time as a home organizer and looking to supplement that income. I am a good communicator, responsible, and trustworthy. I will give your animals and house as much TLC as I can. I work part-time as a home organizer and I am looking to supplement that income with more active work that fulfills me. There's a chance I actually open up my own pet day care one day. Tend to their feeding and bathroom needs especially staying consistent with the schedule the pet parents provides. Since I work part-time I can be home with the animals longer to give them more TLC..

About: I have had animals my entire life. I also have some training in the Veterinary field if there is ever a problem! I have a Shih Tzu named Oscar, and a big fluffy mix named Jaydee Mae. I also have 4 cats, Felix, Joey, Ellie and Ruby! I also have a few years of dog training under my belt, so I can even train your puppies in basic obedience and potty training! I am currently working full time, however if I have a clientele, the goal is to do this work full time, work for myself, and be able to work any day, anywhere! My dogs are let out about 5 times a day on a schedule, or whenever they ask me to go out. My dogs also get fed one cup twice daily. My cats are a bit different. If the food bowl is empty, I will refill it. It's usually just a cup. I also love to take my dogs to the dog park, or I will take them on walks. My Boxer and Shih Tzu own my bed, but Brutus sleeps in his crate most nights. Otherwise, they have total freedom. I will care for your pets in however way you need them taken care of. However, there will be some amount of spoiling! I love to play with other people's dogs and take them on walks. I love bathing, feeding, cuddling, and well, you name it!

About: I have always loved animals, especially dogs! I am a responsible, energetic, caring person that would love to take care of your pet! Your pets are part of the family, just like mine. I have experience dog sitting small to medium sized dogs. I am not strong enough to walk or care for larger dogs (unless of course they are great on the leash walking). I do not discriminate against any kind of breeds. I have two dogs of my own that are chihuahua and chihuahua mix. I have cared for small chihuahuas to larger pit bulls. Just message me with your needs as I work part time as a dental hygienist so I will work around my hours. I, also, volunteer at a wild animal rescue where I get to care for raccoons, foxes, deer, possums, squirrels and rabbits under the supervision of a veterinarian. I love animals of all kinds! Caring for animals is a passion of mine !

About: Ever since I was a kid I gew up in a household of cats, dogs, reptiles, birds you name it! My whole life I have loved animals, some of my main activities now is walking my dog to reach my health/fitness goals along with enjoying the company of my dog. I also currently have a gray Korat cat named Teddy/Ted Ted and a Red Australian Shepherd named Jazz! In the past I've taken care of family,friends and neighbors pets from birds to dog's while they were away as well! Right now I am currently getting back into shape while doing side projects online and yardwork. Caring for animals and taking them for walks will really help my goals in fitness and life in general! Also I am a very reliable person and can flex my hours to your needs! When I take care of friend's or family's pets, I make sure I am very punctual and stay as long as I need to make sure their pets are well cared for. I will make sure that I will make sure your pets receive the same treatment as my own. Please let me know if your pets have any special requirements, thank you!

I have known Tori for almost 10 years. During that time she has cared for all manner of animals from dogs, cats, bunnies, and farm animals at her homestead as she grew up. When she was old enough, Tori watched my 3 dogs, chickens, and children for about 5 years on and off and there is no one I trust more! She will love your fur babies like her own!

Philip took excellent care of our 2 dogs and cat while we were away on a week long vacation. He spent lots of quality time with all the animals and made sure they were all fed and well cared for. He sent us daily pictures of the pets. He administered our cat’s medication twice a day. He also watched the house, took out the trash and watered all our plants, I 100% recommend Philip and plan on using him every time we go out of town.

I am writing to wholeheartedly recommend Alexiya Moats as an exceptional pet sitter. Over the time she has cared for my pets, I’ve come to deeply appreciate her reliability, compassion, and natural connection with animals. Alexiya goes above and beyond in her responsibilities. She doesn’t just feed and walk pets—she genuinely connects with them. Whether it’s playing with a high-energy dog, soothing a nervous cat, or managing medications and feeding schedules, she handles it all with patience and professionalism. One of the things that stands out most about Alexiya is her attention to detail and communication. She keeps me updated with photos and notes, making me feel confident and at ease whenever I’m away. My pets absolutely adore her and are always excited to see her again—something that speaks volumes.

Kay was exceptional when we hired her to watch our menagerie of animals. She is a responsible kid with a head on her shoulders! We'd ask hwr back for sure.

About: I have always loved animals, especially dogs! I am a responsible, energetic, caring person that would love to take care of your pet! Your pets are part of the family, just like mine. I have experience dog sitting small to medium sized dogs. I am not strong enough to walk or care for larger dogs (unless of course they are great on the leash walking). I do not discriminate against any kind of breeds. I have two dogs of my own that are chihuahua and chihuahua mix. I have cared for small chihuahuas to larger pit bulls. Just message me with your needs as I work part time as a dental hygienist so I will work around my hours. I, also, volunteer at a wild animal rescue where I get to care for raccoons, foxes, deer, possums, squirrels and rabbits under the supervision of a veterinarian. I love animals of all kinds! Caring for animals is a passion of mine !

About: Ever since I was a kid I gew up in a household of cats, dogs, reptiles, birds you name it! My whole life I have loved animals, some of my main activities now is walking my dog to reach my health/fitness goals along with enjoying the company of my dog. I also currently have a gray Korat cat named Teddy/Ted Ted and a Red Australian Shepherd named Jazz! In the past I've taken care of family,friends and neighbors pets from birds to dog's while they were away as well! Right now I am currently getting back into shape while doing side projects online and yardwork. Caring for animals and taking them for walks will really help my goals in fitness and life in general! Also I am a very reliable person and can flex my hours to your needs! When I take care of friend's or family's pets, I make sure I am very punctual and stay as long as I need to make sure their pets are well cared for. I will make sure that I will make sure your pets receive the same treatment as my own. Please let me know if your pets have any special requirements, thank you!
