About: With over a decade of experience in animal husbandry, I care for pets of all ages and species. I’ve provided reliable pet sitting through college and now as a biology professor, handling everything from daily routines to medications and special needs. My goal is to keep your pets comfortable, happy, and cared for just as if you were home. Flexible for mornings, nights, and extended stays. I teach from morning to midday on weekdays. I usually wake up early to spend time with client’s pets or my own and have plenty of time to work in enrichment time and meals in the evening. It’s very important to me to provide a sense of normalcy to your pet. I may start out as a stranger but your pet and I will soon become best buds. I keep a strict schedule for check ins and they very quickly pick up that I’m keeping with the program and this eliminates a lot of their stress. I prefer to stay in your home and stick to your walk schedule (unless you’d like a field trip to a walking trail) so that the only change they have to deal with is missing you!

About: I have been caring for animals since I was 7 years old and was studying for Veterinary school until I had a falling out with my parents in my third year of college. I am working to get my degree and saving up for tuition to finish my studies so that I can pay back to my community what it has provided me with during the last 15 years. I plan to provide affordable healthcare for animals and am an advocate for pets. I believe in a world where you can afford to buy both good, nutritious foods and the vaccines your pets need. I am incredibly patient and extremely caring when it comes to our four legged children. I have never raised a hand to a dog, and of yet rarely been bitten. I work four days, off for three. I am off Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday and can also network with other caregivers who can take clients if I am booked. I no longer board due to moving, but I will gladly come spend time with your pets however you need. I do long distance, off-site walks for dogs with a strong migration drive, as well as hang out with your fur babies at home.

Our dog bonded with her instantly and we couldn’t be happier with her services. She is punctual, courteous, and thoughtful. We highly recommend her and hope she will look after Roadie again. A+”

About: Hi! My name is Sierra, and I’ve been around dogs my whole life. Growing up with dogs taught me how to care for them, understand their behavior, and enjoy their company every day. I used to go to the dog park regularly with my own dog, so I’m comfortable handling dogs in social settings and making sure they stay safe and happy. I’m responsible, patient, and genuinely love spending time with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I’d love the opportunity to care for your furry friend as if they were my own! I’m currently a full-time traveler with a very open and flexible schedule, which allows me to be available most days and times, including weekdays, weekends, and even short notice bookings. My lifestyle gives me the freedom to adapt to your dog’s needs and routine, whether it’s a daily walk, occasional drop-in, or a last-minute outing. When caring for pets in their home, I always make it a priority to follow the owner’s instructions closely to ensure your pet stays comfortable and safe in their familiar environment. I’ll only do what’s asked of me, and if I ever have any questions or need clarification, I won’t hesitate to reach out to you directly. Communication is important to me, and I want to make sure everything is done just the way you prefer for your pet’s routine and well-being.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs. I currently have four cats (two I’ve raised for over 3 years) and two dogs — one who’s been with me for 5 years and is now a senior with different needs, and another I’ve had for 2 years. Over the years, I’ve helped groom and care for pets belonging to friends and family — including baths, brushing, light nail care, and general pet hygiene. I also have experience with puppies, helping young dogs learn basic routines and good habits with patience and positive reinforcement. I understand how important it is to keep pets on a consistent diet and exercise schedule, and I always prioritize their comfort, emotional well-being, and safety. Whether I’m walking, feeding, or just hanging out with your pet, I care for them like they’re my own. I have the flexibility to provide attentive and reliable pet care every day after 2:30 PM. This gives me plenty of time to focus on your pet’s needs—whether it’s feeding, exercise, grooming, or simply spending quality time together. I’m dedicated to maintaining a consistent routine, so your pet will receive regular care and attention without feeling rushed. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or just companionship, I’m here to make sure your furry friend feels happy and loved while you’re away. When caring for pets in my home, I create a calm, safe, and loving environment where each animal feels comfortable and well-attended. I follow their specific routines for feeding, exercise, and play, ensuring they get plenty of attention and affection throughout the day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and household rules, maintaining consistency with their usual schedules for feeding, walks, and rest. I make sure to keep the home secure and clean, and I provide updates to the owner so they feel confident their pet is well cared for. In both settings, I prioritize the pet’s well-being, comfort, and happiness, treating each one like family.
