About: I love dogs and cats and I have pet sit for family and neighbors for over 10 years. I live in a house in a low-traffic residential neighborhood. Your pet will have access to the first and second floor of the house and all of the furniture, unless you request otherwise. I will spend all day with your pet and establish a care plan with you, including number of / length of walks. Your pet can sleep anywhere in the house. I do not currently have any pets and only take one client at a time. I work full time, so I’m mostly available Friday evening through Sunday evening. However, this may be flexible on a case-by-case basis. I will spend all day with your pet while they are staying with me. I do not have any pets, so your pet(s) will be the only ones in my house at that time. I have a front and back yard and low-traffic neighborhood great for walking.

Ali was great with our pup. She was very responsive, communicative and made us feel very confident our pup was being well cared for. We will recommend her to our friends and anyone else looking for a sitter.

10/10 Erika not only helped take care of my kitten while I was out of town, but also helped clean up any messes that kitty had made while playing. Erika is a highly responsible individual and truly cares for the saftey and well-being of the animals she's watching, making sure to spend time with them so they don't get too lonely. I'll be sure to book again in the future, thank you!

About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life, and caring for them has always been second nature to me. I have two dogs and three cats of my own, so I’m very comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I have also been caring for friends' and family's pets for over 5 years now. While I’m at school and don’t have my animals around, I miss their companionship, which is why I’m so excited to care for others' pets. I treat every animal like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while they're apart from their owners. I'm currently a student and have classes in the early afternoon. I am available every weekday before 11 am and after 2 pm, and have a completely open schedule each weekend to meet your needs! Whether I’m caring for a dog or a cat, my priority is maintaining a safe and loving environment. I am hyper-vigilant and always ensure pets are secure before opening any exits, as well as performing quick sweeps of the environment to check for hazards like small objects or loose food. Further, I believe in building trust through patience and communication. I respect animals' and owners' boundaries, letting shy cats come to me on their own terms and using positive reinforcement with dogs to keep them happy, and following parents' rules and keeping them in the loop! Finally, I strive to keep pets’ routines regular, including keeping feeding areas and litter boxes neat, providing fresh water, and ensuring they get the right balance of exercise, whether it's a walk for your dog or engaging in playtime with your cat. Along with this respect for you and your pets, I will hold the same values for your home.

About: I stand out because I’ve cared for animals my entire life. (6 cats and 3 dogs total) I currently have 2 dogs and 3 cats, many of them rescues. I truly love animals and bring years of hands-on experience to every pet I look after. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I already care for my own pets. I have a flexible schedule, allowing me to plan visits, feedings, walks, and playtime throughout the day. I prioritize safety and trust by closely supervising pets, keeping clean spaces, and following each owner’s routine. Whether in my home or theirs, I provide a calm, secure, and comfortable environment.

About: I appreciate the opportunity to earn your trust by providing your dog with loving care. I have experience raising puppies as well as babysitting senior dogs. I currently have a part-time job working by remote, which provides me with the flexibility to schedule drop in pet services during the work week. I have high standards for keeping my own home clean and orderly, and I bring the same level of skill and respect to the pet care I will provide in your home.

Isabel is so sweet! She helped me last minute and also accommodated a virtual meet and greet for me. I had a repair man in my apartment while I was away and she voluntarily stayed to keep an eye on things and give my cat more loving. Thank you Isabel!!

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was very young. I watched my own dog and her siblings as well as neighbors or friends dogs many times. My dog Maggie actually passed away last year so I have plenty experience with senior dog care and puppies as well. Maggie was a medium-large dog and was 14 when she passed we loved her and made her as comfortable as possible until the end. I've also watched friends and neighbors cats as well so I have experience with both pets! I have class most mornings at 8am so i'm up early and I finish class early! I'm available monday, wed, friday at 11am and my sundays and thursdays are free so i'm available all day!!! I don't have a fenced in yard but plenty of space within the home and a good location for frequent walks! I can crate dogs if needed in your home or stay/watch them while outside, whatever needed.

About: Owned dogs entire life, have trained rescue dogs, and have experience in providing senior care for dogs. My dog is diabetic so I also have experience with insulin injections and oral medication. I have a fenced in backyard and many toys for dogs to play with!

I will always make sure the dogs are happy, have water at all times, toys to play with, etc.

About: Compassionate for pets in every stage of their life. Looking to add joys to your pet’s day while you’re away, from walks to runs to just hanging out. Can handle larger animals and be gentle with smaller pets as well. Happy to take a run with more active pets! I currently am not working, but will be starting a job in the mornings in late May. I can wake up early or stay up late, whatever works for your schedule. I really love to spend time with any animals and will have my undivided attention on your pet. I am attentive and respectful of any specific instruction you may have for the care of your pet and your home.

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and started fostering dogs when I was just 6 years old. That experience taught me patience, responsibility, and how to care for pets with all kinds of personalities and needs. I’m comfortable with puppies who need extra attention and energy, as well as older dogs who may need a gentler approach. What sets me apart is that I don’t just see pet care as a job—I treat every dog like they’re my own. I know how important trust is, and I always make sure pets feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. Since I’m a college student, my schedule is pretty flexible. I’m able to fit pet care into my mornings, afternoons, and evenings depending on what works best for you and your pup. I love being active, so daily walks and playtime are easy to build into my routine. On weekends, I usually have even more free time, which makes it perfect for longer walks or extra visits if needed. I always put safety first—leash walks, fresh water, and sticking to your pet’s routine. I make sure each dog feels comfortable and cared for, whether that means playtime, cuddles, or just keeping a calm environment. Your pup’s happiness and trust are my top priorities!
