About: I have over 3 years of hands-on experience working as a kennel attendant and veterinary assistant, caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. My responsibilities included feeding, walking, administering medications, cleaning, monitoring health and behavior, and ensuring every dog felt safe and comfortable. I am experienced with puppies, senior dogs, and anxious pets, and I know how to recognize signs of stress or illness. I treat every pet like my own and prioritize their safety, happiness, and well-being at all times. Pet owners can trust that their dogs will receive reliable, attentive, and compassionate care with me. I have a flexible schedule and can provide reliable pet care throughout the week. I am available for walks, drop-ins, and overnight care depending on your pet’s needs. My experience working in a veterinary and kennel setting has made pet care a natural part of my daily routine, and I prioritize consistency, safety, and attention for every animal I care for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. With my veterinary and kennel experience, I am trained to recognize signs of stress, illness, or discomfort and respond appropriately. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and routines provided by owners. I maintain a calm, clean, and secure environment and treat every pet with patience, compassion, and professional-level care.

“Sarah did an incredible job taking care of our 3 cats while we were out of town for the weekend! It was our first time using Rover, so we were naturally a little nervous, but Sarah did a great job assuring us before our trip that she would spend quality time with our cats and take care of their every need. She sent over great photos and updates with each visit, and even got our shy cat to come out and play! We are so glad we found Sarah and would trust her to watch our cats anytime! We came home to tidy litter boxes and our cats were very relaxed and well taken care of. Thank you so much, Sarah!”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life. We have a 2 year old golden puppy. Who rested as if she’s part of the family. She is soo loved and so spoiled. I also worked at a groomers shop so I have a lot of experience with different dogs. I am currently working part time and attending short days at college four days a week. I have a lot of free time though and especially on my weekends I have a lot of time At home my dog has a perimeter collar so she is free to wander about our yard as she wishes. When I am dog sitting I always have the dog on a leash and I stay outside wi he them the entire time they are outside

About: I’ve had animals throughout my entire life. When I was younger, my parents ran a boarding kennel and my father bred dogs. I grew up on a farm with about five horses, 35 dogs, several cats, a bird, lizards, fish, hermit crabs, etc. My father trained my brother and I to race sled dogs at a young age and we did that for several years along with horseback riding. With that being said, I have extensive experience with different types of animals, and I am confident that you’re fur baby will be in good hands and have the time of their life while under my supervision. Please feel free to reach out with any questions and I hope to hear from you soon! I am currently working at a private residence where I make my own hours , so I have plenty of time to take care of your baby! I can accommodate you and your pet(s)in whichever way you desire! I usually bring my little tuxedo cat with me on trips if it’s an overnight, but if you would rather me not, we can always work something out and discuss our options! (:

About: I currently offer care just for cats but I am open to caring for dogs based on the situation. I'm an animal lover regardless of type I am a stay at home parent but both of my kids are now in school so I have lots of free time once they are dropped off and in the evenings when my husband finishes work. He also works from home which gives us a lot of flexibility. I will be very thorough in cleaning and refilling anything your cats need and I am more than happy to relax with them or play to get their energy out. I have a lot of experience with cats with all different personalities so I will do my best to help them feel safe and comfortable with me.

“Nicole is the perfect sitter - she’s communicative, punctual, and cares about her pet charges as well as their humans. Viv was so happy to see her in all the photos she sent - what a pleasure to work with her! Viv will miss her and is already wondering when I’m going away again, so she can see Nicole! Thank you!!!”

About: I had over ten dogs growing up, both large and small, and have had three cats. All have lived to an old age and had a wonderful quality of life! I work from 7am-3pm Monday-Friday with occasional work from homes, so I can provide pet care in the early morning and/or afternoon/evening! On weekends, I am flexible! I focus on building trust and affection with pets, ensuring play time and pets are on their terms, giving space as needed! I am big on safety and keeping a watchful eye on them.

“Everything was great working with Shantalee, I’m looking forward to have them sit for me again!”

About: I have taken care of my own and all of my family members pets for many, many years. Not only dogs and cats but also snakes, birds, mice, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, gerbils, fish, lizards and chinchillas. My family was always saving animals and had a great love for all animals. I am pretty open and retired and looking to spend time with animals. I prefer a smaller breed of dogs if needing to walk for safety reasons. If a fenced in yard is provided, I would be open to larger dogs as well. I will not be caring for other pets in my home. I will be available to do drop in visits for most animals and walks.

About: I have experience with animals that have special needs. I have been caring for my own animals since childhood and would like to bring in some added income doing something that I love to do. I have a flexible schedule between my full time job that would allow me to go to your home in the mornings and evenings if that is what you wish. I am responsible and conscientious and love all animals. My animals come first - always. I will treat your animals with the same love that I treat my own. That is important to me!

About: Hello! My name is Kerin. My love for these 4, sometimes 3, legged k-9’s we call family! My love for them runs through my family’s blood as we have a dog rescue, Pooches Out Of Puerto Rico. As you can imagine I’ve worked with all sorts of dogs. Some totally goofy to some begin extremely aggressive due to fear or pain. You name it I’ve experienced it. There’s nothing I won’t do for these hairy family members. DM me so we can chat about scheduling you a vacation whether it’s a long, extravagant trip or a short sweet little trip. I’m your girl and can’t wait to hear from you! It doesn’t matter if you have a fence or not. I can take your dog/s out for walks or go to play parks. You tell me what they and it consider it already done! Of course expect some pictures while your away!

“Sophie took wonderful care of our two kittens while we were away on a long trip. Since it was our first time using a sitter, we were pretty nervous but she was very communicative and attentive which gave us so much peace of mind. We could tell that she was going above and beyond to make sure they had lots of love and attention. When we came home, it was clear they had been well cared for—happy, healthy, and content. We’re so grateful and would love for Sophie to watch our girls again sometime.”
