About: I treat every dog and cat as if they were my own and aim to provide a stress-free, loving experience for both pets and their owners. I'm currently working full time but have the availability to check in on your pet(s) in the morning and then in the evening when I get off work. I do not work weekends so I can even spend a little longer with your pets doing whatever needs to be done. I have nothing but respect for your home and your pets, therefore your pets will be taken care of and your home will be as you left it.

We’re so grateful we found Kalea. She stayed in our home and took amazing care of our two Labs while we were away over the 4th of July. She stuck to their routine, which really helped keep them calm and happy, especially during a stressful time. It was obvious they got tons of love and attention while we were gone. We came home to two very content pups! We’ll definitely be booking with her again — highly recommend!

Mallory did a great job. Everyone seemed to be in great shape when we got home. The house was in order. No pictures were sent. However, we were on a ship and had little or no internet service. So, we had no complaints. Would hire her again.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ David did a wonderful job caring for our dogs and our home! From the start, he was kind, warm, and attentive, which instantly put us at ease. He took great care of our pups, giving them plenty of love and attention, and he kept us updated with lots of pictures so we never had to worry. It was clear how much he genuinely cared about them. We came home to happy dogs and a well-cared-for house. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would absolutely recommend David to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving to care for their pets.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 5 years old. I have always had a love for dogs. I currently have two dogs and they’re both rescues. It makes my heart happy to have rescued both of them. I treat all dogs as though they are my own and I want the best for all of them. I am now retired and available during the day on weekdays to walk your dog and play with them. I’m available all day on weekends and holidays, depending on my schedule. I’m able to pet-sit in the client’s home. If you’d prefer I watch your pet at my house, I would have to first introduce them to my two dogs to see if they’re compatible.

About: With 3 years of pet sitting experience and two cats of my own, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets. I currently work part time so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets needs with no rush. I love playing with cats to allow them the exercise they need and going on long walks with pups! I have a nice fenced back yard where your animals are able to roam at their own leisure. At the moment though I am not offering services at my residence.

About: Hello! I have always loved animals, and strive to treat all animals as if they were my own. I have grown up around cats and dogs, and currently have a cat, brand new puppy, a guinea pig, gerbils, and fish of my own. I currently work 50-60 hours a week, but most evenings, and weekends are available. I am willing to do drop-ins during my lunch or other breaks throughout my day. I would treat your animals as if they were my own. They will never be left outside unsupervised, and I will strive to keep them healthy and happy.

About: I’ve had considerable experience with cats and dogs — over 50 years of being around them — and I now share my home with three cats. I’m now starting to offer pet care as a way to earn money, and I’ll come to your place for drop-in visits, overnight stays, and house sitting. I’m also open to caring for other pets. I’m a calm, patient person, and animals really respond to that energy. When I arrive, I make enough noise so pets aren’t startled, then I spend a minute talking with them and reading how they’re feeling before feeding, litter breaks, potty breaks, or play — whatever they need at that moment. I’m comfortable giving shy pets the time they need to warm up. I don’t have much experience with special needs care, but I’m happy to handle meds or anxiety with a steady, reassuring approach. If a dog barks, I’ll soothe them with a calm voice; if they pull on the leash, I’ll pause until they settle; if a pet’s shy, I’ll let them come to me. My schedule is flexible and I can work around your dates, including weekends and holidays. People often tell me they appreciate my calm, thoughtful approach — it helps my pets feel safe and at ease. I’d love to meet your cat or dog! IMPORTANT- I am flexible. 😊 I will do my best to accommodate reasonable requests. We will discuss details when I come to meet your pet(s). My schedule is flexible since I’m retired. I can work around your schedule, or adjust my own to fit what your pet needs. I do have a couple evening meetings each month, and I’m busy on Sunday mornings.

About: I’ve been a dog owner my entire life and have had experience owning other pets such as geckos, cats, and snakes. I’ve been a pet sitter for a little over two years. My true passion for pet sitting comes from my desire to be accompanied by them, dogs specifically. I work with dogs of all ages, temperaments, and personalities. Dogs of all backgrounds tend to gravitate towards me and I have never had any negative interactions. While studying for my undergrad, I was actually in charge of all the live animal specimens present on the University grounds. Feeding, exercise, and handling/care were done daily, which can explain my comfortability and familiarity with pet care. I currently am home as I finish my masters degree online so my daily schedule is fairly free. I workout and do part-time contract work when I am not doing schoolwork. I’m extremely flexible and will be willing to meet your needs as best as possible. Simply put, I treat the pets like they are my own. I ensure they are met with sufficient attention, exercise, nutrition, and safety while under my supervision. Minimizing stress is my biggest concern (my dog has separation anxiety so I know how it can be). I’ve found it helpful in the past to use my own dog as a bridge between myself and the client’s pet, as his presence tends to build confidence and reassurance.

About: I’ve enjoyed taking care of pets and house sitting since 1998. I’ve had multiple pets at one time including cats, dogs, fish, and guinea pigs. I work remotely, with flexible hours. My down time activities include reading, which makes keeping an eye on furry family members easy and fun. I enjoy getting fresh air and walking which most dogs usually enjoy as well. I can work from most anywhere, so there’s no problem fitting right in to your pets familiar environment. I do need a desk to work from and somewhere to sleep if overnight care is requested.

Barbara took care of my senior dog while I camped overnight. My pup gets a little stressed when I’m away. I can tell that Barbara took great care of her because she wasn’t anxious when I got home, just happy! She was very friendly and you can tell she really cares for animals. I’ll definitely be booking her again!

Maria was enthusiastic, kind, caring and patient during her two nights of sitting for us. One of our dogs can be difficult to care for due to intense anxiety but Maria navigated this well. She made sure our anxious girl got lots of time outside, which helps her to calm down. We were impressed to see Maddie’s improvement with Maria after only two days. Maria was also very considerate of our house and property. Highly recommend
