“Katherine walked my pup, Bruno. They went for an hour and Bruno was tired out when they returned. I really appreciate that Katherine responded timely with her availability as my request for a dog walker was last minute. Thank you for being there when we needed you! ❤️”

About: Hello! I have been a dog owner and have kept aquariums both as a hobby and professionally for 10+ years. I have over 425 volunteer hours logged combined as an aquarist with the Monterey Bay Aquarium, and with the Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter. As a personal assistant, baby sitter and dog sitter, I am professional, detail-oriented, friendly and motivated to engage with your pets and give the highest quality care I can. As of this summer, I have graduated with a Bachelors in Biology from UC Santa Cruz, where I worked within two different labs focused on invertebrate and fish research and husbandry tasks, as well as a front desk admin and floor manager at the Seymour Marine Discovery Center. I currently work as a contract field scientist with the Bureau of Land Management, based in Santa Fe. I have a clean driving record and my own vehicle, and am flexible for overnights and check-ins, though do reach out to me to confirm my availability. I am currently employed full-time with a nontraditional schedule, and will communicate with you on times I may need to be out of the house for work. I will go over with you a detailed questionnaire to determine all aspects of your pet's care and schedule, and send update messages at least once a day.

About: I am a certified dog and cat lover (I have had both as pets over the years). I've cared for animals of all ages, temperaments and breeds in my many years of pet sitting with love and affection. Currently I am house/pet sitting in New Mexico as I decide if I am relocating back. Available Nov 8 to 18th as well as after Dec 13th 2026 I had a Great Dane Weimeraner mix for 12 years so I am comfortable with large dogs. I have dog /cat/ house sat for 24 years as well as being hired professionally to care take properties on the island of Hawaii, in Portland,Oregon, Los Angeles, Florida and New Mexico (People trust me to take care of their luxury properties and beloved animals!) I'm a great communicator, neat, clean responsible mature Female artist. My grandfather was a veterinarian in Greenwich Village and I'd visit him in his office as a kid. I was in AWE of what he did. He sent a duck home with my Mom one time and there is a pic of me in the bath with a duck at age 5. I worked in a holistic vet's office in LA as an all around assistant, caring for people's pets post surgery, walking lots and lots of dogs, assisting with minor surgical procedures, welcoming people and pets into the office. I am comfortable giving medicine, walking your dog, playing with your cat, treating your home as if it were my own. I'd love to be on your rover roster as someone you can count on to help you with your beloved pet! I'm a full time artist (and budding author) with a home office and studio in old NE neighborhood of St. Pete. My hours are my own so I am extremely flexible to accommodate you and your pet's needs. Afternoons and early evening are ideal times for me but I am happy to include mornings as well. Whatever is needed! I've studied many metaphysical modalities and am extremely tuned in to the energy of animals. I swam with wild dolphins on Hawaii for 30 years and "talk" animal. I will be happy to care for your pet in your home. Currently I am unable to host animals where I am staying. I will exercise, feed and spend time with your critters in your absence and follow your instructions for their care.

About: Upon having taken care of pets for quite some time now. I have learned that all animals need love and compassion like us. I have cared for a variety of animals from mice to snakes and cats to goats. All of the time learning what to do and not to do with every animal. I've always had animals in my life ever since I was a little girl and I loved to caring for them. I was a foster parent for cats a few years back but had to stop when we moved. I've own a few dogs and enjoy the company they have to give to us. I would be more than happy to take care of your babies and treat them as my own.

“Eliza was wonderful with our pets! She gave us daily updates and photos, and was very easy to communicate with throughout the whole process. She was even willing to stop before the booking began to make sure that she would be a good fit for us and my pup. We will definitely be booking with her again.”

About: 🏳️‍🌈 safe space 🏳️‍⚧️ 💚 With over 9 years of experience as a dedicated pet caregiver, I love to connect deeply with your pets, ensuring they feel loved, respected, and safe in my care. 🩷 I have experience with puppy care/training, as well as senior care for dogs. I can manage high energy walks, or relax at a snail pace for the slower angels. I have a confident presence and will lead your dog while remaining patient and calm. 💛 I will always read your pet care guides if applicable, and will do my best to solve problems independently, safely and effectively. 💙 Your animals are your life! I will do everything I can to ensure you get to let out a sigh of relief while you’re away from them! 🧡 I am adaptive and flexible, and can often work within your scheduling needs, so please do not hestitate to let me know how I can accommodate you. 💜 I know how deeply vulnerable it can be to let a stranger (or even bestie for that matter) enter your home while you’re away. I value boundaries as a top priority and will always do my best to protect your privacy while moving about your house.

About: I’ve taken care of my family friend’s dog for 7 years and have experience feeding, walking, playing with, and keeping pets comfortable while their owners are away. I’m responsible, dependable, and enjoy spending time with animals. I’ll make sure your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. I work full-time during the week, but I’m available all day on Sundays and Mondays. Pet care fits well into my schedule, and I enjoy spending time with dogs. I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care while you’re away. I have a secure fenced yard and two friendly dogs that can provide companionship if your pet is comfortable around other animals. I always prioritize safety, supervision, and making pets feel comfortable in a new environment. I will follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. If needed, I can also crate your dog to ensure they are safe and comfortable

About: In the past, I have taken care of dogs and cats for family members. Occasionally, I am also volunteering to walk my neighbor (schitsu) dog. I am available on the days when I am off work (usually Wed, Sat, Sun). I will know my work schedule a month in advance. I can easily crate your dog if needed. I can provide play time. I am not afraid of large breeds and physically capable of walking large dog.

About: I’ve always had a special love for animals and the outdoors. I grew up surrounded by pets and have had multiple pups throughout my life, including my two sweet Border Collies, Meko and Oppie. They brought so much joy and personality into my life, and caring for them taught me how much love, patience, and attention our pets deserve. I also have a background as a wilderness guide, so being outside and exploring nature is a huge part of who I am. I know how much dogs love getting outside, sniffing around, going on adventures, and simply enjoying the fresh air—and I’d love to give your pup that same experience! Over the years, I’ve also cared for friends’ and family members’ dogs for weeks at a time, so I’m comfortable taking on the responsibility of caring for a pet while their person is away. I’m attentive to their routines, personalities, and individual needs, and I want every pet in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I have a friendly, easygoing spirit that animals seem to pick up on right away. Whether your pup wants an adventure, a long walk, some playtime, or simply a cozy companion to hang out with, I’m happy to be there for them. 🐾 I have a flexible schedule and am available throughout the week, which allows me to give your pets plenty of time, attention, and care. Pet sitting fits naturally into my day-to-day life because I love being outdoors, staying active, and having animals by my side. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine, whether they need morning walks, midday check-ins, playtime, or evening care. I enjoy getting outside for walks and adventures, but I’m also perfectly happy spending a quiet day at home keeping your pet company. My goal is to make pet care feel seamless for both you and your pet, while keeping their normal routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. Your pet’s safety and your peace of mind are my top priorities. I’m attentive to your pet’s needs, their routine, and any special instructions you leave for me. I take the responsibility of caring for someone’s pet seriously and will always treat them with patience, kindness, and respect. As a wilderness guide, I’m comfortable being responsible in changing environments and staying aware of my surroundings. I’m also a big believer in clear communication, so I’ll keep you updated and let you know how your pet is doing while you’re away. I’ll treat your home and your pet with the same care and respect I would want for my own. 🐾

About: Look no further!! I’m the answer to all your dog’s needs… I respond quickly, so please reach out. Let’s do a meet and greet ASAP!! Please read my profile and client reviews, and check out my photo gallery where you’ll see what kind of fun that your dog and I will have on a daily basis. I send tons of pictures and videos. Headed out of town?? I’d love to create a seamless stress free opportunity for you to get away. Your dog(s) can stay at my place with AC, a fenced in yard, and many neighborhood parks nearby. My house is in a safe and quiet neighborhood right across the street from Frenchy Field. If you prefer your dog to have the familiarity of your home, let’s chat about housesitting. Guaranteed fun either way. I love all dogs unconditionally. I can provide a smaller pack environment for your dog rather than a kennel where there could be 50 dogs at a time. Yikes!! I only accept dogs from one to two owners at a time so please plan ahead as I may get booked very quickly. This ensures that I can give your dogs the attention and care that they deserve. My daily routine revolves around my dog pack needs. Our routine is generally morning food, walk, park, play, chill, and then repeat in the evening. I work from home so I am flexible and can accommodate most needs for your pets. Everything from simple walks and feeding to extended stays at my place or yours, it sounds like fun to me. I have a full time best friend and dog named Spreckles who is pretty close to perfect. His nickname is Sprex. He is Hawaiian, so naturally he is very friendly and mellow with tons of Aloha. My number one priority is pack safety. I follow a daily routine and consistent schedule with my pack. Our day always starts with a nice walk to a nearby park. I use my own custom made leash system that I can walk many dogs at the same time, safely and securely. When we’re not out walking or at the park we do a lot of chilling and hanging out around our house and fenced in yard. I promote the pack mentality among my dogs as I am always their pack leader who ensures their safety and protection all the time. I’m glad to use your dog’s crate at my house whenever I am not home if needed (not typical). Sometimes I take the pack out on planned field trips, usually afternoons and weekends, to various places throughout the area. Frenchy Park is right across the street from my house and super fun for the pups. I treat and protect each dog as if they were my own and love them all unconditionally. FYI, I don’t introduce my pack to other dogs that we don’t know, to avoid any unwanted drama and to keep everyone safe. New dogs really shouldn’t be introduced while on leashes anyway. I speak the language of dogs and am confident around them always. I am always their alpha who provides a fun and safe space for my pack.

About: I grew up with dogs and have had 3 of them myself. I currently have a 93 pound, 8 year old Pyrenees mix. My wife and I also have a sweet 11 year old cat and have had 5 other adopted cats over the last 25 years. I am familiar with walking dogs, giving attention to both dogs and cats, feeding schedules and issuing medications. I am currently working part time and I am flexible to work around your schedule. I am available Monday through Saturday. I am located in Agua Fria and have reliable transportation. I have a full acre in Agua Fria and a fenced yard for both my dog and cat. I walk my dog twice a day and spend lots of time with him and my cat outside in a safe, protected environment.

About: I have experience with all animals - farm animals, aquatic animals, dogs, cats, feral animals too. I love goats and miss my farm. I can't have animals of my own at this time and just looking for a rewarding side hustle. I find healing in the presence of animals. I'm currently available seven days a weeks - flexible and reliable. I recently have been laid off from my regular employer. I am looking for an easygoing rewarding solution. Animals could provide so much more to me than an income. Especially at this time in my life. Transition is hard but Im determined. I ensure safety and routine for your pet. I will do everything I can to ensure they are well cared for and safe in your environment or mine.

“Ruby LOVES Melissa and had so much fun on their walk! She was doggy-smiling the rest of the day, and was just resting and calm. You can tell it was great exercise with lots of mental stimulation as well! I’ll be booking again very soon!”
