About: I absolutely love pet sitting and caring for both cats and dogs! Spending time with animals brings me so much joy, whether it’s cuddling with a cat or playing with a dog. Walking dogs is especially fun—I enjoy their energy and excitement while ensuring they get great exercise! I am working part time so I am free and available to care for your pets after 2pm Thursday - Sunday! I look forward to helping to care for your beloved animal. I believe pets thrive best in the environment they know and trust, so I provide care that keeps them comfortable and stress-free. I pay close attention to their needs, respect their boundaries, and take the time to earn their trust. I engage with each pet in the way that suits them best—whether it’s rigorous play for energetic pets or gentle reassurance for those who need a calmer approach—ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well cared for.

“We booked Emily at the last minute and she was able to stop by on short notice. Our cat was well taken care of and she provided great updates!”


13. Ryleigh M.
About: I have had dogs my whole life and I recently moved half across the country without my sweet 4 year old pup. I would love to give my love to someone else’s best friend when they need help! I love going on walks, playing, and giving good belly rubs. I’m a grad student who usually studies from home, so I have time in my day to care for pets, take them on walks, feed them, or provide company for a few hours. More time available on weekends and overnights. I live in a very safe apartment complex. There is a fenced in dog run area if having a dog at my own home. I do not currently have pets of my own living with me. In clients homes, I will treat their places with respect and care and follow their rules for their pets.


14. Victoria L.

“Victoria was great with all 3 of my dogs. It tends to be a circus wrangling all 3, but she did an awesome job. Victoria is attentive to detail and great at communicating. We will definitely be booking with her again!”


15. Jolie D.

“Jolie had been great when we needed her. My dogs are problematic because they fight with eachother and need to remain separate at all times, which makes letting them out a pain. That said Jolie had no problem following the instructions we left her and the dogs were always happy to see her. Highly reccomended. Thank you!”


16. Bianca M.
“You can really see that Bianca loves to work with dogs and cats. In my experience with her as our sitter/walker, She always goes above and beyond to make sure both pets are happy and comfortable. She is also really great at keeping them entertained when we are away a week at a time for work. She has always been reliable and trustworthy.”
