Claudia has been fantastic in going to walk Bodhi. She’s communicative and takes lots of pictures & Bodhi really likes their walking adventures. He was very receptive of her from the first meeting so I’m thrilled to have her stopping by a few times a week to take him outside while I’m at work.

About: I’ve had pets all my life, from Great Danes and kittens, to ferrets and lizards. I have pet sat for strangers, family and friends and have volunteered at a shelter. I previously worked at a grooming salon. I currently have a French bulldog and a cat. I work from home full time and have my son here at night. I am available whenever needed and can also offer transportation if needed. I have 100% supervision and a not-so-large space with baby gates. I have a 6 year old that is very active so I’m used to being alert/safe all the time.

About: I have taken care of all kinds of animals from dogs to cats and even rats. I have pet-sat for neighbors and family since I was 15 and have recently gotten a new cat since moving to college. I have also dealt with animals with special needs including my family dog that has seizures and another family dog that is deaf, blind and has to receive insulin injections after every meal. My schedule is currently very open and I am available any day throughout the week as well as weekends. I am not currently looking for too many overnight stays because I do have a cat of my own to watch after. I have a very spoiled cat of my own that gets all of the attention that I can provide as well as daily play time and brushing. I keep to a very strict feeding schedule because my cat does have some food insecurity issues so I try to be very mindful of that. While taking care of my family’s dogs that require medical attention, I keep a check off list next to the food in order to insure that their medications that are either taken with or taken right after food are administered accordingly.

About: I currently have 3 beloved torti cats - a kitten and two seniors. I grew up around animals my whole life - I've had cats, dogs, hamsters, mice, fish, and more. I spend any chance I can get with animals. I've always cared for my friends and family's pets as they were my own. I'm well equipped to administer medication and I have experience with kittens/puppies up to senior age. Your pet is well taken care of and loved as if they were my own 🤍 I am flexible and can accommodate timing to your pets schedule. Whether they need a morning drop-in, a midday walk, or a full playtime session, I can tend to your fur baby's needs. Upon greeting them, I provide full attention to your pet. I will give them play time, cuddles, and any designated meals or medications. I ensure they feel secure and calm while their loved one is away.

About: I've had at least one pet in my house my whole life. I've always been the one in charge of walking them, feeding them, cleaning up after them, and the like. I've had both cats and dogs throughout my life so I have great affinity and affection for both. I'm currently in-between jobs right now, as the video editing market is troubles at the moment, so I have a good amount of free time available to me. I have a car and can drive the distance needed to take care of your pet. I would have no trouble creating, walking, or taking care of your pet based on your needs.

About: I have always had dogs and loved animals my whole life. I currently have two dogs and one cat at home. I doggy sit often for friends and loving having play dates with other dogs. My family is used to having others spend days with us at a time and we love to snuggle in bed together. I’m a teacher so I’m free all summer long to be with your babies. I have a dog that is my morning girl. She will get up at 5 am and we go get breakfast and go outback for potty break. We go out at 8 am for a walk and usually have the doggy dog open for them to go outback back for the bathroom during the day. I will do a final walk at around 8pm and get everyone all the night time routine of dinner and meds and greenies. I have a fenced back yard. It’s very large and I teach any new dog to use the doggy door. I love snuggling during the day on the couch with them or in bed. We sometimes go out to the park and really just want for their needs.

About: I've grown up around dogs my whole life — shih tzus, pitbulls, boxers, labs, german shepherds, pugs, and more. My first job was at a pet boarding facility where I cared for dogs of all ages, taking them on walks, trips to the pool, and even managing medication. Dogs hold such a special place in my heart that I still volunteer at animal shelters in my free time - I truly cannot imagine life without them. Your pup will be treated like family, and I will always communicate quickly and clearly. I'm a college student who loves to be active and can't wait to get outside with your pup! I'm available before 4pm on weekdays and I'm always flexible and willing to work around whatever works best for you and your dog. 😊 When caring for your dog in their own home, my top priority is making sure they feel safe, and comfortable. I will follow your routine exactly so your pup's schedule stays consistent and stress free. At home I have two Shih Tzus and a doodle who are on daily medication, so I'm no stranger to providing meds and keeping a consistent routine. You'll receive photo updates throughout every visit so you never have to wonder how they're doing, and I always make sure your home is secure before I leave.

About: I do boarding, drop-ins, and walking. For boarding we are limiting 2 dogs (plus our one golden retriever) at a time so they can be treated like family and not get so overwhelmed. No aggressive dogs for boarding please. They will hang out with us during the day and sleep with us at night. We go outside every 1-2 hrs during the day. You’ll get updates with pics two times a day but you are always welcome to text me if you want any additional check ins. I truly love being a pet sitter. It brings me so much joy. I have experience with puppies to senior and special needs dogs as well as taking care of cats. I’m responsible and dependable. And I loooooove animals. I’m one of those that can’t watch videos where animals get hurt or it upsets me the whole day. If I’m showing up in your search then either my husband or myself will be home and off work that entire time. Your dog will be our priority. Most days we board one of us is home the entire day, but at most we would only leave for about an hour. And again, that’s rare. I am very responsible and you can trust me with your loved little ones. My husband is also present if needed and he has a huge heart for dogs.

About: Growing up surrounded by animals gave me a deep intuition for their needs, but what sets me apart today is my meticulous care and completely open availability. My high attention to detail means I excel at maintaining strict routines—whether that’s tracking puppy training boundaries, administering senior care with patience, or closely following specific dietary instructions. Your pet gets my undivided attention, and you get transparent, detailed updates every single visit. Right now, pet care is my primary focus! I have completely open, flexible availability throughout the entire week. Because I don't have a rigid 9-to-5 schedule, I can easily accommodate your pet's specific routine—whether they need early morning check-ins, midday walks, or late-night visits. This flexibility also means I am readily available for last-minute requests, and your pet will always get my undivided attention without being rushed. When caring for pets during drop-in visits, safety and respect for your home are my top priorities. I treat your space with the utmost care, ensuring doors and gates are securely locked, keys are safely managed, and everything is left exactly as I found it. For your pet, I maintain a highly consistent routine to minimize stress while you're away. I strictly follow all feeding, exercise, and safety instructions, and I keep a sharp eye out for any subtle changes in their behavior or environment. You can always expect clear communication and a detailed update with photos after every single visit.

About: For the last 5 years I have worked as a Kennel Assistant at various companies and I now currently work at Woodstock Pet Resort! I love working with animals and have the trainings needed to care for your furry animal. At my job, I feed and medicate animals, watch for body language, and monitor over 25 dogs at a time during day care. ⭐️ $20 off with this link below!!⭐️ https://www.rover.com/sit/cayleg55582 I work part time, so on the times I’m not available, I work at Woodstock Pet Resort to care for other animals! I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and safe while their owner is away. I make sure they have fresh food and water, bathroom breaks, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention. I also keep the home clean and send regular photo and text updates so owners know their pets are doing well. I’m patient, attentive, and always try to make pets feel calm and cared for in their own environment. I love working with dogs with high energy and making sure they end the day sleepy! I have also felt with more anxious dogs, like ones scared of thunderstorms. I know it is not easy, but I am willing to slow down, match their pace and do what’s needed, to make them feel as at peace as possible.

About: I’ve grown up around animals and have been dog sitting for over 5 years. I currently have a rescue dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to have someone patient, trustworthy, and attentive caring for your pets. I’m very detail-oriented, love staying active with walks and playtime, and I’ll make sure your pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I’m also happy to follow specific routines, administer basic care instructions, and give extra patience and attention to shy, anxious, or senior pets. Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I already spend a lot of time caring for my own dog and staying active throughout the week. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, walks, playtime, feeding, and check-ins throughout the day. I genuinely enjoy being around animals, so making time for their care is something I look forward to. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of attention, exercise, and playtime, and I always keep the home clean and respectful. I also love sending updates and photos so owners can feel reassured while they’re away. In my own home, pets would have a safe, calm, and loving environment with lots of supervision and attention. I understand every pet has different needs and personalities, so I always adjust my care to what makes them feel most comfortable and secure.

One of the nicest and most conscientious young entrepreneurs I’ve met! Was punctual, courteous, and exhibits a genuine love for the animals he cares for. Normally Grace is a bit skittish around people she doesn’t know but she took to him pretty quickly and they had a fun walk. I will have no hesitations in retaining Andrew to walk or care for either of my dogs again and neither should you.
