“We always depend on Katie to take care of our cats, including a diabetic older cat. Feedings are on time and she plays with them and gives them attention. We are already planning to schedule her services for a summer trip. Highly recommended!”

“Jacki was great with our cats! She made sure they had clean, fresh water, litter each day. She cleaned up after them. She took out the trash and washed their dishes daily. They both liked her and they don't like everyone immediately. Thank you, Jacki!”

About: I provide dependable, caring pet care with a focus on keeping pets comfortable and following their normal routines while their owners are away. I have experience caring for dogs and cats, including feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, companionship, and overnight stays. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, so I follow each owner’s instructions carefully. I’m comfortable caring for multiple-pet households and will keep you updated so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pets and home are being looked after. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to provide dependable care throughout the week, including weekends. During house-sitting stays, I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship. I may leave during the day for other commitments, but I’ll make sure your pets receive the care, attention, and breaks we agree on before your booking. I care for pets in their own home, where they can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I carefully follow your instructions for feeding, walks, potty breaks, medications, crates, doors, gates, and any special needs. I treat your home with respect and keep you updated with messages and photos while you’re away. Before a booking, I like to learn about your pet’s routine, personality, and any important safety information so I can provide the best care possible.

About: I have had cats and dogs pretty much all of my life whenever my family is gone. I am the one who babysits and walks them. I can even put diapers on a dog that is going through heat if need be lol! I am working part time, but for the most part I am very flexible and will be ready if you need to reach out to me for any pet sitting or dog walking. For the pets in my home, I usually always take her on walks morning, noon and night to make sure all of their potty requirements are good making sure they have food and water through all hours of the day.

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, growing up on a farm where I cared for everything from horses and pigs to cats and dogs. Being the go-to pet sitter for my friends and family has given me so much experience, and I’d love to bring that same care to your pets. I have my own super friendly dog and cat at home who love making new friends, so your furry family members will be in great company and I’ll will treat them as my own. I am not shy to big dogs, my first ever dog was a Great Dane (gentle giants) as shown in my pictures named Malcom so all big dogs are welcomed. I can handle dogs who tug on the leashes, no matter the size, large or small so that will not be an issue at all. As of right now I’m only doing check ins and walking while I get acquainted with this app and new faces and puppers. Eventually I will do overnights. I’m happy to answer any question, no such thing as a dumb question. Especially when it comes to the peace of mind knowing your pet is safe. Thank you for your patience and I hope to hear from you! 🩷 I am a college student, and I am currently not working to focus on my studies. I figured pet sitting would be the best thing for me because I love animals and I can study, or do school work while I do it. I am willing to both pet sit at my or your house. I have a small fenced in backyard that is secure and safe for your pet. I have a dog named Sadie and a cat named Shayla at home who would love to meet some new furry friends! I would treat your pet as if they were my own with lots of love and care. I’m good at picking up the phone and can give updates as much as you need. Being a pet parent, I too love to see pictures and text letting me know that my dog is okay while I’m away. It is really hard to leave your pets behind while you go away, so that’s why I would make it very easy and comfortable for both you and your pet.

About: Friends, family, and co-workers often rely on me for dog and cat sitting. I have a pretty flexible schedule and have cared for small dogs and big dogs. I frequently go on walks when I’m off work and I’d like to take a dog with me. I’m not at the point in my life to have a dog of my own so I adore loving on other people’s fur babies! I’m pretty flexible early mornings and most evenings. I work a pretty standard job Monday through Friday and it would be no problem to work around it. I do not care for pets out of their own home. I prefer to watch pets in their own environment. I feel like that is best for them!

About: I have experience in clinic and shelter environments, especially with fearful or reactive pets. I also have experience with exotic animals and have taken care of personal pets my entire life! I’m reliable for feeding, walking, medicating, providing enrichment, and more. I’m currently available mornings, evenings, and overnight. With notice, I can invite animal-friendly small/medium pets into my home. For larger pets or those who don’t enjoy animal company, I can do drop-ins or walks at your home! I have my own friendly dogs and cats in my home. The small animals in my home are kept in a separate room. I have a long leash to give your pup some playtime outside, or we can take good walks on a regular leash. I can crate, medicate, or provide enrichment for your pets as needed (with instructions), always with compassionate care.

About: Hello there! I'm so glad you found my profile! I am a life-long animal lover who has been drawing horses since I could hold a crayon, and I've been caring for all kinds of animals since I was a child. We had rabbits, guinea pigs, mice, cats, dogs, and horses at various times while I was growing up, and my childhood dream was to have lots of cats and lots of horses some day. Well I currently have 3 cats and 1 horse, so that's something! Haha. We also have two ducks and are planning to get more shortly. We've had as many as 5 at a time in the past. I've had pets of my own since my college days, and not surprisingly after having so many animals in my life, I ended up getting my degree in Animal Science! I also volunteered at the local Humane Society walking dogs while in college, and cared for pigs, poultry, horses, cows, and more rodents throughout my education. I also worked at a doggy daycare and boarding kennel for a time after college. These days my animal care is mostly directed at my own pets, but you can never have enough animals in your life in my opinion, and so here I am, ready to spoil your fur babies for you if you need! I currently work from home 3 days a week and am lucky enough to have a pretty flexible schedule during those days as well. That means I can take the time now and then to drop in and check on your pets for you if you need some extra help while you're away! Whenever I drop-in on your pets, I will stick to the routines you already have established for them at home to minimize any stress, so your pet will hardly be able to tell you're gone! But I will also definitely take the time to give them plenty of pets and play-time too, if that's something they would love! ^_^

About: I've been the go-to pet sitter for friends and family for years, including week-long stays watching dogs in their own homes, as well as regular check-ins on both indoor and outdoor cats. I know how much routine and comfort matter to pets when their people are away, and I take that seriously. I'm a lifelong cat person at heart—my cat Gemma (full name Gemma J Hendrix Shanahan, if we're being formal) is a black cat with a spunky personality, and my actual life mission is making sure she's the coziest gal in the world. That same mindset carries over to every pet I care for: attentive, affectionate, and tuned in to what makes each pet feel safe and comfortable. I'm currently in a flexible stretch while I await my bar exam results, which means I have plenty of availability right now for walks, drop-ins, and even extended or overnight stays. I know that kind of open schedule can be hard to come by, so I'm happy to be flexible around your travel dates or last-minute needs. I take caring for pets very seriously, and safety is always my first priority. Whether we're on a walk, playing in the backyard, or just hanging out on the couch, I provide individualized, attentive care based on what each pet needs and is comfortable with. In a client's home, I stick closely to your routines—feeding schedules, walk times, medications, and any specific rules you have—so your pet's environment stays as consistent and stress-free as possible while you're away. I never leave pets unsupervised in unfamiliar or unsecured areas, and I keep a close eye on behavior and body language so I can catch early signs of stress, illness, or discomfort. I'm also happy to send photo or video updates so you have peace of mind while you're away, and I'll always reach out directly if anything seems off rather than waiting until you're back.

About: As a dedicated pet sitter and walker, I bring a lifelong passion for animal care to every furry friend I meet. With a wealth of experience across all life stages, I understand the diverse needs of pets, from energetic pups to gentle seniors. My commitment to their happiness and well-being means that each dog receives tailored attention and love, ensuring they feel safe, cherished, and joyful while they’re in my care. Pet sitting and walking fit seamlessly into my daily routine because I already own a mobile business and am frequently out and about. This flexibility allows me to easily integrate pet care into my schedule, ensuring that I can provide attentive and timely service for your pets. My established routine means I can offer reliable and convenient care while managing my other commitments effectively. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their routine and comfort. I follow the established feeding, exercise, and medication schedules, ensuring consistency with their normal environment. I also focus on providing companionship and attention to keep them happy and relaxed. I make sure to respect the client's home, following any specific instructions and leaving the space clean and tidy. Regular updates and photos are provided to keep pet owners informed and reassured about their pets' well-being.

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
