She was absolutely phenomenal and we will definitely be using her from now on when we go out of town. We HIGHLY recommended her to care for your fur babies if want someone who would care for them the same way you would !”

10. Yasmin A.
About: Hey there! My name is Yasmin, and I’ve always had a deep love for animals. I grew up with dogs and currently own a dog and cat so I understand the importance of a pet’s well-being and the trust required when someone else cares for them. I’ve only pet sat for friends before but over the past year I’ve had the amazing experience of fostering numerous different pets with the local Humane Society! This has given me experience with all different types of dogs and cats with varying ages and personalities 😊. Whether it’s a walk around the block, playtime in the yard, or cuddles on the couch, I’m committed to providing your pets with the same love and attention they get at home. I look forward to meeting your furry family members and giving them the care they deserve! I’m currently in the military on a M-F schedule. I get a break after PT and during lunch so your pet should never be alone for more than 5 hours. I have a fenced in yard that isn’t the biggest but enough to get the zoomies out! Inside my pets get free rein but are crated at night and when I am gone. Would be open to leaving pets out depending on circumstances.
11. Lizzy C.
“She took such good care of our girls! We were a bit anxious to leave them alone but Lizzy did a great job loving them and sending us pictures to keep our minds at ease!”
12. Cynthia C.
About: I am certified in Pet CPR through Red Cross. I currently have 2 dogs, and have also owned a cat, a hamster and a bird at one point in my life. I am a stay home wife/mom so I am home around the clock with ample time to walk, feed and love on your pet for the best care. I have a big yard both front and back, a crate (if needed) covered back patio, pool, and live out away from the city near a 3 mile walking trail.
13. Penny V.
“Penny is an excellent dog walker. She would come to our home twice a week and walk our dog. With such a busy schedule it took a load off my shoulders knowing Marco (my dog) was being taken care of. We can't do everything for our furbabies but it is nice knowing someone out there can help.”
14. Madison M.
About: I’ve had my own very hyperactive dog for the past 8 years, I’m very experienced with temperamental animals and potty training! I know how to be patient and loving to dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperament Pet care is already a large part of my everyday life as I have 2 pets of my own, I’ve been noticing a desire to interact with more animals and couldn’t think of a better way to do it. Considering I live in an apartment, drop ins and walks are what I’m better suited for, BUT I’m always willing to take on more pets for boarding or day care if pet parents are comfortable. I have multiple rooms to keep pets separate if needed.
15. Kayla b.
“Would recommend! Gave pictures updated when dog supplies were low. Was easy to work with!”
16. Harley B.
“Harley is a wonderful pet sitter. She bonded very quickly with our wild pup Zelda. She is very dependable, knowledgeable and patient. Her rates are very reasonable. I would highly recommend her to anyone else looking for a pet sitter.”
17. Jordan D.
“Jordan takes incredible care of my fur babies. I have a high needs doggo and cat that are happy and well loved when I get home. She tires my high energy dog out before I get home and even strips the guest bed before I return. I cannot recommend Jordan enough!”
18. Martha M.
“Martha is a caring, thoughtful and trustworthy sitter. I always know they will be well taken car of and she regularly sends messages and photos. She's great with dogs, cats and horses.”
19. Kaylen C.
“Kaylen is a friend of mine that I have known for about 3 years! She always watches my cat when I am out of town and does a great job! She makes sure that Malibu is fed, given water, and played with! She always texts me to keep me updated on how she is doing and I love that so I’m not worried! She would be a great choice for watching your animals!”
20. Tyler K.
About: I’ve taken care of animals of mine, my neighbors, and friends and family since I was little. I am able and willing to treat your pets as if they were mine and I am excited to meet them! I currently work part-time and have plenty of time to take care of your loved ones. With enough notice, I can make most scheduled visits work. I love any and all kinds of animals, and I would do everything in my power to make sure they are safe and comfortable with me.
