About: Hi, I'm Cece! I have a deep love for animals and years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages and sizes. My home is currently shared with a sweet, energetic Lab-Boxer mix named Felix and a wonderful senior cat named Baby, so I am incredibly comfortable navigating the distinct needs of both high-energy dogs and older, more sensitive cats. Whether your pet requires a high-intensity play session, careful routine tracking, a patient approach for senior care, or just a lot of focused attention, I treat every animal like family. I’m reliable, attentive to detail, and dedicated to making sure your pets feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I work full-time as a pharmacy technician, but my schedule leaves me with plenty of dedicated time for pet care! I have my weekends completely off and am fully available for boarding and house sitting then. During the week, I have open availability for walks, drop-ins, and feeding routines both before I head into work and after I get off work in the evenings. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. In my home, visiting pets will be welcomed by my friendly Lab-Boxer mix, Felix, and my senior cat, Baby. I always introduce animals slowly and under direct supervision. Whether in my home or yours, I maintain a secure environment, provide a cozy setup for your pet personal preferences, and keep a watchful eye to ensure everyone stays happy, safe, and relaxed.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, and I truly can’t imagine life without them. They bring us so much love, comfort, joy, and companionship, and I believe they deserve that same love right back every single day. Whether your pup loves long walks, playing frisbee, exploring the sand, soaking up sunshine, or curling up for endless snuggles, I’m here to make sure they feel happy, safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I adore dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, and I always strive to treat every dog like they’re my own. It would genuinely be an honor to care for your best fur friend and give you peace of mind knowing they’re in loving hands. 🐾 Pet care fits very naturally into my routine because I already spend a lot of time caring for and being around dogs in my everyday life. I’m available most weekends, as well as many evenings after work, which gives me plenty of time to dedicate to walks, drop-ins, playtime, feedings, and quality attention for your pets. I genuinely enjoy staying active and spending time outdoors, so caring for pets feels less like “work” and more like something I truly love doing. I’m committed to making sure every pet receives dependable care, attention, exercise, affection, and consistency while their owners are away. I always do my best to make pets feel safe, comfortable, loved, and as stress-free as possible while their owners are away. I know every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I take the time to follow instructions carefully and give them individualized care and attention. In a client’s home, I aim to keep your pet’s normal routine consistent. Whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication, crate routines, bedtime habits, or just extra cuddle time. I love staying active with dogs through walks, outdoor play, beach or park adventures (if approved), and interactive play like fetch or frisbee. For more relaxed or senior pets, I’m equally happy to slow things down and provide calm companionship, patience, and gentle care. I also understand how important communication is, so I make sure to send regular updates, photos, and check-ins so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away. My goal is always to treat every pet like family and create an environment where they feel safe, loved, and genuinely cared for.

Preston is wonderful with my Calico, Princess. I always know she is happy. He sends pictures or her getting treats, enjoying her time in the sunroom, and then happy at play. Preston is so appreciated when I know I have to travel. I feel confident she will be safe, well provided for, and taken care of when I am away. I could not be more satisfied with the professional level of service Princess receives. Thank you, Preston.

Both during the initial visit and while she was taking care of them, Ashleigh was great with my dogs! My three husky mixes loved her! She took the time to go outside and engage with each one of them and cater to their individual personalities. She was extremely patient with their high energy needs and even took the time to send me several photos of them playing in the yard. Her exerperince of currently being in Vet school, and of previously working in a kennel and as a Vet Assistant really put me at ease in that if there were some type of an emergency, Ashleigh would be able to promptly and properly be able to handle it. I will defintely request Ashleigh's services again in the future!

About: For the past five years, anytime my neighbors or family go out of town I am the first one they contact to pet sit. Also I’ve spent a great deal of time over the past two years volunteering at local animal shelters. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I have a flexible work schedule that allows me to check in on pets during the workday when needed, and I’m also an early riser, so morning walks, feedings, and potty breaks are never a problem. After work, I have plenty of time to spend with your pet, whether that’s going for a walk, playing, or simply providing companionship. I’m also available for overnight stays when needed to help keep your pet comfortable and maintain their normal routine while you’re away. Your pets safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. When caring for pets in a clients home, I work to maintain their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. I understand that every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their personality, preferences, and needs. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to provide a safe, stress-free environment where your pet feels comfortable, loved, and well cared for.

About: Reliable and attentive professional dog sitter dedicated to providing safe, comfortable, and stress-free care for dogs of all breeds and temperaments. Experienced in daily routines including feeding, walking, administering medications, and maintaining consistent schedules to keep pets happy and healthy while their owners are away. Known for a calm, patient approach and strong attention to detail, I focus on building trust with both dogs and their owners. Whether caring for energetic puppies or senior dogs needing extra support, I adapt to each pet’s unique personality and needs. I prioritize clear communication, regular updates, and a clean, secure environment so owners can have complete peace of mind. Passionate about animal wellbeing and committed to treating every dog as if they were my own. I have decided to make caring for pets my full time job. I am single and live alone with my 2 yr old female pupper. We have plenty of time to make your fur babies feel how special they actually are. I have a small fenced in yard. If it's nice out then I like to leave it open so they have free reign. My place is small so I'm always near. I will only accept pets that get along with other dogs. It starts with my dog, Kaiya. She gets along with all dogs so if a dog has a problem with her then they won't be invited for doggy day care. However, that does not mean I cannot pay a visit to your house for any needs. I can also crate any dog that is better suited for that environment. Safety for all pups under my watch is the number one priority.

Katie has been taking care of my puppy during lunch time weekly while I’m at work for a couple months now and she has been an absolute lifesaver! She’s super dependable, responsible, and always sends me pictures/videos daily. If you’re looking for someone reliable who will treat your fur babies as if they were her own, I would definitely recommend Katie!

Kaylah was incredible with watching both my cats and my dog while my husband and I were on our honeymoon (12 days total). We have used Kaylah 2 times now and she is just wonderful. My dog is always sad to leave when we have to pick her up. It really does show that Kaylah loves animals and treats mine like her own. I 100% would recommend her. She’s awesome!

About: I have loved dogs since I was a child, i will treat them like me own. Having two crazy spoiled fur babies of my own will ensure you that yours are in good hands! I am looking to help walk dogs week nights after 5pm (no time is too late) and on weekends! I am also willing to check in and stay with pups for periods of time as needed. No overnights at this time I can help with anything you need before or after walks including feeding, water, brushing, crates, enrichment toys and many more! Just let me know(:

About: I've had dogs my whole life. I'm very comfortable with big dogs as I've always had Golden Retrievers. After my kids grew up and moved out and the last of our fur babies passed I decided to spend my time enjoying others dogs like my grandbabies and giving them back! I still love dogs and being around them would enjoy helping with your needs. Long walks or short walks I usually walk 5miles everyday either way. I'm not working anymore so this gives me something to do that I enjoy and not something I have to do but rather enjoy doing. My husband passed from cancer so I have alot of free time . I walked dogs at Canine for Service also and loved that. Overnights are welcome also. Walking, playing , potty breaks and feeding are very fitting for my schedule, I would come to you for your needs.

First time using Rover and Ethan. I am very happy with him and the care he provided for my pets. He was on time as scheduled, did everything I asked, my pets liked him, and his rates are very affordable. Will definitely be using Ethan again when we go out of town to take care of my fur babies.

About: I am most experienced with hyper mid-sized dogs, but have experience taking care of all types, including: King Cavalier, McNabb Collies, English Labs, Pitbulls, and more. I am available every day from late morning throughout the night to take care of any pets you may have! If there are specific hours you need, reach out and I am sure I can accommodate you. Any clients I have had so far have either given me a specific code or key to enter their houses, and then I learn what the client's routine and needs are so I can accommodate. I can play in the backyard, bathe the animal, take them on walks, and can take special requests.
