About: I have grown up with animals, and always loved caring and providing a safe and fun environment for them to be themselves and be safe. Need potty breaks in the day? Need a day out of the house? Have an emergency? I can help out on those long work days, when you have to work late or go in early and need someone to go by for a potty break. I am here to provide the love and attention your pets need, as well as some play time! I believe that ALL breeds of dogs/ cats, deserve to be cared for and loved on. I would love to help give your fur babies that extra bit of attention they need when your not at home. I am a SAHM to two little boys. An almost 4 year old and a two month. We love playing with pups, and kitties. If your pets are kid friendly my oldest will be extra help in providing some playtime and love!! The baby will have to be with me at ALL visits, as he is nursing and does not yet take a bottle. Most visits the oldest will also be with me, unless booking a time he is in preschool or my husband is home. I am comfortable walking dogs on a leash, crating, and picking up after them if needed. If the visit is during a meal time, I would be able feed them as well. During my visit, I can also provide play time.

About: It has been a dream of mine to be a veterinarian since I was a little girl, so pet sitting has given me more opportunities to take care of animals of kinds. I've pet sat for friends and family and absolutely love it. I've made close connections with the animals I've sat for and love them like my own. I currently work at a vet office and enjoy seeing the new patients every day! I hope to be a very special person in your fur babies lives. I'm currently a full-time online college student and am a full-time worker as a veterinary assistant. If needed, contact me and we can discuss times and dates to work around both schedules. Because I pet sit and house sit, I play with the animals and cuddle them like they are my own. I stay on their feeding schedule and let them out while I'm there as well. I make sure to keep the owners posted while they are away of any emergencies that may occur. Before owners come home, I'll make sure to wash any linens that were used, wash any dishes that are in the sink, and make sure to sweep up anything that needs to be swept up. I'll take the trash out and will clean the toys up as well. Before I leave the home, I like to leave a note thanking the owner for allowing me to stay in their home and assuring them all that was taken care of as well.

“Sara was awesome. She filled in when our regular sitter was unavailable. She came for a meet and greet. Took nice walks or spent good visit time when it was raining. She left great notes. I knew Piper was well cared for.”


About: I have been taking care of dogs ever since I was a kid and I’ve been dog/house sitting since I was 16. If I dog sit I normally like to leave the house looking better than when I got there. Coming home to a cleaner house is always nice. I love animals more than you will ever know. I have such a strong passion, love, and interest for all animals. That is why I want to own my own animal rescue once I get out of college. If you leave your pets with me then just know that they will be loved unconditionally and taken care of beyond expectation. I hope you can trust me with your loved ones🐾 I am currently a college student and I have class on Monday and Tuesday from 11am to 2:30pm. The rest of my week is free besides church on Sundays and Wednesdays. I have a huge back yard with 8 dogs and two cats. Unfortunately some of my dogs were not socialized enough and they are not that friendly with other dogs. That is why I would rather take care of your pets from your home. I have also dog sat enough to know that when you bring a dog into a new environment they can become extremely stressed and anxious and they might not eat for days or until there owner comes home. That is why I feel it is better and easier to watch and care for your animals from your home. It will be easier for them and me.

About: I’ve grown up having one or more pets in my household my whole life and then began my journey of taking care of other people’s furry friends at the age of 15. I have a friend who rescues animals and I help her all the time to nurture them back to health and show them the love and care that they deserve. I also have a lot of experience pet sitting for many animals at a time because both of my friends have 10 or more animals that I sit for when they are away. Im also well equip with puppy behaviors. I currently have 6 dogs that I have raised and taken care of since birth. They are now all 5 years old. I have also helped take care of many litters of puppies through friends and family.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all ages, from puppies to seniors who need extra patience and care.

I also have a German Shepherd at home who has anxiety, so I’m patient and good at keeping pets calm and happy. I’m a second-year nursing student, so I’m used to being attentive, responsible, and caring for others.

She gets spoiled with multiple walks a day on my work from home days and we have a few dog parks within walking distance that we utilize frequently.

If your pet prefers to be the only dog, I would be more than willing to make a couple trips per day to your home for some outdoor time and walks, as my work schedule is extremely flexible. My dog was crate trained as a puppy so I do have experience with that and would be more than willing to help with training during the day if your dog needed midday walks but was still getting comfy in their crate!

“We have two 100lb dogs, a cat and 13 chickens. Ireyona has been a life saver for us. Our animals are like our children so finding someone who I trusted to care for them was no easy task. The fact that Ireyona works for a vet helps keep us at ease as she has the knowledge to care for them if they were to get hurt or sick while in her care. She gives them so much attention while she is here that they LOVE when her car pulls in the driveway. If you're looking for someone who is more like family to come care for your babies......... Ireyona is the one!”
