“Once again, I came home to a very happy kitty who was in Latisha’s care. She sent detailed updates on my cat’s progress daily, and spent the visit brushing, playing and feeding him. I can tell that he’s so happy when he’s with her and my cat is picky! Highly recommend Latisha :)”

About: I’ve been catsitting consistently for the past four years and grew up around dogs, so I’m comfortable with different personalities, routines, and needs. I take the time to build trust with each pet and care for them as if they were my own. I currently work Monday-Friday in the afternoons-evenings, so I am available on weekdays in the mornings and I am very flexible on Saturdays and Sundays I care for pets in their own home so they can stay comfortable in a familiar space and keep their normal routines. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, have clean litter or potty breaks, get playtime and attention, and feel safe while their owners are away. I’m respectful of my clients’ homes and treat every pet with the same care and attention I’d give my own.

About: I love spending time with my 13 year old pug, Yoshi. I enjoy meeting all of the dogs, and I understand deeply how important pets are to us. I am currently working part-time, and that leaves me plenty of time through the week to get out, enjoy the beautiful weather and hang out with your dog! Having had a variety of dogs throughout my life, I understand that every dog, and their needs, are unique. So wether yours needs slow walks in the grass or long walks downtown, I'll get those paws moving!

About: I love animals I would treat them as my own fur babies I would love to have a dog or cat but I can’t due to my landlord so this is the 2nd best option I love going on walks and adding a doggie would only add to my walk. I have a pretty flexible schedule and very open to making it work! I would treat them with the up most care and love they’re just babies and it’s the fur babies world I’m just living in it

About: I have grown up with dogs all of my life and have experience with all ages from puppies to senior dogs and even special needs dogs. Before my current rescue dog Sadie girl, I had Ava. I adopted Ava as a puppy and she was healthy according to the vet but it turned out she had a neurological degenerative disease. With Ava I had experience in assisting with mobility issues, supported her with eating, drinking, and administering necessary medications. Now that I have Sadie who is a high energy large breed dog I have a lot of experience going on hikes and runs in local neighborhoods, visiting parks, and dog beaches. I am currently working part time and have plenty of time available for morning, afternoon, or evening walks depending on the day. I have a very flexible schedule and I am always ready for playtime, walks, and/or runs with your precious pup. I have a private fenced in courtyard with space to run around in or lay out in the sun with a strip of turf for potty time. I never leave my dogs unsupervised and we always practice safe leash habits by staying on leash until we’re in a safe designated off leash dog area. Special rules and needs will be respected with the utmost care, your fur baby is safe with me!

About: Hi! I’m Amy, a dependable and attentive dog lover who understands how important it is to find someone you truly trust with your pet. I have a senior dog of my own, Sammy, so I’m very comfortable with the routines, patience, and extra care that some dogs need, whether that’s slower walks, medication routines, or simply a calm and reassuring presence. I’m active, responsible, and love spending time outdoors, so I’m happy to tailor care to your dog’s needs, whether that means neighborhood walks, playtime, or relaxed companionship at home. I’ll care for your dog the way I’d want someone to care for mine: safely, lovingly, and with lots of attention to their unique personality and routine. My schedule is fairly flexible, and I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and pet care throughout the week. I do have a standing commitment on Monday and Wednesday mornings that takes me away for a few hours, but outside of that I have a lot of flexibility and can often accommodate a variety of schedules with advance notice. I prioritize safe, attentive, and individualized care for every dog. I take time to learn each dog’s routine, temperament, triggers, and any special instructions before providing care. I’m mindful of leash safety, secure doors and gates carefully, monitor for signs of stress or discomfort, and make sure they have fresh water, exercise, and a calm environment. I also understand that every dog is different, some want lots of activity and play, while others do better with a slower pace, extra patience, or a more structured routine. My goal is always to make dogs feel comfortable!

About: My approach to pet sitting is based upon knowledge, compassion, communication and trust. This sets a peaceful tone for both the pet and their owner. I'm a member of PSI (Pet Sitters International) and have taken many courses including dog body language, pet sitting essentials and pet first aid. I have a Pet CPR Certificate from the American Red Cross as well. I enjoy pet sitting in the clients home where I can create a customized approach to caring for the needs of their pet and their owner. I also excel at dog walking. When walking your dog, I pay close attention to how they're interacting with the environment and always keep their health and safety as a priority. I look forward to working with you and your beloved pet! I am available 7 days a week 7am-8pm with over-nights being an option as well. I'm happy to work with you on finding the right schedule for the both of us. When caring for a pet in the client's home, I first learn the habits of the pet from the owner. This includes: their feeding schedule, medications needed, hiding places, their behavior toward people and other animals, potty habits etc. From there I create an environment of comfort for the pet making sure they are played with, fed, walked and rested. During this time, I stay in contact with the owner and update them with notes and photos of their pet.

About: 🐾 Your Pet’s New Favorite Human! I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember! I’ve had many different pets throughout my life and currently have cats of my own, so I know firsthand that every pet has their own unique personality, quirks, and routines. 🐱💕 I genuinely love caring for animals and treat every pet like they’re my own. Whether your furry friend needs a little extra playtime, a relaxing cuddle session, a walk around the neighborhood, or simply some company while you’re away, I’m happy to be there for them! I’m patient, attentive, and always happy to go the extra mile to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I also understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets, and I’ll keep you updated with plenty of pictures and little check-ins along the way. 📸🐾 Basically, if your pet has four legs, a wagging tail, whiskers, or a whole lot of attitude—I’m probably going to love them. 😊 Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship. I’m happy to work around each pet’s individual needs and routine to make sure they get the attention and care they deserve. 🐾 I care for every pet with patience, attention, and lots of love! I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and plenty of cuddles. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and make sure their pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. 🐾💕

About: As a dedicated animal lover, I offer personalized in-home sitting and fun outdoor adventures. Through years of shelter work—including handling weekend walks and group pack hikes for Westside German Shepherd Rescue—I’ve gained great experience managing different sizes and energy levels safely. I have an extremely social pup of my own who loves making new friends. Whether I'm staying over to keep your dog comfortable in their own home or picking them up to join us for an after-work beach romp, your dog will get structure, great exercise, and endless love. My weekday routine is consistent and reliable: I work an office job during the day, leaving my evenings and weekends dedicated to pet care. I love winding down after work with active evening visits, walk routines, or dog beach outings, followed by cozy evening drop-ins for cats. I’m also fully available for weekend house sitting, long walks, and attentive care when you're away. I treat your home and your pets with the highest level of care and accountability. During house sits, I strictly maintain your established routines—including custom feeding, medication administration, exercise, and litter box or yard cleanup. Backed by years of rescue and volunteer experience, I’m quick to pick up on pet body language to ensure they feel safe and comfortable. You can expect regular photos, clear communication, and a clean, secure home to return to.

“Nicholas once again went above and beyond for our cat Pete!!! He gave us very detailed daily updates with lots of photos, which we appreciated since he watched our cat for such a long time! Pete was always so happy to see him, and I really appreciated how Nicholas took the time to play with him. He has watched Pete on two separate occasions, one of the occasions lasting almost two weeks, and we would highly recommend him!”

About: I am innately an animal lover and advocate and will treat your pet as it were my own. I have been pet sitting for over a decade. I get super nervous leaving my own dog, so do everything in my power to ensure you and your pet are comfortable. From a young age, I was the kid that would come home with an injured wild animal asking my parents to help it. I grew up with a German Shepard and greyhound, and now have my own dog, who’s a pitty/boxer/cattle dog mix. I understand every dog has different needs and equipped to take care of high energy, intelligent dogs who need a lot of exercise and stimulation. I’ve taken care of small and big dogs as well as cats and bearded dragons. I’ve fostered dogs as well, so am familiar with anxious animals that need TLC and time and space to decompress. I’ve invested in training with my own pet that allows me to read body language well. I have been pet sitting for over a decade. I currently have open availability from early morning through evenings during the week and weekends. I do long walks every morning and evening and keep pets on a consistent feeding schedule. I typically aim to take pets on walks 3 times a day depending on the animal needs and client’s requests. I also ensure adequate playtime with toys and activities that are engaging. I am happy to drop in as often as needed for more anxious animals.

About: Hi my name is Abby! I have cared for and been around dogs my entire life. Grew up mainly with Rotties, so I have a special love for big dogs. I also did pet sitting for neighbors on and off throughout high school and college. Earlier this year I also fostered a Husky for 3 months, my roommate at the time was able to adopt him so I still see him regularly when I visit her. I am very active and love to go on walks, runs, and even hikes with doggies. I currently live a very pet friendly building with a dog spa and a nearby dog park. I do not have any pets currently so this is perfect to make some extra bucks while I am in graduate school and get in some much needed dog time. I’m currently in graduate school, so my schedule has some flexibility throughout the week. I am available Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays. I also have time Tuesdays after 2pm. I’m happy to work with your schedule and can provide plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and companionship. I especially enjoy staying active with dogs through walks, runs, and hikes! I’ve cared for dogs my entire life and grew up primarily with Rottweilers, so I’m very comfortable and confident around big dogs. I’ve also pet-sat for neighbors throughout high school and college and recently fostered a Husky for three months. I currently have no pets of my own, and I live in a very pet-friendly building with a dog spa and nearby dog park. I prioritize each dog’s safety, comfort, and individual routine while making sure they get plenty of love, attention, exercise, and playtime.

I booked Andrea last minute for some drop-ins and Andrea DID NOT DISAPPOINT!!! I will definitely book again in the future, she went above and beyond for the kitties and they warmed up to her almost immediately (they don’t really care for people). I appreciated the check-ins followed up with pictures 💚💕 Thank you Andrea!

Jake stepped in at the last minute when our other dog-sitting plans fell through, and we couldn’t have asked for a better fit! One of our dogs can be a handful for sitters, but Jake quickly won him over, and they had a great time together. He sent plenty of pictures and kept us updated throughout our trip, which gave us so much peace of mind. We’re so grateful for the care he gave our boys and can’t recommend him highly enough!

Tina was wonderful with our cat, Taco, over our lengthy vacation. They made sure he had adequate playtime & socializing - along with tending to our cat’s various robots. At our meet & greet, Tina took detailed notes & photos to make sure Taco got everything he needed while we were gone. That greatly reassured me. Pet sitting at our place was challenging - the community was handling repairs at the same time, but Tina handled the chaos well. They went above & beyond to run to the pet store after their visit & return to apply some medication. Thanks Tina!

I truly can’t recommend Grey enough. She is an absolute gem and one of those people you feel SO lucky to find on an app like this. She took AMAZING care of my two cats while I was traveling. I felt completely comfortable and at ease knowing they were left in her care. I’m admittedly a little over-the-top when it comes to my cats and their happiness and comfort 😂 and Grey knocked it out of the park. She is attentive, loving, communicative, and took care of them as if they were her own. Also - my cats ADORED her! Animals are excellent judges of character and my cats totally loved her. She shared many photos during each visit and it was clear that they felt extremely safe and happy. I already know they’ll be excited to see her again in the future! If you’re looking for someone who is reliable, thoughtful, and genuinely wonderful with animals, Grey is your person. I’m so happy I found her and will absolutely be reaching out to book her anytime I need to travel. Thank you, Grey!!! ❤️
