“V is amazing with all of our babies (1 dog and 3 cats), and gives them so much love and attention! They will definitely miss her! I love the updates, pictures and videos! It's a great feeling knowing they are in great care while you are away! We will be booking V again in the future!”

“Mara was fabulous with Wags. She paid close attention to what he needed and how he was doing. Communication with her was easy from booking through the visit. Will definitely use her again.”

“Sarah is such an amazing person! We had her stay the night a few nights with our dog and she was such a wonderful caregiver to her. Our dog is very shy and timid and by day two she was sending us videos of her being playful and zooming around with her. Sarah has an amazing way with dogs and she also saved our apartment from burning down by smelling something burning and it was one of our air wick wall plug ins! She is amazing, attentive and has great communication. My husband and I can’t recommend her enough!”

“Nick is always so great with the animals and a huge help! He's very friendly, goes above and beyond, and the animals enjoy spending time with him. If you're looking for a trustworthy and flexible petsitter - Nick is your guy!”

“Meredith was great taking care of my dog over Thanksgiving. She was communicative and I appreciate all the love she gave him while we were gone for the holiday!”

About: I’ve been petsitting for dogs and cats ever since I was younger for family friends. I’m currently studying Animal Care Management and Technology in college. I love all sorts of animals and love caring for them! I have experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes and personalities, including taking them on walks, feeding and giving lots of attention! I am dependable, patient and committed to making sure every pet feels comfortable and loved while their parents are away. Right now I dogsit for my job! I have full availability so I can give your pets unlimited attention, personalized care and lots of affection. I’m happy to take your dog on walks, feeding them at their regular times and playing with them lots too of course! I try to keep your pets routine as consistent as possible to help them feel comfortable and reduce stress while you’re away.

“So very happy, pleased and excited with the wonderful job Samantha did while caring for our dog. Samantha communicated daily with updates, made certain that all medications were given as directed, and left our house in excellent shape despite the rain, muddy footprints, and shedding of our lab! My husband and I look forward to having Samantha take care of our dog in the future.”

About: I have been the go to in my family for watching animals. Everyone has different ways they live and our animals find comfort in routine. I have always done my best to meet them where they are and ensure their animals feel as comfortable as possible while the parents are away. I currently work full-time, so my availability is a bit thin. Overall I work approximately 10hrs a day. Which means I am only available early mornings and late evenings on work days. I have my own pets but my husband takes care of their needs while I'm not around. We aren't in a position to watch pets in our own home but outside of the time I need to work I am very flexible with my time. I do not offer boarding services. However, when taking care of another's pet before the service date(s) I gather as much info as I can. What is their routine? how much energy does your pet have? Etc. And I will do my best to accommodate. I try to take my own dogg out about every 2-4hrs and give her lots of love and attention. If yous animal has different needs from meds to high attention or even more frequent potty breaks I can work with those factors.

“GREAT sitter for our two kitties! We have already booked her for three more future sittings. We had such of peace of mind knowing she was feeding and spending time with our “girls”. Came home to clean litter boxes, a home in perfect condition, and two happy sassy cats lol. Most definitely recommend Yvette! Five stars is NOT enough.”

About: Many family friends have left their dogs in my care, mainly overnight. I’ve gotten very comfortable looking after high energy breeds and being attentive to their needs. I’ve owned a cat myself in the past! My primary job has relatively light and flexible hours. That flexibility allows me to give pets the time and attention they deserve. Early mornings and late nights will almost always be available for bookings. When I accept a booking, I make sure I can genuinely commit to it so every pet receives consistent attention and companionship throughout my time. I treat both the space and the fur baby with the same respect and responsibility I would expect someone to show mine. I pay close attention to each pet’s routine and personality while also making sure they receive any specific care they’re already used to. I try to leave homes better condition in then I arrived, and I believe reliable communication helps provide peace of mind for any client that so desires. My goal will always be for clients to come home to something relaxing.

About: I've taken care of all kinds of dogs since I was young. I have experience with bathing, grooming, walking and overnight care. I also have experience with my own dogs that we have owned and love animals so much! Pet-care is a side-hustle that I use to make ends meet. Right now I have a very open schedule until I start working full time again so am looking to make this something I do predominantly during the week and weekends. I offer services including dog-walking and overnight care. I am open to pets staying in my home but also have a dog myself that I take care of. She gets along well with other animals. I like to play with the dogs and am willing to groom/bathe them if necessary.

About: My mom was a vet tech growing up and I have been around dogs of all sizes my whole life. I was raised in a home where every dog deserves a chance, no matter their health or their behavior and it has carried over with me into adulthood. Whether it is doggy day care, house sitting, or in-home boarding, I have experience in doing them all. I am local to parks, I have a fenced-in backyard with a covered back deck that has a fan for cooling off. I can tend to whatever the dogs may need energy level wise. I also enjoy walking all dogs when I exercise. Once play time is over, we have plenty of space in the house for relaxing and sleeping. I am home most of the time, so the dogs won’t be stuck alone for hours on end. I work from home, so there will not be much of a time that the dogs will be alone. I can cater to whatever the dogs need. I do prefer a crate trained dog for if/when I do leave the home for safety for both my home and the dog itself. The fenced in back yard is a huge hit for the dogs when I dog sit them. I am able to separate dogs if I have multiple, if needed. We have plenty of trails to walk, a local park with a walking track. Dogs are allowed on furniture. I have plenty of bones, toys, blankets, and anything to make your dog happy and comfortable.

About: I've been around dogs and cats for many years and genuinely enjoy caring enjoy caring for animals of all ages and personalities. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have helped take care of my neighbor's dogs, including senior dogs that required extra attention and daily medication. I have experience caring for smaller older dogs making sure that there comfortable, safe, and following any special instructions provided by their owners. but I'm always happy to provide equally the same services for larger dogs and cats also .I understand the importance of maintaining a solid routine, and administering any medications needed on schedule, and providing patients and companionship to pets who may need a little extra care. I treat every pet as if they were my own.my goal is to make pet and pet parent feel comfortable, confident and at ease I work as a substitute teacher and I'm self-employed to my hours are very flexible . which allows me to have an open schedule so that I can dedicate the appropriate time and attention need for the care of your pets. I prefer going to the clients home and I follow their instructions to the tee when it comes to the safety and wellbeing of the fur baby.

“Gabe is a nice man with a great heart for your pet(s). He communicates well and delivers on his promises. I feel I can trust him again to take care of my fur family of five.”

About: Hi! I'm Julie! While new to the pet/housesitting world, I have taken care of dogs, cats and horses since childhood. I've also been a human caregiver. I'm a retired RN of 35+ years who also worked in veterinary medicine as a vet assistant for 5 years. My love of animals has persuaded me to pursue a career of providing care to your furry family members. My preferred fur clientele would be mature adult/senior small dogs or cats (kittens or adults) who prefer to stay in their own familiar surroundings. As the mom of a special needs dog (epilepsy) I'm well versed in giving medications and providing seizure care. With owner direction and observation of administration, I would feel comfortable administering injections. Whether your pet is into sedate leash walks, snuggles, belly rubs or prefers self entertainment with toys or observing the outside world, I'm happy to oblige. My schedule is generally very flexible and my goal is to take care of your fur babies and your home as if they were my own. I'm currently working as a contract nurse and am able to set my schedule on a monthly basis. This allows flexibility for your sitting needs. I have 3 furry family members of my own. I have 2 standard poodles inside and a tuxedo longhaired cat that's in and out. All have been spayed and receive regular vet care. One of the poodles is special needs due to epilepsy and is on multiple medications daily to prevent seizures. I will care for your pet in your home as if they were my own.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I’ve raised and trained dogs since I was young and have experience with puppies, senior dogs, large breeds, high-energy dogs, and more relaxed companions. I’m also comfortable caring for pets with medical needs and can administer oral medications, topical medications, injections, and provide care for dogs wearing cones or diapers. I work from home, which allows me to provide a flexible schedule and spend plenty of quality time with the pets in my care. Dogs staying with me are rarely left alone for more than 2–4 hours, receive regular potty breaks every 2–4 hours, and get lots of attention throughout the day. I always strive to keep pets comfortable by following their normal routine as closely as possible. I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, potty breaks, fresh food and water, and lots of affection. All outdoor time is supervised, and I provide a clean, quiet, and stress-free environment. There are no other animals in the house. I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos throughout their stay or visit. I have access to a large backyard and a ton of greenery right across the street.

“She was amazing! The photo updates eased my anxiety of leaving them and gave us total peace of mind. Our dogs were so well cared for—highly recommend!”

About: Growing up as a farm girl taught me responsibility, patience, and how to care for animals of all personalities and sizes. I’m comfortable with high-energy pets, shy pets, senior animals, and multi-pet households. I also have experience caring for young animals, including bottle feeding kittens and providing extra attention to pets that need specialized care. What sets me apart is that I don’t just “watch” pets — I pay attention to their routines, behaviors, and comfort so they feel safe and loved while you’re away. I understand how important trust is when leaving your animals with someone else, so I provide dependable communication, photo updates, and personalized care for every pet as if they were my own. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just a calm companion, I adapt to their needs and make sure they receive attentive, reliable care every time. Pet sitting fits naturally into my weekly routine alongside my multiple part-time jobs because I’ve learned how to stay organized, reliable, and flexible with my time. My schedule varies throughout the week, but I intentionally plan ahead so I can give each pet sitting visit my full attention and consistency. Because my jobs are part-time, I have built-in availability during mornings, evenings, and flexible gaps in the day that allow me to provide dependable check-ins, walks, feeding, and playtime. I’m used to balancing responsibilities, so I’m careful about only accepting bookings I can fully commit to without rushing or cutting corners. Pet sitting is something I genuinely prioritize in my routine — it’s not just extra work, it’s time I set aside to care for animals, give them attention, and make sure pet parents feel confident and updated while they’re away. I offer flexible care depending on what works best for you and what your pet is most comfortable with. In your home, I focus on keeping everything as familiar and stress-free as possible for your pet. I follow their normal routine for feeding, walks, litter box care, medication if needed, and playtime. I also make sure they get attention and companionship so they don’t feel lonely while you’re away. I respect your space, keep things clean and organized, and provide consistent updates so you always know how your pet is doing. If care takes place in my home, your pet will be in a calm, safe, and supervised environment where they receive the same level of attention and routine-based care. I make sure they have a comfortable space, regular outdoor breaks or playtime, and a low-stress setting that feels secure and welcoming. I limit distractions and other animals as needed so each pet gets proper individual care. In both settings, my goal is the same: to make your pet feel safe, cared for, and comfortable while giving you peace of mind that they’re in responsible hands.
