“Alex was prompt when coming to my home and analyzed what my cat enjoyed to do and she did just that with him. She sometimes stayed over the expected time to take the best care of my fur baby and give him a little extra love. She recognized when litter needed to be refilled and knew when to reach out for my assistance. Alex is great and definitely will be booking with her again.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 10, providing trustworthy, attentive service to neighbors and friends. I’m communicative, easy to reach, and dedicated to your pet’s comfort while you’re away. I work full-time Monday through Thursday and am looking for an additional income source on weekends (Friday to Sunday) to supplement my earnings. Flexible with hours during those days. I’ll provide thoughtful, attentive care for your pets in the comfort of their own home, ensuring their safety, happiness, and well-being while you’re away, just as I would for my own.
“Danielle did a great job! My cat is diabetic and gets insulin 2X a day. This was the first time being away from him since he was diagnosed. Danielle came over and met Blue Jeans prior to my trip and was very communicative throughout my trip and sent pictures every day. If you need a pet sitter, I highly recommend Danielle.”
“Another great experience for our senior dog, Izzy. Breyana has the magic with animals! Her magic includes patience, kindness, and caring for animals. We appreciate all her efforts and the attention she showers on Izzy!”
About: Hi my name is Mike, I have over 30 years of experience with animals. I own five dogs currently. I have had cats, birds, fish, bunnies, snakes, ferrets and iguanas. Heading out? I’ll keep tails wagging, wings flapping, and whiskers twitching! From pups and kittens to bunnies, birds, and reptiles—your beloved pets get all the care, cuddles, and playtime they deserve while you’re away. 🐶🐱🐰🦎🦜 What sets me apart? I don’t just “watch” pets—I bond with them. 🐾 Whether your pup needs help with potty training or your senior cat needs extra TLC, I’ve got the patience, experience, and big heart to meet them where they are. I’m confident with all kinds of animals—wiggly puppies, shy bunnies, talkative parrots, and even your bearded dragon with attitude. 💬🦎 From giving meds to managing routines, I treat each pet like they’re my own (spoiled and adored!). My goal? To make your pet feel safe, loved, and entertained while you’re away—so you can relax knowing they’re in good paws. 🐶🐱🐰🦜🐢 I work from home, I have a very flexible schedule. I’m available everyday. Late nights or early mornings are ok with me. I’m here to help. I care for your pets in their comfort zone—your home! 🏡🐾 I stick to their usual routines so everything feels familiar: same feeding schedule, favorite toys, walks on their route, and belly rubs in their go-to spot on the couch. I keep things clean, cozy, and calm—whether that means scooping litter boxes, watering plants, or giving meds with a treat and a smile. 💊🍖 Plus, I send updates (with adorable pics!) so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. Your pets stay happy, relaxed, and loved until you’re home again. ❤️🐶🐱🐰🦎

About: I grew up taking care of all different breeds of dogs, and there’s nothing else I’d rather do! I started out caring for my own, then I started caring for my family’s and friend’s pets too. My experience ranges from caring for puppies and senior dogs. I had a 14 year old lab that I had to provide senior care on, from feeding by hand, cleaning her up, and administering medicine. I am working full time at the moment but am more than excited to spend my days off with your fur babies! As of right now I am available most weekends, and nights. I care for my dogs by letting them run around during the day, I have a huge yard with plenty of space. At night my dogs like to sleep in their crate.
