About: I’ve been a dog owner for many years and have had three Shar Pei of my own. Shar Pei can be a challenging breed, and all three of mine experienced health issues over the years, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs who need a little extra patience and attention, including administering medications. I no longer have a dog in my home and have recently been dog sitting for friends and family. I’ve enjoyed it so much that I decided it was time to expand! I truly enjoy having dogs around, taking them for walks and giving them plenty of attention. Your dog will be treated like part of my family, not a guest. I work outside of the home during the week, but I have flexibility in my schedule and plenty of time to give your dog the attention, exercise and companionship they need. I enjoy walking and being outdoors, so daily walks are something I genuinely look forward to. When I’m home, your dog will be right there with me as part of the family. I have a fully fenced-in yard where your dog can safely spend time outside, and there are currently no other pets living in my home. This allows me to give your dog lots of individual attention and makes my home a comfortable option for dogs who may prefer not to be around other animals. I’m experienced with administering medications and caring for dogs with health issues and special needs. I’ll also follow your dog’s normal feeding, walking, sleeping and medication routine as closely as possible. Above all, I want your dog to feel safe, comfortable and at home while you’re away.
About: I have experience caring for animals ranging from livestock, domestic pets, and more exotic types. I have received formal schooling regarding large animal care. I have owned many different animals through out my life and most of my work has consisted of animal care. I have been pet sitting specifically for about 5 years. I’m currently an online college student and only work part time so my schedule is very flexible. I am comfortable with early mornings and multiple visits a day I am comfortable with handling animals whether anxious or rambunctious. Cleaning up messes, crating, exercise, etc., I am comfortable with. I am educated on checking animals health states, along with making simple assessments such as vitals and physical presentation should an animal have any injury or illness.
“Rosemary was wonderful! So communicative and prompt. Always keeping me informed of everything going on. My little guy was a little shy at first so she brought her own dog as a companion and it worked like a charm. She's great!”
“Mykaela is an amazing caretaker who you can tell loves animals. Our dog Bailey was in good hands. We will absolutely be asking for her help again the next time we need a dog walker.”
“We booked Fahad for a week of twice-a-day dog walks. Fahad did a great job with our Chihuahua mix. He was trustworthy, he paid careful attention to our requests and instructions, he communicated clearly and regularly, and he was really great with the pup. We will definitely book him again when we need a dog walker.”
“Catherine has been great with our 2 black labs the last couple of months. They get excited every time she comes to the door, because they know they're going for a nice walk. We are scheduled for 3 walks a week but with the holidays, snow days,and work from home days the schedule has fluctuated drastically. Catherine has been very accommodating. I highly recommend her services.”
About: I love all types of animals since I was very little. I always have had pets through childhood. I care deeply for any and every animal I interact with. I am very patient and calm when meeting new pets. I now have a Guinea pig and I always come across relatives pets and offer to help out. I have always had a connection to animal. I take very good care of my own pets and I enjoy spoiling them with only the best. I am extra caring when it comes to others dogs and on walks I would ensure great safety and to follow there routine and or directions given.
“Shirley is amazing! I was in a bind last minute and she was able to come take care of Charlie. She’s great with communication, photos/updates and I know Charlie is in great hands! 💜”
About: I provide personalized care with many years of experience caring for puppies and senior dogs, ensuring their unique needs are met with attention, patience, and care. Pet care is a key part of my routine. Having a 13-year-old King Charles Cavalier who was a big part of my life taught me how important love, attention, and consistency are in caring for dogs. I bring that same dedication to every dog I care for. I care for pets by maintaining their routines and providing comfort in both my home and clients’ homes. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just companionship, I make sure pets feel relaxed and well-cared for.
About: I have experience caring for both large dogs and puppies, including training and socialization. I previously cared for my soul dog Tyson, a 75-pound American Bully senior rescue, and helped him work through reactivity issues. Now I’m the proud dog dad of Rocky Road, a 1-year-old Boxer mix rescue. I enjoy staying active with dogs through runs, hikes, and playtime. I also have a fenced-in yard where dogs can safely run and explore. I’m currently working full time from home as a marketing consultant. My weekday schedule is often flexible and I am able to give my puppy plenty of attention. I care for pets with safety, comfort, and fun as my top priorities. I have a fenced-in yard where dogs can play and explore, but I always supervise them while outside to ensure they stay safe. Inside, I provide plenty of toys, treats, and attention to keep them happy and engaged. Whether at my home or yours, I’ll follow your pet’s routine and make sure they feel loved, secure, and well-cared-for.
About: My boyfriend and I have had dogs in our family our whole lives. We regularly pet sit for my mother’s golden doodle in our home. We are looking to expand our care to other families. We love all dogs and can assure your pet will be well taken care of throughout their stay. We have an 8 month old puppy who is friendly with dogs. My boyfriend works from home and is able to be home all day with any dog who is staying with us. Over the weekend we are both able to stay home I am able to crate your dog if needed. Dogs are allowed on couch and bed. They will get lots of cuddles and attention. We have lots of space for walks around our neighborhood and potty breaks in the back yard
About: I've been a cat(s)'s human nearly my whole life - don't tell my landlord, but we've got 4 at home! Been around dogs my whole life too - my husband and I adopted a doggo in 2019 and he is now a certified AKC trick dog. 😎 Who said you can't teach an old dog new tricks! We've fostered cats and have always dogsat for friends. Looking forward to meeting your critters! I probably won't remember your name but I'll definitely remember theirs. I'm currently on leave from work but will be remote after I return to work duties in November and can continue seeing regulars, so your pets and I can form a beautiful lasting friendship! I love walking, hiking AND EVEN running with dogs! Happy to accomodate your pups needs. I love being active but I also love vegging around, so if your furry friend is shy but needs a soothing presence while you're out of town, I'm happy to sit around and read or play switch. Super happy to be as flexible as possible to accomodate your needs!
“Nina was really punctual, reliable, has a great demeanor! My dog was initially really resistant to a new person but was able to get like her in no time! Helpful & goes over & beyond - I asked her if she knew any groomers. She checked with her friends and sent me info on two groomers. Thank you so much Nina!!”

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
