“Kristy was wonderful with our 2 boys! While we were at an event, she walked them, gave them a snack and spent a good amount of time snuggling with them. They are both large strong bully breed boys and they did great on the leash for her, showing that she is confident and capable. I told her they liked to snuggle and she went above and beyond to give them affection. You could see in the pictures she sent that they were very happy to be cozied up next to her. She was also great about doing a meet-and-greet and making it very convenient for us. I would hire Kristy again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her!”


About: Being a pet caregiver stems from my desire to support families by providing reliable, compassionate care for their beloved animals. I’ve had dogs my whole life, and now that I’ve moved out, I miss the company. This makes pet sitting a natural and rewarding fit. I have three years of experience dog and cat sitting and am comfortable with animals of all kinds. My calm, patient personality helps me connect with pets of all temperaments. I follow detailed care instructions and use your preferred communication method. I speak English and Spanish, have my own car, and have completed some college coursework. I enjoy walking, reading, and giving lots of love to furry companions. Providing safe, respectful care and knowing I can make a positive impact brings me true joy. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Since I work remotely part time, I have a flexible schedule that makes it easy and enjoyable to fit pet care into my daily routine! I am able to provide consistent attention, daily walks and feedings, playtime, and lots of cuddles. This also means I can accommodate pets with specific routines or needs and give them the care they deserve. I treat each client’s home with care and respect, always following pet routines to help them feel safe and comfortable. I double check doors, gates, and leashes, and stay alert to any safety concerns. I provide regular updates so you can feel confident your pet and home are in good hands. Building trust with both the pet and the family is something I take seriously, and I’m committed to creating a calm, positive environment while they’re in my care.

“Kelsey kicks so much ass. I felt like my pet was extremely well taken care of and appreciated the communication that was made to keep schedules of care. Will definitely be seeking thier services again~”


About: Hi! I’m Lauren Cooper — a lifelong animal lover with a gentle heart and a reliable spirit. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, and other pets of all sizes and personalities. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just some extra love while you’re away, I’ll treat your pets like family. Your pet’s comfort and safety are always my top priority! Pet care is a natural part of my weekly routine—I love building it into my schedule. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening playtime, I always make time to care for animals. It’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize in my day-to-day life. I do go to school and work but I’ll be able to do check ins throughout the day and will be with them overnight if that’s the situation! I make sure every pet feels safe, relaxed, and at home. I’m super mindful of routines, clear about communication, and always treat pets like they’re my own. You can trust they’re in good hands!

“Kristen did a drop-in with my puppy short notice and was fantastic. She was able to keep up with my pups energy and sent lots of pictures for updates. I’ll be glad to use her service again.”


“Fern did a great job taking care of our 8 year old German shepherd! She gave detailed updates and photos each drop in visit, which we loved knowing how our dog was doing each time without worry. She was dependable and easy to communicate with. I would highly recommend her taking care of your dog! We were able to truly enjoy our vacation knowing our dog was being so well taken care of! Thank you, Fern!!”

About: I specialize in nervous system co regulation. I’ve had multiple special needs dogs I’ve cared for their entire life. I am quiet, gentle, and deeply care about pets connection and emotional needs on top of their physical needs. I work from home as an energy worker so I am home most of the time and the only one living in my house. I provide a calm, safe place for older and timid pets. I live off a huge park in a quiet part of town. I have a fenced yard and only watch one pet (or family) at a time. I can do crating or free roam, depending on your pet and your preference.

About: I have owned cats for over 20 years. I currently have 2 cats and adore them. They are good around small dogs and other cats. I have a great setup that includes scratching posts, towers, ledges, hammocks, and even a cat condo. They love spying on birds, squirrels, and other critters on the ledges by the window. I only take one client at a time so will not board other cats during your booking. I'd like to keep it to a two cat max, but if you have more we can discuss it. I am flexible and open minded. Small dogs are also welcome. My cats are good around dogs. They ignore them, just like they ignore me when I tell them to behave :) I have a fresh running water cat fountain and toys and will give your cats all of the TLC they deserve. I know how important it is to know your cats are in good hands and will go out of my way to ensure they are happy. I work full time Monday-Friday 6am-4pm. I do make it home during lunch to let them out for a potty break. I'm off on the weekends. This should not be a problem for cats. Water/litter will be changed/cleaned daily. I feed the cats/dogs twice a day. If you need anything else, I can accommodate whatever your needs are. My cats are family and mean the world to.me! They are loved and treated well. Your sweet pet will be happy here! Looking forward for your furbaby to meet us!

About: I am a responsible and kind person who is currently studying to be a counseling psychologist. I have had a variety of jobs in my life which have ranged from pet sitter to receptionist to RBT (registered behavioral technician). Of these jobs, I’ve most enjoyed working where I can make the most positive impact and best serve others. I have found in my work experience that pet sitting is indeed one of the best jobs for a service-oriented person like myself in which to work. I love making a pet owner's day by assuring them that their pets are being loved even while they are away. I especially love sending photos of the pets that I sit to owners as it's a fun way to let them know that I'm doing my job and that their pet is healthy, happy, and just as adorable as ever. I'm very excited to work with you! I’m currently available to walk, visit, and care for your pets Monday through Sunday. Mornings are typically the best time for me to walk and/or visit your furry friends, but I’m available after 3:30 PM if that works best for you. I live in a pet-friendly one-bedroom apartment that’s located right next to a park. It’s a peaceful environment within the house. My spouse also loves animals and is always happy to give your pets extra love.

We spend lots of time with them, taking them on vacation with us and ensuring each one is loved and taken care of in every way possible. We guarantee we will take care of your pups in the same way and they will come back to you feeling loved and tired!

About: Growing up I volunteered at my local Humane Society. This sparked my interest in animal care. I worked at an animal hospital for 2 years after and still pet sit frequently. I am currently trying to find a part time job. Until then I am free Mondays to Fridays and weekends if needed. I can make a lot of things work schedule wise. After volunteering and working at an actual vet office I’ve learned how to safely handle and treat a variety of animals with all kinds of temperaments.

“Halina made an outstanding first impression at the meet & greet - she was prompt, polite, professional, personable and got along great with our dog. She listened carefully when I provided care instructions and asked all the right questions. She sent an update with photos during her drop-in visit, which took place exactly when she said it would. I would not hesitate to use her services again! Highly recommended.”

About: I've taken care of animals my entire life, from dogs and cats to sheep/goats and guinea pigs. I love all the cuddles they can give and I love giving them the same. I work part-time nights as an RN for a children's hospital so I work 2 days a week with a rotating schedule. I am usually pretty flexible with times. My animals are free roam around the house but if you have crates at your home you wish me to use I am happy to. They will get long walks and lots of play time with my visits!

About: I’ve had multiple family dogs who are mostly boxers and very energetic. Would always make sure to give them lots of love, treats, and hikes I am a U.S. Navy Reservist and a full time finance student but I’ll update my hours and make sure I show up when I’m scheduled I make sure to get them lots of walks, attention, pets, and hikes. I love taking my own dog out for hikes and seeing how happy her face is after walking 8 or so miles :)
