“Even though you weren't feeling well, you showed up and able to take care of our dog and our home. We are very thankful and blessed to have found Joann and Gracie. We will keep using her.”

“Andrew is a very conscientious sitter and we recommend him to anyone. He stayed with our very young toy maltipoo for an evening in our home. Our dog immediately loved him, and ran to the window and cried when he left. From my experience and reading his other reviews, he seems to have a natural way with animals. We will absolutely hire him again in the future.”

“I booked Elicia for house sitting, she was very nice and as far as I can tell did a great job taking care of my animals and house while we were gone! My only critique is that I wish I would’ve received some pictures over the weekend, but I know she did fine with the pups and my cat☺️”

About: I’ve had pets of all shapes and sizes my whole life. I’m available all the time and I promise to take care of your baby as I would my own. I’m hoping to make this a daily routine for me. I’d like to add clients that I can build a relationship with. I’m pretty much available all the time. I don’t mind a little drive either. I’m up for anything. I will follow whatever instructions provided and make sure everything is kept clean and safe for all the pets. I’m familiar with all types of setups and I know what to do in case there is an emergency.
“Louisa did an amazing job! I have a kitty with special care/feeding instructions that require attention to detail that she followed perfectly. She also took great care of my home and provided updates on everything as I away. I could tell she genuinely cares about animals just from our initial meet & greet too. I always get so nervous leaving my cat when I go on trips but Louisa absolutely earned my trust and I will be booking with her again in the future for sure as long as she’s still pet sitting. Thank you so much again :)”

About: Whenever I'm with pets I take care of them like they're my own. Your dog will be in great hands and your house will be left better than you left it! I am free everyday of the week and am available to come and stay at your house to take care of your dog. I do not have any other commitments so I am always available. I play with pets, walk with them, make sure that they have everything they need and don't even know you're gone. If I am staying at your house I will keep it clean and no messes will be made!
About: Caring for animals isn’t just something I do — it’s who I am. I would be honored to provide exceptional, compassionate care for your pet. My background in veterinary medicine, combined with my lifelong passion for animals, allows me to care for every pet as if they were my own. I am confident around animals of all temperaments, from shy and anxious to energetic and playful. My goal is always to ensure they feel safe, loved, and happy while in my care. For nearly two years now, I have worked a veterinary assistant. This experience has given me extensive knowledge in animal health and behavior, allowing me to provide a higher level of care and attention. I am comfortable assisting with medical procedures, safely administering medications (oral, topical, or injectable as directed), monitoring for signs of illness, and responding calmly in stressful situations. I also have experience with bathing, trimming nails, cleaning ears, and handling pets in a way that keeps them safe and comfortable. In addition to my prior knowledge and professional experience, since I was a little girl I have always had a deep, natural connection with animals. Growing up, I never viewed them as just pets, but as true members of the family. From riding horses at a young age to volunteering at Freedom Ride and later working at Paws & Play Resort for Dogs, my love for animals has consistently shaped both my personal life and career path. Pet care is a natural and consistent part of my daily life, it’s not something I “fit in,” it’s something I genuinely prioritize. As a veterinary assistant at Petco, caring for animals is already built into my weekly routine. I’m used to structured schedules, monitoring health, and making sure every pet’s needs are met on time. Because animals are already a central part of both my career and personal life, adding your pet into my routine feels seamless. They’ll be integrated into a calm, structured, and loving environment where their needs are prioritized. I provide personalized, attentive care depending on the service you book — whether that’s boarding, dog walking, doggy day care, or drop-in visits. Pets staying with me are welcomed into a calm, clean, and structured environment. While I don’t have a backyard, I make up for it with consistent walks, potty breaks, playtime, and enrichment activities throughout the day. I’m very mindful of introductions and safety, and I can easily accommodate pets who prefer separation or a more private space. Cleanliness is extremely important to me, litter boxes are scooped daily, spaces are sanitized, and feeding schedules are followed closely.
About: I’ve taken care of every kind of dog since I was about 10 years old. Throughout the years I have cared for my neighbors and family friends pets along side my own pups. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time and attention to the pets I care for. I plan my days so that walks, feeding times, playtime, and check-ins are done consistently and on schedule. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while maintaining their normal routine as much as possible. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions for feeding schedules, medications (if needed), potty breaks, and exercise so their pet experiences as little disruption as possible. In my home, I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where pets can relax, play, and receive lots of attention. I make sure they have a comfortable place to rest, regular potty breaks, supervised playtime, and plenty of affection. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect I would my own. I stick closely to the pet’s usual routine, provide walks and playtime, keep food and water fresh, and make sure the home stays tidy. I also provide updates and photos so owners can feel reassured that their pets are happy and well cared for while they’re away. My goal is always to make pets feel loved, safe, and stress-free while their owners are gone.
