“Samantha did an excellent job walking and feeding my dog while I was away. My dog has a sensitive stomach and unfortunately she had two accidents. Samantha helped clean up the accidents and gave my dog probiotics to help her stomach. I would highly recommend Samantha she was highly reliable and provided frequent updates.”

About: I'm a mother of 2 kids and 1 female shih tzu (moxie 12 yrs old). I work for an elementary school but am available before and after school for your pet needs . I will maintain any schedules you have and will make sure your fur babies get extra love during your time apart. I'm currently a stay at home mom. I'm available pretty much all hours of the day and night. I'm only away briefly from 3:15 -3:45 for school pickups. Besides that i'm here for you and your pups. A comfortable loving home with a fenced in yard . 2 kids to give your pups extra hugs and a 6yr old shih tzu to play alongside your pups.
About: I have grown up my whole life with dogs . I pay very close attention to their needs and will make sure that they get the attention they deserve . If they get dirty while on my watch , I will make sure they are returned clean to you . I had a dog watching business during my 4 years of college and would like to continue Post-Grad. I work from home full time so I will be able to play and walk your furry friend often . I always keep a stash of treats and will willingly give out cuddles and belly rubs. My dog is very friendly and loves other dogs. He would love a friend to play with while I’m working . I have a pet of my own that I care for daily . I walk him 3-4 times a day on my work breaks and we go to the dog park on my off days . I have a large fenced yard that can work for a lot of outside playtime and frequent potty breaks ! There is plenty of space to have the zoomies and a water bowl to stay hydrated .
About: What sets me apart is the combination of a genuinely flexible schedule, a safe fenced home environment, and two friendly resident dogs who help new pets settle in quickly and feel less anxious. I'm patient and attentive with dogs of all ages and energy levels—comfortable with the extra patience senior dogs often need (mobility, medication reminders, gentler walks) as well as the consistency and structure young or newly-trained pups thrive on. I treat every pet like my own, prioritize their normal routine, and communicate closely with owners throughout their stay. Pet care fits easily into my routine since I have a flexible schedule. I build my days around consistent feeding times, walks, and playtime, so your pet gets reliable attention whenever they need it—morning, midday, or evening. My home has a fenced yard and two friendly dogs for safe, supervised play. I closely monitor interactions, follow your pet's routine, and can crate them if needed for comfort.
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have always been the type of person who notices their little routines, quirks, and personalities. I’m patient, dependable, and happy to follow whatever routine your pet is used to, whether that means walks, playtime, feeding schedules, extra cuddles, or giving them a little space. I know how stressful it can be leaving your pets with someone else, so I want you to feel comfortable knowing they’re being cared for like they matter. My schedule gives me flexibility to fit pet care into my week, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine as much as possible. I’m available for drop ins, house sitting, feeding, playtime, walks, and plenty of check ins. I also don’t mind sending lots of photo updates so you can see how things are going while you’re away. I take pet care and being in someone else’s home seriously. I’ll follow your instructions closely, keep doors and gates secure, stick to feeding and medication routines, and pay attention to any changes in your pet’s behavior. I also like to know all the little details ahead of time, including hiding spots, escape-artist tendencies, favorite toys, and anything else that helps your pet feel safe and comfortable.

About: I've been working with animals for the past 5 Years! I started as a dog daycare attendant for a year where I learned how to read dog body language and behavior as well as how to handle emergency situations with dogs. I then became a full time pet sitter on my own and would watch all kinds of animals from household reptiles, small animals, cat, and of course dogs! After 1 year of this I switched to part time sitter to become a full time dog trainer! I trained for a year before becoming a manager at a pet hotel. I love my job to this day and still care for dogs and cats at my current job! I'm currently a stay at home mom for my babies so I am always home a ready to provide care! I usually (as weather permits of course) take a morning walk between 8-10am with my dog and my boarding friends, hang out around the house and backyard until our evening walk before bed around 8-10pm after the sun is down! I am constantly boarding dogs in my home so I do have extra crates if needed otherwise I only have 1 dog of my own who is a St. Bernard and is pretty lazy so he will be there to keep my boarding dogs company but also knows to nap if the other dogs need a break from playing. When I go to clients homes I always find a way to occupy my time with my clients and keep my attention on those animals!
“Renee was an excellent dog walker! Renee made sure they got their walks and gave us peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. We truly appreciate her help and highly recommend Renee to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dependable dog walker!”

“My Bailey's home away from home!! Ok so a little background- my dog Bailey is a rescue who was physically abused by her previous owner. For this reason, she is utterly terrified of new people because she has a natural distrust for people following early life events. Kristen and her family originally spent time coming to my house to walk Bailey and spend time with her, and Bailey had been doing well with the new dog walkers! However, after learning about Bailey's concerns, Kristen thought it may improve Bailey's situation to have her spend the day at doggy daycare, and let me tell you, she and her family have done an amazing job taking care of Bailey!!! I've never seen her so happy every day when I come to pick her up (and probably even more happy to be dropped off :P). It's only been a few weeks and I can already tell Kristen and her family are making her feel at home away from home, and carefully allowing her to interact with other dogs and humans when Bailey is ready. I've been absolutely overjoyed seeing her improvement in socialization skills, and, really, just how happy and comfortable she is; makes my day! On a side note, following several meetings with a Behavioralist, I'm actively training her to help improve her anxiety and fear toward people. Kristen understands how important this is and has been ensuring Bailey is trained (in the same way I'm training her for continuity sake) while at doggy daycare, since I don't have the opportunity to train her several times throughout the day during the work week. Her obedience has improved, and better yet, she's starting to see new people with a different outlook; she's excited to make new friends! Thank you Kristen!!”

About: 🐾 「 ✦ Hello, Fur Parents! ✦ 」 🐾 Hi! I'm Kimberly, a work-at-home mom with a flexible schedule and a lifelong love of animals. I currently specialize exclusively in drop-in pet care, giving your pets personalized attention while allowing them to stay happy, comfortable, and relaxed in their own home. 🏡💕 I know how stressful it can be to leave your pets behind, so my goal is to make things as easy as possible for both you and them. During each visit, I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine and provide plenty of attention, affection, playtime, meals, fresh water, potty breaks, litter box care, and other basic needs based on your instructions. 📷 And yes, you’ll get updates! I love sending photos and visit updates so you can see exactly how your furry family member is doing while you’re away. Be prepared for some very cute pictures! 🐶 Experience With All Kinds of Pets Our own family has included dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, a turtle, and a lizard, so my animal-care experience goes well beyond dogs and cats. I’m comfortable caring for a variety of pets and personalities, from energetic pups who are thrilled to see a visitor to shy kitties who prefer that I earn their trust from across the room first. 🐱 🐾 「 ✦ Drop-In Visits May Include: ✦ 」 🐾 • Feeding and refreshing water • Potty breaks and backyard time • Playtime, cuddles, and companionship • Litter box cleaning • Basic medication according to your instructions • Care for cats, dogs, and many small pets • Photos and updates after visits 📸 • Bringing in packages or mail and other small pet-related household tasks while you're away I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. I’ll take the time to learn what makes your pet feel safe and happy and follow your care instructions closely. Whether you're away for the day, working long hours, or heading out of town, I'd love to help keep your pets comfortable and cared for right where they feel best: at home. 🐾❤️ I work from home and have a very flexible schedule, which makes pet care an easy and natural part of my daily routine! 🐾 I’m able to schedule drop-in visits throughout the day and can often accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits. I enjoy getting out of the house, spending time with animals, and giving them some love and attention while their families are away. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break and meal, some playtime, or simply a little companionship, I’m happy to work their normal routine into my day. 💕 Since I exclusively offer drop-in visits, I care for pets right where they’re most comfortable: in their own home! 🏡🐾 I carefully follow each pet parent’s instructions regarding feeding, potty breaks, medications, playtime, and household routines. Safety is always a priority. I make sure doors, gates, crates, and other designated areas are secure before I leave, and I’m mindful of each pet’s individual personality and boundaries. I never force interaction with a nervous or shy pet and am happy to let them warm up to me at their own pace. I also send photos and updates after visits so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. 💕
About: I've owned at least eight dogs in my life, and taken care of at least six of my friends and family's dogs multiple times. I am currently attending college, but have very few classes, so I have plenty of time to care for animals. I also donate plasma two days a week, but it never lasts longer than an hour, so it shouldn't effect my care. I ensure my animals have plenty of time to use the bathroom frequently, and am very good at following instructions given to me for the animal.
About: I have experience taking care of animals from big to small, young and old. I have experience with the elderly, disabled, administering medication, and special dietary needs. I have a special interest in exotic animals. I have worked with all kinds of reptiles and hope to work with more! I am currently a full-time college student and go to school Monday and Wednesday from 9-3:30 every week. A have a small window of free time from 12:30-1:30 on the days I have school. I make sure my client's home and in the same condition as they were when I entered. I take pride in knowing that any messes, hair, accidents, or any incidents get cleaned up in a quick and concise manner. I make sure to give the animals I care for an enriching environment. I make a point to play with and give affection to the animals for at least 30 minutes every visit.
About: Feel free to ask me about pricing! After being diagnosed with a chronic illness, I turned pet sitting into my full time passion. Working from home gives me the flexibility to care for your babies any time and anywhere. With over nine years of experience, I have been a dedicated caretaker for animals of all sizes. My services include walking, bathing, feeding, sitting, and boarding pets. I have a lot of experience with elderly, reactive, and ill pets. When house-sitting, I ensure your pets are well-cared for with regular walks, feeding, watering, and bathing as needed, along with additional household tasks like watering plants. During drop-in visits, I provide feeding, watering, and playtime for at least 30 minutes, extending the time if your pets need extra attention and care. I particularly enjoy daily dog walks, whether it's through a local park or a favorite trail specified by the owner. Every service comes with plenty of photos and updates, keeping you connected with your beloved pets. What sets me apart is the genuine connection I develop with each animal. I truly assess and respond to their needs and emotions, going beyond the basic requirements because I genuinely care. For your convenience, I offer same-day booking and cancellation to accommodate your schedule. If you have any questions, please feel free to email, call, or text me at any time. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend! If I am booked for your pet, they are my main priority. My routine revolves around them as if they were my own. The more time I get to spend with furry friends the better! Each pet is different and require different levels of attention. I am happy to fill in for the owner in any way that is needed. Sometimes that looks like standing outside with the pet during potty time. Sometimes that looks like ensuring nothing in left out on the ground or counters. I also do not take any pet to a place that is unsafe or that I or the owner are unfamiliar with. Safety first!
About: This is my full time job. I've taken care of most dog breeds and cats since I was young. I also come from a family with a small farm with cows, donkeys, and goats as well. We also have 6 dogs on the ranch. Animals have always been a passion of mine. I am also currently taking classes on pet training to further my education and understanding of animals. I offer free training until graduation along with booking! I am very organized and like to stay on top of priorities. I build my schedule so that each pet gets dedicated one‑on‑one time, and I always arrive within the agreed‑upon window. My routine is structured enough to stay reliable, but flexible enough to adjust to your pet’s needs. I’m very organized and make sure every pet receives focused, reliable care. Your pet’s comfort is always my priority, and I can adjust visit styles as needed.
About: With over 30 years of hands-on experience, I’ve cared for and loved dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and needs, from energetic puppies to senior companions requiring a little extra patience and support. I also have extensive personal experience caring for dogs with chronic and age-related medical needs. My own dogs have included dogs with diabetes, Addison’s disease, and senior dogs requiring specialized daily care. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust to follow medication schedules, recognize changes in behavior or condition, and provide the extra attention medically complex and senior pets may need. My experience includes: • Monitoring and testing blood sugar • Administering insulin injections • Administering oral and other routine medications • Basic wound care and recovery support • Caring for dogs with Addison’s disease • Supporting senior dogs with mobility and age-related needs • Following detailed feeding, medication, and care schedules Beyond medical needs, I’m happy to provide all the things that make your dog feel comfortable and loved—walks, playtime, meals, potty breaks, companionship, and plenty of snuggles. Whether you have a playful puppy, a senior sweetheart, or a dog who needs specialized medical attention, you can feel confident knowing they’ll be cared for by someone who understands that every dog has their own routine, personality, and needs. I work remotely from home, which means I can give your pets the attention they deserve — right when they need it most. I’m available for morning, lunchtime, and evening drop-ins, whether it’s a walk, a cuddle break, or making sure medications are given on schedule. With over 30 years of experience, including medical care for pets with special needs, I’m here to keep tails wagging and give you peace of mind while you’re away. I believe pets feel most secure in their own familiar surroundings. When I provide care in your home, I follow your routines closely to keep things consistent and stress-free for your furry family members. Safety: I double-check doors, gates, and food/medications to ensure your pets (and your home) stay safe. Trust: Your home is treated with the same respect I give my own. I provide updates, photos, and clear communication so you have peace of mind while you’re away. Environment: I maintain your pet’s normal feeding, exercise, and cuddle schedule — whether that’s a morning walk, a lunchtime play break, or evening snuggles.
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was a child. I had 6 large dogs I would take care of on top of a pet sitting business I ran when I was 15. I have experience with exotic animals as well as cats and dogs! I have lots of energy and I promise your pet won't realize you were gone until you come back! I am in between jobs and I am a mom! I am available any time that I am not having to pick up my son from school. (7:10 am and 3:30pm) But I can be available around those times! Depending on requirements, crating your fur baby won't be an issue. However, while I am there I will be by them at all times. I will make sure if they are outside so am I! If you would like walking time, I will come over to make sure I know how your harness/collar works before ever trying on my own.
About: I have years of experience caring for dogs of all ages—from playful puppies to calm seniors. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed,and provide a safe and loving environment. I’m patient, reliable, and very attentive to each dog’s unique personality and needs! Pet care fits easily into my routine because I have a flexible schedule. I’m available throughout the day for walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, and cuddles.

About: I've grown up around dogs and currently have three of my own, so caring for them has been part of my daily life for years. I've also dog sat for family and friends, handling feeding, walks, playtime, and making sure pets feel comfortable while their owners are away. I understand that every dog has a different personality and routine, and I always prioritize their safety, happiness, and well-being. I'll treat your pet with the same care and attention I give my own, and I'll keep you updated with photos and messages during every visit. I'm currently a university student with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide dependable pet care throughout the week. I do my best to accommodate each pet's routine, whether that means morning walks, afternoon visits, or evening check-ins. I'm happy to communicate with owners to find a schedule that works best for both them and their pets. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities.

I'll always keep doors, gates, and leashes secure, provide plenty of attention and exercise, and send regular photo and text updates so you know your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away.
About: I've had pets my whole life and find no other pleasure than taking care of them like my children. I currently have two dogs, and would have 10 more if I could.

Communication is a must so you will know exactly how your pet is doing at all times along with pictures so you can be rest assured your fur baby is doing great! I am very aware of my surroundings and will keep your pet my first priority when walking. During a walk, other animals can come out of nowhere and I am prepared to handle that.

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.
