About: I’ve cared for small dogs my whole life — from playful puppies to sweet senior companions. Growing up in a home full of small dogs taught me to be patient, attentive, and in tune with their needs. I also help care for our big family dog, who’s a senior but still loves his walks and belly rubs. Whether it’s playtime, walks, cuddles, or giving medication, I provide reliable, loving care that helps your pet feel safe, relaxed, and right at home while you're away. I have free time most evenings and can also make time in the mornings. Since I care for my own cat daily, pet care is already a natural part of my routine. I'm happy to be flexible and work pet visits into my schedule — whether it’s morning feedings, evening walks, or check-ins throughout the day, I’ll make sure your pet gets the care and attention they need. I don’t offer pet care in my own home, as I have a cat who’s a bit territorial. However, I’m more than happy to care for your pet in their own home where they feel most comfortable and secure. I always prioritize safety, follow your instructions closely, and aim to keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible when it comes to walks, feeding schedules, or just spending time keeping them company.

“Highly highly recommend Tena! She has been wonderful with Reese. Tena was incredibly attentive during our initial meeting, has been very communicative throughout the walks, and is very knowledgeable about pet care - her passion for dogs shows in her work.”

“I have NEVER heard my dog scream in excitement like he did when he saw Matt again yesterday! If I ever die, I really hope Matt & Jenni would consider taking him in! Their dog, Daisy, is seriously my dog's favorite girlfriend. Thank you both for so lovingly enriching his life!”

About: I don’t just watch pets—I care for them as if they’re my own. With experience handling dogs, cats, and even small animals, I’m comfortable with everything from energetic puppies who need structure and training, to senior pets who require extra patience, gentle walks, and medication. I believe every pet deserves personalized attention, so I tailor my care to fit their personality and needs—whether that means long walks, extra playtime, calming snuggles, or sticking closely to their routines. I also make sure you feel connected while you’re away with regular updates and photos, so you always know your pet is safe, happy, and cared for. I have over 20 years of experience caring for people's children and pets. These are the most valuable possessions in ones life . I am out of work right now due to a chronic illness and since I am a Mom and need to pay bills. I'm also teaching my mature 8 year old son who loves animals about responsibility. When I care for pets, safety and comfort come first. I make sure every animal is in a stress-free, secure environment—whether I’m walking them or staying in your home. I follow your pet’s routines closely, from feeding schedules to favorite playtimes, so they feel at ease and cared for. In your home, I respect your space as much as your pet’s—keeping everything clean, secure, and as you left it. In my home, pets are supervised, get plenty of exercise, and always have a cozy, safe spot to relax. I’m also careful about introductions with other animals, secure leash handling, and keeping pets away from hazards both indoors and outdoors. My goal is to build trust—not just with you, but with your pets—so they feel loved and safe while you’re away.

About: I’ve cared for all sorts of pets Chihuahua/Jack Russells, Pitbulls, Guinea Pigs, Cats, Beta Fish. Some had “human” problems and I created bonds with them. Some had been abandoned and I learned about and cared for them. Some I cared for from infancy to the end of their seniority. Some had Lymphoma and other health issues so I administered medicine and provided a comfortable and exciting way of life for them according to the pet’s desires. I sprint with pit bulls and relax with senior dogs, I create a playful and exciting environments and sometimes nap with dogs on the grass. I love the outdoors but even indoors there’s fun to be had. Regardless of the type of Pet I was always more than willing to learn more about them and adapt to what the owner and most of all what the Pet wanted. I hope that I can have the honor of meeting and getting to know your pet and in the process help you as the owner/parent by providing a great price knowing that your pet will receive the best of love and care. I’m currently available most days of the week with the exception of being busy on Wednesdays and Sunday’s but I still have time on Wednesdays. The more info I have about your pet the better I can care for your pet. I usually do my best to stick to a routine or at least somewhat of a schedule so that I can make sure to stay on track for feeding, walking, play time/free time.

About: My sisters both have pets that I take care of regularly. Whether big or small, I will play, walk and spend lots of time with them so they don’t feel lonely <3 I’ll be moving out of state at the beginning of August, so just looking to make some extra cash to help with the pricey moving process. I’ll be in Columbia the majority of the summer so my hours are very flexible! I will follow any and all instructions you give me, and I’ll send you lots of pictures and videos while you’re gone if that’s your thing!

About: I've gained hands-on experience through helping care for my friend’s and relative’s pets over the years. This has taught me how to be patient, attentive, and responsive to different animals' needs. Whether it was walking dogs, feeding on a routine, or keeping pets calm, I learned how important it is to provide reliable, loving care. What sets me apart is that I treat every pet like family—because I’ve seen firsthand how much trust it takes to leave a beloved animal in someone else's care. As a substitute teacher, my summer schedule is very flexible, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to taking care of your pet. Without a fixed classroom schedule, I’m able to plan my days around the needs of the pets I care for—whether that’s regular walks, feeding times, play sessions, or check-ins. I enjoy having that extra time in the summer to give pets the attention and consistency they need while their owners are away. I always strive to create a calm, safe environment where pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. Before each stay, I ask for detailed instructions and preferences so I can follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible. I ensure they’re fed on schedule, have fresh water, and receive plenty of attention, playtime, or walks based on their individual needs. Communication is a top priority for me, so I provide regular updates and photos to keep owners informed and reassured throughout my time with your pet.

“Felipe was timely & thorough with his visits & provided plenty of updates throughout!”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life! I love dogs so much and am excited to get to know yours. I have experience with dogs ranging from puppies to seniors. We aim to walk about two miles a day and would love for your pup to join us! Dogs are allowed on couches and on the bed here. I have experience with different types of needs - food motivation, diapers, medicine, etc. Let me know what your pet needs to feel at home! I work from home five days a week. My dogs need frequent care, so I can provide frequent care for yours as well! Dogs are embedded into my weekly routine. I have a (soon to be fenced in) yard that my dogs often explore. We have walking paths around the neighborhood we use just about every day! We have a spacious home and plenty of room for another friend :)

About: With over 15 years of experience caring for a diverse range of pet breeds and ages, I offer personalized, trustworthy pet sitting that prioritizes your furry family members' unique needs. I understand how much pets mean to their owners, and I’m dedicated to providing the highest level of care and companionship while you’re away. Your pets will feel safe, loved, and right at home! I am fortunate to be able to work from home Monday-Friday, which allows me flexibility throughout the day to serve families in my area for short visits or walks. Weekends are wide open for longer visits or even overnight stays! I prioritize safety, trust, and a nurturing environment in all my pet sitting services. Your pets deserve a secure and loving space, and I ensure they receive the highest level of care and attention while you’re away. My back yard is fully fenced as well. You can rest easy knowing that your furry friends are in safe hands.

About: I can clean up crates, help with administering meds, give baths to small dogs, but mostly it’s the love and companionship that fills my heart. I am newly retired, can’t wait to care for your baby / babies as well as keeping each other company. Available Monday through Friday flexible. I will work closely with your schedule and provide the love and support as if mommy or daddy were home. Bonding and trust is crucial.

About: I'm a passionate dog lover with a special knack for puppy training. I'm also a proud corgi mom, so I know how to handle even the most energetic breeds with patience and love! I'm currently working full time as a phlebotomist, but I have off every Sunday and at least one other week day. Also, every other week I work day shift so I have time to walk your pet if need be in the evenings. All you have to do is ask if I'm available a certain day at least 3 days in advance and I'll be sure to tell you if I can help! I currently live in an apartment and have plenty of space in the living room to set up your dog's bed, crate, food bowls, etc. Plus, if they feel lonely, I have a 1 and a half your old corgi named Clyde who is super friendly and playful. However, if you need your dog to cared for alone, I am able to keep Clyde in a separate area. On another note, if I needed to come to your place to do a drop in visit, please know I would respect your space and follow the instructions you provide.

About: The first dog I've had i trained, walked, and took care of her on my own at a young age. Even when she wasn't mine. Im in school at the moment so I have a bunch of free time to check in and walk any dogs in need of attention! I cannot bring animals into my home but I will make sure to follow and rules given to me by the parent in their home.

About: I can definitely relate to the stress caused by taking out the suitcases when it comes to your pets. Those sad eyes! Or maybe you have the occasional extra-long day at work or away from home, and just want the peace of mind that comes with knowing the dog was able to go out, get some attention, and eat at his normal time. I also know what a relief it is to find a reliable and caring pet sitter - especially one who goes the extra mile to make sure you can spend your time away from home knowing the animals are well cared for. I’d love to meet you and your dog(s) and/or cat(s) ahead of time, but life happens - so I am available on short notice as well. My schedule is pretty flexible and I am happy to consider any special needs your pets might have, dietary, meds, etc. I live in Newark, DE & currently have lots of flexibility in my days to accommodate your needs for pet sitting or walking. You can usually find me outside and I’m often taking a walk - with my cat in his stroller! (He loves it!) I’d love to give your pup some exercise on my next walk. And I’m all his during our outings :) Just tell me what you need me to do! Let me know anything to be aware of, likes/dislikes, if you’d like photos while you’re away… basically I will treat your fur-baby the same way I would want a sitter to treat mine.

About: I will love your fur babies like my own! My family & friends have always relied on me to take good care of their babies while they were away. I will spoil them with love to make their experience & yours the absolute best! I will work with you to find a schedule that fits both mine & yours. I work part time at my job & the other time I will dedicate to finding the perfect times to fit what you need! Your pet(s) will play, be loved & pose for pictures so I can keep you updated at all times. They will burn off energy by going on walks or playing with toys & get lots of cuddles after!

About: I’ve had the pleasure of taking care of three dogs throughout my life. I enjoy playing, providing snuggles, and of course some yummy treats! I typically take care of dogs who are a little older but I am also comfortable with puppies! I’m currently on winter break from college and I would like to make extra money while being in the company of some fun pups! I’m typically available throughout the week and weekends! I try to be active with the dogs, letting them out and playing with them but also allowing them to have some time socializing. I don’t mind crating them or following any routines that the dog may have!
