“Another great stay! My girl does not like people but she loves Aaron-Joshua. No ever gets to pet her but she lets Aaron-Joshua pet her. My two babies are always well taken care of.”
About: I started volunteering at the animal shelter when I was 10. I have 5 dogs and 8 cats that I have rescued from abusive/neglectful homes, the streets, and from the shelter. I took a vet tech class in high school and a big/small animal class. I’m very good with all kinds and types of animals. I work part time currently, 4 to 5 hours a day Monday-Thursday and I’m off Friday-Sunday. I will definitely be able to care for and engage with your pet when needed. When I go to a new house to dog sit I always lock the doors and make sure to follow all rules I have been given. I stay very aware of my surroundings and the animal.
About: I do have a cat of my own and a bunny and always dog sit my family dog Capone he’s about two and an half years old! And a pitbull mix, I do have references! I can start in August mostly around 3pm until whenever! I’m very flexible with time and dog sitting or cat sitting I can do Mondays-Fridays! I always take care of my cat and bunny in the mornings and always give them my time attention after work and make sure they have fresh water and entertainment and treats!
About: I’ve had a dog ever since I was a baby and grew up visiting my grandpa’s farm in the country! My family also had cats, and I had four fish growing up! I love taking care of my family’s dog whether it be walking, exploring, or just cuddling and petting! I have had experience with all types of pets, from super energetic to ones that would sit on the couch all day long if they could! I have experience staying overnight for multiple days if needed with your pets, or dropping in a couple times a day as needed! I also love taking walks!
“Jasmine took care of my senior dog while I was away for a week. He requires a lot of medication and she did a great job making sure he got his meds on time overall great job and I would recommend her!”
“Josh took such good care of our two golden retrievers during a 10-day trip. He’s very communicative, responsible, and sent us regular updates about our girls. Josh is a wonderful pet sitter and we will definitely be booking with him again!”
“Georgia did wonderful watching and caring for my cat and dog. I was so worried leaving for a week but she has done great and sent videos of my dog enjoying a pup cup. She walked him to our local ice cream shop to give him some out time while I was gone. She’s great!!”
About: While I have the most experience taking care of cats, I do have experience with dogs, bearded dragons, and fish as well! I am also always open to learning about new animals and their care routines. I am consistent, detail oriented and passionate about caring for critters and that will always be the same no matter the animal! I am currently employed 7-3:30 5 days per week. I am able to attend to pets before and after work every day as well as on my days off. If something does not quite fit with my schedule I do have a partner who is a little more flexible and may be able to fill in. I live in a spacious townhouse, so if your pet is joining our crew we can provide them with their own space or allow them to roam with the others! If I am caring for your pet in your home, I will treat it as if its my own. I am a very cleanly person and I am detail oriented so I will attend to your surroundings as well as your pet!

About: I’ve taken care of malamutes and English bulldogs so stubborn dogs are no problem! Having a lot of patience with dogs is key when training and looking after them! I am currently a college student who is looking to fill in my weekends and week days with as much dog time as physical possible! I have an English bulldog who loves to make new friends who can keep help keep your pet active! My home is not fenced in but I spend a lot of time outside !
“Daniel saved our evening at the very last minute. Our dogs were so comfortable with him, he’s a genuinely lovely guy and we absolutely recommend him if you need someone to be with your pet 🤍”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life as my family always had a dog. I have helped raise puppies and taken care of all dogs, indoor and outdoor. I have so much fun with dogs and love taking them with me on walks! I currently am a college students who has class during the days, but my classes only take around 3 hours a day. On thursdays, I do have a job I work during the day from 7 am- 3pm. I also do have a part time job that’s schedule changes week to week but currently I’m not working much there! Regardless if you let your dog out in your yard without a leash, I will be requiring a leash (if there are no fences) to keep your dog safe and others around safe. I especially think play time and walking tim are important for animals and their health! I will not be someone who pops in and out super fast and I will build a connection with your pets!
About: I have taken care of dogs, fish, cats, and children. I am a licensed foster parent and I also have extensive medical training. I had a Jack Russell Terrier for 18 years but do not currently have any pets of my own. I will treat you pets like they are family. I work full time, but my spouse is usually home. When we run errands we are more than happy to bring your dog along with us in the car if he/she likes going “bye bye.” Pets in my home have the run of the place as if it is their own. They are allowed on the furniture. If I am pet sitting in your home I will be respectful of your space.
“Dawn stayed at our house with our two Golden Retriever's. She was awesome, she sent lots of pictures and keep us informed on how the dogs were doing. She even ran the vacuum to clean up all the dog hair :). Highly recommend her for any dog/house sitting needs.”

“Jennifer did so well with my dogs. She also made sure to give me daily updates and even sent me pictures. I will definitely be using her again in the future.”
Rayonna H.
“Ray has been an animal lover her entire life. Ray's brother said it perfectly "If anyone is looking for their kids or their animals and Ray is around, you can guarantee they are following her" She volunteered at the local animal shelter for years. She sat in on surgeries with our local veterinarian as well as with her Aunt who is a veterinarian. She has 5 rescue dogs at her parents and multiple rescue cats, most of which Ray brought in due to needing some sort of medical procedure done. She used to request money for her birthday and donate it to the local animal shelter. She has families in her home town that schedule their vacations around when she is back home so they can have her come to their house and care for their animals. I would trust her over anyone else when it comes to animals and children! Hard to find this kind of genuine kindness towards both but with her it seems to come so natural.”

“My Yorkshire terrier Cali is my world, and has some separation anxiety. Veronica did a great job making her comfortable while I was away and Cali was happy when I came back. I got so many pictures and videos of my happy puppy :)) Never had anyone else watch my pets from then on. She does great with my kitty and hamster Juice too, her enclosure was nice and clean when I came back, so was the kitty’s litter box.”
