About: Caring for pets has been a lifelong part of who I am. I grew up in a home full of dogs—my mom has four of her own—and I’ve helped raise and care for them through every stage of life, from playful puppy energy to the slower pace of their senior years. This hands-on experience taught me not just how to meet a dog’s needs, but how to truly understand and bond with them. Outside of pet care, I work closely with individuals living with Alzheimer’s, which has instilled in me a deep sense of patience, empathy, and attentiveness. I know how to read body language, respond calmly under stress, and provide gentle, dependable care—skills that translate naturally to animals, especially those who are anxious, older, or need a little extra reassurance. I treat every pet like family, because that’s what they are. When your pet is with me, they’ll be safe, loved, and cared for with the same dedication I give my own. While I do work full time Monday through Friday from 8:30 to 5, pet care still fits naturally into my routine. I’m typically available on weekdays after 5:00 PM and can often head straight to a visit after work. On weekends, my schedule is wide open—those are my slower, more relaxed days, and I love spending them caring for pets, whether that’s walks, drop-ins, or extended stays. Because I’m usually home and not overbooked on weekends, I’m able to give pets my full attention and keep them feeling comfortable and loved while you’re away. If your pet just needs a little company in the evenings or full-on weekend care, I’m here and happy to help. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or welcoming them into mine, I aim to create a space where they feel safe, calm, and cared for like family. I don’t currently have pets of my own, which means your dog gets my full attention without the stress of sharing space or adjusting to new animals. My home is quiet, clean, and adaptable to your dog’s unique routine and preferences—whether they need a cozy crate to feel secure or prefer to roam freely and relax on the couch. While I don’t have a yard, I’m more than happy to take dogs on walks and find safe nearby spaces where they can sniff, explore, and stretch their legs. I know how important it is for dogs to get both exercise and stimulation, especially when they’re away from home. I follow your lead when it comes to routines—from feeding times to potty breaks, medication, crate training, and cuddle sessions. I want your pet to feel like nothing’s changed while you’re away, and I work hard to keep things as familiar, loving, and consistent as possible. Whether they’re staying with me or I’m visiting them in their own space, your pet will be treated with kindness, patience, and genuine care every step of the way.

About: Hi there! I’m a full-time mom with a big heart for animals — and years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, and medical needs. Whether you need help with daily walks, feedings, medication, or just some loving company for your furry friend while you're away, I provide dependable, compassionate care you can trust. I've raised both dogs and cats from playful kittens and puppies to senior pets with special needs, and I understand how important it is to have someone responsible and attentive looking after your beloved companions. ✨ Hard-working ✨ Trustworthy ✨ Flexible scheduling ✨ Experienced with medications and special care needs Let’s chat about how I can help you and your pet! As a full-time mom, my daily routine is built around care, attention, and responsibility — the same values I bring to pet care. I'm home throughout the day and evening, which gives me the flexibility to provide pet visits, feedings, medications, playtime, or just some quiet company whenever your pet needs it. My calm, structured home life allows me to give your pet consistent, loving care while still being available for early morning, mid-day, or nighttime visits. Pet care isn’t just a side job — it’s something that fits naturally into my life and brings me joy. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat it with the same respect and care I would my own. I understand how important it is to feel confident that your home and pets are in trustworthy hands. I follow your specific instructions closely, whether it’s feeding schedules, medication routines, or just the little habits that make your pet feel comfortable and secure. Safety is always my top priority — I double-check doors and gates, clean up after pets properly, and keep an eye out for anything unusual in your pet’s behavior or environment. I’ll gladly send updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you're away. My goal is to give your pet loving, consistent care and give you total peace of mind.

About: As a mom to one dog and two cats, I understand pets are family. Working from home lets me give them full attention and adapt to their routines. From special diets to insulin care, I provide patient, respectful, and loving care tailored to each unique personality. Working from home means pet care fits naturally into my day. I can stick to feeding and medication schedules, take time for walks and play, and give each pet attention tailored to their personality and needs. I’m patient and take the time to understand each pet’s personality, giving love in the way they enjoy most. I follow all care instructions closely, keep pets happy and engaged, and provide regular updates so owners always feel confident their pets are safe and well cared for.

About: I’ve watched both family pets, and the pets of others for about 5 years, and I’ve been able to successfully provide efficient care. I live with my grandparents, who also have a dog that I help take care of on a daily basis. I’m currently open to all times of the day and most days of the week! I would be more than happy to watch your animals on the weekday as well as the weekend. I care for pets by keeping surveillance over them as much as possible, as well as making sure they are in a safe and clean environment.

About: My fiancé and I have both had dogs growing up, and have spent time dog sitting for friends and family. We have a young dog (Stella) that loves to play with any dog she meets. We both work hybrid, so there is always someone home during the work day. We have a fenced in backyard that is perfect for dogs, but we also prioritize taking our dog on walks in the evenings. We have a fenced in yard that can be used to let dogs out to play, we also have a play pen and crate if needed but we let our dog free roam most of the time.

About: I have been taking care of dogs for family, friends, and neighbors since I was 14. I have grown up around dogs and currently have a senior beagle. I also have experience volunteering at animal shelters with dogs of many sizes, breeds, and ages, from puppies to seniors. I’m a college student who works part-time, so I have lots of time to spend with your dog! I am available most evenings as well as weekends and some mornings. I have plenty of dog walking experience in both high- and low-traffic areas. As a sitter, I am able to stay in-home with your pet or do drop-in visits.

About: I can be very patient with your pet, as I needed to learn it from my own dog. My dog suffers separation anxiety and I am still training him. Some weeks I am working from home and I can take care of your pet. In the meantime your pet can also play with mine and I will take them potty together. Also I can be some weekends with your pet. I will give them their own space in the house and I will also feed them separately to avoid any issue fight because of the food.

“Frances is awesome! She has taken care of my cats many times. She is prompt and communicates very well about how they are doing. She feeds them, makes sure they have water and everything they need and plays with them. She also gave my older cat liquid oral medication. I will definitely have her take care of my cats again!”
