About: I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life, they’ve always been a big part of my family growing up and still are to this day. I love them dearly and love opportunities to help other families watch over their beloved fur babies. I’ve got lots of experience taking care of animals all the way from puppies and kittens up to seniors! I take care of my own pets on a daily basis and also have a very open schedule to help other families with their pets! I am able to care for clients pets at their home in whatever specific way is needed for that animal. I’ve got experiencing with crating, playing, walking, administering medicine and treats, or having them within a fence or on a tie out!

Cleaned 2 litter boxes quicker than me! Very attentive, polite, nice. I was in a tough position whereas I needed to go to the ER and the pet person I had chosen and met was unavailable by phone so I had to scramble and find someone else asap and Alexandria stepped up, stopped at the grocery store because I needed cat food and milk (I paid her for it). She was wonderful!

Mackenzie was amazing. We have three medium to large size dogs, and she took great care of them. Her communication was perfect, she was immediately responsive virtually every time we reached out. We definitely plan to hire her again.

it was my first time using an outside Cat Sitter other than family members so I was quite nervous. Carly turned out to be wonderful. She was reliable, super friendly, and my baby took to her immediately I would highly recommend her as I plan on using her for any of my upcoming trips.

About: I can't currently have a pet because I'm moving soon, but I love them so much. I technically have 5: 3 cats, 2 dogs. I am very active and I love hiking and walking and nature so this gives me another excuse to be outside AND with a buddy!! I have a very flexible schedule. I am currently between jobs and looking for part time. I'm independent, have a car, and am willing to drive the extra mile if people need. I understand being busy and needing a helping hand. As long as there is strong communication and set guidelines for how your pet needs to be cared I should always be able to deliver.

About: I have the sweetest rescue pitbull who i found two years ago on the side of the highway after she got hit by a car. Poor baby was all skin and bones, had been starved and abused, and only could walk on 3 legs. Now, she’s gained 25 pounds, got fixed and vaccinated, and can walk on all legs. Now she’s my emotional support animal! She’s a total sweetheart and my best friend- even cuddles me to sleep every night :) I have actually been able to teach her how to sit, shake, and stay! Growing up my family had 4 dogs and 4 cats all of my life, so I was responsible for walking, feeding, cleaning up messes, and playing with them! I’m an online college student so i can be very flexible when it comes to scheduling and daily/weekly routines. i also have a great dog park at my complex When I am in someone’s house while pet sitting, I treat every home like it has security cameras. I’m very respectful of boundaries and safety. After feeding/walking/playing, I tidy up anything left out or any other messes. I am very friendly and have never had an animal react badly towards me.

Scott & Emily were awesome pet sitters for our 3 huskies! We are road tripping and wanted to explore nearby attractions while our pups were cool and relaxed back at our AirBnB. The pups received great care and even got homemade treats! Thanks so much!

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for 8 years now. My family relies on me to take care of their dogs while they are gone out of town every month. I feed them, walk them, and play with them. I’m currently at home full time, and available to take care of your fur baby anytime of the day or night. I have two grade school boys, ages 9 and 13, who loves small and big baby kitties. I have certain areas of my home blocked off so the kitties can’t get into anything. I also have a small baby kitty who loves to play with other fur babies and keep them company.Your baby kitties will be be perfectly safe in my home.

Ashley went above and beyond in taking care on my beloved furry family members. I was worried about them while I was gone but she made sure they felt loved. Not only feeding my animals, but taking them on walks, giving lots of pets, and spending that extra bit of time with them has made me decide to keep Ashley on for as long as possible for when I need someone to take care of my animals. 10/10 would recommend her to anyone and everyone.

About: I’ve loved dogs my whole life—I grew up with them until I left for college and couldn’t bring them with me. I know how to handle both puppies, with all their energy and training needs, and senior dogs who just need patience and comfort. I’m reliable, I’ll treat your dog like my own, and I’ll always keep you updated so you know they’re happy and cared for. I have a full time job but I’m a college soccer coach so I have a lot of flexibility and places I can bring the pups. I’m basically alyss free I grew up in a super clean and disciplined household where home meant everything. Because of that, I’ve always been big on keeping things neat and taking care of a space like it’s my own. When I’m in someone’s home, I make sure it stays tidy, organized, and safe while I’m also caring for their pets. I know how important it is to come back to a house that feels the same way you left it—if not better. So while the pets get plenty of love, attention, and routine, I’m also looking out for the home itself.
