About: I’ve lived with and cared for cats for many years—my own, fosters, and friends’. I’m attentive, respectful of their space, and genuinely enjoy spending time with them. I understand cat body language and always try to make sure they feel safe and comfortable while you're away. I work full-time during the day, but I’m available for evening and weekend visits. I’m reliable and consistent, and caring for cats is a regular part of my daily routine—even after a long day, I always make time for play, affection, and care. I clean the litter box every other day, wash and refill food bowls daily, and clean water fountains weekly. I also give cats daily affection and weekly brushing, and I always follow their lead to make sure they feel relaxed and safe in their home.
“We were very nervous about leaving our cats with someone new since we just moved them to the area and they were going through alot of change with that, but we were very happy with Lori and her attentiveness to them while we were gone. They appeared to take to her right away. We would highly recommend Lori to anyone looking for pet care.”
“Neomi was amazing! We needed a sitter last minute with our puppy, and she really helped us out. She was responsive and even switched up the timing of her visit for us. We highly recommend Neomi!”
“Heather is very attentive and makes sure that she gives clear solid photos of your furry friends. She is very helpful and makes sure all of your animals needs are met. Very reliable. Please book her! She's such a wonderful support to animal care.”
“Ariel was on time, followed all instructions, and even stayed extra for my skittish dog. Not easy taking care of my crew but Ariel handled them all well - came home to happy pups. She also communicated with me and provided updates which is what I look for in a sitter. I can recommend Ariel”
About: I bring over four years of experience working with a wide variety of dogs and cats, giving me a strong understanding of unique pet personalities. I’m a full-time college student at Morgan State University, I’m a Psych major. I have a very flexible schedule to fit into your busy day! I follow the owners schedule, I leave the house tidy as when I arrived, I send pet photo updates via messages, and reinforce positive behavior.
About: I have previous experience in caring for an Australian Shepherd/Border Collie mix for long periods at a time. Being a high energy dog- I’m prepared for anything. I’m willing to help in whatever way I can- and provide your pet with love and attention! I have always had pets, but currently can’t afford to keep one myself. Growing up I had a Rottweiler and a Jack Russell, as I became a teenager we adopted a Pit Bull type dog who really changed my perception about the breed. I have high energy myself- so I love to be able to get dogs outside as much as possible and burn off a lot of their pent up energy. Dogs need it just as much as children do! I work a normal 9-5 job usually Monday- Friday but I have a partner who works from home, who I could argue loves pets as much as I do. I have a big yard and perfect sized home that is very safe for big and small pets as it is a single floor home. I do have a crate if needed for your fur baby and will treat them like my own pet.
About: I have always loved animals and always been around them in my home. I have years of experience with feeding, exercising, and providing enrichment for both cats and dogs. I understand the importance of making sure they feel comfortable as well as respected during our time together. My goal is to ensure that your pet is happy, healthy, and cared for when you need a little extra help! I’m currently working part time, and have plenty of time to hangout with your fur babies. With my current seasonal hours slowing down, your pets can be guaranteed a sitter with pretty open availability! I have a large backyard and one level home for your fur baby. I have access to 5 miles of shaded and accessible trails as well as a dog friendly beach. My furniture is meant to be enjoyed by four-legged friends and I love taking them on “field trips” to many of the natural areas I have access to!
“Excellent. Highly recommend.”
About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was 17. I’ve help family and friends care for pets when I babysit their children. I loved being around the pets and children which is why I use my extra free time to provide attentive and loving care to others babies and fur babies as well! I currently work from home full time, so I have plenty of time to spend with your fur babies. They would have my attention and care at any time needed as I have more than enough time on my hands. I live in an apartment complex close to the beach, so I am open to caring for them in your home or mine! Whichever works best for you!

Jessi B.
“Jessi always had love for animals ever since we were little kids. Every time he spotted a stray cat or dog he would stop everything he was doing to do everything in his power to help them, for some reason as if he knew he would come across a stray he always kept food and water in a backpack in case he would come across a dog or cat. He always preferred to be around animals instead of friends or family members, they are truly his life.”
Hanna M.
“Hanna is an excellent candidate for becoming a dog walker/sitter. She has a passion for caring for others and is extremely responsible. Hanna has watched our two dogs and one cat multiple times and has always done a great job feeding them, making sure they have water, walking them and giving them all the love and attention they need. She will not disappoint!”
Margaret H.
“Margaret is a true animal-whisperer! As soon as she arrives, she gives my dog “morning affirmations,” which includes cuddling, belly rubs, and talking softly to her before taking her on a walk. When she returns, she cleans my cat’s litter box and gives my cat enrichment time while flicking a catnip toy in front of her. My cat greets Margaret every morning when she arrives and patiently waits for her turn to have attention! Aside from being great with my fur babies, Margaret is not afraid to handle my python so that he doesn’t miss out on his enrichment time either. She is literally the jack-of-all when it comes to animal care! She has the education to back up her animal husbandry expertise, and I can leave my home knowing that she can hold the fort down until I get back home!”
