About: I’ve cared for a variety of animals through both personal ownership and pet-sitting for friends and family. My experience includes dogs, cats, guinea pigs, lizards, and chinchillas. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, cleaning habitats/litter, playtime, walks, and giving pets patient, attentive care. I understand that every animal has a different personality and comfort level, and I work to make pets feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while their owners are away. I work a consistent weekday schedule from 7–5, which allows me to plan pet care reliably into my routine. I am able to drop-in during my work day during house sits to address any mid-day needs, in addition to being available for early morning, evening, and weekend care. I care for pets by keeping their routines consistent and stress-free. Whether I’m doing drop-ins, walks, or house sitting, I make sure pets are fed, exercised, cleaned up after, and given plenty of attention and care. I’m attentive to each pet’s personality and needs, and I always keep owners updated while they’re away.

Heather was an amazing sitter for our 11 yr old PORTY! Oreo loved meeting her and they hit it off immediately. I reached out to Heather for a drop in a few days prior and she was accommodating and was great about sharing messages and photos on her visit-Oreo loved her walk and we will certainly use her again!

About: I’ve been a dedicated pet owner for over 9 years and have hands-on experience caring for dogs of different personalities and needs. I currently care for my own dog, handling daily responsibilities like feeding, walking, bathing, and making sure they stay happy, healthy, and active. In addition to caring for my own pet, I’ve spent several years helping friends and family with their dogs. I regularly provide drop-in visits while they’re on vacation, making sure their pets are well-fed, comfortable, and get plenty of attention. I also take dogs on walks, keep up with their routines, and ensure they feel safe and cared for while their owners are away. I treat every pet like my own, with patience, love, and attention to detail. Whether it’s a quick check-in or a longer visit, I’m committed to providing reliable, trustworthy care and giving pet owners peace of mind. I am a student at WPI, so I am currently looking for summer work. I will be available every weekday early mornings to mid/late afternoon. I am willing to be flexible on my time availability and the amount of visits I can do depending on what the client is looking for. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for any pet. I always take the time to understand each pet’s routine, needs, and personality to make sure they feel comfortable and secure. In a client’s home, I respect your space and follow all instructions closely. Whether that’s feeding schedules, walk routines, medications, or specific house rules. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while maintaining the environment they’re used to. I also keep a close eye on their behavior and well-being and will update you regularly for peace of mind. When walking or caring for pets, I prioritize safety by keeping dogs securely leashed, avoiding unsafe situations, and staying aware of surroundings at all times. Overall, I aim to create a calm, loving, and dependable experience so both you and your pet feel completely at ease while you’re away.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and have owned five long-haired German Shepherds over the years, along with a Dachshund. Right now, I currently have three dogs named Coltrane, Jackson, and Oliver, so caring for animals has always been a huge part of my daily life. I’m extremely comfortable around dogs of all breeds, sizes, personalities, and energy levels, including large dogs that require confidence, patience, and structure. Beyond personal experience, I’ve spent years working as a coach and mentor for children of all ages, which taught me responsibility, attentiveness, patience, and how to stay calm in fast-paced situations. Between traveling professionally, coaching, and caring for animals at home, I’ve developed strong communication skills, reliability, and a very nurturing personality. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, exercised, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m currently very flexible throughout the summer and have plenty of availability during both weekdays and weekends. I’m home in New Hampshire until late August before returning to the University of Tampa for school. Because I only work part-time, I have a lot of free time to dedicate to pet care, walks, playtime, check-ins, and making sure your pets get the attention and companionship they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I have years of experience around dogs of all sizes and personalities, especially large breeds like German Shepherds. At home, I have two friendly long haired German Shepherds and a Dachshund, so I’m very comfortable managing multiple dogs and understanding different energy levels and behaviors. I always make sure pets feel safe, supervised, exercised, and cared for, whether in my home or a client’s home. I’m also happy to follow any routines, feeding schedules, crate training, medication instructions, or special care requests to keep your pet comfortable and stress free.

When my cat was diagnosed with diabetes I was so stressed about finding someone to administer insulin shots while I was away. Taylor has taken care of my cat on numerous occasions and I never worry. He’s always well taken care of. Taylor is responsible and reliable - she’s the best!

About: Hi there! My name is Ayslinn, pronounced “eyes-linn”, but you can also call me River. Growing up in a home where my mom was a dog groomer, I was always surrounded by dogs and learned from a young age how to care for them with love and patience. Over the years, I’ve helped friends train their dogs, including a lively husky, and I’ve worked with many different breeds, from tiny lap dogs to big, high-energy pups. I also have experience caring for puppies and nervous dogs, providing gentle patience to help them feel safe and comfortable. My focus is always on making sure every pet gets the exercise, attention, and affection they deserve. Whether it’s a playful puppy, a shy companion, or an energetic dog who loves long walks, I treat every pet like family. I work full-time Monday through Thursday from 5:30am to 3:30pm, so my primary availability is on weekends. Throughout October I won’t be available after 5:00pm as I’ll be working weekend nights. I’m open for walks, and pet sitting throughout the weekend during the day and can occasionally do evenings after 4:30pm on weekdays if needed. Just let me know what you need, and I’ll do my best to accommodate. I can’t host dogs in my apartment, but I provide safe, reliable care in your home so your pup feels comfortable in their own space. I follow your routines closely, whether that’s feeding, walking, or crate training, and I’m experienced with many breeds, puppies, and nervous dogs. I’m also comfortable with special instructions like giving medications or sticking to unique schedules, and I’ll keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you know your pet is happy and well cared for.

Anna & Jordan did a super job caring for my cat while I was out of town. She sent updates and photos so I knew how Oliver was doing and kept the litter box area clean and tidy. The house was in great shape when I returned. I will be booking them again!!
