About: I have taken care of pets from a young age since I grew up with them always! I’d be happy to bathe, feed, walk, and play with dogs and cats!! I am currently not working so I have a lot of time; since I am in the process of looking for a healthcare job, I thought it would be super fun to take care of pets during my free time! I have a spacious apartment so they don’t feel closed in and my roommate has a cat to keep them company! I also live in a gated community to help keep pets safe when walking them.

I don’t just take dogs on walks i run around in circles with them. I even play hide n seek with my cat. Anyway a pup or cat likes to play im in.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 7. Growing up my neighbors trusted me to walk, feed, and care for their animals when they were away. In recent years I have cat/dog/house sit for various friends and acquaintances. I’m currently working full time but have some flexibility in my days. I’m mostly available in the mornings and evenings on weekdays and anytime on the weekend. If I’m working in your home, I understand my sole role is for the animal(s) and that you are placing your trust in me to care for your pet(s) and I will be respectful of your living space.

I have cared for dogs and cats from playful puppy and kitten stages to their senior years, giving me firsthand experience with their evolving needs.

This flexibility means I can accommodate their needs without the constraints of a rigid schedule. Whether it’s feeding, administering medication, going on walks, or simply offering companionship, I can ensure your pet receives attentive care tailored to their routine. Because I’m home throughout the day, I can provide frequent potty breaks, interactive playtime, and regular check-ins, ensuring your pet feels safe, engaged, and well cared for.

Because I work from home, your pet will receive consistent supervision, companionship, and care throughout the day. I tailor their daily schedule to match their usual routine, including feeding times, potty breaks, play sessions, and quiet time. For pets with special needs, I can administer medications, accommodate dietary restrictions, and provide any additional care required to keep them happy and healthy. For pets who are more comfortable in their own environment, I also offer house visits. I have a reliable vehicle, allowing me to travel to your home for check-ins, feeding, walks, and playtime. House visits are ideal for pets who prefer familiar surroundings or those who require minimal disruption to their routine. During each visit, I ensure your pet’s needs are met by providing fresh food and water, potty breaks, litter box cleaning (for cats), playtime, and any specific care requests you may have. I also take the time to build trust with your pet, making sure they feel safe and comfortable in your absence. If needed, I can send updates, photos, or videos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is well cared for. Whether in my home or yours, I am committed to providing attentive, loving, and reliable care tailored to your pet’s unique needs.

“My lab took to Sarah immediately. Her warm, caring personality was very evident immediately. She is adaptable and dependent. I will be using her for a long time.”


About: I had two small dogs ever since I was 2 years old. I loved playing with them and taking them outside to potty and get some fresh air.

Since then I’ve had 2 cats both since they were kittens. I love playing and spoiling all animals. It brings such joy to watch their energy go up just from some enrichment. I’m an online college student who doesn’t really do much except chill at home with my cat lol. i’m available anytime anyday. Some days i am out of town but my availability is always up to date!

I also scoop his litter boxes 3 times a day as well as deep cleaning his litter box and surrounding weekly and his food bowl after each use. I’m very passionate about animals health and cleanliness. For in home check-ins I will do whatever the client prefers/asks. I can deep clean a litter box, scoop, wash dog beds, clean food/water bowls, give vitamins or medicine and most importantly make sure they get some good play and love!

“Aryana is an excellent pet sitter and I have trusted her with my pets many times. I have a larger one year old dog with a lot of energy and she makes sure to run all of that out of him which is a huge help. She pays as much attention to our animals as she would her own. She plays with them, takes care of them, and most importantly, she is very responsible and will do whatever your pet needs. I highly recommend her!”

“Our 70lb, 5 year old boxer, Penny, is a bit of a nervous girl who doesn’t like change or for us to be out of town or away for long. When we’re gone for the day or overnight(s), Natalie has taken great care of our pup - from meal time, engagement, taking her on walks and keeping routine as best as possible in our absence (including staying in our home to ensure Penny is as comfortable as possible). I couldn’t recommend a more responsible person and dog lover to care for our dog while we can’t be there whether for an afternoon, day or longer time away.”

“I can’t say enough good things about Allison and the exceptional care they provide for my dog! Her passion for animals is truly abundant and shines through in everything she does. Every time I leave my pup in Allison’s care, I know he’s going to be treated like family. She has an incredible way of connecting with pets, making sure they feel loved and safe. Whether it’s playful walks or cuddles in the house, she really does go above and beyond to make all animals in and out of her care happy. I wholeheartedly reccomend Allison if you need someone to watch or walk your dog. Your pet won’t want to leave!”
