About: I’ve been around animals ever since I was born and I’ve loved them since I met them! I’ve been walking and caring for neighbors, friends, and family’s animals since I was about eight. I’m a student currently, studying biology with an interest in animal behavior. I love animals of all kinds and I would be more than happy to spend time with your fur baby! I’m currently a student at PCC but besides that my schedule is extremely flexible! My classes are about an hour and a half on the week days only. I will do anything you see fit to protect your home and your pets. If I’m there for the day only, I will clean up any toys or messes, feed your pets if you would like me to, give medication if it’s needed, exercise your pets, and lock up when I leave. If I’m there overnight, I will strip the bed I’ve slept in, feed your pets, clean up any messes I’ve made or the animals have made, give medication if it’s needed, spend time with your fur babies, exercise your pets, and lock up overnight and when I leave.
“Excellent response time, service, and care. Ann bonded with my pet in no time and took great care of Cosette and my home! Top tier professional~”
“Damita really helped us out because right after we left on vacation our power went out. Then our flight home was delayed and Damita quickly agreed to add another visit to our booking to care for our dog. She continuously updated us and asked how she could be of more help. We’re really impressed with her kindness and how she went to extra mile for us. Thanks Damita!”
About: A highly organized and reliable pet sitter with a passion for animal care. I will love and care for your fur babies as much as you do. I am recently unemployed. This has allowed me increased flexibility in my schedule to care for animals including overnight house sitting, home visits and exercise. I am able to care for your pets in your home (overnight or scheduled visits) while meeting any special feeding, exercise, and temperament requirement you have.
“Margaret was very sweet! Came home to my cat being happy. She would send me details on what occurred during her visit and lots of pictures of my cat which I appreciated it!”
“Susan was great! She was very communicative and kept us informed with how our cats were doing, sending pictures, videos, and text updates. She was even nice enough to clean up when one of our cats made a mess. We are 100% planning to ask her to pet sit next time too.”
“Shannon has always been a great sitter and when we had an emergency that delayed our return she was very flexible and made sure our cats were well taken care of. Highly recommend her as a sitter.”
About: I have lived with pets my whole life and consider them family. I love to meet new animals, and believe our family is perfect to host beloved pets like they are our own. I work part time as a Social Worker, and am able to manage my own schedule to accommodate pet care as needed and am flexible. I have a fenced in, large yard for potty breaks and play as needed. I have a 10 year old puggle who loves everyone he meets!
“Marianne was amazing as always. Super communicative, quick responses, and always makes me feel better about having to leave my cats for a few days knowing they’re getting great care!”
“Sequoia came by a few days in a row to feed our dog Mabel, as I had to work late, and it was so appreciated! Sequoia understands Mabel's needs, is very aware of her sensitive stomach and makes sure Mabel is happy & taken care of whenever she comes over to help out. Thank you, as always!”
“Kathy went above and beyond to care for Saydee. We’re so grateful and 100% would recommend Kathy to anyone looking for attentive care for their pet. Saydee enjoyed a very comfortable stay at her house and we were worry-free knowing that she was really well looked after.”
About: I’ve had my own dogs over the last 10 years. I am a mom to two human kiddos and one golden retriever, Suzi. I’m happy to walk, check in and play, and care for your pets! I take care of my own pets every day. They are my family and spoiled! I’m able to have a flexible schedule as I stay home to take care of my family. I care for all animals and with love and appreciation. If there are specific instructions to follow I’m happy to do that. Safety is of the utmost importance to me.
About: I have taken care of cats and dogs from ages 4 months to 12 years! I like to learn each animals needs and modify my care for them! I work three days a week and keep an open schedule to care for others’ animals the other four days in the week! I have a flexible schedule and can even help on the days I am scheduled at my main job! I always ask for your preferences for your animals! Whether this includes walk length, treats and food, and even mannerisms, I always want to make sure YOU and your animals are comfortable!
About: I grew up in an family with lots of animals over the years - we always had dogs, but also everything from guinea pigs to a pygmy goat! As such, I've always adored animals and they seem to be able to tell, and feel set at ease by my gentle nature. Currently I'm working part-time as a dog bather and gradually adding more pet care into my schedule. I'm available Thursday, Friday, and Saturday after 3 pm. Allowing someone else to care for your furry friends requires trust - I'm highly conscientious in others' homes and will be respectful of your space. I will also pay close attention to any instructions you leave me.
About: I’ve grown up around animals and have had two dogs of my own, so I understand the care, patience, and attention pets need. I’ve also spent several years dog sitting, cat sitting, and house sitting for friends, family, and neighbors. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, cleaning up after pets, giving lots of attention, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m dependable, communicative, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals of all personalities and energy levels. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have experience caring for pets consistently and responsibly. I’m flexible with my schedule during the summer and can plan my day around feeding times, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and check-ins to make sure pets get the attention and care they need. I also make communication with owners a priority and enjoy sending updates and photos so they feel comfortable while away. I always focus on creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for pets, whether I’m caring for them in my home or in a client’s home. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, walking routines, and any special care requests. I pay close attention to pets’ behavior and comfort levels to help them feel secure and stress-free. I also keep spaces clean, make sure doors and gates are secure, and treat every home and pet with respect and care.

Taylor dropped in on my 13 year old terrier-chihuahua mix twice a day for 2 days (4 visits). He absolutely loved her immediately and she really seemed to understand his personality right off the bat. I liked having pics and reports of how he was doing because it had been a couple of years since I’ve had to be away from him for an extended period. I highly recommend Taylor for dog or cat care and will definitely request her again.
Jessica is amazing! She's been so patient with my 1yo stranger danger issues and so kind to my old boy who needs a little extra help here and there. She's also been very communicative on any questions or concerns, and has not once come across as annoyed at my near daily texts while I'm adjusting to have someone care for my pets. I hope to keep her around for a while.
Sydney is the best! She has been working with our new puppy Pop, doing drop-in visits for us during the day when we are working. She goes above and beyond with him, and has even started teaching him basic commands like sit. She is punctual, responsible, trustworthy and knowledgeable about pups of all ages. We are so glad we found her, and would highly recommend her!
Thomas was amazing with Lovie. Every time I leave town, I usually come home to a chewed-up dog bed and signs of stress, but not this time. Thomas provided the consistency in her routine that she really needs to stay calm and happy. He asked thoughtful questions and took careful notes on all the little things that make a difference. I also really appreciated the check-in updates and photos from each visit, it gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I will absolutely be reaching out to Thomas for future trips. Highly recommend!
Jenna was amazing watching our two senior pups while we were out of town! She was consistently on time for the drop-ins, took them on walks and gave them lots of love, and sent us plenty of photos and updates, which we loved. We came back to a clean home and happy dogs. We'll definitely be asking her to come back again!
