About: I absolutely ❤️ animals and have "always" had pets in my life from the very beginning. I've cared for SO many different animals in my life; such as: dogs, cats, bunnies, turtles, fish, etc. Over my adult years, I've cared for friends and family members pets when needed. 5 years back, I took on the responsibility of caring for grandpa's dog due to his increasing illness. Bottom line, I love animals and want them all to get the love and attention that they want and deserve whether from their parent/parents or from myself in the short amount of time they grace us with in this world. I'm currently a freelancer, so I make my own schedule. Thus, I can move things around to better fit the needs of you and your fur babies if needed. Then, I don't travel much and can be there for those who do. Safety is of the utmost importance to me because it's what I'd want for all my babies, weather it's my 2 legged or my 4 legged child. I'd make sure things that may be harmful are always put up and put aways. Before walking, I'd make sure the area is safe and animals are always leashed up for the entire walk.

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for cats of all personalities—from playful kittens to shy, reserved cats. I’ve boarded cats in my home, done drop-in visits for multi-cat households, and always make sure pet parents feel connected while they’re away. I send regular updates with photos and videos so you’ll never have to wonder how your pets are doing—you’ll see they’re happy, safe, and well cared for. In addition to cats, I also have experience with dogs and even tortoises, so I’m comfortable caring for a wide range of pets. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, or just keeping your pet company, I’m here to give them the attention and love they deserve. Since I work part-time evenings, I have plenty of daytime flexibility for pet care. I enjoy making cat care part of my regular weekly routine. I create a safe, calm environment by keeping areas clean, securing doors and windows, and sticking to the pet’s usual routine so they feel comfortable and cared for.

“Angela did an excellent job taking care of my two cats, one of them requiring two pills per day for his GI lymphoma. She even took care of a perishable delivery which came for me while I was gone. I recommend Angela highly.”

About: Over the past 12 years, I’ve raised and trained two dogs from just 2 weeks old, giving me hands-on experience in early puppy care and training. I’ve also cared for multiple large-breed dogs in a family home, adapting to different temperaments and routines. Beyond personal care, I’ve rescued several dogs off the street and volunteered at animal shelters—experiences that taught me how to handle a wide range of behaviors with patience and compassion. My deep love for animals and real-world experiences is what I live for. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine right now, as I currently don’t have a job and have open availability. I’m fully available any time from Saturday through Sunday, making it easy for me to accommodate last-minute bookings or extended care needs. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I make sure the environment is pet-proofed, calm, and secure—free of hazards and full of love. I follow any instructions closely, from feeding routines to preferred walking routes, and always give pets the attention they need to feel safe and happy. I also take time to build trust with each pet so they feel at ease while their owner is away.

About: Hi, I'm Tisha! I’ve always loved animals! I personally have 3 dogs: Banzo (8), an Australian Shepherd, Nugget (10), an American Eskimo mix, and MJ (12), a chiweenie mix. Also, I have a tabby cat named Tamago and one goldfish, Buey (2). I’ve cared for Banzo since he was a puppy. And I have adopted Nugget since he was about 1 and MJ I adopted more recently as a senior. Tamago our cat found me, and I have helped her even give birth to her 6 kittens. My dogs are all trained from commands to potty training, to even crate training. Growing up I also had a maltipoo who lived to be 18 and a tabby cat who lived to be 14. My favorite thing about my pets is coming home and seeing them and seeing how excited they are to see me. I can ensure that I will take care of your fur baby like one of my own. I'll promise to provide safety, socialization and fun. I love my pets and care for them deeply, they’re like my kids! And I can ensure I will love yours too. Pet care is something I can fit into my schedule as I typically work from home for part of the week and I have flexibility on the weekends. My dogs are friendly and are very well trained they tend to mind their own business. As well my cat tends to do her own thing and isn't afraid of dogs. If need be my dogs are crate trained if there needs to be any separation.

“Nilab is so great! She has watched my cats twice now and is so good at getting them comfortable and out of their shell.

“Dani is wonderful and anyone would be so lucky to have her to watch over your furbaby. Her care for your baby, attention to detail, and overall kindness and ease to work with has made this such a pleasant experience. I’m currently traveling and while this is my first time leaving a review for Dani, this is her 3rd check in while I am away. I have piece of mind because of Dani.”

About: I have helped watch over many cats and kittens for friends and family members for 5+ years. I truly love animals and like to give each cat the attention or space they prefer depending on all their different fun and unique personalities. I am currently working full time, Monday - Friday, but I do not take a lot of vacations and happy to look after those that need someone to look after their beloved pets. I make sure to follow any recommendations or instructions provided, but if allowed I like to make sure the pet is as comfortable as they can be. I usually tend to have my friends pet’s be genuinely happy I’m around, and I am a usual go to when needed.

“MJ took great care of my 2 cats while I was abroad. I received pictures and updates from her daily. If you need care for your pets, MJ would definitely provide love and care to your fur babies.”
