About: My fiancé and I have been taking care of our family pets and pet-sitting for neighbors since we were kids! I’ve taken care of all kinds of pets from fish to rodents to cats to corgis to german shepherds and more! Currently, we are in the process of training a service dog and raising our cat mandy. When I was in high school, I also worked at a doggy daycare/boarding facility and learned a lot about pet care there. We are excited to meet and take care of your fur babies! I currently work part time so we are able to take care of your pets whenever they need throughout the day! We have a dog of our own, so they can have a playmate and we have a big yard for them to run around in. At our home, we have a large fenced in yard for pups to play, as well as lots of toys and treats. At your home, we will be sure to follow any and all instructions you provide for taking care of your pet as well as your home!

About: Hello! My name is John Paul (JP) for short. I turned 18 a couple months ago and I’m available for pet sitting! I have been doing pet sitting for about 6 years now and I love it. I’ve had 3 dogs, 2 cats, and over 5 baby parrots I’ve raised on own when I was younger and I like to think I had/have a very good relationship with them. I love all sorts of animals and love getting to spend time and interact with them. We’ll because I’m still in school, I stay at home with my parents but I have 2 cats that I feed, clean litter boxes, and spend time and play with daily. In my clients home I would obviously respect their space and not let the pets in anywhere they cannot go. If they have a fenced backyard and allow it, I would let them out and play with them. If they have a cat I would try my best to just spend time with them and play if they want to!
“Tracey was wonderful! She took care of my 2 dogs and cat. They got exercise, fed, and love during her visits. I would definitely look Tracey again. Thank you so much for watching our babies!”

About: I've been a cat lover since I was a young child. My family has owned cats for 2 decades now. I have experience pet sitting and caring for my own cats, as well cats in my neighborhood. I have experience caring for cats of all ages, from young kittens to elder cats. I'm a full time college student with a flexible schedule. Spending time playing with and caring for your cat is the highlight of my day! I have previous experience caring for cats of all ages, and will ensure proper care of your pet as per instructions.

About: Tail wags guaranteed- I pride myself on providing personalized care and attention to every pet, as if they were my own. I have hands-on experience with a wide range of animals—from playful puppies to senior pets with special needs. I’m comfortable administering medications, handling special diets, and creating calm, comfortable environments for anxious or elderly pets. In addition to basic care, I also offer help with puppy training basics like potty routines, leash manners, and crate comfort. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and communicate openly with pet parents, so you’re always in the loop. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being are my top priority! I am a full time stay at home mom whose kiddos have all started school and am working on filling my time and love for animals while they’re away. They are dropped off early in the morning and picked up in the late afternoon leaving my schedule open for most of the day. I also own a photography business and have occasional clients. However, I can plan around those in advance as I make my own schedule. If you ever want a professional photo of your furry friend- just let me know! :) I have a 3 story, single family home with a fenced in backyard. I also have two of our own furry friends to keep yours company. However, if yours prefers to be alone, no problem! My home is set up with a downstairs apartment allowing your pet the most privacy and security possible. My pets are also crate trained and we are happy to provide that service, as well.

Very trustworthy,friendly,knowlegable about dogs, timely and my Ausky loves her more than me. There are not enough words to explain how much I appreciate Toni. I work shift hours and she is very accomodating and understands when there needs to be changes in the schedule. My dogs tail wags a mile a minute when Toni comes to walk her. Toni sends pics of my dog everytime they walk and Zoey May is smiling in each one. I never knew dogs could smile until now. Thank you so much Toni for being in our lives! Toni is highly recomended.
Kerri is absolutely the best!! We truly hit the jackpot with finding someone we trust and truly cares about our dog. Kerri even sends pictures and updates each visit which are such a joy to receive. Saint (our dog) instantly fell in love with her so you cannot imagine the peace of mind I have knowing my baby is left in such great capable hands. My neighbors have even inquired about her because they see how attentive she is with Saint on their walks. I would not hesitate to recommend her as a pet sitter.
Mikayla has been walking my dog for me while I am recovering from foot surgery. My dog gets excited every time she comes! She’s always on time and even offered to walk her longer when she still hadn’t pooped. I’d recommend her! She seems to really love animals ❤️ thanks Mikayla!
Cassandra is excellent with all dogs! She shows dedication and care each time she visits are pups! From English Creme Retrievers to Coonhounds to Doodles, Cassandra is kind to all! When our Coonhound recently decided she didn’t want to go out to the Run when we are away, Cassandra found a way to coax her and get the job done! Her commitment to helping solve our K-9 conundrum brought us peace so we could enjoy our new grand-baby. Thank you Cassandra :)
