About: I have grown up with animals and am an animal lover by nature. I have house sat for several families, having experience with multiple dog homes, cats, and birds. I have provided cared for rambunctious puppies and kittens as well, and I love to meet new furry friends! Currently I am working full-time with the weekends free, and I have pet sit before simultaneously. When I am pet sitting the animals I’m taking care of become my priority and any spare moment I get I dedicate to their well being. I am comfortable leashing and walking dogs, even ones that pull. If I do leave during the day I like to crate the dogs I watch so they have a safe space when I’m gone, and I make sure to keep the floor clear of any hazards that could cause a potential problem.

About: I’ve been responsible for the care of pets most of my life. Pets are family to me. I love getting to know their individual personalities and supporting their needs. My routine varies daily and weekly. Weekends and evening are more open but, depending on the day and mommy schedule, I can sometimes be available during the day on week days. Overnight stays can be available for house-sitting if my 14 pound, male dog, Franklin, can accompany me; he is very friendly and attached to me. I will connect with you one-on-one about your pets individual needs and follow their schedule and routine as you identify me to do. I respect your space and guidelines.

“Taylor did a fabulous house/dog sitting job for us. She sent daily updates along with photos of Dillon. She took the time to brush Dillon a few times too and I loved coming home after vacation to a clean house. I Highly recommend Taylor!”


About: Any time a friend or a neighbor goes out of town or needs help, I'm the first one they call. I love spending time with animals and making sure they are happy, healthy and their needs are met! I love working with all ages. I’ve been around dogs and cats for pretty much my whole life. But I have a love for all animals! I know it can sometimes be hard to leave your furry loved ones with a stranger, but I can promise you I will treat them like my own! They’re in good hands(: I'm currently working a 9-5, but looking for something to keep me busy before and after work! (and weekends when I'm off work as well) I'm very passionate about working with animals I’m super flexible with everything so if you have any concerns, reach out to me and I’m sure we can figure it out! I have two friendly cats who love to play and get along with all animals! They also don't mind hanging out in the basement if need be. I've got a large area indoors and outdoors to keep your pet busy or they can relax on the couch!

About: I have loved and taken care of dogs for years. I am a Dog lover for sure. I have dog sat for family members many times. Retired so I have all day to care for your pets. I am here to give potty breaks as needed and lots and lots of attention. I have a fenced in yard. I have two small dogs that love to play. I live in a small neighborhood with no traffic or noise.

About: I offer comprehensive pet care services backed by a lifetime of experience with diverse animals, from small rodents to large breeds like my Irish wolfhound. Having had cats since I was 10, I'm skilled in managing multiple pets, including reptiles like my tortoise and various birds. I'm comfortable walking dogs of all sizes and have a proven record of reliable pet-sitting, ensuring their animals are well-fed, cared for, and happy. As a pet sitter with a weekday job from 6:30 AM to 2:30 PM, I ensure your pets are well-cared for by providing a morning visit before work for feeding, fresh water, and a quick walk or playtime. During my workday, I can arrange a midday visit. After work, I dedicate my time to your pets, offering walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of cuddles. Weekends are fully devoted to providing extra care, including longer walks, park visits, and any specific grooming or playtime activities your pets enjoy. When caring for pets in a client's home, safety, trust, and a comfortable environment are my top priorities. I begin by thoroughly understanding each pet's specific needs, routines, and any medical conditions. I ensure the home is pet-proofed and free of hazards, and I strictly adhere to the owner's instructions regarding feeding, medication, and exercise. Building trust involves gentle interactions, consistent routines, and positive reinforcement. For overnight stays, I maintain a calm and secure atmosphere, respecting the pet's usual sleeping arrangements and providing companionship. During dog walks, I use a secure leash, remain vigilant of the surroundings, and follow the owner's preferred walking routes and commands, always prioritizing the pets safety and well-being.

About: I have more than 7 years experience with caring for dogs. I own two dogs currently and love K9 companionship. Looking forward to helping those with busy lifestyles to care for their pets. I currently work part-time so I have plenty of time to fit walks and dog care into my schedule around the local area. Very flexible on days, times, and services. If you do not see a service listed in my profile please inquire. I realized a while ago that working an 8 hour shift many times meant having my dogs in their cages for 8 hours a day. This doesn’t sit well with me and I know others feel the same way. This is one of the biggest reasons I decided to offer these services. Worrying about your dog/s while working a full time shift can be worrisome. My services can help alleviate your worries and make you feel more at ease that your fur family members are taken care of. My daily walks and care for my own two dogs has provided me with the experience to care for yours. I currently work part-time and have plenty of available time to take care of your pets. I am available weekdays, weekdays, and some holidays. Contact me for specific dates. The safety of your pet/s is my utmost priority. All safety and care instructions will be discussed and agreed upon during our initial meet and greet. I will communicate each visits results based on your preferences.

Anthony M.

“Tony is a great human who happens to also be an amazing animal sitter. Tony is caring and kind and takes time to understand each animal. My daughter worked on a farm for a few years, and Tony would drive her to and from work and within a month, he knew all the names of the farm animals. The animals loved him and started to recognize his vehicle upon arrival - it was funny because the horses would run up to greet him with snorts and jumps. My animals love having Tony and show it by their genuine excitement and affection when they see him. No matter the animal, you’re in good hands with Tony!”
