About: Caring for animals isn’t just something I do, it’s who I am. Growing up on a farm has taught me to love any and all animals, regardless of age or size! I have experience many animals, from senior dogs, to blind horses, and bottle feeding kittens! I have experience with energetic puppies, highly trained dogs that need consistency, and senior dogs who need extra attention. I fully understand the level of care, dedication and love all animals need and deserve. I would love to grow more furry friendships through your fur babies! I am currently not working, and am very open to any schedules! Sundays are my busiest day of the week, so feel free to shoot me a message and we can get something arranged! :) I care for your animals in your home, so they are able to remain in a familiar and comfortable environment. I will follow you & your pets routine closely, and provide attention, exercise, and affection! Safety is always my biggest priority, so please share any concerns so I am able to plan accordingly to provide the best care possible for your furry friends. I can ensure doors/gates will be secure, along with monitoring your pet closely and keeping a close line of communication. With my background of caring for multiple rescue animals with different needs, I fully understand the importance of keeping your pet safe, and comfortable. I’m patient, attentive, and love all animals as if they were my own!

About: I have cared for and loved pets of all kinds all of my life. Cats, dogs, goats, rabbits, lizards and a bird. I am responsible and respectful. With age comes dependability and maturity. Plus, animals love me. I'm retired so everyday is a Saturday. I travel in a converted Sprinter van, but only a few times a year. I'm available unless already booked. I'll be happy to take care of your dog in your home and walk them in/around your neighborhood. Do they like dog parks? That can be arranged, too.

“Victoria was a pleasure to work with - I needed dog walking due to some back issues so I actually met her at the house most times. She was punctual, professional, followed my bossy requests and loving to my dog. I highly recommend her.”

Judy D.

“Briana is amazing! She’s great with my dog and I can tell she really cares. She’s super easy to communicate with and makes sure your dog gets everything they need!”

About: Hello Families! My name is Aaliyah, and I’m a 20-year-old community college student with a genuine passion for caring for children and animals. I’m transitioning from working in hospital housekeeping into providing reliable, compassionate in-home care for babies, children, dogs, and cats. I have experience caring for a variety of dogs, from playful puppies to larger breeds, including pit bulls. I’ve also provided dog-sitting services for neighbors while they were traveling, making sure their pets received plenty of attention, care, exercise, and companionship while their families were away. In addition to pet care, I have hands-on infant-care experience from caring for my nephew since birth. I have been heavily involved in his daily care, including feeding, diaper changes, soothing, keeping him on a routine, and providing constant supervision. Caring for him has helped me develop patience, attentiveness, and a strong understanding of the responsibility that comes with caring for an infant. I also want to be completely transparent with families that I have a 2-year-old toddler who would accompany me during overnight sits. He is calm, well-behaved, and very easygoing. He has his own routine and would not interfere with the care I provide to your children or pets. I would always make sure your family members, pets, home, and routines receive my full attention and respect. My goal is to give families peace of mind by treating their children and pets with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust in your home and with the people and animals you love most. I am available 7 days a week, from mornings through overnight care, and I’m happy to work with families who need flexible scheduling. If you’re looking for someone dependable, caring, patient, and attentive, I would love the opportunity to meet your family and discuss how I can help! Warm regards, Aaliyah I am currently looking for a job in the sitting community. I am available upon request. As well as being flexible to fit what’s best. Your fur babies will love my neighborhood. Every corner you’ll see someone with their own. If you animals don’t like others that’s okay because they’re welcome in my house as if they’re my own!

About: I have taken care of my friends and families dogs for years and I genuinely love being active and would love to help you with your pups! I am able to walk and take care of your fur babies daily and weekly. I have an 8 year old son who enjoys being active too. I will give your pets lots of walks on the greenway and cuddle them at night. Provide me with details and we will make sure they are cared for.

“She does so well with my puppy!! She’s always on time and communicates with me as well! I’m ready to add my other dog to be honest ! She’s awesome hands down!”

About: 💗 Experienced, Compassionate Pet Care From Someone Who Truly Understands Animals 💗 Hi! My name is Lindsay, and caring for animals has been a huge part of my life for over 9 years. What started as something I naturally loved doing for family, friends, neighbors, and their pets has grown into my full-time passion and business, Pawley’s Pet Services. I’m currently continuing my education and training to become a dog trainer and intuitive animal counselor, which has given me an even deeper interest in understanding animals not just physically, but emotionally and behaviorally as well. I love taking the time to learn who each pet truly is — their personality, communication style, routines, fears, favorite activities, and what makes them feel safe and comfortable. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities, including energetic puppies, large dogs, senior pets, shy or anxious animals, rescue pets, and multi-pet households. 🐶 Puppies & Young Dogs I understand how much attention and consistency puppies need. I’m happy to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, enrichment, exercise, feeding according to schedule, and plenty of one-on-one attention while helping maintain their normal routine. 🐕 Senior Dogs Senior pets deserve patience, gentleness, and extra understanding. I’m comfortable adapting walks and activities to their energy levels, providing companionship, following medication instructions when needed, and making sure they remain comfortable and cared for. 🐱 Cats & Kittens I absolutely love cats, too! I’m comfortable caring for kittens, senior cats, shy cats, independent cats, and cats who need medication or additional attention. Whether your cat wants interactive play, enrichment, cuddles, or simply someone nearby for quiet companionship, I’m happy to meet them where they are. 🐾 Large & Multiple Pets I’m very comfortable with larger dogs and have personally had experience caring for multiple large dogs at once. I’m also experienced with multi-pet households and understand the importance of giving each animal individual attention while keeping everyone’s routines consistent. 💊 Medication & Special Care I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and administering oral medications to dogs and cats when needed. I understand that some pets require additional patience, monitoring, or specialized routines, and I’m happy to discuss their individual needs during a meet & greet. My experience includes: • Dog walking and exercise • Drop-in visits • Overnight/in-home pet sitting • Puppy and senior pet care • Cat and kitten care • Oral medication administration • Feeding and medication schedules • Potty breaks and enrichment • Caring for multiple pets • Large and energetic dogs • Shy, anxious, and rescue animals • Maintaining pets’ normal routines • Frequent photo and video updates One of the most important parts of my care is getting to know each animal as an individual. I don’t believe there is one perfect approach to every pet. Some animals want constant play and attention, while others need space, patience, and time to warm up. I pay close attention to their body language and behavior so I can meet them where they are. My training in dog behavior and intuitive animal counseling is something I’m especially passionate about because I want to understand the why behind an animal’s behavior rather than simply reacting to it. I’m always learning more about canine behavior, communication, enrichment, and the emotional needs of animals so I can continue providing better care. 📸 You’ll Never Have to Wonder How Your Pets Are Doing I send regular photo and video updates throughout my visits and stays. I know how difficult it can be to leave your pets behind, and I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing they’re safe, happy, loved, and receiving plenty of attention. When I’m caring for pets in your home, I also treat your space with respect. I’m happy to follow household routines and instructions, bring in mail or packages, water plants, and help make sure everything is secure while you’re away. My goal isn’t simply to be the person who feeds your pets while you’re gone. I want to become someone your pets recognize, trust, and genuinely enjoy seeing — and someone you feel comfortable calling whenever you need dependable care. I would love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family members and learn what makes them special. 💗 Pet care is more than just a job to me—it’s something I’m genuinely passionate about and dedicate my time to every day. I run my own pet-care business, so caring for animals is a major part of my daily routine. I’m currently building my experience while studying to become a dog trainer and intuitive animal counselor, and I love being able to apply what I’m learning to the pets I care for. My schedule is flexible and I’m often able to accommodate walks, drop-ins, and overnight/in-home care depending on my existing bookings. I do keep a limited number of bookings at a time so that I can give each pet the individual attention they deserve rather than overbooking myself. I’m especially interested in building long-term relationships with families who need recurring walks, drop-ins, or regular pet care. I’m happy to discuss availability in advance and work with each family to find a routine that works well for both them and their pets. I provide attentive, personalized care based on each pet’s individual routine, personality, and needs. My goal is to make pets feel safe, comfortable, understood, and loved while their families are away. For dogs, this can include walks, potty breaks, exercise, enrichment, playtime, feeding according to their schedule, fresh water, and plenty of one-on-one attention. For cats, I provide feeding, fresh water, litter box care, medication when needed, playtime, enrichment, or quiet companionship depending on their personality. I’m currently studying to become a dog trainer and intuitive animal counselor, so I pay close attention to animal behavior and body language. I believe understanding why an animal is behaving a certain way is an important part of providing good care. I’m patient with shy, nervous, anxious, energetic, senior, and rescue animals and always allow them to adjust at their own pace. A Note About Meet & Greets and Overnight Stays: For safety reasons, my fiancé, Bradley, normally accompanies me to my meet & greets and stays with me for every overnight pet-sitting booking. This is an important part of my personal safety policy when I’m staying in a client’s home while they’re away. I want to be completely transparent about this upfront so every family knows who may be present in their home. Bradley is my fiancé and safety companion, while I remain the primary person responsible for your pets and their care. I’m always happy to discuss this with you before booking and make sure everyone is comfortable with the arrangement. When caring for pets in their own home, I follow their established routines and respect their space and belongings. I’m also happy to follow household instructions, bring in mail or packages, water plants, and help keep the home secure while you’re away. I send regular photo and video updates so you can see how your pets are doing and feel confident that they’re receiving the care and attention they deserve. I want your pets to feel comfortable and cared for in their own home while giving you peace of mind that they’re in loving, attentive hands.

“A true blessing! She works so well with our pup and takes wonderful care of him. She is great at communicating and quick to respond. Couldn’t recommend her any more!”

About: I've been pet sitting since I was 15, caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. From energetic puppies to gentle seniors, I provide attentive and loving care tailored to each pet’s needs. I also have a soft spot for cats! Recently, I helped raise two puppies--a Great Pyrenees and a Golden Retriever--gaining hands-on experience with training, socialization, and all the patience that comes with it. I am well-versed in puppy nipping and over-tiredness. Whether your pet needs playtime, cuddles, or extra care, I’m here to make them feel safe and happy! As a college student, my schedule is flexible--I’m usually done with classes by mid-day, so I’m only away for a few hours at most. This gives me plenty of time to dedicate to pet care, whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping your pet company. I also have a Golden Retriever of my own, so I understand the time, attention, and love pets need. I’m generally available any time and can easily adapt to your pet’s routine to ensure they feel comfortable and cared for! I prioritize safety and comfort for every pet in my care. At my home, I have a small fenced-in yard for secure playtime, plus access to a larger open area for supervised exercise. I’m also just a two minute walk from a spacious, fenced-in dog park—which is perfect for dogs who love to run and socialize! My neighborhood has wide sidewalks, making it ideal for safe and enjoyable walks. For pets staying with me, they’ll also have the company of my friendly Golden Retriever, who loves making new friends. If your pet prefers their own space, I can easily accommodate that as well. My Golden is crate-trained, so I’m comfortable with crating if needed.
