Choosing Kristin to take care of my fur babies was a big success! She’s was nice, kind and attentive to details! For three days of carrying she’s become a friend with all my animals, they seemed happy and playful. She’s always come on time and making a beautiful photos and videos of them for me, it makes my life out of town much better and stress free! I can highly recommend Kristin for your dogs, cats and any other pets, you will be blissful with her service.

About: I’ve had at least 1 dog living with me and my family since I was born, so I grew up helping take care of all our dogs throughout the years. Our current dog is a Pomeranian that acts more human than dog sometimes. I’m a current student at SCAD so classes take up most of my time, but on weekends and nights I am way more available to help out. I love animals so much, whether they be small fluffy little puppies, old yet dignified cats, or even reptilians just vibing in their own little spaces, I never want any animals to be upset or get hurt, so I’ll do whatever I can to make sure your pet receives the best care I can offer.

The best babysitter for my pups! They absolutely loved her. This was my first time ever leaving them or using this app and she made it so easy and gave me peace of mind. She made sure to be extra cautious with my beagles outside so they didn’t escape. You'll get constant updates and cute pics of your pups. You won’t find a better baby sitter!

Sarah did a great job watching our girls. We booked her on short notice, and she catered to my needs when I requested she keep her dogs separate from mine. They had fresh water, a large yard, and automatic water feeder. You couldn’t ask for more. I highly recommend Sarah when booking your pets.

About: I have always been around cats but have enjoyed getting to know dogs for the past 15 years or so. In addition to interacting with my parents' dogs, I have also walked and cared for a number of dogs and cats over the past years for friends, family, and others. This has included pet-sitting (cats and dogs), daily walks (morning-afternoon-evenings and before bed), routine feeding, cleaning cat boxes, medicating with or without food, and providing company and assistance with a dog who was healing from an injury and needing to stay immobilized throughout the day. I am currently working part-time. My schedule allows for morning walks, possibly early afternoon walks, and dog-sitting during week-ends and occasionally during the week as well. I am happy to care for you pet at your home while you are away but am currently unable to have pets in my home. This often seems ideal as it tends to reduce stress since they don't have to adjust to a new location or be alone overnight.

About: My goal is to provide the best care for all furbabies. I love all animals large and small. I currently work in the veterinary field as a vet assistant for almost 3 years and have had pets my whole life. In my eyes pets are family and deserve endless belly rubs and love! I have pets of my own so caring for them is a daily task. I always make time to provide the best care daily for all pets. Going above and beyond is my goal for all. Caring for pets is an everyday job while working in the veterinary field. I can give medications, take pets on walks, and know the important signs to look for if a pet is in distress. I will always make sure your pet is comfortable and safe and take care of them like they are my own.

About: I have lived with a variety of animals my whole life, and began regularly taking care of family and friends' dog and cats when I was 17. I am very attentive to the needs and body language of both dogs and cats, and adapt well to their unique behaviors and routines. I have experience with aloof/aggressive pets, senior pets, and young pets 6 months or older. I only work a couple days a week so I am comfortable with providing constant care to pets who cannot be left alone. I like to operate on a schedule so I am good about keeping up with bathroom breaks, feeding times, medications, etc. I am consistently available to care for your pets Sunday-Wednesday, and may frequently be available Thursday-Saturday as well (I do my best to update my calendar appropriately as far in advance as possible). I will request information about your pet's personality and care requirements prior to meeting with you. I ask that you allow me to meet your pet outside under your supervision before the stay begins, for both mine and your pet's safety and comfort.

With years of hands-on experience caring for both children and dogs, I’ve mastered the art of patience, nurturing, and staying on top of everyone’s needs—furry or not. I understand how important it is to feel confident and comfortable leaving your pet with someone, and I treat every dog in my care like part of the family. Whether it’s playtime in the yard, cozy nap sessions, or sticking to special routines and diets, I’m here to provide a safe, happy, and loving environment while you're away. Let me give your pet a home-away-from-home (or in your home) experience that’s filled with attention, affection, and fun!

Whether you need care during the day or overnight stays, I can ensure your pet is well taken care of, while balancing everything with the care and attention they deserve. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities, whether they’re staying in my home or yours.

About: I’ve been a go-to caretaker of pets for family, friends, and neighbors since a young age. Every animal is an individual with their own unique needs, motivations, things that bring them joy/comfort, and routines that support their wellbeing. I have experience with cats, dogs, rabbits, horses/mules, farm animals, and some parrots. Senior and medically complex pets are some of my favorite critters to care for, and with years of dog and cat rescue under my belt, I’ve provided direct care to some animals in dire situations with confidence. I trust my ability to handle emergencies should they arise and behave in a manner that is in line with modern best practices of care. Additionally I am a sport/working dog handler and very comfortable with high drive breeds like shepherds, collies, and heelers. My daily life is dedicated to the wellbeing of my personal animals. Their enrichment and comfort is an utmost priority. At least once a week I go on outings away from our 6 acre property to get the dogs in new places and work on their training/getting to do fun things (I.e. going to the river, training at big box stores, joining a friend for a meal at a restaurant or park). The dogs are trained several days a week but also allowed time to just be dogs and goof around. Our cats are indoor-outdoor and live full and social lives. Our rabbit is a house rabbit seasonally, meaning she’s outside when the weather is nice, and inside to hang with the cats in the winter. She gets grass time and lots of back porch time where she can be her wild self. I will maintain your pet’s routine to the best of my ability, and they will be cared for to their unique preferences depending on their needs, wants and daily rhythms. Frequent potty breaks or litter box cleanings, access to fresh water in clean bowls, checking bowel movements and keeping up with medications, play time, walks, maybe an outing if possible, and appropriate rest periods to promote balance and wellbeing. Dogs in my care are transported via safety crates (ruffland) to greater ensure safety should we get into an accident, this also prevents issues with any animals that might be escape artists or destructive when left unattended or get bored easily. I travel with first aid materials on hand and work closely with several local veterinary practices who provide varied levels of care, from minor cuts/scrapes, to emergency events.

I can’t thank Jordan enough for stepping in at the last minute to care for my dog, Myla. I had accidentally scheduled the wrong dates with another sitter, but Jordan was quick to respond and saved the day. Her communication was excellent, and she made me feel completely at ease leaving Myla in her care. It’s clear that she genuinely loves animals and is highly dependable. Myla seemed happy and well taken care of when I got home from my trip. She also had my apartment very clean once I made it home. I highly recommend Jordan to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter!”
