“Samantha was very personable and trustworthy. She arrived promptly at our requested feeding times and took care of our two cats. She is definitely an animal lover and we would highly recommend her and book her services again in the future.”

“I'm very pleased with Tori. She cared for my two dogs for a couple of days. I found her to be very responsible, communicative on-time and loving towards my fir babies. My doggies were in good hands and I highly recommend her services.”

About: I’ve had dogs of my own my entire life, so caring for pets has always been second nature to me. Along with personal experience, I’ve worked in professional doggy boarding centers where I learned how to handle dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I’m also certified in dog walking and pet sitting, which means I bring both knowledge and safety awareness to every visit. My mix of hands-on experience, professional training, and genuine love for animals sets me apart—I treat every pet as if they were my own Along with taking care of my own dog everyday, I own and run my own start up dog walking/pet sitting business called Kat's Pack LLC. I am fully certified and insured. For my dog, I take my dog 4-5 times a day on walks, make sure he'd fed, mentally stimulated through play time and enrichment activities and gets all the love and attention he deserves. I bring all the care that I provide my dog with to every clients' pet that I take care of. Knowing that my dog is not friendly with other dogs due to his past history before he was rescued, I ensure that there is clear communication and boundaries while out in public with him. I make sure he feels safe in every environment and is well trained to avoid potential conflict due to his lack of socialization skills. At home, he is free to roam the house as long as someone is home. He is crated when home alone, due to separation anxiety. I am always finding new ways to add to his enrichment via new toys or stimulating activities. I make sure he is always loved and cared for. With clients pets, I ensure that there is full communication between the pet parent and I about each of the pets needs. I am skilled and happy to provide care for all cats and dogs, including pets that need more love, attention, or have more specific needs then your average pet, (older age, medication needs, less socialization skills, etc.) I treat every pet as if they were my own!
About: I grew up with pitbulls and have always loved animals. I have experience with all size dog breeds and ages (puppy’s and seniors). I’ve had years of watching dogs and cats as well as some farm work. I am currently a private nanny with a schedule that has lots of mobility. Between my time caring for the family I work for I provide pet care. I have experience spending over nights in others homes, transporting pets and providing necessary medication. I take my time to be gentle and make sure the pets I care for are trusting of me.
About: 4 years of experience working at a veterinarian office and lifetime pet owner with no current pets. Let me care for your pet like I cared for mine. Work from home, single adult with no children or pets(yet🤣) able to walk local with lots of parks and trails if longer walks are desired. Two level condominium so stairs are required unless smaller and I can pick up to go out, able to give medications, baths, nails and lots and lots of love.
About: I'm currently volunteering at Whiskers Cat Rescue cleaning cages and socializing cats. I am comfortable administering medications to cats. I have owned a small dog in the past. My current cats are a wobbly boy with Cerebellar Hypoplasia and a super senior (21yrs!) old lady cat. My schedule is really flexible right now. I'm not free a few times through the week and weekend but for no longer than a few hours. I'm very patient with animals, especially more skittish ones. You need to work with them even if it takes time to develop a relationship or trust.
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life, growing up with both dogs and cats, which gave me a deep love and understanding of their needs. For the past two years, I’ve been pet sitting for clients, providing personalized care based on their preferences. I have experience with a variety of animals, including birds, kittens, puppies, dogs, and cats, and I’m comfortable administering medications when needed. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or ensuring pets stay on their routine, I’m passionate about giving them the best care possible! As a full-time student with classes spread throughout the week and a part-time job, I balance my schedule to ensure I can provide attentive and reliable pet care. My flexible routine allows me to accommodate pet-sitting needs, whether it’s daily check-ins, walks, or overnight stays. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so I make sure to prioritize their well-being while managing my academic and work responsibilities. I exclusively provide pet care services in my clients’ homes to ensure the best experience for their pets and mine. By caring for pets in their own home, I help maintain their routine and comfort, making the transition easier for them while their owners are away.
About: I’ve taken care of many cats and dogs from when I was a young child. We rescued a few stray cats and dogs who grew to become our beloved family pets. I’m an administrative professional who during the week works 40 hours in the medical industry and would enjoy caring for your pets in their familiar surroundings. This additional line of work helps support my child’s secondary education, and satisfies my love in caring for animals. I look forward to meeting your feline and/or canine family members and care for them at their dwelling. It’s traumatizing enough missing their owners who need to travel, being placed in an unfamiliar location can disrupt their routine and cause unnecessary stress. Thank you for your consideration. I’M ONLY AVAILABLE ON THE WEEKENDS; FRIDAY EVENINGS TO EARLY MONDAY MORNINGS. Due to my primary job, I’m only able to assist on the weekends. I will feed, pet, play, massage, brush, and interact with your pet as if it were my own. Pets deserve quality care for their unconditional love. A few things I adhere to is avoiding all dog parks. Canines may behave differently when their owners are away and I don’t want any pet to get injured. I prefer to stay on the owners property to keep everyone safe.

About: Growing up, I had a Lab and then a Boxer and two cats. I've also helped my aunt at the doggie daycare she runs out of her home where she often has more than 10 dogs at a time. Everything from a Great Pyrenees to German Shepherds to Doodles to Yorkies. And it's always so much fun! The care I'll give your pets will really depend on them and their needs. There's a very large unfenced grass area behind my apartment building that would be perfect for walks or play. And there are multiple parks in the area too we could explore. At yours, I'd keep whatever their normal routine is. Whether that's taking walks, throwing the ball or just sitting and chilling and scratching butts. Their butts of course!

“Karin was terrific with our two dogs! It was their first time staying home alone while our family was out of town for a couple of days, and Karin’s kindness, attention to detail, and conscientiousness made it all possible.”

About: I've had cats my entire life, I pet sit for 2 dogs during the summer before I could get a job and would love for it to become a regular part of my life again. I enjoy spending time with animals sometimes more than people. I'm a college student and a caregiver currently so feel free to reach out with questions about availability. I have a constantly changing schedule and I may be available more than what's marked here. I take care of my own 2 cats daily, and I'd love to take care of more pets in between my work hours or on my days off. I've been in an environment with animals as long as I can remember feeding them, scooping litter boxes, and my favorites giving love, and playing.
