“Jen was the best!! She provided outstanding care for our cat. She kept all appointments on time. Kept us informed how our cat was doing, sent lots of pictures and text updates. She spent extra time playing with our cat. When we got home, we were met by a very happy kitty!!! She is usually mad at us for a few hours, but not this time!! Returning after 7 days, it was like we never left!!! I would recommend Jen anytime!!! All ready have her booked for our next trip!”

About: I’m a former veterinary technician, have cared for a wide range of animals since I was a kid. I know some first aid and have experience with basic grooming(bathing, brushing, nail trimming). Your furry friend will be well cared for when under my care. Currently a stay at home mom, just taking care of my baby and my own animals so have lots of extra time to help care for your dog! I treat every pet as I would treat my own animals. They are like family and will be loved on and cared for during our time together.

“Page was an absolute pleasure to work with! She was punctual, professional, and truly wonderful with my dog Maple. Her care and attention made all the difference—Maple adores her! Highly recommend Page for anyone seeking a terrific pet sitter!”

“Kelly is the most amazing person and pet sitter! We immediately felt at ease when we met her and knew she was going to fabulous. She is a pet lover as we are. She took care of our pup better than any pet sitter we have ever had. We had not a care in the world leaving our precious dog in her care. She provided updates and special pictures with every drop in visit. Most of all she treated our dog with love and made her 5 days without us very special. Thank you Kelly! We will be requesting you for our next trip! Love, The Halter Family”

About: I have been providing animal care since I was 12 years old anywhere from dog walking to pet sitting. I have 3 years experience as a vet tech and currently I am a second year vet student. I love all animals, dogs, cats, and even exotics. I have volunteered for a training facility and I am willing to work with dogs that may need more love and patience. I am willing to provide long walks for those go-getter dogs or short walks for those who prefer the calmer side of life. I’m currently in school and I am available in the evening 6 days a week. I am available for dog walks, or drop in visits for potty breaks or play dates! I have experience with dogs of all different temperaments and strive to create a warm and safe environment for all your fur babies! I will enter homes calmly and allow pets to get comfortable with me before proceeding. I will spend time loving and getting to know your pet.

About: Hi! My name is Ronnie, and jointly with my spouse who has also been in the field, we have boarded & hosted daycare in our home. We just moved and would like to start building our clientele even further. We are both very experienced in pet sitting. For the past six years, I have dedicated my life to the care and well-being of dogs and cats at every stage of life from fragile newborns to cherished seniors. My experience spans both general veterinary practice and high-volume shelter environments, giving me a deep understanding of medical, behavioral, and emotional needs. In a general practice setting, I have provided hands-on support to veterinarians, ensuring that patients receive thorough exams, treatments, and follow-up care. In the shelter field, I have assisted in managing the care of animals arriving from diverse and often challenging backgrounds, including those who have been neglected, abandoned, or are fearful of human interaction. My surgical experience includes working alongside doctors to assist with 25+ surgeries a day, maintaining a fast-paced, highly organized workflow while ensuring each animal’s safety, comfort, and recovery needs are met. I am skilled in pre- and post-operative care, monitoring anesthesia, and providing gentle handling during moments of stress or vulnerability. Whether bottle-feeding orphaned kittens, offering enrichment for long-term residents, or patiently building trust with animals showing signs of fear, reactivity, or aggression, I always approach my work with empathy and respect for the individual needs of each animal. I pride myself on being both loving and attentive, noticing subtle changes in behavior or appetite that may indicate a need for intervention. I have worked extensively with dogs that display escape behaviors or aggression, applying patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement to help them feel secure. Every animal in my care is treated as if they were my own, and I believe that compassion, trust, and understanding are the foundation for helping them thrive, whether they’re still learning the ropes or enjoying their golden years. I maintain a flexible schedule and am committed to being available whenever I am needed to provide the highest standard of care. Meet & greets may vary depending on availability on whether or not I am currently hosting. When caring for pets in my home, I create a safe, comfortable, and enriching environment tailored to each animal’s needs. This includes maintaining a consistent feeding schedule, providing plenty of fresh water, regular potty breaks, daily exercise, playtime, and mental stimulation. I ensure they have cozy, clean spaces for rest and always supervise interactions to keep them safe and happy. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their specific instructions closely to maintain the animal’s normal routine, reducing stress and keeping them comfortable in their familiar surroundings. This may include feeding, walking, litter box cleaning, administering medication, grooming, and offering companionship. I also provide updates, photos, and videos so clients have peace of mind while they’re away. Additionally, I only house one family at a time as a prevention to any potential fights that can breakout. Multiple pets from the same household are welcome, and I do house cats as well. Please keep in mind with cats, they do take some time to warm up to new surroundings and can potentially be stressed during the first couple of days.

“Bridget took care of our cat like he was her own. She spent time playing with him each day, and sent photo updates after feeding him. She also went above and beyond by taking the scooped litter out of our house to dispose of, ensuring it wouldn't smell while we were away. Our boy was very happy and healthy when we returned home!”

“Victoria was reliable and wonderfully friendly. It was great leaving town and being confident that our dog and cat were in trustworthy hands!”

About: Ever since I was young, I’ve taken care of my family’s chickens, snakes, and dogs. My neighbors also had dogs, horses, and many other animals that I’ve petsit. I loved dogs so much that I walked my neighbors dogs for free since it would be good exercise for me and for the dogs themselves. Whether cuddling or playing and even doing the dirty work like cleaning up poop or throw up, I will love your dogs like I love my own. If you’re booking me for house sitting, I will walk your dog free of charge. :) I have dog walking in the morning and tend to go to the gym at night for a few hours or a date night once in awhile, I won’t be away from your pet for more than 4-6 hours according to your wishes! To make sure our furry friends are safe, healthy, and happy I would love to have a meet n greet with the owner and their pet to go over their feedings and routine before a booking. Just like I did with my dog, I’ll give your dog my constant care and attention, giving them ample affection. For dogs I’ve taken care of at my neighbors house or my clients house, I respect whether or not they’re allowed on the couches or the bed. If they want to play I could spend hours playing with them, of course stopping when I see them becoming tired or overheated. I would also like to call myself a part time maid since I like to leave the house cleaner than I found it. I love going on walks or runs with dogs to release their energy and I’m careful to avoid other dogs if they tend to be reactive.

About: Hi my name is Ayla! I have had many pets growing up and I still do have pets. I have fed, walked, and bathed my dogs as well as administering occasional medication in pill form. I currently have an 11 month plot hound puppy and I am in the process of training him. I feed, water, walk, and bathe him as well. I am also diligent in cleaning up after myself and after pets. I am currently working part time so I have plenty of time of time to care and play with your pups! I am available Tuesday-Friday every week. I am familiar with crate training and I handle issues with tenderness and care. I understand when to back up and provide space if a dog feels threatened or upset. All in all, I am very loving and caring to all animals.

About: My pups and I are happy, healthy, fit, and fun - we walk, run, or hike daily, and would love to take others out with us too. At the moment I am working 4/7 days so can only offer weekend boarding, or friendly pups for long term boarding with the understanding that on work days the dogs have the house and the yard and each other for company, but no direct supervision during work hours. My days off (fri-sun) are all about the animals! Your pups will be treated as if they were my own. They will have company, comfort, and as much or as little exercise as required.

“Tori was amazing for a last minute trip out of town for our doggo! She was quick to reply and worked with us to make sure Stinky was taken care of. Highly recommend! Thank you again so much!”

About: Dogs, Cats & Chaos — I’ve Got This! As a stay-at-home mom of 4, my house is always full of love, laughter… and the occasional tennis ball flying past! 🐾 We share our home with two sweet Dalmatians and friendly cats, and over the years I’ve rescued, fostered, and cared for more animals than I can count. My kids are little animal whisperers — they know when it’s time to play and when it’s time to give pets their space (especially during mealtime!). Whether it’s snuggles on the couch, backyard zoomies, or a calm, quiet spot for a nap, your fur baby will feel right at home here. There’s always someone home to keep your pup company — and if I can’t do a drop-off or pick-up, my Husband can step in to help. Your fur baby will never be left alone and will be treated like part of our family from the moment they arrive. I send one cute photo update per day so you know your pup is happy without interrupting your trip — but you’re always welcome to reach out anytime for extra updates. Safety, Trust & Comfort – Guaranteed Your pup’s safety and happiness come first here. We have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play, plus frequent potty breaks and exercise throughout the day. Whether your dog is kennel-trained or prefers free roam, we welcome them and make sure they feel comfortable. Need medication given? No problem — I’m happy to handle that at no extra charge. I’m also flexible with drop-off and pick-up times (within reason) to make your travel plans stress-free. As for meet & greets… let’s just say I’m flexible, but not a huge fan because it’s always a little chaotic for me — I believe your pup will tell us everything we need to know once they’re here! 🐾

“Melissa was wonderful! She kept us updated and took great care of all of our doggies. One of our elderly dogs had an unexpected health issue while we were out of town and Melissa went above and beyond what we expected to care for him. We can tell that she genuinely cared for our doggies. I would absolutely recommend her.”

“Karman was awesome! Super communicative, sent great pictures and gave detailed updates! Highly recommend!”

About: Over the past 20 years, I have cared for four dogs and currently share my home with two wonderful dogs. In addition, I have five cats—three of my own and two belonging to my son. I actively volunteer with Labradors and Friends Dog Rescue, where I serve as an Adoption Coordinator. My responsibilities include coordinating adoption efforts, assisting with dog walking, and supporting adoption events. As a retiree, I have the flexibility and availability to provide dedicated care for your pet’s needs. I have a deep love for animals and bring a compassionate, attentive approach to every interaction. Caring for animals is not just a service—it's a personal passion. Pet safety is my top priority when caring for animals in their home. I follow the owner’s specific instructions closely, maintain a secure environment by ensuring doors, gates, and windows are properly closed, and keep pets away from potential hazards such as toxic foods, household cleaners, and unsafe outdoor areas. I monitor pets closely for any signs of distress or illness and will always communicate promptly with the owner about any concerns. I also respect the routines and comfort zones of each pet to minimize stress and ensure they feel safe and cared for in their familiar surroundings.

About: I used to work in the veterinary medicine world as a veterinary assistant as well as a receptionist for about 5 years, alongside working for my local Humane Society - began house & pet sitting for clients & have loved it ever since. I have 4 cats & 4 dogs of my own, as well as several other species of animals, so I am well rounded in experience with most animals. I’m currently a stay at home farm mom, so I have plenty of time all 7 days of the week to help you take care of your furry friends! I understand that every fur baby is different & has their own routines & needs.. my goal is to act as an extension of yourself in order to take care of your pets in whatever way they may need. It takes a village, & I’m your gal!

About: Hello Pet Parents, I'm back to pet sitting after being gone awhile. I was working full time but now I am retired- woo hoo! A little about myself. Friends will tell you that I will run up to greet an animal first before a person - LOL - sad but true! I've volunteered at the AZ Humane Society and rescued all my dogs m from the AZ Animal Welfare League. My last job was working for PetSmart Charities. I just returned from volunteering at Best Friends Animal Sanctuary in Kanab, UT. It was amazing. Please give me a call so we can all have a meet & greet! Thank you! Holly I’ve recently retired and looking to get out of my husband’s hair! I love meeting new pets and adding adventures to their lives since they aren’t with us long enough! At home, we have a pet door and a fully fenced yard. I also own 2 donkeys but I don’t allow them to meet. All it takes is one kick. I’m all about safety first.

About: I am retired and enjoy living and playing in Big Bear. I dont have my own pets so let me take care of yours! I have owned pets for many years and I am that guy who says hi to every pet in town :) They are one of mankind's favorite creatures and I do my part to make them happy and safe. I am currently retired and have flexible hours and enjoy being outdoors. I am available for overnight stays in my home or day care. I can accomodate regular scheduling or work with people that travel or take vacations. I have a large home in Big Bear. There is a fenced yard with plenty of shade and privacy. I think your pet will find it to be a vacation all to themselves!
