About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my years of hands-on experience caring for pets in a home setting. I've been pet-sitting since high school, providing not just daily walks and care, but also overnight stays and home care, ensuring both pets and their homes are well looked after. I’m experienced in caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies who need extra playtime to senior dogs who require gentle care and patience. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I make sure to follow their schedule closely—whether it’s feeding, administering medications, or just giving them extra love and attention while their owners are away. Beyond pet care, I also respect and maintain the home by keeping it clean and secure, so clients can travel with peace of mind. I provide regular updates with photos and messages, so pet parents always feel connected. My goal is to ensure that your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for in your absence, and that you return to a happy, stress-free home! Now that I’ve graduated, I have a more flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time and energy to provide reliable, attentive pet care. I’m able to accommodate a wide range of needs, from midday check-ins to extended overnight stays. I follow your pet's usual schedule, including feeding, walks, playtime, and bedtime to minimize stress while you're away. I make sure your dog gets the right amount of exercise, whether that's a daily long walk or a short potty break. I spend quality time with your pet, giving them affection, playtime, and attention to prevent loneliness. For home care, I keep the house tidy, bring in mail, water plants, and ensure everything stays secure while you're away. I send daily updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and cared for.
About: Growing up on a farm means I have an abundance of experience with animals of all shapes and sizes. This experience has only grown thanks to the 1000+ hours spent caring for a great variety of animals thanks to my preparation for and training in veterinary school. I have worked in several veterinary clinics, a couple of shelter settings, and a commercial aviary. This means I am incredibly comfortable caring for all kinds of pets of any age, as well administering medications and keeping up with unique needs. Much of my love for veterinary medicine comes from the opportunity to bond with people and their pets, and providing pet care is another amazing chance to do just that. I would love to serve you and your four-legged family! Being a student allows for a very flexible schedule, perfect for attentive and personalized pet care! Much of my course work can be done online, so I am often free to hang out with your furry friends while I study throughout the day. I try to build my schedule where I don't need to leave pets alone longer than 6 hours maximum, and I am willing to adjust according to your pet's needs. I take great care to keep your pet's routine as similar as possible to their normal to minimize stress. I love to schedule a meet & greet beforehand to get to know you and your pet, and get to know all the details of their routine. I know what questions to ask to make the process as enjoyable and stress free as possible. I also know how nice it is to come back to a clean home. Therefore, when staying in a client's home I take great care to leave everything exactly as it was or better. That way you can relax knowing your pets are well taken care of, and you have nothing to worry about when you return.
About: I’ve dog-sat (and house-sat) for friends for a while, and nothing brings me more joy than seeing happy dogs! I love taking them for long walks or runs, spending the day playing with them, and of course giving them plenty of hugs and pets! ❤️🐶 I’m currently working full-time, so during the week I’m available to go on short walks during lunch and make sure your dog is fed and can use the bathroom. I can spend time with them in the evenings as well, and I’m also available for house sitting to keep them company while you’re away! I don’t have any pets of my own at home, but I’ve had plenty of experience caring for pets of friends and family members. I like taking them for walks through neighborhoods or parks where they can meet other dogs or people and see new places!
“Literally couldn’t have asked for a better caregiver for my babies!! It’s the first vacation I’ve been on with no stress for them because I know they are being super well taken care of!”

My dog is like my child which I know that how it is for a lot of people which is why I will always care for your animal like mine!
About: I love animals!! I’ve had 6 dogs growing up and now I have 2 hamsters, 1 betta fish and 1 dog! I’ve always loved animals and I always will! I’ll be there for your dog for anything you want me to be and for whatever they need or want as well.

Jackie M.
“Jackie did an amazing job taking care of our pup for the weekend, as always. We appreciate her attentiveness and great communication! Thanks Jackie.”
Alexandra P.
“If you’re looking for someone that is reliable, trustworthy, and flexible with great communication skills, a genuine passion for animals and real understanding of animal behavior, then this is your girl! She has taken incredible care of my large dog Madison on their numerous walks together. My dog is pretty high energy and can be reactive to wildlife. Alex has handled her quirks with incredible understanding, patience and flexibility. On the hotter days of the summer I know I can always trust Alex to look out for the well-being of my dog and make any necessary adjustments to their walk to ensure the safety of my fur baby. I am a 4th year veterinary student, so I can be pretty picky with who I trust to care for my dog, however, I seriously can’t recommend her enough!”
Dominic P.
“Dominic is a very responsible and loving human towards dogs. I have asked him to watch my dogs before and he was nothing but exceptional. The care he has for animals is incomparable. He’s an amazing candidate for your company!”
Rachel R.

Hannah H.
“Hannah is the biggest animal lover I know! She has grown up around dogs and cats her whole life, she even wanted to become a veterinarian for the longest time. Hannah also recently adopted her own dog from the shelter and trains him, and spoils him so much. I have known hannah for 8 years now and is the most trustful person I know.”
Landon W.
“Landon has watched my fur baby for about 2 years now. He walks her and takes care of her as soon as I need him to. He also will bring her treats and a toy when he comes. 😊 My baby girl loves him so much! I would not want anyone else to care for her. He’s so loving and he has a heart of gold!💛”

Rebecca is WONDERFUL! She took care of our two cats while we were traveling recently and she really put our minds at ease. She stopped by to meet the cats before our trip so I could go through all the things with her. I highly recommend her and will be using her again in the future. Thank you, Rebecca!
