Kiersen was an absolute gem! They took amazing care of our two cats and dog, as well as our home. They were communicative, kind, respectful, and so caring!! I can truly say they went above and beyond. Highly recommend hiring them for your pet’s needs - we hope to hire them again in the future 😊

About: I’ve pet sat for my neighbors and family members for a few years. I used to pet sit for my aunt a lot and I loved it but she moved away, so I can’t pet sit for her anymore. I had so much fun, and I love spending time and caring for every animal. I look forward to meeting your amazing pets, and watching over them for you! I’m currently unemployed and have plenty of free time to check in and care for your pets. Im free the whole 7 days of the week :) I have 5 furry babies myself, 2 big dog fenced in the backyard and 3 kitties in the house, I also have 3 hermit crabs that I take care of. I have plenty of experience with all kinds of pets even a pig :)

About: I have had animals all my life, dogs, cats, rodents, and birds. I'm experienced with younger and older animals as well as giving medicines and other. I'm currently a college student and don't work so I have plenty of time to play with pups / kitties and come by for feedings and other. When pet sitting I typically will go by 2 to 3 times a day for feeding and play. I'm always careful around animals especially when they don't know me, I know some can take some time to warm up! I can do walks, play in house, or a backyard if allowed, and other general care.

We recently had the pleasure of having Mel care for our two dogs, and overall it was a positive experience. From the start, she was kind, communicative, and clearly comfortable around dogs. Most importantly, our pups seemed happy, well cared for, and at ease when we returned, which means a lot to us. We appreciate the care and attention she gave our dogs and would consider working with her again, especially given how comfortable our pets were in her care.

About: I provide dependable drop-in visits, dog walking, and house sitting for dogs and cats of all sizes. I have 17+ years of pet sitting experience and bring a calm, confident approach that helps pets feel safe and comfortable right away. Because I work from home, I have a flexible schedule and can offer consistent attention throughout the day—especially helpful for pets who need routine or don’t like being alone for long. I’m very comfortable with large dogs (I have a 4-year-old 110 lb Great Pyrenees), but I genuinely enjoy caring for pets of all personalities and sizes. I adjust my care to what each pet needs—whether that’s energy, structure, or calm companionship. I also have 8 years of experience as a personal assistant, so I’m reliable, organized, and detail-oriented when it comes to following instructions and communicating clearly. What you can expect from me: 🐾 17+ years of pet sitting experience 🐾 Calm, confident care for all sizes 🐾 Work-from-home flexibility = more consistent attention 🐾 Experienced with large dogs 🐾 Reliable communication + thoughtful updates 🐾 8 years of personal assistant experience—organized, reliable, detail-oriented 🐾 Respectful care for your home and routine Because I work from home, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to plan my day around walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting needs without rushing or squeezing pets in. I’m already used to being home and present throughout the day, so I can easily give pets consistent attention, regular breaks, and companionship. On a weekly basis, I’m able to reliably accommodate recurring care as well as one-time bookings, and I make sure each visit is fully built into my schedule so pets always get my focused time and care. In a client’s home, I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and secure while their owner is away. I take time to understand each pet’s needs, personality, and schedule ahead of time, and I make sure feedings, walks, playtime, and any medications are done exactly as instructed. I also focus on creating a calm, reassuring presence so pets feel relaxed rather than stressed by the change in routine. My visits are never rushed—I stay present, give them real attention, and make sure they’re getting both care and companionship. I also keep owners updated with clear, thoughtful messages so they always know how their pet is doing.

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats all my life, recently I have fostered several puppies until they were old enough for adoption. I have experience with dogs of all size and am used to walking dogs that pull on the leash :) I have stayed in others homes over night and have had dogs in my home while their family was away! I am currently working part time and make the schedule for my company so I can typically work around any schedule, however scheduling a sitting a week prior is preferred. If I am working it is typically 3:00 pm - 9:00 pm. I have a large fenced in backyard and a 6 year old dog who is very friendly and has never had any issues with pups who have come to stay with us in the past! My neighborhood has plenty of walking trails that are shaded for days that are hot.

About: I love dogs! I’ve had dogs my entire life. I dog sit for friends and family all the time. Big and small dogs. I currently have my own maniac, Bolt. A sweet Chow mix and I often look after my parents three dogs. Two pyrs and a puppy lab! I usually can keep my schedule pretty open. I am a senior in college so my schedule will get a bit hectic but I will do my best to work my schedule as best I can! My parents have two Great Pyrenees and a lab puppy. All are rescues. We do have a puppy pyr who we rescued so I’m used to big dogs. I’m used to some fights and food aggression so it’s not new to me. Any concerns you may have, you can absolutely ask me.

Antonio was great with our nervous/reactive dog, Waylo, and knew not to push to create a relationship. Both Penny and Waylo were in great care, and updates were provided regularly. We felt confident that our dogs were in good hands. We definitely recommend Antonio, and would gladly use his services again.

Kristen made me feel super at easy for Sauce's first sitter experience! She was on time, comfortable with Sauce, followed his typical routine, and knowledgable. She sent photos and videos, let me know what the two of them were up to, and gave updates on potty breaks and when she was leaving. Definitely reaching back out to her for future pup sitting! Thank you :)

About: We’re two best friends eager to care for your babies! We are great with dogs and cats, but also have experience with exotic animals. Aaron worked as a full time animal caretaker at Pet Supplies Plus and worked closely with small animals, reptiles and fish. As for our own home, we have 7 babies that get our full attention daily. We have two pit mixes, four cats, and a ball python. Our daily routine is to feed, play, cuddle and engage as much as possible with our babies. We always make sure their needs are met and we promise to love and care for yours in the same way we do for our own furry/scaled children. In addition to our own pets, we enjoy taking care of and helping out family members and friends with their pet needs. We have cared for hyperactive puppies (and some adults that haven’t grown out of it lol), senior dogs that need a lot of patience and help with their physical activity and potty/bladder needs, and plenty of cats that we love to work with and ensure they receive patience with socialization. We have a fairly flexible and open schedule and love to organize a daily routine! Aaron is primarily available on the weekdays and Denny is available on the weekends. We are happy to send available times or be given times and work with you to ensure timely care for your babies :) We have a huge fenced in yard on our property that our dogs love to play in and explore. We have worked on crate training for our dogs for while we’re away and frequently take them on walks while we’re home. They love to socialize with one another, our cats and us! Our cats are also super loving and enjoy their cat trees, their litter robot and getting to free roam around our house. All of our pets are also huge cuddle bugs!
