About: Hi there! I’m Jailee, and I’ve been caring for animals my whole life—from my own pets to those of friends, family, and clients. I have hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities, and I’m confident handling everything from daily walks and potty breaks to feeding, administering medications, and providing lots of love and playtime. I’ve worked in veterinary clinics, fostered rescue pets, and even run my own small dachshund breeding program, so I know how to read animal body language and respond calmly in any situation. Whether your pup needs a high-energy walk or a quiet cuddle buddy, I tailor my care to meet their individual needs. You can count on me to treat your pet like one of my own—with patience, compassion, and attention to detail. I’m reliable, communicative, and always happy to send updates so you can relax knowing your pet is in great hands! I’m currently enrolled in college courses online, which gives me a super flexible schedule and allows me to spend most of my time at home with my animals. Since I work from home and don’t have to commute, I’m available throughout the day for walks, drop-ins, or overnight care. Your pets will never be left alone for long—I’m usually just a few steps away, whether I’m studying or relaxing with my own dogs. My routine revolves around animal care, so I’m happy to accommodate special feeding times, medication schedules, or extra play sessions. Weekdays and weekends are both open for bookings, and I’m especially available during mornings, afternoons, and early evenings. If you ever need last-minute help, feel free to reach out—I’ve got the flexibility to jump in when needed! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where your animal will feel secure, loved, and well cared for. I have experience handling pets with medical needs, behavioral quirks, and separation anxiety, so I always pay close attention to body language and individual routines. I never leave pets unattended outside and always use secure leashes, crates, or gates as needed for their safety. My home is free of hazards and is kept tidy and stress-free to create a relaxing space for animals to decompress. You can count on me to treat your pets like family—with patience, kindness, and constant supervision. I also send regular updates with photos or videos so you can stay connected and confident while you’re away. Trust and transparency matter to me, and I want you to feel completely at ease knowing your pets are in responsible, experienced hands.

About: I am a college student athlete who always has and always will absolutely love and care for animals. With that being said, I love being active! I have owned and cared for many many animals aswell! Ranging from chickens to saltwater fish/corals! Back home we have a Great Pyrenees, and am well experienced with bigger breeds and understand their limitations but also their potential. I would love so much to care, sit, play, and walk with your fur babies as they deserve all the love in the world! As a student athlete my schedule mainly entails practice and home. I usually train 1-2 times a day and generally that is the only time I am away from home which is just a few hours. My number one priority is for your fur babies to get all the love and attention needed. Although I live in a condominium, it is rather large. There are several areas and trails to walk. Your pet would be allowed on all furniture and is offered all the outside time wanted with my wrap around patio and the many many walks taken throughout the day. Your fur baby is my number one priority as they are the king/queen if this home and will be treated as such! They deserve all the love and care in the world as I am eager to give! I hope to get to share my services and love with your fur babies!

“Kristin was an amazing pet sitter. She always updated me about my cat and was so caring with him. I would definitely recommend her for anybody who wants their pet to receive lots of love while the owners are gone.”


About: Growing up I always house and pet sit for my friends and neighbors. I would care for their animals and also upkeep the house if needed. I also grew up around a plethora of animals, so I have experience with all kinds! Over the summer, I am available for anything you need! I have no commitments on the weeks that I will be home, so I am here to care for or hang out with your animals. In someone’s home, I make sure the pet is comfortable with a new person around and let them feel safe in the comfort of their own home.

“Katalina did an amazing job! She followed all instructions, sent drop-in visit pictures, and treated my dog well. She also went beyond by cleaning my dishes in the sink and tidying up my apartment for when I got back. I would definitely recommend her and use her again in the future!”



About: I go the extra mile to make you and your dog feel like you've picked the best one to take care of your dog! I have several years experience working with dogs and all kinds of animals. I have worked in non profit rescue organizations as a kennel tech and Manager. I have volunteered at vet clinics and grew up working for a retired Veterinarian taking care of his dog and animals. I have an open availability and can work with you on very short notice. I have a very good understanding for dogs behavior. I can and love to match up 2 or more dogs who have never met each other to play together. I love a challenge and working on dogs with problems their owner would like for me to work on.

“Ashley watched my dog over 3 days and was wonderful! She was very respectful of my home and followed every instruction perfectly. My dog has 2 health conditions that she was mindful of (medicating and maintaining water intake). My dog seemed to love her and was very excited to see her each day. She left detailed reports and was very respectful. I would utilize her drop in services again.”


About: I’ve loved animals my whole life and grew up with just about every pet you could think of. I have several years of experience walking dogs, pet sitting, and caring for pets of all sizes and personalities. I’m comfortable giving medication, handling basic training, and making sure pets feel safe, happy, and loved. I’m reliable, patient, and always keep owners updated while their pets are in my care! I am currently living at home for the summer before I go back to my job in France caring for children!! So I am available pretty much everyday! Whether in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and happy. I follow their usual routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and medication, and keep the space clean. I also share updates and photos so owners feel at ease. My goal is to make every pet feel like family.

When I was 12, I started taking care of pets on my own I have cared for many dogs of an array of breeds of all sizes; I have had puppers that had very specific needs (medications, ice water, cuddles 247). And some that only needed some good love and attention while their family was away. I have also cared for many cats and other animals, including Guinea pigs, Flying squires, Rabbits, Fish, Frogs, and Snakes. All pets have different needs, routines, and levels of attention they are used to and comfortable with but no matter the animal, I will be there to take care of their needs and give them as much attention and love as they are comfy with. I will do my very best to keep your loved ones safe and happy and well cared for when you are not able to! I am free weekdays anytime before 5pm, I can also be available for a short drop in anytime after 5pm on weekdays and on weekends. I try to care for my client's pets the way I care for my own. Making shore they are happy healthy and comfortable, that they are safe and feel loved while their family is away.

Jailee G.
“As Jailee G.’s father, I’ve had the honor of watching her grow into one of the most compassionate, responsible, and driven young women I know—especially when it comes to animals. Jailee is currently a sophomore at Texas A&M University, pursuing her degree in veterinary medicine, a calling she’s been passionate about since childhood. What sets her apart is not just her love for animals, but her hands-on experience—she’s been working as a veterinary technician assistant and veterinary technician since she was just 14 years old. Now at 19, she brings over five years of real-world experience, along with a deep sense of care and professionalism, to every pet she works with. Whether she’s comforting a nervous pup, caring for a senior dog, or simply making sure a pet gets their daily exercise and affection, Jailee approaches every animal with kindness, patience, and knowledge. I’ve watched her rearrange her own schedule just to make sure a pet wasn’t alone or missed a walk. She has a calm, nurturing presence that animals gravitate toward and a strong work ethic that makes her incredibly dependable. Pet parents can have complete confidence knowing their furry family members are in loving, capable, and experienced hands with Jailee. I couldn’t be prouder to recommend her. — John G. (Proud Dad)”
