Eni did a fabulous job! she met with us beforehand and Carson and they had an immediate bond. She took her time and was very diligent in writing down what we needed. Carson responded positive to her and our house was left exactly as she found it. All directions followed and our boy was in great hands. I highly recommend Eni to anyone who needs a responsible pet sitter. Thank you!

About: I have several years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. From energetic puppies to gentle seniors! I’ve also handled dogs who are quite temperamental including my own dog, who can be quite temperamental at times. This personal experience has taught me the importance of patience, reading animal body language, and creating a calm, consistent environment that builds trust. As a remote worker with a flexible schedule, I’m able to provide consistent, attentive care for your pets throughout the day. Whether it’s potty breaks, playtime, medication, or just companionship, I’m available and fully present to meet all of your pet’s needs. When your pets are in my care, their safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities! You can trust that I’ll follow their routine closely, provide plenty of love and attention, and respond to their needs with care and compassion. I treat every home with respect and every pet like family—offering you complete peace of mind while you’re away.

About: I have experience caring for cats with a variety of personalities, ages, and care needs. My experience includes feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, administering medications when needed, drop-in visits, and providing companionship while owners are away. I understand that every cat is different—some love attention while others prefer space—and I take the time to learn their routines and comfort levels. My goal is always to provide a calm, safe, and stress-free environment while treating every cat like part of the family. My boys are now in elementary school, so I have extra time on my hands & wanted to help my husband financially. I also don’t travel much for holidays as I have a large family, so I am around for all your Holiday vacation needs! I follow good instructions, so whatever you say is whatever I do! Guaranteed! I have a big dog and a medium sized dog so I am comfortable with all types & sizes of dogs. I will also leave you a note in regards to everything that happens with your furry love.

Jennifer was attentive and caring with our dog, Ben. She gave him the time and attention that we were looking for. Ben does not like being alone and she helped to ease his anxiety. Jennifer was in constant communication with messages, photos, and videos. She was also very fast to respond and answer questions. I would definitely use her again.

About: I’ve always had a genuine love for animals, especially dogs, and being around them comes naturally to me. I’m patient, calm, and very in tune with their behavior and energy. I’ve also had hands-on experience helping care for dogs during pregnancy and birth, which taught me how to stay attentive, gentle, and responsible in more sensitive situations. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or simply keeping them company, I focus on making sure each dog feels safe, understood, and comfortable. Spending time with dogs is something that genuinely brings me peace and helps me stay grounded. I enjoy having a routine, and caring for animals fits naturally into my day. I currently have a flexible schedule, so I’m able to be consistent and reliable throughout the week for walks and drop-in visits. I like creating a calm, positive environment for dogs while also making sure they get the attention and care they need. If I could, I would create a space for dogs in need where they feel safe, loved, and cared for. Safety and trust are very important to me. I always follow the pet parent’s instructions closely and make sure pets are secure, comfortable, and never put in unsafe situations. During walks, I stay aware of the environment, avoid hazards like hot pavement, and keep a close eye on the dog’s behavior. I also provide updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away.

About: I have 10+ years of hands on experience caring for dogs of all breeds and personalities. I’m the proud dog mom of three Italian Greyhounds and have experience breeding, raising puppies, behavior training, grooming, exercising, and providing attentive daily care. What sets me apart is that I truly understand dogs beyond basic sitting. I’ve worked with many breeds, from Belgian Malinois and German Shepherd’s to Frenchies, Beagles, Italian Greyhounds, full-size Greyhounds, Goldendoodles, and more, so I’m comfortable adapting to different temperaments, energy levels, ages and stages, and needs. I treat every dog like my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and engaged with plenty of play, exercise, and attention while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give dogs plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. Caring for dogs is something I truly enjoy, so I make sure each pup gets individualized care, playtime, and a calm, comfortable environment while you’re away. I keep my schedule intentionally limited so every dog gets the attention they deserve, and my availability tends to fill up quickly so early booking is always recommended. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fenced yard and a safe, calm home environment. My three friendly Italian Greyhounds are well socialized and used to being around other dogs. Because of my experience breeding and raising puppies, I’m very attentive to dog behavior and body language and make sure introductions and play are safe and positive. I can crate if needed and always follow the routines, feeding schedules, and instructions that keep your dog happy and comfortable.

About: We had a yorkiepoo for 15 1/2 years. I don't want one of my own right now, can't go thru that loss again, it was awful. I also have two daughters, family and friends in Ohio, we travel a lot and don’t want to be tied down with a dog of our own. I get my “fix” by watching others dogs. Due to a family member allergies, I can not board a dog at my home that sheds. We moved here from Ohio in 2021. I am not working and would love to take care, play or walk your fur baby or babies. We live in a sub division with sidewalks and walking trails for your dog. Small yard but no fence. Your dog will get lots of love.

About: I absolutely love animals! I am just naturally gravitated gravitated towards them. I am very attentive, alert, agile, patient and always looking for excuses to play with animals. I had two cats growing up and have a very energetic dog for over two years now. With me, the dog will always be looked after and cared for and I promise to provide the best care that I can provide. If I have any questions or concerns, I'll be sure to ask right away, and I respond very quickly to the phone vise versa. I live very close to a dog park, so if anyone is interested in having me take them to the park, I'd be more than happy to. Since I'm currently an online college student, I have a lot of free time to be there for your dogs.

About: I love animals and have been caring for them since I can remember. Whether it be my own pets, volunteering, or as a job. I have taken the time to learn about the mannerisms and needs of many pets, cats and dogs in particular. I am comfortable accommodating medical issues and more challenging personalities. I strive to be thorough and responsible with my care, not only for your satisfaction, but because I want your babies to be as comfortable as possible! I have ample time throughout the week to dedicate to sitting though it will change periodically due to potential work schedule changes or school or personal plans My care will vary depending on your wishes and the personality of your pets! In general, I prefer to clean the litter box periodically throughout the day (for dogs bathroom breaks every two hours or less is optimal), as well as replace their water 2-3 times. I believe intellectual stimulation everyday is important via playing or other new experiences. I also own adjustable harnesses for supervised outdoors time so long as that is something you’re comfortable with.

About: Hello! For most of my life I've grown up around pets. We always had dogs and cats, and while currently we have four cats I often house sit my mother's dog Honey. I have a passion for animals I hope to someday turn into a career. Just a side note while I am available weekends my time is limited to late mornings early afternoons due to transportation issues Currently I am unemployed and trying to get out of the food service industry. I have access to a vehicle if needed for house visits. I will happily take your furry friend on multiple walks, drop in to ensure everyone gets bathroom breaks, or even watch your cats if you're out of town. Typically for our four cats I take sole care of them. They are fed 1/4 cup dry food each 2 times a day and a can of wet food a day as well. Our cats are older so there's not much activity wise, however when Honey my mother's dog visits we usually do two walks a day. We also have a fenced in backyard for zoomies, full screened in lanai (with a pool which can be sectioned off) for post zoomies. When watching her overnight she gets herself a full bowl of dry food to graze on while receiving two portions of wet food throughout the day.

What a great experience. Used the app for the first time and it was seamless. Danea was fantastic! She sent multiple pictures and made sure we were updated. This is the first time we had to leave the puppy at home and were nervous on who would care for her but we would go back to Danea in a heartbeat with her professionalism and communication. Thank you so much!

Amanda did a fantastic job! She went above and beyond in caring for our dogs. Before booking with her, several people had canceled, but she was up to the task. Stitch had just started insulin injections shortly before we were set to leave him for a trip. She did a wonderful job communicating how everything was going and making us feel confident that he was safe and sound. We would rebook her in a heartbeat.

We recently moved to the area and were a bit stressed about finding a reliable pet sitter our dogs would feel comfortable with. Thankfully, we found Catlyn—and we couldn’t be happier! Before committing, she took the time to meet our dogs and get to know them, which gave us so much peace of mind. Her flexibility, clear communication, and genuine care for our pets really stood out. She kept us updated and made sure the dogs were not only safe but truly cared for. You can tell she loves what she does. I’d highly recommend Catlyn to anyone looking for a thoughtful and dependable pet sitter. We're so glad we found her and are looking forward to having her care for our pets again in the future!
