Her communication was also a big plus. I am very thankful that we were able to connect with her and will definitely reach out to her in the future.”

“If I could give more stars I would!! I have 5 cats and heather was amazing with them. I originally booked heather for 3 day out of the 10 days we were out of town. Heather was very accommodating with my last minute requests for more days then originally booked! She left notes about how each of my babies and pictures! I will most definitely be hiring heather again!”

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all shapes and sizes — from energetic puppies to senior dogs who just want a cozy nap buddy. I’ve provided everything from daily walks and playtime to overnight stays and medication management. I treat every pet like family, making sure they feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. Whether it’s belly rubs, fetch marathons, or quiet cuddle time, I’ve got it covered! I offer flexible booking for drop-in visits, walks, or overnight stays — just let me know what works best for you and your pet or pets! I provide personalized, in-home care that keeps your pets comfortable, happy, and most importantly — safe. I stick to their routines, offer plenty of playtime and affection, and ensure your home stays secure while you’re away. From daily visits to overnight stays, I bring peace of mind with regular updates and a strong focus on your pet’s well-being and safety.

About: I have pet sat and walked dogs for friends and family for over 20 years, used to be a pet bather for PetSmart when I was in high school. I have had dogs and cats my whole life and love spending time with animals of any kind! Can’t wait to meet my new fur friend! I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I currently take my dog and my neighbor‘s dog out every three hours and have flexibility to add additional pets to my schedule. I have a dog park right downstairs from my apartment. We go out several times a day and have lots of dog friends here. I have helped walk neighbors dogs the last year that I’ve lived here as well

“Ren is amazing and very patient and it is obvious she loves being with animals. She really tuckered out my basset Winifred on a walk after playing with her and then gave her some snuggle time while I was out for the evening. Check-ins were timely and absolutely no issue. Highly recommended!”

About: Hello! My name is Cleide, I’m from Brazil and I have a true passion for animals. I have many years of experience caring for dogs and cats, including my own three cats that came with me from Brazil. I understand how important it is to give your pet not only basic care, but also love, attention, and affection. I’m available for house sitting, drop-in visits, walks, and I can also stay overnight if needed. Your pet will never feel lonely with me – I’ll treat them as part of my own family. I speak Portuguese and use translation tools to communicate clearly in English, so you can always count on updates and photos of your furry friend I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time every day to caring for pets. I can easily adjust my routine to fit the needs of each pet, whether it’s daily walks, playtime, feeding, or overnight stays. Your pet will always get the attention and care they deserve. When caring for pets in the client’s home, I follow their routines closely to keep pets comfortable and stress-free. This includes feeding at their usual times, daily walks or play sessions, cleaning up after them, and giving plenty of love and attention. I adapt to each pet’s personality—whether they are active and playful or prefer a calm, quiet environment. My goal is always to make them feel safe, loved, and happy while their family is away.

About: I believe that every pet is unique, and I tailor my care to meet their individual needs. What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and my commitment to providing them with the best possible care. With experience in training puppies and senior pet care, I go beyond the basics of feeding and walking. Whether it’s helping a puppy learn their first commands or providing special care for senior pets with mobility challenges, I’m here to make sure your pet feels loved, safe, and secure. I take the time to build strong bonds with each pet, offering them the attention, playtime, and companionship they deserve. My approach is not just about sitting—it’s about enriching their lives while you’re away, so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your furry friend is in caring hands. I also have experience managing medical needs for pets who require medication, ensuring that your pet receives the proper treatment with kindness and care. Your pet’s comfort and happiness is my top priority, and I treat them like family. I am a single mom and van lifer and becoming a full-time pet sitter has been a dream come true because it’s the perfect way to combine my love for animals, the flexibility I need as a mom, and my unique lifestyle. Pet sitting fits into my schedule in such a special way—it allows me to do what I love, while still being there for my son, who shares my deep love for animals. Living the van life gives me the freedom to set my own hours, which means I can be available to care for your pets at the times that work best for them—and for me. Whether I’m parked somewhere new or exploring familiar spots, I can always make sure your pets are getting the love, care, and attention they need while you’re away. And the best part? My son is always by my side, helping me with the pets and learning from every experience. He adores animals just as much as I do, so we make a great team. When I care for pets in your home, I treat your space and your furry family members with the utmost respect, safety, and love. I understand how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your pets and your home. That’s why I go the extra mile to create a safe and secure environment where your pet feels comfortable and well cared for. As a house sitter, I ensure your home is maintained just as you left it, with a special focus on keeping everything tidy and secure. I follow your instructions to the letter and am always mindful of your pet’s routine and any specific needs they may have. Your pet’s safety is my top priority, so I make sure to lock doors, close windows, and take any extra precautions to keep them safe. I also take the time to create a calm and comfortable environment for them, so they feel loved and at ease in your absence. As a dog walker, I am very aware of your dog’s temperament and needs. I choose safe walking routes, always keep an eye out for potential hazards, and adapt the walk to your pet’s pace and comfort. Whether it’s a leisurely stroll or an energetic run, I want your dog to feel safe and happy during every walk. I keep your pet on a leash or harness, and if they have any special instructions, I make sure to follow them carefully. As a drop-in sitter, I focus on providing one-on-one attention, whether that’s feeding, playing, or just cuddling. I take the time to make sure your pet feels loved and cared for, following your guidelines for feeding, medications, and any other special instructions. I send you updates so you can feel confident knowing your pet is in good hands, and that their emotional and physical needs are being met. Whether I’m house sitting, walking, or doing drop-in visits, my goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, secure, and loved in their own environment. I understand how much trust it takes to allow someone into your home and care for your pet, and I do not take that responsibility lightly. I promise to give your pet the same care and attention I give my own, and ensure they feel like a part of our family while you’re away.

About: I treat every pet like they’re my own—with patience, love, and attention to their unique needs. Whether it’s a high-energy pup who needs extra playtime or a shy cat who just wants quiet companionship, I adapt to each animal’s personality. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and experienced with everything from basic care to administering medications. My goal is to give pets a stress-free, comforting experience while keeping you updated and worry-free. I'm currently studying for my exams and only working part-time so I'll have plenty of time to dedicate to your fur babies! I am available 7 days a week, from 10am-9pm. For dogs, that might mean exciting walks, playtime in the yard, tug-of-war, fetch, or just some good old belly rubs and snuggles. For cats, I’ve got feather wands, laser pointers, and cozy cuddle sessions covered (if they’re the snuggly type, of course!). I love creating a happy, low-stress environment where your pets can relax, play, and enjoy their day while you're away. Whether they’re high-energy or more laid-back, I’ll match their vibe and make sure they have a purr-fectly wonderful time! 🐶🐱💛

Shona S.
“I declare, with full confidence and zero hesitation, that my wife would be an exceptional pet sitter. In fact, she’s not just good with animals—she thrives around them. That’s why we lovingly call her “Ellie Mae”, a nickname earned from her lifelong passion for animals and her almost magical ability to connect with every creature, great and small. Over the years, Shona has cared for an impressive variety of pets: dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, birds, lizards, turtles, axolotls—you name it, she’s probably loved it (and given it a cute name). She has a heart for animals that is as big as her smile, and an instinctive understanding of how to make them feel safe, loved, and happy. Whether it’s sticking to a feeding schedule, giving meds, going for long walks, or just curling up for some good old cuddle time, Shona is reliable, gentle, and full of love. Anyone who leaves their pets in her care can rest easy knowing they’re in the hands of someone who treats every animal like family. Sincerely, [A very proud and slightly jealous husband of all the animals who get to spend time with her]”

She went above and beyond to make sure he was not only safe and healthy but also having fun and feeling at home.

We highly recommend Edilane to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter — she’s the best!”

My three cats also love her, which says a lot because they’re usually picky with people! She's the kind of person you can totally trust, responsible, kind, and always makes sure the kitties are happy and comfortable. Honestly, your pets will be in great hands with her!”
