About: I have always been an animal person. I have a cat of my own, and I spoil her so much. I am very easy going and will treat your pet like my own I am currently working full time, so I am able to dog sit in the event/on weekends. I am flexible and will make anytime work I have a cat that I keep indoors at all times. I will take care of your pet as if they were my own pet

About: Absolutely obsessed with all fur babies! I have two playful French Bulldogs, Alfredo and Maple, so I’m well-versed in picky eaters, stroller rides, medication administration, slobbery kisses, and snuggly (sometimes stinky) cuddles. My home also includes two spoiled cats who stay separate at all times, ensuring a stress-free environment for pets who prefer a feline-free stay. I provide reliable, loving care tailored to each pet’s needs, with plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. With a fully remote job, I’m home all day to give your pet the care they deserve. Plus, my large, fenced-in yard (6 feet tall) offers plenty of space for safe playtime! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine! With a fully remote job, I’m home all day to provide consistent care, supervision, and attention. My own dogs have set meal times, potty breaks, and play sessions, which makes it easy to incorporate other pets into our schedule. Whether it’s walks, playtime in my fenced yard, snuggles on the couch, or medication administration, I make sure every pet gets the individualized care they need. In my home, I provide a safe, structured, and loving environment tailored to each pet’s needs. Dogs enjoy supervised playtime in my yard, plenty of snuggles, and a routine that includes regular meals, potty breaks, and exercise. My own dogs are friendly and playful, but I can also accommodate dogs who prefer their own space. Crate-trained dogs are welcome to bring their crate for a familiar, comfortable sleeping arrangement. Cats in my home stay completely separate, ensuring a stress-free environment for visiting pets. For in-home pet care, I follow the owner’s instructions closely to maintain their pet’s normal routine. This includes feeding, administering medication if needed, walks, playtime, and lots of attention. I make sure pets feel comfortable and cared for, whether that means sticking to their usual schedule or giving extra cuddles while their family is away.

About: I am a cat mom to two very spoiled cats. The majority of my recent pet sitting experience is with cats but I have house-sat for small dogs previously. I work my full-time job Monday-Thursday but am available in the mornings before 8:00 and after 6:00 pm. Fridays and weekends I am available most of the day. My pets are extremely spoiled and I will treat yours the same. As a frequent traveler, I know how sad it can be to leave your furry friends at home alone for several days at a time. When you work with me, your pet will be pampered and well-taken care of. My goal is to make your pet feel pampered and at ease when you are away.

“Kevin is our lifesaver. Handing Sammy over to him is a joy. Kevin’s attention to detail and care for Sammy is unmatched. We feel so lucky that we found Kevin and that he is a part of Sammy’s life because it sure means the world to him. Thank you Kevin. 🐾🦮”

I have two boys, 10 and 11, who are gentle, animal-loving helpers and love playing with the dogs we care for. Your pet will get plenty of love, attention, and activity while you’re away

“I can't say enough about Abby! My dog is pretty shy and fussy about who he makes friends with. Not when it came to Abby! They bonded almost instantly and became great walking buddies from day one. She takes him on various routes and mixes up the scenery. With the heat wave we've been having, she's used good judgement and prudence on how far the walks should go and always brings water and bowl for Sparky to hydrate. I always look forward to her notes and pics after each walk too. Overall experience: Top notch 100% Five Star Plus! You rock Abby!”


About: Hi! My name is Thalia, and I have 4 years of pet caretaking, grooming, and house sitting experience under my belt. I am a beginner trainer and groomer for all animals. I’m excited to work with you and to maintain your home or pets health, safety, and happiness. My schedule changes from week to week but I’m currently able to be there for 99% of your pets day to walk, feed, groom, or administer their medication. I always like to ensure your pets safety by sticking by them for most of the day even if they go outside for potty breaks. Staying close to your pet allows me to ensure their absolute safety during pet sitting. I also check for ticks, fleas, or such bugs after every trip outside. All entrances to the home will be locked when both I and your pet are indoors for maximum security. And frequent checks of the pets whereabouts and/or household appliances to make sure they aren’t getting turned and cabinets so that your pets can be safe from any possible danger for your extended peace of mind.
