About: I have been around animals my whole life. No animal is too big or too small. I love them all. Throughout my life I have had fish, crabs, rats, mice, gerbil's cats, dogs, and birds and many more. I am currently a masters student with lots of free time to give your companion the fresh air and exercise they need. The main hours I am open to this is 7am to 3pm however I can make myself available to meet your schedule. When it comes to animals they are just as much as part of the family as you or I. I will love yours as if they are mine.

About: I am currently working at an animal hospital as a veterinary assistant and I am planning on going to vet tech school in the fall. I’m currently working full time at an ER and on break from school so i will have plenty of time to hang out with your animals! I am pretty flexible with my daily/weekly routine. I am currently training my puppy and taking care of my cats but am able to do whatever is needed for your animals to be happy, safe, and comfy!


12. Sarah H.


“Sarah is literally THE best dog walker/sitter Oatmeal has ever had! She is extremely punctual, actually spends a full half hour with him during each visit and sends tons of pictures and notes! I highly recommend her if you want someone to treat your dog right.”


13. Raina I.

“I requested super last minute, I mean like 1 hour later and she was accommodating and even able to come earlier. I wasn’t able to make it home to let her out because I got hung up at work. She definitely made me feel so much better about leaving her.”


14. Mary M.

16. Sarah D.
“I have used Sarah numerous times to watch my cat and dog when I've been out of town or just need someone to check on them while I'm at work. She does a great job and our dog Brew absolutely loves her!”


17. Jenna L.
“Jenna loves all animals! She is very responsible and always takes the best care of my babies. She is a great communicator and is always reliable. I would recommend her to anyone who wants the best for their fur babies ❤️💙💜💖💗💛😻🐶”


18. Jennifer B.
“I would highly recommend Jennifer as a caregiver for your pet. She has taken care of both my dogs and cat while I was away many times and always does a terrific job. She is thorough, reliable and consistent. She spends quality time with them and shows them love snd affection. The dogs adore her and always make a big deal over her when they see her. I can tell that she treats them like her own and truly has a warm and wonderful heart towards animals.”


19. katharine F.
“Kat is a very experienced pet sitter. In fact, it was through her jobs in Hawaii that we first met—and later married! Kat was so highly recommended that she had back-to-back dog sitting jobs for 6 months in Hawaii, often in homes worth $1,000,000+. She would also “people sit” for her friends’ elderly parents—a skill she gained caretaking for her grandmother for 7 years. In sum, trust Kat to walk your dog so that she will stop asking me to go on walks with her!”


20. Nathan O.

“Nathan and Veronica are huge dog lovers and always take the best care of Zohan (my golden doodle). I have known them for about 5 years now and they love to watch Zohan when i go out of town and he always has the best time with their black lab Great Dane mix Django. They have a fenced in back yard and the dogs have a blast running around. I don't ever have to worry because I know he is in good hands! I can guarantee your dog will have a positive experience!”
