About: With over 10 years of pet sitting experience, I’ve cared for just about every kind of furry (and scaly!) friend—dogs, cats, bunnies, guinea pigs, and even snakes. Growing up surrounded by animals gave me hands-on knowledge, patience, and a deep love for all creatures. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me time and time again to care for their pets like they’re my own. I’m not just a sitter—I’m the dependable, animal-loving person pets are excited to see walk through the door. I’m available Monday through Saturday since I’m currently in between jobs, I’m home full‑time with plenty of flexibility. I can stop by almost any time of day or evening to give your pets the care, company, and attention they need — right when they need it. I provide loving, personalized care for pets both in their own homes and, when needed, in mine. I focus on creating a calm, comfortable environment where each pet feels safe and valued. Whether I’m visiting your home or hosting your furry friend for the day with me, I give them the same attentive care and affection I provide to my own cat. My flexible schedule allows me to check in throughout the day and evening, ensuring your pet’s needs are met consistently and with genuine love.

About: !!SAME DAY BOOKING AVAILABLE!! I understand things happen and we all need help sometimes. I am absolutely available for last minute changes in your life when you need someone to take care of your pets. I've taken care of animals of all types for years. As a previous volunteer for the HSSW, who has taken courses in animal behavior and veterinary science, I am extremely comfortable caring for animals of all types. Small or exotic pets, big or small dogs, cats, reactive or disabled animals- let's work together! I have experience with medication administration, so whether your pet needs pills, injections, or liquid medication, I'm here to help! My schedule is currently almost completely open. I'm available weekdays and weekends for all activities. As time goes on, my schedule may change, but you'll always be the first to know! For regular visits more than once a day, I can only provide services in a five mile radius. I make sure to follow your instructions exactly to make sure you can rest easy while your pet is being taken care of. I'll watch pets at your home, so your pet can have a familiar and comforting environment. I would like for you to rest easy as you know your animals are being taken care of.
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life, and right now my home is happily shared with 3 cats and 1 dog. I know firsthand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs and I make it my goal to meet them where they’re at. Whether it’s playtime, quiet snuggles, or keeping up with special diets or medications, I give each pet the same love and attention I give my own. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me for years to care for their pets when they’re away, and I take that trust seriously. You can feel confident knowing your furry family members are safe, happy, and cared for like they’re my own. I’m currently transitioning careers and working on starting my own business, so my schedule is very flexible. This means I can easily work pet visits and walks into my day without feeling rushed. I’m home often, which gives me plenty of time to give pets the attention they need whether that’s sticking to their feeding schedule, going for walks, or just spending extra time keeping them company. Having that flexibility also means I can adjust to last-minute bookings or changes if something comes up. If I’m caring for pets in my home, I make sure they’re comfortable, safe, and have everything they need fresh water, meals on time, and plenty of play or cuddle time depending on what they like. I pay attention to their habits so they can settle in and feel at home. When I’m at a client’s home, I stick to the routine their pets know. I’ll handle feeding, walks, litter boxes, and anything else they need, while also giving them attention so they don’t feel lonely. I like sending pictures and updates so you can see they’re happy while you’re away.
