About: My Monday-Friday work-from-home routine perfectly aligns with pet care. I provide consistent attention, timely feedings, walks, playtime, and personalized care, ensuring happy, stress-free pets all day. My work-from-home schedule allows flexibility for feeding, walks, and play. Being active myself ensures pets get plenty of exercise, attention, and love throughout the day. I care for pets in my home as if they were my own, providing love, safety, and a cozy environment. In clients’ homes, I maintain routines, ensure comfort, and deliver personalized care tailored to each pet’s needs, just like their family.

About: I have taken care of pets my entire life and just love them, doggies especially! I have been trusted with keeping many of my friends pets over the years and taking care of homes. I am in and out of the house during the day working a couple of different jobs all of which allow me to swing by during the day or keep me here during the day. I am always home at night. I have a fully fenced unescapable yard. I have a doggy door so the pets can go in and out as they please. I have a small shitzu who is old and nearly blind and deaf. She loves other animals and keeps to herself mostly.

“We are very thankful to Michael for taking care of our not 1, not 2, but 5 pups!!! 3 of the 5 are complete wildlings but he patiently handled them with grace. He is very easy to work with in scheduling. Michael even showed up for a meet & greet and spent quite a while learning the most he could about our babies so he would be prepared to take care of them when needed. We look forward to building the relationship & being able to count on him to help us when we have plans that cause us to be away from them. Thank you Michael!!!”


About: I have loved dogs all of my life and three of my own, ranging from 20lbs to 80lbs. I have some training background and I have trained my own. I am a full-time college student home for the summer with plenty of time to come over and play with your dogs. I currently work 8 to 5 on Tuesdays and maybe some other days depending on the week but please just message me as I am typically very flexible. I am very gentle with dogs, and I have a fun attitude towards them. I am not scared of big dogs, and I enjoy being around them.

About: Throughout my whole life, I have been surrounded by dogs and cats in the household. I’ve also had reptiles, so I have a well-rounded experience with taking care of many animals. I’ve taken many babysitting jobs from people I know, and am very good at following the specific instructions given. I have also assisted my dog while she had given birth. I’m a full time student, my average day schedule start around 9 and ends around 1. In the afternoons, nights, and weekends i am free. I live in a gated community, and have a house with 4 other animal loving roommates. My floors are wood, so any possible messes are easy to clean. They are free to roam around the house and in my room, but if given specific instructions I can also keep them in my room while taking care of them. I have room for a crate as well.

About: I'm here to lend a helping hand in caring for your furbabies. Mine are my world! I don't know that I've ever been without pets. I'm that person that stops traffic to help a turtle cross the road. I've saved many strays. We've fostered multiple sets of pups from the local shelters & I have experience with bottle feed babies, both pups & kittens. I have & have had many pets throughout my life & that's where my experience comes from. Dogs of all sizes, young & old. I can give medications if needed. I would love to help you out when you need someone to step in & care for them for a bit. I will treat them as I would my own. I work a full time job M - F, 8:00 - 4:00, but my job is Hybrid, so I work from home 3 days a week. So aside from meetings, I can fit in drop-in visits most anytime. I can also, stop by prior to & after work as well. My schedule is pretty flexible. I have multiple pups & even more cats. I have a fenced in backyard that our babies thoroughly enjoy being able to roam & explore daily. During my visits, I will care for your baby however you've instructed because I know it's beneficial for them to stay on their own schedule. A couple of mine have high anxiety so I fully understand the benefits of staying home & keeping schedules as much as possible. If they don't have a fence & need walks, I will welcome the additional steps.

About: I have been a pet lover since birth. Very comfortable with almost all animals and treat them like a family member always. I have had a total of 5 dogs my entire life and have never been without one. I’ve had birds, fish, bunnies and cats as well. Love pets from tiny to giant. No breed frightens me. I like to rub, pet, brush, tug and throw toys. Slobber does not bother me and love dog kisses. I am very aware of the responsibility involved with care giving. It is like taking care of a baby. They need your undivided attention and time. I am organized. I pay attention to detail. However always flexible as well. This is something that brings me great joy in life I am semi retired and have an open schedule. My days and nights are pretty flexible. I have help with my own pet, so it allows me to be able to do overnight visits as well. My pets have always been my family members. They sleep in the bed with me, sit on the couch with me and watch TV. I like to take them for a long walks and also fun car rides.

About: Looking for someone who treats your pup like family? I’m a dependable, experienced dog sitter who offers more than just the basics. With a genuine love for animals and a calm, patient approach, I ensure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved while you're away. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, feeding, or cuddles on the couch, I tailor care to meet your dog’s unique personality and needs.

Your dog’s well-being is my top priority—and I’ll always keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're gone. I am free at all times! I take college classes online and dont have a set schedule that I need to keep in mind, the only activity I do daily is exercising and caring for my own pup! Whenever I take dogs on walks I always bring a portable water bowl and treats, sometimes I'll teach them tricks for fun! For dog sitting I love taking them on walks, throwing them the ball and caring for them by grooming them! It seems to help the owners when their dogs already have a bath and are clean so they dont have to worry about it!

About: I love going on walks at least once a day so I'll love taking your dog(s) on walks along with playing with them. I also won't mind just taking them out for potty breaks, feeding them, socializing them, or anything that needs done. I grew up with dogs and unfortunately my apartment doesn't allow me to have them else I'd have my own. I'm up for traveling however far I need to in order to take care of your dog(s). I'm flexible with hours. I've always gotten along with all animals but I've definitely always been partial to puppies and dogs of all types. Any questions just let me know! I'm currently a nurse at Spring Hill Memorial, and only have 3-12 hour shifts a week. So I have free time to help with any pets needs. I have three friendly cats and a guest bedroom if need be. There's a dog park in my complex as well that I love going to.

Kimberly S.
“I’ve known Kimberly for close to 5 years now and I highly recommend her. She is dependable and trustworthy. I’ve used her every time I travel to house sit and watch over my pre teen kids. She has picked them up from school and done the afternoon activity circuit for them as well as made dinner and help with homework. My girls love her and my husband and I feel safe knowing she will look after things while we are gone.”
