About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my extensive hands-on experience and deep passion for animal care. With over 8 years working in an animal shelter and now currently working in an aquarium, I bring a unique blend of knowledge and confidence in handling pets of all types and temperaments. I’m trained in administering both oral and injectable medications, but my skills go far beyond special needs care—I’m also great with active pups, shy cats, senior pets, and everything in between. I pay close attention to detail, maintain clear communication with pet parents, and truly treat every animal like my own. Pet care is a natural and meaningful part of my daily and weekly routine. Whether I’m starting my day with morning check-ins or ending it with evening walks and feedings, caring for animals is something I genuinely look forward to and build my schedule around. I plan my week to ensure I have plenty of time for personalized attention, whether it’s playtime, snuggles, or just making sure pets feel safe and loved while their owners are away. Because I’m already immersed in animal care through my job, providing pet sitting services feels like a seamless extension of what I love to do every day Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in my clients’ homes, their comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities. In my home, I create a calm and welcoming environment with plenty of space for play, rest, and routine. I stick closely to each pet’s normal schedule and habits to make the transition as stress-free as possible. When I care for pets in their own home, I’m respectful of their space and ensure their environment stays clean, familiar, and well-maintained. In both settings, I offer consistent attention, affection, and communication—making sure every pet feels secure, loved, and well-cared for, just like they would with their own family.
About: I've had furry friends before I could even walk, beginning to volunteer at St Francis Animal Shelter when I was only 10, so I'm used to taking care of all kinds of cases. I'm a freelance software dev and couried with a very open schedule, so I find pet care helps me stay active and outside! I mostly have the days and weekends available. I always ensure that the animals I'm caring for have everything they need from a clean area to eat or rest in to a fulfilling play session where they need a nap after!
“Dianna is very good with my senior dog who needs help getting up to go outside. She makes sure he has his potty breaks on time. She sends pics and updates during the visit so I know everything is good with my fur babies. I highly recommend her.”
About: I've had pets growing up, and consistently pet-sat for the last 4 years. My career (active duty military) doesn't allow me to have my own pets right now, but I'd love to provide services for you and yours! I’m in cyber training at Keesler AFB and work a normal 8-3 M-F with the occasional Friday off. Outside of work, I love long or short walks, pets are allowed on furniture in my house (unless you prefer not to!) , and there are no other pets in my house. I provide loving care depending on your specific pet. If lazy afternoons cuddling on the couch and getting belly scratches are needed, they will be provided. If you have a high energy dog, long walks, enrichment activities, and other play time is available as I am extremely active myself.
About: Hi, I’m Jessica! I’ve been around dogs and cats my entire life — I currently share my home with two long-haired Chihuahuas, Maya and Stella. I’m a lifelong animal lover with around 40 years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all sizes, including friends’ dogs I’ve walked and cared for regularly. Whether your pet needs a quick drop-in visit, a calm walk, or just some loving company while you're away, I provide safe, consistent, and compassionate care. I'm especially good with small to medium dogs and gentle large breeds — and I’m mindful of matching a dog’s energy and comfort level, not forcing interaction or stimulation they don’t want. I take pet safety seriously. As someone who has cared for both shy lapdogs and playful larger breeds, I know how important it is to respect boundaries, stick to routines, and ensure every pet feels safe, heard, and happy. *I’m available all day on weekends, and weekdays from 3 PM to 10 PM* I currently own two small dogs and have cared for pets my whole life. I incorporate pet care naturally into my day, making sure they get plenty of exercise, attention, and affection. Whether it’s a quick walk or drop-in visits, I’m reliable and flexible around your schedule. I treat every pet like family, ensuring a clean, safe environment whether in my home or yours. I follow all owner instructions carefully and remain attentive to pets’ needs and behavior. I’m mindful of their comfort and security and always prioritize their well-being.
About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life, combining deep love and hands-on experience to provide reliable, trustworthy pet care. Some critters I have cared for include, horses, dogs, cats, rabbits, and turtles. I treat every pet like family, ensuring their safety and happiness with patience and playful attention. You’ll always receive clear communication and regular updates so you can relax knowing your furry friend is in dependable, loving hands. I’m a full-time teacher, so I am able to check on your fur babies more during my holiday breaks. I would be able to check on your critter at any time during the day. While I am in school, I could care for them before work if needed and/or that afternoon/evening. Unfortunately, I am unable to provide any pet services at my own home. I have two dogs, a turtle, and two horses that take up a good bit of space. However, I am more than happy to stop by your home to help give you peace of mind about your critter(s) while you are away. I am more than willing to feed/water, bathe, walk, give medications, etc.
About: I have taken care of cats and dogs most of my life. I also used to work at a vet clinic as a kennel technician for 2 years. Right now I have 2 cats that are my own. I currently work full time 8:00-5:00 Monday thru Friday, however, I could always do a check-in around 12:00 to 1:00 pm for bathroom breaks or to give food/meds. For the cats that come in my home, I provide lots of toys, automatic feeder, water fountain, and robot litter box. I will also provide cuddles & treats ❤️
