About: Working with animals had always been a passion of mine. I've been a pet owner of all kinds from furry to scaly my whole life. With 17 years+ of professional dog care experience, 15+ years of cat care experience, 10+ years of dog training experience, an Associates Degree in Veterinary Technology and I've been certified in both k-9 and feline CPR. I've always juggled a pretty random schedule as I'm both a night and a morning person at different times. I do however thrive on scheduling my routine. So fitting your pet's needs in any time of day or night is no problem. I am a bully breed, shy pet, LGBTQIA+, BLM, marijuana patient friendly dog trainer and pet caretaker with 25+ years experience of pet ownership, 15+ years of professional pet care experience, have an associates degree in vet technology, and am trained in k-9 and feline CPR. I live with my 2 very social cats and bearded dragon in a garden style apartment with two outdoor dog yards. I also have lots of experience and I'm very comfortable with working with pets in their own homes. I am very patient and work very well with shy pets. Keeping pets safe and making them feel comfortable is always my priority.

About: I grew up with cats and dogs. My first experiences with pet sitting were with family dogs as a teenager when my parents would go out of town. I have also been the go-to pet sitter for several families over the last 10 years. I don’t have any pets of my own, but I’m lucky to still get to love the animals in my life as a pet auntie! Some of my experience includes full-time dog-sitting for 2 senior, miniature dogs belonging to some family friends over 2 weeks. The older dog had some health issues that I attended to. I then became that family’s go-to dog sitter up until both dogs passed on. I currently am the go-to cat sitter for a few of my closest friends. I love when their cats come to greet me at the door and I know they are happy to see me when they are missing their parents. My goal is always to take the most appropriate safety measures for each individual pet and to give them the best care possible. I currently work a 9-5 from home, so there is a bit of flexibility there. I am free before and after work, as well as on the weekends. I will be sure to carefully follow instructions and communicate as much as you need about how your pet is doing. I can put your dog in a crate at night and I also have no problem with them being on my furniture. I will enforce the boundaries that you ask of me. If I am caring for a dog, they will go outside to potty depending on their needs, as much or as little as they need. As a standard, I would likely prompt them to go potty once every 4 hours. I would make sure that a cat’s litter box and the surrounding area stays clean. Water will be refilled two times daily or as needed. Feeding will be based on individual needs. Playtime is a must for animals who like to play! Same goes with cuddles!

About: I have about 10 years of caring for pets, from cats, dogs and even rodents! I also have experience in giving vaccines and pills to animals. I have fostered and rescued animals over the years, I know how to care for new born puppies/kittens. I am currently working part time and doing online school part time. I have plenty of time to help with your pets, whether it’s walking or staying over night with them! I have 1 dog and 2 cats. I live with my parents at the moment, they have 2 dogs and a cat, it’s a very busy home! All the animals get along with each other, and are always excited for new friends.

About: Dogs are my absolute favorite. I’ve always had dogs ever since I could remember Professionally, I’ve been taking care of them for 15yrs. I can’t wait to meet you guys! So as luck would have it, I work independently and have a flexible schedule, so I’m able to work with your pup’s needs and schedule. I have a fenced yard and two fur babies of my own to keep your pup company. I can easily crate your pup if need be.

“Felicia did a great job checking in on our cat and loving on her while we were out of town. She checked in with us via text every day and sent us pictures. Would recommend her to others, she is a caring and professional sitter!”


About: Hi! My name is Kale. I love all pets as my own, they are my #1 priority! I enjoy hiking and walks in my personal life, so I am more than happy to share that with your pet. It can be challenging to juggle life and work, all while still giving your furry friend the attention they deserve. I'm looking to help alleviate your worries and give your best friend an enriching experience, along with piece of mind for you. I'll admit this is selfishly motivated-i love pets of all kinds! I have experience in house-sitting, dog and cat sitting, grooming, and volunteer work in shelters. I keep my personal life flexible to make sure no one is left with their furry legs crossed. Looking forward to meeting your fur babies! I am available through the week, Monday evening- Friday morning for any needs your pet(s) may have. This includes daytime and overnight as needed. During these times I am off from my regular job and have the extra time and availability to help others with their furry friends. I will make sure your pet is feeling safe and comfortable, as well as following their normal daily routines you have already implemented with them in their own environment

About: I’ve been raise by dogs since 2, little do you know it your dog is your little human to. So why not treat them like one💗 I’m currently working a part time job currently working on pet grooming. Pet care is just as important of my daily routine and care thank you. I have a huge front wooden area any pet would love. I also have pretty windows your little bestie couldnt dare not look out of.

About: Growing up from an early age my family and I have always had dogs and cats. The first dog I was around consistently was my grandmothers, Buddy. I loved her with all my heart as a child and followed her around constantly. When I was young I got my first cat Oscar. He was a calm but talkative orange tabby. My mother then got Adam to give Oscar a friend. My first dog I got from a local shelter, Lulu. Over the years I had a few more. A newfoundland Bernie who would wait patiently at the water bowl for the cats to be done. Norman, a black cat who had an old man meow. A German Shepard mix, Guthrie who was a ball of energy from day one, and 2 dachshund mixes, Joe and Axle who look completely different from each other but follow each other everywhere. After moving out of my mother's house eight years ago I slowly kept taking in cats, currently with four, Charles, Maddie, Dexter, and Luna. I firmly believe having pets to love is one of the best parts in life. I currently work full time on a split second/third shift job but am looking at schooling for a trade. I have three days off a week where I do most around the house and garden. Mornings and early afternoons are always available for me. I have a four foot high fenced in yard, chain link with a latch for any dogs I may be watching as well as tons of cat toys and a new 6 foot cat tree.

“Danielle did a wonderful job with my two pups! It was the first time for my very timid large dog to have a sitter and he took to her immediately. She sent me updates with pictures at each visit and perfectly followed all my instructions. She even cleaned up my kitchen! I would definitely book her again.”


About: Always take care of family's pets when away and when needed very good with handling and taking care in any type of situation with all dogs. I have school Mon-Friday and done at 2 each day, need time work gym and homework after but very flexible with my time as long as communicated Feed and water, walks and take them to outside when needed and long walks for exercise and for quality time with the pet and in general.

About: Canines have been an addition to our families for many years. I am filled will joy, loving on the pups! What a great blessing they have been! I am self employed. I get to choose my schedule, so flexible is an understatement. Always make tike for the things things you love, right? Animals that are house trained can free roam unless owner requests otherwise. I do not have, but will be building a fence in the spring! 🫶🙌
