Khine was on time with drop in visits while I was away, and provided updated and photos of what she did while in my home. I didn’t expect her to even see my two extremely people-shy kitties, but lo and behold, there they were…peeking around the top of stairs on day 1 to see who was in their house. And by the end of the week, Khine was petting one of them. I would definitely use her again!

About: My JRT and I were a Certified Pet Therapy Team until his death, at age 17, in March 2025. I want to give and receive doggie energy and love until I am ready for a new full time companion. I am a retired professional working as a yoga instructor and End of Life Doula. I am experienced and comfortable with adult, senior, ill, and end of life doggy woggies. My schedule varies from week to week. On the weekends, I might take your dog to the mountains for outdoor adventure (or inside rest). Let me know your needs and I will try to make it work into my schedule. I prefer drop-ins, walks, or sleep-overs at our house. I have a doggie door for small dogs and a fully fenced back yard. I have a backpack and snuggly for those who like to be close. We are open to couch and bed surfing.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats since I was young, especially helping with my sister’s and friends pets over the years. I’m very comfortable feeding, walking, playing, and making sure pets feel safe and cared for. I’m patient, reliable, and treat every pet like they’re my own. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your animals, and I always make sure they get attention, love, and proper care. I’m available Friday evenings after 6 PM and all day Saturday and Sunday. During those times, I can give your pets my full attention, including walks, feeding, playtime, and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I always make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for at all times. I follow any specific instructions you provide, including feeding schedules, walks, and routines. I’m very attentive and patient, and I treat every pet like my own to make sure they feel secure and happy while you’re away.

About: I have dogsat for my neighbors growing up, have taken care of my own dogs while my parents were out of town, along with feeding, sitting, and taking my friends’ dogs out for frequent walks when needed. I've administered medication for dogs (pills for managing epilepsy) as well as shots for cats. I've learned to love all animals that come into my care, similar to how my mom and grandmother have operated. It would be a pleasure and privilege to bring my caretaking genes to your furry family! I also take care of birds. Let me hang out with your feathery friends! I live and work at home in Miami during the winter and spring-ish seasons and live and work across the western US. My schedule is fairly flexible throughout the week until April/May. I have lived with many animals in my lifetime, made mistakes and learned greatly from them, and fully prioritize love and safety to your animals. The beauty of living in Florida in the wintertime and the West in the summer is that taking dogs on walks in the sunshine is never a chore!

About: What sets me apart is the level of attention and care I provide. I keep a calm, clean home and limit the number of pets I board at one time so each pet gets plenty of individual attention. I focus on maintaining your pet’s normal routine, providing a low-stress environment, and keeping you updated with daily photos and check-ins. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for — not just watched. Because I work from home full time, your pet will receive plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship while you’re away. Plenty of outside time and cuddle time! When pets stay in my home, they’re treated like part of the family. I maintain a clean, calm environment and limit the number of pets I care for at one time so each animal receives plenty of attention. I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and bedtime. Because I work from home full time, pets are rarely left alone and receive consistent supervision and companionship. I also provide daily photo updates and check-ins for peace of mind. When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on maintaining consistency and comfort. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding routines, walks, medications if needed, and any household preferences. I’m respectful of your home and ensure your pet feels safe and relaxed while keeping you updated with photos and detailed check-ins after each visit.

About: I have four dogs from 10 pounds to 150 pounds, and I’ve had dogs my whole life! I love taking care of animals so much that I wanted to be a vet when I was younger. I’m working part time and going to school so I should have plenty of time to play with your dogs or cats! I have two days off a week, as well! I am happy to follow any instructions for your dog’s care, I know it’s not one size fits all! Please let me know of any special commands your dog has, and I’ll be sure to try and work on them with them!

I have an apartment for now and its warm and cozy, but there is a dog park around the corner from here and ill gladly walk him or her as long as we are scheduled.

Chelsea was a wonderful pet sitter for us while we were away on a camping trip. She arrived when scheduled, followed through with our requests, sent many photos, and provided exceptional communication when it came to updates and any problems. We came home and our kitties were well taken care, along with our home. Looking forward to our next trip knowing that we can have a reliable and responsible pet sitter available for our cats.

Kiley brought our 2 kittens out of their shell in no time. She seemed really in-tuned with their needs and was able to make them comfortable in the short time she was here. Our female kitten, Ember, is usually quite guarded so for her to be out playing the entire time says a lot. Thank you, Kiley for taking such great care of our kitties!

Carson saved the day! Our booking was last minute, due to unforeseen circumstances, while we were out of town and Carson stepped up and helped us out beautifully! Thor adored her and she took extra care to send pics and let us know how he was doing which gave us peace of mind until we returned. We look forward to hopefully having Carson spend more time with Thor.
