Leviena went above and beyond to get to know our pups, especially Citra who has a very barky outer shell! We really appreciated that she took her time to get to know her so the pups would be more comfortable. Thank you so very much and the lovely photos were the icing on the cake!

Erika was great with my 8 year old shy dog! Her updates put me at ease knowing he was getting his medicine and being taken care of. Would definitely rebook with her in the future!

Kassidy was our first experience with a dog sitter and she was a great one! We are so happy to have found her. Our 4 month old puppy Pepper loved her right away and we hope to have many more meetups with her in the future!

I am just graduated from college so I am available throughout the week or weekends. I can start booking appointments after June 9th! This includes dog or cat pet sitting, dog walking, or overnights! I will come to your house to pet sit, dog walk, or stay for extended periods of time to ensure the happiness and safety for your pet. Whatever you and your pet need I will do. My utmost priority is your fur baby!

Hunter was great with my not-so-friendly cat. She was very punctual with her visits and sent great updates with pics of my cat. She even came during a snowstorm! Would definitely work with Hunter again and highly recommend her for reliable, caring pet sitting. Thanks Hunter!

About: I've grew up with dogs and have been responsible for taking care of them, including feeding, walking/running & playing/taking outside, bathing, and more. I have experience giving older dogs medicine, both orally and injections (especially insulin for diabetic dogs). One of my dogs developed hip dysplasia and cancer at her older age, so I am experienced with caring for senior dogs in need of extra attention. Additionally, I often pet sit for family and friends and am trusted to ensure not only their basic needs are met (clean water, food, bathroom breaks/walks), but also they receive attention and affection while their owners are away. I'm currently home for the summer as a college student and I'm unable to get a job with a set schedule because I have surgery coming up which takes a huge chunk out of my summer but I'm available for the entirety of June and first week of July. I can basically be free whenever needed, weekdays and weekends! Since I have cats at my house, I don't care for client's pets in my own home to minimize conflict. In clients homes I follow whatever rules laid out for their animals, ensuring they're fed at the proper intervals, always have clean water (and litter boxes if used). If applicable, I like to go outside with the pets to play with them and make sure they get needed stimulation. I take them on walks (and of course clean up after them), and runs when applicable. I also like to make sure the animals get lots affection (as long as approved by their owners) to make sure they're not lonely while away!

I am so happy I found Jenna! She did an amazing job looking after my kitty, so I was able to enjoy my holiday without worrying. She even did things I didn’t ask her to do, such as watering my plants. It was great to come home and find my pet happy and healthy and everything in good order. Highly recommended!!

Maylynn was so sweet but most of all I loved how my boys reacted to her. It let me know that she is a good person and that my cats were in good hands while I was away. She was on time for both drop in’s and even made sure to give them some playtime. I’ll definitely be using Maylynn again and recommend her to everyone.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of care, patience, and genuine love I bring to every pet I work with. I don’t just “watch” animals—I build trust with them and treat them like my own. My experience as a caregiver has really shaped how attentive and compassionate I am, especially when it comes to understanding different needs and personalities. I also have fostering experience, which has taught me how to work with pets who may be anxious, shy, or adjusting to new environments. Because of that, I’m very comfortable helping animals feel safe and supported. I have experience caring for both puppies and senior pets. With puppies, I can help reinforce basic training, routines, and positive behaviors. With senior pets, I’m extra gentle, patient, and attentive to things like mobility, medications, and comfort. Overall, I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and someone you can truly trust with your pet. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. I am unavailable mondays and Wednesdays but available all day on Saturday and Sunday. I can work after 4:30pm on Tuesday Thursday and Friday :) Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for pets in your home or stopping by for visits, I do everything I can to make the experience feel calm, consistent, and stress-free. In your home, I respect your space and follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible—including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and playtime. I make sure doors are secure, hazards are avoided, and your pet is always supervised and safe. I also keep you updated with messages and photos so you feel confident while you’re away. I’m very attentive to behavior and body language, which helps me quickly notice if something feels off. My background as a caregiver has made me especially detail-oriented, patient, and calm in any situation. Cleanliness is also very important to me—I keep feeding areas, litter boxes, and living spaces clean and comfortable at all times. Overall, I aim to create a safe, loving environment where your pet feels relaxed and cared for, and where you can have complete peace of mind.

About: Since I was a kid, I’ve had Guinea pigs, birds, cats, and now the dog mom to two wonderful dogs. Let me help ease your mind during days that are a bit hectic for you.

I can take care of your pet during my break, after 5pm or anytime on weekends. I will do my best to accommodate your schedule. I do my best to treat your pet as if it was my own and would like to keep the routine as normal as possible for them. Let me know if they have a favorite toy or a walking path they prefer.
