“I appreciate you so much.Thank you for taking great care of my babies. Upon returning home, everyone was sleeping, possibly due to the cool air conditioning in the garage, which was set at a comfortable 69 degrees. I have applied medication between Shaggy's pads, as he tends to experience this issue intermittently during the summer. Thank you for letting me know and for all the great photos. Thank you again-You are amazing 💕”


“Unexpected out of town trip left us scrambling to find care for Slade. Rebecca came over to meet us the same day and provided excellent care for Slade.”


“Amber did a phenomenal job with our cat Mila.Our actual sitter cancelled on us for thanksgiving last second and Amber was able to accommodate Mila for drop ins. She went above and beyond for her care. Mila is an anxious one and we found TV on with some animal sounds to keep her company while we were gone. Definitely recommend!”


About: I have cared for animals my entire life. I have experience with puppies, reactive dogs, aggressive dogs, and senior dogs. I have cared for dogs pre and post-operations. I have experience potty training, crate training, and leash training. I am comfortable administering medications and giving injections. Similarly I have experience with cats of all ages and temperaments, including cats with special medical needs. Extra experience includes horses, goats, cows, and chickens, which I have spent extensive time around since my childhood. My upbringing on a farm taught me a great deal about animal care, responsibility, and hard work. Animals were the central part of chores and daily tasks growing up. I learned about how intuitive animals are and how they respond to and feel the energy of humans. I am a Registered Nurse, and the same qualities that make me an excellent nurse make me an excellent animal caretaker. I am sensitive and in tune with the needs of people and animals, I am responsible and prioritize safety, I am calm in a crisis, and I am trustworthy. If this bio seems long it’s only because I know it is a BIG deal to trust another person with the care of your beloved animals and your home. I want you to know I will treat your animals as my own, and I will do whatever is needed to make sure you are comfortable and at ease with the arrangement. I’m currently taking a break from full-time nursing work so that I can travel and have some respite from the healthcare field. One of the ways I fill my cup is by spending time with animals, and I would love to be someone you can trust to be with your pets when they need reliable and loving care. My greatest priority is the safety of your animals and following any instructions that you require for their care. I know how important it is to have peace of mind when someone else is caring for your animals and I would want to know exactly how to meet your needs and theirs. You know your pet best, and I want to understand all your pets little quirks and characteristics!

About: My abilities include understanding a dog’s needs, which I leverage when walking dogs, particularly athletic breeds. They require extensive travel and the ability to open their gates when they run, which is where I excel. Unlike most humans who tire easily or lack control over large breeds, I thrive in these situations. I’m not sure why I don’t get exhausted, but my military background, extreme sports experience in my youth, or perhaps how I take dogs on rides with my electric skateboard, all contribute to ensuring that your dogs will tire out. I’m always available to walk dogs, regardless of the weather conditions. It’s simply what I do. I walk my own dogs at least three times a day, without fail, regardless of the weather or my mood. Sick days are not a part of my routine. We don’t call them Fur-Babies for nothing. These dogs live the good life, with everything they need. We have two dogs who live here permanently, but it’s not uncommon for us to have four dogs here on a regular basis. We have all the amenities they need, including love, attention, water, food, play, treats, beds, grass, shade, crates, cuddles, AND its not uncommon for myself to break out in a dance and music session, which all dogs seem to enjoy! We also have several ways to separate dogs from each other if necessary as a last resort. Every new dog receives my full attention until we complete the bonding and trust stage, before I release them into a social situation with other dogs.

About: I have been petsitting for neighbors since my freshman year of highschool. I still currently pet sit for neighbors when they need me. I have three lady’s who contact me very often to pet sit for them I was currently full time but I am unemployed at the moment looking for others jobs! I’m hoping this will help me out and let me enjoy spending time with animals till I can get another job that’s part time When I pet sit for others I try and hangout with the dog as much as possible! I give them treats when they are sad to make them happy! I take them on walks and give them as many pets as I can

“I recently hired Dalia to take care of my pet while I was away, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the service. From the moment we first met, it was clear that she is a genuine animal lover with an incredible level of professionalism and care. My dog instantly felt comfortable around her, which gave me a lot of confidence. Dalia sent daily updates, including photos and little notes about how my pet was doing, which really put my mind at ease. I appreciated the attention to detail, like ensuring my pet stuck to their feeding schedule and even going the extra mile by playing with her. When I returned, my dog was happy and calm, which is a testament to how well they were cared for. I highly recommend Dalia for anyone looking for a trustworthy, responsible, and caring pet sitter. I’ll definitely be booking her again for future trips! Thank you so much, Dalia”


“Our senior dogs require special care and Sara was the person for the job! With a senior dog herself she was able to administer meds as needed and care for pups like they were her own! Great communication and we appreciated all the pics while we were traveling. Thank you Sara! 🐾”


About: I have owned pets of all types; turtles and dogs have been primary pets most of my life. I have experience owning and loving cats, dogs, snakes, turtles, chickens and guinea pigs. In June of 2025 my beloved Maggie girl crossed the rainbow bridge. Although I am not ready to give my heart to a new puppy I recognize that my family still has so much love to offer and our little Yoshi (dog) would love another friend to play with. I have experience with puppies all the way to senior dogs who may require medication. I currently work part-time so I have an ample amount of time for walks, fetch and snuggles. Walks are provided in the morning or evening dependent on temperature and needs of the dog. I have a fenced yard. We can provide a crate from small to large sized if needed, toys, bowls, additional leashes. Anything to make your pets experience more enjoyable. Our youngest child is 9 and oldest is 15 so no small children to worry about as they have grown up with pets their entire lives.

“Kristen was fantastic. She has dogs of her own and knows how to care for the dog. Sasha was a new to us puppy and this was the first time we left her at home. Kristen took Sasha for walks and comforted her. Kristen kept us updated on Sasha's status for each visit so we knew that our dog was in good care. We will definitely use Kristen again and I would recommend her to do drop-ins.”


About: I am a seasoned pet sitter, and have worked with all different breeds including small babies and pitbulls! I am a recent graduate looking to make some extra cash while I am pursuing my career in social work. I will always treat your babies like my own, AND keep you updated with plenty of pictures! I am currently volunteering and partaking with a sober support group designed to help at risk youth. I attend meetings two nights a week and occasionally take day meetings as I am needed.

About: *Administer Medication, Injections, and Fluids *Beautiful walking trails nearby for boarding clients *Big backyard for outdoor play Hello! My name is Sarah, and I’m a former veterinary technician with experience administering medications, including injections and fluids. I’ve spent years around animals—growing up on a cattle ranch gave me hands-on experience with dogs, cats, cattle, horses, and even emus! While working at a veterinary clinic, I assisted the vet during appointments and surgeries and provided care to both day and overnight boarders. I love all dogs—big, small, drooly, relaxed, and energetic—and I’m happy to accommodate their unique personalities and needs. I also offer a free meet-and-greet so you and your dog(s) can get to know me before booking. For overnight stays, please bring your dog’s food and a favorite toy, bed, or blanket. I highly recommend bringing their usual food to avoid any tummy issues, but if needed, I can provide GI-sensitive food. Feel free to reach out anytime to learn more about me and how I can care for your pets. Thank you for considering me for your pet care needs! I work part-time, which gives me a lot of flexibility in my schedule. This allows me to dedicate time each day to caring for pets, whether it’s for walks, drop-in visits, or overnight stays at my house. I truly enjoy spending time with animals, so pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or my client’s, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow any specific instructions closely, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, medication, and preferred routines. In my home, pets have a cozy, clean environment with plenty of playtime and attention. In a client’s home, I treat the space with respect and aim to keep their pet’s routine as normal as possible to reduce stress. My goal is to provide dependable, compassionate care so both pets and their owners feel at ease.

About: I’ve owned pets my whole life from rodents to reptiles and fish to cats and dogs all ages. I’ve also been pet sitting for as long as I can remember and I have great references! My schedule is very flexible I can come care for your pets multiple times a day or night. I can also stay with them overnight if needed. I can provide quick communication and pet updates including pictures. I prioritize safety and comfort for your pets. Feel free to contact me any time.

Megan S.
“Megan is very responsible, calm and focused. She knows how to handle large exuberant dogs: huskies, German shepherds, Australian cattle dogs as well as small but strong willed Jack Russell terriers. She is able to protect them on a walk as well as in a dog park. She has my highest recommendation.”


Michael F.
“Michael has been walking my Holden for a number of years now, he is reliable and maintains a schedule to ensure the best possible behavior and in any weather, rain or snow. He cares for Holden as he does his own dog, and is vigilant checking if Holden is in the best of health. He thinks about the hot summers keeping their paws cool, and in winter keeping them warm - putting on booties if too cold. If Holden needs extra training for dealing with different circumstances he will work closely with him to improve any anxiety or behavioral issues. Michael is a very caring and thoughtful caregiver and has provided additional help like vet drop off or pickup, feeding and providing medication when needed. Holden now gets to enjoy running alongside Michael on his electric board taking him to the next level. If you have a dog that needs someone who will love them like you do, provide more exercise or just extra company I strongly recommend Michael's unique talents.”
