About: I've loved animals my whole life. I've raised puppies and cared for senior dogs and everything in-between. I enjoy volunteering as a pet transporter for animal rescues. I own my own cleaning business. So pet sitting fits into my schedule perfectly. Some homes I clean and pet sit for as well. I love what I do. I have 5 senior cats so I prefer to care for pets in their own homes. I'm always working in different towns so this works best for me. I am trustworthy and have references.

About: Ever since I can remember, I have always been around and loved animals. I’ve had many pets growing up but currently we have a male 15 year old chihuahua named Taz and a male 4 year old Aussie named Renfield. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. Our home is fenced in and we live in a quiet neighborhood on a dead end road. With my job, I work from home. My husband is home as well. We both have flexible schedules that would allow us time to incorporate pet care into our schedule. We live on a dead endroad. In a small, quiet neighborhood outside of the city. Our yard is fenced in with plenty of room for any fur baby.

Olivia has done multiple drop in visits for me and my dogs while we are in town for hurricane relief work. We currently stay in a hotel about an hour away from work and work from the early morning till evening time. Olivia’s drop in visits has given us peace of mind knowing our dogs get to go potty, get a drink of water, and have a treat when she gets there in the middle of the day. We are so thankful we found a sitter that has been understanding, responsive, and flexible throughout the whole process. We are just sad we will be moving on to a different city soon and will have to find a different sitter. Thank you Olivia for all you have done for us!

About: I connect deeply with animals. It brings me joy to protect their health/safety and to ensure they feel loved and engaged. Additionally, I have gone through the American Kennel Club Canine Good Citizen Training with my adopted sweet baby angel Mali. I work for myself part-time as a handylady and do furniture restoration. I also work for a local nonprofit that creates household items and furniture out of bamboo. My schedule is flexible in order to meet the needs of you and your pets :)) At your home, I will be hyper aware of environmental dangers. I am well-versed in how to create and maintain a healthy and safe environment for animals.

About: I would humbly refrain from making the statement that I am better than my counterparts, as that is not for me to judge. I will say that I am an incredibly caring and empathetic individual, and that translates well to how I operate animals as well as people. I grew up with dogs and cats inside of my home, and I was always very attentive to them in terms of playing, petting, feeding, and making them feel cared for. My experience as a sitter only spans about a year altogether, but as a mother of human children, I understand the responsibility that comes with monitoring and caring for any member of someone else’s family. Animals are never excluded in that💙 I have two children, one of which is in daycare and the other in grade school. During the summer months, my availability would be from 7AM to 5PM, as I’d have to pick my youngest up from daycare by 5:30PM. From August to May, my availability would be 7:30AM - 5PM, as this would grant me time to drop my oldest off to school before beginning a day’s work. At the moment, I can only offer care in the home of clients, as my landlord does not allow pets to be present on the premises. Having said this, I am flexible in the number of services I am willing to offer in the home of clients. I want each individual to feel confident in the care their pet is receiving while they are away. I will do what I can to ensure this is the case 💙

About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. I understand that it’s important to follow the rules and be safe. I know that you want your fur babies taken care of a certain way, which is exactly what I do. I have experience with all sizes of dogs and a lot of different breeds. I enjoy playing and being outside with my pet. I know I would want my fur baby to be taken care of if I wasn’t home to do so, and that’s what I want to do is to ensure you that your fur baby is in good hands and getting the care and attention they need and deserve! I work a full time job during the week 7-3. After 3 I am available to come and spend time with your pups and fur babies! I make sure to leave everything in the home better than what I left it. I make sure all doors are locked when leaving, I make sure fence doors are shut before letting dog out if that’s what the owner wants. I always double check everything before leaving and follow any and all rules for whoever’s house I am dropping in at.

About: I’ve been caring for pets my whole life, and nothing makes me happier than making sure they feel safe, loved, and entertained! Whether it’s playtime, belly rubs, or a cozy nap, I always cater to each pet’s unique needs. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to sweet senior pups who need extra TLC. I understand that every pet is family, and I treat them like my own. Whether your pet needs exercise, companionship, or just someone to spoil them while you’re away, I’m here to help! I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide reliable and attentive care for pets throughout the day. Whether your pet needs a morning walk, midday playtime, or evening cuddles, I can easily adjust to their routine. My availability varies, but I always make sure to prioritize the pets in my care, giving them the time and attention they deserve! I make sure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for, whether in my home or theirs. In a client’s home, I follow their routine closely to keep their pet happy and at ease. This includes regular feeding, exercise, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. If your pet stays with me, they’ll have two friendly dogs to keep them company, as well as a safe and welcoming environment. I also have a crate available if needed. My goal is to provide an stress-free, loving experience for every pet.

About: With a background in caring for dogs from a family breeder, I understand the unique needs of puppies and adult dogs alike. I’ve helped raise litters, manage feeding schedules, and ensure safe socialization in a home environment. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, grooming, or adhering to specific routines, I prioritize your pet’s health, happiness, and comfort. What I Offer: ✔️ Breeder-Level Care: Experience with puppies, including crate training, potty routines, and early socialization. ✔️ Tailored Attention: Comfortable following detailed care instructions (diet, exercise, medications). ✔️ Safe & Loving Environment: Your dog’s well-being is my top priority—no detail is overlooked! I’m passionate about treating every pet like family and providing updates so you’re always in the loop. Let’s chat about how I can support your furry friend! My availability for pet care is centered around my days off—Thursday through Saturday—where I provide dedicated, all-day support for walks, playtime, or overnight stays. While I typically work overnight shifts Sunday through Wednesday (7:30 PM–6:00 AM), I can also accommodate flexible Sunday bookings before my shift begins, such as morning walks or midday check-ins. This schedule allows me to prioritize your pet’s needs with undivided attention during my free days, ensuring they receive consistent care and companionship. Having worked with family breeders, I understand the importance of routine and am committed to tailoring visits to your pet’s unique schedule, whether it’s a quick potty break or a weekend-long adventure! As a devoted pet mom to two pitbulls, I understand the importance of routine, safety, and personalized attention. In my own home, I prioritize structured feeding times, daily exercise tailored to energy levels, and crate training (if needed), all while fostering a calm, loving environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I mirror this approach by respecting their space and routines—whether it’s sticking to specific diets, administering medications, or maintaining play and walk schedules. My experience with strong, energetic breeds like pitbulls has taught me to read body language carefully, ensure secure environments, and provide patient, positive reinforcement. I treat every home with the same care as my own, sending regular updates and photos so you feel connected while you’re away. Your pet’s comfort and trust are my top priorities, no matter where we are!

When it comes to caring for your pet, I promise to give it the same love and affection. I will provide plenty of treats, and of course plenty of hugs and kisses. Your pet is welcome on my furniture, and they'll always receive a warm welcome. I accept same day and last min bookings! I have plenty of time for your pets with an open schedule.

About: I’ve taken care cats, dogs, and birds since I’ve been about 3 years old. I am currently a vet technician and I have 2 dogs and fours cats. They all get along together. I have a 60lbs husky and a 8lbs chiweenie who get along great and loves cats. I do offer nail trims and baths as well. I am very good at nail trims. Many people have relied on me to care for their animals. I have worked in professional places that do both animal care and boarding. I know the signs to look out for if needed. I have been medicating dogs and cats for the past three years. If any emergency was to rise then I know exactly where both emergency clinics are. I know that you’ll get the best care for your baby and that you’ll get updates daily from them. I’ll let you know how they are doing everyday, you’ll get a picture of them so you’ll be able to see for yourself that they’re having a blast. I work Monday- Friday 8-5. I get a lunch break from 12-1, and go home to let my dogs out to potty and get a little exercise before heading back to work for 1:30. I get off at 5 and go home and take care of my pets. I feed them all and of course let them out to go potty and get some exercise. I am off on the weekends, and I stay at home so it wouldn’t no problem to have a few fur babies over. I don’t have a new fence quite yet but I do walk the dogs frequently and let them play together inside and outside ,I have two dogs, two husky mixes who loves to play with other doggie. They both do get along with cats as I have 4 and my fourth one and my husky are absolutely the best of friends. I can go to a home if need be. I am vet technician. So I am well equipped to handle any kind of emergency situation. If your baby needs daily medications I know all the ways to give it safely. I am very good with nervous babies. I make sure that any pet that I watch does have their vaccines. If a Pet doesn’t have their vaccines then I will not watch them with other dogs. It would have to be in their home instead. I want to make sure everyone is safe. I do offer baths, and nail trims as well. I also offer a bit of grooming. Nothing professional but I can do simple trims, etc.

I currently povide poppin services for the elderly and new mothers on top of caring for animals.

Hope is incredible with animals. She has an innate quality that draws them to her. She has extensive experience as a vet tech, and she cares for other people’s pets as if they were her own. Her experience combined with her love of all animals would make her an exceptional pet sitter. I trust her wholeheartedly with my fur babies.

About: I’ve been caring for pets my whole life, and nothing makes me happier than making sure they feel safe, loved, and entertained! Whether it’s playtime, belly rubs, or a cozy nap, I always cater to each pet’s unique needs. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to sweet senior pups who need extra TLC. I understand that every pet is family, and I treat them like my own. Whether your pet needs exercise, companionship, or just someone to spoil them while you’re away, I’m here to help! I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide reliable and attentive care for pets throughout the day. Whether your pet needs a morning walk, midday playtime, or evening cuddles, I can easily adjust to their routine. My availability varies, but I always make sure to prioritize the pets in my care, giving them the time and attention they deserve! I make sure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for, whether in my home or theirs. In a client’s home, I follow their routine closely to keep their pet happy and at ease. This includes regular feeding, exercise, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. If your pet stays with me, they’ll have two friendly dogs to keep them company, as well as a safe and welcoming environment. I also have a crate available if needed. My goal is to provide an stress-free, loving experience for every pet.

About: With a background in caring for dogs from a family breeder, I understand the unique needs of puppies and adult dogs alike. I’ve helped raise litters, manage feeding schedules, and ensure safe socialization in a home environment. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, grooming, or adhering to specific routines, I prioritize your pet’s health, happiness, and comfort. What I Offer: ✔️ Breeder-Level Care: Experience with puppies, including crate training, potty routines, and early socialization. ✔️ Tailored Attention: Comfortable following detailed care instructions (diet, exercise, medications). ✔️ Safe & Loving Environment: Your dog’s well-being is my top priority—no detail is overlooked! I’m passionate about treating every pet like family and providing updates so you’re always in the loop. Let’s chat about how I can support your furry friend! My availability for pet care is centered around my days off—Thursday through Saturday—where I provide dedicated, all-day support for walks, playtime, or overnight stays. While I typically work overnight shifts Sunday through Wednesday (7:30 PM–6:00 AM), I can also accommodate flexible Sunday bookings before my shift begins, such as morning walks or midday check-ins. This schedule allows me to prioritize your pet’s needs with undivided attention during my free days, ensuring they receive consistent care and companionship. Having worked with family breeders, I understand the importance of routine and am committed to tailoring visits to your pet’s unique schedule, whether it’s a quick potty break or a weekend-long adventure! As a devoted pet mom to two pitbulls, I understand the importance of routine, safety, and personalized attention. In my own home, I prioritize structured feeding times, daily exercise tailored to energy levels, and crate training (if needed), all while fostering a calm, loving environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I mirror this approach by respecting their space and routines—whether it’s sticking to specific diets, administering medications, or maintaining play and walk schedules. My experience with strong, energetic breeds like pitbulls has taught me to read body language carefully, ensure secure environments, and provide patient, positive reinforcement. I treat every home with the same care as my own, sending regular updates and photos so you feel connected while you’re away. Your pet’s comfort and trust are my top priorities, no matter where we are!

About: I have been around animals my entire life. Pets are like family and should be treated accordingly. I grew up with two adorable Winnie dogs named Brownie and Tootie, as well as two precious cats named Mr. Beans and Rosie. I treated them all as my babies and cherished them dearly. When it comes to caring for your pet, I promise to give it the same love and affection. I will provide plenty of treats, and of course plenty of hugs and kisses. Your pet is welcome on my furniture, and they'll always receive a warm welcome. I accept same day and last min bookings! I have plenty of time for your pets with an open schedule. My schedule is open all hours for your needs. I also have my phone on me at all times. I have a crate if needed and lots of toys and treats to provide as well as attention and love. You’re in good hands with me!

Victoria was great with very anxious terrier mix. Normally my dog doesn’t trust but Victoria managed to earn her trust pretty quickly. I brought her to Victoria for a weekend and when I came to pick her up she was so clean and happy. I was pleasantly surprised that she was able to cut my dogs nails! I haven’t been able to bring my dog to a traditional boarders due to her anxiety, so this was an amazing alternative.
