“If I could leave 10 stars then that would be my rating for Sandra! My dogs love her and they are very calm when she is around. It felt like I left my beloved animals with a family member. Thank you Sandra!”

About: I've been dog sitting for friends and family for several years and have grown very comfortable caring for dogs of all shapes, sizes, ages, and personalities. Spending time with dogs is something I genuinely enjoy, and I always make it a priority to ensure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. Whether it's going for walks, playing outside, providing companionship, sticking to a feeding schedule, or simply giving extra attention and affection, I'm happy to adapt to each pet's unique needs. As an active college athlete, I have plenty of energy for long walks and playtime, but I'm also patient and attentive with dogs who prefer a calmer environment. My goal is always to provide reliable care and give pet owners peace of mind knowing their pets are in good hands. Pet care is something I take seriously, and I have a schedule that allows me to provide plenty of attention and flexibility. I work part-time as a lifeguard, which gives me the ability to take breaks throughout the day to check on pets, take dogs for walks, provide potty breaks, feed pets, or attend to any other needs they may have. In addition, I am generally available during mornings, evenings, and overnight hours, allowing me to spend quality time with pets and make sure they receive the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. Whether your pet needs an active companion, a consistent routine, or simply someone to keep them company, I have the time and dedication to provide reliable, attentive care. My experience caring for pets comes from raising my own two rescue dogs. When my family first brought them home, they were nervous, hesitant around people, and not always easy to handle. Like many rescue animals, they needed time, patience, and consistency before they felt comfortable in their new environment. Over the years, I have helped them build confidence through daily routines, training, exercise, and plenty of love and attention. Watching them grow from uncertain rescue dogs into friendly, affectionate companions has taught me a great deal about animal care. It showed me that every pet has a unique personality and that building trust often takes patience and understanding. Today, caring for my dogs is a regular part of my life. I feed them a combination of wet and dry food twice a day, take them on walks throughout the day whenever my schedule allows, and make sure they get the exercise, attention, and affection they need to stay happy and healthy. One of my dogs also experiences seasonal allergies and requires medication during certain times of the year, so I am comfortable following care instructions and administering medications when needed. Because of these experiences, I understand the responsibility that comes with caring for someone else's pet. Whether a pet is energetic and playful, shy and reserved, young or old, I strive to provide a safe, comfortable environment where they feel secure, cared for, and loved while their owners are away.

“Shay was great! Our Cooper was well taken care of and she minded our house conscientiously. She even had to handle some curveballs our home threw at her and she handled it well. Would book again!”

“Lori was great. Our pup really seemed to like her. We had her stay overnight while we took a quick trip out of town and she made everything run smoothly. Gave updates while we were away and kept our home in order. We can’t thank you enough for the peace of mind while we were gone!”

About: Hi there! I have been a pet sitter since I was 14, with multi-species experience including: dogs, cats, chickens, hamsters, fish, turtles, and rabbits. I am a life long pet owner as well. I am in my 4th year of studying Animal Behavior, which feeds my interest in enrichment and proper welfare for all animals. I have experience with: • oral medication administration • pets with anxiety • grooming and nail trimming (*depends on your pet's temperament) • enrichment I am available for drop-in visits, walks, or pet-sittings. ***I do not offer boarding due to my own pet for the safety of all pets involved! I'm currently on break for the summer and have full availability during the week to stop in and take your pet for a walk or play session, or house sit for a longer period. I tend to stick to the instructions provided as to keep a normal routine for your pet. For a first time visit, I will get aquatinted with your pet and offer a treat if allowed. I will send photos of your pet when I arrive and leave to offer some peace of mind. For walks, I will take your dog on a stroll around the neighborhood so they can let out some energy and use the restroom, followed by a treat after returning home. Drop-ins are similar where the pet will be taken outside for the restroom if needed and have some playtime to let out some energy. For pet sitting jobs, I tend to ask more questions about your pet to get a better understanding of their needs as well as anything else that will need taken care of such as collecting the mail, or watering plants. No matter the species, each visit will include playing, treats, and lots of pets! When entering or leaving your home, I ensure that the key is placed in the correct spot (to prevent lockouts!) after locking to keep your pet and home safe.

“Samm was amazing with our animals! She sent updates and pictures every day she watched them. I was well assured that our animals were well taken care of. Definitely recommend her!”

“Andrew is amazing! We contacted him on short notice and he was super accommodating. We were very impressed at his quick communication and he sent pictures daily, which we appreciated. Highly recommended!”

About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give every dog.

I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone else, so I'll keep you updated with regular photos and messages, ensuring you have peace of mind while you're away.

“Matt was professional, thorough, and most importantly he made Denali feel comfortable while we were gone. He took the time to come over twice before our trip to meet Denali, which made it easier to leave knowing Denali was in good hands. He provided daily updates with pictures and left our house spotless. We’ll be using him again and would recommend Matt to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”

About: I’m a reliable and caring pet sitter who treats every animal like my own. I have always had pets growing up and I always help out my family and friends with taking care of their pets while they are away. I have experience with dogs, cats, puppies, and senior pets, including feeding, basic training, and giving medications. What sets me apart is my patience and attention to each pet’s needs, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I work in retail, so I can take care of your pets in the mornings and evenings. Occasionally, I’ll get off work in the early afternoon, so I’m also available in the afternoons. I’m quite adept at following instructions. If I ever have questions, I make sure to ask them instead of doing something and not knowing if it’s right or wrong.

“Gennah was such a blessing. Chloe loved her. She is fun, dependable, polite and very responsible. We’ll use her again.”

About: In Kindergarten, my family got our first puppy. Her name was Daisy and she is my guardian angel. We grew up together, we played together, I learned the responsibilities, better yet I discovered my natural connection with animals. I nurtured her when we were scared of storms and picked her up going upstairs during her senior years. Years later our family got another puppy named Mowgli and he is my pal. Raising him was a different task and experience but he turned out to be a great partner. We run, fetch, catch and of course clean and bathe often. I have dog sit and walked for neighbors and family. It would be amazing to get to know your pup! Currently working part time so very flexible. Hoping to have more time to assist in pet needs and get to know some new furry friends. Backyard has a fence and house has a few floors to play. If preferred or allowed, sure don’t mind pets in the bed or couch.

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have experienced all kinds of different ages, breeds, and sizes!! I have also watched friends, family, and neighbors pets who have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and care for them while they were away. I strive to provide attentive, loving care so both pets and owners feel comfortable and confident. Pet care would take up most of my time in daily or weekly routines! I am a student who is looking to help over the summer so I am pretty flexible!! Although I may be working two days of the week in the morning. Overall, I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting on weekdays, evenings, and weekends. I love staying active and spending time with animals, so your pet will receive lots of attention, exercise, and care. In previous homes I have taken dogs out on the leash to go to the bathroom as well as take them on walks. I have also had a mixture of some who like to sleep in a crate or in the bed with me. At my house my dogs have a little fenced in area to go to the bathroom where I pick up after them and they sleep in crates!! So I have had a lot of experience acclimating to whatever different a needs the pets have!! I provide a calm, loving environment where pets can feel secure and cared for. I always keep owners updated with messages and photos, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether caring for your pet in my home or yours, I strive to create a safe, stress-free experience for both you and your pet!!
