About: I have taken care of all types of pets, big and small. I’ve worked for a doggy day care and boarding institute where I’ve met so many different personalities. pet care has always been part of my daily routine seeing as though I own 9 dogs and 6 cats. Every morning I wake up and tend to the animals to make sure they have all that they need. I will make sure that no matter what the pet has whatever they need. My first priority is to make sure the animal is 100% taken care of both physically and mentally.

About: I've owned dogs my whole life, I know the pain of loosing a furry companion. But all of that learning in my life has taught me that we don't deserve pets, they love us, unconditionally. So let's do the same! I am open all summer! I can definitely make time overnight on the weekdays and weekends! I don't mind staying late with your pups or cats! I care for them as if they were my own, you can't force a dog to like or trust you. You have to earn that trust, once you do, it's beautiful.

About: I've taken care of large and small animals all my life, I grew up taking care of my aunt's horses with her, and I've pet sat and house sat for the past couple of years and have been very successful. I can only do this during the summer though because I am a current college student. I am currently looking for a part-time job, I will always be available on the weekends and I should be available in the mornings and late mornings almost every day. I have a big fenced-in backyard, and I own two friendly dogs and an indoor-outdoor cat that stays away from most people and other dogs who come to visit so there is no worry about him if you're worried about your animal around cats.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats as long as I can remember. I love working with animals. I care for all their nutrition needs and I love on them as they want. My work schedule is pretty flexible, I have more availability during the day, but mind stopping later at night if that means I can care for them! Weekends will vary, but I’m happy to help if you reach out earlier in the week and I’ll be more likely to be available! I prefer to meet animals before my first visit especially dogs. I am available to feed and clean up and change litter boxes as needed! I am happy to play with them and I’m available to stay longer per a visit by case to case discussion!

She followed the protocol left for her with no problems at all. I highly recommend her and will look to connect with her again. Thanks Kristen!”


About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a kid. From hand nursing, administration of medicine, to helping them recover after surgery. I love and respect animals and their owners. I want to provide any service I can to make a pet or owner’s day easier! I work part time from 2-6 on week days. Other than those hours, I will be able to commit every moment to your pups or cats. I have a fenced yard that is big enough for running laps, trees and plants to smell, and plenty of squirrels to entertain your dog. I have two loving pups of my own, a black lab and a 40lb rescue mixed breed. I can let them socialize or keep them separated up to your standards. My home is baby proofed for a 2 year old, so the dog can not get into anything that a toddler can’t! I have a large size crate available in my home for your convenience.

I will also wash, groom, cut nails and give medicine if needed. I’ve worked with and lived with dogs and horses my entire life. I’ve worked a vets office for awhile. I have always loved caring for animals. I've watched many family friends dogs including their farm animals for weeks at the time. I will also watch over farm animals as well I treat every animal like it is my own. I’m currently a full time overnight employee, I would still be able to care for any pets that you have.

About: I've worked in a nursing home and coached youth camps throughout my young adult years. I grew up with dogs and I now have two of my own; a 3 year old mini-cockerpoo, who is very playful, friendly, and submissive, and a 1 yr old Australian-labradoodle. I live an active lifestyle and am very affectionate so you can find us at the dog park, on walks/runs, or all cuddled up together. I am available for services every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, usually with 3 days notice. I am very active and like to bring my own dogs to the dog park almost daily, so I aim to prioritize and maximize their activity needs. I live in a house with long leash extensions for my dogs to play in our spacious yard (working on a fence soon). I aim to take them to the dog park daily and they are very playful, friendly, submissive, active, and cuddly so I can take him on both the small and big dog side. I am very engaging, energetic, loving, and caring so I like to give my all to the dogs and create a fun and safe environment for them to exert all their energy and cozy up to me when they’ve got nothing left.

About: “Dogs do speak, but only to those who know how to listen.” Ever since I was 2 years old I’ve had at least one dog in my house. I always found it odd I would rather be in the presence of animals instead of my fellow human beings. I’ve owned dogs anywhere from chihuahuas to pit bulls over the course of my 32 years of existence, all of which I loved dearly and miss so much. Theres no size or age of dog I would not be able to handle and care for. I understand how stressful and anxiety inducing it may be to leave your animal while you go on vacation. Allow me to care for your baby and keep their tail wagging as if it were my own! I currently have no obligations other than making sure your animal is properly cared for and loved while you are away from home. If your animal requires daily walks for however many miles or if they would rather relax and cuddle on the couch then we will do that. Whatever is “normal” for your dog, rest assured I will meet them there. There is no task I couldn’t handle or would not do for your baby. I’m of the belief that once you’ve had a wonderful dog, a life without one is a life diminished. Allow me to care for your wonderful dog while you are away. Safety and trust is most important. I like to keep schedule routine as much as possible. For example, if you crate your animal at night at 8pm and that’s what you would like for your animal while you are away then I will make sure I keep their schedule as much as possible while their parents are away. I am very quick to respond on my phone by either text or call. Again, I know it’s stressful leaving animals at home. Allow me to send daily messages and pictures of your animal to give you peace of mind while you enjoy your trip!

About: We live with two beautiful pups and grew up with both dogs, cats, and even horses and livestock. Our experience with all is plentiful. Pets especially love our friendly nature, kind voice, and active lifestyle for a robust playtime. My husband and I currently work remotely full time, which has given us the ability to pet-sit for friends and family locally and even in different states! When I lived in NYC I walked up to six dogs at a time for about a year. We have a fenced yard for playtime, a sidewalk and dog park for walks and playtime. There is no food or trash to accidentally get into as everything is made to be pet safe.


About: I have been around dogs literally my whole life. I don't remember a time since I was born that I didn't have a dog. From sleeping on our pit bull as a toddler to rescuing a shelter baby to keep me company at college dogs have been an amazing part of my story. I'd even like to think that because of my fur babies I was more prepared to taken on the new journey of becoming a parent of an amazing little girl. Because of these experiences, I have learned many things about not only catering to a variety of personalities, but being creative in entertainment and time management. With these skills and all the added free time I have now that my daughter has started school I can assure you that not only will I be easily accessible for your needs, but I will make sure that you and your pet are sure to have a comfortable and enjoyable time using my services.

Plus, I’m fully available on Saturdays and Sundays to ensure your pet gets the care and attention they deserve. I offer flexible pet care services, providing in-home pet sitting as well as visits and stays at your residence to ensure your pet feels right at home.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs every since I was a child. From helping neighbors, friend and family care and love on their babies to owning my very own house full of fur babies. My husband and I foster cats and dogs with a handful of amazing rescues, we have been doing this for 5 years now and have accumulated a few “foster fails.” The last year we have primarily fostered newborn puppies or litters with mom included. Youngest animals I’ve cared for were 3 week old puppies and our oldest dog right now is 16 years young. I’m currently between travel assignments so I am home full time! I have a completely open and free schedule to help with your animals needs. I have a fenced in back yard and 2 pups to keep your dog company! All my dogs are up to date on vaccines, crate-trained, temperament tested, and socialized through day care. My house is also large enough where I have been able to section of an area as my foster dog/boarding area, that is completely separated from my dogs crates.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats as pets my entire life and have cared for them like my babies! I’m a nurse so I understand physiology and have cared for sick pets as well. I have experience with dogs, cats, rabbits, and chickens. I currently work remotely so I have plenty of flexibility to travel and help you with your babies while you are away. Overnight stays any day of the week are no problem. I will take care of your baby in your own home so that they aren’t traumatized by a new place while missing you. My goal is to keep them in their same routines and environment so that they have a peaceful and low stress experience.

Leslie C.
“Leslie watched my dog (Lexi) one weekend for me while I went on vacation and couldn't take her. Lexi is my baby girl so and I needed someone I could trust to take care of her and love her since I wasn't there to do so. Leslie came over to my house and took Lexi out on walks and played fetch with her. She fed her at certain times of the day that like I asked and she even sent me pictures and videos. I know she took great care of her and I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter or a dog walker!”


Christina A.
“I recently had the pleasure of having Christina take care of my two dogs, Moose and Ollie, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the moment we met, Christina's genuine love for animals was evident. She immediately connected with both Moose and Ollie, making them feel comfortable and secure. Throughout the entire time I was away, Christina provided regular updates with photos and detailed messages, reassuring me that my dogs were in the best hands. Her attention to detail and dedication to their well-being were truly outstanding. Moose, who can be a bit anxious, seemed completely at ease under her care, and Ollie, with his boundless energy, had plenty of playtime and exercise. Christina went above and beyond to ensure my home was kept tidy and my dogs were happy and healthy. Her professionalism, kindness, and expertise were exceptional. I highly recommend Christina to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive pet sitter. Thank you, Christina, for taking such wonderful care of Moose and Ollie!”




Adrian S.

“Adrian is a phenomenal pet sitter. I travel a lot for work and I never have to worry about leaving my dog or my house in her hands. She always keeps everything neat and tidy and my dog, Romeo, loves her. (It may be the toys she always brings him as gifts on long stays.) I started working with Adrian years ago and would gladly recommend her to anyone else in need of a sitter.”
