About: I've grown up owning dogs my whole life, and I own my own dog as well. I honestly think it's impossible to be sad when a dog is in your life, and it is our responsibility to take care of them as best as we can. I would love to spend time and take care of your dog in the event you cannot. They should't have to feel so alone when we are busy! My puppy is very social, kind, and loves to play with other dogs. She is spayed so there is no worry there. I promise to take the best care of your dog, as if it was my own. I am also a strong believer in training dogs and keeping them on their own routine. I am very respectful of the rules or standards that each owner has for their dog, and plan on carrying those out exactly as you ask. I have a very flexible schedule currently and can accommodate many different times. Feel free to reach out and we can find a common time that works for you, your pet and me! Safety and trust are the most important aspect of caring for other animals. They are not just our pets but members of our family and I always keep that in mind. I will send photos and always be transparent about how your dog is doing.

About: I have experience caring for furry dog friends. I'm comfortable with walking, feeding, giving medication, and providing attention and playtime. Whether your dog is energetic or laid-back, I make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. Hi, my name is G'la! I'm excited to meet new pets and provide them with loving, reliable care. I work a hybrid schedule, which gives me the flexibility to offer consistent attention and companionship throughout the day. Whether it’s a midday walk, playtime, or just keeping a furry friend company, I truly enjoy making pets a natural and joyful part of my daily routine. I adjust my care based on each pet’s routine and personality. In a client’s home, I follow their instructions closely to keep pets comfortable in their familiar space—feeding, walks, playtime, litter box or yard clean-up, medication, and plenty of companionship. I also make sure the home stays clean, safe, and secure. If I’m caring for pets in my own home, I create a calm, pet-friendly environment with plenty of space, enrichment, and supervision. I keep to their feeding and exercise schedule and give them lots of affection and attention to help them feel at ease while they're away from home.

“Thanks so much for hanging out with Charlie! I know he’s going to be so excited to see you again :)”



About: I grew up with few family dogs and cared for the dogs of my neighbors and friends as an adult. My presence draws animals of all ages and backgrounds to me and I love seeing the world from the perspective of a dog. During the pandemic I trained my neighbor dog and she still counts on me for discipline and affection. You and your dog can rely on me to provide care that ensures their well being and safety. I am a part time student at a local buddhist seminary learning to be a spiritual care provider. So I am available Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday in the mornings, afternoons and evenings. On Tuesdays I am available from 12-6. On the weekends, if you want to take a trip, then I can house sit or pop in for walk or visit. I make it a priority to meet owners with their pets to establish rapport with the human and 4 legged being. I want to understand what motivates the dog and what the dog is sensitive to. I care for dogs by giving them walks, play, touch, positive regard and correction. I am patient and firm. I meet dogs where they are at emotionally, spiritually, and physically for them to do what I am asking. If I can't meet the pet owner, then leaving something like a "sub plan" for me to orient myself to your home, pet, and leash would be great. I skilled at making good first impressions, learning my way throughout a home, and messaging priority questions.

About: I am active, reliable, and a good communicator. I’ve pet sat and walked w/ a wide variety of breeds and backgrounds to include rescues. Would love to hear all about your pet and their needs. I am a teacher on summer break. My schedule is pretty open in the summer and I’m done working by 4:30pm typically on school days When I am pet sitting or taking someone’s pet for a walk, I do my best to stick to animals regular schedules, routines, positive affirmations, etc. I want to help your pet experience the least amount of stress when we go for walks and when their owners are temporarily absent.

“Lisa was AMAZING!!!! She is so clearly a cat lover and went above and beyond to take care of our two cats. She spent extra time with them each day to make sure they got plenty of love and attention. She was super communicative and sent pictures each day without prompt. I felt so comfortable and secure leaving our cats with her and we will absolutely be seeking her services again!”


About: I’ve cared for both cats and dogs for over 10 years. I’m patient, attentive, and truly enjoy spending time with animals. I treat every pet like they’re part of my family. I’m a freelancer with a flexible schedule. I enjoy taking dogs outside, I personally prefer caring for one pet at a time to give them my full attention. I currently don’t offer pet boarding in my home, but I’m happy to come to yours! I offer drop-in visits, feeding, and dog walking. I focus on providing calm, one-on-one care in a familiar environment for your pet.

“Cindy & Cesar were great cat sitters! They were very communicative and also watered our garden while we were away. I loved getting photo/video updates from them.”


About: Friends have asked me to care for their fur babies at numerous times in my life. I'll make sure your pet is cared for like my own. I'm open to giving medication, if necessary. From pups/kittens to senior care, I can manage them all. I want to help pet owners during my free time. Since I currently don't own pets at this time, I've decided to help those who are. I work full-time, but sometimes I have more time weekdays as well. Generally, I'm pretty open on weekends and after 3:30pm during the week. Since I don't currently have my own pets, I'm gonna provide great care to yours! I enjoy taking dogs for walks. I live near an amazing park. Making your pet feel comfortable and happy is important. Once trust is built, all will be well.

“Alondra took great care of my dog while I was away for a week with daily walks in a variety of different parks and scenic places. She was super communicative and would highly recommend her!”

“Amy was great! My cat was a huge fan.”


“Ricky was fantastic! He is our new go-to dog walker for our pup. His check-ins were super helpful and detailed, and it was clear he really cared her. Always on time and communicative.”

Rebecca is trustworthy, I am free of worry whenever she takes care of our dog. I highly recommend Rebecca!”

“Madison is truly the best!! She watched my dog Rico for a week, and I was blown away by how well she cared for him. Rico is a pretty high-maintenance dog with a special diet and has always gotten sick and acted out when I'm away - but not this time! Madison sent me daily updates and photos, and I felt totally at ease knowing he was in such good hands. When I got home, Rico was happy and totally himself. That has never happened before. I couldn't be more grateful and I couldn't recommend Madison more!!”
