Cohle took amazing care of my animals like they were her own. She sent pictures and updates. She’s very flexible and extremely nice. Would definitely recommend to any pet parent! I will absolutely be using her services again in the future!

Skye is very loving to our babies. Did a great job dropping in and letting them run in the backyard. Showed love to them all. Delilah, Patches, and Amber were so happy to see her and to get loving from her.

About: I've pet/house sat for multiple people in the past. Animals include dogs, cats, fish, and reptiles. I like to have a meet and greet before ever staying with your pets alone. If you have any special diets or quirks make sure we discuss them in advance! I don't mind staying for a few hours to watch your animals or just drop in, whatever is needed! I have a nighttime job so, your animals will need to be able to be alone at night a few days of the week! I will discuss meal plan, how often you walk them/let them outside, and if they have meds with you prior to caring for your animals.

Rachel is amazing! Maybe a "cat whisperer?!" First time leaving my dog for more than 1 night. I loved the pics I got more than I expected! It eased my mind, so I could concentrate on my work trip duties. She gave great care & love to my 2 cats and 1 dog. Highly recommend! Good job, I will use again!

Allison is always super flexible with my last minutes bookings & changes. It’s a huge weight off of my shoulders to know that my pup is checked in on when she’s alone at home all day!

Lucia was willing to come do a meet and greet prior to dropping in to visit with my dogs. She is very friendly and provides great service. She played with my puppy and sent some pics. House was found just as we left it. Would definitely recommend Lucia and will happily book her again in the future.

About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life. I got my first cat when I was 16 and now have two beautiful cats. Taking care of my cats has taught me a lot about patience, responsibility, and genuine love. I have also learned a lot about animal behavior from observing my cats and spending the past six years with them. Even though I have cats at home, I’ve also always loved dogs and enjoy spending time with them. I would love the opportunity to care for your pet and make them feel comfortable and loved. I am a nursing student at DMACC and have Friday, Saturday, and Sunday available to care for pets! I am available to work anytime between 10AM and 11PM. I make sure I always know where my pets are throughout the day. If they aren’t in their usual spots, I check on them to make sure they’re safe and comfortable. Before leaving the house, I make sure they have fresh water, a clean environment, and that their scheduled meals are served. I also pay attention to their behavior because it tells me a lot about how they are doing.

Sam is very knowledgeable about dog behavior and training. She was so good with my German shepherd and very reliable and trustworthy. So thankful to have had her, and sad we moved so we can’t use her anymore.

About: Hi! I’m a veterinary technician with 7 years of hands on experience providing compassionate, skilled care to animals of all ages and medical needs. I have a strong background in pediatric care, critical care nursing, and monitoring medically complex patients, so you can feel confident your pet is in knowledgeable, capable hands. I’m experienced in medication administration (oral, injectable, topical), post surgical care, monitoring vitals, recognizing early signs of illness or distress, and providing supportive care for senior pets and those with chronic conditions. I’m also comfortable caring for puppies, kittens, and pets that need extra patience, structure, or special routines. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and emotional well being are always my top priorities. I treat every animal as if they were my own and aim to provide a calm, stress free environment while keeping you updated with regular photos and messages. Whether your pet is young, aging, or needs a little extra medical attention, I’m here to provide reliable, loving, and professional care while you’re away. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine. I intentionally schedule my availability to ensure pets receive consistent attention, proper exercise, and timely meals and medications. With my background as a veterinary technician, I’m very accustomed to structured care schedules, monitoring routines, and adapting to each pet’s specific needs. I prioritize regular check-ins, enrichment, and calm one on one time, and I plan my days so pets are never rushed or overlooked. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding schedules, medication administration, or extra monitoring for puppies, seniors, or medical cases, pet care is a planned and reliable part of my routine, not an afterthought. For drop-ins and house sitting, I care for pets in their own home to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I follow their normal routine for feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and medications. I also monitor their health and behavior during each visit and make sure their space stays clean and safe. I always send updates and photos so you know your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I had dog when I was only 5 years old and always been taking care of dogs since I was growing up and now have my own baby, Porky and everyone always relies on me to watch their dogs and caring fir them while they are gone. I really love animals and dogs big time. I always let them outside whenever they feel like it and play roam around in backyard with fence :) I would go on dog walking and they give me excuses to work out too lol. They are my world. I would treat ur dogs as if they were my own. I am working a full time student at college but very flexible with hours. I can do after work for dog walking and even babysitting them too. My husband, he will definitely help me out if I need to when I m at school etc. Can always talk about needs and when etc. I do have a big backyard with fenced around. I have two dogs they will love to play with others. I would like to introduce them to your first before start let them play. I can always separate them if need to so they can take turns. I can give them bath, feed, take them out for walk, and even stay overnight if need. I would let you bring ur own dog foods for ur pets so that way it Is separate. I will always give them treats if being good. All you have to do is let me know what not to do or to do for them so I can be prepared.
