About: I've taken care of cats/dogs/guinea pigs of my own over the years since I was young. Friends trust me to watch their fur babies. I'm currently available anytime to care for your fur babies. I've been an Executive for 21 years with an advanced degree and am taking a break from the workforce to reset, raise my daughter, and breathe. I will happily take care of your fur babies in their domain that they know. I will also offer cleaning, laundry, dish washing services or organization services if desired. I will keep your home tidy.
About: My passion is caring for animals while strengthening the bond they share with their owners. I started fostering animals at 11 years old, and since then I've helped more than 50 cats and dogs find the loving homes they deserve. My experience includes working as a kennel attendant, pet care professional, and in several animal shelters, giving me the confidence to care for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I can't wait to meet you and your pet(s)! I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for daytime visits, typically between 7 am - 5 pm.

About: Ever since I was little, I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs and cats for family and friends. From the most energetic puppies to anxious rescues, I am very experienced in pet care, and will ensure your furry friends receive all the love and attention they deserve while you’re away! I am currently taking a break from school, making me available all throughout the week to help with anything you need—including walks, check-ins, and house sitting. I cannot care for your pets in my home because my dog gets very anxious around other unfamiliar animals. However, I can definitely stay in your home where your pets feel the most comfortable, & will take care of them exactly as you would like!
“Very satisfied! She is so nice and has a great demeanor with my dog. Which was so helpful as I have a senior dog with anxiety. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog in the care of Jaclyn.”

About: I have a 6 month old dog I already take care of and just love animals and being around them and to just be there. I’m really free anytime of the week and can suit to your schedule also. I am available to work with your schedule anytime offered up. I have a fenced yard with lots of room to run around also with treats,toys,and a cage with a little dog bed if it’s needed.
About: I'm a lover of all animals, but DOGS are my absolute favorite! I've taken care of dogs of various sizes and backgrounds since I was little. Neighbors, friends, and family have always relied on me to care for their pets during times they couldn't. My patience and understanding of dogs is what sets me apart from others. I've always had a special place in my heart for rescues and currently own 3 from various challenging backgrounds. I enjoy training them and making them feel loved in a safe space! They are DEFINITELY family members in our home! 😍 After 19 years in the restaurant business, working nights and weekends, I chose to step away and spend the summer with my kiddos (kindergarten and 1st grade) before they began school again. I am now pursuing different avenues that allow a better work/home life balance and flexibility to be close to home as much as possible. I have a fully fenced yard and 3 laid back, friendly dogs that love to play but don't mind being contained separately from your dog if needed! Our home is very flexible and easy going and can accommodate whatever you may need.
About: I have a very diverse experience with both dogs and cats, old and young, big and small, and have done plenty of assisting in training dogs and rehabilitation of animals that are injured or traumatized. I am very patient and consistent, as well as adaptable to the pet's needs and routine! I work part time so my availability is flexible and abundant. I am also willing to work with your schedule and needs and will provide your dog with care throughout my duration of caring for them whether it's just a long walk that day or watching them at their home. I work part time right now so my schedule is flexible and open to majority of your needs or expectations, I am also very quick to communicate when something may come up or if there are any concerns. I hold a pet's routine in high regard and want to do whatever they are most used to or expecting to the best of my abilities.
About: I grew up with labs and when I was in high school, my mom adopted cats. I adopted my own cats in January and November of 2023. Through my time on Rover and Wag!, I have experience with all sorts of dogs! My gallery consists of all of the animals I have cared for as well as my own pets:) I am in my last year of my full-time Master’s program and am in a part-time internship downtown MWF from 9-4 as well as working part-time three days/week downtown. I know I have a busy schedule and I understand if this doesn’t work for your pet’s needs, but know that I will give your pet/s all of my love and attention and the best care possible when I am with them:) I do my best to go off of their needs and their schedule! If a pup needs a little bit to get comfortable with me, I let them take their time before I approach them or before we do anything. First and foremost, I want everyone to feel comfortable.
About: Over 7 years experience caring for all different kinds of animals in all capacities! I know how to administer medication, orally or injection, and wouldn’t mind doing so. I received my trainers certification from Catch Trainers Academy in 2024 and am well versed in dogs language and behavior. I’m also pet CPR/first aid certified through the Red Cross. I’m a full time pet sitter & dog trainer so I’m able to have an extremely accommodating schedule because of this. This allows me to be there for pet parents when needed! **House sitting is for the hours of 5pm-8am - price reflects 6 hours of care | please reach out if you have different needs** I believe in patiently caring for every animal, as every animal is different and special in their own way. Your animal will be loved on and given plenty of cuddles and treats. I’m willing to walk them wherever is convenient. If your dog just wants to chill (it’s like that sometimes) we can hang out. I can properly and gently re-crate any dogs and, if needed, put up any cats.
About: I have been obsessed with dogs since I was little. Always wanting to have one, pet one, and just interact with one. I currently have a GSD, who is a handful, that I love dearly. I’m currently working 12 hour shifts with a rotating schedule. My available days change every week, but I know my schedule very far out in advance. I am very mindful of doors being closed all the way before and after taking your furry baby for a walk. Will provide them with water and treats before and after. I can also put them back into their crate before leaving if required.
About: What sets me apart is that I truly love dogs! I currently work at a grooming facility, so I am comfortable being around different types of dogs and learning their individual needs. I also have a fenced-in yard where dogs can safely play and have fun. I have four kids who love dogs, so we have a fun and loving home for pups. I would love for my kids to get comfortable around different dogs before we have a family dog of our own. I have time during the week to give your pup plenty of attention, playtime, and care. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I work full-time as a paraprofessional Monday through Friday from 8 AM to 4 PM. My husband is home during the day, so the pup will have someone home with them while I’m at work. Once I’m home, I’ll be with the pup for the rest of the day and can give them plenty of attention, care, and companionship. I’m looking forward to play with your pups! I have a fenced-in yard where dogs can safely play and get exercise. I also have four children under the age of 9 who absolutely love dogs! We have a fun, loving family, and we would be happy to welcome your pup into our home. I will make sure your dog gets plenty of attention, playtime, and care while also making sure they feel safe and comfortable.
“I reviewed a few months ago and wanted to follow up. At this point Zach has watched all my pups and I can’t stress enough how great he is. He takes the time to build with each dog, he asks a lot of questions, and genuinely cares about making sure they feel as comfortable as possible when we are gone. He is such a good dog sitter, and a really great guy in general. The only down side is now we don’t want to share him! Haha. Honestly though, your dog would be in very capable hands. Thanks Zach!”

About: I’ve had cats my whole life and started pet sitting other people’s pets in high school. I’ve looked after all types of pets such as hermit crabs, rats, rabbits, cats, and dogs. Since then I’ve adopted two kitties of my own and I can’t wait to look after yours! I am happy to stop by for drop in visits before or after my shifts at work or on my days off, send me a message for more specific scheduling. I am very comfortable navigating your home to your needs. I am happy to follow any instruction given and will make sure your fur baby is happy and safely taken care of.
About: I've had animals my entire life not just cats or dogs, but even small animals . I don't mind walking,feeding, or giving any animals a bath. I'm a preschool teacher and have the summers off, leaving me basically with a very open schedule. Even during the school year, I don't work weekends when most families are on vacation or a small trip. I will treat your pets how I treat my own. I have two cats and one dog. They are my fur children. They are spoiled and got the life.
“Erin was amazing! She was able to pick up Eevee on the same day and she made my life so much easier. Eevee was so happy and tired out because of the amazing day she had with Erin. I will definitely be using Erin again as a sitter because I could not think of a better person. She was part of their family which helps with my nerves as Eevee is my first dog. I will recommend Erin to everyone who needs a dog sitter because again she is that good. She sent me photos and videos of Eevee through out the day and it just warmed my heart.”

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins.

Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
