About: I’ve worked with reactive large-breed dogs for over two years, and I’m trained in administering medications, maintaining behavior training, and handling a wide range of temperaments—from timid to high-energy. Whether your pet has scales, fins, fur, or whiskers, I’ve likely cared for one just like them! I’ve house-sat and pet-sat for dogs, cats, reptiles, aquatic pets—you name it. I take detailed instructions seriously, especially when it comes to animals who need extra patience or consistency. While I work a 9–5 weekday job, I’m fully available evenings, mornings, and weekends, and I’ll ensure your pets get plenty of attention, love, and structure when you’re away. Whether it’s letting them out in the yard in the mornings before work, or taking them for a morning walk/run. I’m capable of maintaining your pets schedules. Especially if they are used to their humans working an 8-5. I can be up early to make sure they’re good to go for the day. And spend the evenings with them as well. If exercise is needed, I’ll maintain whatever detailed schedule you leave me. The more details on your pets likes and dislikes, and routines, the better!
“Mark was incredibly intuitive and kind when it came to our animals. Super easy going and openly communicative. Our animals absolutely adored him AND he sent really great photos during his stay. We are looking forward to hiring Mark again in the future!”
“Liz did an awesome job taking care of our little Gus! We were in the middle of selling our home and she went above and beyond to make sure everything was well taken care of. We would definitely use her services again if needed. She’s the best!”
“We are pretty new this and were very nervous. It was a last minute booking because we had to leave time for a family matter. We were without internet and cell for long periods of time. When we were able to use our phones Savannah had sent regular pictures and messages and even talked with our neighbor. Jax was happy and well cared for. Would recommend 😊”
About: I have been in the animal care business for the last 10 years. I personally have a very loved dog that I have cared for, for the last 11 years. On top of caring for my family’s pets over the last 16 years. I work full-time with several days working from home. I know how important an animals schedule is and would do everything to maintain that so the pet’s routine is not affected. My dog and kitten get everything the want and everything I think they need 🤣. Leaving your animal in the trust of me would guarantee that the things you want done for your family are completed. These can include walks, playing with certain toys, or the use of certain leashes or collars.
About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals pretty much my whole life. I have a huge heart bucket for animals. All animals deserve snuggles, hugs, and sunshine. I am looking to make this my main source of income so I’m free according to YOUR schedule which makes this easier! I’m young and can take your pets for runs! My cat and I have a routine, we play a lot and play Tag and fetch with his favorite ball. I feed him 2x a day and then we sit outside from time to time. He roams the apartment and does pretty much whatever.
“Jessica was fantastic for the week she stayed at our home- 2 dogs, a cat, saltwater fish and a snake were all well cared for. We came home to a clean house and happy pets! Will definitely be calling her again- A+++ sitter!”
About: I grew up with two dogs and a cat and pet sit for neighbors. From puppies and kittens to seniors, I’ve taken care of pets at every stage. I work full time during the week. I get one work from home day a week and the weekends off. I have pet sit successfully with this schedule. I will care for pets as if they were my own and make sure they do not go too long without care. My work schedule is very flexible.

Taryn Z.
“We recently went on vacation and had the pleasure of having Taryn care for our two dogs and cat—and we couldn't be more grateful. From the very beginning, she was communicative, reliable, and clearly experienced with animals. She took the time to understand each of our pets’ needs and routines, and it showed. We received regular updates, including photos and little notes about how everyone was doing, which gave us such peace of mind while we were away. When we returned home, our pets were calm, happy, and clearly well-loved. The house was tidy, and she had even gone the extra mile to make sure everything was just right. We highly recommend Taryn to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter. We will absolutely be reaching out to her again the next time we travel!”
