Paula was great keeping our small dog in our home. She sent pictures daily and from her comments I could tell she liked our dog and was having fun with him. She also left the house in great shape. I will definitely use her again!

Alexandria was flexible with a few last minute changes. She took great care of my pets, including my sick bunny who unwillingly had to take oral medications.

About: Hey I've taken care of many pets. Some of them are 3 dogs 3 cats, guinea pigs, and rabbits. I work part time so I have time for pets day or evening. I know scheduling can get crazy too so don’t hesitate to contact for a last minute booking. I also like to jog so if your pet likes to run I can incorporate that. I work part time so I have time for pets day or evening. I also like to jog so if your pet likes to run I can incorporate that. Caring for a pet is the practice of unconditional empathy. It’s the ritual of the morning walk, the comfort of a head on your lap after a long day, and the commitment to stay by their side through the energetic "zoomies" of youth and the quiet slowdown of old age.

Kyra is amazing! I used her for a two week long trip and didn’t have to worry about a thing. She left cat videos on as enrichment for my kitties and made more frozen enrichment treats for my dog. She let all of them sleep with her. I definitely recommend and will be booking again!

About: I had a miniature dachshund that was my best friend that I cared for, for 13 years who passed away from diabetes in 2024. I have dog sat for two high energy Catahoula dogs, who I love dearly, for about two years now. I have experience with walking, drop-ins, and overnight stays! I am currently a college student pursuing my degree in fashion completely online. Since I can do my class work at my own pace I am free to pet sit 7 days a week! I currently do not have any pets so your fur baby will have me all to theirselves! I do have a fenced in backyard with plenty of room to play. I am very attentive when caring for pets in their home as well. I am always aware of their needs like needing to be let out, to be played with, or more food or water.

About: Along with the confident ability to provide the best care for your fur babies, I have experience working as a veterinary assistant, and I begin vet tech school in the fall! Being a dog mom myself, I know how difficult it can be to leave your fur babies for any amount of time. I hope that as your potential pet sitter, I will be able to give you as much peace of mind as possible when doing so. My promise is to treat each of your animals as they were my own—with love, patience, and compassion! Being experienced in the veterinary field, I also have the ability and training to care for senior pets, pets who may be diabetic, take medications, etc. As a student, My schedule has gaps in it that do allow for me to care for your pet multiple times a day. This will give me time to care for your pet as you request! I have a fenced in yard that your pet will be able to have supervised play time as much as they would like! I am extremely flexible. However you typically go about your day with your pet, I will do my best to keep that routine for the comfort of your pet!

Jeffery did a great job with my cat! I hired him for a short house-sitting stint and he did quite well. Cinnamon seemed to get along well with him, and he took care of her feeding schedule expertly. The extra tasks I needed (bring in mail, set the faucets dripping for the freezer warning, etc.) were handled. Everything was in order when I came home, as far as I can tell. I definitely plan on turning to him for his help if I need it again in the future!

Morgan was the sweetest dog sitter! She was very attentive and asked all the right questions to be sure our pups were taken care of to her best ability. She sent us pictures throughout her stay and updated us on how they were doing. We would 100% book Morgan again. We highly recommend her!

About: Well I have worked at a doggy daycare for months. I love all dogs small or big and it’s been so fun to work with them. And I’ve taught some how to seat. At the moment I do have a night time job usually 2-9pm selling Life Insurance. And I can dog sit but there might be a few nights I’ll be a little later getting to houses some nights. However I have all the time from 7-1 to watch them throughout the day. I normally go to other peoples houses and I make sure they are outside and feed, even if they need to be walked I will do it and obviously I respect the owners wishes and choices.

About: I have worked at a vet clinic for two years so I learned how to care for animals better in a way to make sure the client is happy with their service. I work part time as a lifeguard on Wednesday, Thursdays, and Saturdays so it gives me something to do on the days I’m not busy. I have many pets and one way I care for them is to set a routine for all of my animals to feed or take outside.

About: I have pet sat for my grandma for as long as I can remember and deal with dogs daily, I have my own dog currently. I can bathe and walk and play with dogs easily and safely and feed them if given instructions and their allergies. I plan to be available during the daytime for seven days a week and don’t have a job currently so am looking to spend a lot of time with any dog I can. I take my teacup size dog on walks daily, sometimes with my grandma or sisters larger dogs. I help feed them and watch them in the back yard or around the house whenever needed. I often brush and play with the dogs in my home, and help feed them daily
