Aleona is the best pet sitter I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. She is so good with my blue heeler; spends time with him and loves on him like he’s her own pet. I have complete peace of mind when she watches my sweet boy. He’s a older dog…15 years old!

Regina is great! My puppies just love her and I highly recommend her! One of my pups is very skittish and he warmed right up to Regina and even ate his dinner for her. Thank you so much Regina for watching my pups! Sherry Seale

Olivia was great with our dog lulu. She was extremely responsive, provided daily updates and left our house very clean when we came back. Will definitely look to book her again!

About: I had two dogs growing up and now I have one 4 year old dog who I have been taken care of since 8th grade. I also occasionally take care of my neighbors dogs and cats. In August, I will be attending college on a track scholarship, and I will need to train a lot over the summer so this will allow me to fit in my training along with making some money before I go to college. My dog that I take care of now has tons of toys to play with, water bowl is constantly filled and is fed 2-3 times a day as required.

About: Growing up my family always helped shelter and rehome lost pets of all ages and types, I love animals and understand the importance of comfort that a pet needs to be in a strangers care. I enjoy gig work while I take care of my own pack at home. I do work delivery jobs and enjoy a good drive to work I like for pet areas to be clean and tidy for easy access and care. I love long stimulating walks with the pups and some toy time or practicing basic obedience commands in my time with them for mental stimulation.

NeTia was a fantastic pet/house sitter! She came to my home before her job began to allow the dogs to familiarize themselves with her. Both of my dogs, even my very scared/shy dog, immediately took to NeTia. I believe they noticed her calm presence and felt at ease. I got pictures and consistent feedback from NeTia! I never worried about how the animals were doing! She did a great job with the pets, communication, and keeping the house clean. She even washed, dried, and folded the towels she used! :)

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 12 years old. Neighbors, family friends and family have relied on me to take care of their furry family members. As someone who has dogs of their own, I know how much your animals mean to you. I have had experience with puppies, all the way to older dogs. Although I work full-time, I still have plenty of time to care for your furry family members! I’m available for weekend drop-in visits and can stay in your home any day of the week to keep your pets comfortable and maintain their normal routine. I strive to make pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I follow their normal routine as closely as possible, provide plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, and ensure they always have a safe environment. I pay close attention to each pet’s individual needs and keep owners updated throughout my visits or stays.

Carly is amazing and wonderful! She took care of my 2 German shepherds and 2 cats while I was on a cruise for a week. One of my pups had a medical emergency and she made me feel at ease caring for her like she was her own. I really appreciated Carly’s frequent updates and photos.

With school ending, I’ll be available for pet care all summer from 10 AM to 8 PM.

In my client’s home, I keep each pet’s routine consistent and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I follow feeding schedules, provide walks and playtime, and I’m patient with rescues, seniors, and puppies. I’ve had dogs since birth, and friends and family have always trusted me with their pets, so I will bring that same dependable care to every home I enter.

About: Animals have always been a meaningful part of my life, not just a job or responsibility. What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my genuine connection with animals and my ability to understand their individual needs and personalities. I take the time to build trust, especially with pets who may be shy or anxious, and I care for every animal as if they were my own. I am attentive, patient, and reliable, and I understand how important it is for owners to feel confident and at ease while they’re away. My goal is to provide consistent, compassionate care that keeps pets happy and owners reassured. I am a senior in college with a lot of free time, I love to be around and care for animals so this is a good fit for me. When caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable. I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water at all times, receive plenty of attention and playtime, and get the rest they need. I pay close attention to their behavior and well-being, and I’m comfortable following specific instructions, including medication or special care needs. I also keep the home clean and secure, and I communicate regularly with owners to provide updates and peace of mind.

About: About me: I have time & quality care to give to the pet(s) you love while walking or pet/house sitting because I'm an online college student. I have 22 years of dog, cat and other pet care experience to include pet walking, training, transporting, vet visits & pet/house sitting listed in detail below. I'm starting in the job field of Animal Behavior on completion of my college degree. My previous career of 21 years was in oceanography, & I look forward to giving your pet the love and attention they deserve. Experience in DOG CARE: In the last 22 years, on the side of my regular job, I have been trusted by family, friends and new clients via word of mouth to pet sit for canines of all sorts to include senior dogs, dogs with cancer, high energy dogs, shy and nervous dogs, a Great Dane, puppies and multi-pet households. Experience in CAT CARE: I've been cat sitting for 21 years for senior cats, cats with diabetes, cats with swimmer’s syndrome, one cat in a wheelchair, shy cats, active cats, multi-pet households, hairless cats, indoor/outdoor cats, indoor only cats, outdoor only cats & kittens. ADDITIONAL PET CARE: I also have 22 years' pet sitting experience with other pets such as hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits, fresh water fish, turtles, geese and pigs. In my free time, I've rescued, rehabilitated, trained, fostered and been a pet owner to both dogs and cats in Texas, Virginia, California, Hawaii, Spain and the Kingdom of Bahrain. I have also volunteered at animal rescue and no-kill shelters in all of those places as follows: Humane Society, PAWS of Texas, Hawai'i Bird Rescue, Hawai'i Marine Animal Response, Rota Animal Welfare League Spain, and Bahrain SPCA. I am available for walking, pet/house sitting, pet care, vet visits, pet transportation and moving because I'm a full-time online university student. I have my own reliable transportation to come to you, but I do not have the availability to board animals in my residence at this time. My goal is to keep your pet(s) in their routine with the same worry-free, stress-free care as you have set up for them for walking, pet/house sitting, pet care, vet visits, pet transportation or moving. I have my own reliable transportation to come to you. I offer pet transportation in my own vehicle as well, but I do not have boarding facilities available at this time.

About: I have a unique range of experience when it comes to animal care, I have cared for animals big and small. From cats and dogs to horses and pigs, every animal receives love and attention. Specifically I have cared for many different breeds of dogs such as mini dachshunds, schnauzers, Australian Shepards, Shih Tzu’s, XL Bullies, Cane Corsos, German Shepards, Golden Doodles, Golden Retrievers, Labrador's, and Dobermans (my fur baby is a dobie). I have cared for cats and know they require tailored interactions depending on their personalities as well. All animals deserve all the love, understanding, and attention possible! I work from home as a marketing analyst, I am able to step away and tend to your animals needs whenever needed. I have a completely open and flexible schedule! My goal is always to provide a seamless care experience for you and your animal(s). As I come to my clients to either do drop in/check ins or to stay for an extended period, I want to always make the experience stress free for everyone. That includes constant communication and updates, as well as attention to detail when following instructions left.
