About: My entire life I've grown up around cats and dogs, always having at least one. I get along better with dogs than cats, but I love both equally. My pets have loved me, and even animals I first meet tend to like me right away. I'm also used to house sitting and pet sitting for my parents. I'm currently between jobs so I have nothing but time. My current house is yet to be pet friendly, so unfortunately I can't board, but I'm willing to travel to pet sit or just feed and walk the animals. I will follow whatever routine the animals have set to the letter, and whatever instructions I'm left. The animals' needs are always my top priority.
About: I’ve cared for dogs since I was 12 and have been pet and house sitting for the last 10 years. I love taking energetic pups on long walks or playing fetch in a secure yard, and I’m equally comfortable creating cozy spaces for senior dogs. I have two dogs of my own (one large, one medium), and I’m experienced with administering medications—even to picky ones who need a creative touch. I’ve volunteered at animal shelters off and on since 2020 and have worked with reactive and anxious dogs who may require extra time to warm up to strangers. I love spending time with both dogs and cats, and making them feel safe, happy, and loved. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I’m a full‑time freelancer with a very flexible schedule. I’m available every day between 8 AM and 11 PM, and I can easily adjust my day to meet your pet’s needs—whether that’s a morning walk, a midday check‑in, or an evening visit. My open schedule also allows me to accommodate last‑minute bookings, so you can count on me even when plans change unexpectedly. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick to the routines your cats and dogs already know so they feel secure and comfortable. I follow your feeding, walking, play, and litter box instructions, keep their spaces clean, and make sure your home stays tidy and secure. I’m attentive to each pet’s personality—whether that’s a shy cat, an energetic dog, or anything in between—and I work to make every visit calm, safe, and stress‑free.

“Our cats were very well taken care of by Vanessa. She was able to drop in last minute, voiced any concerns quickly, and even made us feel great about our home. 10/10 would recommend!”

About: It was obvious from the time I was a little girl that I had a special connection with animals. I used to visit my grandmother as a child and pretend I was a dog trainer. We always had pets growing up. In 2006 after spending years in retail management I saw a sign on a car advertising pet sitting services. I knew that was my calling and soon started my own business. I have many clients and references. Pets are family and should be treated as such. I offer a home environment and lots of TLC.
“Madeline was great, she took care of our boston terrier went above and beyond. We had to change Airbnbs and the second was out of her range but she happily agreed to make it work for the remaining 2 days.”

About: I’ve had a dog since I was a little kid. I also have watched dogs for my friends. My two oldest daughters head off to college this August. My youngest daughter, she will be 12 in September, loves all animals, but especially dogs. I am looking for a way to have more dogs in our house for my daughter to play with. We have one dog, Marley. However, my mom lives next door and she has two dogs, Daisy and Zoe. They visit often. But when we are watching other dogs, they will not visit. Our goal is to provide a fun, safe environment for your pup while you are away. I am able to watch your fury family member any weekend during the school year or June/July over the summer. I am not available: July 6-9 After July 30, I am back at school. I am available to watch your fury family member Friday (after 3:30) until Sunday evening (anytime.) I have a pool for them to swim in and and fully fenced in area around my house. I have about 40 acres we can take leashed walks on if you would like. We do have a few cows and a horse on the extended acreage. My lab/beagle mix loves to play with dogs. She plays well with both small and large dogs.
“Samara is just awesome with Little Kitty! She is dependable. Always updates me promptly with any changes or asks for clarification about anything unclear. Little Kitty adores her and is always happy to see her!🥹”


“Miriah did a great job looking after our cats while we were away on vacation, cleaning the litter box with the pine pellet system we use, cleaning the water fountain and changing the filters. Our cats are scared of people and hide, but she tried to find them and take pictures for us every time she went, and gave us updates. Thanks Miriah!”


About: I’ve taken care of cats and even dogs growing up. I’ve helped raised them from birth and watch them grow into thriving animals. I love animals either it’s a cat or a dog I will give them 110$ of my attention and care. Growing up with animas has always been in my heart no matter what. After school I’m free to take care of the animals. I am graduating in May so after that I will be much more free. I’m 18 trying to help out my dad will bills and doing something I love would genuinely be a great start, I love animals and I’m here and flexible with any pet owner and there time. I will be able to care for the pet by loving the and fulfilling there day to day needs.
