“This amazing woman took care of my cats while I was on vacation, had to take a last minute work trip, and while I had to quickly make it to a funeral. She not only takes care of your fur babies as if they were her own, she updates you with everything, takes cute pictures, and keeps your place tidy and running smoothly. Absolutely would recommend Karen to anyone who is nervous about leaving their pets alone.”


About: Hi, I’m Josh—and I offer nothing but the most reliable pet care around, tailored to you and your pets needs! 🐾 I’ve been around animals my whole life and truly believe every pet deserves kindness, routine, and a whole lotta love (and maybe a treat or three). From playful pups to wise old doggos, I’ve cared for pets of all ages, personalities, and energy levels. Whether it’s: 🐕🦺 Gentle strolls for seniors 🦴 Play-packed walks for energetic pups 🧸 Cozy care for anxious or shy pets 🎓 Basic routine reinforcement …I meet every animal where they’re at. Your pet won’t just be walked or watched—they’ll be nurtured, entertained, and treated like family. Plus, I’m a firm believer in consistent communication! You’ll get updates, pics, and plenty of peace of mind while your pet is in my care. Right now, I’m home full-time—so your pet’s schedule? It becomes my schedule! Early morning potty breaks, midday zoomies, afternoon sunbathing, or evening snuggles… I’ve got the time and the treats. My days are pretty flexible, so whether your pup needs structure or just someone to hang out with while they nap, I can make it happen. I keep things calm, cozy, and consistent—because pets thrive when they feel safe and seen. Basically: if your pet has a routine, I’ll stick to it like peanut butter on a chew toy. 🦴 And if they’re more of a go-with-the-flow type? We’ll create a new groove together. Let me know what makes your fur baby happiest—and I’ll make sure every visit or stay feels like a mini vacation (with belly rubs included, obviously). My home is a peaceful, pet-friendly space where your furry friend will feel right at home. I’m home full-time, so pets are never left alone for long, and I’m always nearby for cuddles, potty breaks, or the occasional “did someone say treat?” moment. A fenced-in yard is in the works soon (yay!), but in the meantime, we’ve got instant access to Academy Springs Park—just a few steps away—and we’re a short drive from the Chimney Park dog park too. Plus, my quiet, sidewalk-lined neighborhood is perfect for low-stress walks and curious sniffing adventures. I keep my space clean, calm, and cozy. No overwhelming noise, no overcrowding, and definitely no chaos. Whether your pet needs space to lounge, room to play, or a quiet spot to decompress, we’ll create the right setup for them. I care for every animal like they’re my own—because honestly, they kinda are while they’re with me. 💛

About: I have had animals my entire life, so 30+ years of experience. I know that your fur babies are apart of your family. You can count on me to make sure they feel at home. I currently work full-time. My partner has a very flexible schedule so your fur baby will have several opportunities throughout the day for potty breaks. I have a fenced in back yard. I have two extremely friendly medium sized dogs (both are spayed/neutered). I also have 2 playful cats that interact very well with the pups. All of our pets are inside only.

About: I have been a RVT (a vet “nurse”) for 9 years with some of that working with large animals and also in small animal emergency. I also grew up on a large dog breeding farm. I am experienced with all ages and all breeds of dogs. I can give all forms of medications (insulin, SQ Fluids, oral meds, etc). I have 4 large breed dogs of my own and love every dog I have the pleasure of working with. I also like to leave houses clean from overnight stays. Pet care is a daily routine for me as I have a geriatric large breed dog and all of my dogs are on special food or medications I would care for your pet like it was my own. Daily walks if needed and continuous love and care for them. I want to create a space that doesn’t disrupt their normal day to day activities.

“Lima was wonderful! We were away from our shy cat for over a week, I wasn’t sure if she’d even come out of hiding. But Lima sent us pictures of her eating and drinking, and even getting some rubs, so Zatanna obviously felt very comfortable with Lima. I’d recommend Lima to anyone for any animal, but can vouch that she’s good with skittish cats.”


“Jack was amazing!, I was gone for 7 days and had no need to worry. My dogs were fed, cleaned up after and taken care of each day I was gone. It was my first time trying this service and I must say, I was impressed and realized I made the best decision for my dogs while I was gone. Jack you are the best and the next time I am out of town I will request you again!!!”


About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my six years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats. I have a deep understanding of their needs and behaviors, allowing me to provide personalized care tailored to each pet's individual requirements. Additionally, I have specialized skills in training puppies, helping them develop good manners and obedience from a young age. Furthermore, I excel in senior pet care, understanding the unique challenges they may face and providing compassionate support to ensure their comfort and well-being. My dedication to the happiness and health of every pet entrusted to my care is what truly sets me apart as a pet sitter. Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine, seamlessly woven into my schedule. I prioritize regular walks, playtime, feeding, and grooming sessions for the pets under my care, ensuring they receive the attention and exercise they need to thrive. My experience working at a daycare has honed my multitasking and organizational skills, allowing me to efficiently balance the needs of both children and pets. I understand the importance of maintaining a structured routine while also being flexible and adaptable to accommodate any unexpected changes or emergencies that may arise. Whether it's coordinating feeding schedules, administering medication, or engaging in interactive play, I approach each task with dedication and enthusiasm, ensuring the well-being of every furry friend in my care. When caring for pets in my own home, I provide a comfortable and safe environment where they can feel at ease. This includes designated sleeping areas, access to water and food, and plenty of toys and enrichment activities to keep them stimulated. I ensure regular exercise through walks, playtime, and outdoor adventures in nearby parks or trails. For clients who prefer pet care in their own home, I offer personalized services tailored to the needs of their furry companions. This can include regular visits for feeding, walking, and companionship, as well as additional services such as administering medication, grooming, and basic training reinforcement. I strive to maintain the same level of care and attention to detail as I would for my own pets, creating a trusting and reliable relationship with both the pets and their owners.

About: I learned to care for our pet dog Joe at the age of 8. Followed by my grandmothers cat that littered 6 kittens. During my college years I helped look out for my grandmothers small dog named Pepper. I fed her, walked her, and gave her baths from time to time. Not long after, my Uncle moved in with his Great Dane Adam, and the other dog named Bandit- mixed breed of Bull Mastiff and Golden Retriever. I would walk Adam sometimes, but mostly Bandit. My Uncle was a trainer, and we were close, so it didn’t take long for them to trust me and befriend me. More recently I’m a father of twin 5 year olds that keep me alert and on my toes. My schedule varies with the school system schedule. I’m off during the summer, spring break, holidays etc. Weekends are free. During the school year, I’m usually available after 330 pm, Into the evenings and overnight. I have a spacious house, garage, and large back yard. I would keep them in the house, feed them, and give them water. I can take them outside on a leash for a walk since I don’t have a fence.

About: I have taken care of a Yorkshire terrier for 16 years and a golden doodle puppy for 2 years. I have also babysat many of my friends dogs (up to 5 at a time!) and I have a love for animals and would love to make some extra cash by doing something I love! I enjoy being around all types of dogs and my dog is very friendly towards other animals too. Thanks for looking at my page! I am a full time parent, so I am flexible. Just let me know your needs and we can make arrangements! I can have my dog present or not, depending on preference. I have a small yard, but can leash walk. Pet-friendly home! I have gates in my home to help keep dogs in one particular area if needed for their safety.

“Mary took wonderful care of our cats. We had to leave them inside while we were gone and they were not happy. But, over the course of 11 days, she got Lufie, who hates other people in his house, to come out long enough for a picture. Remy and Romy where happy to see her every day. She took pictures everyday, which made us happy. She also took care of setting up our days and times on the Rover system, which is very cumbersome for long time periods. I’m planning to hire Mary again for a week in February. Thanks so much for taking such good care of my babies, Mary!”


About: I was a dog walker before I got hired at a pet store. My first dog was a lab pit mix, my second a Belgian Shepherd, and now I have my own pit mix. I have sat for family members with Chihuahuas and dachshunds. I am great with any size dog and have never met a pet I didn't love. I am familiar with many training tools, dietary needs and distributing medication. I have owned a couple dogs with severe allergies and sensitivities. I also have experience with exotic pets including ferrets. I care for my dog 24/7 including daily walks and a good amount of play time. I work from home as a counselor and create my own schedule so have plenty of time to tend to your pets. I have a fenced yard and a friendly pup that loves other dogs. She would be great company or be able to be kept separate depending on your pets needs


About: Hi there! I’m Irma. All my life I have lived with dogs. Growing up, I had two corgis and now currently have another! As a pet and wedding photographer, I understand patience but I also know how to achieve a good doggy smile. Spending quality time caring to make sure your fur baby is happy is number one. Running through parks, throwing frisbee, and toy playing with them are just some of the things you can expect from me. I hope you will pick me because you won't have to worry while you are away. If I’m sitting, checking in, or walking for them - they will have my full attention. Your pup will have loads of fun and playtime with me. I want to be able to put you at ease knowing that he or she is safe and having a great time. :) I have a flexible schedule as I work for myself to ensure full responsibility. I can work around a normal 9 to 5 and communicate well with you. I’m comfortable doing what you need me to do in the comfort of your home. If they like to be in the bed or if you would like me to crate, either way they will get love!

“Shannon is simply the best. The most reliable and responsible pet caregiver, she goes above and beyond to make sure your furry friend has everything they need. Not only does she have a deep passion for dogs having grown up on a family breeding facility, she also is highly qualified as a registered veterinary nurse for over 9 years. I have never known someone who is more in tune with my pets. Another great feature of Shannon’s character is her attention to detail. She makes sure that not only your pet is cared for, but so is your home. I could not recommend anyone higher than my recommendation of Shannon to care for your beloved four legged family members!!”

Irma A.
“Irma is the best dog sitter/walker I’ve ever had. My 3 dogs, all different sizes, loved her so much I feel like they were sad when I would come home and she had to leave. All of my dogs have different needs and she was amazing with catering to all 3 of my guys. On top of being a fabulous dog sitter, she’s probably one of the nicest people I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting. 10/10 would recommend”
