“We enjoyed her watching our cat. She sent us many pictures and updates about her drop ins. She also helped me get back online for our robot litter box. Our cat is very shy and she was patient to get her out and give her some cuddles. We will definitely ask her to watch her again!”
“She was always prompt to appointment, gave me photos of my cat with him eating and playing, kept the litter box clean, brushed and petted him. He looked well taken care of when I returned home. I will definitely use her again.”

About: I’ve spent many years caring for a variety of cats and dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. From energetic pups needing daily walks and playtime to independent cats who appreciate quiet companionship, I’m skilled at understanding and meeting each pet’s unique needs. My experience includes feeding, administering medications, grooming, and providing loving attention to keep pets happy and comfortable. I’m dedicated to creating a safe and nurturing environment for every furry friend in my care. Aside from dedicating quality time to my teenage kids and husband, I have ample availability to focus on other commitments. This flexibility enables me to be reliable and attentive, whether it’s for work, hobbies, or caring for pets. I provide attentive, stress-free care by following your instructions closely. I keep pets comfortable with play, cuddles, and routine, while also handling basic tasks like feeding, watering, and cleaning to maintain a happy, calm environment in your home.
About: Growing up with a dog, cat, and even reptiles, I gained about 12 years of hands on experience, fostering deep compassion and patience to provide attentive, loving care for all kinds of pets. I’m currently attending a local school only 3 days a week for only 2 hours a day, I am available anytime other than those hours. I care for your pets in your home by providing personalized attention, feeding, playtime, medication administration if needed, and ensuring they feel comfortable and secure in their familiar environment.
About: Hi! I'm Lydia. I'm a former zookeeper and animal trainer living in Panama City, FL. I have always loved animals and I've had pets my whole life. I currently have a cat and a parrot. I've cared for lots of different types of animals, from fur to feathers and beyond, so if you have other pets that need care while you're away, I'm your girl! I'm also comfortable caring for dogs that need medication or have special needs, blind, deaf, etc. I’m not able to provide boarding but I'm happy to stay with your pet in your home. I promise I will take great care of your fur babies while you're away. Lots of love is guaranteed! I’m currently between jobs so my schedule is flexible. If and when that changes, my updated availability will be reflected in the app. Thank you for understanding. Establishing trust between myself, the dog, and the owner is critical, which is why I require a meet and greet before accepting any new clients. It’s important for me to understand your dog’s routine and environment so I can provide quality, consistent care to them while you’re away.
“Had Hailey care for my dog in my home while we were out of town for 6 days and will definitely be using her again if I need! Was a last minute request and she helped me feel super comfortable being away by sending pictures and updates throughout. Super trustworthy and sweet!”
“We have Sam drop in two times per day to care/feed our two orange tabby cats. She does wonderfully by giving each cat some play time after they eat. We have the utmost trust in her.”
