About: Hi! I’m a reliable 23-year-old pet lover with over 10 years of experience caring for cats, dogs, and furry friends of all sizes. I’ve raised two cats of my own, lived with a dog for two years, and helped neighbors and friends with daily walks, feeding, playtime, giving oral medications, and light grooming. Whether your pet needs a cozy cuddle buddy, a fun playmate, or someone to keep their routine on track while you’re away, I’m here to make sure they’re safe, happy, and loved. I am working part-time so I have some extra time in my schedule! I am flexible during the week and have my weekends open with full availability! When I care for pets in their own home, I keep their routine as normal as possible. I’ll handle feeding, fresh water, litter box or potty breaks, walks, playtime, light grooming, and any meds they need. I’m happy to send updates and photos so you know your pets are safe and happy. :) I always treat my clients’ homes with respect and leave things just as tidy as I found them.

“Rongyuan kept us updated and informed during her visits with Niko. They both got along well and Rongyuan was a quick learner while being taught how to express Nikos bladder. Thank you for watching Niko!”

About: I'm currently taking a gap year before college to train full-time as a competitive rock climber. When I'm not traveling the world to compete, though, I enjoy spending time with pets and make sure they're cared for! I have two pandemic cats and have fostered my fair share of dogs and puppies. My schedule is very flexible as I can plan climbing training around bookings. I'm very detail oriented and will make sure your pet gets everything they need!

About: I’ve cared for pets most of my life. I have experience with feeding, walking, and handling shy or energetic pets. I treat every animal like family and prioritize their comfort, safety, and happiness. Whether it’s a quick potty break or an extended stay, I provide reliable, loving care every time. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I plan my schedule around walks, feedings, and check-ins, making sure each pet gets personalized attention. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday playtime, or evening check-ins, I’m consistent, flexible, and committed to keeping pets happy and cared for throughout the week. When doing walks or check-ins, I always follow the pet’s routine and any specific instructions from the owner. I double-check doors, leashes, and harnesses for safety before every walk. I make sure pets feel calm and comfortable in their space, give them fresh water, attention, and plenty of love. I respect every home like it’s my own and always aim to build trust with both pets and their owners.

About: I grew up with three dogs in the house! They were my wonderful furry siblings for 18 years and taught me how to care for them at all stages of their lives. I am comfortable caring for puppies and senior dogs. I have been pet sitting off and on since childhood for a variety of animals including cats, fish, rodents, reptiles, chickens, goats and a pig! Any additional pets won’t scare me off! If you would like some basic training or training up-keep, I am happy to do so. I can’t wait to meet your furry friends! I currently work at a day job and can only offer Fridays and Saturday mornings for walks and drop-ins. I would love to open up my availability to include more days of the week if I can schedule enough pets to support myself on those days. In my home, we have a large, fenced property where your dog would get to spend a fun day outdoors with supervision. The yard is a mix of dirt and grass with plenty of shaded area for rest. If I come to your property, I will follow set rules and schedules. I can clean up after your pet, make sure they have water and food, and administer medication if needed. My walks are typically 15-20 minutes and drop ins are 30-45 minutes.

About: I have taken care of cats, dogs, and fish my whole life whether they are my own or if they belong to a friend or neighbor. I am confident that I can take care of any animal when provided directions. I am free to take care of pets any time. I usually work as a ski instructor in the winter and keep the rest of the year open to to travel, pet sit, etc. I read and follow all instructions provided by the owner. I take care of the home and animals like they are my own. I also make sure to leave the house very clean when I leave.

About: I am centrally located by I-5 in a house with a fenced back yard, without any access by other animals. My home is filled with love and positivity! Many years of dog sitting and dog walking for friends and neighbors. My teenage daughter and I are the ultimate dog lovers and it shows, we are always on time, follow their diets and walks are as long as possible. We are very flexible to accommodate your beloved baby’s needs. Weekends are almost always available, evenings and nights, too. During the week days, it varies. Just ask! We have a fenced yard and a park next to our house. Whether walking or pet sitting, I always make sure the safety is number one priority.

About: With over 10 years of dedicated pet care experience, I’ve worked with animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities. From energetic puppies to gentle seniors, I understand the unique needs of each pet and tailor my care to make them feel safe, happy, and loved. Over the years, I’ve provided daily walks, overnight stays, medication administration, basic training reinforcement, and plenty of playtime and snuggles. My priority is treating your pet like family — giving them the same attention, patience, and affection I give my own. Pet care is a natural part of my everyday life. I structure my schedule so I have plenty of time for walks, playtime, feedings, and check-ins throughout the day. Whether it’s a morning stroll to start the day, midday cuddles, or an evening walk before bedtime, I make sure pets get consistent attention and care. Because I’m used to building my day around animal needs, I can be flexible with visits, drop-ins, and overnight stays to keep your pet’s routine as close to normal as possible. When caring for pets in your home, I focus on keeping their routine and environment just the way they like it. I follow your instructions closely for feeding, walks, playtime, and any special needs, so your pet feels safe and comfortable while you’re away. I take time to get to know their personality, offer plenty of affection, and make sure they get the exercise and attention they need. I also keep your home tidy, bring in mail or packages, and send regular updates with photos so you can relax knowing both your pet and your home are well cared for.

About: Hello! I’m Abrielle, 28 years old. I’ve grown up with pets my whole life! Fun fact: my family has always had at least 5 dogs at a time!

But now he is an outgoing bundle of joy who is officially a certified service dog! Go Theo!! I love walking dogs on trails, paths, hikes, or just around the block! I’m willing to walk, feed, bathe, cuddle, and love your dogs just as much as you(okay maybe not quite as much, but you get what I mean)!

Lots of outings or even staying in and relaxing if that’s what the day calls for.

Bambi C.
“Bambi's life with dogs began the day we brought her home from the hospital. By age 3, she was caring for Digger and Opus who were both senior dogs. By age 7, she was caring for Starlight and then we added Rascal and then we added Pips. Yes, there was a time when we had "3 many dogs". All three of those doggos lived well into their teens. Our dogs were always with us until the end so Bambi has had experience with giving medicine, changing doggie diapers and being patient. She knows what Nature's Miracle is and how to use it. By middle school, Bambi was caring for neighbor dogs when the neighbors would be gone for a couple days. She knew, by at least sight, all the dogs on our block and was sometimes responsible for shepherding them home again if they escaped their yards. Then around age 18 she began caring for Chica who came to us with some difficult arthritis issues. Chica is still with us and I've added Tofu to our pack. In addition to Bambi's knowledge and understanding of dogs, she is kind, compassionate and actually likes animals more than people. Plus she's reliable. Your pets will be loved by her and they will love her back.”
