Amber did a great job. She was very communicative with us, sending pictures and messages throughout the weekend. Shadeaux seemed very relaxed and happy when we got home. We would definitely book her again!

About: Hi! My name is Nidia 🙂I’m a dependable, caring cat lover who works remotely, so I’m able to give cats plenty of attention, companionship, and consistent care throughout the day. Whether your cat is playful, shy, or independent, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Regular updates, gentle care, and extra love always come free! 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my lifestyle because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and creating a calm, caring environment for them. Since I work remotely, I have the flexibility to provide consistent attention, playtime, feeding schedules, and companionship throughout the day. Caring for pets is something I truly enjoy, and it’s rewarding to help pet parents feel confident their pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for while they’re away. When caring for dogs in their owner’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I provide feeding, fresh water, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention based on your dog’s needs and personality. I also make sure your home stays clean and respected while you’re away. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, or needs extra patience, I provide calm, dependable care to help them feel safe and comfortable in their familiar environment.

I can’t recommend Valerie enough! She watched my dog, for 3 days and did an amazing job. Hope can be a little particular with her routine and has some hip issues, but Valerie was so caring and attentive — she followed all my instructions perfectly and made sure Hope was comfortable, happy, and well-loved the whole time. Valerie kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear Hope felt safe and cared for, and I really appreciate how responsible and thoughtful Valerie was with every detail, from playtime to feeding to making sure Hope didn’t overdo it on the stairs. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Valerie again — she’s trustworthy, kind, and truly treats your pet like her own. Thank you so much, Valerie, for taking such wonderful care of Hope!

Steve and Wanda have been “baby sitting” my animals for a few times now but never as long as this trip we took for more than 30 days. They were awesome and looked after our animals as their own and also lived in our home and looked after everything like we would do ourselves. My neighbours will miss them I think … lol! They are definitely part of our community and I will ask them to look after my animals over and over as long as they can. Thank you Steve and Wanda for the way you leave my home, it is a pleasure returning and everything and everyone is happy and just great. I can recommend Steve and Wanda if you would like peace of mind that your animals will be loved and looked after like yourself. I am so grateful to them, thank you!

About: I’ve cared for dogs for years and have experience with different breeds, sizes, and energy levels. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, crate time, and basic grooming. I’m patient, attentive, and I’ll send regular updates so you always know how your pup is doing I have a very randomly organized schedule because I am a travel nurse that works night shift. So I am available most of the time during the day Whether in my home or yours, I focus on safety and structure. I follow your written instructions, keep pets on-leash outside unfenced areas, and make sure doors and gates stay secure. I’m mindful about feeding, treats, and household hazards, and I’m happy to do meet-and-greets for comfort and fit.

My schedule is open and flexible at this time. My lifestyle has allowed for me to maintain a pretty open schedule and take work as needed.

About: Hi! My name is Jordan, and I’ve taken care of animals my entire life, i’m an animal lover as they say. We have had 3 dogs growing up: 2 boxers and a great dane; and now i have a dane of of my very own. I have excellent experience in animal care. Friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and care in any way possible for their animals. I work from home and my job is INSANELY flexible. I come and go as i please for work; and make my own schedule/hours. So attending to your pet all day is no issue what so ever. I am a die hard animal lover, so I would care for your pet the way I care for mine. The only “downside” to my in house dog sitting, in your home; is that my pup would need to come with me. He is large but very gentle and gets along with anything you can think of. He is house trained, and EXTREMELY well mannered. He has been around dogs, cats, horses, cows, chickens, alpacas, llamas, and yes; a camel. He is my barn pup so he’s very easy going and a gentle giant. I have experience in giving oral meds by hand, and adding meds onto food etc. I have a picky eater, so if you have a picky eater and need someone who can manage, i am your girl! I would rather hand feed your dog than them just not eat due to stress/anxiety. I am a picture guru, so you will receive pics even if you don’t ask for them. I only ask that you are honest with me when it comes to the needs your pet has and the needs you as an individual expect. I have been in the customer service industry for a very very long time; and communication is key, ALWAYS. Now that i’ve written a novel, i am easy to get ahold of with any questions, comments, or concerns! I look forward to caring for your critters! I am a full time work from home employee. I have full access to a very large front yard outside of my apartment complex, as well as a dog park 2 minutes away. I am able to feed at the given time suggested by clients as well as tend to potty needs as well. My job is beyond flexible, so pet care is definitely no issue in my home. I am able to care for your pets by providing multiple updates throughout your pets stay, as well as plenty of pictures. I am able to follow specific guidelines given to me by clients to ensure their pet has a safe stay at my home

About: I'm an active volunteer with a local animal shelter, where I work hands-on with dogs of many ages, sizes, temperaments, I have experience caring for shy, anxious, high-energy, and sensitive dogs, and I'm comfortable with reading canine body language, building trust, and providing calm, reliable care tailored to each dog's needs. Pet care is part of my regular routine through weekend availability when I'm off work. I plan my schedule around providing attentive, consistent care, including walks, feeding, enrichment and companionship, so each dog receives focused, unhurried attention. I care for pets by following their established routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and preferred activities. I take time to build trust, especially with shy or anxious pets, by moving at their pace and reading their body language. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and calm, attentive interaction, whether that means exercise and playtime or quiet companionship. In a client's home, I respect their space and ensure pets feel comfortable and secure in their familiar environment.

About: I grew up on a small farm raising a variety of animals including dogs and cats. Sometimes what seems to be a mean animal is just a misunderstood animal that need extra time and attention and love. I have a pretty open schedule and would like to build relationships with animals and fellow animal lovers alike. Right now I only do other low commitment jobs like DoorDash and have time to fit you into my schedule. This is kind of a good and bad thing about me but I love an animal that loves food, and I enjoy rewarding them with treats for good behavior. I promise not to fatten up your pets too much though.

Alyssa recently stayed at out house and took care of our pup Emma. We rated her 5 stars because 6 stars wasn’t an option. She and Emma got along great and she kept us informed the entire time. She took immaculate care of our place and we think Emma was a little sad to see her leave. We look forward to having her come back.

About: As a devoted & experienced SAHM, I have proudly cared for a variety of animals for over 15 years. Dogs, cats, rabbits - you name it! Families entrust their furry companions to my care, often rebooking my services due to their satisfaction & peace of mind. From feeding and exercise to cozy snuggles and playtime, I will create a joyful, nurturing environment where your pets thrive & your family feels confident in my care. I am able to seamlessly incorporate pet care into my daily/weekly routines because my schedule is often flexible. I ensure all of your pets needs are met with consistency & love. I prioritize their well-being alongside my family responsibilities. In my home, I provide a warm and welcoming environment for pets to feel comfortable and cherished. I designate safe areas for play and relaxation, ensuring they have ample space to roam and explore. Whether it's dog walking, house sitting, or pet daycare, I tailor my services to suit the specific needs of each pet and client. For dog walking, I take pups on enjoyable strolls in the neighborhood or nearby parks, providing them with exercise and fresh air. If house sitting is required, I ensure the pets receive round-the-clock care, maintaining their routines, and offering companionship in the comfort of their own home. In the case of pet daycare, I create an engaging atmosphere filled with toys, interactive play, and socialization opportunities, allowing pets to have a fun-filled day while their owners are away. Regardless of the service provided, I prioritize safety, hygiene, and regular communication with pet owners, ensuring they are informed and at ease throughout the entire process.
