About: I've grown up with multiple pets, mainly cats and dogs. I have such a love for them. I was a Veterinary Assistant for 20 years and am proficient in administering medications and subcutaneous fluids. I have provided pet sitting services for 30 years, in home stays and visits. I would love to care for your precious pets, including donkeys, cows, etc. I am available to care for your pets with drop in visits 7 days a week from 8 am -6 pm and overnights stays 7 days a week. I will care for your pets as you do. I don't mind silly requests as my own pets have their quirks! Yes, they would be allowed to snuggle with me in bed at night!
“Charlayne did an outstanding job taking care of my pups during my extended vacation. She was easy to work with, accommodating and has great customer service skills. I will definitely use her again and would highly recommend her to anyone!”

About: I’ve taken care of my chocolate lab along with the help of my parents, albeit we have had some issues just as every pet parent we still manage to get through everything and have a great time! It’s part time and my own hours so i can manage to make things work freely with me personally, that make things a lot easier for me as well considering I am tackling college! At my house we have a fence that keeps our dog in or we let him stay inside. It all depends on what the dog feels more comfortable with and I’m more than willing to help accommodate them.
“Alyssa was fantastic. Very communicative with updates, on time and my dog loved her. She watched my dog for 7+ days and it gave me a peace of mind having her take care of my fur baby”

About: As a dedicated pet parent myself, I understand how important it is to have someone you can count on. I treat every animal as if they were my own. I’m here to give you peace of mind and your pet a familiar, comforting presence until you return. Whether it’s playtime, snuggles, daily walks, or quiet companionship, I’ve got your pet’s needs and heart covered. My schedule is very flexible, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine.

Just let me know what they’re used to, I’m here to keep their days feeling familiar and stress-free! When caring for pets in their own homes, I focus on keeping their routines as normal and comforting as possible. I take time to learn their favorite spots, habits, and daily needs so they feel safe, loved, and at ease in your absence. From feeding and playtime to snuggles and quiet companionship, I treat your home with the same respect I give your pet — calm, clean, and peaceful. My goal is to make your time away feel seamless for them and worry-free for you.
“Adelaide did an amazing job with even our most anxious pup. She took her time and gave them all the time they needed to run and have social interaction. She kept us updated and shared pictures and videos to help ease our worries about leaving the pups behind. We will be using her again!”

About: I love each animal as if they were my own. I have experience in taking care of cats and dogs of all ages. I have patience, compassion and a lot of love to give to animals.

I have a fenced yard and two dogs who live at home currently with me, a 12 year old Cocker Spaniel and a 4 year old Catahoula Australian shepherd mix.

Your pets will be treated like family in my care, and I’m happy to provide updates, photos, playtime, walks, and plenty of affection to keep you at ease while you’re away! 🐾 I work from home so I am actively able to provide daily outside playtime and potty time during the day and some much needed sun bathes for the sun bathers. I am able to provide a good feed schedule as well treat times! It is a pleasure to be able to work from home and effectively care to the needs of each furbaby!

About: I've had animals in my life since birth, literally. My mom is a veterinarian and raised me to be just like her. It worked 😅 I am an aspiring veterinarian with a lifetime of experience when it comes to caring for the furry, scaly, aquatic, or just different members of the family!

I currently work as a full-time veterinary technician in Midlothian. Most of my "free time" centers around the weekends but I do have more limited availability during the week as well. No matter where I am, I vow to provide any pet with the utmost amount of care. I specialize in belly rubs, butt scratches, and laser pointers. Also, if you want your pet's nails trimmed or anal glands expressed, I can do that too 😂

“Charlene is terrific! So patient and kind with my two crazy dogs. Couldn’t ask for a better, more loving person to check in on them. She has been more than willing to spend time with my large dog who has terrible anxiety and isn’t great with strangers but he took to her immediately which is how I knew I made the right choice when choosing her as a sitter. So thankful we found her!”
