“Hailey was really sweet and Kookie liked her! He is a bit shy to newcomers, but she was able to coax him out from under the bed upon arrival.”


“Tiffany was amazing! She left detailed notes and pictures of her visits which I loved! In addition, she vacuumed any mess my cat made. Will definitely be using her in the future!!”


“Could not have asked for a better person to check in on my pupper while I was out of town for a few days. She was punctual and considerate, took care to be observant of my dog’s behavior and keep me apprised.”


“Oline was an absolute joy to work with! She was prompt to respond and super flexible. Our golden retriever loved her dearly and we will be requesting her again!”


“Rezvan did a great job and was very personable. I got updates when she was en route to my place as well as photos when she was at my place. Would use her again. She even watered my plants for me which I appreciated.”


About: Please be mindful of drop off and pick up when scheduling so before 7AM and after 4:30PM are the best times for me. I’ve cared for friends dogs as well as my own. I’m a naturally caring person and love all animals. I treat them as my own. My time is also very precious and I understand that things come up but if I do not receive a response after request or it expires then I will not be able to accommodate later. Respectfully I accept bookings fairly quickly so if you request multiple sitters please let me know. My schedule is changing so walks and potty breaks will be adjusted. However I am still able to provide care as I do with my own fur baby. I stay in a condo but I have two bedrooms. There’s plenty of space when it comes to cages, food and just relaxation for your pet.

“What a great experience we had with Jennifer! Our dog came home very happy and content. Jennifer has a natural way with dogs and we will book her again.”


“Christy is amazing. She kept me up to date with what Shy was doing. Very thorough, kind, patient, and professional. Christy treated Shy with so much love and care, my Shy may leave me for Christy.. lol. In all seriousness. Christy was awesome with my baby going above and beyond to ensure that everyone was comfortable and Shy was good hand. I will be re-booking!”


About: I bring a warm, caring energy and a genuine love for every pet like they’re my own. Whether your pup is full of zoomies or your senior dog needs a little extra TLC, I’ve got the patience, experience, and heart to match their needs. I’m great with routines, gentle with training, and quick to pick up on each pet’s unique personality. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and sizes, and I’m confident with everything from giving meds to reinforcing positive behavior. I’m a firm believer in belly rubs, long walks, and making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Basically? You can think of me as your pet’s new favorite human—besides you, of course! Pet care fits perfectly into my daily and weekly routine because I genuinely love being around animals. I plan my day around their needs—whether that means early morning walks, mid-day potty breaks, or cozy evening playtime and snuggles. I’m flexible and organized, so I make sure every pet gets the attention, exercise, and love they need to feel secure and happy. Caring for pets doesn’t feel like a chore—it’s the best part of my day! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, my goal is always the same: to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well-cared for. In my home, I create a calm, clean, and cozy environment where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed. I stick to their usual routine—feeding times, walks, playtime, and bedtime—to keep things familiar. I have designated spaces for naps, play, and quiet time, and I always supervise closely to make sure they feel secure and happy. In your home, I care for your pets with the same level of attention and respect. I follow your instructions closely, maintain their daily schedule, and provide plenty of love and interaction. I’m mindful of your space, and I always keep things tidy. I also provide regular updates with photos and notes, so you can feel confident knowing your pet is in great hands while you’re away.

About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 10 years and bring a calm, patient energy that animals naturally respond to. I’m comfortable with all ages and temperaments. From energetic puppies to sweet senior pets who need a little extra TLC.

I’m flexible during the week for drop-ins, walks, and overnight care, especially in the mornings, midday, and evenings. I plan my days around each pet’s needs and make sure I’m fully present during every visit. Whether it's a short walk or an overnight stay, your pet will always be my top priority. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. When caring for pets in your home, I respect your space and follow all instructions closely, from feeding routines to leash preferences and medication.

Working from home allows me to provide consistent care, attention, and flexibility for pets throughout the day. I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to provide a lot of attention. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take time to get to know each pet’s routine, preferences, and personality so I can create a calm, familiar environment for them.

“easy to work with, communicative, and trustworthy”


About: I grew up with pets all of my life. We had a litter of dogs throughout the years: Blanco, Reina, Petey, Holly, and Peanut. As a teen, neighbors entrusted me with house and pets sits during their vacations. My neighbors and friends entrust me with their pets in work trips and vacations. I work remotely as a Consultant, so I am pretty flexible and available. I can often reschedule meetings and flex my deadlines which means I am available for breaks to play and care for your pets needs. I keep in communication with pet parents with updates, photos, and any changes I note. I understand what it's like entrusting someone else with your babies. I get up pretty early for work and I am able to flex as a Consultant. I can adjust my schedule to your pets' needs throughout the day. I make sure pets are kept in the yard or crates if need be. I ensure they are kept clean and nourished. I prefer to provide services in your home, to ensure comfortability for the pets in familiar surroundings. I want your pets to feel as comfortable as when you are there.

“Jill was amazing! She kept me updated. Showed up around the same time each day even tho I told her it didn’t matter. She loves on them and played with them. I will be definitely continue using her when I’m out of town!”



“Rachel did a great job!”


About: Ever since I was born, my family has owned pets - mostly cats and dogs. When I was about 7 years old, I adopted a kitten of my own. Since then, I’ve owned a guinea pig, a cat, and hermit crabs. I also have experience with walking and house-sitting for dogs and cats. I work part-time at Visionworks, so I have a flexible schedule. I'm usually available evenings and mornings. On my days off, I am also able to housesit / pet sit throughout the day. Since my work schedule often changes, please contact me for specific availability. I would love to come visit your pet, feed them, and help them with potty breaks as needed. While I am not able to watch your animal at my own home, I am happy to come to your house for drop-ins or overnight stays with your pets.

About: I’m a dog mom of two, and have a special place in my heart for large breeds. No dog too big, no dog too small! I’ve had my boys for 9 and 5 years. I can’t wait to meet yours! After 9 and before 6 pm are best for me, but I can work to make earlier and/or later work if given advanced notice. On weekends I can be even more flexible. Whether your pup and I play around in a fenced in backyard, or take a walk through the neighborhood, whether your baby needs five medications twice a day or none, you know your pup best and I’ll gladly make sure each one gets personalized care!

Nesreen J.
“Nesreen looked after my two Pomskys while I was away from town for a week. Nesreen is the best pet care provider I've ever had. For instance, I don't like my dogs to sit on my couches, so I tried a few other people before Nesreen and my dogs started jumping on the couches when I came back, so I know they didn't follow my wishes. However, Nesreen followed all of my rules and made the best use of the time I had for feeding my dogs and bringing them outside. I would 100% recommend Nesreen.”
