She sent regular updates and pics, and I felt very comfortable with her caring for them in my home. I was extremely impressed and happy with her and her service. Highly recommend her!”

“Jarett was wonderful. Freya was unfamiliar with him at first but they are now friends. We will happily have him stay with her again. He kept us informed of her well-being, which is always a big relief when you’re away from home.”

“We are so happy to have found Erin. She spent the weekend with Koda and Parker while we were busy with our son's wedding and we didn't worry one bit because we knew they were being taken care of and loved. We came home to 2 happy dogs and a clean house! Thank you so much Erin.”

“We had such a great experience with Courtney! She stayed at our home and took wonderful care of both our cat and dog while we were away. It was so reassuring to get regular updates and photos. Grateful to have found someone so trustworthy and caring—highly recommend and hope to book her again soon!”

“Karie was absolutely wonderful caring for our two dogs while we were away for the weekend. She was always sending photos of the dogs and making sure they were well cared for. We would highly recommend Karie for all of your animal needs!”

Alexandra K.

“She was so nice and sweet with our fur babies. Our youngest dog Deacon is every timid and nervous of new people, but he warmed up to her so quickly he was sleeping right next to her the same night she stayed. My husband and I have been recommending her to everyone in the family and anyone on here looking for a pet sitter.”

About: I've taken care of dogs, cats, and many other kinds of animals ever since I was about 8 years old. I grew up with many animals in my household and I couldn't imagine it any other way as animals are such a big part of my life. I love going on walks and being outside, just like most dogs do too! Also, I have taken care of dogs of all ages including puppies and senior pets. I currently do not have a job so I am free for booking any day! I also do not have any preferences for time as I am willing to make whatever times work for you! There's many things I do to take care of a pet. I would make sure the pet is fed (and a treat here and there of course). I would also spend time giving the pet tons of attention. This can include playing with toys, walking them, or even just petting and sitting with them. I'd also make sure the pet is taken outside as often as the owner would like.

“Provided updates throughout the stay and was very easy to communicate with, taking good care of my pup who is recovering from a surgery!”

Adrian B.

“Brittany was great! She was perfect for giving Shadow attention and making him feel comfortable. She also sent pictures and communicated with me regularly while staying with him. I would definitely use her again!!”

Dunya K.

“Thank you for caring for our pets again! Shane is the best! We never worry about anything. He gave meds to our one cat twice a day with no issues.”

About: Hi there! My name is Jo, and I bring years of hands-on animal care experience to every pet sitting job I take on. I’ve worked as a veterinary technician and also spent time as a zoo employee, so I’m no stranger to animals of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments! Whether your pet needs special medical care, a calming presence while you're away, or just lots of love and play, I provide responsible, knowledgeable, and compassionate care tailored to their needs. I’m comfortable administering medications, handling senior pets, and caring for exotic or less common animals as well. Animals have always been at the heart of my work and my passion. When you trust me with your pet, you can feel confident they’re in capable and caring hands. I’d love to meet you and your furry (or scaly or feathered!) family member! I'm free after 4:00pm on the weekdays and anytime on weekends. I take care of my own furbabies, so I am already in the routine of caring for animals. I have three furbabies myself, so I'm well-versed in the different personalities each animal can have. I don't provide a one-size-fits-all approach to caring for animals - I tailor my care to the specific needs of each pet.

About: Worked at petsmart for 2 years in college in pet care. Learned to care for cats, dogs, reptiles and horses at a young age. Have owned cats, dogs and reptiles. Knowledge of medications and how to administer. I work from home and my hours are flexible, am able to provide pet care that is round the clock, Monday through Friday and on weekends. For drop ins on weekdays, I can come in the morning or later evening. Large yard, locks on all doors and windows. Would keep animals separate from my own animals if at my house. Never leave animals unsupervised in the home

About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I can remember, I grew up with many dogs and cats, and helped to take care of them by, walking, feeding, bathing, and playing with them. I have also helped out in the neighborhood by taking care of the neighbors pets while away. I absolutely love all animals! I have a 1 yr old cat her name is Luna, and a 9 yr old puppy her name is Charlie, whom are the biggest pieces of my heart! I currently work as a paraprofessional at a school, I love my job and enjoy every minute with the kids! I have a ton of patience, and I am very responsible. I would love to help you with your fur babies!! I’m currently working part-time as a paraprofessional with children, which means I have plenty of time to for your fur babies. I am a substitute paraprofessional, so I get called into work when needed, which also means I don’t have a set schedule. But the days I am not called in and the weekends I am available! I have a cat whom is not to fond of other pets, especially in her home, but I am 100% willing to come to you. I require you to have a leash and harness if you would like me to walk your pet, this way I can ensure the safety of your pet and mine as well. I will let your pets outside to play as long as you give the okay and ONLY if the yard is fenced in. I will ask questions about your pet to help me better understand them, and if there is anything you would like to ask me please do not be afraid!! I’m great with communication so I will communicate a lot with you about your pet. Before I pet sit your pet for the first time, I would like to spend some time getting to know your pet with you present first. If there is anything else you would like to know please do not hesitate to ask!!

About: My names Jessica, I have 3 dogs a beagle and a pit mix, a cat, and a rabbit of my own. As many know you can only have so many animals of your own. Which is why I would enjoy helping others care for their animals. And bonus, I get to see and interact with more animals. I had pets as a child and have had my dogs since they were puppies my oldest is ten, the youngest being 5. I worked while in nursing school so I know life gets busy and it’s nice to have a helping hand you can rely on to care for your animals. I’m a registered nurse and have been in nursing for 11 years. Although I have enjoyed nursing, doing some type of dog daycare, boarding or walking has always been a dream of mine. So allow me to love your pets as you do and help! Currently my schedule varies, but I work 2 or 3 12 hours shifts a week as a nurse. I have a fiancé, friend, and parents who have helped me with my animals during busy times or vacations. As for my own pets, my three dogs get fed morning and evening. My cat has an automatic feeder that portions her foods out because she has a sensitive stomach. My rabbit lives in his hutch and visits inside at times, he eats lots of veggies and his pellets. His favorite green is cilantro! Unlimited water for all the animals of course. When the weather allows I like to walk my dogs. In the summer I also enjoy taking my dogs on our boat and they enjoy it to the fullest. I am looking to offer pet sitting and walking. The pet sitting would include going to the clients home letting out, feeding, and playing with the animals twice per day, if any special circumstances we can discuss and potentially work something out, and also if an animal would require medication I can do that as well. I’m open to dogs, cats, and rabbits only because that is what I’m familiar with.

About: I have grown up with cats and dogs and I have had dogs during my adult life. I am an animal person who is attentive to each individual pets needs and personality. Patient, loving, and detail oriented. I'm here to provide great care when needed. I'm currently fully available for appointments and my hours are flexible. If my schedule changes, I will update this portion of the profile and give current clients an update. I don't plan on taking care of animals at my house but I am open to taking care of animals at your place. I will provide safe and loving care all within the guidelines provided.
