Brooke was able to bump up our appointment time last minute. She was a life savor when I noticed our pup had started tearing her bed apart on our petcam and got over there asap! She is great with our pup and is very reliable and trustworthy — great sitter!

Alexa was great with my elder kitty. Normally she doesn't like new people and hides from anyone who isnt me, but with Alexa she came up to her and even ate a treat right out of her hand. Check ins were all prompt and she took the time to try to play with her each day in addition to making sure she was well fed and had a cleaned box.

About: I was the neighborhood baby/dog sitter for most of my teens and even now I do the occasional dog sitting for a week or so for family friends. I have taken care of dogs ranging from Chihuahuas to Great Danes. I recently started fostering kittens and have a newfound love for those little guys too! I’ve owned bunnies and hamsters, watched a snake, taken care of a bird. You name it I’m sure I’ve had some sort of experience with it! I’d be so happy to take care of your critter too <3 I work from home! Rest assured your little buddy will get lots of attention in my care. If they have a more strict letting out schedule that’s absolutely no problem! I have a small mix dog, with two friendly cats. I work from home and can spend more time than the average person with your pet. I have a non fenced in yard, but am happy to take out on walks or on their leash in my yard.

About: Hi! I’ve had dogs my entire life and truly understand that every pup is different. I trained my own stubborn Yorkie with patience and consistency, and I currently care for my senior Golden Retriever who has hip issues so I’m experienced with both energetic young dogs and gentle, slower-paced seniors. Whether your dog needs structured walks, positive reinforcement, or a calm and patient pace, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, understood, and happy every step of the way. I treat every dog like my own and always prioritize safety, communication, and making sure you feel completely comfortable while your pup is in my care. I’d love to meet your best friend! 🐶💛 Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I have a very open and flexible schedule. I prioritize staying active and structured in my days — I regularly go to the gym and attend Bible study — which allows me to consistently plan walks and drop-ins throughout the day. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening walks, including weekends, and I’m happy to accommodate last-minute or same-day requests when possible. As a lifelong dog owner, I understand how important trust is, and I treat every dog with the same patience and care I give my own.

About: I have a unique blend of experience that enables me to give the highest quality of care. I've been a pet mom for 15 years to dogs, cats, and pigs. I also founded and run an animal rescue since 2020. In addition, I spent a year training at a wildlife rehab facility. Essentially, I have devoted my life to making sure animals feel loved and cared for. Your precious baby will be in the best hands! I am very flexible with my schedule and am happy to work around what is best for you and your pets! I have plenty of time to make sure your babies are well cared for and have proper enrichment! I will come to you, so that your pet feels safe and happy in their own environment. Earning their trust is essential and very important to me. All companion animals deserve respect, to feel safe, loved, and have lots of enrichment.

About: As a lifelong animal lover with years of experience in pet care, I understand that every pet has their own unique needs. I pride myself on having a strong sense of animal behavior and adjusting care accordingly to each individual pet’s temperament. I have a great deal of experience with senior pets and/or pets with a strict medication regimen. I understand that these animals often need additional patience and compassion and I am always striving to reliably provide such care. This includes administering edible, topical, and injectable medications. I have experience with dogs of all shapes and sizes as well as cats and small animals (birds, fish, reptiles, etc) so you can rest assured that your beloved critters are in good hands! I do my best to be communicative so I am always willing to discuss any additional details or concerns with my clients. My main goal in pet care is to provide reliable and respectful service that keeps your furry friend happy and gives you peace of mind in knowing they are properly cared for while you are away. I hope that I get to meet you and your pets very soon! Pet care is currently my main focus so my weekly schedule is almost always open. I am extremely flexible with scheduling which means I will be available to do reoccurring visits or extended pet sitting if need be. I have my own transportation so I am happy to make visits that are a bit out of my area as well. I have worked in professional pet care for 7+ years which has including both daily dog walking and overnight house-sitting. Being respectful of my client’s pets and their homes is of utmost importance to me. As well as pet sitting I am more than happy to take on other house-sitting responsibilities such as watering plants and bringing in mail/packages. I always appreciate strong communication and always do my best to provide prompt updates while you are away

About: I come from a long line of dog lovers. I have a friendly spoiled 2yr old pit bull who would love some four-legged companionship. I have a young child in the house so dogs do have to be child friendly. I have a small home and any dog that stays here would have free run of my home, that includes laying on couches and beds. I do not have much of a yard so dogs will have to be leashed and walked for potty time, otherwise inside the house they are free to play and do what ever their heart desires. Why I love dog sitting I have always been a dog lover. I have had at least two dogs as pets since I was 2 years old. My current dog Boo is like a child to me. I love to spoil her with walks, toys, treats, and car rides when ever possible. About my yard No backyard but have plenty of room and beautiful scenery for walks. My experience administering medication Yes, I can adminster medication if needed. My dog is currently on three different me ds after suffering a severe allergic reaction back in August.

Victoria has been great with Sierra. She was able to make a very shy 4 month old puppy feel comfortable and happy right away. Now Sierra gets so excited when Victoria comes to let her out, walk her and play with her. Communication has been great and she’s always on time to let Sierra out. Looking forward to Sierra having a long-term loving pet sitter.

About: I fell in love with dogs ever since my grandma took me with her to get a husky. Bravo felt like mine and i’ve been helping her take care of him since I was 8 I am a college athlete and spend a lot of time training. I am pretty flexible with my schedule now and I believe this can be too! In a client’s home, I respect the pet’s routine and the owner’s instructions carefully. I will treat their home like it’s my own, keeping it tidy and clean. I will be communicative, giving updates and pictures. My goal is to make your fur baby feel relaxed and loved in whichever environment they are in.

About: Ive owned so many variety's of pets from cats and dogs to gerbils, hamsters, mice, and turtles from 8-18 years old. I love animals and will always put their well-being first in any situation. I am currently a student at Fox working towards my Veterinary Technicians License. I speak Spanish and English! I am currently a full time student-but am available between the hours of 5pm-9pm after school hours and available between 6am-8pm on weekends. I know precisely how to read and animals body language and know when something is wrong. An animal can let me know when they feel uncomfortable and I can let the owner know right away. I have handled many shelter animals and pets and can know when something is not right or if they feel uncomfortable.

About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life. My first dog, Buddy, got me through some awkward stages in my adolescence. Moved on to two loving beauties, Pit/Pointer and a Great Dane/Mastiff . Heartbreak as we said goodbye to our babies, but now we snuggle with our cuddle bug Blaze and our Great Dane puppy, Daisy May. My family and I have also watched and cared for other dogs, earning trust and loyalty with families and their fur babies. I am fortunate enough to be home by 3:45pm every day. Being a special education teacher, I get to enjoy my breaks and days off at home. Caring for animals is our top priority in our house. This means, constant play time, walks, and lots of cuddles. We keep our routine of feeding and walking any dogs that are at our home. We have two of our own dogs, Black Lab and a Great Dane, both are the sweetest and have always been around other dogs and children, with no concerns.

Emily did an awesome job doing drop-in visits with Sierra. She is great with communication, came for a meet n greet first and followed instructions for the visits. Sierra absolutely loved having her come over to play fetch in the yard, she got belly rubs, fed her treats and made sure she had fresh water before she left. I would absolutely have Emily again…she did a great job all around!

Brandon was absolutely fantastic! He took wonderful care of our pets and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. He was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about our animals as if they were his own. We loved receiving updates and knowing everything was going smoothly. Coming home to happy, well-cared-for pets made all the difference. It’s not easy trusting someone with your furry family members, but Brandon exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend Brandon to anyone looking for a dependable, caring, and professional pet sitter. We will definitely be using his services again in the future!

Brandon provided exceptional service, and I would highly recommend him. He went above and beyond to ensure our pet, Bruno, was well cared for, and we truly couldn’t have chosen a better sitter. Despite the short notice, Brandon made himself available, which allowed us to proceed with our trip when we thought it might not be possible. He checked on Bruno in our home, and we felt completely comfortable and confident having him there. We are very grateful to have found Brandon and would confidently recommend him to anyone in need of a reliable, trustworthy, and dedicated pet sitter.
