“Angelina was the absolute best with our fur babies! We have one blind dog and a dog that is not super keen on strangers but they warmed up to her so quickly. Her communication was top notch and we will definitely be using her again!”

About: I grew up surrounded by animals including dogs, cats, horses, and chickens which taught me how to care for every animal with patience and love from an early age. I am calm, dependable, and connect naturally with pets, even the more shy ones. I have experience caring for both energetic puppies as well as senior pets, including giving medications and following special routines which I do for my own senior dogs. I always treat every animal like family and make sure they feel cared for, happy, and safe while you are away. Pet care has always been a part of my daily routine, and I love spending time playing with, walking, and caring for pets. I am a recent college graduate currently searching for work which means I have plenty of time to devote to caring for your pets. I can provide care morning, afternoons, and evenings, and will happily adjust to your pet's needs and routine. I care for pets in their own home with much love and attention, following all instructions and routines closely in order to keep them at ease in the surroundings they know best. I prioritize their safety, happiness, and comfort while also treating your space and belongings with respect. Having cared for animals my whole life, I make sure every pet feels secure, loved, and well cared for while you are away so that they feel at ease.

About: I have over a year of hands-on dog care experience and genuinely love working with all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I make sure every dog feels safe, loved, and understood while their parents are away. From active pups who need long walks to calm seniors who need gentle routines, I adapt my care to each dog’s needs. What sets me apart is my reliability, attention to detail, and the amount of one-on-one time I give each dog. I follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and house rules exactly as instructed. I provide playtime, enrichment, exercise, potty breaks, and lots of affection to keep your dog relaxed and happy. I’m comfortable with puppies, high-energy dogs, shy or anxious dogs, and multi-pet households. You’ll always receive updates and photos so you can feel confident that your fur baby is getting loving, professional care. My pet care routine is structured around my full-time role at Labcorp (7 AM – 4 PM). I provide morning care before work, including feeding, walks, and medication if needed. After my shift, I return promptly for evening care, extended attention, walks, and overnight stays. Pets are never left without consistent care, and I provide regular updates and photos to ensure peace of mind. I prioritize safety, routine, and comfort when caring for pets in your home. I follow all instructions exactly as given feeding, walks, medications, and house rules to keep your pet on their normal routine. I always make sure pets are safe and secure, and I treat your home with respect by keeping it clean and locked. I also send regular updates and photos so you feel comfortable and connected while you’re away. Building trust with both you and your pet is very important to me.

About: I have been taking care of pets for over six years. I have cared for fish, cats, and dogs. I have a big dog myself so large dogs do not scare me. I am great with animals and am more than willing to do house sitting, day time check ins, walking, bathing, etc.! I am about to graduate from school so I will be home all the time and will be able to stop by for house visits or to hang out with pets all day. Though for things like walking dogs would prefer to do that in the morning in order to beat the heat! I have a large fenced in yard with one dog to keep others company. My dog is crate trained and is non aggressive. In the house there is no chemicals or other harmful substances that pets could access. Additionally most cabinets and such are baby proofed so cats or other small pets would not be able to get in or trapped.
About: i have had dogs since i’ve been 6 years old and have had 5 at one point in time ! I Love them so much I am currently working part-time at a Bath and Body works store but am also waiting for my state board test to have aesthetician license ! Always paying attention making sure there well fed and have water ! As well as play time to be outside and get some energy out !!
About: Over 20 years as a dog owner. I'm semi-retired. I've been watching friends' and friends of friends' pets for years. I've been the only house/dog sitter for a pair of Dalmatians for the last 5 years. I've handled puppies that are still working on becoming housebroken as well as senior dogs that need regular medication and extra care. I do in-home tech support/ IT work. When a customer's animals have warmed up to me, I've been asked if I did pet sitting as well. It feels good when the pet picks you. My working schedule is very flexible, I'm usuably able to adjust it to make sure I'm available to see to your pet's needs. If I commit to caring for your critters they will be my scheduling priority. I don't have pets in my own home. When house/pet sitting, besides feeding, walking and picking up after the pets I'm capable of handling household issues that might come up.
About: I’ve have experience caring for both cats and dogs of all ages and sizes. I currently have two 6 year old cats in my home, that I raised from kittens. Before them, I had a cat for 16 years and a beagle for nine years. As a child, we had multiple dogs and cats and there has been very little time I’ve spent in my life without a pet of some sort. I am open and flexible all days of the week as this is my only source of income. Same day appointments are also an option most days. I currently live in an apartment with my partner. Having a partner in my own home to be with our pets helps me to be more physically and mentally available for my clients, especially for house sitting jobs that may be long term.
About: My name is samantha, I love animals and I love to travel and im sure a lot of you do too. It is never fun leaving behind a family memeber but i'll make sure they are not only taken well care of, they'll have so much attention and fun they won't have time to miss you! Im comfortable giving medication, long walks, frequent updates, early trips to the dog park or late night trips. I can prepare a BARF meal or a kibble one. Ive worked with both cats and dogs, I always follow directions to last detail, your pets safety will be just as important if they were my own. Im very mello and relaxed, easy to get along with, and easy to reach.
“We were nervous about leaving our two cats alone for the first time! Taylor is such a lovely person and you can tell that she really cares about the animals. One of our cats was really scared when Taylor came to meet them (they normally are not around other people), but Taylor won Gigi over on the second day of the drop in visit! She took pics and it was great to get the report saying how they were doing. We will definitely book her again when we travel!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was a child. My grandmother used to breed Pomeranians, which is what got me started. I’ve always had dogs in my life and also worked for a boarding/training facility before covid. My neighbors always trust me to care for their dogs as well. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate weekday or weekend visits. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, or overnight stays, and I’m happy to adjust times to fit your dog’s routine. I keep pets safe, comfortable, and happy by following routines, supervising play, securing their environment, and giving love, attention, and care in a clean, calm space.
“Excellent sitter. Very responsive and follows directions. Very helpful with helping to watch my cats and making sure everything was taken care of while I was away. Will definitely be requesting Stasha’s help in the future.”


“We initially chose Tracey based on all her great reviews and returning clients. She was awesome taking care of our senior cat Brie. Tracey sent us daily updates with photos and videos. When our electricity was unexpectedly disrupted on a very hot day, she generously offered to take our cat to her home for care. This was truly going above and beyond her Rover requirements. We would not hesitate to hire Tracey again to care for any of our pets and we certainly plan to do so!”

I worked at a grooming/boarding facility as well. I have trained my own dogs and some friends dogs. I have also raised puppies and worked with professional training to better my own dogs.
