About: Hi there! I'm a proud cat parent of 3+ years, and caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. From feeding and litter cleaning to playtime and snuggles, I make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and right at home while you're away. While I don’t have a dog of my own (yet!), I’m confident in my ability to give your pup the same level of care and attention. Every visit is filled with love, patience, and thoughtful updates to give you peace of mind. Your fur babies are in kind, capable hands 🐾💛 I’m a full-time college student and also work part-time, but I always make time for pet care! I’m available Monday through Thursday after 4 PM and can occasionally accommodate weekend bookings with some notice. I own two sweet cats—Luna, who’s calm and quiet, and Star, who’s playful and full of energy! I have tons of cat toys and love keeping them happy and loved. My whole family are cat lovers, and we treat our pets like they’re part of the family. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I always make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable.

“Jasmine is good and reliable person who helped me with my dog, when I needed to find someone to watch Remy last minute before my niece's wedding out of state. Definitely recommended.”

I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets to care for. I have two bearded dragons, two cats, one dog, and one fish. In the mornings I go to the gym and after I’m pretty much open throughout the day until school starts, which is in the beginning of January. Feeding and watering animals,Playing with them and keeping them company, Walking the dogs, Grooming and brushing the animals' coats, Changing the cat's litter box, Providing health care if necessary.

About: I have many years of experience with pet sitting. This includes feeding, overnight care, taking them for walks, cleaning up after them, etc. I have experience with both cats and dogs. I am an elementary school music teacher. I love being outdoors and currently walk at least 3 miles myself each day. Having dogs to walk would work with what I already do on my own time, plus bring me so much enjoyment. I am reliable and can provide references. I look forward to hearing from you and working with you! Thank you so much for taking the time to read this! -Ciara Smith I work as an elementary school music teacher. I have summers off so I have a lot of flexibility in my availability. Otherwise during the schoolyear, I work until 3pm and then I am free all night. I do not care for pets in my own home.

About: I have experience with all different dog breeds and sizes. I know great helpful training techniques. Also, I grew up living with dogs up until now. I have a full time Hybrid job. I work from home 3 days a week and the workload has been fairly light. I currently live with no furry friends and am missing the connection with them. I want to hold off on adopting right now so I thought the best way to fulfill my wants of having a dog will be through this app. I have no fenced in yard or much of a yard at all. My home is spacious though, so there is enough room for your pet to be comfortable and play indoors. I have 3 reptiles that will stay in their tanks and do not cause disruptions. They also love watching other animals from afar.

“Art is very quick to respond to my requests and my puppy loves spending his time with him whenever he comes to take him for his walks. Very professional and courteous, I will continue to use him.”

About: I've had pets my entire life- cats and dogs both! I love animals, and love taking care of them. If my pets are happy, then I'm happy! I'm self-employed, so my schedule is wide open and set by none other than myself. I can make myself available as needed, and am able to change plans on short notice. I care for pets as if they're my own. I love animals and spending time with them, and I'm always sure to be respectful of whoever's home it is that I'm in.

About: I have taken care of friends and family and fellow neighbors pets ranging from yorkies to bull mastiffs. I was responsible for taking them out, feeding, play time, walking, and just spending time with them. I love animals no matter how big or small they are. I work part time at night. I am very flexible with pet sitting needs. I have no rigid schedule which makes it easier for me to take of your pets. I always make sure to keep a eye on your loved pets and make sure all their needs are met. Guarantee you’ll come home to a happy dog!

About: I love animals and have a pretty flexible schedule for boarding, care-taking, or walking services. I love being outdoors but am also a home body at heart, which is why boarding is very fun for me. I’m a teacher, so summers and breaks during the year are great times I can commit a lot of for pet care. I also get off work earlier than most, so I would be around for early afternoon walks. I’m home most weekends which is when boarding would work best for me. I don’t have any other pets at my home so there would not be any issues with other animals. I am also very trustworthy if needed to be at a client’s home.

“Haily was absolutely wonderful, and I can’t recommend her enough! She took care of my 14 year old Maltese Poodle, Sisco, for a week while I was in Colorado, walking him twice a day and making sure he was fed and well cared for. Normally, I have family watch him because he tends to get anxious when I’m away, so I was a little nervous leaving him with someone new. Haily completely put my mind at ease. She was so kind and patient with him, and it was obvious from all the updates, photos, and detailed commentary that she genuinely cared about him. Seeing how happy and comfortable Sisco looked in every picture meant so much to me. It made being away from him so much easier, and I knew he was in great hands. Thank you, Haily, for taking such amazing care of my little guy. I would absolutely book with you again!”

For my services, house sitting = staying overnight in your home and caring for the pet between 5pm - 8am and 1 drop in around noon. Any additional needs require additional drop-in costs because I am not able to stay in your home the entire day (I must care for my own pet and another client daily).

About: Have always had dogs my entire life. Love to play and cuddle with women's best friend. Taking walks along the way getting our steps in and enjoying the nice day. Have raised several types of dogs. A saint benard and a few Labies and now I have a vezla named Jake from state farm. That was his name at the shelter when my son found him. It was to cute to change. Our pets are our babies. They Also need some great sitters and I would love to help take care of some fur babies. I occasionally take care of my sons dogs when they go out of town. One is a Chihuahua and one is a pity. I have to say that the pit bull is sweeter then the Chihuahua lol.

I feel completely comfortable with any medications or extra care your fur baby may require. Over the years I have cared for many of my friend's and neighbor's pets when they have been out of town. I have also groomed friend's and neighbor's animals, including nail trimming, toothbrushing and ear cleaning. I love to walk, and be outside, a game of fetch, yes please!

I have 2 cats that have grown up around dogs and kids, they are both up in age, but are super friendly and very chill. I have a fenced in yard. I love to walk and play catch. I don't mind having to clean up an accident, and feel comfortable caring for animals that require some extra TLC.
