About: Lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience. I’ve provided in-home sitting, cared for friends’ pets, and have owned dogs my entire life. You can count on me for reliable, loving care—just like they’re my own. Hi! I’m currently on paternity leave from my full-time job, where I typically travel Monday through Thursday. With a bit more time at home right now, I’m looking to make some extra income doing something I truly enjoy—caring for dogs. I’ve owned dogs all my life, have in-home pet sitting experience, and have helped friends care for their pets over the years. Your pup will be in safe, caring hands. I care for pets in their own home, where they feel most comfortable and secure. I always follow the owner’s instructions and routines to ensure consistency and peace of mind. I’ve worked with dogs that require extra attention, including those with medical needs or those who don’t do well around other animals. My goal is to build trust, provide dependable care, and keep your dog safe and happy while you’re away.

“Alisa is doing such a wonderful job with Bella. Bella has separation anxiety and is doing wonderful with Alisa. Each walk seems to be getting easier for both! 😁 highly highly recommended!!”


About: My dog at home is very reactive and we have been with many trainers to calm him down. I have much experience with dogs like him and learned from trainers. I have sat for various owners over the last few years and always enjoy keeping animals company! I am a college student on my summer break! I have a very open schedule and would be open to helping anyone out at any time! I always make sure to have the pet's water and food stalked up and clean up the surrounding areas for the owner. I always make sure to leave the space looking better than when I arrived. I cannot house pets at my home due to my reactive animal but I am 100% willing to come to you!

About: I’ve cared for dogs with the energy of a horse and horses with the personality of a dog! Whether your dog loves to run for miles or prefers a more relaxed pace, I’m equipped to meet their needs. I understand that every dog is unique, and I provide personalized care to ensure they’re happy, healthy, and comfortable while you’re away. You can count on me to give your four-legged friend the attention they deserve! As a student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to spend the day with your pup! Whether your dog needs a run to burn off energy or a leisurely walk, I’m happy to accommodate their preferences. I’ll make sure they get the attention, exercise, and care they need. You can trust that your pet will be well taken care of, no matter what their energy level is! When I care for your pet in your home, I prioritize their comfort, security, and routine. I will follow any specific instructions you’ve provided, from feeding schedules to playtime preferences, ensuring that their environment remains consistent while you’re away. I’ll make sure they have plenty of attention, whether that’s through walks, playtime, or simply being there for cuddles. I’ll also take care of basic tasks around the house like bringing in mail, adjusting lights, or making sure everything looks as it should, so you can feel confident knowing your pet and home are in good hands. Your pet will be treated with love and respect, just as I would with my own!

About: Since the age of 10, I have cared for many animals, whether it be my own dog or a neighbors. I have experience with dogs, cats, and rabbits and I am not opposed to caring for another animal! Since entering college, I have been dog-sitting for many families and I am comfortable with staying at houses. I am currently home for the summer and am very flexible throughout the week. I am a college athlete so I have training at varying times of the day. However, I will be able to stop by and check on your pet before and after, not leaving them alone for too long! When caring for pets at a client’s home, I prioritize safety by following any specific instructions provided by the pet owner, including feeding and walking routines as well as medication if needed. I never leave a pet unattended outside unless it is in a fully fenced area.

About: Caring animal lover with over 10 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, currently I watch pets for friends and family while they are away, I always treat any in my care as my own, with safety being my top priority. I am available before and after work as well as weekends. I am flexible and can accommodate the needs of each individual pet and family. Keeping a pet safe in my care is always my top priority, pets in my care get regular potty breaks/walks, meals and lots of love and pets. Pets get my full attention.

About: I have a sweet beagle that was rescued 7 years ago. I am fully responsible for his care, including feeding, walking, bathing, nail trimming, etc. I always check him for ticks after visiting a park and know how to safely remove them. I enjoy going for long walks, especially in summer, so would be glad to give your dog exercise. My kids have had goats, rabbits, chickens, turkeys, and ducks, which are all fun to play with, and I would be glad to care for your less-typical pets, if needed. I have even cared for lizards and snakes. I am a teacher, so have loads of time available in the summer. During the school year, I am available most weekends and after 4 on weekdays. I always keep dogs on leash when walking them...you never know when a squirrel or other dog will come by or how they will react.

About: I have owned and cared for more than 50 animals in my 37 years 🥰 I currently have a 3 year old cat, a 1 year old cat, and a 5 month old cat. Sadly I recently lost my almost 12 year old dog to old age. I grew up with skunks, cats, dogs, hamsters, lizards, and more. I also have been fostering with local rescues for more than 10 years. Overall, I am just a big animal lover and find joy in watching other people's fur babies 🥰 I have a flexible work schedule that will allow me to help during the day on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. I work in a dog-friendly office so when I go into the office on Tuesday and Thursday I can bring your pup with me, if you're comfortable with that! Evenings, weekends, and overnights can also be arranged. If you need anything overnight I prefer to stay at your home with your pets so they are comfortable and not displaced. Let's discuss your needs! I am happy to follow whatever instructions you have for me to care for your furbabies! I know each pet is different. Generally, dogs go out to potty several times a day, as well as need fresh food and water daily. Cats also need fresh food and water daily, plus cleaning their litter boxes once a day.

About: I have two goldendoodles in my family and love them dearly! I’m looking to fill some time on my summer break with some sweet pups. I have the summer off because I am a teacher. Other than random plans with family and friends, I am mostly very free until mid August. I will explore the west side with your pups and keep them safe. I will make sure they walk closely with me and treat them with care!

About: In your absence, I will treat your pet as a member of my family. He/she will be as important to me as they are to you! I have rescued and cared for pets of all types for friends and family. I am a lifelong animal lover, and this is something that I truly enjoy doing. I have had pets my entire life from cats and dogs to rabbits, hamsters, fish, birds and even a baby lamb. Separating from your pets can be a difficult time when you are trusting their care to another individual. I will fill the gap for you while you are gone, with consistent reliable care. I am able to administer medication, walk/exercise your pets or just visit and play with them. I will keep you updated, if so desired. While you are gone, it is my goal, to allow you to rest easy, knowing that they will have daily loving care. I am currently working from home part time and i am able to make my schedule weekly. I will set my schedule around the needs of your pet. If there are any fluctuations (scheduled appointments) during my time with your pet, you will know in advance I care for my clients pets with the same love and attention that I care for my own . Each animal has its own likes , dislikes and routines. It is my job to meet the needs of that pet on the schedule that they are used to. When I am caring for somebody else’s pet, it is my top priority to make sure that they are cared for the same way you do. Separation can difficult for them too, I will ease that as much as possible by providing what they need.

“Erin is the best dog walker we could have asked for! She is patient and kind! Our little Beau Beau is curious about every little thing and she took her time to let him sniff and check things out. Our German Shepherd Charlie is not sure of other dogs so Erin made sure to comfort Charlie when other dogs were present on the walk. She sent some awesome pictures too so that we knew just how much fun our pups had! I will definitely be hiring her again in the future for my dog walking needs!”
