Dog Sitting Saint Francis

About: I've been around dogs my entire life — in 28 years, there have only been 7 days I've lived without one! I grew up in a home with five dogs, including four Bernese Mountain Dogs and a Sheltie. My family also responsibly bred Berners and Shelties, and I grew up around training, proper care, and learning to understand each dog's individual personality. Today, my own dog is still a huge part of my life. I also prepare homemade food for my dog and have learned a lot through that experience about paying attention to ingredients, sensitivities, age, energy levels, and individual needs. If your dog has a unique routine, dietary preferences, or special considerations, I'm happy to listen and follow the routine you've established for them. I'm comfortable with dogs of different ages, personalities, routines, and needs, and I believe patience and consistency go a long way. Most importantly, I know how hard it can be to leave your dog with someone else. I treat every dog like they're part of the family — with plenty of attention, patience, playtime, and care while you're away. 🐾 Pets are already a big part of my everyday life. I have always had dogs and currently have three cats of my own, so feeding, walks, playtime, cleaning, and keeping up with their routines are naturally part of my day. I’m also intentional about making time for the pets I care for. I’d rather give a pet my full attention than simply “check a box” and leave. I’m happy to work around their normal routine and give them the consistency they’re used to while their family is away. 🐾 I start by learning your pet’s normal routine — feeding times, walks, medications, favorite activities, boundaries, and anything else that helps them feel comfortable. Then I stick to those instructions as closely as possible. I believe good pet care is about paying attention to the little things. I watch for changes in appetite, energy, behavior, bathroom habits, or anything else that seems unusual, and I’ll communicate with you if I notice something worth knowing about. Most importantly, I want your pet to feel safe and comfortable, not like their routine has suddenly been turned upside down. Whether they want a long walk and lots of playtime or prefer to curl up somewhere quiet, I’ll meet them where they are. 🐶🐱

“Jessica is reliable and responsive, and takes great care of my kitty. I will continue to ask her to take care of Rocco every time I go out of town. Thank you Jessica!”

“Kim gave my husband and I peace of mind while we were on vacation since we knew our kitties would be in good hands. Kim is professional, respectful, and truly cares for pets. She provided check in updates and pictures that I ended up really looking forward to reading! I will definitely be rebooking with her again!”

“Very last minute, I realized I needed someone to drop in on my pup and take her out/ put her in her crate for bed time. Anna responded promptly, communicated clearly, and did everything I asked of her. Very thankful she stopped in and helped me out.”

“Bella has stayed with Elba several times, she always comes home happy and well taken care of. She also comes home very tired as she goes on many walks and hangs out at the dog park! Elba is very flexible with her schedule and always sends updates to let me know how Bella is doing. I would highly recommend Elba!”

“Rebecca did a great job and will be definitely booking with her again! She was on time and communicative during the time she was watching my cats!”

“Courtney took wonderful care of our cat while we were on vacation. It was the first time we’d left Percy for so long so I had been a little nervous, but after meeting Courtney and seeing how much she loves animals I was sure he would be happy and safe. She kept in great communication with us, sending lots of photos and videos. She and Percy were best friends in no time! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for care for their pet ☺️”

About: I have cared for and raised a number of pets over the years. Would love to be able to care for yours. Very loving home. I am self employed and able to make my own hours. I would be able to give your pet all the time and attention he/she needs. I would care for only one dog at a time so I can give them my sole attention. I do have a 8 year old cat but he has been raised around dogs his whole life. I lost my 12 year old Doberman back in April of last year. I cared for him from pup on up to his very last days. I am very patient and loving with animals as I have always had a pet in my home. I love going on walks and live close to the lake which has wonderful walking trails. Your pet would get plenty of love, attention and exercise 😊

“Emma is the best! There’s honestly only positive things I could say, she is so easy to communicate with and the genuine care for my dog she has is obvious! Ive felt comfortable leaving her in the hands of my dog and home every time she’s come over which in my opinion is the biggest complement! Me and Journey are so glad to have you there when I can’t be, see you soon and thank you always Emma!!”

“Blythe is always our go-to sitter! Our pups love her, and we appreciate having someone who we can trust in our home and that we know our pups will be excited to see!”

About: I have had dogs my whole life, have helped train family pets, and am certified as a Comfort Dog handler. I have watched dogs from the wee size of a Chihuahua to big fluffy Newfoundlands. I love using patience and kindness to ensure your pups safety and well-being. I agrew up with the high energy of Border Collies, both young and older. I have dogsat at someone's house up to 5 dogs at a time, with varying food needs and medications. I try my best to be flexible and up for anything you need to ensure your furry friend is taken care of the same way I would care for my own. From walks, to watching them in my home, I am here to help you remain confident in your dog's care. For boarding, I do have two dogs that live in residence and would be available for a meet and greet prior to booking. I work a hybrid schedule, so some days I am fully working from home and other days I am in the office and usually pop home in the early afternoon to let my dogs out and finish the day working from home. Dogs get fed before I start work and dinner when I finish. If I work from home I usually take a break outside at some point to play with the pups and after work we can do walks or dog park or hanging out in the yard. I have a fenced yard and two other pups in the home who are relatively chill. Dogs are allowed on the furniture and get lots of snuggles. My own dogs are crate-trained but rarely use them. They are often left on the living room couch when I leave, with a baby gate keeping them in. Can use crates if needed, I own a size small and a size large. My dogs are 25 and 12 pounds. The smaller of the two is a rescue and is extremely chill and friendly to all other dogs. The bigger dog can be sensitive with other dogs sniffing his butt but the most he does is bark at them to move away. He usually minds his own space and doesn't play with other dogs much but also doesn't bother them.

About: I’ve grown up my entire life surrounded by active, energetic dogs, so I know firsthand how much exercise, attention, and companionship they need to be happy and healthy. Whether it’s a long walk, a game of fetch, or simply spending time together, I genuinely enjoy keeping dogs active and giving them the love and attention they deserve. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I understand that every dog has their own routine and needs. My goal is to make your pup feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away — and to make sure they have plenty of fun along the way! I’d love the opportunity to meet your furry family member and give them the same care I’ve always given my own dogs. I work part-time at the Costco Tire Center, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide quality care for pets. I also have a lovable 2.5-year-old Irish Doodle who keeps me active and is a big part of my daily routine. We enjoy going on walks, visiting dog parks, and playing together. Pet care naturally fits into my lifestyle, and I enjoy having dogs around. I’m happy to work walks, playtime, and companionship into my day while making sure each dog gets the attention, exercise, and care they need. I have a fenced-in backyard with plenty of space for dogs to run around, play, and get some exercise safely. Inside, I have an open living room that’s always set up and ready for playtime, relaxation, and plenty of attention. I treat every dog like part of the family and make sure they have a safe, comfortable, and fun environment. I’m also happy to follow each pet’s normal routine, including walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and any other care they need while they’re in my home or visiting a client’s home.

About: I grew up with both cats and dogs, have two spoiled cats of my own, and spend some of my free time volunteering with cats at a local animal shelter. As a pet owner myself, I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, snuggles, or just having a friendly human around, I’ll do my best to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I also provide plenty of updates and photos because I always want a million photos of my cats when I’m away from them! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize visits, walks (for dogs), and drop-ins without rushing. I’m able to plan my day around pet care commitments and make sure each animal gets consistent attention, care, and reliability. As I currently have two cats of my own, feeding, playtime, litter box care, and general check-ins are already part of my daily rhythm. On top of that, I volunteer at an animal shelter, which keeps me regularly engaged with different cats and their needs. I provide care in my client’s home through drop-in visits and/or walks, depending on the pet’s needs. I always follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible to keep them comfortable and stress free while their owner is away. During visits, I handle feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, and any medication needs if instructed. I also make sure each pet gets attention and companionship based on their personality, whether that’s active play or quiet company. I treat every home with respect, keep things clean and tidy, and always prioritize safety, consistency, and clear communication with pet parents through updates and photos.

“Was able to accommodate a last-minute booking due to unexpected surgery and was super-accommodating over the weekend hospital stay updates. The pups looked super happy in every pic! Thanks so much.”

About: I’m a caring, responsible, and dependable pet lover! I’ve pet-sat for friends and family and have had my own pets that I’ve cared for and cherished. I’m patient, attentive, and enjoy making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved. 🐾❤️ I’m available every weekday after 4 PM and all day on weekends! I’m also flexible and can make daytime check-ins during the week when needed. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and needs! I care for pets with patience, love, and attention to their individual needs. I make sure they’re comfortable, safe, fed on schedule, and get plenty of playtime, exercise, and affection. I’m also happy to follow each client’s specific instructions and routines to help their pets feel right at home.

About: Hi! My name is Brianna, and I've been caring for dogs and other pets for over 20 years, including more than 10 years of professional experience. I started out pet sitting and dog walking for neighborhood families when I was 13 years old, and I've been passionate about animals ever since. I later worked at a local animal hospital, where I gained experience feeding, walking, cleaning, and caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I've worked with everything from energetic puppies to senior pets, as well as dogs who are shy, anxious, or need a little extra patience and understanding. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and one of my favorite things about pet sitting is getting to know each pet as an individual. Every animal has their own personality, routine, and quirks, and I genuinely enjoy building trust with them and helping them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I don't take that responsibility lightly. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply sticking to their normal routine, my goal is to make sure they feel happy, secure, and well cared for while you're away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members :) As of June 2026, I work full-time Monday through Friday during regular business hours. Because of this, I may not be available for midday potty breaks during weekday house-sitting stays. Pets who are comfortable being alone during a typical workday are generally the best fit for my current schedule. I may also be a little slower to respond to messages during work hours, but I always get back to clients as soon as I'm able and make communication a priority. I currently provide care in my clients' homes, where pets are most comfortable in their familiar environment. Every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their individual needs and follow the owner's instructions carefully. I treat every home with respect and every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away.

About: I’ve always loved animals and have had them in my home since childhood, there’s never been an animal I don’t love and I have years of experience with pet sitting! I’m currently working 5 days a week but I am free all day Sunday/monday and during the week after 6 to give your pets my full attention! I will follow any and all guidelines in your home to make sure your pet is safe 24/7, I will prioritize your pets health and happiness above all else!

About: I grew up with cats and dogs taking responsibility of feeding, walking and basic care. I love cats and dogs and will treat them as my own. Family and friends often rely on me to dog sit, dog walk and watch their pets when away. I love taking long walks or just hanging with your pet at home. I’ve raised both my dogs since puppyhood so I am very familiar with puppy care! I am a teacher who is available in the afternoons for dog walking and drop ins after school! I can walk your dog before you get home from work so you can relax. I will ensure the safety of your pet while in my care. I love dogs and cats and will make sure to follow instructions left by you. I am experienced with some reactivity.
