Tiffany was so responsive and reassuring. My husband and I had to work away from home for the day and Tiffany showed up for us last minute when we needed someone to check in on our new puppy. She was so helpful, reassuring, flexible and communicative to ease my anxiety when leaving our sweet pup. We would definitely rebook Tiffany again!! Thank you Tiffany!!

Kylie had visited Mocha three times now and she's always been awesome and super communicative! She took very good care of Mocha while we are away at work, drained Mocha's excessive energy out and kept Mocha a happy and tired dog. Would recommend her to take care of your fur baby while you are away. :)

About: I’ve been watching dogs for several years and genuinely love spending time with animals. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets while they’re out of town. I’m attentive to each pet’s needs and ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your pet is energetic or prefers a calm presence, I’ll provide dependable care and a lot of attention! My schedule is flexible and I am open to last minute services. I work from 5am-2pm so I am available my days off (which change) anytime and my work days I am available after 2pm. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week and on weekends. I value communication and will keep you updated with photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for! Your pet’s safety and comfort is my top priority. I follow any instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and routines. I take time to build trust with each pet and ensure they feel secure while with me. I will treat your pet as if they were my own!

Callon has an amazing connection with rabbits! Very knowledgeable and enthusiastic! He truly cares for them and did a great job communicating and sending pictures to me while I was away. He went above and beyond to care for our bunnies, bought them extra fresh food and helped get supply’s for our new babies. My bunnies had a great time with Callon and I will 100% hire him anytime I need help with my rabbits.🐰🐰🐰

Mary is a wonderful choice for a pet sitter. She took great care of my senior cat. My cat is usually pretty shy, but she instantly warmed up to Mary, and I received several lovely photos of my cat playing and getting some loving attention. I look forward to rebooking with Mary, and I would recommend her to anyone!

About: Hi! I’m Anna, I’ve been a total dog lover my entire life! For years, I’ve been the go-to person for family, friends, and neighbors whenever they need someone to watch their pups. I’ve cared for all kinds of dogs, big and small, and I absolutely love getting to know their different personalities. I know your pup is a true member of your family, and I promise to treat them like part of mine—with tons of affection, playtime, and love! I work part-time from home for just two hours every morning, which gives me plenty of time and flexibility to dedicate the rest of my day to taking care of your pets. Because I am home for the vast majority of the day, I can provide consistent attention, regular potty breaks, and plenty of playtime to ensure your pup feels right at home. Safety and happiness are my top priorities. We have a big, secure yard where dogs can run, play, and burn off energy in a safe environment. I believe in treating every guest like a member of the family, providing a comfortable indoor space for relaxation and constant supervision. In the event of an emergency, the closest 24/7 animal hospital is VEG (Veterinary Emergency Group) located at 2224 South El Camino Real. I am also BLS certified, ensuring I can stay calm and helpful in the event of any unexpected situation.

About: I’ve had pets my entire life and truly understand the joy, comfort, and companionship they bring. I currently have a two-year-old Bichon mix and a 14-year-old Yorkipoo, so I’m very familiar with caring for both energetic young dogs and senior pets with special needs. Now that I’m semi-retired, I’ve chosen to spend my time doing something that genuinely fulfills me—caring for animals. I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and understanding their individual needs, routines, and quirks. I have a naturally caring and attentive nature, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I know they’re not just pets—they’re family—and I make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for in my hands. I am currently semi-retired and my schedule is pretty open. I’m available for immediate drop-in’s or pet walking. I usually just need a 1-2 hour window I will come to your home with a loving heart, ready to care for your sweet pet(s). My goal is to make each animal feel safe, secure, and truly cared for while you’re away. When walking your dogs, I make sure their leashes and harnesses are properly fitted for both comfort and safety. I also value any personal information you can share about your pet—the more I know, the more attentive and responsive I can be to their unique needs, routines, and personality.

About: I've cared for dogs of all sizes since I was 16 and have experience administering medications, grooming, feeding, walking, and playing! I've spent the night with dogs who don't like being alone and I'm passionate about taking great care of these amazing companions. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to shift things around depending on what your pet might need and what time frames they need to be fed, checked on, or walked. I'm happy to stay over night on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays and can come over frequently on weekends days. I can spend time with your pet at your house to keep them company and play frequently for those with lots of energy. While I don't offer dog boarding at my house I am willing to stay over night when that's needed!

About: I’ve cared for pets my entire life. I grew up with dogs, cats, guinea pigs, even that weird teenage phase where I decided to adopt a rat. I am patient and can read your pet’s cues. Last minute bookings are ok! I work from home full-time and make my own schedule. I am pretty much always available unless already booked. I work as a writer (when my cats let me) and make extra income doing what I love - taking care of animals. I am extremely mindful. I will put you and your pets’ needs first. You can trust me to keep your home clean, and your pet happy.

About: Hi, I’m Sammi, a pet lover in North SD who lost my 18-year-old schnauzer in 2021 and has been pouring that same love into every pet I care for. We’re home all day, 7 days a week, so your fur baby will always have company, enjoy three walks daily, and get a paw wipe after every walk. Your dog’s safety and comfort come first, a double-door entry keeps them secure, no resident pets or kids means zero stress, and 18 years of experience means we treat every pup like our own.

Makenna is great, especially for shy kitties! She got my cat to warm up to her quick, and took great care of her while I was gone, including by going above and beyond when some ants found her food. She was also available on short notice, which was a godsend.

Absolutely fantastic drop in sitter for my cat. 100% recommend & she will remain my #1 choice when I go out of town. Her professionalism was my first impression. When she came to my apartment to get the key and meet my cat, she brought a notebook to keep track of all the info she needed to remember. My cat also decided it would be "funny" to play a game of hide & seek in my house while I was away. Victoria genuinely cared enough to check everywhere (including with neighbors) & even changed her schedule to find her just in case my cat had become lost outdoors. She notified me quickly about the situation and was fully transparent about what had happened. (Thankfully, my girl eventually came out of hiding when her name was called!) There are not enough genuine and trustworthy people in the world whom you could trust with your beloved pet but Victoria certainly is one of them!
