About: My experience working in animal welfare taught me the importance of patience, compassion, and understanding each animal's unique needs. I know that finding someone you trust with your pets isn't easy, so I became a sitter to provide the kind of care and reassurance I would want for my own animals. I regularly care for my children's pets, and they love coming to Grandma's house! Whether it's walks, playtime, cuddles, or sticking to familiar routines, I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and at home while their family is away. ❤️ I work from home two days each week to provide attention, companionship, and care. I'm also home most weekends, which allows me to maintain your pet's routine and make sure they receive plenty of love, playtime, and supervision while you're away. This flexible schedule helps us provide consistent care and ensures your pets won't be left alone for long periods. 🐾💙 Our dogs are an important part of the family, and they're treated that way every day. They enjoy daily walks, either on the trail that winds through our 5-acre property or around our quiet neighborhood. We also have a fenced acre where dogs can safely explore, play, and burn off energy. Pets are fed twice daily and receive plenty of love and attention throughout the day. Whether it's snuggling on the couch, playing with toys, or enjoying outdoor time, we make sure every pet feels comfortable and cared for. Of course, good behavior is rewarded with treats! Two of our dogs especially love a good game of fetch, so you'll often find us outside throwing a ball and enjoying some extra playtime. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, happy, loved, and right at home while you're away. 🐾❤️

About: I’ve been dog sitting for family, neighbors and friends since I was 12. I have tons of experience with dogs of all shapes and sizes! I work full time Mon.-Fri. However, I work hybrid so I can adjust my in office days around your pet. Also, my husband works from home incase your pet needs more attention while I’m away. Free on the weekends! I have a fenced in backyard with full privacy. I have 2 Pomeranians who love other pets but can be separated if necessary, they have their own room.

About: Hi, I’m Sandra! Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for pets is something I love. I know every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level so I take the time to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Whether your dog is full of energy and ready for long walks and playtime, or your senior pet prefers a slower pace with extra patience and gentle care, I adapt to their individual needs. You can count on me to provide dependable care, regular updates, and plenty of love while you’re away. I’m a stay at home mom and have all the time in the world to spend with the pets in my care. I also enjoy gardening, baking, pottery, walks and spending time with my family. We have a doggie gate and big fenced backyard for your dog to run and play outside. Pets are welcome on the couch so we can all watch movies together. We don’t crate unless specifically requested by clients and we typically go on 2/3 walks a day.

“Once again, Danielle took amazing care of our two cats while we were away, feeding and playing with them during every interaction. They clearly looked forward to her visits and we looked forward to her updates and photos of our two little guys. It’s such a relief knowing they’re in such capable, loving hands while we’re away!”

My grooming experience has also given me a strong understanding of canine behavior and handling. I’ll treat your pets like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away! I’m currently a college student, but I complete most of my coursework from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule. When school starts I will be sure to mark my availability.

I enjoy running and playing with dogs to keep them active and happy, and I can also help them stay calm when needed. I offer walks up to 1 hour and can safely handle up to 3 dogs at a time.

“Randi was awesome! I don’t often leave my dog so I was fairly nervous to use a stranger. However, she came by while I was here to meet my dog, and watching her with him immediately put me at ease. We have already booked another session with her!”

“Thank you our Emma was happy to see us come home. Glad she was taken care of.”

About: I’ve had pets nearly my whole life and have been known to struggle to walk past an animal in need. This means rescuing an injured squirrel, a Cooper’s hawk, an opossum, and more, going the extra mile even when it was deeply inconvenient for me to do so. I also grew up attending zoo camp and then volunteering at a zoo from age 5 to 14, caring for a wide range of animals. I have worked with high energy pitties, a blind and anxious German shepherd, birds, cuddly kitties, fearful kitties, diabetic kitties, rabbits, and others. I have administered shots, IVs, medications, eye drops, and more. I am persistent and typically can win over even the shyest and most anxious fur baby. I have a genuine love for caring for pets and would be honored to care for yours! I am currently carefully thinking about my next full time role and working part time. My partner is an immigrant seeking employment during a time when that is extremely difficult due to the political situation. Any supplemental income is incredibly helpful for me as we navigate. I have a reliable vehicle, plenty of time to play with your pets, and love to love on them. I have a reliable car and I keep my word. I am communicative, honest, and truly love animals. I take direction well and understand that every pet has their specific needs. I don’t cut corners and do my best to provide top notch care, always.

About: I’ve always been an animal lover, and caring for pets has been a part of my life for years. From playful puppies to senior dogs who need extra patience, I know how to adjust my care to fit each pet’s personality and needs. I have hands-on experience with feeding, walking, administering medications, crate training, and keeping pets comfortable while their owners are away. Friends and family often rely on me to watch their dogs and cats, and I treat every animal like they’re my own—plenty of cuddles, playtime, and attention included! Whether your pet is full of energy or just enjoys lounging around, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for at all times. Pet care is just a natural part of my day. I’m used to building my routine around feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of love. I make sure pets get their exercise, attention, and cuddles every single day, because I know how much those little things matter. Each week, I also set time aside for things like brushing, extra play, or whatever makes them happiest. Taking care of animals doesn’t feel like a chore to me — it’s something I truly enjoy and look forward to. I care for pets like they’re part of the family! In my home, they’ll have a safe, cozy space with plenty of love, playtime, and snuggles. In your home, I follow their normal routine so they feel comfortable and cared for—whether that’s walks, meals, meds, or cuddle time. Every pet is unique, and I make sure they get the attention and affection they deserve. 💕🐾

“McKenzie did an amazing job caring for Leo while I was away. The timely communication and follow up was top notch and kept me at ease knowing he was being taken care of in absence.”

“Jenna was a life saver. We have two sweet 14 year old Australian shepherds who are a little wobbly and don’t see as well as they used to. I was afraid to leave them but Jenna was amazing!! Got tons of pics and updates. It was such a relief. Jenna is a true dog lover and really took care of our guys like they were her own. She spent tons of time with them. I’ll definitely use her again and pass her info along to friends.”

“Kaity was wonderful. She took great care of my cat Kitty for the week I was away and I felt very comfortable.”

About: I can’t recall a time in my life without pets. There was always at least one fluffy cat in the family, and I’ve spent at least a dozen years caring for dogs as well. I firmly believe that all animals have so much love to give and adventure to bring. I currently have a lot of weekday availability in my schedule. In the mornings, I go on walks anyways and can visit. The same goes for afternoons for the most part. In my client’s home, I will be cautious to keep doors and gates securely locked when letting an animal friend(s) outside and back in. I am sure to follow all given instructions to the T to ensure the safety and comfort of the animal friend(s).

About: I have 16 years of experience with seven different breeds of dogs. I have a connection with every dog that I’ve come across and rarely experience bad moments. Dogs have flaws just like us humans and my job is to take care of the dog for you but to also bring out happiness and energy of out every dog. I treat dogs like humans because they also have emotions. I take care of sick puppies and dogs as well. You will appreciate the love your dog will receive and some special training if needed. I have a job but I make my own schedule so my time varies but not as much. I will make your dog a priority. Our experience will only help your pet grow! I have a lot of time due to making my own schedule during the day. I rarely leave home so I have a lot of time to give attention I don’t have a fenced in yard but I have tons of space out back and we can walk as many times as your pup needs

About: I’ve had about 10 years of firsthand experience caring for my own cat, so I understand just how unique their personalities, routines, and needs can be! While my experience has primarily been with my own feline companion, I’ve developed a strong understanding of the patience, attentiveness, and consistency that go into keeping cats happy and healthy. I’m comfortable maintaining litter boxes, following feeding schedules, administering medications, and providing plenty of playtime, enrichment, and affection. I also understand that every cat has a different personality. Some love constant attention and cuddles, while others prefer their independence and need a little extra time to warm up. I’m happy to accommodate either! My biggest priority is making sure your cat feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’ll respect their boundaries, maintain their usual routines, and provide regular updates and photos for your peace of mind. Although my experience comes from caring for my own cat rather than professionally sitting for others, I know firsthand that cats are family, too! I’ll treat your feline friend with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. I am currently going to school part time on Tuesdays and Thursdays so those days are the most difficult to schedule for me. I also work part time at Mad Science of CVA, where I am scheduled by season and typically work once-twice a week for two hours at a time. I can pet sit on these days, but depending on the time of my shift for MSCVA, I may have to leave for two-three hours before returning. My biggest priority is maintaining each pet’s established routine! I always ask owners about their pet’s feeding, walking, grooming, medication, and training schedules, and I follow their instructions as closely as possible to ensure consistency and comfort while they’re away. If a pet doesn’t have a specific schedule, I typically begin the day around 8 AM with breakfast, followed by a morning walk. I usually aim for about a mile, but I’m happy to go farther for energetic pups or adjust the distance and pace for senior dogs or those with different physical needs. Afterward, I’ll wipe their paws, clean them up if needed, and spend time playing, providing enrichment, or reinforcing their usual training routines. Throughout the day, I balance exercise and playtime with plenty of affection and relaxation. For quieter pets or senior dogs, I love bringing a book and reading aloud while keeping them company and giving them lots of love! During downtime, I also make an effort to tidy up and maintain the home. My motto is to always leave a space better than I found it! In the evening, I typically follow up with dinner, another walk, and some quality time before settling in for the night. I also enjoy cooking, and with the owner’s permission, I’m happy to prepare a little dog-safe treat or meal using appropriate ingredients, provided it aligns with their dietary needs and restrictions. Above all, I’m flexible! Whether your pet thrives on a strict schedule, needs extra exercise, prefers a slower pace, or simply wants someone to cuddle with, I’m happy to adapt my day to whatever makes them feel happiest and most comfortable.
