“Natasha is a great sitter. She took great care of our cats when we were out of town for the holidays. We were nervous about using a new sitter but Natasha was willing to first have a virtual meet and greet and then stopped by to meet the cats and get aquatinted with our home. She was a great communicator. She made sure the cats were fed, to played with them and scooped their litter boxes. She also took care of of details like wiping cat eye goop and leaving the place very tidy. Natasha is a great sitter.”

About: My family always had dogs growing up, including heelers, chihuahuas and Shi tzu’s! I now have 2 of my own, a 1 year old pitty mix named Charlie and a 5 month old golden named Marley. I make my own schedule so I have plenty of time for all pet related task! I often dog sit and do drop in visits for family and friends. I’m currently working part time, making my own schedule so I have lots of free time. Most of my day revolves around caring for my own dogs. They’re up early for breakfast, from there they enjoy walks and playing in the dog park. My 1 year old pitty mix Charlie LOVES naps after playing, so we do have a good bit of down time throughout the day. While I do not have a fenced in yard, my apartment complex offers a 24/7 dog park that my dogs enjoy. I also have a large crate if that’s something that you would like for your pet. My girls enjoy a day filled with treats, walks, toys and play time.

I do not offer visits at my home due to restrictions.

Whether your pup is shy, spunky, or senior, I’m comfortable handling it all—including administering medications and special care routines. Your pet’s safety and happiness are always my top priority! I am currently working part time job Wed- Friday during the day (7a-6p) but my partner also has great experience with dogs.

About: Hello! My name is Nicole and I have one pup of my own. Her name is Kona and she’s a Labrador/English Pointer Mix. I enjoy spending time with dogs of all sizes and will tire them out with play and exercise! I have been around dogs and puppies my whole life and come from a large family so I'm comfortable around many people and furry friends! I look forward to being your sitter/walker! I work from home so I’m available to care for dogs all throughout the day. I have a crate at home if needed and a couple extra dog beds. We have land for dogs to roam, but also walk regularly. My dog is a great companion and loves playing with other dogs! We don’t have a fence so dogs with good recall will enjoy it here the most.
About: I have been actively pet sitting for multiple families since I was 16 years old. Either boarding your pet in my own home or at yours plus daily dog walking. I have administered and followed necessary medicine routines. I have open availability and flexibility on times and schedules. I can work around schedules and be there for multiple walks a day or drop in visits. I have pets of my own that I care for and I always love helping out fellow pet parents and caring for there pet when they are away. My goal is provide the same amount of care I wish on my owns pets to be provided with.
About: As long as I can remember I have had a love for animals and especially dogs! I grew up always having a dog by my side. I have had my personal pet for a year now, and she has made it the best year of my life. She has been taught basic skills and some tricks. Soon she will be starting agility, tracking, scentwork, and possibly rally obedience. Seeing as she is a Labrador, I’ve had plenty of experience administering ear medication. I am also qualified to give oral medication. I will be getting First Aid Certified very soon. Rarely does a day go by where my dog doesn’t get the exercise she needs both physically and mentally. Whenever I watch someone else’s little loves, I treat them as if they are mine. I want the owner to have a safe and enjoyable time away from his/her pet without having to worry at all. Our pets are not with us nearly long enough, so I strive to give them the best lives while they are walking beside us! I currently work part-time with the weekends off. Along with that, I have college, but a lot of it is online. I’m never busy for more than 5 hours, so if need be during the week, I will be able to take the dog(s) out at least once every 5 hours. During the weekend, it is at least once every 2-4 hours. I am done with everything by 5 PM during the week. When it comes to schedules I am very flexible. At the time I cannot provide home services, but I can take your dog on a walk! When the weather is nice, I take my dog to the dog park, San Lee, or a nearby ball park for physical exercise. I would love to do so with your dog(s) if you feel comfortable enough to let me do so! If you would like your dog to have a play date, my Labrador, Jetta, is always down for a good time!
About: I've been around animals most of my life, and I love all types, shapes, and sizes. I am a nurse and deal with a lot of people and stress, so animals are like my escape. Anywhere I go I'm looking for new furry friends. I have three babies of my own, two dogs and a cat, all rescues. I've helped look after furry family members for my friends and family, so why not branch out and help more in the community and spread the love, boops, and smooches. I work nights, 3-4 12hr shifts per week. House sitting would be difficult on work days but I'd still be available for walks and/or drop ins on days between shifts. On off days my schedule is usually pretty open aside from some housework or occasional errand. I have a large fenced yard for my girls to run and play in. My cat is indoor only so I am always watchful entering and exiting the house so no furbabies on the loose on my watch. For walks even well trained dogs I will walk with a leash, for safety reasons. If you have a fenced yard I'll likely be outside with them when they are out, to play and keep an eye on things.

Kali has come twice now in the last month. I am incredibly grateful we have finally found a sitter like her again! Kali is kind, punctual (we have a diabetic cat that needs to be cared for in specific time increments), communicative, and we can tell our cats and home have been taken care of when we get home. She has even managed to get our shy cat to come out while she is there. I am relieved to know we have finally found someone we can trust!
My fur babies love Taylor! I have a special needs dog and I’m always nervous leaving her in someone’s care. Taylor was amazing, I felt comfortable in our meet and greet and she was reassuring in her messages on drop-ins! We will definitely be using her more often!
Cassie was wonderful!! She did such a great job sending pics during check ins and letting us know how our boys were doing. She also did a phenomenal job of keeping the litter boxes and surrounding areas clean. All around she was awesome, one of the best, most communicative sitters we’ve ever had. I highly recommend her and we will definitely be using her again!!
