About: I’ve taken care of every kind of animal you can since I was little. I worked at a kennel for two years and during my time there I trained(including my own service dog!), walked dogs, played with all sorts of animals, bathed and grooms all breeds of dogs. My favorite breeds are the large dogs! I hope to meet you & your furbaby soon! I work full time night shift sunday-wednesday so morning and night time walks are always perfect. During my off days I would be available 24/7. I don’t offer in-home services so it would depend on the client but on walks and outdoor playing I would make sure that all harness/leash/collars are on correctly and that all gates are locked/shut properly.

5. Daniela D.
“I have know Daniela for several years now, and as a fellow dog owner myself, I can confidentially say that she has the best qualities to take care of your fur babies! Daniela is a bright soul who has so much love in her heart! She is the type of person that animals are drawn to because of her caring and bubbly personality. Alongside that, she is one of the hardest working people I have ever met! She is very organized and on top of things, and her work ethic is almost inspirational. She is very experienced with watching animals, and is always the person we go to if we know we will need a pet sitter. If you were to choose Daniela to watch your baby, I promise you will not be disappointed!”


6. Karoline H.

“We reached out to Karoline for reoccurring dog walks and they are simply wonderful. They are responsive, personable, kind, flexible and trustworthy. Our pup was immediately comfortable with Karoline the moment they walked through the door. They are working with Zoe to be less distracted by squirrels and critters on their walks and we also receive updates and adorable photos after their adventures. They are one of the most patience and punctual humans you will meet ... I highly recommend Karoline, and trust her completely with our fur baby.”


7. Keira C.

11. Brittany H.
“Britt shows our dogs the exact love and attention that we do! I know they feel safe and loved when she’s with them given their excitement when she walks in the door, which makes leaving them much easier! She checks in often, and we always come home to a clean house and happy dogs!”


12. Aydee M.
About: We’ve had dogs of all sizes in our home since I can remember. And I’ve raised a few of my own along with 2 cats I am available all week. I can check in on your pets and let them out and feed them according to your routine. I will also walk your pets. I can also board and host daily care of multiple pets. You can leave me any detailed instructions on how you’d like your pet cared for. I’ll come in and take them out into the yard to do their business, or change their pads/clean up cat litter and clean any messes they may have left. If they need to be fed I’ll give them food and water also according to your instructions. And if they need to be walked around the neighborhood or park I can do that also. When they are in my home you can bring toys, beds, or Blankets that they feel more comfortable in, but I can provide that as well. You may bring your own food that does well for their diet.


13. David D.

“Dogs look forward to seeing David.”


14. Wendy S.

“Wendy was so great walking our babies! She was reliable, right on time and the dogs loved her! Would definitely use her again.”


15. Michelle B.

“Lucy loves Michelle! Michelle is professional, and treats Lucy with great care and compassion. She loves our dog as if she were her own. I know I can trust any of my pets with Michelle. She has so much great experience and she really knows how to care for animals. ❤️ She’s the best walker/sitter we’ve ever had!”


16. Marisol G.
“Marisol is an excellent dog sitter, she took care of my two dogs Oreo and princess. She was great at providing me with updates, photos and videos during their stay. She was always very kind and communicative about how my dogs were doing. I loved all the videos and photos she sent on a daily basis multiple times a day. One of our dogs is very old she cannot see, marisol took great care of her even with her disabilities and restrictions. We will always use her services!”


17. Sara L.
“Sara is a detail oriented pup-lover who is absolutely obsessed with her own labradoodle, Lorenzo, and truly bonds with dogs more than other humans. I've seen her take amazing care of her own animals, as well as mine - she my go-to puppy sitter when I'm out of town. You lil poochie pal with be in great hands Sara!”


18. Robin T.
About: My latest dog, a very timid shy dog has taught me a lot! I now have more knowledge about canine behavior in particular, but I have had cats my whole life. I am a great observer of body language and recently gone through training with my own dog ( positive reinforcement based with treats), so that is fresh in my mind. I now have a senior cat who I have to care for with asthma and beginning kidney failure and saw my last dog through his senior years. I am happy to play if that is something your animal needs or we can go on walks. I will also just patiently wait for your dog or cat to trust me if they are slow to warm up! I'm at home with my own dog that I care for with activities. I'm hoping to make this a decent gig for myself so I have a very open schedule to work with! I'm here to do whatever you would like me to whether that's walk, play with, or just spend time with and feed your pet. I will only do what everyone is comfortable with. Let me know what a regular day looks like so I can do my best to mimic that routine for your pet!


19. Petey P.
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was young. I currently have 4 furbabies with my partner. I have 4 years of fostering experience as well. From walks, to baths, to deep cleaning the liter box and poop scooping duties I don’t mind doing it all! I am currently looking for a part time or full time job so my pet care availability is wide open and very flexible! Especially for house sitting and pet care in your home. N/A currently not offering boarding or care at my home. Will update in May 2025. All other services I can still provide! Thanks for understanding!


20. Julia P.
“Julia is the true definition of a pet lover. She is very responsible, caring, attentive and the best pet sitter you will find. She has a dog, has taken care of cats, gerbils, fish, lizards and birds. Often waking up wee hours before school (last year before college) to make sure they were fed, walked and loved. Your pet will be in great care with Julia!”
