“Julia watched River and Scout for a week while we were gone on vacation. Lots of pictures and daily communication made us at ease. Both River and Scout were very happy like we had not left. Thank You Julia for taking such good care of our Pups while we were gone!!!”

About: I’ve been around cats and dogs my entire life, and caring for them truly brings me so much joy! I’ve always had pets of my own, so I understand just how important it is to find someone you can trust to love and care for your fur babies like family. I’m super responsible, loving, and playful, whether it’s going on long walks, giving belly rubs, or just making sure they feel safe and happy, I put my heart into everything I do. Animals are a huge part of my life, and I treat every pet like they’re my own! I have pretty much a free schedule, and can do weekends and nights as needed! I’ll for sure be available most of the days and times. I treat every home and pet with the same love and care I give my own. I always follow any instructions closely, keep their space clean and cozy, and make sure they feel safe and loved at all times. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or cuddle breaks, I stick to their routine and make sure they’re happy and comfortable. I also keep pet parents updated with pics and messages so they have peace of mind while they’re away!
“Rebekah was on time and very thorough on our 1st meet & greet and our Andi was happy to meet me her. She took very good care of Andi and our home even sent pictures to assure all was well. I would definitely recommend Rebekah and use her services again.”

“Elsa was a wonderful dog sitter who took great care of our senior pup while we were gone. She did an amazing job with his medical needs including giving him his injection meds. She sent daily updates and made sure he was happy! I felt very reassured that he was in great hands while we were away. I definitely recommend her if you’re looking for a reliable caring and attentive sitter!”

“Jocelyn stayed with our pets while we were away and did an excellent job caring for them. She made it a point of providing updates with pictures and videos. She came by to meet our two dogs a couple of times before she stayed to make sure that they were comfortable with her and they immediately felt at ease. I highly recommend her for any pet sitting need!”
About: I've taken care of my own pets while I was growing up. From dogs and cats to horses. I've always love animals and seem them just as little kids, so I always try to be patience and kind in the same way as I am with human kids. I am currently a full-time student, so my schedule could be a little tight sometimes. But I'll be more than happy to visit your little friend if times work out. I am usually free all day for from Friday to Sunday. During the week I'm available from 4:30 pm to later evening. I will more than happy to play and take care of your doggie/kitty. Also, I will give you updates of your little fella. I try to be aware of my surroundings, look for anything that may lead to accidents, and change if needed.

Moo and my dogs got along so well, he apparently didn’t want to go. ? I’m glad I found my dogs a new friend and a trustworthy dog sitter! Would totally book her again.”
About: I have been taking care of pets since 2024 while there owners were away. I first started with cats and just recently started taking care of dogs too. I’m attending trade school with morning classes 7:00-10:20 am on Mon, Weds, and Fri until December 12th. Starting on January 20th, 2026 I will be in classes 1:00pm-5:00pm Mon-Fri so I will only be available mornings and nights during the weekdays but will have full time availability on the weekends. When I take care of pets, I keep them company and feed them well to the best of my ability. If there are multiple pets, I make sure they get along well and clean up any messes that happen. I am open to simple house sitting as well.
About: I’ve been walking dogs for over 5 years, working with both paid clients and through volunteer work in my local community. I understand everyone’s situation is different, so I’m flexible with pricing and can work within your budget. I’ve handled dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities, including high energy pups and slower moving seniors. One of the most meaningful experiences I had was walking an elderly dog regularly until she simply couldn’t go anymore. As her needs changed, I slowed down our routine, made adjustments to keep her comfortable, and always made sure she felt safe and cared for. What sets me apart is my calm, consistent approach. I prefer to work alone, which means your dog gets my full attention no distractions or split focus. I don’t rush through walks or treat them like a quick chore. I notice small details, follow instructions carefully, and adapt to each dog’s pace and personality. If you’re looking for someone reliable, steady, and fully focused on your dog’s well being, I’m the right fit. Pet care is already a regular part of my daily routine. I walk dogs every morning and plan the rest of my day around those responsibilities, because I’m used to starting my day with dog walks, I’m consistent, dependable, and able to take on new clients without disrupting my flow. I also have flexibility in the afternoons and evenings depending on the day, so I can work with different schedules when needed. When I care for pets in their home, I treat the space with respect and follow any instructions exactly as given. Making sure pets are secure before, during, and after walks, checking gates, doors, leashes, and anything else that keeps them safe. I always double check that water bowls are full and that the pet is comfortable before leave. I don't rush through visits or take shortcuts. Whether I'm walking a dog or stopping by for a drop in, I stay focused on the animal and their needs. I understand how important it is to trust Someone with your pet and your home, and I take that responsibility seriously every time.
“We’ve booked with Carla before for just an overnight trip, and she did a fantastic job! This time, our trip was a full week, and she was just as amazing. She took great pictures, kept me updated the entire time, even brought Winnie some toys, and taught her how to shake! On top of that, she kept my house spotless and made sure everything was clean when I got back. I’ll definitely continue booking with her and highly recommend her!”

“Jazmine did a great job watching our dogs. She made sure to take them out regularly, play with them, and sent pictures throughout. We would definitely recommend her and would love to have her watch out pets again.”

About: All my life, I have been around animals. I had pets, and I took care of my family's pets. Being an only child, the animal became a family to me!! Usually when I'm boarding a pet, I like to taking to walks so the can feel comfortable and enjoy the stay. Once back from the walks, I love to play with them so we can nap together right after! Based on what the pet parents indicated to me. I will ensure they get all the attention and the company your pet deserves. Will feed them, walk them, play with them, and bathe them if necessary. My goal is to make sure they feel as loved as their parents make them feel
About: With a strong foundation in caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments, I offer dependable, compassionate care tailored to each animal's needs. I’m skilled at reading animal body language, ensuring their comfort and safety during walks, playtime, grooming, and daily routines. My focus is always on creating a calm, loving environment where pets feel secure, happy, and well cared for. I currently work full-time, so I'm available for pet care services on weekdays after 5:30 PM. On Fridays, I’m available later in the day, and I offer flexible, full-day availability on both Saturdays and Sundays. If care is needed during the weekday daytime, just give me a heads-up in advance and I’ll do my best to accommodate! When caring for pets in the client’s home, I prioritize creating a safe and comfortable environment that feels familiar to them. I follow all the owner’s instructions closely to maintain their routine and ensure their needs are met consistently. I keep a watchful eye on the pet’s behavior and well-being, making sure they feel secure and calm while respecting their space and personality. Trust is key—I communicate regularly with the owner to provide updates and address any concerns promptly, so both pets and owners feel confident and cared for throughout the visit.
