About: I have done dog sitting, walking, and house sitting for the past two summers for family and friends, including feeding, walking, picking up after, enrichment, and administering medications. I also have over ten years experience as a dog owner. I work full days on the weekend and only a few hours during the week. I am available on weekends for quick check ins or dog walking. During the week, I am available for all services - house sitting, walking, etc. I am very good with following directions exactly as stated and will always give your pets the full attention and awareness that is needed. I am happy taking as much time out of my day as you need so you can be assured that your pet is well taken care of. I do have a cat and a dog at home. The dog is not friendly with other dogs, so unfortunately I cannot board/sit dogs in my own home. Both my pets are cat-friendly though, so boarding cats is no problem.

“Anna was amazing with our large goldendoodle Barley. Thank you for taking such good care!”

About: My name is Sophie and I have been walking dogs and house sitting for about 15 years now, mostly for family friends or neighbors. I am my friends and families go-to for pet sitting, dog walking, etc. I have been around dogs and many other animals my whole life. I have had different animals throughout my life. I did 4-H for about 8 years. I feel comfortable taking care of a variety of animals. I love dogs and all other animals. I would love to take care of any animals you have! I work full time either from 8:30-1:30 or 8:30-3:30, depending on the day. My schedule can be flexible. I would love to care for or walk your dog(s) after work any day of the week! When caring for pets in their own home, I aim to maintain their regular schedule and environment to reduce stress. I follow all instructions closely—feeding, walking, playtime, medication, and any special needs—while treating your home with respect. I can send regular updates and photos so you feel connected and confident while you’re away. Whether it’s a quick visit or an overnight stay, I strive to make your pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable.

About: I love all animals, but I have a special place in my heart for dogs. I have been petsitting and walking dogs for over 10 years. As well as on going three years experience working at a Veterinary Hospital. I believe that it is important to take each dog's individual personality and preferences into account when caring for them. I enjoy any kind of interaction I can get! I have a 10 year old Yorkie at home who loves to play fetch and goes wild with the word "walk". He provides me with lots of cuddling and laughs. My goal for every pet is to make them feel loved, cared, and appreciated for! I am currently working part time, so i'll have plenty of time playing with your pups! My hours are very flexible and I am easy to contact just shoot me a message. I am always aware of pets getting out so I make sure leashes are on and gates are closed before letting pets out of the house.

About: I grew up with dogs as my parent had service dogs working for the police. I have been dog sitting for several people. I will care for any dog as it was my own. I also have a rescue dog called Hercules. He is an energetic siberian husky and he is the love of my life. I am very active and would love to be outside with your 4 legged friend. I'm empathetic and I pay attention. I'm working part time and have a lot of time to care for and activate your dog! I would love to take your pup on hikes and beach walks. I have a fenced small yard. We live next to parks and the beach where we can run or just go for a good walk.

About: Dogs and cats have been a part of my family ever since second grade when I presented a book of poems titled "I Love Dogs" to my parents begging them for a furry friend. I then started dog-walking and pet-sitting as soon as neighbors and family friends would have me. All these years later, getting to know dogs of all shapes and temperaments brings me as much joy as ever. I'm currently working a flexible schedule and am available to fit pet-care in most days. We can work together on a routine that works for both of us. I have a lot of experience dog and cat-sitting for pets of all different breeds and personalities. I am comfortable accommodating different homes and pets according to my client's particular needs.

About: Pets have always been in my household since I was a child. Growing up, my best friend & I would hang out on his farm on the weekends where I truly connected with caring for pets. My personal activities of meditating and connecting with nature through physical activity help me connect with animals. Pet owners constantly appraise me for seeing there pet friends be calm & tranquil under my care. Leading with your heart makes pet care not a job but a loving experience for the little ones when your away from home. Time management is my strong skill with my administrative experience and can incorporate pet care during my downtimes. Also flexible if a pet has a certain schedule/ routine. Don't believe I can have pets in my household but will be checking in with the app yo disable this service to allow pets in my household.
