About: I am a college student who majors in Biomedical Sciences and plans to attend veterinary school after graduation. I have always had a love for animals, especially dogs, since I was young, and have helped care for my own dog since childhood. My passion for animal care has been my motivation to pursue a future in veterinary medicine. Along with caring for my own dogs, I have had experience with dog sitting and dog walking. I am comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities while making sure they are happy, safe, active, and well cared for. I am currently a college student home for summer break, and I am looking for part-time work. I am available almost every day until August 1st. I will be home again for Thanksgiving break, winter break, and spring break. When caring for pets in my client's home, I would follow the pet's normal routine and follow any additional instructions my client has left me while playing and caring for their pet.

We're so grateful to Melissa for taking such good care of our wonderful but neurotic dog Birdie! Melissa is communicative, responsible, and clearly loves dogs. We would have her to sit for Birdie again anytime.

Natalie is the absolute best for our dog. We went for a week long trip and Natalie stayed in our home. Let me start off by saying that we came back to the house even better than we left it. Natalie kept us up to date and treated Tia and our house as her own. She made sure to clean up any and all messes. And cleaned up a mess from Tia’s accident better than even we could. She even went through our trashes and washed her own sheets. Natalie will be our go-to sitter going forward and highly recommend her to all

Andrew is a great dog sitter. He was very accommodating when our previous dog sitter cancelled on us. He is easy to communicate with and is great with dogs. He stayed at our place for a week and watched our dog that doesn't really like new people while we were traveling. We came back home to a happy puppy, it was nice to know that she was well taken care of. Highly recommend.

About: I have helped take care of friends and families dogs/pets for about 5 years now. I have overnight sat for friends and took care of their dogs that required special feeding and medication instructions. I also helped train my own dog with stuff like sit and paw. I am currently working part-time in the hospital as an aide. I will not be working for most of the summer, so I will have plenty of time to check in on dogs or even stay over night at houses to pet sit. I have a fenced in yard and a long, strong lead if needed for dogs that can be escape artists. I also am strong enough to hold bigger dogs that can pull.

I didn’t have to worry at all that my pets were well taken care of during my vacation! I came home to a clean house and happy animals. I would definitely book with Lauren again!

About: I’ve been walking my neighbor’s two dogs for the past 2 years, caring for them like they’re my own. I’m experienced with daily walks, feeding, and giving lots of love and attention. I’m reliable, patient, and always show up with a smile (and treats!). I’m a full-time student with a part-time job, so my days are structured—but I’ve built in plenty of flexibility for pet care! I schedule early morning and late evening slots for walks and check-ins, plus open windows during breaks for feeding, play, and cuddles. I’m committed to ensuring your pet gets consistent, loving care even on my busiest days. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or theirs, I always make safety and comfort the top priorities. I follow the pet’s routine closely, keep a calm and clean environment, and make sure they always feel secure and loved. I also pay close attention to their behavior, so I can catch any signs of stress or discomfort early. You can count on me to treat your pet and your home with the same respect I give my own.

Liz is absolutely fantastic! She took such great care of Henry, and it was clear from the frequent updates and incredible pictures that he was having the best time. Liz’s communication made me feel completely at ease, and her updates showed just how much she genuinely cares about the dogs she walks. We came home to see Henry happy and relaxed, and I couldn’t ask for more. I Highly recommend Liz to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional dog sitter!
