“Kendra was able to help us out with a pretty last minute request and take care of our high energy pup and outdoor kitties. They all loved her! She is reliable and flexible and we'd be happy to have her back again...as would they! 🩷”

About: Hi! I truly believe pets are family, and when you’re away, they deserve to feel safe, loved, and cared for just like they do with you. What you can expect: 💛 Genuine Care & Warmth I don’t just take care of pets — I spend time with them, talk to them, and make sure they feel calm, happy, and never lonely. 🏡 Respect for Your Home Your home will be treated with care and respect, just like I would treat my own. Clean, tidy, and exactly the way you left it. 📸 Stay Connected I’ll send you daily photos and updates so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and doing great. 🐕 Attentive Daily Routine Regular walks, feeding, playtime, and lots of affection — always tailored to your pet’s привычки and personality. 🤝 Meet & Greet Available We can meet beforehand so your pet feels comfortable, and you feel completely confident leaving them with me. 💊 Extra Care if Needed I can carefully and safely give medications if your pet needs them. 🎁 A Special Gift As a thank you, I’ll create a beautiful portrait of your pet — something you can keep as a memory. 🌱 A Personal Note I’m originally from Ukraine and currently building a new life here. Taking care of animals is something I truly enjoy and take seriously. 💬 Communication English isn’t my first language, so I really appreciate clear written instructions — it helps me take the best possible care of your pet. To enhance your chances of securing my services, please notify me of your needs in advance. This will allow me to better accommodate your requests and ensure a smoother experience for both of us. I'm more than happy to feed, play with, and take your little one out for a stroll upon your request. 😊 Any additional requests can be discussed separately to ensure they're tailored to your specific needs.

About: I have always loved animals and currently have a pug named Finn, who is a huge part of my life. I previously had two dogs and have had many other pets throughout the years as well. I have some experience pet sitting for friends and family and have also fostered three dogs in the past. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I am reliable, responsible, and will care for your pets as if they were my own. My schedule is very flexible at the moment, and for the next few weeks I am available every day before I leave for travel and my upcoming move. I am happy to work with your schedule and can accommodate a variety of pet care needs, including drop-in visits and walks. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to maintain their normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I follow all feeding, exercise, medication, and care instructions carefully and make sure pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages for peace of mind. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive care and make the experience as stress-free as possible for both pets and their owners.
“Lupita did a wonderful taking care of our cats. We appreciated the pictures she shared and the overview of their behavior. Communication with Lupita was easy. She’s an excellent pet sitter!”

“Nora is a GIFT! About a year ago my now 14 year-old cat Riley abruptly lost a significant amount of weight and bloodwork showed some kind of significant liver event though nothing was evident in an XRAY or ultrasound. He was prescribed two ongoing medications to support his liver & reduce inflammation; a small pill that needs to absorb during a fast (no food for 2 hours before and 1 hour after) and a liquid medication that needs to be given with food. In addition to the with/without food medications complexity, successfully pilling a cat every day requires a deft hand—pretty straightforward for someone who’s good at it, increasingly difficult each day for anyone who isn’t. Add to the equation both Riley and his brother Ash are initially shy with strangers. All things considered to me the situation seemed like a complicated ask for a pet sitter, so over the past year I hadn’t gone away on any trips longer than 2-3 days. In the face of a terminal illness diagnosis in my direct family I came to terms with having to hope for the best using a pet sitter for an 8 day family vacation though I was very concerned about how Riley would be affected by the extended change in routine. Enter Nora; highly intelligent, highly *attuned* (to the pets & the people), instantly trustworthy, and very gracious, a rare combination of total professionalism & grounded compassion. Though Nora was only here for about an hour each day her presence *visibly improved* Riley’s health. I didn’t know it was possible to come home from being away for 8 days to find Riley noticeably fluffier and more energetic than when I left, but that’s the magic that unfolded under Nora’s care. She also sent me pictures of Riley and Ash every day and let me know how they were each doing, sharing her sophisticated curiosity & creativity getting Riley to eat more and Ash to gradually come out of his shyness with clear warmth towards both of them. It’s extremely clear Nora *truly cares* and is keenly observant and exceptionally competent, a combination that made it possible for me to relax so much more on my trip. I’m very grateful to have found her. Thank YOU so much Nora. TBC 💗🐈🐈⬛🧘♀️”

About: Hi, I'm Jenn! Having six years of experience as a vet tech, six years of experience caring for pets professionally, and caring for my personal furry companions animals for over 6o years, I bring an exceptional blend of experience, care, and responsibility to my pet care. I have a huge heart for cats and dogs and love to see them happy in their environment. My sensitive nature allows me to be highly attuned to animals and their needs. Others have often commented on my ability to anticipate the needs of people and animals before they are aware of them. I believe in the health and wellbeing of all living things. When your animal is under my care, you can be assured they are receiving the nurturing and care they deserve. I am available for walking, visits, boarding, and more. Please inquire for your particular needs and desires for your pet in your absence. I would be happy to keep your pet loved and safe while you are away. Injections, special needs, training/rehabilitation I am in a very open and expansive time currently in life. I am widely available round the clock for your pets needs. I am available daytime, evenings, and weekends. I do not have a fenced yard on the property I live on in the country, so when boarding with me, dogs will be on leash when outdoors. They will enjoy the many walks they will have around here. When at your home, I take care of your fur baby and belongs with the utmost respect and safety.
“Luna took great care of our two cats while we were away for the holiday, and was incredibly thorough! We were able to relax without worrying about them during the few stormy days. We really appreciate everything!”


“Willow did a great job! Every visit she was prompt and sent a very detailed card every time so I knew my kitty was in a good hands! I will definitely rebook Willow for her services whenever I need her again!”

“Caroline was great with our kitty Nala! She checked in with me after every visit on how Nala was doing with photos. I really appreciate Caroline because I was not worried for our kitty because she was being taken care of without a doubt. Thank you Caroline. We will be in touch in the future.”

About: I have owned big dogs my whole life. Two labs, a retriever and a Catahoula mix. I have never know my life without a dog in it. Since I was little I would help take care of the dogs. From them being puppies to elderly dogs. I have watched my own dogs as well as others. I have also an accompanied a mobile dog groomer during her work. I helped wash the dogs as well as keep them calm and happy while she worked. I definitely learned A LOT about cleaning up after puppies while working with her. I am currently home for the summer from college and I do not have any other jobs so I have a lot of free time. I available all week except for when I will be out of town. I understand that every dog has different needs. I am fully flexible and willing to work with your dog in whatever way they need. For example, I have helped my dog through her fear of fireworks by wrapping her in a blanket and holding her (a little peanut butter helped too). Or if your dog needs a lot of exercise to stay calm and happy I will run around for hours. I am adaptable to the dog and I can help in whatever way is needed!
About: Caring for animals has always been part of my life. I grew up surrounded by pets of all kinds, including dogs, cats, birds with feathers, fish with fins, and even those with scales. That early exposure gave me a deep comfort and appreciation for animals of every personality and species. I am recently retired, which gives me the flexibility to be fully present and available for pet care when needed. My schedule allows me to accommodate walks, drop-ins, overnights, and extended stays without the constraints of a traditional workday. This flexibility means your pets receive consistent attention, timely care, and a calm, unhurried presence while you are away. When caring for pets in my home, they become part of an active, dog-friendly neighborhood with plenty to explore. I live just 1.5 blocks from the beach and close to great walking spots like Arana Gulch, the park at the end of Schwan Lake, and a nearby dog park only minutes away. Dogs in my care enjoy fresh air, fun walks, and plenty of playtime balanced with calm downtime at home. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routines so they feel safe and comfortable in familiar surroundings.
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 10 years old, and I'm a recent cat mom of a little under a year. I have experience with senior dogs and cats, too. I'm currently working full-time at a school, but I'm available every weekday after 4 pm and all day on the weekends to stay the night :) I will respect your space and leave it as I found it. Communication is my top priority, so if there's an issue, I'll communicate my concern as soon as it presents itself.
“Morgan went above and beyond with our cat. She gave thorough updates and sent several pictures each visit. She did everything we asked of her and more! I'm very thankful to have found Morgan for watching our cat! We'll definitely be booking with her again.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs, big and small alike all my life. I grew up with a boxer and a golden retriever in the home so I’m accustomed to the joy of having pets in the house. More recently I’ve pet sat for families who have homes in Europe, and would go visit during the holidays. I’ve been caring for this elderly dog in particular for over 10 years. He’s a sweet tempered dog but takes medicine everyday so I’ve become well adept at hiding his meds inconspicuously to get him to eat it without any problems. I also love working with puppies and find that caring for younger dogs is a lot of fun, and is exciting too! I love aussies, border collies, and spaniels but find that I can get along with just about any breed. I’m the type of person to always stop to ask to pet your dog on walks, and love showering dogs with affection and love. One of my favorite past times, is letting a dog run free off leash, and play frisbee with him or her. I’d love to provide loving, friendly, and fun care to your furry friend and I look forward to our first paw-shake! Currently in school, but available after and before classes start-and free on weekends! I’m in school, but I have plenty of time to run around and meet your pets. I would look forward to days pet sitting, or walking, and would love to meet you and your pets! I care for pets mainly in your home, I find it easiest because some pets can get flustered in new environments. I strive to get to know them and build trust by being in their home turf to see all their favorite toys, and where they feel most comfortable. I look forward to seeing how they play and grow at their most comfortable!

Not only do you want someone responsible with your animals but you need someone who will make them feel loved while you’re away ☺️ I love all fur baby’s like if they were my own I’m a property care taker and have a very flexible schedule. Message me to arrange something, I’m more than happy to help any time of the day I respect the rules of your home and will always ensure your pets safety. If your pet is on a routine, I’ll make sure to follow it
“Tyler took great care of my 2 cats! She even took the initiative to cool down my house on one of the particularly hot days. It was a good feeling to have someone reliable and caring to watch over my kitties while I was gone for a week!”

Claudia was extremely professional and sent us updates and photos for each drop in. This was our first night away from Bowie and it gave us such peace of mind knowing he was is in such caring hands. Thank you for having our fur baby’s best interest in mind! We hope you’ll be open to sitting Bowie in the future, he does too 😉

We are so grateful to Anna who took care of our older cat. Usually family watches her, but she was recently started on medications and it was too much. Anna was willing to help very last minute and came over multiple times to meet her and learn her medication schedule and administration. I had been so stressed trying to find the right care and once I met Anna it all melted away. She did a wonderful job caring for our cat and was so sweet with her. We would absolutely book her again!
