About: I’ve always loved taking of my owns dogs since I was 14 and would also love the opportunity to love other dogs just as much as my own.I do work full time but my schedule changes weekly so any day could be available for me :) I’m always walking my own dog almost everyday or anytime I have free time. Would love to help others out who don’t always have the free time to get their fur babies out Can easily work with schedules and routines, whatever is best for your fur babies and their parents :) Feel comfortable to work with bigger and smaller dogs of all kinds

Maddie was a wonderful dog sitter for us! She was able to accept our booking last-minute when our usual sitter wasn't available for a trip. Our dog immediately liked her and I could tell he didn't miss us when we were gone! She was very thoughtful with our 2 cats too even though we only booked her for the dog, and very respectful of our home as well. I have nothing but great things to say about my experience with Madeline- definitely worth booking for your pet!

Dawn is wonderful with my boys. She made every effort to befriend my very shy Finley. They are buds now and it took no time. Dawn is very knowledgeable with large dogs. She is also very dependable and communicates well when she is unavailable. WE LOVE HER!!

Brittney did a wonderful job taking care of our cat, Ziggy. Brittney communicated well, with pictures and updates about Ziggy and our house (there were bad storms while we were away). Ziggy got lots of love, playtime, a clean litter box, and was well-fed everyday.

Megan took care of our two cats and our fish while we were away for two weeks. She stayed in communication with us about anything that was happening at the house and even went out of her way to take care of a malfunctioning alarm at the house. I loved having her here to watch over things and will definitely choose her and her family again in the future!

About: I have been a proud owner of dogs for over ten years. I have taken care of friends and family dogs throughout those years as well. I currently have two small Yorkies and one yorkie mix that only know love in my household! I will treat your pet just like a member of my family and will ensure they know nothing but love in my house! You can trust that I will cherish your pet and ensure I make you feel comfortable and up-to-date while they are in my care. I love to take dogs on long walks, dog parks and I have a big backyard for them to run around in as well. I like to spend quality time and play with your pet while they are in my care. I have open weekends to aid others with watching their pets. I have flexibility to assist with walking or caring for all of your dogs needs. With my three dogs, we are currently working on obedience training to further enhance their skills. I ensure that they have a healthy and safe environment to coexist as well as learn ways to respect each other spaces as well as the home they live in. I love on them individually to have that one on one time and play with all of them together as well. I would do the same for any dog under my care.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 13 years old and have always had a deep love for animals. Over the years, I’ve helped rescue and care for many pups, giving them a safe, loving, and happy environment. Since high school, I’ve also provided trusted house sitting and pet care for families in my neighborhood, gaining experience with dogs of different sizes, breeds, personalities, and routines. I currently have two large dogs of my own, so I’m very comfortable handling bigger breeds, high-energy pups, feeding schedules, long walks, playtime, and maintaining consistent routines. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away, and I always treat every dog like family. I’m dependable, attentive, patient, and highly communicative, and I make it a priority to keep owners updated with messages and photos for peace of mind. Whether it’s dog walking, overnight house sitting, administering basic care, or providing companionship and attention, I’m committed to making sure your pets feel loved, exercised, and stress-free in your absence. I am currently home from college for the summer and have plenty of free time during my day to take care of your pups! I am available to walk your doggo anytime during the day and want to make this process stress-free. If there is a time that your pup does better walking, I want to make that possible for you. For dog walking and pet sitting, I focus on creating a safe, fun, and comfortable experience for every pet. During walks, I make sure dogs get the exercise, attention, and stimulation they need while also prioritizing safety and positive behavior. I’m comfortable handling dogs of all sizes and energy levels, including larger breeds, since I have two large dogs of my own. For pet sitting, I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I make sure pets feel comfortable, loved, and relaxed while their owners are away by giving them plenty of companionship and attention. I’m dependable, patient, and highly attentive to each dog’s individual needs and personality. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident knowing their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for.

About: I've been in the house/pet sitting business for a couple years now. I've worked in houses with anywhere between one animal to seven animals! I am absolutely open to exotic pets as well as I have a few of my own and would love to meet different species. I also worked in a zoo for 4 years, and currently work in a vets office, so I have plenty of different experiences. I look forward to meeting your babies:) I currently work at a vets office Thursday-Saturday from 9am-5:30pm (1pm on Saturdays), and volunteer Sunday nights, so I would unfortunately not be able to provide around the clock care. Otherwise, I am at the home all day! I am open to frequent walks, brushing, bathing, giving medication, and any other specific needs for your pet! I understand how tedious and picky some animals tend to be, so I'm open to any accommodations necessary.

Couldn’t have asked for better! She was reliable, communicated great, and was very thoughtful and thorough. She handled everything we asked of, and more. She truly went above and beyond and we are so grateful for the peace of mind she brought us while we were on vacation and worried about our cats :)

About: I’ve been working at an animal hospital for almost a year. I’ve worked with all kinds of dogs, cats, and other exotic animals. I’ve also worked with their different sizes, ages, diets, medications, etc. I’ve got a dog and 3 cats currently. I also frequently pet sit for family and friends, often overnight or over the weekend. I love to go on neighborhood walks with my dog to make sure she gets her daily exercise in. Also playing outside and enjoying the nice weather. I’m available to let dogs go on as many potty breaks as they need! For my cats, I love playing with them and seeing all the different toys to make sure they never get bored. I’ve also done my fair share of cleaning, no matter the mess, I’ll clean it up! I am a college student with at most 3 classes a day. I can do early mornings and then evenings/afternoons. During school breaks, I’ll be available all day. There may be the occasional days where I’m busy or out of town, but more likely than not I will be free and not busy. I will most likely ask the pet’s owners what they prefer on things like going outside, for walks, and other daily routines. I will constantly be checking in on the pet and making sure they’re doing okay. If anything were to happen, I would immediately contact the owner to come up with an action plan and see what they would want to do, depending on the situation. I would make sure that the home is safe and that there is nothing that the pet could get into that would hurt them.

Amber was awesome! She was meticulous and took great care of my kitties (and one of them is pretty high maintenance). She was on time and took care of everything that was requested. She even went above and beyond! 10/10 would book again.

About: Hi! I am Tori & I am a college student looking forward to a future filled with taking care of animals. I currently work at an animal hospital & I have been dog sitting and dog walking for family and family friends since high school. I am also a cat mom of two! I am the sitter of the family and to my friends when they get away. I thought it couldn’t hurt to get more hours in doing what I love since I’ll have more free time available in between semesters. Sundays-Tuesdays, I am completely available to spend my days with your fur babies! I prefer any hours between 8am-8pm! Pet sitting/ dog walking will help me get out of the house on my off days and get exercise in! I do have two cats of my own so I cannot sit in my own house. However, in your house and with your pets, the call is yours. You tell me what your babies need and I will deliver! I offer extensive playtime and fun hiking trails!
