This was our second time booking with Lexi and it was absolutely wonderful. During what was a stressful family weekend out of town, I was so, so glad to know I could count on Lexi to take great care of Toffee the dog while we were away. She is so kind, thoughtful, and thorough with her care. I loved getting updates over the weekend and she is a great communicator. We’re so grateful to know Lexi is “Toffee Approved” and look forward to working with her again for our dog sitting needs.

About: I have been around dogs throughout my entire life and I love dogs very much! I know how to care, feed, play, clean and love dogs the proper way! I will make sure that I treat your dog with as much love and care as you treat them and with as much love and care as I treat my own dog! I am a teacher during the day, so I will be available to walk, play, or visit your dog any day starting at 5pm. If you need me to house sit for you and your dog, I can happily do that on the weekends at any time! I am an animal lover through and through and I hope I will be able to care for your dog, or dogs, soon!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10 years old. I grew up in a home with 3 dogs at all times. We have had a range of small pups, and also big/high energy ones like golden retrievers and huskies! I did obedience classes and shows with my Yorkee Poo for 4 years. I have provided dog sitting for close family friends for many years now, including walks, feeding, bathing, transporting (for a dog breeder), and boarding. I also raised five husky puppies, so I have a lot of experience with young pups, too. Pet care fits really naturally into my weekly routine because I work from home while starting my own business, which gives me plenty of flexibility throughout the day. I’m available for drop-ins and walks any day of the week. I grew up with pets as a daily part of life, so caring for them feels familiar, natural, and genuinely fulfilling. Whenever I am caring for pets in a client's home, I make sure to follow any specific direction given by the pet owners. Whether that is s feeding schedule, regular walks, cuddles, or crating, I always make sure to understand a client's expectations and take care of their animals with the same love and care that they would.

Charlotte did an excellent job caring for my adorable but unpredictable kitties. I will definitely book her again. I feel so much more comfortable knowing Mr. Peabody and Zuzu are in capable caring hands with Charlotte.

Bethany did a great job taking care of our cats while we were on vacation. She was very dependable showing up twice daily, on time as scheduled. She was communicative and very personable. We had great peace of mind knowing she was taking care of our pets. She clearly loves animals and taking care of other people's pets. We highly recommend her.

About: I am very lovable and caring for dogs. Most of my life, I had dogs living with me and cared for them. I currently have a dog that I love and care about. I am good at walking, playing, and bathing dogs. I am available in the mornings and early afternoon during the week and weekends. I currently work full time at another job, so some weekends I am available for longer hours. I have reliable transportation, so that wouldn't be an issue for me. I have past experience with house sitting with a dog, since I helped a friend a few times. If you have additional questions, feel free to contact me. Thank you for reading my profile. Hope to here from you soon.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats every day. I recently raised my own puppy who’s now a happy, well-behaved 1-year-old, so I’m very comfortable with puppy routines, training basics, and high-energy pets. I also have a 5-year-old cat, giving me years of experience with feline behavior, feeding schedules, and creating a calm, safe environment for more independent pets. What sets me apart is my patience, consistency, and genuine love for animals. I understand the different needs of young, active pets as well as more mature ones, and I always treat every animal with the same care and attention I give my own. I work full time throughout the week as a dental hygienist, that makes after work a great time for dog walking! This also means pet sitting is strictly weekends so I can give your pet my full attention ! I create a calm, safe, and pet-friendly environment where animals can relax and feel comfortable. I stick closely to each pet’s routine—feeding times, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and supervision. Pets are never left unattended for long periods, and I keep their space clean, cozy, and stress-free.

About: I have hands on experience caring for animals through my own pets and helping family. I currently help care for two cats, including feeding, cleaning, and making sure they’re comfortable and well looked after. I also regularly help with my grandmother’s German Shepherd, so I’m comfortable around larger dogs and understand the importance of being attentive, patient, and consistent with their care. While I’m newer to pet sitting professionally, I take responsibility seriously and treat every pet like my own. I’m happy to follow specific routines, provide updates, and make sure your pet feels safe and cared for while you’re away. I work a consistent Monday through Friday schedule from 7am–4pm, which allows me to provide reliable care before and after work hours. I’m available for morning visits before work and evening care on weekdays. Midday visits may be possible during my lunch break if the location is close to my job. On Saturdays and Sundays, I’m available all hours and have a very flexible schedule to meet your pet’s needs. care for pets with the same attention and consistency I give my own cats. I maintain a regular feeding schedule with wet food and clean litter boxes daily to keep things fresh and healthy. In your home, I will follow your instructions closely, respect your space, and make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. I take the time to build trust with each pet and pay attention to their behavior to ensure they feel relaxed, secure, and well cared for.
