About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and have 15+ years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, lizards, chickens, pigs, and more. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to feed, walk, bathe, and love their pets as if they were my own. I’m comfortable with everything from energetic puppies to senior pets needing extra care, and I’m happy to follow any routines or special instructions. With reliable references available, you can feel confident knowing your pets will be safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I currently work Full-time in the mornings, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for pets throughout the week. I’m available on weekends for pet sitting and most weekdays after 3 PM for walks, check-ins, or playtime. I treat every pet like my own and always follow your instructions to keep them safe and comfortable in their home environment. Whether it’s feeding, walks, medications, or just extra snuggles, I make sure your pet feels secure and loved while you’re away.

Jolie was amazing with my dog Koda! She went above and beyond — even picking up tennis balls when she saw how much he loved to play fetch. It’s clear she really cares about the pets she watches. I felt totally comfortable knowing Koda was in great hands. Highly recommend!

Allie, was punctual, contentious, responsive , efficient, caring and honest. BUT, MOST OF ALL she loved OUR DOGS. Our 2 dogs have special medical needs and she gave them their meds on time and let us know it was done. She shared wonderful photos of the dogs on a regular basis. Winnie had a seizure and Allie contacted me and sent a video. In consultation with Winnie’s vet we made a plan for what to do if she had another seizure. I felt confident that Winnie would be well cared for. I have already booked Allie for another vacation.

About: I have had animals all my life. I would ask my neighbors to help watch theirs when they would go out or away. And I really enjoy it. I love taking dogs for walks. I love playing with cats. I am currently a college student so I have time to take your dogs for a walk or to watch them on the weekends. I am currently away from home and I miss my animals so this is a way for me to help those who need it. Depending on what your schedule is and what your animals needs are I will always listen to what you say. I know how important to listen to the client. They known the animal best.

About: What sets me apart is being understanding of each pet’s unique needs. I’m comfortable with providing specialized care, being attentive to detail, and ensuring that each pet’s specific needs are met. I’m currently working part-time, so I will have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I get hour long lunch breaks, so your pets will never be left alone longer than 4 hours! I do not have a fenced in yard, but I live in a safe neighborhood where I will be able to walk your pet. If I am dog sitting in home, I will go with your dogs normal routine!

About: I have been pet sitting for 5 years and my friends, family and neighbors all have trusted me to take care of their pets for years. I have experience in basic obedience training with young dogs. I have trained my 2 dogs and have done some work with other puppies. I have experience with administrating medicine to senior animals. I also have experience with reptiles, I used to be a pet keeper at a pet store and picked up many useful skills during that time. I am currently working part time. Shifts are about 4 to 7 hours long but only 3 days a week. Daily walks are no problem, I can fit that into my daily schedule. I usually like to discuss with the clients that have booked with me about my schedule for that week. I usually do not house pets in my home due to the fact that we have many animals and things can get difficult. In a client's home I usually follow the instructions that I am provided for the pets diet and routine. I love playing and spending time with all my clients animals!

About: Hi! My name is Krista and I currently have 2½ years of professional pet care experience. I work at a pet boarding and grooming facility where I spend my day playing and taking care of an assortment of animals. Some of my duties include cleaning up any mess the pets make, prepping and feeding all boarding pets, administering medication when required, taking dogs outside to play, supervising daycare, assisting with grooming (nail trims, baths & brushing), and keeping a clean environment for the pets. I have also learned basic first aid for dogs and was trained by our on-site vet-tech on what to do in emergencies. I've also had a wide variety of pets my whole life including dogs, cats, rabbits, ducks, a turtle, snakes and bearded dragons! I absolutely adore animals and would love to be your go to pet care provider! I'm currently working part time and can stop by to check on your pups throughout the day! I can also provide overnight care as needed and am more than willing to take your pup out on a little day trip for a pup cup, new toy or a long walk. When you leave your pet with me, you aren't just booking a sitter. I treat every pet like family with gentle care, close attention and a whole lot of love. From belly rubs to bedtime routines, I follow your instructions to a T and will keep you updated with photos and messages. So whether its a weekend getaway or a long workday, I'm here to make sure all your pups needs are taken care of!

Megan took great care of our pups while we were on vacation. She sent us pics and updates every day. We have a very senior dog (almost 16 yrs) and a very timid dog (rescued from a horrible situation) so we were a little nervous leaving them, but we didn't need to be! Megan was awesome with them! She's the best! 🤗

I'm hesitant to write this review for Jolie because she was so wonderful and I'm afraid everyone will want her. What a bright, personable, responsible and delightful young woman. She stayed at my house with my three cats for three days and the house was spotless when I returned. The instructions I left for their care was a little complex but she followed my notes to the letter. Clearly she loves what she does and she's very good at it.
