About: I've been around animals basically my whole life. My family has always had some sort of pet, and we currently have a full house of 'em. Over the past few years my parents have gone out of town for a week or so over the summer, leaving me to care for our dog, four cats, and fish (low maintenance but still present!) on my own. I have a lot of free time over the summer and an incredibly flexible schedule! Aside from the occasional doctor's appointment and Saturday night dinner show, I'm almost always available! A big thing with me more than anything is spending time with any animals I'm in charge of. I want to make sure that they know I'm someone they can trust and be close to to stave off any loneliness, whether that be through play or just being around. I'm incredibly precise when it comes to directions and medications, so rest assured knowing that proper and healthy food intake is important to me!

About: Trusted Dog Lover (45) Ready to Walk or Watch Your Pup – Offering Loving Care After Losing My Own, Let Me Help with Your Furry Friend! I have a flexible hybrid work schedule and spend time both in the office and work from home. Can do morning, lunch, after work & overnights. Hey there! I'm all about giving dogs the best care possible. I've got a fenced potty spot at my house and I absolutely love taking pups on walks. Whether your pup needs a quick bathroom break or an energetic walk, I've got you. I'll make sure they get plenty of exercise, have a great time, and come home happy and tired.

“Lisa was great with our animals. She kept us updated with lots of pictures. We really appreciate her staying the weekend with our pets. We will definitely be asking her to sit for us again!”

“Raina was very attentive and always provided updates on a regular. It was my first time i. A while using River again. It was as great and experience as before. I will definitely call on her again.”

About: I have grown up with dogs and cats from the time I was a newborn. I have had small, medium, and large dogs throughout my life (and bonus cats at my grandma’s house!). As a medical student living away from home, my classmates have come to rely on me to pet sit (dogs & cats) and house sit for them any time they’re out of town. It’s an absolute treat for me to spend time with animals again! I’m comfortable helping to train puppies, snuggling seniors, and playing with every age in between. As a medical student, my schedule is generally pretty flexible. I will almost always be available to house sit from at least 5pm-6am. On most days, I can take a break at lunch to run over and check on pets or go for a short walk. Depending on my rotation, I may have entire stretches of 3-4 days off! That may sound like a lot to plan around, but I’d love to work with you to accommodate both our schedules as best as possible! Because I grew up with dogs of all ages and sizes, I’m very comfortable with dogs of different temperaments, care needs, and crating requirements. Cats with high-care needs will likely be out of my comfort zone, but I’m always eager to learn something new!

“Michele was great! Will definitely look to book again.”

Fletcher C.

“Shannon did a FANTASTIC job taking care of my babies. Tons of pictures and updates! She took them for so many walks. They were spoiled!! I was able to enjoy my trip without worrying about them! Highly recommend!!!”

Lynne T.

“Awesome young lady. Made friends with the dog quickly. Just stopped at her work and the dog loved seeing her. She comes back next month.”

Cathy G.

“Amanda came to stay with our puppy and he absolutely adores her! She is friendly and reliable and I would recommend her anytime you need someone to care for your pets while you’re away!”

About: We’ve been hugging dogs since we were kids, and we’d love to hug yours! Penny, Ciel, and our family enjoy hosting furry friends - we take care of them and our pups play hard with them! Please note: *We cannot currently accept bookings for unneutered/intact male pups *We host a large, rambunctious group of pups throughout the week - pups who prefer quiet, calm environments may not have an enjoyable experience here, and we will happily recommend sitters who may be a better fit for your family Hosting pups is our full-time job - your pups become part of our family while they’re here! We spend our days with our guests, playing and chatting with them, and can attend to everyone’s needs regularly throughout the day. Our 24/7 dedication to giving your pups the best experience while away from your home makes us a great choice for day care and socialization opportunities! We accept bookings between 7am and 7pm; we will consider bookings outside these hours on a case by case basis, potentially for an additional cost. Our availability for picking up and dropping off is limited but we aim to be as flexible as possible. Reach out with your needs and we’ll work out an arrangement that works best for all of us! Our entire yard is fenced in - there’s room to run full speed! We can adjust feeding schedules as needed to accommodate your dog’s diet. In good weather, pups are free to go inside and outside at their leisure. We don’t require pups to use crates while we’re gone or overnight, but if you prefer your pup be crated at any time, we’re happy to do that and have multiple available. Male pups will wear a belly band for the first 24 hours of their stay, at minimum - this soft, absorbent band fits around their belly and attaches with Velcro on their back. Belly bands reduce marking behavior, especially in unneutered males. You may bring your own, but we can supply them, free of charge. Using belly bands keeps our home calmer, cleaner, and fresher by eliminating marking behavior and reduces anxiety for future pups by giving them less reason to want to mark over the scent of previous pups. We have indoor and outdoor security cameras in many locations that can be helpful to review if any safety situations arise. The safety of all of our pups is very important to us! (They’re also great for catching fun footage!)

About: I have been taken care of animals since I can remember! I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals/different breeds and I love it! I have been taking care for friends and family, and I’m just trying to get more out there! I’d cuddle with them, play with them, feed them and give them treats, I take them on walks, I’ve taken some dogs to get groomed, I’ve even given baths before, and I’d do whatever needed to be done! I’ve stayed over night with animals before while the owners were out of town and I love being with new animals! I’ve also had to take care of some animals that needed insulin and other medications! I used to have a senior dog that I would have to help get up and carry outside when he needed to go! I love taking care of any animals and have so much fun doing it! I am currently working part time so I’d definitely have time to play with the animals and take them out as many times as needed! I work morning shifts so I’m free in the afternoon! I’m always taking care of my animals as well so I’m definitely used to it! My kitties have a cat tree they love and lots of toys we play with! I can do whatever is needed to take care of them! I can create your dog if necessary!

About: I have experience fostering dogs with the animal shelter APL and have a small toy poodle of my own. He is very friendly with other dogs and loves to play. I love dogs and would love to have the opportunity to watch dogs and take care of others! I am open to watching dogs for a couple hours, a day, or even a couple of days if that is what is needed. My house has a small backyard and I am also available to do drop ins at the dogs own home. The area is very quiet and would be comfortable for another dog to be in. If I am caring for someone else's dog I plan on being home for the time I'm watching the dog so that it will be well taken care of. I’m currently only working part time so I have plenty of time to spend with your animals. I am available early mornings or early afternoons to give your animal a break during the workday! I am also available any time on the weekends. I have a fenced in yard and 2 friendly dogs to keep your dog company. I have a toy poodle and a golden retriever. I can also do drops in to walk or play with your dog as well!

About: I love playing with and paying attention to pups. Love to say hi to them every time we cross paths on the elevator in my building! Cats have the warmest place in my heart <3 As a medical student and proud rescue cat mom, pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I start each morning sitting with Ashley while she enjoys her wet food, and throughout the day, she keeps me company—often curled up beside me while I study. We’ve built a calm, comforting rhythm together that brings joy to us both. Caring for her during past UTIs taught me how to gently give meds, but mostly, it's our daily cuddles and quiet companionship that define my approach to pet care: consistent, loving, and attentive. For pups, as the weather gets nicer, taking them for walks is a great study break as well! Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s, I focus on creating a calm, safe environment that feels familiar and comforting. I follow feeding and care routines closely, give lots of affection, and respect each pet’s unique needs and personality. At home, I am in a 1 bedroom apartment, and pets enjoy a peaceful space and my full attention, especially during cuddle breaks while I study. In clients' homes, I’m respectful, clean, and reliable—keeping pets on their usual schedule, providing regular updates, and always ensuring emergency contact and veterinary information is readily available, so owners can feel at ease.
