About: I've had pets all my life cats, dogs, fish, hamsters, Bunnies, and taken car of horses. I love animals and am not afraid of their messes. During the summer I have plenty of time to take care of pets though during the school year certain times of day I won't be available due to classes. I've learned to come at pets with the caution they need. I'm very friendly and always want to be sweet to pets but I can be tough if the situation calls for it to not let animals walk all over me. I love animals and like taking the time for their needs.

About: growing up on a farm, I have been exposed to a variety of animals, including dogs and cats, from an extremely young age. Over quarantine I adopted my first cat and he has been my greatest companion ever since. Due to his chronic conjunctivitis, I have learned how to properly administer various medications, both orally and topically, in order to levitate his symptoms. I currently only taking morning classes at my university, so I am practically free all day and on weekends to tend to your pets needs! I have owned and looked after a variety of pets, all with drastically differing personalities and attitudes. I believe that despite the difficulty some pets may present, I am willing to be as patient as necessary in order to make sure a pet is safe and comfortable!

“I couldn't be happier with the pet sitting services provided by Clayton. It was clear Clayton has a genuine love for animals. He took the time to get to know my pets and understand their individual needs and personalities. While I was away, Clayton sent me regular updates, including photos and videos, which gave me peace of mind. My pets were well cared for, and I could see they were happy and relaxed. It's not easy to leave your furry family members in someone else's care, but with Clayton, I knew they were in excellent hands. I highly recommend Clayton to anyone in need of a reliable, compassionate, and professional pet sitter. Thank you for going above and beyond!”

18. Megan G.
“Megan is the most wonderful dog sitter I have ever had. She has taken care of my dog, a large German Shepherd, many times over the years. I always have such a good time on vacation knowing that my dog is happy, loved, and being well taken care of. Megan is natural dog person, and it's obvious that my dog is always excited to see her and to get to spend time with her. I have never trusted anyone as much as I trust Megan to watch my home and take care of my pet while I am away. She is a wonderful, responsible, caring individual, and I couldn't possibly recommend her more highly. If you're looking for an excellent trustworthy person to watch your home while you're away, Megan won't disappoint!”

About: I love dogs so much, they make my heart happy! I love caring for animals so please let me watch or walk your doggo! I have a vehicle. I have a yard with a lot of grass so I can take your dog out on a leash and play with them out there. It is not fenced though but that’s why I would have them on a leash. They would get plenty of love from me and a ton of kisses ! I can not wait to meet your doggy so we can have a good time together and play! Animals are so awesome and even though I’m more of a dog person, I still like cats as well :) Let’s meet and then go from there!
