About: Hi! I’m Subin — a lifelong animal lover with a deep appreciation for the unique personalities of both dogs and cats. Whether your pet is playful, reserved, or somewhere in between, I provide attentive, compassionate care tailored to their needs. From belly rubs to evening walks, I treat every pet as if they were my own! Friends and family have long trusted me to care for their beloved companions, and I bring that same sense of responsibility and warmth to every home I visit. You can count on me to ensure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive care from morning through evening. Whether it’s early walks, midday check-ins, or evening feedings and playtime, I’m available throughout the day to ensure your pet’s needs are consistently met. While I do not offer pet care in my own home, I take great care to respect and maintain the routines, spaces, and preferences within my clients’ homes. I follow all provided instructions closely, keep things clean and organized, and make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for in their familiar environment.

About: I've grown up with dogs in the home and have personally owned both a senior dog and a young pup, both were rescues. I know how to be patient with dogs as they adjust to new surroundings and people and know how to treat each dog differently as their needs will vary. I especially love taking dogs on nice long walks where they can explore and have fun outdoors! I'm a routine dog mom and value upholding a pups routine as I care for them in their owners absence. I'm currently working full time at a college and I mostly work from home. While my job is 9-5 I have a lot of flexibility with my schedule and can offer frequent potty breaks, fun play time indoors or outdoors, and long walks if the weather permits. I do have my own dog and she’s friendly with others, but mostly prefers humans. Just let me know your pets needs and I can make it work for us all! As a dog mom, I value safety at all times. I always keep items that are not dog friendly out of reach, set boundaries for where pets can be (especially making sure to uphold house rules), and ensuring I give cuddles and care that each pet wants. I always make sure to have water accessible and toys if your pet enjoys them and only under supervision to make sure they're safe as they play! As a dog mom, I know how important and loved your pet(s) are and I will treat them as my own while they are in my care with the guidance from your rules and expectations of course!

About: When it comes to dogs, I've got experience with every stage of life—from the energy of a bouncing puppy learning its first commands to the gentle, watchful care of senior dogs who need extra comfort and support. My secret? I tune in to each dog's unique personality and needs. I’m that person who will sit with a shy pup until they feel safe, or go on an extra-long walk for high-energy dogs who need to burn off steam. And if you've got a clever escape artist or a curious troublemaker, I’m not afraid to get creative! I’ve trained dogs to master basic commands, helped socialize pups for better behavior, and used enrichment activities to keep clever minds active and engaged. 🦴 My goal is to leave every dog not only happier but a bit wiser (or at least more tired!) than when we started. Simply put, I’m not just a dog sitter. I’m the friend who’ll show up with treats, patience, and a heart dedicated to making each visit as enriching as it is fun. Because to me, every pup is family. 🐾 Pet care is woven right into my everyday life, making it easy for me to provide attention and love throughout the week! With my flexible schedule, your furry friend will rarely be left alone and can enjoy a homey, cozy atmosphere all day long. I’m in school, but my afternoons are wide open for playtime, walks, and one-on-one attention. 🐕 Once I'm home, I focus fully on their needs—whether it’s burning off some energy with a game of fetch, a walk around the neighborhood, or simply some cuddle time on the couch. Weekends? Even better! I have all the time in the world to make sure your pup feels right at home. With my adaptable schedule and dog-friendly setup, you can count on a reliable, warm environment that fits naturally into my routine, keeping your pet safe, happy, and thoroughly entertained! 🐾 Your dog's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. Living in the Stanford dorms, I’ve created a pet-friendly space where dogs can feel right at home, even in a new environment. My dorm is cozy and inviting, with enough space for your pet to relax, play, or curl up for a nap. 🐶💼 Stanford’s campus is filled with beautiful common areas and plenty of green spaces, perfect for a daily dose of exercise and fresh air. Whether it’s a peaceful walk through tree-lined paths or a playful romp on a nearby lawn, your dog will have a chance to explore and enjoy the outdoors in a safe, controlled way. 🏞️ I’m mindful of routines and safety practices, so your pup will always have the structure they need to feel secure. Whether it’s managing mealtimes, sticking to established commands, or simply offering reassuring attention, I make sure every dog feels right at home. You can trust that your pet will not only be safe but will also be showered with all the love and care they deserve. 🐾

About: Hi! I’m a reliable college honors student with over 10 years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Whether it's daily walks, playtime, or overnight stays, I treat every dog like my own. I also have 5 years of experience cat sitting and understand how to care for feline friends with the patience and attention they deserve. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to have someone trustworthy and caring looking after your animals. I’m here to give you peace of mind and your pets the love they deserve! I am working part time 7 days a week from 8am-1pm, but am free all times other than that everyday of the week. I can get up early or stay up late to walk or take your pets. Very flexible and responsive to text. I follow each pet’s routine closely to keep them comfortable and happy. Whether in my home or the client’s, I provide a safe, calm environment with plenty of attention, play, and affection. I make sure pets get the right amount of exercise, timely meals, and any special care they need. I always keep communication open with owners and send regular updates/photos so you know your pet is in good hands. Cleanliness, safety, and your pet’s happiness are my top priorities.

About: Hi, I’m Dawn and I have been a pet parent for over 25 years to rabbits, guinea pigs and 4 dogs with 2 of them of senior age. All 4 dogs were raised since they were puppies and they are currently based in my hometown with my parents when I moved here. My intuition and experience allow me to provide your pet with the best care and most comfortable environment away from home, so rest assured that they are in good hands. Let’s chat! I’m mostly available during weekdays from 7am to 12 midnight and certain weekends. Date and timings can be further discussed if you require my services. I have a balcony at home and have space available for your pet to roam around freely if needed. Happy to chat more to see what else you’ll require
