About: For me, pet sitting isn't just a job – it's a joy! I'm a lifelong animal lover with a plethora of pets and I am committed to providing your beloved companions with the same individualized attention and affection they receive from you. My philosophy is simple: every pet is unique, and their care should be too. I go beyond basic feeding and walks, focusing on stimulating playtime, comforting routines, and genuine companionship. You'll receive regular 'pupdates' or 'cat-tales' because I believe in open communication and building a trusting relationship with both you and your pet. Let's make their time away from you feel like a fun, safe, and happy staycation! I live my life for my kids and my animals. My 9 pets get all the love they need and I always have room for more. As a freelancer i always have freedom of schedule. Im careful to never bite off more than I can chew so rest assured your babies will get the same quality time I provide my own. When I'm entrusted with caring for your beloved pet in your home, safety is always my top priority. I understand that leaving your pet can be a worry, and my goal is to ensure their well-being and your peace of mind. I will take proactive safety measures; developing a pet profile & collecting vet information incase of an emergency. I will also provide vigilant care monitoring behavior patterns and supervising play and exercise to keep your baby safe. Your trust is paramount. Ill stay in touch with regular photos and updates so you can see first hand how they are doing. My commitment is to treat your home and your pet with the utmost respect and care, ensuring a safe, stress-free, and positive experience for everyone involved.

“Jazmin was super communicative, attentive to my baby’s needs, and followed each instruction provided! I’d definitely have Jazmin walk Beaux again if schedule’s aligned!”



“Jennifer is fantastic! She’s prompt, does the full walk and skipper has responded super well to her! Would def recommend her to anyone who cares about their furry friend and needs some extra help!!”



“Angie is fantastic! She’s so good with our dog and makes sure to fill us in if there were any behavioral or stool issues we need to be aware of!”


“Melody helped me with my Great Pyrenees/Saint Bernard mix while I underwent a knee replacement. I could not be more pleased. Her customer service skills are wonderful and she was very accommodating to Max’s (and mine) needs. If you ever need a dog walker/boarder/sitter please don’t hesitate to look up this family!! They are great.”


About: I’ve been a proud military spouse dog mom for over four years and absolutely love being around animals. Caring for my two dogs has taught me everything from daily walks and playtime to managing different personalities and routines. I’m very patient, responsible, and always make sure pets feel safe, happy, and loved. Whether it’s walks, feedings, or just some good company, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m available part-time for drop-ins and dog walks. My schedule is flexible during the day, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine. Whether your pup needs a potty break, a walk to burn off energy, or just some company while you’re away, I’m here to help! At home I make sure my dogs feel safe, loved, and well cared for every day. We go on regular walks, and have plenty of playtime. I pay close attention to their needs, whether it’s exercise, cuddles, or quiet time. I also keep their space clean, provide fresh water at all times, and make sure they get lots of affection and positive reinforcement.

About: What sets me apart is the presence and care I bring to every interaction. With 15+ years of hands-on experience across a wide range of animals—dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, chickens, rabbits, and guinea pigs—I’m not just pet sitting, I’m attuning. I notice the little things: a shift in behavior, a need for extra cuddles, or when it’s time to give space. My calm, loving energy helps animals feel safe and understood. I don’t rush through visits—I show up fully, giving your pet the same patience and warmth I give my own. As a homeschool mom with a flexible schedule and a peaceful home environment, pet sitting fits naturally into my life. I’m home most of the day, which means your pet gets consistent attention, companionship, and care—not just quick check-ins. Caring for animals is something I genuinely love, and it brings joy and balance to our rhythm at home. Whether it’s daily drop-ins or extended stays, I have the time, space, and heart to give your pet the presence they deserve. Whether your pet stays in my home or I care for them in yours, my approach is rooted in calm, attentive, and loving presence. In my home, they’ll enjoy a relaxed, pet-friendly environment with plenty of snuggles, play, and quiet time—whatever makes them feel safe and happy. If I’m coming to you, I aim to keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible, respecting their space and energy. I treat every animal like family and always follow your instructions with care and attention to detail. We have a fenced in yard, and plenty of walkable sidewalks.

About: Hey there! I'm a proud military member and animal shelter volunteer with 10+ years of experience caring for pets of all kinds—dogs, cats, and even the little critters! From playful puppies to sweet seniors, I’ve got the skills to handle it all. Need meds given or special diets followed? No problem! I’m all about keeping your pets happy, healthy, and stress-free. I’m big on communication, so you’ll always know how your fur-babies are doing. With me, it’s not just pet sitting—it’s personalized, loving care that gives you total peace of mind. Let’s make sure your pets have a tail-wagging good time while you’re away! Pet care is a central part of my daily and weekly routine. Each day, I dedicate specific times for walks, feedings, playtime, and any special needs such as administering medications or training sessions. I schedule my work and personal activities around my pet care responsibilities, ensuring that each pet receives consistent and attentive care. My flexible schedule allows me to accommodate various needs, whether it's daily visits, overnight stays, or extended care. This dedication ensures that every pet in my care feels loved, safe, and well-attended to throughout the week. In my home, I create a safe and welcoming environment for pets by providing a designated area with comfortable bedding, toys, and plenty of space to roam. I maintain a consistent routine for feeding, walking, and playtime, ensuring each pet feels at home. I also have a secure backyard for supervised outdoor activities. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow the owner’s instructions closely to maintain the pet’s usual routine. I ensure their environment is clean, provide fresh food and water, and engage in regular play and exercise. I also send daily updates and photos to keep owners informed about their pet’s well-being. My goal is to provide personalized, attentive care that meets each pet’s specific needs, whether at my home or theirs.

About: I have taken care of a variety of different pets with different conditions since I was a kid. I know how to administer oral medications daily and have knowledge of mobility issues as well. I have a lot of knowledge of birds as well due to me having parakeets and a conure. I would love to be considered for help of almost any animal you have! Just ask me questions and I will answer. Thank you :) I mainly work mornings of 4:30am-10 or till 1 so I am available after that with every Saturday off. So times after this or on days I have off I will prioritize care. Before my dog passed away I used to have to administer thyroid pills daily. Now with my birds they need their water and seeds fresh daily with fresh fruit/vegetables offered as well. I love personally shopping and making food/treats for animals. I think they deserve the care of handmade items as well as you can base it to their needs.

Rachel M.Star Sitter
“I wholeheartedly recommend Rachel as a pet caregiver. I’ve had the pleasure of seeing the love, patience, and dedication she brings to every animal in her care. Whether it’s walking, feeding, administering medications, or simply spending quality time with pets, Rachel approaches each task with responsibility and genuine affection. Animals are naturally drawn to Rachel’s calm and caring demeanor and it’s clear that she treats every pet as if they were her own. I have relied of her on numerous occasions to care for my own pets! She is incredibly reliable, communicative, and trustworthy—qualities that are so important when entrusting someone with the care of your furry (or feathered or scaled) family members. If you’re looking for someone who will not only meet but exceed your expectations as a pet caregiver, look no further than Rachel! She’s the only one I’d trust.”
