“Aicha has been so great with our dog. He has had some special needs at times and she is always accommodating and responsive with updates. We have had both last minute done drop requests and in-home stays and she has been awesome to work with. Highly recommend.”

“Melinda is one of the BEST dog sitters I have ever had! Not only did she take amazing care of Louie, my cranky old pup, she kept me informed about his daily activities and noticed that he was shaking his head and might have an ear infection, which tells me she was extremely aware of his actions. On top of being so loving and caring to Louie, she left my house cleaner than I left it! Melinda is a kind, compassionate and professional, and I am over the moon to have such a wonderful dog sitter!”

About: With an energetic pup of my own, I am no stranger to the needs of fur babies. Consistency is key when it comes to pet care and training. I will make sure your pups gets plenty of exercise with a walk around your local neighborhood. Each dog is unique and I will be certain to cater to your individual pets needs. But no matter what, I will be certain that each doggo gets the same loving care as if they were one of my own. I am currently very flexible in my schedule so I can offer walks or drop ins for potty breaks and daily enrichment or house sitting for more comprehensive care for your pet when you’re away! I would love to check on your fur baby if you're busy so they don't get lonely! Personally, I have my own rambunctious pup named Lila who loves treats, walks, and attention. I would treat your dog like my own in care and affection!

“Meeting Phillip and Jenny made us feel like we were going to leave Jackson in good hands. We were right! He sent pictures of there outings and she looked comfortable and happy. She was worn out when we got home. We’ll be booking again!”

About: Not only have I grown up with large dogs for the past 23 years, but I have also consistently pet sat for families in need of a loving and reliable sitter. I’m the type of person who has to stop and say hello to every dog I see, so caring for furry friends is something that comes naturally to me! I treat every pet as if they were my own, giving them plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away. Although I do not train animals, I do have experience in providing oral medication as well as walks, feeding, and love! I’m currently in a transition period and taking a gap year, which gives me plenty of time and flexibility for pet sitting! While my schedule varies, I have a very open and adaptable availability and can often accommodate different scheduling needs. When caring for your pet in your home, I make it my priority to keep their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I’ll provide plenty of love, attention, playtime, and cuddles while making sure they are fed, exercised, and cared for according to your instructions. I also treat your home with the same respect and care as I would my own!

About: I loved animals since I was young and have experience caring and sitting for them, whether it be dogs or cats. I have experience dog and cat sitting for my friends and family for years, and believe every animal should get the love and respect they deserve! As a dog mom to my own Maltipoo, Mochi, I treat every pet in my care with the same love, attention, and patience as I would my own :) * I have hands on experience administering insulin injections for diabetic cats. I have experience pet sitting for my friend's cat, Kiwi, such as changing her food and water bowls, cleaning out the litter box, and making sure to follow vet specific medication and insulin routines. * I have experience walking dogs of all breeds, from small pups to larger, stronger breeds. I make sure collar and leashes are secure before walking, and I am attentive to them during and after walks. * I ensure to follow feeding schedules, dietary restrictions, and household rules to keep your pet's routine consistent! I make sure to clean and change water and food bowls, clean up messes in the backyard and/or litter boxes, engage in lots of play times, and have experience giving dog baths when requested. * I pay close attention to each pet's body language, distinct personalities, and individual energy levels to make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable. I also make sure to give speedy updates to owners with pictures and messages :) I currently have open and flexible availability and will do my best to adjust to your availability and schedule :) From mid-day walks to strict feeding times, I would be able to provide tailored pet care times. Safety and peace of mind are my top priorities. When caring for animals, I want to make sure they feel secured and well loved by double checking harnesses and collars before every walk and stay fully aware of our surroundings, adjusting my handling depending on your dog's size and energy. I also make sure to bring drinking water if requested. I also make sure all doors, gates, and windows are locked during visits so pets stay safe indoors, along with regular updates and photos during visits and/or walks!

Which always reassures us that our boy is doing ok!. Joel is always very respectful of our home and leaves it clean and tidy. We highly recommend Joel.to look after your beloved furry friends, weve booked him again for September for a longer stay, and January for a weekend!”

“Char was excellent when we had a last-minute cancellation and needed to find a sitter. We have cats with some health considerations and it was calming to know that they were with someone who knows how to administer medication. We had zero worries the whole weekend as we received colorful updates and photos. Will definitely be using Char’s services again!”

“The best! This was Zeus’s first overnight without me, and he was so well taken care of, and so happy to see me when I got home! Dustin even took him for a long walk in the morning before I arrived! Can’t wait to have him back! One million stars ⭐️”

About: I’ve been around pets my entire life, and I truly believe they’re one of the best parts of the world. I was a dog owner for over 10 years, and after losing my sweet girl to cancer, I really missed having furry friends around. That experience reminded me just how much joy and companionship pets bring into our lives. From dogs and cats to fish and hamsters, caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I’m a family guy with a comfortable home and a safe, secure environment where your pet can feel relaxed, loved, and right at home. I understand how stressful it can be to leave your furry family member with someone else. My goal is to give you peace of mind while making sure your pet gets plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and care. Whether your companion needs walks, drop-in visits, sitting, boarding, or simply some extra love and attention, I’m happy to help. I’ll treat your pet like part of my own family and make their safety, comfort, and happiness my top priorities. I look forward to meeting you and your four-legged family member! 🐾❤️ I work part-time in the evenings and am available during the day to spend time with and care for your pets. While I’m at work, my wife and daughter are home and will be there to care for them. Your pets will always have someone at home with them, so they won’t be left alone. You can have peace of mind knowing your pets will receive care, attention, and companionship around the clock. I have a good-sized, secure backyard where dogs can safely enjoy some outdoor time, as well as a public walking path right behind my house for those who enjoy stretching their legs and getting some exercise. I love taking dogs for walks—it’s a great way for them to get fresh air, exercise, and enrichment while keeping them happy and comfortable. I always make sure pets are supervised, cared for, and treated like part of the family while they’re in my home.

About: Loved and cared for two puppies, potty trained them and how to sit and shake. Currently caring for our second chihuahua that is 10 y/o I am currently taking classes on the weekdays for a Personal Training program—which is really flexible. The weekends will be needed for a second job. Treating every pet and home like my own, I follow routines closely by keeping doors locked, sending photo updates, and staying responsive throughout your trip.

“Holly has pet sit for us on several occasions now. She’s always so communicative and attentive, and our pets love her! We can always leave town with full confidence that our pets are so loved and cared for when Holly is around— she’s so patient and thorough with our elderly dog and all of his supplements in particular. Thank you, Holly!”

Madison O.

“Natalie beat my expectations! She was extremely attentive of the dogs in every way. My house looked better than when I left it and the dogs were very sad to see her go. I will certainly be using her services again and I wish I used her in the past. I’m recommending her to all the pet owners in my family because she made house sitting feel truly seamless. She even watered my plants and picked up after my dogs which were things I told her she didn’t have to do! Thank you so much!”

About: Hi, I’m Laila. I provide structured, safety-first pet care tailored to your animal’s exact routine. I specialize in 12-hour dedicated overnights and local drop-ins. All services are provided at your location, as I do not offer care in my own home. My canine experience comes from dog sitter/walking over a few years, as well as owning a 85-pound reactive senior dog and regularly handling and training a high energy Labrador. This has given me extensive hands-on experience with reactivity, leash manners, and proactive behavior management. I am also a cat owner experienced with nail trims, grooming, and feeding routines.For small animals and livestock, I have owned a free-roaming rabbit for over five years and am skilled in rabbit health checks, grooming, and administering medication. Additionally, I have four years of equine experience, including two years working on a ranch. I am confident caring for senior horses, mucking, lunging, and handling general barn chores for animals like goats, pigs, and chickens.Because I work a traditional corporate schedule near Howe and Arden, I have strict boundaries to ensure total reliability. Overnight stays require a 12-hour minimum commitment, though I am flexible on travel distance for these bookings. Midday drop-in visits are strictly limited to a tight radius near my workplace so I can arrive on time during my lunch break. I require a minimum of 3 days advance notice and a mandatory meet and greet before confirming any first-time bookings. I have a flexible schedule and but I work normal hours (9-5 Tuesday-Friday), which allows me to fully accommodate your pet’s needs while house sitting. I also volunteer and care for my own pets, but I always plan my time so I can stay overnight when booked. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive care and maintain your pet’s routine with consistency and peace of mind. Your pet’s safety and well being are my top priorities. I create a calm, structured environment where pets feel secure and comfortable. I follow your routines closely, use handling techniques you prefer, and monitor behavior for any changes. Whether it’s managing reactive dogs, administering medications, or caring for shy cats, I ensure your pets are safe, happy, and stress free while in my care.

About: Ever since I was 10 I've taken care of dogs. I have experience in many different ages of dogs from newborn puppies to full grown. With the school year starting I am unavailable Tuesdays and Thursdays. However, when I am available your pets will be getting the best care possible and my full attention I will always be willing to feed, clean, play and walk with your pets if they need it. I can stay overnight too as well.
