About: I have 17 years of experience handling dogs of various sizes, personalities, health conditions and ages. I am comfortable handling medications and meeting pets at their desired energy level. I have fantastic hiking trials and parks near my property which is fantastic for pets who may need socializing or simply have an energetic personality. I have a flexible schedule Monday - Sunday and am open to various pet care services such as overnight stays, quick drop ins, or day sitting. I have a fenced yard and a home located in a safe and quiet neighborhood with great security throughout the property. No animals reside in my home , and I have great parks and hiking trails that are walking distance from my home.
About: I’ve been an animal lover since I was a little girl. I pet sit for family & friends, and i’ve decided to start taking care of other peoples pets because it’s something that I love and enjoy! I am a kitten foster, I work with a rescue and have taken care of 7+ newborn kittens that were going to be euthanized. I love doing this not just as a job but as a hobby ☺️ I am currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to care for your pets. I am an overthinker so I always think about the worst case scenarios and do my best to avoid anything 😭 Besides that I am on my second year of college looking for a side hustle! If you have any concerns Ive probably researched it 99% of the time, so feel free to ask :) I have 1 cat (indoors & outdoor) and fenced back yard. Accommodations for your pets are available if they are not good with other animals. I have plenty of free time for play time. I enjoy going on walks and exploring nature.
About: I have cared for dogs and cats since I was 10 years old. I was taught that the animals eat first because they can’t speak. I enjoy spending time with animals. They are great company I believe petting an animal can lower your blood pressure. Your pets need extra affection while you’re gone. I’m there for that. I am a retired mom of self-sufficient teenagers. My flexible schedule allows me to do overnights and weekends and multi night care. I look forward to these jobs. I’m experienced with crating. I love some dog walking exercise. I also really enjoy spending time in a backyard as long as it’s fenced in and secure.
About: I'm a young active college student that used to have a dog. He was very large so I'm very aware of how to handle all types. I truly will work on tending to your needs and being a security guard I'm very good with following directions. I truly loving and playful, I'm not one to disappoint. With that being said I'm truly flexible with dogs needs and everyday care, I will put on active wear if we need to run or walk and I'm a protector, so I would treat them like my very own. My mother has taught me that updates are the most comforting thing so if that's what you need to know your dog is safe a text takes 2 min out of our play time.
“Denise has been amazing with Stella and Milo. They have lots of energy and she has been great to adapt to their own unique personalities. Stella is 9 1/2yo and started limping one night and she let me know right away sending me videos and pictures. She always sends great updates and pictures which makes my shifts so much better!”

About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs for more than 10 years plus helping others in need with theirs when ever possible I’m a go getter I’m currently helping my grandma at her house while raising my teenage daughter so I am looking for flexible jobs with animals I really love I have two dogs of my own that I take care of as well they go for walks and are spoiled with so much love
“Myla is a responsible, communicative, and very kind dog walker. My dogs ADORE her. I am very glad I found her and would happily recommend her to anybody considering a dog walker.”
About: I’ve cared for and owned dogs since I was 6 years old. At a young age my parents put me in charge of all pet responsibilities like clean ups, feedings, and grooming. I’ve pet sat for many family members before and my friends like to say I have a way with animals. Dogs have a very special place in my heart. I’m currently a college student and working part time. I do have open mornings most days of the week and what better way to fill that than caring for pets! I have a gated yard and grass for your pets to run and play in. I’m very attentive to what a pet needs and understand what they are asking for.
“My dogs love him and even get excited waiting for their walk. Very good at communicating at availability and works great with my 2 100+lb dogs. Also takes great pictures of my dogs”

About: Currently have a Terrier Mix doggy of my own. I use to have a Pitbull Mix but he passed away few years ago. I have experienced with senior dogs and can administer oral medications. My availability is very flexible on the weekends, whether it’s mornings, afternoon, or evenings. I can do check-in/ drop-in visits or pet sit for you at your convenience. Please let me know your pet’s feeding, walking, potty routine to accommodate their needs. I can provide you with photos throughout the day or evening! :)
About: I trained both of my own dogs (a full size Merle golden doodle + chihuahua) and have cared for senior dogs too. I’m patient, reliable and treat every animal like family. Being vegan is part of that same love for animals. I’m at ease with dogs of any size and experienced in handling bigger, stronger breeds safely. I’m an independent jewelry designer and founder of my brand so my schedule is flexible and can work around pretty much any schedule. My weekends and holidays are open as well. I care for pets in their own home, keeping their routine consistent, feeding on schedule, medications on time, and enrichment throughout the day. I’ve house sat for friends’ dogs, including but not limited to pit bulls, greyhounds, shih tzu’a and mixed breeds, always prioritizing their safety and comfort while respecting their home.
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 9 years old and have always connected with them naturally! I've owned over 6 dogs in my life and currently have 2 sibling blue-heelers that are spoiled rotten! I am a home-body so I enjoy spending my days at home with my family and my dogs. I would be more than happy to care for your pup :) I was currently laid-off so I will be spending a lot more free time at home, pet sitting would be a great add on :) I have a fenced yard, an alarm system, and our dogs sleep in the garage but have access to the backyard with their dog door. Our dogs also have crates that are used when we sit dogs

“Anna did an amazing job with our senior dog. She sent daily pictures and updates and It was so nice not to have to worry about anything while we were away. Thanks so much, Anna! I will be in touch for when we go out of town next. Thanks for the sweet plant and card as well. You are the best!”

About: Hi! My name is Alexis, and animals have always been one of the biggest joys in my life. I absolutely love dogs, cats, and animals of all kinds. I’ve had cats and dogs my entire life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I currently have two dogs and five cats of my own, so I understand the love, attention, and commitment that pets need every day. If you know me, you know I’m the person who gets excited every time I see a dog on a walk or a cat lounging outside. I’m always the first one asking if I can pet a dog, and I never pass by a stray animal without trying to make sure it has food, water, or a little kindness. My love for animals is genuine, and spending time with them never feels like a job to me. Over the years, I’ve also helped care for my own pets when they’ve been sick. Whenever one of my cats or dogs needed medication, special care, or extra attention, I was usually the one making sure they got what they needed. Because of this, I’m comfortable following care instructions and being patient with pets who may need a little extra support. In addition to my experience with animals, I work in healthcare, which has taught me the importance of responsibility, attentiveness, and compassion. I understand how important it is to pay attention to details, follow routines, and provide quality care—skills that I bring with me when caring for pets as well. I’m often the go-to pet sitter for family and friends whenever they need someone reliable to care for their pets. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, medication administration, or simply keeping your pet company while you’re away, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I know that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision. My goal is to make sure your furry family member feels safe, loved, comfortable, and cared for while giving you peace of mind that they’re in good hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your pets! Pet care fits really naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I currently work night shift, which means my days are usually free and very flexible. Because of that, I have plenty of time and availability to dedicate to walking, drop-ins, and spending quality time with pets during the day. I actually love that my schedule allows me to be fully present when I’m caring for animals—I’m not rushing between work or distracted by a 9–5 schedule. I can give pets my full attention, whether that means morning walks, midday visits, feeding routines, playtime, or just keeping them company and making sure they feel comfortable while you’re away. My routine also makes it easy for me to be consistent and reliable with scheduling. I’m used to balancing responsibilities and working odd hours, so I’m very organized and good at sticking to care instructions and time-sensitive routines. Overall, my flexible daytime availability makes pet care a perfect fit for my lifestyle, and I really enjoy being able to spend that time doing something I genuinely love. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my main priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and as relaxed as possible while their owners are away. I always take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions so I can keep things consistent and familiar for them. I approach every visit with patience and calm energy, letting pets warm up to me at their own pace. Whether it’s feeding, walks, litter box cleaning, playtime, or just spending quiet time together, I make sure each pet gets the attention and care they need. I’m also very detail-oriented when it comes to following instructions. If a pet has a specific feeding schedule, medication routine, or special care needs, I make sure everything is done exactly as requested. I have experience administering medications and caring for pets with extra medical needs, so I’m comfortable handling those responsibilities with care and reliability. While I’m in the home, I also make sure everything stays clean, respectful, and as you left it. My goal is not only to care for your pet, but to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands and your home is being respected. Most importantly, I treat every pet like they’re my own—always with love, patience, and attention to their unique personality.
About: I’ve always had dogs/cats throughout my life. I worry about them as if they were my own kid, animals bring so much joy to the world. I believe they deserve to live their best life ! I work throughout the day from 7-3:30 PM. I work down the street from my home, so it is very convenient to come to and back from my breaks. I will care for them as if they were my own. I love animals, I genuinely enjoy their company and believe they are little humans at heart. I will always make sure they are well fed, in right temperatures , and mentally stimulated.
