Pet Sitting Talent

“She took great care of my dogs. I thought it was great that because of how hit it was outside she made my dog take a break. She cares a lot for the animals she watches.”

Lori G.

“Brandy was a lifesaver when we had to leave town for an emergency — she knows our pets and routines and jumped in the same day to assist. She went above and beyond to ensure everyone was cared for (ourselves included) and we feel so lucky to have her as a sitter.”

About: Welcome! I’m happy to share with you that I’ve been caring for animals for over 30 years, including dogs, cats, reptiles, farm animals, plants, and homes. Throughout that time, I’ve had the privilege of caring for pets of all ages, personalities, and needs—from energetic puppies/kitties and large breed dogs to senior pets who require medication, extra patience, and specialized care. *Before we move forward; an important sidenote to share is that you might notice in my review section some people will call me by my nickname, which is Azraiel, I’ve had that name for so many years that I have to include it in this little section here so that everybody has clarity😇) Moving forward~ One thing that has always mattered to me is understanding that every animal communicates differently. Dogs tend to wear their hearts on their sleeves, while cats often express themselves in much quieter ways. Learning those differences has helped me recognize when they’re excited, anxious, playful, uncomfortable, or simply looking for reassurance. I pay close attention to changes in behavior, appetite, mobility, and mood because those small details often tell us exactly what our companions need. I believe our animals are family members who trust us with their lives, and I believe they deserve to be cared for with that same love, respect, and attentiveness that I would offer my own family. Every pet has their own personality, routines, and preferences, and I enjoy getting to know each one as an individual. I also know that consistency helps pets feel safe and secure, so I do my best to follow their normal routines as closely as possible—whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, medication, playtime, bedtime, or simply giving them quiet companionship when that’s what they need. I bring a calm, patient presence and allow animals to build trust naturally, never forcing interactions. Along with compassionate care, I believe professionalism is equally important. I value clear communication, thoughtful updates, and dependable service. I enjoy sending photos and messages so you can relax knowing how your companion is doing while you’re away. You can also count on me to arrive on time (usually a little early), carefully follow your instructions, and treat both your pets and your home with the utmost respect. I take pride in leaving your home clean, secure, and just as you left it. My goal is simple: when you leave, I want you to have complete peace of mind. And when you return home, I hope you’re greeted by companions who feel safe, loved, understood, and genuinely cared for. That’s the standard I hold myself to every time I care for someone’s home and the family members who share it. Lastly, I know what it’s like to place your trust in someone else to care for those you love most, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly! 😊❤️‍🔥 Thank you for reading my little note here, I appreciate your time and energy~ Looking forward to connecting with you and your pet fam! 🐶🤍😻 I have in the past few months opened my life up in a way I have never done before. I wanted to experience a lot more freedom and flexibility and so that’s exactly what I have:) Well, that doesn’t disclose an exact schedule, I do want to communicate that I’m happy to discuss whatever schedule may reveal itself. I’m sure we can work something out:) You’ll notice the similar theme in what I expressed here compared to the other sections, regarding safety, trust and environment. I don’t mean to sound repetitive, but considering that we’re talking about a person’s home and family, I think, touching on repeated themes of trust, integrity, and good stewardship are well worth a revisit: 🤓🥰 I know that when you invite someone into your home, you’re not just trusting them with your house—you’re trusting them with members of your family. That’s a responsibility I hold with great care, and I don’t take it lightly. My goal is to honor the routines you’ve created, provide calm and attentive companionship, communicate openly, and care for your home and your animals with genuine respect. I believe consistency helps pets feel safe, so I do my best to maintain their normal routines while also paying close attention to their comfort, behavior, and individual needs. Whether I’m staying overnight or stopping by for a visit, you can expect thoughtful updates, dependable communication, and a home that’s cared for with the same respect I give your companions. I strive to leave your home just as you left it—clean, secure, and well cared for. Above all, I hope you can leave with complete peace of mind, knowing your companions are safe, understood, and cared for by someone who truly sees them as family. My commitment is to provide faithful stewardship of both your home and the family members who share it.

About: I have years of experience caring for pets, including my own animals and those of neighbors and friends. I genuinely love all types of animals and enjoy feeding, playing, or going on walks with them. I just got my own kitty about a year ago, since I am in Ashland for school and basketball, but I have a dog, two cats, and a chicken back in my hometown! I’m very comfortable with both cats and dogs, so I would love the opportunity to help take care of your pets or walk your dogs and make sure they’re happy and well cared for! I currently attend SOU as a student and women's basketball player, so I have classes throughout the week, as well as a few basketball practices/workouts. It is our off-season, however, so my basketball load is pretty light and I would most likely be gone for only 2 1/2 hours max during a few days of the week. I have a kitty who I take very good care of and love to death, so there would be no problem with your pets! I love going for walks throughout the day, so I would love to take your dog for a walk as well! I live in a clean, cozy apartment that my own cat loves. I would follow your cat’s usual routine and make sure they feel calm and cared for. I would give them all the love and attention that they need so that you feel comfortable leaving them with me:) I also live in a safe, outdoorsy neighborhood that’s great for dog walking, but I love to walk dogs anywhere. I always keep dogs on a leash and pay close attention to our surroundings to make sure they stay safe and comfortable as well!

“Lexy, has been a wonderful sitter for Char. She spends time giving social time and many pictures to enjoy. I will continue to have Lexy be my Go Too Sitter.”

“I reached out to Dora last minute, and she was absolutely amazing! Despite encountering some trouble with the lock on my house during her first visit, she never gave up. Thanks to her fantastic care, my 11-year-old bulldog, Noelle, is feeling happy and content. I am incredibly grateful for Dora's last-minute help!”

About: Hi there! I am a local pet sitter dedicated to full-time pet care across Jackson County. I treat pet sitting as a real business, which means my clients get complete reliability and absolute professionalism. I have flexible availability 7 days a week. Your pets will never be left alone for hours on end; they will have my undivided attention, companionship, and care. Having grown up around dogs and cats my entire life, I am highly experienced in maintaining strict feeding schedules, tracking bathroom routines, and providing proper exercise. I specialize in overnight house sitting, keeping your pets stress-free in their normal home environment while you travel. Expect daily photo updates, excellent communication, and total peace of mind! I have completely open, 24/7 availability every single day of the week, Monday through Sunday. My primary operational windows are perfectly set up for busy schedules: Anytime during early morning and from 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM (ideal for mid-day dog walks and lunchtime potty breaks while you are at work) and from 3:00 PM to 11:00 PM (perfect for evening drop-ins, dinner feedings, and overnight house sitting.) Because pet care is my full-time focus, I am highly flexible, accommodate last-minute bookings easily, and will always be there exactly when your pet needs me. Your pet’s safety and the security of your home are my absolute highest priorities. Because I specialize in care directly inside your house, I treat your property with the utmost respect, discretion, and care. During overnight house sittings or drop-ins, I follow a strict safety protocol: I double-check that all doors and windows are locked, keep your home exactly as clean as I found it, and ensure your pet stays strictly on their familiar routine to prevent any anxiety.When we are out on walks, your dog will always be securely leashed, and I stay 100% focused on their surroundings, avoiding interactions with unknown animals to keep them completely safe. I am fully backed by Rover’s background check and premium insurance, and I provide continuous photo and text updates so you never have to worry about what is happening at home.

“She was great about letting Clover out and feeding her while I was at work. She’s very responsive, has good communication, and is punctual and thorough. Would highly recommend and will continue to use her for future visits. She also send me pictures of Clover and that is really nice.”

About: I've had lots of experience especially with small dogs. I've been a foster parent for the humane society and ended up adopting a dog that I fostered. However, he recently passed so there are no dogs in my home at present. I may have a small dog in my home from time to time as I'm fostering again. I'm comfortable with senior dogs, too. My home is quiet and comfortable. I'm currently working very part-time, so I will have time to care for your treasured dog. I'm available weekends, too. I'm out of cell range during the day on some Thursdays. So if you try to contact me on a Thursday, it will take several hours for me to get back to you. Otherwise, my response rate is exceptional. I have a fenced back yard with a small lawn. If you have me care for dogs in my home, I have crates they can use. Environment is quiet and tranquil.

“Daisy took great care of my dog, cats and yard while I was out of town. It was a last minute booking but she was able to accommodate us. I will definitely use her again.”

“Chelsey did a great job caring for our pets! She provided plenty of photo updates and made sure to lock up before leaving the home. We’d be happy to have her over again!”

About: I have been taking care of animals my whole life, when I was younger I would rescue dogs off the street and get them well and made sure they were safe as I called family’s and shelters near us. I currently have a senior australian shepherd and 17 bunnies living in my backyard! I helped train 2 dogs ( a lab and a pit bull) for a family member in the last 4 years! I currently work a part time job which would give me plenty of time to care for your pet family! Outside of my job I love to hang out and enjoy the sun! I’ll make sure to care for your pet including playing, feeding, making sure there’s clean water, and cleaning litter boxes or the yard if necessary!

About: Dogs have been in my life ever since I can remember. I speak their language, and they speak mine. While growing up as an only child, I connected with my dogs as if they were siblings. By nature I'm a very compassionate, caring, and a responsible person. You can rest assured that your precious ones will be loved and nurtured while in my care! I'm an artist and an art instructor. I'm home most of the time, and currently have no pets. I miss having a dog in my life, yet have not gotten over my last fur baby. She lived to 16yrs old, and she was the best! I have a happy home that welcomes pets. I love to take walks, and with a doggie by my side it makes the walk so much better! There are no other pets or children so I can give your fur baby all my attention! My home is clean and quiet. I make sure it is dog proof so they can roam. I have a small unfenced yard, and am in a great walkable neighborhood
