Whitney was incredible. She is a quick responder, followed all of our requests, and really went above and beyond when taking care of our pup. She helped us out with our last minute request, over the Christmas holidays no less. So thankful to her, she is a professional. 🙏🏼

About: 🩷 AVAILABLE FULL TIME 🩷 meet & greets with all new clients 🩷detailed photos and updates 🩷 extra cuddles, kisses, & treats !! Hi, my name is Sydney, your pet’s new bestie! I’m a huge huge animal lover with over five years of experience caring and connecting with animals of all types. I prioritize just that- connecting with your fur babies! All animals have their own distinct, unique personality. I take the time to learn and understand your pet(s) so that they still feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you are away! I currently have two lovely cats of my own (Rocky and Mocha). I also have two dogs (Lucy and Mufasa) and dozens of chickens! I am extremely passionate and dedicated to giving quality care to my favorite fur babies! I have been regularly volunteering at a local cat rescue and doggy daycare since I was 14 years old. I am comfortable administering oral medication. I know how stressful it can be to leave your furry loved with someone you hardly know- I try my best to make this experience as easy and smooth as possible for everyone! We’ll schedule a meeting (unless it’s a last minute booking!) and discuss routines, medication, diet specifications, and anything else we may need to go over! I will keep your pet’s everyday routines in place to the best of my ability. I take lots of pictures and give frequent, detailed updates throughout the day. Your fur babies are in very good hands!! I can’t wait to meet you and your furry fam! 🐾 I am a substitute teacher and currently enrolled in college, so I’m in a period of down time (June-Aug)!! I am available anytime, any day needed! Requested pet info : 🐾 your pet’s everyday routine 🐾 any food specifications / schedule 🐾 any medications/medical info 🐾 their favorite things to do! I want to make sure your pet has a great time with me! I ask for these things to keep their daily routine in place and to make sure they are safe and having fun! We can talk about these things and more at a scheduled meet n’ greet! Thank you so much 😽🐶🩷 I’m a substitute teacher and college student, so I currently have a lot of down time! I’m available anytime you need, don’t hesitate to contact! I will keep up the regular routines that you have in place for your fur babies to the best of my ability! I want to ensure that they feel safe and comfortable around me. For cats, I will clean out the litter box(es) at least once daily. For dogs, I will make sure to let them out every 2-3 hours or more frequently if requested/noted!

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my genuine love and understanding of animals. I have a Great Dane of my own, so I’m experienced with large breeds and know how to handle dogs of all sizes with confidence and care. I’m also planning to become a veterinarian, so I’m passionate about animal health, behavior, and giving pets the best care possible. Whether it’s a playful puppy or a senior dog needing extra patience and comfort, I treat every animal like my own — with love, attention, and respect. Pet care is a big part of my everyday life! I already spend time walking, feeding, and playing with my Great Dane, so caring for other pets fits easily into my routine. I love staying active and spending time with animals, whether that means morning walks, playtime, or just keeping them company. Since I’m passionate about becoming a veterinarian, I enjoy using every opportunity to learn more about different animals and their needs — so pet care isn’t just part of my routine, it’s something I truly look forward to every day. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I always focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I make sure they have fresh food and water, regular potty breaks, walks, and plenty of playtime or cuddles depending on their personality. I pay close attention to any instructions about feeding, medications, or habits, and I love giving photo updates so owners know their pets are happy and safe.

Carrie is absolutely amazing! We are 100% repeat customers from here on. She was great with the dogs, and even worked with them on their training while we were gone. She is very punctual and professional, and communicates very well to let you know everything is going okay. She takes amazing pictures and clearly loves working with animals. Thanks Carrie, you will be hearing back from us again!!!

About: Hi, all! Years of living with and caring for pets and working as a veterinary assistant has led me to be attentive, knowledgeable, and most importantly, so loving to any and all animals. I currently care for a pup, cat and ducks in my life. I intend to care for your pet as if it were my own! I am easy-going, flexible and willing to abide by any reasonable requests in care-taking. This won’t be considered “work” for me. It’s a bonus for the joy of spending time with and caring for animals and helping out pet parents as well :) I hope to meet you and your pet soon! Krista E. As far as my schedule, I am completely open during the daytime. I work evening shifts five days a week, but my schedule changes weekly. For walking: 1-2 walks a day from the hours of 8-3. I can also do night walks on days that I work, outside of the hours of 3-10ish, depending on the day. If I am off, I can walk at any time in the day or evening. I am willing to make multiple visits in a day. For House Drop-Ins: Similar to above, the evening times may vary. For House Sitting: I receive my schedule weekly, so I am available for overnight at least twice a week. However, if consecutive days are needed, I will be available for morning and afternoon care, but will have to leave for work and return afterward at night. Again, this time varies, so it will be either 3-8:30/9ish that I am gone, or 4-10/11ish. I can understand if this is an issue, but am willing to walk during the day, feed, and let out for a potty break as soon as I am able. I do not accept pets in my home because of the other animals already here, but as far as in yours, I am clean, courteous, quiet, respectful, and most importantly, there to keep your pet well-cared for, entertained, and at ease.

About: Aside from experience taking care of Cats, and Dogs, I also am experienced in Lizard Care, and I am willing to watch over exotic pets! I am relatively always free. I do plan to start college hopefully soon. However if something comes up, I am always very communitive with clients. I unfortunately do not have the space at my own house to board pets, however as someone staying overnight, or just popping in to take care of things, I am always respective of rules and boundaries. Tell me what I can or can't do, and I will follow that to a T. Pet wise, ill feed, water, and even clean up after them if any accidents occur. and I will ensure to give them lots of love and care as if they were my own. My services also extend to exotic pets. I am more experienced in care of reptiles, specifically lizards, (I am a very avid reptile lover), however if I have any questions I am able to communicate and look to my employer for answers and instruction. Pricing for exotic pets will follow the same listing for dogs!

About: I am an active triathlete, so your pet will have plenty of exercise and entertainment! My own dog is a pitbull mix, so I have experience with aggressive breeds and large breeds. My family dog I take care of when my parents travel is a senior, so I have experience with senior care. I work a hybrid schedule, and days I am home are very flexible as well as weekends. For a typical home sitting job I will do a morning walk and breakfast, midday walk during my lunch, and evening meal and walk. If your dog cannot sleep alone, I can bring them to my home to sleep in a large crate with a clean bed. I am very active, so whether you have a fenced in yard or a neighborhood or would allow me to drive your dog to a nearby trail, they'll have engagement while you are away. I am also proficient in belly rubs, so your dog will have cuddles and comfort. If your dog comes to my home, I have a fenced in yard they can run in while my dog enjoys his sunbathing. In my home dogs are crated while I am away for their safety.
