“My dog isn’t the easiest to get out the first try because he is so scared with new people. Daniel got him out and stuck with it which I’m so thankful! I’ll continue to ask for his help when I need it.”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Kristen was amazing with Sterling! She was kind, communicative, and totally in tune with his quirks. I loved getting photo updates, and it was clear she treated him like her own. He came back happy and relaxed. I’d book her again in a heartbeat!”
“Bryce took great care of my dog and went above and beyond to ensure all of my dog’s needs were met. Communicating with Bryce was very easy and he gave me updates to assure me that my dog was in good hands.”

About: I’ve been around dogs since I can remember and taking care of dogs since I was 10. I have been trusted with various friends and family’s dogs and know how to clean up, bathe, feed, play, and love your dog(s)! I am currently back home for the summer and working part time as a lifeguard! I typically am available most of the day when I am not working. My work schedule varies, but I will always make time to fit your dogs in during my day! I am constantly monitoring your dog to make sure they aren’t getting themselves into trouble and also being aware of anything they may need while also giving them as much attention as they need! I love hanging out with dogs and want to have fun with your dog while also making sure they’re taken care of!
“Winter and I love Elizabeth! She is amazing and makes me feel better knowing my little guy is walked while I am taking care of patients at the hospital! Your pet is in good hands!”
About: I've loved animals and had a childhood dog, Chubby (a suspected spitz mix). But as a grad student who can't stay in the same place forever, I don't have the stability to have my own dog these days. I would love to help others take care of their babies! I am very patient and love taking walks. During the summer, I'll be working part time teaching Korean in the middle of the day. I am available in the early morning, late afternoon, and evenings Mondays through Thursday, and all day most Fridays and weekends. I am very mindful of pet safety--my cat is indoors only and he's never escaped or gotten lost (except for a 30-second adventure when he was a kitten), and I'm very patient with dogs on leashes and won't let them pull or run off.
“Mel is great! She went out of her way to meet with us within hours of reaching out and walked our dog the next day. She goes above and beyond. Has great attention to detail”
“Yasmine is great! She’s very communicative and is quick with responses. She’s great with dogs who can be reactive (like mine) and knows how to handle any situation. I highly recommend her to take care of any pup :)”
About: I have a very anxious small dog and two cats. I work well with nervous animals and blended fur families. I am punctual and very caring for your pets. I am flexible and fully available for pet care this summer and willing to work around all of your pets’ needs no matter the schedule! Earning you and your pet’s trust and ensuring their safety is very important to me. I approach new pets with care and understanding. I follow instruction and direction very well.
“Taylor was awesome! She was very considerate about the hot weather and took my dog out for a later walk if the pavement was too hot. She also left notes about if he peed or pooped so I knew he was on a normal potty cycle. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone!”
About: I have watched and cared for my neighbors' dogs, cats and other small pets since I was 16. Petsitting is my favorite and most rewarding job. I have taken care of senior dogs as well as young puppies. I have also taken care of senior cats and kittens. My favorite thing to do while dog sitting is go to the dog park. I am currently in college full time and living off campus. On Saturdays and Sundays I don't have class so your furbaby would get my full attention on weekends. All days besides Wednesday I have only one class, so they wouldn't be left alone for more than 3 hours. In my apartment I live with two pet friendly roommates, so your pet would get lots of human attention. If you wish to have your pet crated when left alone I can do that.
About: I have cared for my elderly dog for 8 years and I absolutely love all animals! I also have job experience caring for children, making me a responsible and trustworthy sitter. Over summer, I am mostly free all week. During school time (beginning the end of August), I will be available part-time around classes Monday-Thursday and will be free Friday- Sunday. I will make sure your pets remain safe and comfortable while you’re away. While sticking close to their routine, I will respect your space and keep everything tidy.
About: I had rescued a litter of kittens when they were only a few days old! I found them in a box and decided to care for them until they were eight weeks old. I fed them formula from their bottles, bathed them, potty trained them, and played with them for hours! I even kept one of the kittens, and named him Salem! I’ve seen it all when it comes to cats, considering I’ve technically raised one! I’m used to shy cats, lovey cats, and even the ones that are more aggressive and don’t want you around haha! I also used to foster dogs as well. I’ve had small to large dogs and even had some dogs that were deaf, blind, scared of people, or had health problems. I love to care for animals and make them feel loved and special. After all, they deserve it! I’m a Stay At Home mom! My schedule is wide open and I’m available for all hours (besides early early morning). I’m available Monday-Friday as well! I understand that your home is your sanctuary, mine is too! I will follow your directions to the nitty gritty! I can even send pictures and video of your little fur babies as well, keep you updated, and answer any questions you have!
About: I can cover basic commands, housebreaking, and socialization, ensuring a solid foundation for their future behavior. I am comfortable with pets that require special medical attention. I have no current job during the week so I was looking for a job that I could do for a while that was fun and I could put passion into. Freely Space Happily Looking to give the pet a comfortable area and the owner a trustworthy employer who’s best interest is in the pet while they are away.
About: Ive had pets as long as I can remember and have always loved animals. Ive had dogs, cats, birds and more. I can't wait to help others by taking care of their beloved animals. I am currently working a full time job Monday through Friday, with weekends off. The weekends are typically for running errands and sitting at home doing homework, as I attend college online. I will feed, bathe, walk and play with the animals whenever they need and do whatever service that is necessary for caring for the animals.
About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 8 years old. I started by watching neighbors dogs while they were out of town until my family got dogs of our own.

Annabella M.
“Annabella is by far one of the most trustworthy people who has ever pet sat for me and my family. I have 3 Italian mastiff's (Cane Corso). They are my friendly giants but most people are intimidated when they see them. They each weigh 120+ lbs each and they come up to the heights of my hip. For reference I'm 5'8. But she took impeccable care of them. She followed all of the instructions Ieft with her and all parties seemed more than happy. Since her first time she's come back approximately 5 more times to watch while on vacation. My family, including the dogs, love having her around and we all look forward to her presence. I find comfort knowing my dogs will be safe with her.”

Without hesitation, I would have Eli take care of my dogs anytime.”
