“Very reliable and great with my dog.”

About: Hello! I've been away for a while as my family and I were traveling in an RV for several years. We are home bound for a time, taking a break from nomad life, and I will have limited availability in February, and increased availability starting in March. Looking forward to caring for your fur babies again! The important stuff: It's never too early, or too late to book a visit, and I can accommodate any special diet or oral medication requirements. Final booking subject to initial meet-and-greet, but most pets should be accepted, as long as there are no severe aggression issues. Pictures and videos will be available on request- wouldn't want to bug you at work or interrupt a meeting! Please text me for updates so I know you are able to accept them. The more you ask, the more I'll send! Why I love pet sitting I've had pets for as long as I can remember- Started with a cocker spaniel named buffy when I was a baby, two cats named Oscar and Meijer, no third cat, for obvious naming issue reasons! haha, a rottweiler named Sheba during my pre-teen and teen years, a few temporary fosters in my early 20's, the adoption of my sweet lab mix, Bella, in 2009 from the Houston SPCA, and the craigslist rescue of Holo the husky when we purchased our first home in September of 2012. We currently have two house panther rescues from Paws and Whiskers, Wednesday and Deimos, named by my 7 year old. I can do social drop-ins and feeding for cats or other small animals as well! Also comfortable with reptiles. My experience administering medication: I do not have formal veterinary training to give shots. Please limit meds to the edible/sprayable/droppable kinds. I'm a stay at home mom, and my husband works full time, so my availability is limited around my child's schedule. Typically I'm open nights and weekends, with possible morning visits after meeting and for return customers. I can't offer services in my own home currently, but I'm happy to stop in just for walks and food, or stay for longer social visits to give your pets some extra love and attention.

“Samantha has been great with my little older dog. She always makes sure he’s dressed for the weather and keeps me updated on his behaviors and anything unusual. 😊”

About: I am a Registered Veterinary Technician at a shelter I used to volunteer for, and have had my own dogs and cats my entire life. I’ve recently gone part-time and would enjoy walking your pets or stopping in for those needed potty breaks. I used to walk dogs for the shelter I now work at. I also foster animals for them, most dogs and puppies. I work at the shelter Thursdays and Fridays. I am available other days of the week on a part-time basis. I don’t have preferred days in mind at this time. I will certainly follow all instructions provided and will treat your pet as my own while in my care. I will respect and properly care for your home environment.

“Christie has been walking my husky Jak for several months and has done a great job! Jak is really comfortable with Christie and she has even dog sat for him several times and he loved it!”

About: I have experience with dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and birds. I love all animals, young and old. I’m looking forward to taking care of your fur baby!! I work 2 part time/student assistant jobs so I have plenty of time to care for your fur babies! I am always willing to schedule and plan ahead as well. I have one cat at home, but that’s it. I am not afraid to work with dogs that are excited or jumpy and I can take them in and out of their crates!

About: Hi! My name is Jayden and my wife Lisa and I are excited to care for your pup like they’re part of our family. Lisa works from home and I work a hybrid schedule, so there will almost always be someone home with your dog to give them attention, supervision, and plenty of love throughout the day. We also have 2-year-old twins who absolutely love dogs and are used to being around them. We always make sure interactions are gentle, safe, and fun for everyone. We have a 1-year-old King Charles Spaniel named Redford who is very friendly and loves having other dogs around to play with. While we don’t have a fenced-in yard, we live in a great neighborhood that’s perfect for walks. Your pup will get at least two long walks every day, plus as many potty breaks as they need. We love getting outside and making sure dogs get plenty of exercise and stimulation. Our goal is to make your dog feel comfortable, cared for, and right at home while they’re with us! I am completely free on the weekends. Happy to do drop in visits or walks. I am also free during the evenings and during lunch hours on Wednesday and Friday. Let me know what schedule will work well for your pet. I will treat your pets like they are my own. I will make sure to give them the love and attention that they need and carefully look over your instructions to make sure they are properly cared for.

“Elizabeth is fantastic to work with! She communicates quickly and effectively. I felt very comfortable having her care for our pup. Highly recommend!”

About: Ever since I can remember I’ve had a huge passion for animals. Because of this, as soon as I could work I got various experiences caring for, and working with animals through professional pet sitting, working at a large and small breed petting farm, working at a dog kennel and daycare, and attending a dog grooming school. Through these experiences I’ve had years of hands on training learning to monitor the emotions, health, and overall well-being of each pet (old or young) that I’ve came across. I would love the opportunity to have you trust me in caring for your furry friend, and promise to do whatever I can to give both you and your pet the best possible pet care experience! Currently, pet care is what I base my daily schedule on, so your pup is my top priority! In the late spring, summer, and early fall months I do work part time. If given enough time in advance I am able to set my own schedule, meaning that I can schedule this job around the needs of your fur babies ! To ensure the trust and safety of your pet, I will always take EVERY safety precautions that I can. Before each pet care service I make sure to study all the information I can about your pet to make sure I can give them a personalized safety plan, as well as a caring and stress free environment. Also, I am dog CPR and emergency medicine certified.

“We were a little uneasy about our first time letting someone else take care of our dog, but Teagan has been great with Teemu! She can sometimes be a handful to walk but she seems to be much more well behaved with Teagan. Teagan is very communicative and flexible, she’s been very easy to work with too. We’re very grateful to have found someone who is so great with our dog, she’s made the whole thing very easy! 10/10 recommend!”

About: I’ve been dog sitting for years for a few clients. Looking to meet some new fur babies. I will stay in your home for the pet's comfort. I am comfortable walking most dogs and administering medications. I do work a part time job and am in college during the fall and winter. I haven’t needed to decline a job for these though. I can easily make time for your pets. I will follow whatever rules you have when letting the dog out and going for walks. I will make sure your home stays clean for your return.

About: I have taken care of neighbors dogs, families dogs and my own for years. I worked at a dog daycare and boarding facility for 6 months before deciding it was not the right fit for me. I came to the conclusion that not all dogs do well in a kennel situation and can't receive the individual care they deserve in that large scale setting. I have cared for and walked dogs that are reactive or scared of people, other dogs, bikes and other things this includes my own dog. I am not an expert but have a good amount of experience, patience and I don't mind a challenge. I currently work part time well trying to start my own business and am looking to supplement with dog walking. House sitting Includes: - Sleeping at clients house. - General pet care feeding/watering playing in yard & snuggles provided. - I will not be at the house 24/7. Pets will not be left alone for more then 6 hours during the day. (I work part time) - 15min walk every other day is included. Walks are not given on the first day of house sitting. - Photo/video updates at least once during the stay more depending on length of stay. I want to meet you and your dog, cat or other pets! Meeting helps to ensure that I am the person you trust with your beloved pet and that your pet is comfortable with me. I try to create a fun yet engaging walk for dogs. I do this by involving treats and asking dogs to do tricks well on walks. I also allow for plenty of sniffing time. I would love to take your dog to the park or walk in your neighborhood. I ensure mutual respect between me and the dogs I walk and care for, this helps to ensure the safety of your dog and myself. I will leave your home as I found it. That means I will clean toilets and floors and whatever else is needed to insure that you come home to house that is as clean as you left it.

I have 5 years experience caring for pets if all types dogs, cats, farm, reptiles you name it and I can help. I am certified and I can provide a list of references. I currently have a full time job but have a room dedicated to pets for them to stay in and roam and play while I’m gone depending on there behavior I let them have access to whole house while I’m working and when I’m home I take them on walks and let them play outside till there’re ready to go back inside. I have a room where they can be closed in and a cage if they want if they’re ant to be free they have access to whole house other than my bedroom and laundry room.

About: Pet Care Experience: I have hands on experience caring for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to gentle seniors. I’m attentive, patient, and genuinely love getting to know each animal’s personality. I’m confident with feeding routines, medication reminders, and creating a calm, safe environment. What Sets Me Apart: I treat every pet like my own, offering personalized care, consistent communication, and lots of affection. My ability to handle different temperaments, provide loving, general care, and support older pets with mobility or comfort needs helps me stand out as a reliable, thoughtful sitter. I am a college student who has morning/early afternoon classes, so the rest of the day I am available to work with animals! I will be on winter break starting December 10th and will have full availability every day! I am very friendly with dogs and have a way with being trusted easily.

About: I have experience caring for both dogs and cats of different ages and personalities, including puppies, senior pets, shy cats, and high-energy dogs. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding schedules, playtime, medications if needed, and giving pets lots of attention and patience. My schedule is pretty flexible, and pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I enjoy walks, playtime, cuddles, and just spending time with animals throughout the day. I know how important it is to feel confident leaving your pets in someone else’s care. I always make sure pets are safe, secure, and comfortable.

About: I've had pets ever since I was a young pup myself. I can tell when they need something and love taking care of animals when they need it the most! My family loves animals as well! We have 3 dogs (2 small and 1 medium). Let us share our love with your little one for awhile! I'm a military vet and stay at home father. My wife is currently Active Duty Navy and mother of 3 beautiful young ladies. I spend most of my day with my 2 dogs. We go to the park l, car rides, and other fun activities. I have a large & friendly neighborhood with plenty of places to explore. We encourage walking for both the pet and our own health. We have 2 friendly and playful dogs to keep your fur baby company as well! If there are any medications or special needs, we will make sure your baby is taken care of! They are family! Our dogs live a good life. They have beds, treats, toys and a loving family. Our kids and their friends love to take them outside and run with them! We keep our pets up on their shots and will do anything we can to make sure your pups enjoy themselves. We brush our pups twice a week. Bathe them 2x a month. (They like a little dirt on them for awhile) we take walks and runs every week to keep us all in shape and limber. I provide my pups with joint support treats everyday. Our pets are crated at night to prevent any accidents. Whatever your pet is use to is what we will attempt to accommodate. We currently have a fenced backyard and friendly neighbors with pets as well.

About: Just a mom with two older boys that love animals and want to care for and enjoy different animals and teach them some responsibility in the process.

Yard is 80% fenced with lead leash for bathroom breaks. We currently have one very calm lab mix that nine years old. One older cat that isn’t bothered by anything and two 4 month old kittens that were recently rescued from the shelter.

About: Hi! I’m Lily, and caring for animals is genuinely one of my favorite things in life. I’ve had pets my whole life and have also worked at a doggy daycare, so I’m very comfortable handling dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I own dogs myself—they’re very docile and love having friends—so I understand how important it is to find someone you fully trust with your pets. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including anxious pups and dogs with special needs. One of my dogs is deaf and responds to sign, so I’m especially patient, attentive, and tuned in to nonverbal communication. Whether your pet needs high-energy playtime, structured walks, or just a calm and comforting presence, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I’ll treat them like they’re my own—lots of love, attention, and updates so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. I’m reliable, communicative, and genuinely excited to meet your pets. I can’t wait to give them the care they deserve! My schedule is flexible and allows me to provide consistent care throughout the day. I currently work full-time, but I’m in the process of transitioning roles, which gives me increasing availability. My partner is home by 2:30 PM every day, and we’re both home in the evenings, so your pet will have plenty of supervision, attention, and company. We make sure pets are never left alone for long periods and always prioritize their comfort and routine. I’m happy to work with your pet’s specific schedule and needs—just let me know what works best for them! Your pet’s safety is my top priority. We have a fully fenced-in backyard with turf, providing a clean and secure space for safe outdoor play and bathroom breaks. Inside, our home is pet-proofed to prevent access to anything unsafe, and we always supervise interactions to ensure a calm and controlled environment. I’m attentive to each dog’s behavior and needs, and I take introductions slowly to make sure everyone feels comfortable. You can trust that your pet will be in a safe, secure, and well-managed environment at all times.
