“Karrie was truly a cat whisperer with our cats. They all came out and said hello on our meet and greet. Our shyest kitty was on her lap the first night. I'm so glad we found her! I feel like the kitties had a vacation as well while we were out of town. She obviously took extra time and attention with each of them. Custom arranging our senior kitty's space just for her with warming mat, toys. Clearly spending plenty of play and cuddle time with all. They were all happy, relaxed, and well rested when we got home. She also took great care of our home; gathering mail, organizing our new cat storage space, spot cleaning the carpet better than we left it. Karrie is the best!”
About: Hello, my name is Brandon, and ever since I can remember I’ve been around pets (mostly dogs). I love all living things, especially animals. I started taking care of animals in the 8th grade taking care of my aunt’s cats and from there I’ve cared for all sorts of different animals. Being a pet owner myself I know how much it means that our companions get the best care and in my hands I promise to take care of them as my own, offering baths (if needed), time outside weather it’s just for a walk or playing at the park. For in house visits I can accommodate for whatever needs to be done for your four legged friend and any tidying up that might need to be taken care of. Very flexible person and accommodating to needs of the pet and/or individual. My primary goal is to help in any way I can and provide the best care I can. Please contact me if interested! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine and something I genuinely enjoy. Whether it’s morning walks, midday drop-ins, or evening feedings, I structure my day to ensure each pet gets the time, attention, and care they need. I’m consistent, reliable, and always make sure pets feel safe, loved, and well-cared for—whether it’s a quick visit or an extended stay. I care for each pet as if they were my own, always prioritizing their comfort, safety, and routine. In a client’s home, I follow their specific instructions closely—whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or administering medication. I make sure their environment stays clean, secure, and familiar to minimize stress while you're away. For drop-in visits, I give pets plenty of love and attention while making sure all their needs are met. Communication is key, so I provide regular updates and photos to keep you informed and reassured.
About: I have three medium sized dogs and one cat. I care for and love all my animals. My passion for my animals will help me better take care of your own pets. Responsible and trustworthy. I am fit and active, can handle rowdy or bigger sized dogs. I am looking for some extra cash, why not do something worth while. Taking care of animals is super fun and something I love to do. I frequently dog sit for my family and am accustomed to staying overnight. Can help watch over the house as well. Checking in going and outgoing mail, taking out the trash, or even grocery shopping. I would love to help take care of any animals in need! Would love some more experience in this area.
About: I’ve been caring for animals my whole life. I’ve had a large variety. I’ve had Rottweilers German shepherds, dalmatians, cats parrots small birds tarantula pretty much you name it I’ve had it I think so. I’m willing to take on whatever you can throw at me because I really love animals and I treat them as if they were my own. I’m retired and I’m looking to fill my days with a little bit of care for animals and I enjoy it immensely so and I like the fact that I can pick my days and hours which is what drew me to this app I would be there to comfort them and feed them and water them and make sure that they get outside. I could do the poop patrol if that’s necessary so yeah just basically needs spend time with them. Keep them comfortable know that their mom and dad are coming home soon for you always comforting to tell him that so it’s pretty much my philosophy.
About: I’ve worked as a vet assistant for over 3 years, so I’m super comfortable caring for pets of all kinds—including seniors, pets with medical needs, and those who are a little shy or anxious. I know how to give meds, keep an eye on health issues, and make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and cared for. I treat every pet like they’re my own—whether that means extra belly rubs, quiet time, or just keeping their routine consistent. Plus, if anything ever seems off, I have the experience to catch it early and keep you in the loop. You can relax knowing your pet is in calm, capable hands. Pet care is a big part of my life and something I genuinely love doing. I’m currently in vet tech school from 9am to 12pm, Monday through Thursday, so I plan the rest of my day—and weekends—around caring for animals. Whether it’s drop-ins, walks, or house sitting, I have open availability in the afternoons, evenings, and on weekends. Since I’m training to become a veterinary technician, I’m always looking for ways to build experience and spend more time with animals. Caring for pets outside of school feels natural to me, and I love giving them the attention, comfort, and care they deserve. I am completely comfortable to do drop ins or stay in your home with your pet while you are away and can give updates as often as needed. I am going to start school in the morning for veterinary technicians but I am available in the afternoons and weekends.
“Laura was amazing and kept updating to let us know everything was fine. By the pictures i could tell that my cats were in good care and it looks like they were very happy with her also. Would recommend and would book again.”
“Daisy did an amazing job. Our older cat usually hides under the bed whole time while strangers are in the house. She did not with Daisy. She was out and about. I really appreciate the extra care and effort that Daisy put into her care.”

I believe in the liberal use of treats and pets to encourage a happy relationship between my animal friends and I. As well as alot of exercise so we can all sleep better!
