About: I have had pets in my home for as long as I can remember. These loving, sweet members of our families deserve only the best care. I have been pet sitting and walking for a few years off and on. I also volunteer at Young Williams Animal Shelter so I interact with all kinds of different sweet animals often. I have 1 cat and 1 dog right now, both are my babies that I love dearly. I also am working through the process of getting my dog training certification so I can further my training and education on these sweet animals! I hope you will consider me to be your pet sitter and I can’t wait to meet your fur babies! I am a college student so I do have classes, but I have no classes Tuesday and Thursdays and I have lots of free time during the day! I love animals so I thought this would be a fantastic way to spend my time on the side! Your pets safety is the upmost priority when considering pet sitting. I only do in home sitting because I want to ensure it is the care is to your standards. I also do have means of travel if dog parks were an interest, and I have a seat attachment for all sized dogs to keep them from moving all around the car!

7. Rachael S.
“Rachael was a life saver and stayed with our fur babies over the holiday. Just knowing they were in the hands of someone who cared for them as I would made leaving them so much easier. We came home and the house was just as we left it and the dogs were happy and cared for!! Will book again in the future for sure!”
8. Holly B.
“Holly just did an overnight stay to take care of our active, deaf boxer, our elderly shitzu/lhasa apso dog and 2 cats. She did a great job taking care of them and making it a relaxing environment for them while we were away. We came home to some happy animals and we could tell they had a great time! We will be definitely be looking to have her care for them again!”
9. Chloe H.
“I can't say enough out Chloe and her love for animals. Not only does she have several of her own that she loves but she loves each and every one she comes in contact with. Chloe really gets to know your pets by spending time with them. Chloe is great with walking and keeping your dogs entertained while you are away. If Chloe is available during the time you are looking you are in luck!!!”

11. Deborah S.

12. Sydney L.
“Sydney is awesome and exceeded expectations during her first-time pet sitting for my dog with separation anxiety, who was extremely comfortable with her from the moment she walked in. Sydney provided picture updates and kept great company with my dog in my absence. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter. If you're on the hunt for a someone who genuinely cares, Sydney's your person. Can't wait to book her again!”

14. Brittany B.
About: Hello my name is Brittany Banks and I have a love for animals that has sent me to get a Bachelor's of Animal Science and work at a vet clinic the past 4 years. I also have experience with horses and am going on my second year of veterinary school. I have also dappled in animal behavior so I am in tune with the behavior changes in animals which helps me make them more comfortable and safe around other animals. I also have a lot of references I can provide including vet and character references if that would help ease your mind as I know that leaving a pet behind on vacations can be difficult since they are like our children. I’m currently only a veterinary student so I have the flexibility of pet sitting or walking any time I’m not in a class which leaves me open most of the time! I have a huge yard and a friendly golden retriever who loves having dogs over and is also happy to take them with us to the dog park if the owner would like!
15. Madalynn J.
About: I’ve had dogs all my life, I adore taking care of them. Family has always relied on me to take care of their dogs when they’d go on vacation. That includes feeding, bathing, taking on walks and playing with them. I also have experience with puppies. I am home all hours throughout the week except for one I have some errands to run, I do this as a full time job so I’m always open! I do not have a fenced in yard, but I do like taking dogs to the dog park to run out some energy or playing with them in my yard on a lead!!! They will always have someone to play with between my husband and I.
