I believe every dog deserves a gentle touch and expert attention. For a closer look at the happy pups I’ve worked with, feel free to visit my Facebook page, Canine Care & Compassion by Sarah. Professional Dog Groomer with 9+ years of hands on experience offering check ins, nail trims, ear cleaning, emergency shave downs, & pick up and drop off services for appointments with my salon. I work Monday through Friday 8am-3pm as a dog groomer. Im available any day of the week for early morning (before work), afternoon (after work) , and evening checkins. I will not be doing overnights. I can come by your house and make sure your fur baby is fed, let out to go potty or taken for a walk, given fresh water, has playtime, and give them lots of love and belly rubs while you're away! In addition to that I can also clean their ears, trim and file their nails at home, spot shave any matting, brush out your dog, provide a comfort cut, or even take your pet to work with me for a day at the spa!

“We love Katy! I have a special needs cat and she handled him with no problem (other than a little cat wrangling him from a few hiding spots!) She responded and communicated with us very well and I can't give enough stars. Thank you Katy!!!”

About: i’ve had cats and dogs my whole life so i have plenty experience with both smaller and larger breeds. i currently have an australian shepherd/cattle dog mix, named Apollo. he is an epileptic baby so im also familiar with administering medications, not so much injectable medications though. i also have experience with guinea pigs and hamsters. all pets require love and patience. i’m currently working part-time and studying full-time. my schedules varies week to week but i am sure that we can work something out that fits both your pets needs as well as my own. i will care for you pet(s) however you need or request. i just ask that you give me detailed direction and guidance for what’s typical for your fur baby and any specialized care they may need.

“Kathleen is amazing! She was warm and loving towards my babies. I felt so comfortable that she was taking great care of my boy while we were away. I loved how accessible she was and that she would send me pictures of my baby every day. This was my first experience using this app and I have been raving about it to all my friends with pets. I would highly recommend both Kathleen and Rover. To actually feel comfortable leaving my fur babies while on vacation is priceless.”

About: With 21 years of military service, I bring a unique blend of commitment, discipline, and attention to detail to every aspect of my life. I grew up as part of the Future Farmers of America (FFA), where I gained extensive hands-on experience in raising pets. This foundation in animal care has shaped my practical approach to dog and cat husbandry. Currently, I maintain a diverse array of animals, including a black lab that I personally trained for duck hunting, a cat I’ve leash-trained to go on walks, a turtle, and a small-scale quail farm. My experience has taught me the importance of precision and organization, which I apply to managing my pets, ensuring everything is in top shape and that the animals receive the best care possible. I finish my workday in the early afternoon on weekdays, and I prioritize your pet during my free time. Your pet’s care will always be my top focus. I’m also available for early morning visits to accommodate your schedule. I treat our pets like family. Without children of our own, our 'fur babies' are everything to us. I care for every animal as if they were my own, ensuring they receive the same love, attention, and care that I give to my own pets.

About: I’ve been around animals since I was 8 years old and have cared for a wide variety of pets, including dogs, cats, and small animals. I’m comfortable with all sizes and breeds, from small to large dogs, and I understand that each pet has their own personality and needs. My experience has taught me how to be patient, attentive, and responsive to animals, whether that means keeping up with an energetic dog, giving extra care to a shy pet, or maintaining a consistent routine. I truly enjoy being around animals and treat every pet like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for at all times. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I’m a full-time online college student, which gives me a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive and consistent care. As a single mom to a 9-month-old, I spend most of my time at home, so I’m already in a routine that supports being present, reliable, and responsive to pets’ needs throughout the day. Pet sitting and drop-ins align well with my lifestyle, allowing me to balance school, parenting, and caring for animals without conflicting with a traditional work schedule. I’m able to incorporate feeding, playtime, litter care, and companionship into my day while maintaining a calm and structured environment. This also gives me the opportunity to do something I genuinely enjoy—caring for animals—while earning income in a way that fits my current responsibilities. I take the safety, comfort, and well-being of every pet very seriously. I follow each client’s instructions closely to maintain their pet’s normal routine, including feeding, litter care, medication if needed, and any specific care guidelines. I approach each pet with patience and respect, allowing them to feel comfortable and secure in their own environment. I also treat every client’s home with the utmost respect. I keep spaces clean and tidy, follow all house rules, and ensure doors, gates, and entry points are securely handled. I am mindful of security and privacy at all times, and I leave the home as I found it or better. My goal is to provide reliable, trustworthy care so pet parents feel confident and at ease while they’re away.

About: Hi there! My name is Haylie and I’m a nursing student at UTMB. I’m a lifelong dog lover and proud owner of nine amazing pups of all different breeds and sizes. Taking care of them every day has given me tons of experience with all kinds of personalities, routines, and special needs. I truly love spending time with animals and making sure they feel happy, loved, and well cared for. Since I was unable to bring my dogs to school with me, I’d love to help take care of others! Whether it’s playtime, walks, or snuggles, I’ll treat your pets like part of my own family! As a nursing student, I’ve learned how to balance responsibility, care, and time management — skills that carry over perfectly into pet sitting. I usually finish my classes around 4 p.m. most days, which gives me plenty of time in the afternoons and evenings to care for pets. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. I make sure every pet is well looked after, loved, and secure while their owners are away

About: I have had lots of pets. From newborns to Seniors. Pets are amazing. Take your dog for walks or just sit with your pet in the sunlight for company I’m retired so I can walk your dog anytime. I can come over when you need me to. I’m flexible when it comes to scheduling Right now, I don’t have any pets. I get my dog and cat fix by visiting friends that have pets. Your pet will be treated like he/she is my pet.

About: I live in a lovely gated community with a great street for dog walking. I would also be happy to walk your dog on the seawall or on the beach and will even send you pictures of your pup throughout the day! I love dogs of all sizes and will treat them as if they were my own. I am open to both hosting your dog and/or going to your home to walk, dog-sit or house sit. I am a very reliable and responsible person and will always treat your animals and home with the utmost respect. I hope that you would choose me to take care of your fur babies and look forward to spoiling them with snuggles and long walks on the beach. Even timid rescue dogs take to me, as I feel that animals can sense good energy. :)

“Michelle too great care of my kitty while I was away.”

About: Since I was a little I have always loved animals. I have worked at a veterinarian hospital so I am familiar with medical needs for pets. I have spent countless hours volunteering at animal shelters and rescue groups. I have fostered pets from newborn to senior and even special needs. I am fully qualified to care for your fur baby. I’m currently working from home and available to take on a little more responsibility, so I figured why not have fun while doing it :) I have a 10 yr old Chihuahua. Animals are allowed to roam free in the house as long as they’re potty trained. I have a nice large fenced in backyard for them to run and play.

About: I’ve raised young pups from bottle, have fostered and adopted, and we now have four rowdy but sweet dogs in our home! I frequently pet sit other family’s and friend’s pets, and I’ve also worked at a doggy boarding/day facility for years, where my own lab was used to assess other dog’s temperaments. I have experience handling small to large dogs in 15+ groups, plus administering medication and longer boarding stays. I offer OVERNIGHT care from 11pm to 11 am, and can offer additional daytime services on Mondays and Tuesdays only. If you work untraditional hours and would like peace of mind for you, and exceptional care for your loved ones, we may be a good fit! I have experience on handling dogs of various sizes, temperaments, and play styles. Everyone’s safety is very important to me and your dog’s experience is my top priority so I’ll do my best to accommodate their individual needs and likes :)

“Kelli, was great. Had a last minute meeting and she came to let me babies have a potty break. She sent pictures.”

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover who truly enjoys caring for animals and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. I grew up with a family dog, so caring for pets has always been part of my daily life. Throughout high school, I also worked at a boarding kennel where I gained hands-on experience caring for many different breeds, sizes, and personalities of dogs. During that time I helped with feeding schedules, cleaning, administering basic care, and making sure every dog got the attention and exercise they needed. Whether your dog needs walks, drop-in visits, or overnight care, my goal is to make them feel comfortable and keep their routine as normal as possible. I’m happy to follow any specific instructions you have and will always keep you updated with photos and messages so you know how your pet is doing. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I manage an Airbnb property and have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to be available throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, feedings, and plenty of attention. I provide attentive, personalized care whether pets are in my home or their own home. In both environments, I prioritize safety, communication, and consistency. I provide regular updates with photos so you can feel confident knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.

“Charlotte was very good with Drama, we also have a bird that needed looking after as well and she was very good at looking after him as well. Ruby is his name and he thoroughly enjoyed her visits. She played music and let him sit out with her and dance and get plenty of fresh fruits. Drama also enjoyed her presence as there were several videos of Drama being affectionate towards her. Definitely recommend Charlotte for your house sitting needs, she is very attentive. Even when Drama developed a bit of a sore eye she took care of her and provided us with updates daily.”

About: After a box of puppies left outside my house 15 years ago, I decided I wanted to change my career from accounting to the caring of animals. I started very small volunteering in a couple Humane Societies and followed it with my education and work to become an Elite Certified Fear Free Technician. My dedication and love for animals with an approach with the least fear, anxiety and stress is what I feel makes me succeed doing what I love. As a veterinary technician, I also offer administration of any kind of medications and treatments your pet's veterinarian prescribed. I can help you with large animals too. I an owner of 2 miniature donkeys I know how hard is to find someone to feed them. I do rodents and birds. Please, just let me know how I can help you. I am a Veterinary technician and I combine relieving nurses at different clinics, independent veterinarians, house call nurse services, boarding, grooming and pet sitting. I manage my schedule depending on my patients and clients need. Safety is my number one priority. I make sure your pets have safe boardings and walks. When board at my house, they get to be like one of my own. They can be in my couch, play with my dog Kraft and sleep with one of us in the house (if allowed by owners). When I pet sit them at their home, I try to make them feels that they are not alone, playing, socializing and giving them lots of love and patience.

I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, including energetic puppies and senior pets who need extra patience and gentle handling. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, administering basic medications, walks, playtime, and reinforcing positive behaviors. What sets me apart is my attention to detail and genuine love for animals—I treat every pet like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I am a nurse and pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I prioritize being reliable and consistent. I’m able to plan my schedule around visits, walks, and check-ins to ensure pets get the time and attention they deserve. Whether it’s early mornings, evenings, or weekends, I make sure each visit is unhurried and focused on your pet’s needs. I also communicate regularly with updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. In your home, I respect your space while maintaining your pet’s normal routine to reduce stress. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, and behavior. I stay alert on walks, avoid unsafe situations, and ensure pets are always secure.
