“Great service. Well educated on Guinea pigs. Several good photos with each visit. All instructions followed. No one I would trust more with my piggies. Very sweet note left on the last day. Stellar.”

“It's been so hot so I can't take my dog with me everywhere I go. Kat kindly accepted my last minute request for a drop-in visit to give my dog a pee break. My shy dog took to Kat right away. Thank you for your help!”

About: I began volunteering at my city's animal shelter at the age of thirteen, dog walking, and I quickly began taking on more responsibilities at the shelter from there. By the time I was fifteen, I was volunteering in vet services, helping with adoption events, and doing critter care, where I socialized and took care of small animals like rabbits, rats, guinea pigs, and mice. During my time as a volunteer, I began a veterinary assisting program. I spent five days a week providing care to dogs, cats, horses, and rodents while learning proper medical procedures. Within that care, I attentively followed tailored feeding and kenneling instructions meant to keep the animals safe and healthy. Through my time at my tech school, I gained my OSHA 10 healthcare-focused certification, my HIV, Bloodborne Pathogen certification, and I graduated with my veterinary assisting certification. After graduating, I began working at my city's animal shelter as a Student Day Laborer and Veterinary Assistant, as well as pet sitting for people living in and around my city. At the animal shelter, I handled dogs with various behavioral challenges, including nipping, jumping, barking, pulling, lunging, and multiple kinds of reactivity. I maintained a clean and tidy environment by cleaning up many kinds of bodily fluids and parasites to ensure the comfort and health of the animals. During my time there, I fostered several dogs from the euthanasia list to provide them with proper enrichment and training to make them less frustrated and more adoptable. I have experience providing medical care and enrichment to puppies as young as three weeks old and senior dogs. I am a college student, but I am currently on summer break, so I am available every day except for Thursdays and Fridays. I am very flexible with my schedule when it comes to work and am willing to work with people on timing. I am capable of providing medical care and following specific feeding instructions that have been provided to me by the owner. I provide appropriate enrichment and exercise for different age ranges and breeds.

“Virginia was my first Rover sitter, and I was very pleased with her service. I don't go away very often for just a dew days. Usually, I'm gone for a couple weeks at a time and find live-in sitters through Trusted Housesitters. My two cats are indoor outdoor, and that complicates their care. For my three day leave, my neighbor came over in the morning to put down their morning kibble and let the cats outside. Virginia came over in the late afternoon on her way to pick up her kids from school. She would call them inside for the night and put down their wet food. I wasn't sure it would work since they don't always come inside when I call them in the evening. Virginia sent me pictures each day of the cats inside during her 30 minute visit, so I was reassured. I will definitely look for Virginia again if I need to be gone for a few days.”

“I needed a sitter for my old French bulldog last minute. Katrina was so nice and willing even when I had to make changes and give probably too many notes about the requirements of caring for my dog. 😅 Definitely recommend her! I felt taken care of when Katrina watched my Frenchie. My Frenchie loved her too!”

About: I have over 300 volunteer hours with NOAH Center as a dog walker, cat kennel tech, and foster parent. I grew up with 5 dogs (2 Whippets, 2 Chihuahuas, 1 Boston Terrier) and 2 cats. I ride horses in my free time so there is no dog too big for me! I am currently in between jobs and out of school for the summer so my schedule is wide open for pet sitting and dog walking! My first jobs have been dog sitting at other homes, which I believe is the ideal situation as the animals are always most comfortable in a familiar space. I love to take dogs on frequent walks and breaks outside, they are easiest to manage when tuckered out.

“Kricella was awesome!! Met us the day before so our dogs could get to know her which was totally awesome and necessary. She was super kind and experienced and I know our dogs were well looked after while we were gone for the day!”

“Chelsey was great- helped us out last minute and we felt totally secure with our pups in her care. Thanks so much!!!”

“Isabella did a great job checking in on our two dogs. She instantly connected with them, and was very responsive sending photos and videos. I highly recommend her!”

About: I've had pets, both dogs and cats my whole life. They are like family members and I'll treat yours the same. Thank you for looking. I work from home most days of the week and when I occasionally leave for errands I am typically back in under an hour. I have plenty of small beds in my office for everyone. I have a neatly landscaped, fenced, back yard for exercise. We only board small dogs from a single home at once. Our dog and cat have a vote on who gets to hang our with us though.

About: I’ve always been surrounded by pets, as my father is a veterinarian. I grew up with dogs and cats, but have been around pets ranging from lizards to quails. I’m a bigger guy who can handle stronger animals if needed. I am currently on break from university and have lots of time on my hands! I am available to take care of animals everyday for the summer months, up until mid September. I cannot bring animals over to my apartment, as it is small and I share it with others. I am however happy to stay and take care of any pets that might need more consistent care. I am happy to do overnights or just visits, and have a car that I can use to take any pets anywhere they might need or want to go.

About: I've had many family pets growing up. But, now that I'm the sole caretaker of my own pet, I have a deeper understanding of what goes in to pet care. So, I'm open to help take care of other pets as well! I want to make this my main job so, I have plenty of flexibility. Therefore, I'll be able to easily work around the clock and take care of pets. Since this is my main job, I can spend lots of quality time with your furry buds to make sure that they are comfortable while you're away. So, worry not!

“Violet is very sweet and did a great job caring for Kellen while I was away. She communicated well with me on every drop in and sent photos. I will definitely utilize her again.”

With a calm and grounded approach, I create a peaceful, safe environment while respecting each pet’s unique needs, routine, and personality. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, play, or companionship, I would love to meet your pet! My schedule is currently very flexible. I’m available to offer thoughtful, individualized pet and house sitting. I genuinely enjoy keeping cats company, walking dogs, watering plants, or just making sure everything feels cared for while you’re away. I’m open to daytime and overnight visits. I take the time to learn each pet’s unique routine, needs, and personality. I strive for you and your pet to feel at ease while you’re away. I like to prepare for visits by learning what’s important to you and your pet, what you need from me, and what your pet might need in your absence. I care about cleanliness and do my best to ensure that your space is tidy for your return.

“Wonderful!”

About: I’ve been pet sitting for years and have experience with a wide range of animals, including German Shepherds, small dogs, cats, fish, bunnies, chickens, and more. I specialize in dog sitting and am especially comfortable with large breeds. I treat every pet like my own and always make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s playtime, walks, feeding, or just some good company, I’m here to help. You can count on me to be reliable, attentive, and respectful of your home and your pets’ needs. My own family dog is actually a trained service guide dog! work seasonally at a marina and as a lifeguard at a local pool, which gives me a lot of flexibility in my daily schedule. Most of my shifts are split or part-time, leaving plenty of time for pet sitting in between. I’m often up early and free in the afternoons or evenings, depending on the day. My jobs keep me active and on a routine, which makes it easy to stay consistent with feeding times, walks, and check-ins. I plan ahead to make sure your pets always get the attention and care they need. Safety and responsibility are my top priorities when it comes to pet care. I’m CPR and AED certified, and while that training is geared toward people, it reflects my commitment to being prepared and calm in any situation. I always follow pet care instructions closely and make sure routines are consistent, so pets feel secure and comfortable. You can count on me to keep a close eye on your pets and your home, treating both with care and respect. Whether it’s a simple walk or a full day of care, I take the job seriously and always put your pet’s well-being first.

About: I grew up with dogs and as an adult I have been entrusted with the care of pets of friends and family. I adore cats! I work part time in the field of retail so my schedule always changes from week to week but as long as I have enough notice I can accommodate a pet. The back yard is fenced however the front yard is not. As long as you let me know what your pet needs to be comfortable I can do that!
