“Melissa is amazing. My puppy has been skittish ever since I got her from the shelter and she gets nervous around people and other dogs but she warmed up quickly to Melissa. Melissa is super sweet and dogs know that. My puppy Wednesday loves playing with her cute dogs she has. I love all the updates I get and love how patient Melissa is. Melissa is awesome because I had to book a last minute booking and she was able to take my puppy in. If I could give 10 stars I for sure would. Thank you so much Melissa ❤️❤️”

About: Hello, my name is Riley and I’ve been taking care of animals since a very young age. Since I was 6 years old I’ve been taking care of dogs and fish. Over my entire lifetime so far I’ve raised 7 dogs and helped take care of dozens more. I used to pet sit for someone who had 4 dogs and a cat I was a frequent pet sitter for her and was recommended to many more of her family. I’ve also taken care of livestock animals such as chickens, goats, and horses. I’ve raised 6 dozen chickens for a family member from the age of 9 years old. I've also helped care for the same family member’s 5 horses. In high school I was an FFA student for 4 years, a farmhand for that school specializing in goats and sheep for 2.5 years, and even took care of two of my own goats. I have worked with so many animals with so many needs and personalities so I have a plethora of experience outside of just species/breeds. I’ve dealt with animals who are young and hyper, old and mellow, anxious and wary, and such. I’ve helped dogs who were wary of people become great with others. I know how important it is to cater towards your animal’s personality and needs so they feel safe and loved around you. I have a very open schedule at the moment. I’m available for short notice appointments, any day, anytime, and anywhere. I’m also very flexible as well. I will make sure your pet stays out of where they shouldn’t be, make sure they’re supervised inside and outside, and I will make sure your pet stays out of danger. If there is any special needs or requirements such as a high energy dog needing playtime to avoid being destructive I’ll make sure your pup gets the playtime they need or if your animals need to be separated I’ll make sure to keep them apart. I’ll even make sure your animal gets the medication that they need. The animal’s safety and wellbeing is my #1 priority because I understand how important it is for owners and pet parents for their furry loved ones to be happy and well taken care of.
About: I’ve had cats and have been taking care of cats for years. The cat i have right now was a stray I found in a bush. I brought her home and have been taking care of her ever since. I’ll take her out to the park sometimes and she seems to enjoy it. Family and friends call me “The cat whisperer” because stray cats let me walk up and pet them and a lot of the time, pick them up. I’d say I have very good experience with cats.
About: I've grown up living around and taking care of animals since I turned 5. Dealing with Pitbulls, Chihuahua's, and so on. I've also been around plenty of cats in my life to know how to take care of them. (Just minus hairless cats, never been around them before.) I'm very patient when it comes to pets, knowing that it's usually best to let them come to you. I also know how to give pets any medications they may need. Just not injections. I've got college classes on Monday's-Thurdays, and I will list the times each class. But after December 18th my time is mostly open during the week. When caring for pets in clients homes, I will keep my eyes on them. Making sure they're taken out when needed for potty breaks and walks, play time, feeding when necessary and being sure their toy's are cleaned up.
“Tony did a great job with our dog and we would absolutely book with him again. He was very kind, clearly loves animals, and made us feel really comfortable leaving our dog in his care. Communication was excellent and he was quick to respond and kept us updated, which we really appreciated. He also left our place well taken care of. Overall, we had a really positive experience and we’d highly recommend Tony to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”
About: I’ve always had a cat grownup weather its job was to keep me company or to keep the rats from coming in the house. I love how cats are so quiet but aware at the same time. This picture is of my cat KitKat, I named him myself as a kid. Enjoy his pure bliss while playing in some catnip😭
About: Hi! I'm Aileen, a 20-year-old who's always had a special place in my heart for all animals. Growing up, I was the go to pet sitter in my neighborhood, and I've spent many hours caring for and bonding with both. I've volunteered at animal shelters, where I helped with feeding, socializing, and walking the dogs, and I've fostered a few kittens, too. I don’t have any cats of my own simply because id feel bad leaving them home while i work/go to school, but i feed the strays outside my house daily. I'd like to think that i'm a calm and gentle person, friendly but a little reserved, so I tend to connect really well with animals. I truly believe every animal deserves love, patience, and a safe space, and I love being part of that care.
About: I haven't done pet sitting for anyone except family and friends BUT I know that all animals deserve 24/7 attention and TLC. I have 6 dogs from small to large here with me and I treat them as if they were my own babies and I will treat your loving pet like I would do my own. I am home 24/7 now do to some issues but that only leaves me open to come and help take care of your pet when needed. I am single and no kids so I am able and open any time day or night. I love all kinds of animals (except bugs lol) I have taken care of fish, tortoise, dogs, cats, bearded dragon. I care for my pets with lots of love and attention. If for some reason I need to bring your pet home he/she/it will be well looked after and will have pet friendly dogs to play with and I also have crates for safety and fenced yard as well with 1acre of land to play in.

“Alexis was an absolutely amazing caretaker I would 100% book with her again and probably will do so in the near future. The amount of care, dedication and attention left me feeling so relieved that my two pups were in great hands even if one of my pups was a bit skittish and had boundaries with strangers it was clear he was able to relax in her home. She took plenty of pictures and her notes were so detailed I felt completely sure that they were having a great time. They had plenty of long walk’s, enrichment activities and made sure they were fed well and full. Its clear she has a great skill set that allows her to understand dog behavior exceptionally that makes her perfect for taking care of your pups, I was able to learn even more about my pups during their stay with Alexis. Cant recommend enough!”

About: I’ve taken care of both dogs and cats for 7 years. I am a proud owner of a dog and cat of my own. I have raised them since a puppy and kitten. I have stayed overnight at family and friend’s homes to care for their animals. I am currently a teacher for kids on the spectrum at my college. I am able to work all weekend and am very flexible with my schedule. I care for my dog in a specious apartment with an enclosed animal area. He is incredibly friendly with both people and animals. I can adapt to any service or accommodation needed.
About: I have taken care of cats and dogs, small and large ever since I was a kid. I am very trusted amongst family members when they need advice on their pets whether they are feeling okay or what they enjoy. I have watched over cats and dogs to either take them out to the bathroom, clean their puppy pads or change their litter. I can provide meals and bathroom breaks in a timely manner in order to satisfy furry friends! I know a lot about pets because of how much time I’ve spent over the years researching and learning pet behavior on what comforts or can discomfort them. I take pride in being a responsible pet owner/ caregiver because I know furry friends need just as much care as a child too! I’m currently in a college student looking for another fun job. I currently work a part time, so my schedule is often switched and random so I wouldn’t say that I can set a specific schedule for pet caregiving days but I do get my schedule 2 weeks in advance so I am always open to arrange meetings/ appointments those days! I clean up after every mess they make. I make sure to keep a steady schedule for meals. I make sure to brush and clean them as needed. And I always make sure they’re comfortable whether it be to play or relax.

I've also been around plenty of cats in my life to know how to take care of them. (Just minus hairless cats, never been around them before.) I'm very patient when it comes to pets, knowing that it's usually best to let them come to you. I also know how to give pets any medications they may need. Just not injections. I've got college classes on Monday's-Thurdays, and I will list the times each class. But after December 18th my time is mostly open during the week. When caring for pets in clients homes, I will keep my eyes on them. Making sure they're taken out when needed for potty breaks and walks, play time, feeding when necessary and being sure their toy's are cleaned up.

I work part time with kids at a school but i’m open most of the week. Fitting time for your pets shouldn’t be a problem. I’m very flexible because I don’t have a hard schedule right now. I have a fenced backyard and some pet toys to keep your pet happy. I have a cat too your pet can meet and keep entertained but I won’t make them without your permission. I’ve had family’s dogs and cats over and my cat was always friendly. Curious and scared for a bit, but friendly once she got used to them.
About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 11, helping my mom foster and pet sit for friends, family, and neighbors. Over the past 8 years, I’ve become the go-to sitter for walks, feedings, playtime, and lots of tail wags! What really sets me apart is my hands-on experience. Not just in homes, but also in a veterinary clinic, where I volunteered while my mom worked there. That gave me firsthand knowledge of how to care for pets of all ages and needs-from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing extra TLC. I’m confident, calm, and comfortable handling all sorts of dogs, and I treat every pet like family. Whether it's a simple walk or more involved care, I’m always up for the job! I attend college but I do online. As of right now, I solely work in pet care and child care. So I make my own schedule and can provide quality care to you pet. I care for your pets like they’re my own. With love, patience, and lots of attention to detail. I understand that some pets may feel uneasy when their family leaves or a new person enters their space, and I always approach them with calm energy and respect to help them feel safe and secure. My top priority is to follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible like meals, walks, playtime, and snuggles, so they feel comfortable and cared for in your absence. I also make sure your home stays clean and well-maintained during my stay. I clean up after your pet (and myself!), keep things tidy, and always leave your home as clean-or cleaner-than I found it. That means vacuuming up fur, wiping down surfaces, and respecting your space as if it were my own. Your pet’s well-being and your peace of mind matter to me, and I take pride in providing both.
About: Hi! I'm Aileen, a 20-year-old who's always had a special place in my heart for all animals. Growing up, I was the go to pet sitter in my neighborhood, and I've spent many hours caring for and bonding with both. I've volunteered at animal shelters, where I helped with feeding, socializing, and walking the dogs, and I've fostered a few kittens, too. I'd like to think that i'm a calm and gentle person, friendly but a little reserved, so I tend to connect really well with animals. I truly believe every animal deserves love, patience, and a safe space, and I love being part of that care. I’m currently working part time at a daycare, and going to school full time as well. Depending on my work schedule, i’m available most days after 1 pm. Whenever taking care of any animal, I make sure to keep my attention on the animal as if they were a child. I make sure to follow any requests provided by the pet owner to ensure the best service possible.

April was confident that winnie would fit right in and she would be able to handle her behaviors.
