About: Hi, I’m Grace! I’m a responsible and trustworthy dog sitter with a genuine love for animals. I have a dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone who will care for your pet like you do. I have experience with feeding, walking, playtime, and making sure dogs feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away. I’m attentive, patient, and will give your dog plenty of love and attention! I work three days a week, so I have plenty of flexibility to care for your pets. On my days off, I’m available throughout the day for walks, playtime, and check-ins. On workdays, I’m still available before and after my shifts. I’m also available on weekends for boarding or extended care! I provide a safe, clean, and loving environment for every pet. I have a dog of my own, so I’m experienced with daily care, routines, and making pets feel comfortable. I always follow owner instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, and any special needs. I make sure pets are supervised, secure, and get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while you’re away.

Wow, I love Kassie and so does my pup. She shows concern, compassionate, and kind. I was so impressed I told her my pup drank bottled and she bought some for her. She didn't have to do that, but excellent customer service. I love how she kept me updated with photos and messages. My dog was so blessed Kassie and her daughter gave my pup so much love. Moreover she, put a little wet good on top of food. I definitely will let my pup stay with Kassie. I highly recommend her. My dog is boche like her owner and Kassie met her princess needs.

About: I've been dog sitting on and off since my 20's. Most were co-workers and family. I walked, bathed, brushed and given medicine, both orally and topical as required. I'm currently retired and can dog sit 7 days a week with advance notice. I can also day board as early as 7am and pick up as late as 6pm. If different hours are needed I can be flexible. I have a very large home where your dog can roam freely inside. However, I don't have a fenced in yard. I do have a secure tie line attached to my home. Your dog will never be left outside by themselves as I will be there with them.

Heather was the absolute best. Her communication was top notch and she took excellent care of the kitties while I had to be out of town for work. I would trust her to watch my pets any day of the week! I will definitely be rebooking with her and her family. Thank you so much Heather you gave me the peace of mind while I was away!

About: While most of my professional experience has been with dogs, I’ve lived with and cared for multiple cats over the years. I understand that every cat has their own unique personality — whether they’re playful and social or more independent and shy — and I always take the time to make them feel comfortable and safe. I’m experienced in providing daily care such as feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, and giving plenty of attention at your cat’s pace. My background working in a dog boarding and daycare facility has also helped me develop strong animal-handling skills, patience, and the ability to read pet behavior and body language. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I’ll care for your cat like they’re my own while keeping you updated so you can feel confident they’re happy and well cared for while you’re away.

Baylea has been so good with my cat, Nubi! It's been his first time with someone looking after him and she did great with him! She did so well following my instructions to feed him, giving him space and talking to him! She said he let her pet him which he doesn't allow many people to do. I was very happy to hear things went well. I will definitely be using her again!

About: I have babysat or taken care of dogs/animals ever since I was a child. To this day I will take in pets that are hurt or homeless until they are rehabilitated or find a good home. I have experience with all ages and stages of canine. Experience training dogs, nurturing them back to health, birthing, caring for seniors and special needs, bottle feeding babies, and much more. Let me know what your special needs are! I homestead and care for livestock on our farm. I have a pretty open availability. My largest chores here are completed early morning and late evening, giving me opportune time to be available during the days for checking in on, playing with and feeding, walking or housing your pup. I do not crate animals unless specified by owner. They will hang out with my family and I like they are our own if they are staying with us. I will follow and respect your rules for your pet in your homes and mine. We can work together with any special needs. I have an incredibly flexible schedule which allows me plenty of time for drop-in visits, doggie day sitting or to go on walks with your incredible pup. I will follow and abide by the rules you have in your home for pup. During our meet and greet we will go over all expectations, needs and rules for your doggie.

About: Animals have been a huge part of my life since I was young — I grew up in a family full of dogs and developed a love for caring for animals early on. Over the past four years, I’ve gained hands-on experience dog sitting pets of all sizes and personalities, from energetic puppies to senior dogs, as well as cats and even chickens! For the past year, I’ve also worked at a dog boarding and daycare facility, where I’ve learned how to safely handle dogs with a wide range of temperaments, energy levels, and needs. This experience has made me confident in reading animal behavior, creating a calm environment, and making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while in my care. I treat every pet like family and understand how important it is to know your furry friend is in caring, reliable hands. Whether your pet loves playtime, cuddles, walks, or just a calm companion, I’m happy to provide personalized care that fits their needs! Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I currently work part-time in the evenings, which gives me daytime availability to care for pets, provide walks, drop-in visits, and spend quality time with them throughout the week. I’m hoping to dedicate most weekdays to pet care and make sure each pet gets plenty of attention, patience, and reliable care while their owners are away. At this time, I’m generally unavailable on weekends due to family obligations, but during the week I’m flexible and committed to providing dependable, loving care for your pets. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always make it my priority to keep their routine as comfortable and stress-free as possible. During drop-in visits, I can provide feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, litter box cleaning, playtime, attention, and plenty of love and companionship. For dog walks, I make sure each dog gets safe, attentive exercise based on their energy level and needs. I understand how important pets are to their families, so I treat every animal with patience, kindness, and the same level of care I would want for my own pets. I also believe communication is important, so I’m happy to provide updates and photos while you’re away so you can feel confident your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.

About: I like dogs more than I like people. Lol. I’ve had dogs in my life since I was born and I adopted my own fur babies. :) I am available most days and can be available for overnights. I am sure that I can make it work! I go out of my way to make sure that all animals are safe and happy. If you have other animals in the house that need to be taken care of I would be more than happy to give them all the lovings as well. I am flexible and open for anything, all you have to do is ask. I hope that I have the opportunity to meet your perfect doggies and kitties in the near future! Pet care is something I am available for all summer and part time in the fall, winter, and spring. I love caring for animals no matter whose they are. I have a fenced yard and 2 friendly dogs that will keep your fur babies company while you are away. I can easily crate your dog or take them on a walk if needed. I currently have a coaching job and stay home with my kids in the mornings so I am pretty flexible. Otherwise, I constantly take care of my own fur babies at home too. I make sure the pets feel safe by moving slowly and giving lots of pets if that’s what they enjoy. I also will keep your house tidy during my stay!

About: We have had the pleasure of owning a small business called "Pet-Inn" and boarded many dogs! Me and my mom took care of others dogs for quite some time and really enjoyed it. This experience helped me become passionate about entrepreneurship as well as working towards a compassionate connection with your pets! I currently have a part-time small business I'm running apart from being a "SAHM" so I will have plenty of time to get to know your beloved pet and get to know them so I can take care of them in the best way I know possible! I have some free time in my schedule, so finding a slot during the week to care for your pet works well for us. I have a now 6-year-old who adores small dogs, cats, and other animals! I am well aware of the responsibilities of pet care, but I want to emphasize that your pet's safety is my top priority.
