“Charlotte is the absolute best pet sitter. She was wonderful with our Irish Terrier, Darcy. She took her to the dog park multiple times and sent us texts and pictures to keep us updated which was wonderful. We would absolutely recommend her to watch anyone's fur babies. ❤ ? ❤?”

“We “emergency adopted” a cat a few days before going on a trip and needed to find a pet sitter quick. Enter Lauren, a literal angel in the form of a cat sitter. Not only was she super professional and friendly, she also kept extra watch over our cat when the lil man decided to eat something he wasn’t supposed to. Her expertise as a vet tech makes her an excellent pick for new pet parents, and we totally would recommend her to anyone!”

About: I’ve helped someone with a dog sitting business for the past two years and liked it so much that I decided do it in my home as well. I have three cats and three dogs of my own. I love getting to meet other people’s pets and helping them. My availability varies week to week depending on if I need to travel for work. If I’m at home then I typically do morning walks along with midday potty breaks and then another walk in the evening. I do not have a fenced in yard so I will walk the dogs on leashes for exercise. I can offer a crate, pen, or a private room depending on the necessities of each pet. I have pets of my own but will keep the animals separated if necessary.

About: What sets me apart as a cat sitter is my patience, calm personality, and understanding that cats need trust, comfort, and consistency to feel safe. I respect each cat’s unique personality — whether they’re playful and social, shy and cautious, independent, elderly, or anxious when their owner is away. I pay close attention to routines, behavior changes, eating habits, litter box habits, and overall comfort to help cats stay relaxed and stress-free in their familiar environment. I know that even small changes in behavior can matter, so I’m very observant and attentive. I also have experience with: Senior cat care and gentle handling Kittens and younger cats needing extra supervision and play Shy, anxious, or slow-to-warm-up cats Feeding schedules and medication reminders Interactive playtime and enrichment Maintaining clean litter boxes and tidy living spaces Providing regular photo/video updates for peace of mind What truly makes me different is that I don’t just “check in” on pets — I focus on building trust and making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. I’m dependable, communicative, compassionate, and committed to treating every cat like family.

About: Grew up raising cows, pigs and chickens in the country, I have an ease with animals. I recently worked at a doggie daycare for about a year. Loved it so much, I decide to provide my own services to local dog owners nearby. My approach with dogs is laidback, but assertive. Encouraging good behavior with quiet praise and long walks. Unwanted behavior is curtailed as much as possible with distractions, and various modes of play that involves mental stimulation. I'm comfortable with dogs of all sizes and ages. I work from home and set my own hours, so I can give your dog child my undivided attention. I’ll usually work while they nap. A typical day with me and your dog(s) is a loop of walking/running, food, nap, games maybe a little training another walk, food and more sleep.

About: I've been an exotics/small animal vet tech for 5+ years. I have plenty experience in administering medication. My passion is animals, caring for them at home and at work. Understanding your pets' needs is my top priority. I'm currently working full-time, but my schedule is very flexible, giving me plenty of time to care and play with your pets at any point. I have a half-fenced in yard, for potty breaks and play time, which I am always present for. I have 1 dog, 1 foster cat, and 2 chinchillas to accompany your fur babies in any activities.
About: What sets me apart is the level of genuine care, patience, and attention I give every pet as if they were my own. I understand that every animal has a different personality, comfort level, routine, and emotional need, so I focus on creating a calm, safe, loving environment where pets feel secure while their owners are away. I’m especially good with anxious, shy, high-energy, and routine-oriented pets because I’m very observant, patient, and consistent. I pay close attention to behavior changes, body language, eating habits, medication schedules, and overall comfort to make sure pets stay happy and stress-free. I also have experience with: Senior pet care and slower-paced walks Puppies and younger pets who need patience, structure, and consistency Maintaining feeding schedules and routines Providing companionship, playtime, and emotional comfort Keeping homes clean, organized, and safe during stays Giving regular photo/video updates so owners feel reassured People describe me as dependable, calm under pressure, trustworthy, and easy to communicate with. I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone who is not only responsible, but genuinely caring and attentive. My goal is always to make both pets and owners feel comfortable, safe, and confident. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I have a very open and flexible schedule. I’m available throughout the day and week for walks, drop-ins, boarding, feeding schedules, playtime, companionship, and overnight care when needed. Since I’m home often, pets receive plenty of attention, supervision, consistency, and care rather than being left alone for long periods. I enjoy creating a calm, comfortable environment where pets can feel safe, relaxed, and part of the household routine. I’m also dependable with maintaining routines such as feeding times, potty breaks, exercise, medications, and regular updates for owners. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so I make sure each pet gets individualized attention, patience, affection, and proper care based on their needs and personality. I provide a calm, safe, and structured environment where pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, supervision, and affection. Since I live on a farm with open space and a peaceful setting, pets have room to enjoy fresh air, walks, playtime, and a lower-stress environment while still being safely supervised at all times. In my home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable by maintaining their normal routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, medications, rest time, and any special instructions from the owner. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality, energy level, and comfort needs so they feel secure and cared for while away from home. For walks and activity, I adjust based on the pet’s age, health, and temperament — whether that means active play for energetic dogs, slower walks for senior pets, or extra patience with anxious animals. Safety is always my top priority. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect both the pet’s routine and the owner’s space. I make sure pets receive reliable care, companionship, exercise, fresh food and water, clean-up, and lots of attention while helping maintain a calm, clean environment. I also provide regular photo and video updates so owners can feel reassured while they’re away. What’s most important to me is making pets feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for no matter where they are.
