About: I care for every pet as if they were my own—whether they have paws, claws, fins, or feathers! With years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and small animals, I understand that every pet has its own unique personality and needs. I’m skilled in administering medications, supporting senior pets, helping with training routines, and creating calm, loving environments for shy or anxious animals. My goal is to make each pet feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away! I work full-time during the week but make pet care a big part of my daily life. Before and after work, I dedicate time for walks, play, feeding, and cuddles. Evenings and weekends are when I’m fully available for drop-in visits or extended care. Caring for pets is my favorite way to unwind—it brings joy and balance to my week! Whether it’s a quick check-in, a relaxing walk, or some playtime, your pets always get my full attention and love. I care for pets right in their own home, where they feel safest and happiest. By keeping their familiar routines—feeding times, walks, play, and cuddles—I help reduce stress and keep them comfortable while you’re away. I always respect your home and your pet’s space, making sure doors are locked, gates are secure, and everything stays clean and tidy. I treat every home with care and every pet like family—safe, loved, and right where they belong. 🐾💛

About: I have had pets and cared for animals for 15+ years. Have my own pet that travels with me almost every where I go. House is pet safe. I farm and work in rentals. During the winter I have more time care for pets. I work in my office out of my own house during the winter I have my own pet, a small Australian Shepard. She is house broke. At my own home I take pets out by leash as I don’t have a fenced in yard yet. Looking to make money by boarding to fence in back yard for better service.

About: Hello! I’m Veta, a reliable and experienced pet sitter dedicated to providing high-quality, loving care for dogs (and other pets) in the comfort of their own home. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with both your pets and your home. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities — from energetic puppies to senior companions who need a little extra patience. My goal is always to maintain your dog’s normal routine, keep them happy and stress-free, and give you total peace of mind while you’re away. I pride myself on clear communication, punctuality, and attention to detail. I send regular photo and message updates so you can relax knowing your dog is well cared for. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or cuddles on the couch, I treat every dog as if they were my own. I’m also respectful and responsible in clients’ homes, ensuring everything is kept tidy and secure. Your dog’s comfort and safety — and your trust — are my top priorities. I’d love the opportunity to care for your pet and provide dependable, compassionate service you can count on. Thank you for considering me as your sitter! Warm regards, Veta I do have a job but i will always make the time for your fur babies! I want them to always feel secure and happy while they are under my care! I am always willing to have open availability upon your request! If i am in your home, I will always give it the same respect that i give my home but ten times more! It's the animals home too, so i always make sure they are comfortable first.

About: While I haven’t officially cat sat before, I’ve spent plenty of time around cats and am very comfortable caring for them. I’ve always loved animals, and I’ve gotten to know and spend time with my neighborhood cat, which has helped me learn more about cat behavior, personalities, and how they communicate. I understand that cats often have their own routines and preferences, and I know the importance of being patient, gentle, and respectful of their space. I’m reliable, attentive, and committed to following your cat’s care instructions closely, whether that includes feeding, refreshing water, cleaning the litter box, playtime, or simply providing companionship. I genuinely enjoy being around cats and would treat your pet with the same care and attention I would give my own.

About: I have more than 10 years experience working with animals/ aside from my personal life which revolves around my (4) fur babies. I formerly worked as the primary animal caretaker for Aurora Adopt A Pet. I did that for almost 2 years. most recently, I was kennel manager and daycare operations at my local boarding facility for 3 years. For as long as i can remember, my life both inside and outside of work has revolved around animals. To say it's my life, is an understatement. In May of 2026, I will be opening my own doggy daycare facility here in Aurora. I treat every animal the way I treat my own. They are not just pets, but members of the family. To gain the trust and love of so many animals in my life, is a true blessing.

About: I have spent my entire life around pets, and I am an animal lover. I love taking care of dogs, whether it's walking, combing, playing, or just spending time with them. I am out of college for the summer, so most days are very open. The first thing I do each morning is feed my dog and take her out. She gets plenty of attention throughout the day, and I take her out every hour or two. I also take her for long daily walks as long as the weather and my schedule permit. I have a gated patio, and my dog goes outside on a leash. I have an almost two-year-old Golden Retriever who loves to play with other dogs. I like to take dogs on long walks through neighborhoods and along paths.

About: I have raised birds since I was 12 years old. From parakeets and cockatiels to now a lovebird, birds are my absolute favorite and I’m lucky to know and love them! I have been a life long dog lover and have always had dogs since I was little. I have experience with several families providing dog sitting services in the place where their beloved pet is most comfortable, their home! I have many years of experience with overnight and long term stays. I love being able to provide comfort to you by being a safe person for your pet to spend time with while you are away! I have experience with tiny Pomeranians all the way up to 90Lb bernadoodles! I am open to any size and breed of dog. I also have experience with puppies and elderly dogs that just need someone to sit and relax with, in the comfort of their home! I am available anytime day or night on weekends to provide care for your pets. During the week, I work from 8am to 5pm, but I am able to spend mornings and evenings with your pets. I do have a break mid day that I am able to provide company to your pet. I have no other commitments on the weekends, so your pets care will be my top priority! During the week, I am able to be at your house whenever I am not at work. I will go early mornings and stay late into the evenings or overnight to provide your beloved pet with companionship and safety while you are away.

About: I’ve loved animals my entire life and have experience caring for a variety of pets, including dogs, cats and geckos. I attended animal camps through the Humane Society, which helped me learn more about animal behavior, care, and safety. In addition to caring for my own pets, I’ve dog sat for multiple families and am comfortable with dogs of different sizes, breeds, and personalities. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I take the time to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away. Whether that’s going on walks, sticking to a feeding schedule, playing, providing companionship, or simply giving extra attention and cuddles, I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. My goal is to provide dependable care and give pet owners peace of mind knowing their pets are in good hands. Pet care is an important part of my routine, and I make time for it around my college classes and sports schedule. I keep an organized calendar so I can provide dependable, consistent care, whether that’s walks, drop-in visits, or overnight stays. When I’m caring for a pet, I prioritize their needs and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while following their normal routine as closely as possible. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their familiar environment. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any special instructions provided by the owner. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality and comfort level, whether they are energetic and playful or more shy and reserved. I always make sure pets have fresh water, plenty of attention, and a clean environment. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are happy and well cared for while they’re away. As someone who has grown up with animals and has experience dog sitting, I understand the importance of trust, reliability, and treating every pet like my own.
