“Eliza has been absolutely wonderful with my dog. She has watched my dog multiple times and has had her over for playtime with her own dogs. Eliza genuinely loves animals, and my dog is always excited to see her. She is reliable, caring, and communicates well, which gives me complete peace of mind whenever my dog is with her. I always know my dog is getting plenty of attention, exercise, and affection in a safe environment. I highly recommend Eliza to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog sitter. I’m so grateful to have found her!”
“Our dog had an unexpected medical issue right before we left town and required medication and a cone while we were gone. Nate was communicative and sent me a photo every day. Our guy was healthy and seemed happy when we got home.”
“Jen was an awesome sitter for our sweet Golden, Captain. She was welcoming and kind from the start and I could tell how much she loves her Labs and felt a kinship that Captain would be welcomed into the retriever pack! Although I was nervous because he hasn’t really been around kitties, he ended up doing fine and Jen assured me he adjusted well and she sent great updates and photos while we were away! I highly recommend Jen!”
“Avram took the best care of our dog. This is the first time we’ve left him with someone outside of his immediate “circle” and Avram was a calm, reliable source of care for both our dog and us. We received daily updates and pictures as well as prompt communication regarding drop off and pickup. We would definitely have Avram care for our dog again!”
About: I've been an animal lover my whole life and have always had at least one dog or cat in our home, as well as others often like fish and reptiles. I even lived and worked on a goat farm for a while and milked and cared for the goats. I'm an avid hiker and am happy to walk your dog for any length preferred on trail or road. In my other work I have over 15 years of experience as a healer (massage therapy and energy work) and meditation/yoga instructor and bring the calm this field has taught me to pet care. I'm used to hearing pet people tell me that their pets are so calm around me. I seek to form a connection based on trust and understanding with your pet. I am, without a doubt, a cat lady having had cats in my life since the age of 5. I currently have a sweet and sensitive Calico, who has lived with me for the past 11 years. She is a finicky eater and often deals with digestive issues, so I've had plenty of experience with various food regimes and giving supplements. We also have a sweet, playful, young male cat in our home (my daughter's cat) and a beloved bearded dragon. We recently welcomed a Shiba Inu into our family and she is such a joy in our home. I offer pet care as a side gig to my other work and love any opportunity to connect with your furry friends and other pets. I offer pet care part-time in addition to other work I do. I'm happy to walk dogs most weekdays/weekends between 8 am-3 pm and I can do pet check-in's most weekdays and some weekends and holidays with a few days notice. I am sometimes available for overnight pet stays in your home with ample prior notice. When coming to your home, I follow what usual routines you share with me for your pet and treat your home with utmost respect and care. If you have a preferred route to take your dog on a walk or favorite dog park, I'm happy to go with whatever your norm is and will make your dog most comfortable.
“Linda was FANTASTIC! My wife and I am very protective of our French Bulldog, Penny. We rarely leave her alone and never for 9 days. But we had a vacation cruise booked and had to find a sitter for Penny. We were both very nervous leaving her anywhere for so long. But Linda put us to ease after meeting her and touring her home. She has a large backyard and I personally walked the perimeter (twice!) carefully looking for any holes or places a small dog could weasel out. It's secure! One thing we really appreciated was that Linda works from home and was with Penny the entire time. We got updates and pictures daily and that helped us relax and enjoy our vacation. Penny got lots of love and attention and care. Most important to us, she was safe. Thank you Linda! We will be back.”
“Kristen and Estevan were INCREDIBLE! They took such good care of Winnie and sent so many amazing pictures and updates. I felt so comfortable leaving her here and I feel so happy to have found someone to watch my girl whenever I’m traveling. That peace of mind was priceless 🤍”
“Absolutely amazing experience with Anyssah! She kept me informed at all time and assured me he was doing well as this was my first time leaving him with someone he didn’t know. She also accommodated to his needs and just made this stay so much easier for us to go through. I will absolutely book her again if needed. Thank you Anyssah!”
“It's kind of a big deal to leave your pet with a stranger. I am so happy to report that I now have a trusted person to give love to my dog when I have to go away for work. Anika took care of my golden retriever, Baron, over the weekend while I was out of town. Baron and I met her before our trip and I could tell that my dog was immediately at ease in her home. The house is very clean and cute and Anika and her family are warm and welcoming. There is a fenced in front yard with grass for Baron to play and get some exercise. I missed my pup so Anika even texted pictures over the weekend when she took him for walks. I will happily use Anika again the next time I need day or night care for Baron! Definitely recommend.”
“Alicia was fantastic. She was very welcoming and took great care of Mochi and Waffles. They had fun playing with her dog, Zuko too. Will definitely ask her to take care of Mochi and Waffles in the future.”
“I had never boarded my older dog before and was anxious about the whole situation, but Julianne & Ragen made the whole process start to finish so much more comfortable than I had expected! Being able to communicate before, during and after our vacation really helped me to feel confident that our sweet Kiwi was happy, healthy and well taken care of. We will definitely reach out to Julianne & Ragen next time we need a friend for our sweet girl!”
“Easy 5 stars. Abigail was awesome! Great to work with, great with my pup. I needed to pop up north for the weekend and am so thankful I found her. Ranger had a blast being watched. He was played with and cared for really well. I recommend Abigail to anyone in the area who needs a trustworthy dog sitter.”
About: As you consider if you want to trust your “fur-baby” to us, you should know that my wife Kathy and I have been involved with dogs for more than 40 years. We give cuddles and pets as needed and encourage our dogs to be friendly to all that visit. Our first dog and the subsequent 6 dogs we have kept as family members were all rescue dogs. We have experience with Border Collies, Corgis, Mixed Breeds, German Wired-Haired Pointer and American Brittany dogs. We have been active in the American Brittany Rescue organization since 2011 having placed more than 16 dogs in forever homes including 4 Brittanys that we have kept for our family. While we have crate-trained our dogs when they first came to our home, typically once they show that they can use the doggie door to go outside, we have given them free roam of the house and yard except for bedrooms. We keep the crate available when a dog wants to isolate themselves or they need a timeout. We are happy to give quiet time to the dogs in the middle of the afternoon especially after a snack and/or a walk. Our home has a doggie door that can accommodate a large dog and that gives the dogs freedom to go outside on their own. Finally, we have boarded and watched over our children’s dogs for many years when we lived in CA. We would be happy to board and walk your dog and give you the peace of mind that we have enough experience and temperament to insure your dog has a good time at our house. My wife and I are home full time as we are both retired. While we enjoy our walks and our gym time, we have plenty of time to watch over and play with your dog. We have a fenced yard and 2 friendly dogs (age 7 & 10) to keep your fur baby company. We can crate your dog if needed and would prefer that your dog be able to take themselves into the yard to go potty once they learn to use the doggie door.
“Denise & her husband were wonderful with Henry. They gave him lots of love and snuggles, and I could tell when we picked him up that he had been well cared for. Denise will always be our first pick for our boarding needs!”

About: Over the past 4 years, I have lived in an apartment with at least 1 cat. My last place had 2 cats, and I would care for them while my roommate was away. I have one of my own now and have learned all there is to know caring for her. I can feed them, clean the litter box, clip nails, brush their fur, and respect their boundaries.
“Aiyana immediately connected with my two cats and sent lovely pictures each visit. They clearly welcomed her attention, liked playing with toys with her, and would no doubt like to see her again after they chide me for going on a trip! I would definitely book with her again.”
About: I adore cats and think the Egyptians may have had it at least partially right to revere these animals. I gain trust with your pets at their pace and give your cat that sense of calm and stability when you need to be away from home. I am highly experienced at all aspects of pet care including animal first aid and medication management including administering oral, topical and subcutaneous medication and saline. At every visit, I will: - Thoroughly clean pet bowls daily, serve your pets food and give any medications, per your instructions. - Check on the condition of, and tidy up your cat’s litter box at every visit. - Ensure that favorite places are clean and easy to access. - Do my best to engage them in play activities, brushing, petting, grooming or other happy cat behaviours, tailored to your feline. - Send you a “Pic of the Day”, to brighten your day, and as a quick note to update you at the end of each visit. - I won’t hesitate to get in contact if there is anything out of the ordinary or any questions that I need answers to, so rest assured of excellent communication.
About: I have a lovely cat of my own named banjo, he’s my very best pal. I have so much love for all animals and have easily connected with cats with all sorts of personality’s and needs. of note is i have experience with wound care and medication administration for cats!
“Kristen was fantastic! She was so kind, wonderful with our cats, left our home very clean and tidy, and she sent wonderful pictures. I felt so comfortable with her in our home and with our cats and would absolutely book with her again.”
About: I understand that cats are unique creatures who thrive on routine, a calm environment, and a sense of security. Whether your cat is playful and outgoing or more shy and independent, I tailor my care to their individual personality and preferences. During visits, I make sure their litter box is clean, fresh water is available, and their feeding schedule is followed exactly as directed. I also offer enrichment through play, grooming (if they enjoy it), and companionship—while always respecting their boundaries. I’m attentive to any changes in behavior, appetite, or litter habits, and will keep you updated with photos and notes so you always feel connected while you're away. Your cat’s comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities.
About: Cats are my FAVORITE animal! (most recent cat in photo) I was allowed by my family to rescue and adopt a cat when I was 5. She was a longhaired cat. She was shy, nervous but so sweet and taught me how patience is important to get cats to trust. After that, I rescued another shorthair cat and was gifted a siamese cat for my recent birthday. These cats are my everything and I love and enjoy caring for all cats! I’ve pet sat for cats of all different ages and fur length, even hairless ones! I love learning about cats the more I get to meet new ones!
About: I take care of three former stray cats who now live indoors, and they constantly meow at the door to be let out when they want to play. Each one has a different personality, which taught me how to care for shy cats, clingy ones, and cats who just want their space. I try to understand what each cat needs and make sure they feel safe and comfortable.
About: I tailor my care to each cat’s personality and routine. I’m comfortable following instructions for medications, special diets, and more detailed needs, and I keep litter boxes and feeding areas clean so their space stays fresh and comfortable. I also let cats warm up to me at their own pace. Whether they want playtime, affection, quiet company, or more personal space, I focus on helping them feel safe and relaxed while you’re away.
About: Hello, I'm Amanda I have 17 years of experience with different breeds of dogs and 11 years of experience with cats. I enjoy going on long walks and letting all of the fun loving energy out of furry friends! I currently set my own schedule I like to pet sit in between my travels and art projects. I like to enjoy meeting new pets and nature. I have a unfenced large yard that is also equipped with a river rock enclosed area and I live in a beautiful quiet neighborhood for long peaceful walks.
“Kristina was wonderful! She kept us apprised of how everyone was doing daily which was great. But most importantly, the cats were happy with her. She was able to medicate those on meds the first day - which for a bunch of indoor/outdoor cats and someone they don’t really know is amazing. We also had to make some last minute changes in our plans (because ice) and she was completely fine with that. We also loved that she had experience with chickens and exotic birds as we may be adding those to our family. We very much hope to work with her again.”

I provide safe, reliable, and fun walks that keep your dog happy, healthy and well exercised. Whether that’s a walk within your neighborhood or an adventure out in the woods, I tailor each outing to fit your dogs unique personality. I treat every pet as my own, with patience, kindness and plenty of belly rubs and scratches.

I currently work full time, but my schedule is pretty flexible! I have one cat that lives with me and he is the king of the castle! At your home, I have no problem crating your pets or letting them free roam, whatever is their normal routine, I will cater to their needs! I currently work full time (Monday-Friday) but could make pit stops before and after work! If needed, I can also swing by during my lunch break if it’s not too far out of town :) I currently am not in a home that could provide boarding, however I plan to take on the roles that you provide to your pets to make them feel safe in their home.

“Bryce and Nate have been incredibly accommodating and have kept our Loki pup (beagle) walked and snuggled during his daycare! He comes home a happy little guy! Highly recommend!”
“I needed someone to watch my dachshund for 3 days over a long weekend. I had no idea that 10 year old dachshund - who is a recent rescue - would receive so much more than just a place to stay. Linda did nothing short of transforming my dachshund from being dog reactive, to hanging out comfortably with her little pack. Linda knew exactly how to introduce my dog to hers, and build my dog’s confidence and socializing skills. I feel so optimistic now about my dog’s ability to learn to interact and have good manners. Linda is calm, patient, and has a spacious, clean house, and a charming garden area. Good vibes! She also upcycles cashmere sweaters into awesome doggie sweaters!”
“Avram is so sweet. You can see how much he loves dogs. He was easy to communicate with, both before and during the dogs’ visit. My dogs were happy after their visit with Avram!”
“Lisa did a wonderful job caring for my two dogs over the 2019 SOU Graduation weekend. I was very comfortable leaving my dogs with her as she displays a good amount of dog knowledge and safety standards. While visiting Ashland, it was really great to have a place for my pets just 15 minutes out of downtown, and a pet professional who can be counted on to keep them safe and relaxed all day long. Lots of dog photos were sent to me during the stay with Lisa! Ken H (Chico, CA)”
“Patience is kind, responsible, and exceptionally responsive. This was my 9 yo dog’s first time ever at a sitter. He was a bit nervous at first, but Patience put him at ease and he had a great time both days. An hour of chuck-it provided lots of exercise :) highly recommend this pet lover as your next pet sitter.”
“Thanks for a great experience dog sitting my two girls. Another dog sitter had fallen through and I needed to find someone reliable and I found Sylvia and I’m very glad that I did. Thank you for watching them with such short notice and going above and beyond take care of them and give them exercise, as well as taking them to your art gallery event and just including them. I feel like I would highly recommend Sylvia and I hope that I can have you watch the dogs again if we come back to Ashland”
“Kristina was so wonderful with Rosie! Rosie did not want to leave! She had lots of toys to play with & lots of love! Kristina sent funny pics and updates through Rosie’s stay and she responded quickly to my texts and questions. I will definitely reach out to Kristina again to care for Rosie & I highly recommend her & Winter to care for your dog!”
“I needed someone last minute for a roadtrip drive through and she accommodated! I felt comfortable the moment I met her and so did Theo (my child-dog). She sent me pictures, messages and reassurance when I needed it. I will contact her 100% when I return.”
“Anika was amazing with my puppy!! George had an awesome time at her place. I trusted Anika with my fur baby and felt completely at ease having him there knowing he was being well taken care of and loved by a fellow Golden mom. She even practiced some training with him that we have been working on. I Highly Recommend Anika!”

About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was young, handling dogs, cats, chickens, reptiles! I enjoy working with anyone, I’m friendly and kind! I can groom, clip nails for dogs, feed, I love walking dogs. I’m currently in the medical field and enrolling into nursing school, I find working with animals a fun, loving, and happy thing to do in my free time! I’m very flexible and easy to work with! Often available for holiday weekends or stays! I work part time while going to school so I can be available to take care of animals! I currently live in a house with me ESA cat Bella and her adopted brother Rip. that I’ve had since I was about 8 years old! I give them the best care, quality food, wet, dry and some raw/ cooked meats every once in awhile. I clean their litter box every day! I open the windows for her because she used to be a outside kitty and follow me around but she’s older now and likes to be sleeping with me or on the sofa with me. I have taken care of hyper dog breeds, the ones people think are overwhelming and they’re my favorite to work with! Once you create a good bond they look forward to anything! I enjoy playing with them, playing running games, walking a lot, and teaching commands.
About: My background in animal care extends well beyond traditional pet sitting. I completed extensive veterinary technology education while working full-time in a large, multi-department veterinary hospital, gaining years of hands-on experience with animals ranging from healthy puppies and routine-care patients to senior, hospitalized, post-op, and medically complex dogs. My subsequent transition into “human” healthcare has further strengthened the attention to detail and standard of care that I bring to every animal entrusted to me. My veterinary experience provided a comprehensive foundation in safe animal handling, canine behavior/temperament recognition, medication administration, medical-condition awareness, post-op care, and the identification of subtle changes that may indicate pain, anxiety, or physical distress. I am comfortable recognizing changes in behavior and overall presentation that may warrant closer observation or communication with a pet-parent. I am comfortable caring for dogs across all ages, sizes, and levels of need, including puppies, senior dogs, animals requiring additional behavioral consideration, and pets with established medical or mobility needs. My experience includes oral and injectable medication administration, incision and wound care, mobility assistance, post-operative monitoring, and incontinence-related care. Whether providing a walk, drop-in visit, extended sitting, or boarding, I approach pet care with the same principles that have guided my professional healthcare experience: attentive observation, appropriate precautions, consistency, clear communication, and respect for individualized care requirements. My goal is not simply to supervise a pet while an owner is away, but to provide knowledgeable, responsible care while maintaining the routine, safety, and level of attention each individual animal requires. I recently completed my Bachelor of Science in Respiratory Care and am currently preparing for my board examinations, which allows me a highly flexible schedule and the ability to be home much of the time. At present, I have considerable availability for walks, drop-in visits, boarding, and other pet-care needs, and I am able to adjust my study schedule around confirmed bookings. Once I begin working in the hospital, my anticipated schedule will consist of three scheduled shifts per week, leaving the remaining four days largely open and predictable for pet care. I do not have children or other routinely changing obligations that would interfere with confirmed bookings. Any known limitations to my availability will always be communicated in advance, and with clear communication regarding your pet’s schedule and needs, I am currently able to accommodate a wide range of scheduling requests. Safety and attentive supervision are priorities in our home. Between my husband and me, our dogs are never left home without one of us present, and I maintain that same standard of supervision for pets entrusted to my care. I would not leave a pet unattended while I am responsible for their care. We have a fully fenced backyard and maintain a clean, organized, and uncluttered home and outdoor environment. With a five-month-old puppy of our own, our home is consistently kept pet-safe, with unsafe or inappropriate items secured and inaccessible. I am also careful and deliberate when managing interactions between animals and never assume unfamiliar dogs can simply be left together unsupervised. Introductions, outdoor access, feeding, and shared spaces are appropriately supervised, with the safety and comfort of each individual pet remaining the priority. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I maintain the same standard of supervision, respect for their environment, and attention to safety.
“Lucia was absolutely wonderful! She made my dog feel comfortable, safe, and happy in her home. I could tell my pup felt at ease right away, and I got regular updates that gave me peace of mind. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy sitter!”

About: Welcome! I’m happy to share with you that I’ve been caring for animals for over 30 years, including dogs, cats, reptiles, farm animals, plants, and homes. Throughout that time, I’ve had the privilege of caring for pets of all ages, personalities, and needs—from energetic puppies/kitties and large breed dogs to senior pets who require medication, extra patience, and specialized care. *Before we move forward; an important sidenote to share is that you might notice in my review section some people will call me by my nickname, which is Azraiel, I’ve had that name for so many years that I have to include it in this little section here so that everybody has clarity😇) Moving forward~ One thing that has always mattered to me is understanding that every animal communicates differently. Dogs tend to wear their hearts on their sleeves, while cats often express themselves in much quieter ways. Learning those differences has helped me recognize when they’re excited, anxious, playful, uncomfortable, or simply looking for reassurance. I pay close attention to changes in behavior, appetite, mobility, and mood because those small details often tell us exactly what our companions need. I believe our animals are family members who trust us with their lives, and I believe they deserve to be cared for with that same love, respect, and attentiveness that I would offer my own family. Every pet has their own personality, routines, and preferences, and I enjoy getting to know each one as an individual. I also know that consistency helps pets feel safe and secure, so I do my best to follow their normal routines as closely as possible—whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, medication, playtime, bedtime, or simply giving them quiet companionship when that’s what they need. I bring a calm, patient presence and allow animals to build trust naturally, never forcing interactions. Along with compassionate care, I believe professionalism is equally important. I value clear communication, thoughtful updates, and dependable service. I enjoy sending photos and messages so you can relax knowing how your companion is doing while you’re away. You can also count on me to arrive on time (usually a little early), carefully follow your instructions, and treat both your pets and your home with the utmost respect. I take pride in leaving your home clean, secure, and just as you left it. My goal is simple: when you leave, I want you to have complete peace of mind. And when you return home, I hope you’re greeted by companions who feel safe, loved, understood, and genuinely cared for. That’s the standard I hold myself to every time I care for someone’s home and the family members who share it. Lastly, I know what it’s like to place your trust in someone else to care for those you love most, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly! 😊❤️🔥 Thank you for reading my little note here, I appreciate your time and energy~ Looking forward to connecting with you and your pet fam! 🐶🤍😻 I have in the past few months opened my life up in a way I have never done before. I wanted to experience a lot more freedom and flexibility and so that’s exactly what I have:) Well, that doesn’t disclose an exact schedule, I do want to communicate that I’m happy to discuss whatever schedule may reveal itself. I’m sure we can work something out:) You’ll notice the similar theme in what I expressed here compared to the other sections, regarding safety, trust and environment. I don’t mean to sound repetitive, but considering that we’re talking about a person’s home and family, I think, touching on repeated themes of trust, integrity, and good stewardship are well worth a revisit: 🤓🥰 I know that when you invite someone into your home, you’re not just trusting them with your house—you’re trusting them with members of your family. That’s a responsibility I hold with great care, and I don’t take it lightly. My goal is to honor the routines you’ve created, provide calm and attentive companionship, communicate openly, and care for your home and your animals with genuine respect. I believe consistency helps pets feel safe, so I do my best to maintain their normal routines while also paying close attention to their comfort, behavior, and individual needs. Whether I’m staying overnight or stopping by for a visit, you can expect thoughtful updates, dependable communication, and a home that’s cared for with the same respect I give your companions. I strive to leave your home just as you left it—clean, secure, and well cared for. Above all, I hope you can leave with complete peace of mind, knowing your companions are safe, understood, and cared for by someone who truly sees them as family. My commitment is to provide faithful stewardship of both your home and the family members who share it.
“Kristen was so sweet, professional, and caring for the month or so I needed her. Fortunate finding her to trust with my puppy and in my house (which is hard for me as a natural worrier). She communicated about situations that arose.”

About: I have been a dog owner since the age of 5. I have looked over and trained numerous dog throughout the years. I am excited to spend time with your special guy. I currently work from home. I will be present most days. We have fenced yard so I can let the dog out often if needed. I have a good sized fenced yard with a park across the street to allow the dogs exercise. I have my side kick Jimmie a 3 year old mutt that is friendly and always looking for a new dog friend.
About: I’ve been dog walking and pet sitting for many different dogs over the years. When I was 11, my family adopted a large Border Collie puppy, and I was very active in the responsibilities needed for a puppy with that much energy. Over time, I’ve enjoyed pet sitting because different dogs, especially by breed have different personalities and maintenances that are unique. I’m active and able to walk/do activities with dogs, but through experience not all dogs need that, and L’m excited to meet new pups! I’ve had significant experience with: collies, huskies, chihuahuas, rat terriers, labs, doodle mixes, and mixed recuse dogs! I work part time, but I am also a college student-athlete! In the summers and late spring my schedule is almost completely clear! In the school year I do not work, but I have certain times blocked off for practice. I am available by phone almost all hours of the day! Whether I am in my own home, a clients home, or the public, I only want to ensure that the animal I am with feels safe and all its needs are met. I want the pet to have a good time and feel comfortable with me. In terms of environment I think being neat and clean is very important for both the pet and myself. When mealtimes come, I make all my animals sit or wait patiently until the food is ready and I am not mean, but I do encourage good behavior at all times and try to get the pet to practice small trainings or commands when appropriate.
About: Here’s some Info about me: I am 18, graduated class of 2025, currently just trying to start my life and figure out my goals and ambitions. I’ve grown up around all sorts of animals, also including farm animals and reptiles, I have also helped facilitate 3 Labrador litters. Caring for animals is a huge passion of mine so I am grateful to have the opportunity to spend my time doing this. I am super flexible and under standing. I’m currently working part time in the evenings. I have weekends off. I sometimes work Saturday but I will never double book if I know it won’t work with my schedule, the pets in my care are always my first priority. I love to stay active, so taking animals outside on walks and runs is also enjoyable for me if that’s what your pet needs, I’m super accommodating aswell.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 13. Family friends have always relied on me for help. They trust me more than anything else. Hi! I’m a dependable, caring, and patient animal lover who treats every pet like they’re part of my own family. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and routine, and I’m committed to making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping your pet company, I’ll provide plenty of attention and care. I’m reliable, communicate well, and I’m happy to send photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members and giving them the love and care they deserve! I have 2 family golden-doodles who have taught me huge amounts about dogs! My family adopted them when they were puppies and have been adored since.
About: I grew up with 3 dogs and a pig. I love all animals. Pigs are my favorite. Hopefully my boyfriend and I are getting a puppy soon. As a full time dog walker/pet sitter I have availability most days. Just give me a heads up and I’ll be playing with your pups in no time :) Unfortunately I can’t board at my apartment. I can however stay overnight at your residence or do frequent check ins depending on your preference.
About: I have 3 cats, but I care deeply about all animals. My life’s calling is to care for animals which is why I finally decided to proceed with vet tech schooling. My whole life I have taken care of dogs and cats and have loved every moment of it. Caring for my pets is the best and most satisfying part of my day. After working with tech in Geek Squad for 2 and a half years, I spent a lot of time thinking about what I want to do in life. I always knew my calling was to care for animals which is why I am in the process of starting vet tech schooling and looking for a job outside of tech working as a vet assistant. I promise to always provide the best care you could ask for when caring for your pets. If your animals need to come to my house I do have a big fenced in yard that they can play in and I welcome all animals in all rooms of my house and they are allowed to be on furniture. Because of how much I care for animals you will never have to worry about your pet being left alone or missing a meal.
About: I have grown up with a variety of animals, thus providing me with a wealth of experience. I grew up with a small and a medium dog, though frequently would look after larger and higher energy dogs for family, friends, and other folks in my community. I love cats and have one of my own! I have experience with medication administration for special needs animals or animals with health concerns and would be happy to assist your pet with these things so you can feel comfortable leaving home without worry for their wellbeing!

I am also available saturday afternoons, and all day sundays, and mondays for convenient weekend trips. Happy to work with you and your schedule to make sure your pets are treated like family! I am happy to provide care for your pets in your home, and would love to support with housework if needed! I am thorough and attentive and will be sure to take extra care and time when you are away from your pets. I know how hard it can me to leave pets home, they are family! I want you to feel calm and safe knowing how loved your animal is with me!
About: I stay VERY BUSY petsitting, because I have several regular clients I Petsit, house sit, clean and organize for 16 years. Only sweet loving breeds of dogs, and all cats, chickens, goats, horses, koi,and pet squirrels! I have Virtual work that I can do while I'm Petsitting and housesitting. Also if I am hired to clean or organize a home while I'm Petsitting, that works out really well I care for pets in their own home to minimize their anxiety while their moms and dads are away. I make them feel as comfortable as they can be by sticking to their routine.
About: I have done pet sitting for over 5 years which include boarding, housesitting and dog walking. I have also cared for cats, chickens, exotic birds and baby goats (bottle fed). I have cared for elderly pets, seizure pets and have no problem with giving medications. ****If you are requesting housesitting, I do have a small easy-going chill dog that likes to come with me if you are ok with that. He gets along with all dogs and cats alike. I do request that we have a meet and greet prior so as to ensure you are comfortable with me in your home and with your pets. I work remotely during the day. So I would be with your pet(s) for the majority of the day. They would only be left alone a few hours on occasion for errands/appointments and such. So they would get plenty of potty breaks, love and attention while you are away. I will care for you pet(s) per your instructions. While at my house they will be allowed on furniture and my bed for extra cuddle time. They will be given plenty of walks and playtime!

I currently own 3 dogs and 3 cats so I know they need love and attention many times a day just like a kid, and I will treat them like I treat my own loved ones. I currently do gig work full time and thus have a fully open schedule. I am able and willing to be there for your animals and house needs at any given hour. I am not currently offering care in my own home as I do not have the capacity of a correct home to take care of your loved ones since I already have my own friends in mine.

“Our dog had an unexpected medical issue right before we left town and required medication and a cone while we were gone. Nate was communicative and sent me a photo every day. Our guy was healthy and seemed happy when we got home.”
“Jen was an awesome sitter for our sweet Golden, Captain. She was welcoming and kind from the start and I could tell how much she loves her Labs and felt a kinship that Captain would be welcomed into the retriever pack! Although I was nervous because he hasn’t really been around kitties, he ended up doing fine and Jen assured me he adjusted well and she sent great updates and photos while we were away! I highly recommend Jen!”
“Avram took the best care of our dog. This is the first time we’ve left him with someone outside of his immediate “circle” and Avram was a calm, reliable source of care for both our dog and us. We received daily updates and pictures as well as prompt communication regarding drop off and pickup. We would definitely have Avram care for our dog again!”
About: I've been an animal lover my whole life and have always had at least one dog or cat in our home, as well as others often like fish and reptiles. I even lived and worked on a goat farm for a while and milked and cared for the goats. I'm an avid hiker and am happy to walk your dog for any length preferred on trail or road. In my other work I have over 15 years of experience as a healer (massage therapy and energy work) and meditation/yoga instructor and bring the calm this field has taught me to pet care. I'm used to hearing pet people tell me that their pets are so calm around me. I seek to form a connection based on trust and understanding with your pet. I am, without a doubt, a cat lady having had cats in my life since the age of 5. I currently have a sweet and sensitive Calico, who has lived with me for the past 11 years. She is a finicky eater and often deals with digestive issues, so I've had plenty of experience with various food regimes and giving supplements. We also have a sweet, playful, young male cat in our home (my daughter's cat) and a beloved bearded dragon. We recently welcomed a Shiba Inu into our family and she is such a joy in our home. I offer pet care as a side gig to my other work and love any opportunity to connect with your furry friends and other pets. I offer pet care part-time in addition to other work I do. I'm happy to walk dogs most weekdays/weekends between 8 am-3 pm and I can do pet check-in's most weekdays and some weekends and holidays with a few days notice. I am sometimes available for overnight pet stays in your home with ample prior notice. When coming to your home, I follow what usual routines you share with me for your pet and treat your home with utmost respect and care. If you have a preferred route to take your dog on a walk or favorite dog park, I'm happy to go with whatever your norm is and will make your dog most comfortable.
“Linda was FANTASTIC! My wife and I am very protective of our French Bulldog, Penny. We rarely leave her alone and never for 9 days. But we had a vacation cruise booked and had to find a sitter for Penny. We were both very nervous leaving her anywhere for so long. But Linda put us to ease after meeting her and touring her home. She has a large backyard and I personally walked the perimeter (twice!) carefully looking for any holes or places a small dog could weasel out. It's secure! One thing we really appreciated was that Linda works from home and was with Penny the entire time. We got updates and pictures daily and that helped us relax and enjoy our vacation. Penny got lots of love and attention and care. Most important to us, she was safe. Thank you Linda! We will be back.”
“Absolutely amazing experience with Anyssah! She kept me informed at all time and assured me he was doing well as this was my first time leaving him with someone he didn’t know. She also accommodated to his needs and just made this stay so much easier for us to go through. I will absolutely book her again if needed. Thank you Anyssah!”
“It's kind of a big deal to leave your pet with a stranger. I am so happy to report that I now have a trusted person to give love to my dog when I have to go away for work. Anika took care of my golden retriever, Baron, over the weekend while I was out of town. Baron and I met her before our trip and I could tell that my dog was immediately at ease in her home. The house is very clean and cute and Anika and her family are warm and welcoming. There is a fenced in front yard with grass for Baron to play and get some exercise. I missed my pup so Anika even texted pictures over the weekend when she took him for walks. I will happily use Anika again the next time I need day or night care for Baron! Definitely recommend.”
“Alicia was fantastic. She was very welcoming and took great care of Mochi and Waffles. They had fun playing with her dog, Zuko too. Will definitely ask her to take care of Mochi and Waffles in the future.”
“I had never boarded my older dog before and was anxious about the whole situation, but Julianne & Ragen made the whole process start to finish so much more comfortable than I had expected! Being able to communicate before, during and after our vacation really helped me to feel confident that our sweet Kiwi was happy, healthy and well taken care of. We will definitely reach out to Julianne & Ragen next time we need a friend for our sweet girl!”
“Easy 5 stars. Abigail was awesome! Great to work with, great with my pup. I needed to pop up north for the weekend and am so thankful I found her. Ranger had a blast being watched. He was played with and cared for really well. I recommend Abigail to anyone in the area who needs a trustworthy dog sitter.”
About: As you consider if you want to trust your “fur-baby” to us, you should know that my wife Kathy and I have been involved with dogs for more than 40 years. We give cuddles and pets as needed and encourage our dogs to be friendly to all that visit. Our first dog and the subsequent 6 dogs we have kept as family members were all rescue dogs. We have experience with Border Collies, Corgis, Mixed Breeds, German Wired-Haired Pointer and American Brittany dogs. We have been active in the American Brittany Rescue organization since 2011 having placed more than 16 dogs in forever homes including 4 Brittanys that we have kept for our family. While we have crate-trained our dogs when they first came to our home, typically once they show that they can use the doggie door to go outside, we have given them free roam of the house and yard except for bedrooms. We keep the crate available when a dog wants to isolate themselves or they need a timeout. We are happy to give quiet time to the dogs in the middle of the afternoon especially after a snack and/or a walk. Our home has a doggie door that can accommodate a large dog and that gives the dogs freedom to go outside on their own. Finally, we have boarded and watched over our children’s dogs for many years when we lived in CA. We would be happy to board and walk your dog and give you the peace of mind that we have enough experience and temperament to insure your dog has a good time at our house. My wife and I are home full time as we are both retired. While we enjoy our walks and our gym time, we have plenty of time to watch over and play with your dog. We have a fenced yard and 2 friendly dogs (age 7 & 10) to keep your fur baby company. We can crate your dog if needed and would prefer that your dog be able to take themselves into the yard to go potty once they learn to use the doggie door.
