“Hailey was amazing with our dog! She was easy to coordinate with and eager to take care of Luna. Hailey kept in touch and even sent pictures. We felt like our dog went on vacation at the same time we did. Hailey took her on walks and played with her. Hailey was a great find and we will definitely use her again!!”
About: Animals are my absolute passion, and I treat every single pet I meet with care! I have two years of experience working in a veterinary clinic, where I get to spend my days providing loving care and treatment to dogs and cats. Through my work managing clinic kennels and overnight boarding, I’ve learned exactly how to keep our furry friends safe, and happy while their owners are away. I truly love all animals and am currently working toward my lifelong dream of becoming a veterinarian. I am fully comfortable administering medications, providing fun, energetic walks, and making sure your pet gets plenty of love, attention, and playtime. You can always trust that I will treat your home with the utmost respect and care while watching over your fur baby’s. I’m currently a college student with plenty of time in my schedule to care for your pets! I am available every day before 8:00 AM for early visits, free most afternoons and evenings, and fully open on weekends. I also have plenty of breaks between classes throughout the week for drop-ins. I can easily stop by up to three times a day, and I’m always happy to work around my class times to match your pet’s routine! I always like get to know the pet before hand so they can get familiar with me. I am happy to play and run around with dogs, or just relax and pet them. My goal is to have a comfortable and happy pet.
“Lauren did a great job taking care of our fur babies! I can tell they enjoyed their time with Lauren and that she loved watching them! She sent pics and communicated so well. We will definitely ask her to watch our girls again!”
“Kathryn is a God send!! She has been unbelievably helpful, kind, communicative and flexible!! She watched my dog for a week and sent daily pics. My dog loved being with her.”
About: I’ve grown up taking care of pets, I treat every pet like they’re my own, with dependable care and a safe environment young or old.

About: ***Updated 01/06/2025 I was born/raised with large dogs. I have experience from puppy-aged to senior dog-aged. I have 25+ years experience with equine/farm stock. I’ve been pet/farm/house-sitting for 13 years. Have puppy/dog training experience, including rescue/abused dogs. I’ve cared for multiple animals including, but not limited to: dogs, cats, horses, donkeys, pigs, chickens, ducks, goats, sheep, and cattle, rats, mice, and Guinea pigs. I am self-employed and work remotely, so I can arrange my schedule as needed for services. I can work anywhere I have wi-fi! I'm also able to leave the house spur-of-the-moment for last-minute bookings. I do have a cardiac alert & mobility assistance service dog, so if he's allowed to come house-sit with me, just let me know. If not, he will happily stay at home with my husband. If he's with me during drop-ins, he stays in the truck for everyone's safety, so no need to worry about that! I treat anyone’s pets better than my own to ensure top care! I am used to intricate feeding/medication schedules for all types of animals. My husband and I rent a house on a cattle ranch. We have a large fenced-in yard away from livestock and our horses. We have doggy gates throughout our home, so if dogs need to be separated during feeding, sleeping, etc. I am able to do that. I have dog crates available (large & small), if you don't want to bring your own. If I come to your home, I will follow any and all expectations and follow-up if something is unclear. I want my visits to be as close to what your pets are used to. I only board dogs from one household at a time, so you don't need to worry about your dogs being with any other dogs but our 2.

“Bethany was an absolute life saver for my husband & I when we went on an extended vacation. It was such a relief to know she was taking good care of our rescue kittens. She was timely & great about sending pictures/updates after each visit. We would definitely recommend Bethany to care for your pets and will reach out to her again when we travel.”
About: I am a dog loving patient person who enjoys long walks. I have volunteered with the SPCA and have been around teacup Chihuahuas to big and active dogs such as Shepherds, Great Danes, and high energy Greyhounds and Catahoulas. I have owned and taken care of several big dogs most of my life to include: a Shepherd, Black Labs, a couple Dachshunds and a full-blooded Catahoula; so I understand the rigours of the exercise that they need. I am available almost anytime, except for the hours of church. Give me a shout and if you would prefer to meet me before entrusting your faithful companion or baby to my care, I would be happy to meet up with you and rover to see how we click.
“Robin is the best pet sitter/walker we have ever had. She is thoughtful and thorough and all our pets love her. She takes excellent pictures and we feel so much better when she checks in on our pets.”
“Highly recommend Abigail! She was very responsive and respectful. Our girls really enjoyed their time with her. Abigail should be your first choice when caring for your pets. 😊👍🏻”
About: I’ve been pet sitting for about 2 years and have three cats of my own, so I understand that every cat has a unique personality and routine. Whether your cat is playful, shy, or prefers their space, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, and updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your cat is in good hands.

About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was six years old, starting with my childhood dog. As an adult, I’ve had the joy of caring for my own pets, including three dogs, two rats, several fish, and even chickens. My experience goes beyond my own pets—I’ve also looked after animals for neighbors, family, and friends, ensuring they receive the love and attention they deserve. Whether it's feeding, walking, or simply providing companionship, I take pride in giving every pet the best care possible. I'm currently working part-time as a Door Dasher and Uber Eats delivery driver. So I'll have plenty of time to play and attend to your pups at anytime of the day or night. I'm available for boarding your pets on weekends, and weekdays after 2pm. I live in a house on 10 acres of land so I have plenty of yard for your pups to run around. I also have 2 friendly dogs to keep your fur babies company. Also, if I need to kennel your dog, we do keep a large kennel in the house. We do allow the dogs on the furniture. We also have a bunch of dog toys and dog treats that we get from a monthly membership we pay for.
“Norman seemed very content when I picked him up, no issues, he was in good spirits, this is a reflection that he was a good match for Cecilia and her family. We went home and had a yogurt cream cone, his favorite treat.”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of care, patience, and attention I give to every pet as if they were my own. I understand that every animal has a different personality, routine, and comfort level, so I make it a priority to help them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I’m dependable, communicative, and detail-oriented, and I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages so you know your pet is doing well. I’m also comfortable caring for pets with different energy levels and needs, including puppies/kittens that require extra patience and consistency, as well as senior pets who may need slower walks, medication reminders, or additional attention and gentle care. I have experience handling feeding schedules, playtime, walks, crate routines, and helping reinforce basic training habits for younger pets. I’m also attentive to behavior changes and make safety my top priority at all times. My goal is to make sure your pet stays happy, comfortable, and stress-free while giving you peace of mind. As a college student who works part time, pet care fits well into my routine because I’m used to managing my time responsibly and staying organized. I make sure pets receive consistent care, attention, playtime, and any needed routines throughout the day. Spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy, and my flexible schedule allows me to provide reliable and attentive care while balancing school and work. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow feeding schedules, provide fresh water, clean litter boxes, give medications if needed, and make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and comfort. I also keep the home clean and secure while providing regular updates and photos so owners feel reassured while they’re away. In my own home, I provide a calm, safe, and pet-friendly environment where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed. I pay close attention to their behavior and individual needs, whether that means extra playtime for younger pets or gentle care and quiet space for senior animals. My experience in a veterinary clinic has also helped me stay attentive to pets’ health, safety, and overall wellbeing at all times.
