“Ace of course enjoyed his stay ! He was so excited . I loved getting the pictures and videos and seeing how happy he was with Emily and her family . They take such great care of him everytime .”

“Tisha was AMAZING. She constantly kept me updated with photos and videos of my baby while I was away and truly seemed to be engaged in his training and interests. She was also extremely flexible as I ran into some unexpected changes in my travel schedule. I would 1000% use her again and would recommend her to anyone who has a pet that needs that extra attention and LOVE.”

“I was overjoyed with the care Shyonda provided to my FurBaby!!! I received great communication and even some pictures and videos. I know that is always a bonus to have those extra perks from a sitter. She didn’t have to provide the pictures and videos but she did. When I picked him up he was happy to see me and I could tell he was NOT stressed. He was very content and looked well care for. I will DEFINITELY be using her service again!!”

“Lesly took great care of Pickles while I was away. She sent lots of photos and he was very happy when he returned home. Thank you, Lesly, for taking great care of him!!”

“Chanisy was amazing! My pup was very well cared for and happy during her stay. She was easy to get ahold of and communicate with and sent daily pictures of all Nikita’s activities. Will use her again!!”

“Very responsive and sent lots of pictures. My flight waa delayed and put me getting in very late but she was willing to work with me to have my dog stay another night. Plenty of space for the dog to run around. Definitely reccomend.”

“Gabriela and Alex were so amazing with our dog, Boris. Boris can be temperamental, so I was worried, but they quickly put me at ease with how caring they were to him. So much so that we had a hard time getting him out of their house haha looking forward to booking again!”

“Savannah was amazing with Remi and Luna! This was my first time leaving them with a sitter, and she made the whole experience stress free. She kept me updated, sent photos, and took great care of both girls. I came home to two happy pups and couldn’t be more grateful. Highly recommend!”

“We’ve had such a wonderful experience with Claudia and Alexis. They’ve taken care of our dog twice now, and each time we’ve felt completely at ease knowing our pet was in such loving hands. They consistently send daily pictures and updates, which we truly appreciate. It makes being away so much easier. It’s clear they genuinely care for the animals they look after and treat them as if they were their own. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate dog sitter. We will absolutely continue using their services in the future!”

“Wonderful experience! We were nervous to leave our young dog while going out of town on short notice. We hadn’t had her very long and she is shy around strangers; on top of that she started her first heat and had her spay delayed. Needless to say, I was so nervous about having to be separated from her. Hannah and her family did a wonderful job watching our dog while we were out of town. We got pictures and updates several times a day. On our meet and greet, we got to check out the huge backyard and Hannah took special care to learn my dog’s routine, favorite toys, etc. Hannah even gave her a little bath when her fur got matted so that she would be more comfortable. When we went to pick her up, our dog felt so at home that she acted like she lived there! We give an A+ and will book again!”

“Wendy was THE absolute best!! She was very kind and accommodating!! I had complications happen with my move and at the last minute, she didn’t hesitate to keep my babies an extra day!! I highly, highly, HIGHLY recommend Wendy!! And, while I don’t often have a need, any time I do, she’s who I will go to 💕”


“Karen and her family was so great with my puppy. She even got him to start going outside instead of using puppy pads. She kept me informed with texts and pictures while I was away. I would definitely recommend her.”

“Kami is a true dog whisperer! My 2 German Shepherds just love staying with Kami and the attention she gives them. They had a wonderful time and we will look forward to their spending time with Kami again!”

“Valentina was very quick to respond to messages and easy to book with. She sent pictures/updates of our dogs regularly and they seemed to have a good time at her house! Would recommend!”

“I boarded my fur baby Shadow with Jada. She is caring and engaging. She gave me frequent pictures, videos and updates throughout the day. Even took the boarded babies on an adventure. I'm so pleased that I found her. I will be booking with her again! Thank you so much, Jada for all you do.”

“We had an absolutely amazing experience! From the moment we met Jay, it was clear how much he truly cares about dogs. Our pup was so happy, comfortable, and well-loved the entire stay. We received regular updates, photos, and great communication, which gave us total peace of mind. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog—always the best sign. We will 100% be booking again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving sitter.”


“Erin and Josh were wonderful with Bailey! They made her feel welcome and provided a calm, comforting environment when she became a little anxious. Erin gave us updates everyday by text and sent photos and even a couple of videos. We are so glad we found Erin and Josh to care for our Bailey girl when we are away!”

“Rachel was great with responses & pics. My dog was so happy and had a great time with Holly & the fam. Will definitely use her again! Holly is a sweet Rottie & they played so well together. Thanks Rachel, fam & Holly for taking care of my girl!!”
“Barbara took amazing care of my dog, she went above and beyond for care. She was also great with communication while my dog was in her care. This was my first booking with her but I will defiantly be booking with her again.”

About: I come from a major animal loving family & have been surrounded by many different types of animals as far back as I can remember! I'm surprised it took me so long to make it into a profession, but I've been caring for other peoples' pets & homes for about 10 years now. My schedule is currently very flexible & I am often open to travel a ways from home for longer sits. I have my own cat, Frank, who is fairly aloof & quite understanding when I come home smelling like other animals. 😹 My current home is not suitable for having extra pets in it, so getting to sit in YOUR home is great for all parties involved - I get my cute animal fix, you get peace of mind that your pets & home are safe & well looked after, & your pets don't have too much disruption to their daily routine so they're less stressed while you're away!
“Sam was awesome! She watched both my dogs for a week while out of time. She’s extremely prompt and spot on with timing of her drop ins. She took awesome care of my dogs and I’d recommend anyone looking for help to reach out to her!”

“Kelly did a great job sitting with our 5 big dogs. She came twice a day and loved on them, fed them & let them play. We rarely go anywhere because of our dogs but now we know we can as long as Kelly is available! Thank you Kelly!”

About: I have always had pets growing up still have some! I love animals with a passion. You can trust me to treat your pet like it’s my own! I have taken a break from work because I want to focus on starting a family so I will be doing some rover jobs on the side. I currently live in a house with a big back yard I am willing to watch 1 dog at my house because I do have 4 other dogs that live with me.
About: Growing up in La Cañada Flintridge, my love for animals has been an integral part of my life since childhood. Dogs have always gravitated towards me, making it clear that caring for animals comes naturally to me. I believe dogs are truly a gift from above, sent to bring joy and laughter into our lives. Huntington Dog Beach is my happy place, where I can connect with these wonderful creatures and witness the pure happiness they bring. As a dedicated medical professional with over 25 years of experience in La Cañada Flintridge, I understand the importance of compassion and care. My my schedule is open. I dream of one day having a dog ranch where all furry friends are welcome, providing love and safety for those in need. With a genuine connection to animals that rivals human relationships, I'm excited to share my love and care with your beloved pets. Currently my schedule is open for pet care. I am able to care for pets during the day but I also can do overnights as well. I believe it’s most beneficial for your beloved pets to remain in their environment of their homes so that they can feel safe and secure.

About: I have a female ginger cat named Sandy and male ginger cat named Syren. And they are my main source of experience with cats, I worked with cat but it was rare. The time I did spend I was taught how to administer medicine. Also with me becoming a vet tech, I’m learning the ways of cats as well. I love playing with cats and if you cat like to go on walks or have outside time I wouldn’t mind providing that for them. If you needed any other services I can also provide that as well, such as nails trims and baths.

“It was my first time using the app and was unsure a how it will go but I am so glad that I did use and found Kyla. She was amazing and went above and beyond to make sure I didn’t have to worry about Fluffy. She sent detailed descriptions of her visits and sent regular updates. Spent extra time with Fluffy to make sure he felt comfortable around her. She managed to put a bandana around Fluffy’s neck which was a cute surprise when I got back. Thank you Kyla for being amazing. 10/10 will book her again next time I am traveling.”

About: I have had dogs my entire life ever since i was born. i treat my own 3 as if they are my actual babies (i mean they are!) I am so excited to be taking care of your baby soon. I am home from school around 3:30 an can get to you pretty quick. I always take my rowdy little lady to the park every friday evening when possible and we even get little snacks on the way home. feed them on schedule, provide fresh water, give exercise and playtime, clean up after them, and offer comfort and attention. Always follow the client’s specific instructions.

About: Labeling me as a cat lover/sitter is an understatement. I’ve been taking care of cats for as long as I can remember. Most recently my friend’s cat Luna. My friend is a frequent traveler so I would have to pet sit frequently. As I took care of Luna I’ve managed to observe and learn her personality. Which allows me to be a better fit for her care. Luna is an energetic cat and mischievous which I’ve learned to love. There is never a dull moment. I get excited to be able to take care of her and any other cats that come along with me on this app.

“Tayler did such a good job with my sweet boy. She played with him, made sure he had plenty of potty breaks and even took him on walks. Also got updates and pictures which was very nice. I completely trust her to take care of him and keep him safe and he likes her a lot so that’s a plus. Thank you so much for being so awesome and taking care of my boy!”

About: As a pet owner, sitter, falconer, and former zoo keeper, a majority of my life revolves around animals. Their proper care and well being is of the utmost importance to me. I have been pet sitting just over ten years, while maintaining other jobs but am now pursuing this full time as a means to help support my growing family. In my free time I offer free snake relocation services; as well as reptile and falconry/raptor education events. I have helped whelp litters, bottle feed, tube feed, hand feed (birds). I’m experienced in medication administration, as well as abiding by special diet restrictions. I maintain a federal falconry license as well as a state sub-permit for wildlife rehab. I’ve cared for everything from birds to reptiles, exotic mammals, wildlife to house pets! There are few animals I’m uncomfortable with and for that reason my rates are adjustable for those with special circumstances! I’ve always felt I had a special bond with animals and I’d love to provide your pet with the same love, care and attention I would provide my own. Pet care is a daily part of my life! Fortunately, I livewoth my fiancee who’s just as passionate about animals and am able to leave my own animals with him when I’m working. Animals have been my whole life and I’m in no hurry to change that. I will always show animals the same love, attention, respect and care that I would show my own personal pets. Truthfully, I’ve never met an animal I didn’t love

About: We offer a structured, calm, and enriching boarding experience not a chaotic, overcrowded environment. Located on 35 private acres with creek access, your dog will have space to explore, exercise, and decompress in a safe and controlled setting. With a background in dog training, we focus on maintaining structure, reinforcing good behavior, and ensuring every dog feels secure and balanced during their stay. This is not high volume boarding we intentionally limit how many dogs we take so each one gets the attention they deserve. Our schedule is built around the dogs in our care. I am home full time and actively manage the dogs throughout the day, ensuring consistent supervision, exercise, and structure. Dogs are not left unattended, and we maintain a routine that promotes calm behavior, proper rest, and balanced activity. Because we limit how many dogs we take at one time, we’re able to give each dog the attention and oversight they deserve. Your dog’s safety and well-being are our top priorities. Our property offers 35 private acres, but all outdoor time is structured and supervised. this is not a free-for-all environment. We carefully assess each dog’s temperament and energy level to ensure appropriate interactions. Dogs are only socialized when it’s safe and beneficial, and we are fully comfortable managing dogs individually if needed. Cleanliness, routine, and low stress are a major focus here. We do not overcrowd, and we maintain a calm, controlled atmosphere that helps dogs settle in quickly. With experience in dog behavior and training, we’re confident handling a wide range of personalities from high energy working breeds to more sensitive or anxious dogs.

About: I used to work as a Vet Tech for 3 years. Up until a few years ago I have always had an indoor dog and/or cat. When our fur baby Milly (Pit/ Staffy) passed and we found we enjoy entertaining a variety of breeds. Since then we have got another pit baby Ollie. He has grown up with a new pup in the house almost daily. He loves friends! He is very well socialized and loves everyone! We would love to share all our love with your Fur baby. My kids love when the fur babies want in bed with them. I have a nice sized fenced in back yard, and different sized kennels, including an extra large kennel. Also an exterior 10x 10 covered kennel outside. We love bringing your sweet baby in to our home to get some loving from all of us. I have 4 kids 20, 18, 13, 8. They all love animals and know how to treat fur babies. We have 5 cats, Shadow, Toofless, Athena, Mustashio, & Corbin. We are in a nice neighborhood and can take daily walks if that is what your pup enjoys. We play fetch in the back yard all the time. I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby! Thank you for considering us! I am a stay at home mom and homeschool all my kids. We are a big part of our church CTC:Church That Cares Tarkington and are in attendance every time the doors are open. I am the Tech team leader and my husband plays the bass. My 2 oldest daughters run our coffee shop & sing as well. We like to walk on a leash, even in the fenced in yard, to make sure you are comfortable. Please let us know if you would prefer them to free roam in the yard with supervision.
“we were glad to have the day care visit available to get Fawn used to being with other dogs. we felt Chanisy handled her great, and we’re glad for that. we dont like boarding her at the Vets office because they dont really play or have her get exercise which she needs. When Chanisy sent pictures and video of Fawn playing it made us very happy. We highly recommend Chanisy”

Whether it’s playtime, walks, feeding, or cuddle time, I make sure each dog feels cared for and loved. My first “job” was at 11 years old as the neighborhood dog watcher. I started a boarding company called “DogGone” and was entrusted at a really young age and to take care of loved ones and never disappointed.

My flexible schedule ensures your pet receives consistent companionship and care, not just occasional supervision. I have a secure fenced yard and two friendly, well-socialized dogs who can keep your pup company if desired. I’m attentive to each dog’s comfort level and can separate or crate as needed to match your pet’s personality and routine.

About: I've taken care of pets personally since I was eight years old. I have professionally cared for a variety of cute pups for nine years. Ensuring that each experience is individual for every Fur Mom/Dad is important to me so you feel most assured your pet is well taken care of when you are gone. I have experience administering some medications and dealing with special needs as well. I am currently working full-time (M-F, 7a-4p). I am off weekends! Even working full-time, I still have plenty of time to spend caring for your pet(s). I am available during the weekday around my work schedule, and I am open on weekends for the convenience of your travel needs! I have been a member of the Cleveland community since 2022. When I care for your pet(s), I work with pet parents to develop an individualized care plan, so although you may be away, they are on the same schedule for their comfort and the pet parent's ease of mind. Constant communication is essential to me, as I know how difficult it can be to be away from your best friend; frequent updates allow pet parents ease of mind and comfort knowing their pet is well cared for. While I care for your pet(s), I will message you as I arrive at your home, send detailed updates and photos while I am with your fur children, and let you know when I leave. I do work full-time (M-F, 7a-4p), but I work with pet parents' needs and can always work with the fur babies before I go to work and after work as long as that fits the pet parent's needs. I work with pet parents to create an individualized plan. By making these, I can know all the do's and don'ts with their pet. I have experience with clients with fenced yards to lease only and crating dogs while away. I will ensure your pet is safe, comfortable, and stress-free while in my care.

About: We are a new family of three and are preparing to add a wired hair fox terrier in the near future. We had a family dog when I was young but he sadly passed away due to old age. My husband and son love dogs and all animals. His previous pair of dogs was sadly stolen from him and he hasn’t been ready to get another pet. That recently changed when our son started showing extreme interest in dogs and other animals. We want to test the waters with dog boarding and walking to see before committing. For us, a pet is forever. I work from home and my work is flexible. I can accommodate changes in schedule. My office is in the galleria area and my house is in humble. I can do dog walks in the galleria area as well. I have a fenced backyard and empty rooms to house the dogs if they need to have their own space. We live in a very friendly neighborhood and parks nearby.

About: I have had dogs in my care my whole life; I love them, and to me, they are part of the family—important members. Sometimes I feel they need more care and love than it might seem; they get stressed and often develop bad habits because of it, so I focus on ensuring they aren't stressed during their walks. playtime (they need to burn off energy) and walk time (they need to explore and use their sense of smell), Make sure they are well-hydrated, since walks involve peeing, which results in water loss. I consider dogs to be another member of the family, so I understand the importance of their safety and follow your specific instructions (zero contact with other dogs, zero contact with children who might want to pet other people's pets—it's up to you).

About: I have loved animals ever since I was a little girl! Especially dogs! I grew up wanting a big house full of dogs and ever since I was in high school I have dog sat for families and friends! I have had a hard time in the past finding someone to watch my pup when I’ve been out of town so I would love to offer first class service to help others! I currently work full-time, however, I work from home so I have plenty of time for your pup! I am available every weekday and most weekends! I live in an apartment, however I have lots of space for your pet to run around and play and be crated if needed! There is an on site dog park and plenty of parks near by for walking and playing!
About: I provide wonderful and reliable service. I am very attentive and willing and able to care for any dogs special needs. Any dog big or small, I will love and tend to them like they are my own. Their happiness and safety are my first priority when dog sitting or dog walking. I would love to be of service to you and your animal. I am currently looking to get more active on the days and nights i do not work, and walking dogs is the perfect thing i can think of! I have two 15 lb dogs who love to play! I have my own crate if needed, but would prefer to have you provide one that your dog is comfortable with.
About: Growing up in La Cañada Flintridge, my love for animals has been an integral part of my life since childhood. Dogs have always gravitated towards me, making it clear that caring for animals comes naturally to me. I believe dogs are truly a gift from above, sent to bring joy and laughter into our lives. Huntington Dog Beach is my happy place, where I can connect with these wonderful creatures and witness the pure happiness they bring. As a dedicated medical professional with over 25 years of experience in La Cañada Flintridge, I understand the importance of compassion and care. My my schedule is open. I dream of one day having a dog ranch where all furry friends are welcome, providing love and safety for those in need. With a genuine connection to animals that rivals human relationships, I'm excited to share my love and care with your beloved pets. Currently my schedule is open for pet care. I am able to care for pets during the day but I also can do overnights as well. I believe it’s most beneficial for your beloved pets to remain in their environment of their homes so that they can feel safe and secure.
“Kaitlynn was great-while I was away she walked my standard poodle each night! He loved it! She is a great communicator, and was flexible with pick-up location which was awesome. Highly recommend!”

About: Anyone can watch a pet. I build trust. For over 20 years, I've dedicated my life to understanding animal behavior—not just checking off a to-do list. From dogs and cats to birds, rabbits, reptiles, fish, guinea pigs, farm animals, seniors, puppies, and pets with medical needs, every animal receives patient, personalized, five-star care. Because the best pet care isn't just about showing up—it's about making them feel safe, understood, and genuinely loved. My flexible schedule allows me to provide reliable, personalized care when your pets need it most. I plan my days around each pet's routine, and for homes or pets requiring one-on-one attention, I have dependable childcare arranged so every visit receives my full focus and care. Your pet will be treated like family with personalized care, plenty of love, enrichment, playtime, walks, cuddles (if they choose!), and daily photo updates. My goal is to create a safe, low-stress environment where they feel happy, secure, and loved.

About: I have worked with dogs for 6 years, I own two dogs as well. A German Shepherd/Belgian Maliniois named Dex he is 5 years old and he has so much energy but is the biggest friendly fur ball. I also have a Cavachon named Dakota, he is 3 years old and he a couch potato inside and a dare devil outside. I work at a doggy daycare currently so I’ve worked with various breeds and I understand that you can not judge a dog based on breed. I also worked with temperaments and personality as well, I can manage the behaviors if walks are taking. I’m also in vet tech school so I’m currently learning more about dogs such as health issues and signs. My schedule is Monday through Friday during the day, with a mid-morning break that allows me to provide potty breaks and feedings if needed. I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable home for every pup in my care. Crates are only used for feeding if needed, and the rest of the time your furry friend is free to roam and relax. My home also has security cameras for added peace of mind. Your pup will enjoy walks, plenty of attention, and lots of love while they’re with me. I respect each pups routine and personality, and fresh water is always available to keep them happy and comfortable.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since i was 10. I also have experience with bunny’s and other livestock animals. I love animals and am working to become a veterinarian in the future. I’m currently working part time so i’ll have plenty of time to take care of your pets and their needs. I’m also available on the weekends. I can provide excellent care for your animal whether that be long walks, house sitting, or drop in visits. I’ll ensure your pet is safe and happy in my care!

About: I’ve always been an animal lover since I was a little kid. I as well have a 8 year old mini poodle mix that I love and care for. I am currently not working but I previously worked for Houston 911 for 4 years and then began working at a Chiropractic clinic for 5 years. I am taking time for myself and traveling more. I have returned to Houston and have plenty of time to spend with both dogs and cats as it’s a passion of mines. I have a fenced house, front yard, and backyard for my fur babies Charlie and Ryder. They are very playful and love being around other dogs. I am also able to separate them in different areas of the houses if your fur babies do not like to be with other dogs.

“Ace of course enjoyed his stay ! He was so excited . I loved getting the pictures and videos and seeing how happy he was with Emily and her family . They take such great care of him everytime .”

“Tisha was AMAZING. She constantly kept me updated with photos and videos of my baby while I was away and truly seemed to be engaged in his training and interests. She was also extremely flexible as I ran into some unexpected changes in my travel schedule. I would 1000% use her again and would recommend her to anyone who has a pet that needs that extra attention and LOVE.”

“I was overjoyed with the care Shyonda provided to my FurBaby!!! I received great communication and even some pictures and videos. I know that is always a bonus to have those extra perks from a sitter. She didn’t have to provide the pictures and videos but she did. When I picked him up he was happy to see me and I could tell he was NOT stressed. He was very content and looked well care for. I will DEFINITELY be using her service again!!”

“Lesly took great care of Pickles while I was away. She sent lots of photos and he was very happy when he returned home. Thank you, Lesly, for taking great care of him!!”

“Chanisy was amazing! My pup was very well cared for and happy during her stay. She was easy to get ahold of and communicate with and sent daily pictures of all Nikita’s activities. Will use her again!!”

“Savannah was amazing with Remi and Luna! This was my first time leaving them with a sitter, and she made the whole experience stress free. She kept me updated, sent photos, and took great care of both girls. I came home to two happy pups and couldn’t be more grateful. Highly recommend!”

“We’ve had such a wonderful experience with Claudia and Alexis. They’ve taken care of our dog twice now, and each time we’ve felt completely at ease knowing our pet was in such loving hands. They consistently send daily pictures and updates, which we truly appreciate. It makes being away so much easier. It’s clear they genuinely care for the animals they look after and treat them as if they were their own. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate dog sitter. We will absolutely continue using their services in the future!”

“Wonderful experience! We were nervous to leave our young dog while going out of town on short notice. We hadn’t had her very long and she is shy around strangers; on top of that she started her first heat and had her spay delayed. Needless to say, I was so nervous about having to be separated from her. Hannah and her family did a wonderful job watching our dog while we were out of town. We got pictures and updates several times a day. On our meet and greet, we got to check out the huge backyard and Hannah took special care to learn my dog’s routine, favorite toys, etc. Hannah even gave her a little bath when her fur got matted so that she would be more comfortable. When we went to pick her up, our dog felt so at home that she acted like she lived there! We give an A+ and will book again!”

“Wendy was THE absolute best!! She was very kind and accommodating!! I had complications happen with my move and at the last minute, she didn’t hesitate to keep my babies an extra day!! I highly, highly, HIGHLY recommend Wendy!! And, while I don’t often have a need, any time I do, she’s who I will go to 💕”


“Karen and her family was so great with my puppy. She even got him to start going outside instead of using puppy pads. She kept me informed with texts and pictures while I was away. I would definitely recommend her.”

“Kami is a true dog whisperer! My 2 German Shepherds just love staying with Kami and the attention she gives them. They had a wonderful time and we will look forward to their spending time with Kami again!”

“I boarded my fur baby Shadow with Jada. She is caring and engaging. She gave me frequent pictures, videos and updates throughout the day. Even took the boarded babies on an adventure. I'm so pleased that I found her. I will be booking with her again! Thank you so much, Jada for all you do.”

“We had an absolutely amazing experience! From the moment we met Jay, it was clear how much he truly cares about dogs. Our pup was so happy, comfortable, and well-loved the entire stay. We received regular updates, photos, and great communication, which gave us total peace of mind. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog—always the best sign. We will 100% be booking again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving sitter.”


“Erin and Josh were wonderful with Bailey! They made her feel welcome and provided a calm, comforting environment when she became a little anxious. Erin gave us updates everyday by text and sent photos and even a couple of videos. We are so glad we found Erin and Josh to care for our Bailey girl when we are away!”

“Rachel was great with responses & pics. My dog was so happy and had a great time with Holly & the fam. Will definitely use her again! Holly is a sweet Rottie & they played so well together. Thanks Rachel, fam & Holly for taking care of my girl!!”

About: I took care of my sweet black lab Winnie from puppy to senior. I know what it takes to love and care for a fur baby. I crate trained her, she lived in houses, and apartment with me through my 20’s and lived into loving my daughter. Who now wants to be a vet when she grows up. I am a teacher but also have my retired mom with me. We have not dedicated ourselves to a pet since the passing of my senior Labrador. I can commit to walking, playing, and someone being around 24/7 for your fur babies if you choose to board. I can crate your dog and having a large yard and country road for walking. I’m willing to go to dog parks. Whatever your pets needs are I can help with.
“Emily did an outstanding job with Ransas. I'd pick her anytime to take care of my baby. She's a very kind person and took such good care of my dog that I thought I might not get him back.”

About: I may be new to pet sitting, but I genuinely love animals and really want to help take care of your pets. I’m super responsible, eager to learn, and will treat your pets like they’re my own. I’m dedicated to giving them lots of love, attention, and care. You can trust me to be reliable and to make sure your pets are happy and safe while you’re away. I work part-time at a bakery 2 to 3 days a week, but I don’t work late nights — I get off around 7 PM. Since I’m not in school right now and doing online college, I have plenty of flexibility to care for your pets. You can count on me to provide responsible, loving care for your furry friends! In my own home, I make sure my pug is comfortable, fed, and given plenty of attention. I believe in sticking to their usual routines as much as possible, including regular feeding times, play, and walks if needed. If caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow their specific instructions to ensure consistency and comfort. I prioritize creating a safe, loving environment, whether that’s playing with them, giving them cuddles, or simply making sure they feel secure. No matter the location, my goal is to make pets feel loved, safe, and happy while their owners are away.
About: At my old apartment I used to dog sit and I have experienced the puppy stages to adult. During High school I used to be in FFA so I have some experience in farmhand. As of recently I’ve volunteered at shelters and it’s taught me the importance of patience, responsibility, how to read body language and much more.I’m currently trying to start college to study veterinary. I’m available Monday-Wednesday from 9am-8pm and Thursday-Saturday from 10am-5pm everyday. Sundays I take off unless of an emergency and you need me to watch your furbaby immediately. Whether your dog needs exercise and playtime, your cat needs calm companionship and litter box care, or your pets simply do best staying in their own home, I’m happy to help. I can assist with feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and giving your pets the attention and affection they deserve.
