Personalized care for your dog or cat - Tarpley

“Leslie was very considerate and conscientious about caring for Bandit. He was having some eating issues and she went out of her way to get him some choices. She made white rice for him, which calms his system. With my knowledge she tried several alternatives. I really appreciated her time and consideration. She was wonderful about keeping me informed about his day and diet. She texted daily, often a few times as we tried to find the best solution for my dog. I highly recommend Leslie as your Pup Sitter”

“Jack and his family were great! He kept me updated with pictures and tidbits about my dogs’ day. And he was flexible with my crazy holiday schedule. My dogs seem to have enjoyed their time with Jack and his family. I plan to book again in the future.”

“I have only great things to say about Tanya H. She was professional, responsible, and the communication was excellent. More important, my cat, usually a shy one, warmed up to Tanya right away. I appreciated the photos and videos she took because I could tell from my cat's body language she was doing well. Tanya will definitely be my first choice the next time I need someone to look in on my cat while I'm away.”

“Christine is amazing! She is punctual, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable. She was able to accommodate my last-minute request while I was in town visiting family and unexpectedly needed someone to care for my dog. I’m always nervous about leaving my dogs with someone new, but Christine immediately put my mind at ease. It was clear that she genuinely cared for my dog and treated him like one of her own. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”

About: I grew up on a small farm with goats, rabbits, chickens and other animals, and there was never a shortage of chores left to do! I have rescued and fostered several animals. I love to take care of all kinds of pets, big and small, and have experience with dogs, from puppy to senior citizen. I have one rescue senior boy, a Walker Coonhound, named Ranger Gus (Lonesome Dove), and a rescue purebred, with papers, white lab named Gronk. Ranger has all sorts of fun ailments, from needing pills to shots to now even wearing boots on his hind paws. So, I’m pretty sure I can handle anything now! Here to love on your fur babies and pets while you’re away. Cheers, Crystal I am available daily to support your fur babies. Right now I have moved home to be closer to my older parents and am not working full time. I am looking for some part time pet sitting / walking opportunities to help fill my time and support our small community. I love pets unconditionally, whether mine or yours, and will give them the best care possible. At this time, I have a full house of pets, and so am willing to come to your home to take care of your pet.

About: Hey there! I’m Kylie, and I absolutely love caring for animals. I’ve been pet sitting for years and I’m comfortable with all types of pets — energetic pups, senior dogs, big breeds, tiny breeds, shy cats, you name it. I enjoy going on walks, playing fetch, hanging out in the yard, and giving plenty of attention and affection. I follow feeding and medication routines carefully and always make pets feel safe and loved. I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure you get updates, pictures, and messages so you never have to wonder how things are going. I’m also tidy and respectful of your home. I’d love to take care of your pets next! Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I have a very flexible schedule. I’m able to adjust my days around your pet’s needs—whether that means morning walks, playtime throughout the day, or keeping a consistent feeding and care schedule. This flexibility allows me to be present, attentive, and reliable for your pets. I only care for pets in my client’s home, where they’re most comfortable and can stay in their normal routine. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walk routines, potty breaks, and any special care needs. I make sure your pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection, and I keep your home clean and treated with respect. I also stay communicative and send updates so you always know how your pets are doing.
