About: I am a current college student with years of experience working with animals. I have mainly pet sat and done drop-ins with neighbor dogs and cats. I like taking the dogs to a dog park or hikes if the owners are comfortable. I am easy going and understanding of different circumstances. I am big on communication and want the best time for you and your pets. I am a college student with pretty much all hours of availability this summer both weekends and weekdays. I have a working car so I can satisfy most any schedule. In my clients' homes, I always want to fully communicate so I understand the boundaries and guidelines of the home and care of the pet. I want to ensure that the proper tasks are taken care of in a professional manner for both you and your pets.
“Ashley was very excited to take on the challenge of a Large Anxious Dog. Willow warmed up to her immediately, this was a great experience! Ashley followed all of our instructions with the food and medications, while still making sure Willow had plenty of time to play.”
About: I grew up with cats in my family and spent tons of time helping care for my friends' cats—including a home with 13 at once! I'm very comfortable with different feline personalities, whether your cat is outgoing and playful or shy and prefers quiet space. I offer patient, attentive care; reliable feeding; litter box maintenance; and daily photo updates.
About: I have 15 years of experience caring for all kinds of cats shy, playful, rescued, and senior. I love creating a safe and calm environment for them. I make sure they eat well, get companionship, enjoy playtime, and always feel cared for. I’m attentive to any signs of stress or discomfort, and I treat every cat as part of the family.
About: I’ve taken care of older dogs as well as puppies. I’m an outdoorsy person, love going to parks and taking my doggy nieces with me! Your dog will be engaged, played with and cared for. Walks- (M-F) after 6:00pm Saturday anytime Sundays after 2pm Drop in visits- only available on weekends anytime House sitting- available 7 days a week, for M-F I will be working 8am-5pm, Saturday and Sundays available all day I love to play, cuddle and pet. I also understand that not all dogs like that. Depending on the dog’s personality and body language, I’ll typically do whatever is more comfortable for them. I have a puppy niece that is very active and is high energy and loves to cuddle and my other doggy niece (an older pitty) prefers to be left alone and watch tv lol so I’m pretty adaptable.
About: I've always been a natural caregiver. I've had pets since I was born, took care of my grandmother in her final years, and I take care of patients of all ages everyday as a healthcare worker. My goal is always to look out for the underdog (pun intended). I work at a dental clinic nearby with nights, weekends, and every other Friday off. My 15 minute commute allows me to pop home if I need to let our pup out. I have plenty of time before and after work for walks and snuggles too! I have a fenced in backyard, a super laid back 9 year old lab mix, and two chill cats who pretty much keep to themselves. We have plenty of extra space for crating if need be! And if for some reason your furry friend needs and entirely secluded area, we can provide that as well.

“Thank you so much Miss Inqra, you are doing absolutely fantastic work with our two kitties, you were always on time, very communicative, overall we really couldn’t have asked for a better sitter than you! We would highly recommend Inqra to anyone looking for a reliable, loving pet sitter that will play with your pets and leave your home very neat? Then Inqra is your sitter! Thank you so so so so much again and for last minute help as well you’re amazing! We will definitely be rebooking again!”
About: I’ve had cats since I was a kid and I understand that cats aren’t one-size-fits-all—some want constant attention, while others prefer their space. I adapt my care to your cat’s unique personality and routine to keep stress to a minimum while you’re away.
About: I have had my own cat since I was 10 years old. He is basically my child and I treat him as such. I’ve had to administer flea treatment before and also bathe him every so often. My cat does not like bath time but I am decently skilled at giving baths to cats who are very dramatic during bath time. I have taken care of friend’s cats as well. I have had to administer medicated food to their cats. I deep clean litter boxes every so often to ensure the cats don’t get any infections. I also love playing with cats and making sure they get exercise if needed or just some stimulation!
“Amanda was amazing! She spent time with our girls and was communicative and prompt. She was flexible and helped us modify our booking when we had to cut our trip short due to illness. We absolutely would book again with Amanda for future needs!”
“Somaya is great! One of my doggos threw up and she was very responsive, gave great detail, and cleaned it up. Doggos is fine and she also followed up later in the night to confirm he was still okay. Def recommend!”
“Finding Melissa and having her help care for and pamper Sky during these days has been a true blessing. Both my cat Sky and my family clicked with her immediately. Melissa is incredibly loving and empathetic, as well as helpful and proactive. She kept us posted on everything. We are so grateful for her excellent support. The fact that she is bilingual adds even more value to her work. Thank you so much, Melissa! 🙏🏼”
“Alyssa is so very sweet and gentle with our furbabies. She’s lovely, uber-reliable (no reminders needed), and absolutely trustworthy! We appreciated communication with feedback about her visits and photos to see that our dogs were OK!”

“Tiffany was an absolute delight to book with!! From the very beginning, she was very prompt in her responses and answered any questions that I had. I am a newer dog mom, so she put me at ease due to her kindness and professionalism. She was very flexible with drop-off/pickup times, which I know can be tough for most. That was a huge plus! She also communicated throughout the day with updates and cute photos of my fur baby so I knew he was safe and well taken care of. If I could, I would give her 10/5 stars! I definitely plan to book with her again in the near future! Thanks again Tiffany!”

“m was incredibly accommodating and kind while caring for Sammi during daycare while I ran errands. Since Sammi is recently post-op, I was nervous about leaving her, but Jim was more than willing to learn exactly how to care for her and follow all of her special instructions. He was patient, attentive, and made me feel completely comfortable knowing she was in good hands. I really appreciated how understanding he was of her needs during recovery. I would absolutely trust him with Sammi again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for dependable and compassionate care”

About: I have had pets all my life. I started helping take care of my cat and dogs at around 10 years old. I help out with my friends and extended family members pets as well. My dog takes medication in the morning so I can administer medication if needed. She has also gone through two surgeries so I can help during pet recovery as well. I’ve had hyperactive dogs as well as territorial/ toy-aggressive dogs and know how to deal with them. I have also had dogs who needed extra care due to being old. I do know a little bit about training dogs but not much. I work part time and go to college full time. However, I live at home with my parents so I can fit pet care into my schedule. I have a fenced backyard for my dog to run around or just lay outside. I walk her 2/3 times a day and she gets fed twice a day, morning and evening. I also spend a lot of time with her whether it’s playing around or just watching tv. If I am caring for someone else’s pets, I feed the pets and play with them as well as hang out with them.

“I had the pleasure of having Lilly, walk my Dog Simon 3-4xs a week for 2 months. She was always punctual on timing and if she was ever running behind she would make sure to give a notice. Most importantly I enjoyed seeing Simòn happy upon her arrival, tail wagging through my Furbo Dog camera, she always greeted him with scratches and made sure to give him a treat before leaving. I appreciated the photos during the walks around the neighborhood or if Simòn was being lazy instead of ending the walk she would sit outside with him while he sun bathed giving him scratches. Lilly thank you so much for helping me out during this time!”
