Kaeli was very good with my doggo. She kept me up to date while we were gone and showed that she really cares. I’m hesitant to leave too good a review, in case she gets booked up and I can’t use her again. But she’s the best. Five stars.

It was a pleasure to have Mitzi pet sit at our house. It is obvious that she loves animals and they were very comfortable around her. Mitzi kept us updated with text and pictures all weekend. We would definitely ask her again in the future and trust her with our furry family!

Joanna is the best! She stayed with our dog for just under a week in our home and took the best care of her. Our pup has pretty severe separation anxiety and requires medication and Joanna made sure she was comfortable and cared for. Sent lots of pictures and daily updates. When we got home, our house was spotless and just as we left it. We will definitely be using her services again!

About: I want to point out first, I do work a full time job Monday-Friday and the hours are 7:30-4, so this is my side hustle! I wanted to be open and transparent before you book with me! I’ve owned dogs my entire life. I currently have a white lab/golden retriever mix that is just under a year old, her name is Maggie! I’ve taken care of friends and families pets since I was about 17. The animals I’ve watched have included dogs, cats, and guinea pigs! My favorites are my senior animals who just want to lounge but I love taking my younger ones to the park to play as well! I’m currently working full time during the week but available to pet sit or take care of them after work. I build in time to my daily schedule to accommodate walks, feeding time, and play time! I am more than happy to provide references from my other clients to help ease your mind. I also have experience in having to crate animals and keeping them separate if needed.

Ava was great! She is one of the best sitters I have had so far, she did exactly everything that I asked if her. I loved all of the picture she sent throughout the day and that made me feel at ease although I was 300 miles away. My apartment felt even cleaner than I left it! My cat was seemed happy and content when I came back - she wasn’t clingy at all like she didn’t miss me much lol. I would definitely ask Ava to sit my place again. Highly recommend her.

About: Hello! I’m Caton, and I genuinely love being around animals. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets with someone else, so I always try to create a calm, safe, and loving environment for every dog I care for. Whether your pup loves walks, playtime, cuddles, or just having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they feel cared for and comfortable while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands! I have a lot of patience for animals because I have a little Pomeranian of my own. Whether your dog is energetic or anxious, I’ll make sure I can give them all the care they need! I am currently working part time with a job that closes around 2PM daily. I am waiting on my new school semester; therefore, I do not have classes at the moment. I am pretty flexible when it comes to drop ins and sitting. I always strive to create a safe, calm, and loving environment for every pet I care for. Your dog’s comfort and safety are my top priorities, and I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, supervision, and care while you’re away. I’m happy to follow any routines or special instructions and will send regular updates/photos so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.

About: I have taken care of dogs of all different breeds and ages for several years. Most recently, I provided long term care for an elderly dog with high anxiety. She required extra patience and special care— two things that I would be able to provide your animal as well! I am available before or after work on weekdays for drop-in visits or walks. I am available full-time on weekends for the same two services. I offer updates to pet owners after every drop-in visit or walk. I prioritize safety and wellness with constant supervision and being mindful of my surroundings.

Donai did an amazing job caring for my babies! I have an eclectic mix of animals - a dog, a cat, and a bearded dragon. She came to meet everyone and really get to know them and their routines before her stay, and then provided updates throughout the weekend. I definitely recommend using Donai!

Jonah did a great job taking care of my 3 dogs on short notice. He spent the day with them and did such a good job with them. He kept me updated on how the day went and let me know how they were doing. I highly recommend him for any of your pet care needs.

About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life—ever since I was a toddler, there was always a dog or cat by my side. I have a special soft spot for dogs and cats, friends and family have trusted me to care for their furry family members while they’re away. I have hands-on experience with senior dogs, including administering medication with patience and care. I work full time but on weekends I’m free any time to walk or stay overnight with your 4 legged family members. During the week Monday - Friday I’d be available to walk your pup between 10:00am-12:30pm. I’ll be sure to care for your kitty or pup and all of their needs are taken care of. I’d be happy to uphold any routines or necessities while you’re away. I’ll be sure to give them all the love and care. Also feel free to let me know of any quirks your fur baby has.

About: I offer dog walking services and dog sitting services 7 days a week. I am open to all times but have more availability in the afternoon and evening. I have taken care of dogs for family and friends since I was a teenager and have taken care of up to 5 dogs in a single household at one time. While I’m not a licensed as a trained I have taught family and friends dogs potty training, leash etiquette and few other skills. I currently work full time, but I don’t have a set work schedule. I can make arrangements throughout the day with advance notice. Also am available all day on the weekends. I currently live in an apartment so I can not currently bring pets to my home. I do have a toy poodle named Bentley who enjoys our walks, playtime and especially treats. I like to be outside with the pets, I enjoy taking them to dog parks, playing fetch and letting them run around. I feel that a dog needs time to exercise everyday and I believe they should socialize with people and other dogs.

About: I’m someone who really shows up for people and their pets. I’m usually available last minute, and most of my experience has been built right here in my neighborhood over the past five years. I’ve taken care of more than 50 dogs during that time, many for long stays, and I’ve never had a single issue—just grateful owners and pets who remember me. I care for my mother part-time, and the rest of my schedule is wide open—so I have plenty of time and attention to dedicate to your animals. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I genuinely enjoy having that extra time with them. I know it’s a big deal to trust someone in your home, so I always communicate clearly, follow your instructions, and treat your space with total respect.

About: Hi! I’m a dedicated animal lover offering dog walking services for your furry family members. I’m a mom of four, with two dogs of my own—a German Shepherd and a Pomeranian—and two cats, so I’m very comfortable caring for animals of all sizes and personalities. We recently moved from California. I spent my time hiking twice a week with my dogs, alongside my cousin and her Doberman and cattle dog. Staying active and being outdoors is a big part of my life, and I love bringing dogs along! I treat my pets like family so I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for them. Whether your dog needs a quick walk, exercise, or just some companionship during the day, I’m here to help. My husband and I are currently in the process of buying a home, and I’m looking to earn a little extra income while doing something I love. If you’re looking for someone dependable, experienced, and truly passionate about animals, I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets! I am currently a stay at home mom. I will be available during the summer and our youngest will be starting kindergarten so my schedule is open to you and your pets needs for long term! I can come to your home, help administer medications, play with your pets and take them for walks. Available for occasional overnight stays if needed.
