Ian is the best! Our girls loved him from first sight. We got great communication from him the entire time we were gone. The pictures he sent us captured their personalities which reinforced that we chose the best sitter for them! We were so happy to find Ian and will definitely be using him again. I highly recommend him!

Tessa is a gem. Loki loved her during the “meet and greet”, as she was playing with him and petting him. She followed our instructions and took excellent care of him. We look forward to the next time she can watch him!

About: I’ve had experience caring for horses, cats, and dogs. I have nursed many cats back to health in my youth on the farm. I have trained my two puppies and am happy to help in any way possible. I do have experience with diabetes and insulin injections. Senior care with blindness, deafness, and senility is something I’ve very familiar with as well. I am a stay at home dog mom of 3 and cat mom of 1 and have an open schedule to help care for your pets too. I am meticulously tidy and respectful of homes. I am honest and trustworthy and treat your home as I treat my own. My goal is to create a comfortable and happy environment while you’re away and for your pets to be as stress free as possible.

About: I've had pets my whole life and make it my goal to make animals feel loved. I have 2 cats of my own currently but grew up taking care of big dogs. I have plenty of free time and most of the time you'll find me laying in bed with my cats. My pets are my whole world and I work hard to make them feel loved. I provide them with love, food and water, bathroom needs, and entertainment. When I'm somewhere new, you'll find me looking for the nearest animal to pet.

Couldn’t be happier! She took such good care of my boys! I think they really would not have minded me being gone longer. Will definitely be asking her to sit for them again. She was great! Thank you so much!

About: Most familiar with cat care all the way from little kittens to senior cats. I do dog walks and dropin visits on the Wag app and have a perfect 5 star rating for every job I have done and am looking to expand my clientele here. I absolutely love being able to care for pets and see how happy they are when we go for walks or play fetch. I also dogsit my family's golden doodle who is learning tricks and has anxiety around people. I have a part time job and do contract work on my own schedule so I can fit pet care around my current schedule easily. I intend your home space to be the same as you left it when you return from your trip with a happy pet waiting for you.

About: I’ve had pets pretty much all my life. They each become a part of me and stay in my heart forever. I’ve had cats, dogs, fish, birds, and I have cared for them along with bunnies and snakes when I worked at the shelter. I love my pets dearly and will treat your pets with as much love. I currently have more open availability in the mornings so I would be able to check in on your pets for you while you run your errands or you’re at work. Give them the love and attention that you want to give them, but unfortunately aren’t able to. I wake up in the mornings and give my babies food and fresh water. Give them attention once they wake up a little bit. I check their bowls periodically when I’m home and change the water at night and give them a little more food before bed. Along with nighttime cuddles because house are important. I wake up in the morning and take care of my cats first thing. Get them food. I wash their water bowl out and get them fresh water. I give them attention after they wake up a little bit more. I pay attention to their body signs and try to give them what they need. I love and care for my pets and I will do the same for yours.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I were a sophomore in high school housesitting or taking dogs on a walk. My family and friends have relied on me and even have recommended me to others in need I’m currently working full time, but I am still available to house-sit or walk dogs after I get off work. I will have plenty of time after work to play with the dogs! I can crate your dog if needed. I will always make sure that if there isn’t a fenced in yard and the dog needs to go out, I will put a leash on it to make sure it doesn’t run off

About: I have had pets my entire life, and I've also helped friends and family care for their pets when they were away or otherwise unable to do so. Personally, I have three cats, three dogs, and one miniature parakeet. Animals, big and small, I love them all. I am a teacher, so my evening, weekend, and summer hours are very flexible. I am able to drop by to care for pets, can stay in your home if that works best for you, and can drop by for feedings, outdoor breaks, and walks. In your home, I will follow your directions to ensure that your pets have consistency and receive the care they need. Communication is a strong trait for me, and I will be sure to communicate with you about any questions that might arise.

About: Hi! I’ve been caring for animals since I was 12 years old and have experience with a wide variety of pets. I previously cared for an elderly woman’s boxer for two years, and I have pets of my own, so I understand how important it is to trust someone with your fur babies. I’m currently in college, so my availability varies depending on my class schedule, but when I’m with your pet, they’ll receive my full attention and care. I prioritize safety, consistency, and clear communication with pet parents. I love routine and making sure pets feel comfortable and secure. Your pet will receive regular meals, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of affection while you’re away. I’m attentive to individual needs and happy to follow any specific instructions you provide. I treat every pet like they’re my own 🤍🐾 I'm a stay at home mom so I have tons of availability. I'm enrolled in school but it's online so I'll have all the time for your babies! I live in an apartment so I don't have a fenced in yard, but we have PLENTY of yard to burn energy in. I love going for walks and playing catch with the fur babies so they will have plenty of outside time. If they're couch potatoes I allow animals on all furniture and I love the cuddles they give. Anything you want, will be done!

Pet care fits into my daily or weekly routine because I am at home and I am excited to start taking care of other peoples pets. On the weekends at the moment I can fit in some later shifts, it is not listed, however I can. I will care for your pets the way you want me to take care of them. Tell me what you want me to do, and I will do it. These are your babies. I want to learn everything about them and care for them the way you care for them.
