“Don’t hesitate to contact Tomoko for all your pet sitting needs! She is wonderful — prompt, professional, communicative, and great with animals. We absolutely trust her with our dog and can’t wait to hire her again.”

About: We are not ready to own a pet full time just yet but I would love to help other owners with their pets. I do have children my youngest being 6 so they do have to be children friendly but I also have a safe space your pet can be separate from them when they want or need to be. I grew up with all different types of animals my whole life as well as worked taking care of, full time, a rescue that consisted of 16 cats, 5 dogs and 5 horses. So I am very familiar with animals and their needs. This is the first time I have not had a pet in my life which is why I decided to join this app. Hope to see you and your pets soon!! I am a licensed real estate agent and mother to three beautiful children. I am available at various times to watch and care for your pets. I love to be outdoors and going for walks. I live in an apartment complex, in the building that sits in the back. I have open space and an outdoors community area where your pet can go for a walk or use the bathroom. I also am comfortable working in others homes with respect to their belongings and personal preferences.

“I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with Emin. He was very responsive and even hiked with Lila in the rain! Has a very calm energy and handled my dog’s intensity very well”

“Francesca was great! We met her for a meet & greet and she was very kind and got along great with our frenchie, Birdie. She came over for an hour to feed, walk and hang out with her. We really appreciated her detailed notes and great photos. She even brought in our packages, which was so nice. We definitely recommend her and will be booking her in the future!”

About: Currently helping to raise a 12 week golden doodle with my partner. Also helped raise a miniature pinscher mixed beagle that is currently 10 years of age since she was a puppy. Currently working a versatile job in the fashion industry as my schedule is quite open. Lots of free time to give attention to these loving animals. Currently living in a dog friendly neighborhood called Lakeside Apartments. Check their website out as they have a dog bath and even a park. Also love to go outside even during the winter.

About: I've taken care of dogs for a long time. Extended family members have dropped off their pets with me when they are away on holiday. I enjoy playing with them. I work from home so your pet will have supervision at all times. Typically I walk my dog, Mochi, once in the morning. Sometimes I play fetch with her around noon if she's up for it. I feed her on schedule daily. I have a large fenced yard and one friendly dog who will enjoy a playmate, as you may see in the first photo of Mochi with the pavers and grass. I make sure that there is always fresh water available for Mochi and that she gets regular outdoor breaks.

“Elizabeth is so communicative and very understanding of Gremi’s needs as a tripod. I also appreciate how she made adjustments to make Gremi feel comfortable on her first walk with her. Gremi had a great time!”

“Highly recommend Barbara! We have a very shy senior dog that will not take to most people and Barbara is wonderful with her.”

About: I'm a former clinical research nurse coordinator dealing with human patients for 20 years before becoming disabled. I have had pets all of my life. I have adopted several cats and dogs from the humane society including a 3 legged Siamese cat who was a Siamese twin that surgically separated from his sister leaving them both with 3 legs. I have trained several my dogs including a temperamental Dalmatian mix. I currently have a 13 year old Chihuahua/American Eskimo mix, who has Cushing's Disease that is on medication twice a day, a 9 year old Rat Terrier/Toy Poodle mix and an 8 year old black short haired cat that loves snuggling. My little dogs love to play what I call trick or treat. The kitty loves to play fetch the hair elastic and fishing. I have recently started pet sitting for a cat in the neighborhood. I've always loved animals and as a child I wanted to be a veterinarian. I am a former clinical research nurse with 20 years of nursing experience who has been on disability for 10 years. I lost my husband to pancreatic cancer 4 years ago and I now am looking to supplement my income by working with animals and giving and receiving unconditional love. I make sure that the pets are fed, have water, and go potty, (which means cleaning up after them.) Of course play with and walk the dogs. I would come to your home at intervals of 1, 2 or 3 times a day or if you or if you need I can stay at your home to care for your pet.

About: What sets me apart is my deep understanding of dog behavior and needs, developed through years of experience and ongoing education. I’m not just a sitter, but a true dog lover who is passionate about ensuring every dog I care for feels safe, happy, and understood. I tailor my care to each dog’s unique personality, whether it’s working with puppies to build solid training foundations, or providing gentle, specialized care for senior dogs. I’m experienced in managing behavioral issues, offering enrichment activities, and creating a calm, structured environment that keeps dogs engaged and relaxed. My goal is to not only care for your dog but to enrich their life while you’re away. I provide these services professionally. This isn’t a part time gig out of my apartment or parents home just to earn a few $$ here and there. I’ve dedicated my entire home, career and life towards making sure my /your furballs are taken care of the way nature intended. A love for dogs and cats can only take you so far, the rest falls on one’s knowledge, skills & experience, all of which I personally look for when considering someone with whom I will entrust the lives of the most important members of my family. Pet care is at the heart of my daily routine. I dedicate my entire day to giving dogs the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. From walks and playtime to ensuring they’re fed and comfortable, I tailor each day based on the individual dog’s needs. Whether it's a relaxing afternoon or an active outing, my priority is making sure every dog feels happy, safe, and loved throughout the day. I take great pride in creating a safe, comfortable environment for each dog, whether it's in my home or theirs. Safety always comes first, in the form of securing the space, monitoring playtime, and ensuring all pets are properly supervised. I always take the time to understand each owner’s preferences and routines, making sure their dog feels at ease and well-cared-for. By sticking to feeding schedules, using specific training techniques, or providing extra cuddles for dogs who need it, I tailor my care to fit each dog’s individual needs and the owner's expectations. When asked, pet owners love the feedback I offer them.

About: Since childhood I’ve cared for dogs — mine and others’, have extensive experience, and would be happy if you trusted your pet to me! I’ve had a Golden Retriever and a Staffordshire Terrier; I’m experienced in care, feeding, training, play, development, basic grooming, and daily dog needs. I’m available for weekday walks from 9 AM to 5 PM. Weekend and holiday walks are possible by prior arrangement, as I’m not always available. Unfortunately, I can’t care for pets in my home, as my building doesn’t allow animals. But I’ll gladly look after your pet elsewhere if needed.

About: I am a lover of all animals and have experience taking care of mine, neighbors, friends and family members' dogs, cats, and even bunnies! I have experience walking, feeding, and bathing dogs and love helping pets feel loved and cherished. I would love to care for and love on your pet while you're away! I am currently available on the weekends and hope to broaden my availability in the near future. Caring for pets is something that I enjoy doing and am sure to make time for. I have a 3 year old dog and I currently live in Montrose, CA which is close to parks and great hiking trails for your 4 legged child to enjoy. I will take it slow with your four-legged baby to build trust and make sure he/she is comfortable with me before going on a walk or bringing them home with me for daycare/boarding. Your pet's safety is my priority as we interact together.

About: I have been working with animals since childhood, starting with my volunteer work at Kitty Bungalow Rescue for cats! Two years ago I rescued my service dog, my standard poodle Elm, who comes with me on all of my adventures. He is trained, loves other dogs, and very friendly. I would love to help you (and your furry family members) out! I work flexibly and remotely, so I am able to give your pets undivided attention for the entire day. I can be available weekdays or weekends, for a quick dog walk or a long term overnight sit! Aside from being a pet lover I also have experience in cleaning Air BnB's, so I know how to keep a home clean! I'm available for any home-related chores or tasks that you'd like done if I'm sitting at your house.

About: I absolutely love dogs. I've grown up with dogs all my life, sometimes with 5 in the house at a time. Along with taking care of my own dogs, I began dog sitting and dog walking for family members and family friends when I was 15. I love making dogs happy, getting them out of the house on walks, playing tug of war with them, or just cuddling on the couch. I am a full time college student taking mainly online classes so I have a good amount of availability. I am available Monday-Friday mainly all day, for the weekends I have limited availability but I can always be flexible. I think being respectful of what your boundaries are is most important. Every owner and pup is different and I can adapt well to the different needs for each one. I believe that being gentle and patient is a necessity when it comes to pet care. When walking or caring for your pet I will hold the upmost care for them.

“Julie is very thorough and caring. She took time out of her schedule before our arranged booking to stop by and go over the nuances of Yzma’s harness, the location, etc. She communicates clearly and in a timely manner, and I definitely recommend her and would use her again”

About: I have been having dog for 20 years. I also have hard time to find dog sitting when I go out of town. I want to help someone who has same difficulty as I. I love cuddling with dog therefore if your dog needs it. I prefer boarding during the weekend rather than weekdays. There is pretty safe and quiet walking route around my neighborhood. If your dog needs excercise a lot, I could make them satisfied. I am easy to communicate with mobile device and I kind of know what dog owners are expecting. I would not accept old and sick dog because of liability. I also prefer to take care of pet within my neighbor area. You would not be disappointed. Thank you

“She took great care of my 85lb Great Pyrenees while we were gone. She stayed in touch during the entire time we were gone and I left very safe leaving my dog and house with Raleigh. I would definitely ask her to help with my pooch!”
