About: I’d make an excellent dog sitter because I bring energy, attentiveness, and a genuine love for animals into everything I do. Even without formal experience, I’m highly responsible and quick to learn, which means I’ll carefully follow any instructions to keep each animal happy, healthy, and on their routine. I’m naturally patient and observant, so I can pick up on personality and needs with confidence! Whether that means playful energy, calm companionship, or extra care and reassurance. Most importantly, I truly enjoy spending time with animals, and I would treat every pet like my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and excited while their owner is away! I am currently working part time and going to school part time. I am free most days and want to still remain productive in any way I can. I ensure cleanliness and safety when it comes to being in someone’s home. I love to clean and tidy up whenever I can! As an introvert, I love quietness so noise isn’t something I emit a bunch of.

About: I grew up on a farm with many animals and have always been responsible for my own animals. I have 20+ years of experience caring for animals as well FFA experience and veterinary science classes. I work 10 hour days Wednesday-Saturday but still have time before and after work to care for animals. On my days off I am very active and go on hikes or walks almost every day. I have one cat in my home that gets along great with other animals. I am very caring and attentive to all of my animals. They will get a lot of attention and I am a very active person that likes to take long walks and hikes daily.

“Whitney was amazing. It was so nice to be able to go on vacation and know my babies were well taken care of. She was great with both my senior cat and my newer kitten. I definitely recommend Whitney if you need cat care.”

About: I’ve been a dog owner all my life. My mud room and side yard is used solely for the care and comfort of my dogs. Including dog bath, doggy door, beds, etc. We also have over an acre of property that is available for supervised play time. I consider myself a dog person and generally keep the dogs as my constant daytime companions. My dogs love to lay in their fluffy beds by the pellet stove and be with us when we are home. It would be my pleasure to include your dog in our family and dog centered daily activities. I am happy to work on basic training with your dog. Sit, stay, lay down, fetch, home manners, etc. I do not believe in any kind of “spanking” or hitting of any animals. Consistency and positive reinforcement is my philosophy. Please feel free to reach out with any special requests for the care of your dog. I promise nothing is too large a request. I especially don’t mind puppy training.

“I greatly appreciated Susan’s diligent care of my elderly dog over the Thanksgiving holidays. It’s hard to leave a beloved pet over the holidays, but I could tell by Susan’s daily messages that I didn’t need to worry. She walked him twice daily which he loves. He even seemed to eat better for her than he does for me! I will definitely use her again.”

About: Hi, I’m Kayana! - Certified belly rub specialist 😊 I’ve cared for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities for as long as I can remember. As an animal lover, I treat every pet like part of my own family. Animals have always been a huge part of my life and I genuinely love getting getting to know each of your little loved ones. I bring hands-on experience, caring for dogs and other pets with a wide range of needs. I’m extremely comfortable following all detailed care instructions, maintaining consistent routines, and handling medications when needed. You can expect clear communication, timely updates, and dependable care every time. From energetic puppies to senior pets who need a gentler touch, I’m patient, attentive, and focused on keeping them safe, comfortable, and happy. Hope to meet you and your pets soon! 🤍 I currently work a full time 8-5 Tuesday-Saturday, however, I do still have flexibility in my work routine. Outside of work, my schedule is very much open to meeting the needs of your fur babies! I understand how important it is to feel confident leaving your pet with someone new. Rest assured, safety, and trust come first in everything I do. I create a calm, safe space where pets can relax. I follow routines carefully, stay alert during walks and visits, and provide a secure and loving environment. I respect your home, communicate, clearly, and make sure you always feel confident that your pet is in great hands.

About: I'm a dog lover who's been caring for dogs since I was 10. My first boxer was with me from when she was a puppy, and I handled everything—walks, feeding, playtime, baths, and even taking care of her paws when she got cuts. We later adopted another boxer, and I gave her the same love and attention, including medical care when needed. I really enjoy taking dogs for walks and making sure they’re happy and well-cared for. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like their own, I’d love to help. I work full-time, but during my spare time, I would love to care for your dog. I’m available on weekdays after 6 PM, and I have flexible availability on weekends. I'll take care of your pet in your home, following your instructions to make sure they're comfortable. I’ll keep things clean, respect your space, and keep you updated.

About: I have taken care of my dog since he was a puppy and my brothers do for about 4 years. I also work at a doggy day care and am around all sorts of dogs and understand body language. I work mostly on the weekends. I am most available to spend the most time with your pet during the week. I have school but no more than 2 hours a day. I provide attentive and reliable pet care either in my home or in the client’s home, depending on their preference. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, exercise, playtime, and any specific care instructions. I make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and well-cared for by giving them plenty of attention and maintaining a clean environment. If caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space, keep everything tidy, and ensure the pet experiences minimal disruption to their normal routine. I am also comfortable administering medications if needed and monitoring pets for any changes in behavior or health. My goal is to provide a stress-free experience for both the pet and the owner.

“Thank you Tessa. You did a great job walking Luna 4 times yesterday. I love that you text me and sent pics every time. I was so impressed and confident with your professionalism and we look forward to our next booking with you. Very Highly Recommended.”

About: I have hands-on experience working as a veterinary technician, where I learned safe handling, medication administration, basic first aid, and how to keep pets calm in new or stressful situations. That background helps me confidently care for puppies, seniors, pets with medical needs, and shy or nervous animals. Outside of clinical work, I’ve grown up caring for family pets. I’m patient, gentle, and attentive — whether your pet needs enrichment and long walks, or quiet cuddles and routine comfort. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my priority. I currently have a very open and flexible schedule, so I’m able to match your pet’s routine — whether that means early walks, midday visits, or cozy evenings at home. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I treat every pet with patience, respect, and the same level of care I’d want for my own. When I’m caring for pets in their home, I follow their established routines — feeding schedules, walks, training cues, boundaries, and any house rules. I make sure doors, gates, and crates are secured, and I always keep a close eye during outdoor time or new environments. At my home, pets have a calm, clean space where they can relax, play, or cuddle depending on their energy and personality. I’m attentive during introductions, supervise closely, and provide plenty of enrichment, exercise, and affection. Whether your pet needs structure and long walks or quiet time and a soft place to nap, I’m committed to keeping them safe, happy, and comfortable.

About: What sets me apart is the level of attention and care I provide. I keep a calm, clean home and limit the number of pets I board at one time so each pet gets plenty of individual attention. I focus on maintaining your pet’s normal routine, providing a low-stress environment, and keeping you updated with daily photos and check-ins. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for — not just watched. Because I work from home full time, your pet will receive plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship while you’re away. Plenty of outside time and cuddle time! When pets stay in my home, they’re treated like part of the family. I maintain a clean, calm environment and limit the number of pets I care for at one time so each animal receives plenty of attention. I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and bedtime. Because I work from home full time, pets are rarely left alone and receive consistent supervision and companionship. I also provide daily photo updates and check-ins for peace of mind. When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on maintaining consistency and comfort. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding routines, walks, medications if needed, and any household preferences. I’m respectful of your home and ensure your pet feels safe and relaxed while keeping you updated with photos and detailed check-ins after each visit.

“Jessica was supper helpful watching our 95lb golden retriever while we were away for a week. She was super flexible and was able to even help us twice a day! Will use in the future.”

About: I have hands on experience working at a doggy daycare, where I cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. In addition to dogs, I have experience handling and caring for cats and small animals, including rodents. Pet care is an important and fulfilling part of my weekly routine. I work a job, so I’m fully available on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. If there is a change, I will notify you. On the other days, I can provide care between the hours of 7- 10 PM. I make sure to plan my schedule carefully, so both of our schedules align and so I can give pets the time, attention, and consistency they need. When caring for pets in their own home, I make it a priority to keep them comfortable by following their usual routine... feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and more. I give them as much love and affection as I would my own, always aiming to keep their tails wagging, etc. I treat every home with respect and make sure it stays secure and clean. I also send regular updates and photos to the owners so they can feel at ease, knowing their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for.

About: Animals bring me peace and joy and I just can't help but want to be around them to support them. I have raised dogs and other animals throughout my life. I have had cats, fish, hamsters, and even hermit crabs. Animals are always full of life and hope. I have two dogs now. A mother and daughter. It really shows me how deep animals can feel. I love them. Pet sitting is my priority. I spend 24/7 at home unless I am at the park or running errands. I can devote ample time to pet care. I have a fenced yard and two small dogs. They go for walks, trips to the park, as well as off road fun. Like hiking, kayaking, and trail walks.

“Thank you, I was very satisfied hope to work with you again in the future.”
