About: I have owned fur babies a majority of my life and love caring for them. For the 3 years, I volunteered as an in home foster for a local dog rescue and have experience with anything from the shy/timid personalities to the energetic playful personalities that these babies have. I have my own dogs who welcome other 4 legged visitors and enjoy running around the house and yard playing....but they also enjoy cuddling and nap time. I have a fenced area in my front yard where they can enjoy fresh air and lay in the sunshine. Your pets will be loved on and pampered while here. I have experience in giving medications as I have had to medicated some of the fosters that’s i have had. I do have crates available for those who need it. I work from home so they would not be left alone for long periods and would be taken outside frequently. I currently work from home so the fur babies would not be left for long periods. My daughter lives with me and helps care for the dogs. I have 2 small fenced areas in my yard but I do not leave any dog outside alone. I also have fences and crates available for inside for nights and when I have to run errands.
“Emily is great! She was very attentive with our cats and they warmed up to her quickly. She loves animals and took great care of them while we were out of town. We def noticed a difference when we came home vs leaving them alone or just having a neighbor check on them. Would def recommend Emily and book her again!”
About: I have had pets for many years and pet sat for friends and family! I have experience with senior pets all the way to puppies. I have always loved being around pets of all descriptions!

I will be available to visit with animals and take them on walks, if appropriate. I will be able to play with animals or just sit and love on them!!

About: I have been taking care of pets for 40 years. I have experience with both large and small breeds. I am patient and realize that each pet has it's own personality and needs. I also sit for dogs on deployment which is a pet sitting service for military pets in need while their parents are deployed. I absolutely enjoy being around pets and that shows in my interaction with them, I talk to them and play with them so they are not only getting the attention they need but also using up the extra energy they may have. I will take care of your pet as if it was my own because I realize that they are an integral part of your families and are like children. I work from home so I can be at your pets disposal at all times. I alternate every few hrs of playtime to a rest time so pets aren’t overly stimulated I have a fenced in yard so I allow them to just run off leash and interact with each other or with my two dogs .
“I recently hired Lauren to care for my two parrots and cat while we were away for the holiday, and I was very impressed with her service. She communicated regularly and ensured my pets were well taken care of throughout our absence. When a temperature alarm went off in my home, she responded immediately and handled the situation with great professionalism. My pets were happy and healthy upon my return, and the house was just as I left it. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and responsive pet sitter.”
About: I have house sit for a couple people, one recently before I came to college was an older dog and a cat. Cleaned all messes and made sure pets were always fed and walked. Back home, I have 4 cats and 1 dog. I love all pets and treat all like my own, I grew up with many cats and dogs. I just want to help out people who don’t always have enough time or need some help. Thank you. I am currently working a work study at CCC from 2pm-6pm the latest during the week. I am free on the most weekends. I play basketball for CCC so sometimes we have games, I would always let you know before hand if I can’t come and refund you. I have house sat before for one of my mom’s friends and she left me specific instructions because they were on diets and I completed them with no problems. Cleaned litter boxes, went for walks, they were gone on a cruise so it was a few days of house sitting. That’s where I really found this love for helping others take care of their pets and watch the house.
About: Hi! My name is Madalyn and I love your pet already. From taking care of fish, hamsters, cats, dogs, horses, goats, and more, I have a wide set of skills and abilities that I will use to make sure your pet feels the most loved and cared for they possibly can. I understand how important your pets are to you, as an animal lover myself. I have a flexible schedule and will communicate directly with you to fully understand your needs. The love to love on your fur babies and make the process as smooth as possible for you.

Reach out and let’s make it work! :) I take a pet-specific approach to each opportunity I am given. I like to “get on their level” and learn what makes them most comfortable. As a long time per owner myself, I know that what may work for one furry friend, might annoy another. Each dog, cat, reptile, hamster, and anything else you can think of (yes, even fish!) has their own personality and quirks. That’s what makes pets so special. I also like to communicate very directly with the owner in regards to their desires when taking care of their pets. After all, you know best.
