About: Lifelong pet lover experienced with large dogs. Patient, compassionate care tailored to your dog's unique needs, ensures they feel safe, happy, and loved every time. I understand that every dog has its own personality and pace, and I’m here to make sure they are cared for when you can’t be there. Whether it’s daily walks, sitting, or a check-in, your dog will be treated like family. I have taken care of dogs since I was young, including senior dogs that might need more care. I’m a working professional that works from home and has a flexible schedule to take care of your pets. I am available weekends if give some notice. I make sure my cat is taken care of regularly and spoiled with treats and wet food. She gets her okay time! My neighbors trusted me to walk their dogs and feed them during vacations.

About: I have many years of quality animal experience, starting with caring for my own family farm animals when I was small. I quickly grew a passion for animal care - caring, training and competing with a myriad of animal species throughout my teenage years. I routinely provided in-home and on-farm care for local family pets and animals and I learned many valuable skills from basic care to emergency care and wound management and perhaps even more importantly, animal behavior - how to work with an animal’s unique personality and tendencies rather than against it. These skills I’ve used in my adult life as I continued working with animals and in the veterinary medicine field as an assistant. Now, as I continue my education and further my professional life, it is my goal to bring my experience into the lives of pets that need love and care while their owners are away! I’m currently a student and working part-time, so while I will do my best to be flexible for the needs of your pet, I cannot provide full-time (live-in) care. I can do regular drop-in visits and spend ample time with your furry friend during the week days and weekends. I may occasionally be available for more extensive weekend pet-sitting, so if you need it, feel free to ask and I’ll do my best to accommodate! Help me give your pets the routine they are used to with detailed instructions of how and when you normally care for them! Typically, I prefer to give your pet care every four hours to ensure they are staying busy and quiet while you are away. I can adjust this schedule as needed. I feed and water as needed and determined by you and am able to give medication. I will gladly care for young to senior animals.

“Olivia was an amazing sitter for our 3 dogs!! We were out of town for a long weekend, and she took great care of our pups and home. One of our dogs is especially wild, and Olivia handled her perfectly. She sent photo updates and respected our house and left it the same as we had left it! Any questions I had about the pups’ behavior while gone were answered promptly. We will definitely reach out to her again when we go out of town next!”


“Abigail has watched our two dogs multiple times. She is very good at keeping us up to date. When we cancelled flight she was very flexible in being able to help us. Highly recommend.”


“Corbin treated my dog Tyson, as if he was his own. I felt extremely comfortable leaving Tysons care in Corbin’s hands. I got updates and pictures everyday. I’ll deff use Corbin again in the future.”


About: have extensive experience in pet care such as daily care, feeding, and training and loving for various types of animals. I try to be very knowledgeable about different breeds and their specific needs, ensuring that each pet receives personalized attention. I also monitoring pets' health, administering medications when necessary, and creating a safe and nurturing environment. My commitment to their well-being and happiness. I have a dog myself and I love the interactions we have together. I just understands when she needs to potty, play and eat! By learning off her body language helped me read other dogs as well and i just love spreading my love to them. Caring for pets at my home or in a client's home involves several key tasks to ensure their well being. This includes providing a balanced diet and fresh water, ensuring they get regular exercise like walking dogs or playing with cats, and maintaining their grooming needs such as brushing fur. I monitor their health by watching for any changes. Creating a safe and comfortable environment with cozy bedding and safe toys is crucial, along with spending quality time interacting with them to keep them mentally and emotionally healthy. These steps help ensure pets are happy and well cared for.

About: I always been around dogs and animals my whole life and since I was really young I’ve owned a dog and have been taught how to take care of them. I’ve taken care of dogs of friends and family including dogs as young as a new puppy and as old as 13 years old. I would take close attention if there were any special details aswell. I am currently in college studying business and marketing. I am usually available most days a week and will always put animals before myself. I am trying to get more of a solid job soon, so availability may change soon. I always make sure that there is nothing of danger laying around in my house and in close reach of the dogs. And I would take the same care for another persons house as I would with my own, including keeping it clean and safe.

Grace H.
“Grace has a natural connection with animals that's clear whenever you see them interact. They treat every animal as if he/she was their own, and in the time I have known Grace they have always remembered feeding schedules, bathroom times, and play time with the animal they are taking care of. They also pay attention to specific traits of the animal, such as their favorite treats, favorite toys, things they like to do and don't like to do. I would trust Grace to take care of my pet for any amount of time.”
