I had Anna watch my golden doodle, Bane, for the past two days, and she was absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond to make sure Bane was happy, well-fed, and got plenty of playtime and exercise. I truly appreciated her dedication and the extra time she spent with him. overall, it was a five-star experience, and I would highly recommend her!

We were SO glad we found Erica to watch our pets while we were away. During the meet and greet we knew she would be perfect - her calm, kind, and loving demeanor was perfect for our pets. She sent pictures and updates every day, and went above and beyond to make sure our home and everything in it was well taken care of. We will definitely book her again in the future, and would recommend her to anyone searching for a pet sitter.

About: I have more than 3 years of pet care experience, including caring for cats and dogs. I also have a 3.5-year-old small dog of my own, so I know how much love, patience, and attention pets need every day. I am happy to help with feeding, walks, playtime, and giving your pet a safe, caring, and comfortable experience. As a college student, I’m usually available whenever I’m not in class. I have a flexible routine, so I can spend quality time with your pet, and I’m also home most of the time during breaks and holidays. Since I currently offer visits in my client’s home, I focus on keeping pets safe, relaxed, and comfortable in their usual environment. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions and make sure pets get the care, attention, and routine they need.

About: I have experience with many different breeds of dogs as well as different species of animals other than dogs and cats. I have walked/watched great danes, pit bulls, labradors, and mixed breeds to name a few. As for the other species I have taken care of/owned I feel comfortable with reptiles, birds, small animals, fish, and spiders. I am always open to learning about and caring for different species of animals and breeds if dogs or cat! I have the summer off from college so I have a bunch of free time I hope to fill with caring for dogs and other animals! For the animals in my hone and past pets my big rule is respect. If the animal is experiencing a strong emotion or needs something I will always respect it. Animals have their bad days too! As for caring for pets on this app, that basic respect rule will still apply. I always make sure to not only respect your animal but also your home.

About: I’ve had a drive to care for animals my entire life! I grew up with dogs and mostly cats and would dog-sitting for family members anytime they needed! I’ve always known that I wanted to work with animals when I grew up but veterinary care would make me too sad as it physically pains me to see sad and hurt animals:( I also have a history with horses and competing! I spent a summer(2023) in Louisiana volunteering at a barn where retired racehorses would get sent to rehab, retrain, and eventually rehome! I would spend all day helping rehab the horses! I worked at PetSmart both in the store as a PetCare Specialist and in the Grooming Salon as a Professional Bather! During my time there I realized how much I love making pets and their parents happy and a little more healthier! I loved talking with pet parents and educating them while also hearing about their furry babies! Nothing made me happier than seeing one of my clients walking in - tail wagging! I have a dog and a cat of my own! My dog is a mini Australian Shepherd whom I have trained myself! He loves to do agility training! I also groom him myself! I rescued my cat from the side of a freeway when he was a little kitten. He’s had some medical issues regarding his bladder so I’m well rounded with cat care and administering medicine! My cat is now my little Velcro kitty who always wants to be involved in what I’m doing! I’ve worked with all kinds of dogs- big and small! While I normally don’t have a preference between the two, I am currently pregnant with my first so I’m only really able to physically handle small/medium dogs for the time being. As a pet mom myself, pet care is a daily routine for me! I am a stay at home wife (soon to be mom) and spend most of my days spoiling my dog and cat! I’m new to the area so I don’t really have much that gets me out of the house and I absolutely love being around animals so I figured why not try to fill my time by helping other pet parents out who may not have as much time on their hands as I do! I’m very flexible with scheduling and last minute bookings so never hesitate to reach out! During my time working in the PetSmart grooming salon, I became very used to nervous and anxious dogs as grooming time can be very stressful for pets! I’d say I’m pretty good at recognizing anxious behavior and doing my best at making pups more comfortable! I also understand how nerve wracking it can be to trust someone with your pet - especially someone new! I have had an experience in the past that left me traumatized when it comes to leaving my pets in someone else’s care. So I too understand that overwhelming need to check in on your baby and make sure everything is going well! I promise you, as someone who has been on the other end, I am always welcoming to multiple check in texts, long lists, picture requests, and the need for as many details as possible! I’m someone who likes to feel sure in what they’re doing so if I have any questions or concerns- they will be brought up immediately. I never like to assume because there’s always a chance I could be wrong, so I like to get all the details!

About: I’ve been a pet sitter for two years but have owned dogs for my whole life. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, from playful pups to sweet seniors as well as reactive dogs. I also have experience giving oral meds! I’m happy to follow your dog’s routine and adjust my schedule so they feel safe, happy and right at home! I usually do two walks a day, one in the morning and one at night with meals right after. Their paws are washed and dry after every walk so they can relax on the couch and bed right after 💕 Before bed, I gently clean their eyes and brush their teeth. During the day, we’ll play, use lick mats to keep their minds busy, and enjoy lots of belly rubs and snuggles. Before they go home, i’ll give them a bath and good brushing so they come back to you clean, fluffy, and extra huggable! I will treat your pup like my own. I keep a calm, safe, and pet-friendly space to help them feel at home. My male partner also helps out on weekends to make sure your dog is always well cared for 😊

About: Dogs have been a huge part of my life for over 20 years. As a dedicated dog owner and long-time volunteer with animal organizations, I've cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities. I understand that every dog is unique and deserves patience, attention, and genuine love. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, playtime, companionship, or a comfortable place to stay, I treat every dog as if they were my own. My goal is to provide a safe, stress-free, and loving experience while giving pet parents peace of mind. I pride myself on being dependable, attentive, and communicative, and I truly enjoy building lasting relationships with both dogs and their owners. I can't wait to meet your furry family member! I work from home, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, and companionship throughout the day. Your dog won't be left alone for long periods and will have someone nearby to monitor their needs, provide potty breaks, walks, and lots of affection. Caring for dogs fits naturally into my daily routine. I provide a safe, loving environment with a fully fenced yard for supervised play and exercise. Since I work from home, your dog will get plenty of attention, potty breaks, and companionship throughout the day. I follow each pet's routine closely and keep owners updated with photos and messages for peace of mind.

About: My 16-year-old Pomchi bestie, Stella, is a testament to my care. I have been feeding, bathing, and loving her since I was 17 years old, and she is still doing great in her senior years. I am also a masters-level clinician in behavior health as a behavior analyst (BCBA). Because of this, not only am I well-versed in behavior change, positive reinforcement, and navigating challenging behaviors, but I've also had the honor of working with families of diverse backgrounds, including neurodiverse and LGBTQIA+ families :) I'm taking some time off from my usual work as I wait for my out-of-state licensing to process for a fully remote position. This means that I have lots of free time this summer. Help me get out of the house before playing Fortnite for 8+ hours a day rots my brain!!! I like to provide as much or as little communication as what would make you feel comfortable. Want pictures, a text update, and a video call while I'm visiting your pet? That sounds great! Prefer that I keep your phone notifications to a minimum? That works too!

About: I’ve had cats and dogs for most of my life. I currently have a 4 year old dog. Prior to him I had another dog that I had for 10 years and she passed away at 15 years old. My last dog was with me for 17 years. My last cat I had her for 16 years. I’ve taken care of my friend’s dogs when they’ve gone on vacation. I’ve done drop in visits to family cats while they’ve been away. To feed and clean litter box. I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available for boarding on weekends all day and weekdays after 1:30pm I live in an apartment with small patio. I have a friendly dog. My pup has lots of energy and enjoys playing. I have my dogcrate trained, so if your fur babies need to be crated at anytime just let me know.

I needed someone to play with my super energetic cat (Skooma) while I have to be away. Skooma loves her and follows her around during her visits. My old, grouchy cat (Bidoof) usually hides when people come in but she seems to stay visible when Victoria is around which is an amazing thing for Bidoof. We love Victoria! She is super nice and accommodating, even when I needed to add a last minute day to her visiting schedule. 💖

This is the second time Elicia has taken care of our 17 year old, and I hope she never retires! She is someone I can trust completely; we were on a cruise so we didn't have service a lot of the time and knowing she was in charge back home made it so much easier to relax and enjoy myself, because I didn't have to worry!
