About: I’ve grown up around both dogs and cats and have experience caring for pets for friends and family through walking, feeding, and playing while they’re away. I currently have my own 13 year old cat and previously had a dog, so I’m comfortable with pets of different personalities and energy levels. I’m dependable, attentive, and always make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for. I love meeting new fur babies! :) I’m currently working part time Monday through Wednesday until about 3pm, so I’m usually available in the afternoons and evenings on those days. I also have plenty of flexibility the rest of the week. I take care of my senior cat every day, so I’m already used to feeding, cleaning up, and making sure a pet is comfortable and getting lots of attention throughout the day I’ll take great care of your pet and make sure they feel happy and comfortable while you’re away! I will feed them on time, take them on walks or let them in the yard to get all their energy out! I love playing with all animals as if they were my own :)
“I booked Siobhan last minute over a busy holiday week, and I seriously couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She took incredible care of my two dogs and I got regular updates, photos, and total peace of mind the entire time. I’m so grateful for her help and will definitely be booking again. Highly recommend!”
“Awesome experience! Katharine made our trip stress free. Hercules was well cared for in his own home. I only wish we had done this for prior trips. Couldn't have worked out any better”

“Karen was a pleasure! so communicative, and was able to provide updates immediately! appreciate all the pictures as well to see Dusty having fun while I am stuck at work!”

“We are super thankful to Alec! He was very careful with our dog, we’re sure they both had such a great time together. I’ll trust my dog to him whenever! This is the first time we left our puppy and we have no complaints! Super communicative!”

“Breanna was an amazing pet sitter for my dog and cat!! She went above and beyond caring for them and was super communicative and loving with them. Would definitely have her pet sit for them again ❤️❤️”

“Our cats are our kids and we hate them being lonely and uncomfortable when we are away. Our newest rescue also seems to not like men so much, so this time when we needed a sitter last minute we reached out to Ella and hit the jackpot!! Ella followed all our directions for feeding etc and kept our house clean while we were away...which isn't easy with 2 cats. Our cats, which can be very shy initially, fell in love with Ella and it put us at ease knowing how happy they were with her and how much they looked forward to seeing her. Highly recommend Ella to take care of your pets. She is very responsible, corresponds with you very well, and loves your pets like her own.”

“Look no further. Susan is your person. We booked her last minute and gave her semi-complicated instructions concerning insulin injections for our male tabby and she was outstanding. Easy to work with, great with our cats, reliable. Perfect.”


“Amy took great care of my dog and cat. I can’t explain what a relief it was to find her. My mini dachshund is 16 years old and I don’t like to bring him into new environments or away from his best friend pelé the cat, so it worked out perfectly. I would highly recommend Amy!”

About: My family and I all love animals, so we applied to be pet's sitters at home care. We have a independent house with a yard, and there will always be someone at home 24 hours a day. The pets can move freely at home without too many restrictions. We have regularly clean to the house to ensure the clean and hygiene environment for all pets. I have over a year of experience in taking care of cats and over six years of experience in taking care of dogs. The longest time I took care of a cat was for two months. At the beginning, the cat would hide under the sofa for a week, but lately he became completely unrestrained and would lie on the bed together, play hide-and-seek with me, and explore every corner of the house. When the weather was good, the dogs could play freely in the yard. Welcome all cats and dogsto my home, we are the best friends of your pets! We can keep daily routine for all pet's. I am working part-time on weekends and I will come back at 4PM , but my family members are off on weekends. And my family members and I take care of all pets together. We have a independent house with a yard, and there will always be someone at home 24 hours a day. The pets can move freely at home without too many restrictions. We have regularly cleaning to the house to ensure the clean and hygiene environment for all pets. When the weather was good, the dogs could play freely in the yard.

About: I’m an avid animal lover with years of hands-on experience and you can rest assured when your pets are in my care! I’ve worked as a dog handler for an animal shelter and as a professional dog walker and pet sitter before starting my own business. I now proudly operate Wander Paws LLC, my fully insured pet care company, which I’ve been running independently for over six years. All pet care services are delivered personally by me, because your pets deserve familiar care and happy routines. Many of my clients have been with me for years, and I’ve had the joy of caring for several of their pets since puppyhood! Over time, I’ve looked after countless dogs, cats, and other small animals of all breeds, ages, and temperaments while their parents are home or away. I’m 27 years old and I am focused on building my business! I truly love spending my time taking care of your pets. And when I’m not working, I enjoy spending time with my own pack of pets at home: three dogs (a shepherd mix, a lab mix, and a terrier mix) and five rescue cats😊 I would love to provide all your pet care needs, from walks and playtime to feedings and medication. I’m also comfortable with light household tasks like handling keys, operating security systems, scooping litter boxes, bringing in mail, cleaning up pet messes, and keeping your home safe and secure. I will precisely follow the instructions and routines you provide. As a lifelong pet owner, I understand how important it is to leave your pets in the care of someone you trust. I’ll care for your pets as if they were my own, with plenty of love, consistency, and attention to detail. 💛 Flat rate care: I never charge extra for multiple pets or puppies. Medication, feeding, and special routines included. ✨ Don’t hesitate to reach out to schedule a free meet & greet. I can’t wait to meet you and your pets! AVAILABILITY: I have a daily schedule of dog walking & pet sitting Mondays-Fridays and I am now accepting new clients! I try my best to be very flexible, so please reach out and let me know what times you might need pet care and I will do my absolute best to accommodate whatever you might need. SAFETY: My clients’ safety, (both pets & people!), is my upmost priority. When going for walks, I will make sure your dog(s) is harnessed/leashed up extremely securely. Most of the time, I will attach their leash to BOTH their collar and their harness so if there is ever a product malfunction, they won’t ever get loose. I will walk your fur baby with my full attention and will not allow them to greet other dogs on their walk unless I am 100% sure that both dogs are friendly. I completely avoid any loose dogs that we might see on our walks to avoid confrontation. When letting your pets in the yard, I will always make sure that the gate(s) are securely closed before letting them out. If you have indoor cats, I will make sure they are safe inside of your home at ALL times. I will only feed your pets treats & food that you provide to avoid any allergic reactions. I triple check that all doors to your home are locked while I take your dog(s) out for a walk and after I leave. I am comfortable using any security systems you might have to ensure that your home is completely secure. If you confine your dog to a space for their safety while you are not home, (crate, room, playpen, etc.), I will also triple check that they are secured in that space before I leave. I will do everything in my power to make you & your pet(s) feel as comfortable as possible. Please communicate any safety concerns you might have with me. Your peace of mind is my top priority!
“Andrea is wonderful with Teddy. I am so glad we found Andrea as she always takes such good care of Teddy when I need. Andrea is friendly, reliable, trustworthy and responds timely. I highly recommend Andrea for the best pet care services.”

About: I am a mom of 2 amazing kids, and 2 fur babies. I have been around animals my entire life and have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’ve raised and house-trained my own puppies, so I’m comfortable with routines, consistency, and positive reinforcement. I have experience with puppies, senior pets, and multi-pet households, and can follow specific feeding schedules, dietary needs, and basic medication routines if needed. I’m happy to provide regular photo updates and check-ins for peace of mind. Whether your pet is active and loves long walks or prefers a calm, snuggly environment, I tailor my care to meet their individual needs and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Pet care fits easily into our daily routine. I work full-time, but pets are never left alone for long periods. On weekends, I am fully available and love spending that time with the animals in my care. When we’re home, dogs have free rein of our secure backyard and plenty of opportunities for walks, exercise, and playtime. We also truly enjoy downtime with pets—whether that’s relaxing together, giving attention, or just letting them feel comfortable and at home. We make sure every pet gets the right balance of activity, care, and affection based on their needs. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. In my home, I have a fully fenced-in backyard where dogs can safely enjoy outdoor time and play. Pets are always supervised outside, and I make sure the environment is secure at all times. I have a friendly, well-socialized dog who enjoys playing with other dogs, as well as a calm cat who keeps to herself and does not interfere with visiting pets. I’m mindful of introductions and always prioritize a safe, low-stress environment for everyone. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine exactly—whether that means crating, free roam, specific feeding schedules, exercise needs, or any special instructions. I keep a clean, pet-safe home and pay close attention to behavior, appetite, and overall well-being. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I’m respectful of your space and will maintain your pet’s normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I also provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins so you always feel confident your pet is in good hands.

Christy was an excellent sitter for my cat Velvet while I was away for a week !!!! Christy was courteous, professional, and attentive to all of my cat's needs! The daily check-ins and pictures provided by Christy were much appreciated and helped soothe my nerves. I would definitely book Christy again in a heartbeat, and I will definitely refer her to others I know who need sitters for their fur babies! Thanks again Christy for a job well done and for going above and beyond!

This was our second drop-in visit, and he once again did an amazing job. He took great care of each one of our cats, cleaned the litter boxes thoroughly, refreshed their water, and made sure everyone was happy. We really appreciate how attentive and reliable he is. Highly recommend!

Meghan is an exceptional young lady. She cared for My Furbaby Mochi, while away w family. My Cat is spoon fed, and asked if she would be able to do the same for him. W no hesitation it was not an issue. She sent pics thru Rover ,(feeding him) and keeping me updated as a great courtesy. On top of it, responded practically immediately ,to a text of mine during an afternoon when she I’m sure she was busy. Meghan arrived punctual every scheduled visit and at the end left a wholesome note on how great everything went. I seen her to be very respectful, responsible and kind. I would highly recommend her. And will rebook if I need a sitter. Thank you Meghan. -Mochi
