“Friendly, great vibes, my dog loves Jessica and looked forward to having walks with her daily. She’s consistent, trustworthy, and hardworking. I would hire her any day to walk my dog.”


“Courtney is incredible! She does a fantastic job communicating her availability ahead of time and truly takes such great care of my pups. It is obvious that she really cares for my dogs and enjoys what she does! My dogs are obsessed with her and anyone would be lucky to book with her!”


About: My family has a lot of dogs so I’ve had experience caring for a variety of different breeds of them, all ranging in sizes/age! I love animals a lot and would love the opportunity to meet and form a connection with your pet! I currently work part-time so I have my weekdays free in the mornings/afternoons as well as pretty open availability on the weekends. I will continuously update my schedule to reflect availability! I don’t offer services in my own home but when I go to a client’s home, I’m respectful of the space and will listen to any instructions you give regarding your pet and home as I am there to do my job!

“Taylor is doing a very good job. She arrives every day, takes my dog for a nice walk, gives her some lovin', and even spends a little time with my cats. She's definitely someone I would recommend.”


About: In addition to owning cats and dogs my whole life, I work at an emergency vet clinic. I love all animals and can't wait to meet yours :) I work full-time at a veterinary hospital while preparing for veterinary school. On my days off, I am available for drop-in visits as well :) I unfortunately can't take any additional pets into my home, but I love to meet pets at their level. Sitting on the floor with a dog is one of life's true delights.

About: Growing up, my family had a few dogs. I raised two from puppies and also adopted/fostered a few from shelters. It’s been awhile since I’ve owned a dog, but I’ve been helping a coworker with theirs consistently over the last few years. I would love to help other families as well! I currently work part time, 4-5 evenings a week. I am available most mornings and can be pretty flexible during the day. My 2-3 days off are pretty flexible as well! When I am watching a pet, they have my full attention. I love to play with them and take them for walks. On my walks, I do not wear any form of earbud or headphones, so I am fully aware of our surroundings.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs most of my life and have watched dogs for friends and family. I also fostered dogs through Ruffstart Rescue and Happy Tails. I’ve watched small dogs to big dogs ranging from puppies to senior dogs! I work Mondays and half day Tuesdays so I’m available on the weekends! I could be available Wednesday-Friday if I know ahead of time! Weekends are when I like to dedicate time to being active outside with my own dog Lady. I like to go on walks and go to the dog park. I live in a house and have a fenced in yard. No kids. I do have a 6 YO German Shepherd mix who loves to play!

About: Hi. My name is Carrie. I love all kind of animals. I have 2 cats right now. I used to have a hampster. I grew up having rodents. I never owned a dog but i sure love them. I used to live with a couple of dogs in thr past but they wasn't mine. I used help take the dogs for walks though and fed them as if they was my own dogs. I love walking them. I love playing with them. Like balls, freezbie. I live in a apartment building and am only allowed to have to pets that live me anyways. I can however babysit as many as pets like other cats or even dogs as i want. There is no rule on that. I just love animals all together. So feel free to message me if you are interested P.S. Just so you know I can't drive but I take metro mobility. I hope that is not a problem. Also, I have found out that i can't have anymore animals that aren't mine so I would have to travel to the Guest's house to watch their pets. I hope that is fine with everyone. I love cats and offer cat sitting as well as dog sitting! I’m happy to stay at your house or visit your kitty while you’re away.

“Karen and Brian are the best. They take such great care of our Goldens, Hank and Winnie. Karen and Brian are great communicators, show Hank and Winnie tons of love, make sure the pups get what they need, and update us with tons of photos. We are so grateful for their kindness, and highly recommend them!”


About: I have been dog and cat sitting for over 10yrs. I usually stay at the owners house. Experienced with dogs with medical issues, and high anxiety. I have given medications and have done some training. I have done just overnight stays, but have also done 3month long stays. I am also a Hairstylist and Skin care specialist. I rent a chair at a salon and make my own schedule, so my hours are flexable. I enjoy spending time with pets, but just don't live in a place were I can have one. I am not married and have no children, so I am completely available and focused on your pet. I usually like to meet you and your pet/pets about 1week before the scheduled appointment, so I can get to know you, your pet and your pets routine, feeding times, walking, medications if needed, etc. This also helps the dog recognize me when I show up, when you aren't there.

About: What sets me apart is my deep, genuine connection with animals and my many years of hands-on experience. I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, and personalities — from playful puppies learning the ropes to senior pets who need a gentler touch and extra patience. I’m intuitive when it comes to reading an animal’s needs and adapting to their energy level, whether that means an adventurous walk, a fun play session, or calm cuddle time. Because I recently lost my own beloved dog, I understand how important it is to find someone who will love and care for your pet like family. I pride myself on reliability, clear communication, and creating a safe, happy environment for every animal in my care. Your pet’s well-being is always my top priority. Pet care is a natural part of my everyday life. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give your pet the attention they need — whether that’s daily walks, drop-in visits, or extended stays. I enjoy starting my mornings with fresh air and exercise, so walks fit perfectly into my day, and I’m equally happy to spend time playing, cuddling, or simply keeping your pet company. Weekends and evenings are just as open, so I can easily adjust to your pet’s routine to keep them happy and comfortable. When I care for pets in their home, I make it my priority to keep their routine as familiar and comfortable as possible. I follow your instructions closely — from feeding times and walks to favorite toys and cozy spots — so your pet feels safe and at ease. I provide plenty of love, playtime, and companionship, and I’m attentive to their needs and moods. I also keep your home tidy and secure, and I send regular updates so you can relax knowing your furry friend is in loving hands.
