About: I’ve been taking care of dogs my entire life. I have experience with puppies, energetic dogs, and elderly dogs. I love to spend my free time outside with my own dog, helping him get more exercise! I am eager to expand my dog experience and to bond with more animals. I’m currently working part time so I’ll have open availability to watch your dogs! I am able to be flexible to find times to walk or take your pup for a potty break! If you require a longer stay, I just need to know at least 2 weeks in advance to ensure my schedule will align. I currently have a Catahoula Leopord Dog, he requires a lot of attention and outdoor time. He has a hard time sharing his space, so I would have to board at the clients home. While visiting at the clients home, I will ensure the pup receives plenty of exercise, cuddles, and as many potty breaks it needs! I have my own transportation so it’s not a problem to commute.
“We've been fortunate to have Jamie walking our pup for close to a year and we couldn't ask for a better walker. When Jamie arrives, our dog loses his mind with excitement. He comes back with his tail wagging and completely puppered out. We're moving this week to a new city, and the thought of not having Jamie here every day with our dog makes us terribly sad. The folks who get to take our place in Jamie's walking rotation are lucky indeed!”
About: I’ve grown up with family dogs my entire life and have loved taking care of my own dogs since I was 11! I’ve trained two puppies myself and also have experience with senior care and administering medication as my previous dog had diabetes before she passed. I am a teacher with summers off so I’ll have plenty of time for all the pets! I’ll be available most days for July and August! I can do whatever is needed for your pets in your home! I can even bring my own puppy if your pets like play dates in the yard or company on their walks!
“Isaiah is an amazing dog walker!! He is very friendly and super reliable! I never had to worry about my dog not being well taken care of. I can’t say I’ve felt the same with other dog walkers we have used. Goose also loves him and enjoys their walks! I would highly recommend him!”
“Annie is great! I work long hours so Annie walks my dog a couple times a week. She's reliable, responsive and she gives me cute updates and pictures after every walk. I'm lucky to have found her and would highly recommend her!!”
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was 8-9 years old, taught proper care and handling as well as respect for all. I have experience giving medicine regularly and as needed, bathing and brushing, assessing comfort levels and giving good ol’fashion belly rubs. I am familiar with strict meal plans and the importance of keeping up their established routines. I follow your furry friends lead, never forcing unwanted attention and respecting their boundaries. I currently work part-time and have plenty of time to help watch your lovable puppers and cats! I am available 6AM-1PM everyday with my afternoon/evening availability changing weekly, only requiring a few days notice to work out our game plan. I am currently available for in-home visits and walks, and am fully capable of running around with your dog when needed! I respect all house rules and keep clients updated upon arrival and when I’m departing.
“Sarah is amazing with our dog!! I can tell how happy she is from the pictures I receive on their walks! Sarah really goes above and beyond to make sure our dog has a great experience each visit!”
“Adriana has been excellent! very responsive and communicative - it's been a joy to work with her and I trust her with my boy completely (an 80 lbs. 8 year old dog who loves all his smells and peeing on everything!).”
About: No dog deserves the kennel! Why settle for the pound when they can spend a night in a home with an owner-on-loan; either in your house on in a house that has raised two other pets from puppyhood to old age? Admittedly, there are stairs and hardwood floors in my house, but I have bought several carpets for my old dog to move around on and can lay them down for your dog’s convenience. We also have a big backyard that your dog will love to run around in (and no predators, unless you count woodchucks and geese) and a long leash that can go all the way to the end of the property line. I love dogs and after a day with me, your furry friend will mistake me for his mother. I’m most busy Wednesdays-Thursdays, so I marked them out on the calendar, but if petsitting is required for several days, that is easy to accommodate! I also don’t mind waking up every few hours to take a dog out—I have not quite reached the age where sleep is important. I won’t allow your dog to roam around outside unleashed (sorry, but I don’t want to lose them!), but when they’re outside, I’ll make sure they have the freedom to run around to their heart’s content. Additionally, I’m willing to walk them in any weather they’ll put up with and even let them sleep on the couch/spare bed, if they’re not too dirty.
About: I've never been without a pet--my family has had Labs and Goldens since before I was born, so I was raised taking care of and training dogs of all ages and personalities. I understand how important it is to find a trustworthy person to look after your pet, so please don't hesitate to ask me anything that will help you and your fur babies feel more comfortable :) I work part-time 3 days a week, so I have plenty of spare time to visit and walk your pets! My schedule is flexible, so if you ever need to make an adjustment, just let me know! I've taken care of pets with a wide range of personalities, so I understand that different pets need different types of care. You know what's best for your pet, so let me know how you do things and I will do my best to keep things consistent, familiar, and comfortable for your dogs!
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was a kid! Growing up in an apartment, I was always around cats and have been taking care of my own for the last 7 years. I am a total cat lady! I have cat-sit for many friends, colleagues, and family members. I've also always loved being around friend and family members' dogs and have dog sit several times, including walking and overnight care. I am patient, respectful, and reliable for providing clear and consistent communication. As a grad student, I am also dependable for responsible and respectful service. I know that trusting someone with your pets is a big responsibility, and I will do everything I can to give your furry family members as pleasant and relaxing an experience as possible while you're away! As a PhD student, my summers are very flexible as I am mostly working on independent research projects and preparing to teach in the fall. I have a car and am able to travel for the visits. Outside of short travel dates, I am usually available throughout the day and can complete multiple visits in a day if needed. When meeting new animals, I always allow the animal to dictate how much they want me to interact with them. Along with the basics of feeding and cleaning up, I always make sure to provide the animals with some play time and comfort. I am happy to talk about your animal's specific needs and how I can best care for them.
About: have extensive experience in pet care, having had many pets over the years. My journey includes rescuing, fostering, and rehoming animals, which has allowed me to develop a deep understanding of animal behavior and care needs. Throughout my experience, I've worked alongside trainers, learning valuable skills to help animals thrive. I pride myself on my patience, compassion, and unwavering love for animals, which I believe are essential qualities for providing the best care possible. My hands-on experience with a variety of pets has given me the ability to assess individual needs and provide the right support to ensure their health, happiness, and well-being. While I work full-time in an office Monday through Friday, my love and commitment to animals are a central part of my daily routine. I make sure to devote my evenings and weekends to providing the care and attention that animals deserve. My special bond with animals allows me to connect with them on a deeper level, ensuring they receive the emotional and physical support they need. I understand how important pets are to their owners, and I treat each pet with the utmost care, creating a safe, loving environment where they can thrive. Whether it’s through walks, playtime, or simply being present, I appreciate the opportunity to spend my free time helping animals feel loved and secure. I have years of experience offering in-home pet care, which allows me to create a safe and comfortable environment for each pet in the comfort of their own home. As someone who lives downtown, I’m well-positioned to serve professionals who need reliable care for their pets while they’re away. Although I’m unable to care for animals in my own space, I pride myself on being a trusted, dependable option for those in need.
About: I’ve grown up with pets. I’ve had two cats until they died of old age. I grew up with a dog until he turned 18 and another dog with epilepsy who is now 11. I currently have my own cat who I lived since I adopted him. I’m on summer break while I’m getting my Master’s in English but taking evening classes twice a week! I would love to fill my days raking care of animals. I currently take care of my own cat who is inside only. I am comfortable watching over outdoor cats and any dog. I have plenty of experience with crate trained dogs if required! I am autistic so I am particularly able to see in a pet’s body language when they are uncomfortable.

“Sierra is the sitter you want to look after your pets! She is very dependable and always punctual. She plays close attention to detail and will follow exact instructions left to care for your pets. Sierra goes above and beyond when she cares for my lab Hazel for whole weekends at a time. She would even set aside more time than required to stay and play with my dog a bit longer. Hazel has severe anxiety and gets very sad when she knows we are leaving, but is always super excited to see Sierra and is happy and healthy every time we return. Your pet will be in wonderful hands and given lots of love and care!”

Jadyne M.
“Jadyne is an absolutely amazing and very considerate pet sitter! I went out of town to visit family for over 2 weeks, and she was fantastic with coming in daily to check up on my cats. She stayed for a few hours at a time every day to check up on their automatic food and water feeders, as well as clean up their litterbox. I was especially appreciative of her attention to detail with the litterbox, since one of my cats is quite picky with the litterbox setup. Jadyne was able to accommodate her pickiness with no issues, which gave me enormous peace of mind on my trip! I was also grateful that Jadyne was willing to stay for a little bit during each visit to spend time with my cats and play with them so they wouldn't get too lonely. She frequently sent photos and videos so I knew they were doing okay, and communication was a breeze.”

John R.
“They say that dog is man’s best friend, but most of these people are liars. Or at least, they are terrible friends. When their house is on fire, most people would rather rescue their precious keepsakes or crying baby than the companion that’s been there through everything. But that’s not John. I have the utmost confidence that John will treat your dog with the utmost protectiveness like those mothers who can lift cars when their kids are trapped inside. Not that his house has ever been on fire or anything. They have at least four exits, an extinguisher, and never light candles even though they have them.”
Allison G.
“Ally is a fun, loving, caring person who will responsibly care for your pets. She has experience doing house visits for dogs and cats. Her family has always had big dogs, but has also cared for small dogs. She will make your pets feel loved while you are away - with playing, brushing, walking, cuddling, feeding - whatever your pet prefers. Ally is responsible, shows up on time, and will carefully follow any instructions that you provide.”
Sarah A.
“Sarah is a great pet sitter for my cats. She is detail-oriented, punctual, and very organized! Not to even mention how much she cares about cats. I can leave my fur babies without any concerns if Sarah's with them.”
Brandi I.
“Brandi has been a dog owner from. Pit pulls to french bulldogs as well as pet sit for multiple dogs at one time. She has a good knowledge and understanding of various breeds. She has a good understanding of training dogs and their behaviors and a genuine love for them”
Izabella B.
“Bella takes care of a Pomeranian and a larger Shepard/retriever mix. Show is very caring and patient with the bigger dog that is young a spirited.”
