About: I have a varied history working with all different kinds of animals. This includes working in an animal shelter, pet sitting and also foster for Pug rescue and all breed rescues. Extensive medical knowledge and care. Make sure that every animal feels comfortable and lovingly cared for. I work part-time remotely in my home, so have plenty of time to provide in home visits and walks. Open to Holiday's and flexible for convenience. Very conscientious of care for not only the animal but the surroundings. Clean and thorough with the animals individual needs at the forefront. Thrive on order and clarity.

“Chelsea did a great job caring for our two kitties while we were away. She sent so many photos and a nice report of how they did for each visit. I have a short list of people I trust to care for our pets and I would absolutely use her again in the future for our pet sitting needs!”

About: I’ve cared for pets for years through pet sitting for family members and friends, and animals have always been an important part of my life. One of my most meaningful experiences was caring for my elderly dog, Oreo, during the later years of his life. As he became less mobile, I helped him with stairs, getting on and off the couch, finding his food and water, and getting around comfortably. Caring for him taught me a lot about patience, gentleness, and paying attention to the little changes that can make a big difference for an older pet. I currently have two cats: Levi, my sweet one-eyed kitty, and Romie, who joined our household when we moved in with his owner. While I don’t currently have a dog of my own because I’m a student and know how much time and dedication dogs deserve, I still absolutely love being around them and getting my dog fix through the pets I care for! I understand that pets aren’t “just pets”, they’re family. Whether your pet needs playtime, cuddles, a patient companion, or a little extra help getting around, I’ll treat them with the same care and attention I’d want someone to give my own. Pet care is already built into my everyday routine. With my own cats, I start by making sure they’re fed and have plenty of fresh water; something I think is especially important and sometimes overlooked with pets. After that, I always make time for attention, whether that means cuddling on the couch, chasing a laser pointer, or simply letting them hang out wherever everyone else is. My cats may be independent, but they still want to be involved in absolutely everything we do! I also give my one-eyed kitty, Levi, his daily eye drop and keep a close eye on his eye since it requires a little extra care. At the end of the day, the cats usually get another round of playtime with a wand toy or whatever has caught their attention that week before finding their favorite cozy spot in our bed. I’m also the proud aunt of a very house-elf-looking wiener dog named Willow. Over the years, I’ve cared for her whenever my sister needed me to, which usually meant walks, meals, fresh water, treats, cuddles, and plenty of time to sniff the neighborhood. After walking a hound for years, I have learned that getting from Point A to Point B is merely a suggestion. Sometimes every single blade of grass apparently requires a full investigation! I’m very patient with that because sniffing and exploring are part of how dogs experience their world, and I’m happy to let them enjoy their walk rather than rush them through it. Once Willow has had her walk and settles down for one of her famous naps, that’s usually when I’ll work on schoolwork or other things I need to get done. Being a student gives me flexibility to work pet care naturally into my day, and I’m very comfortable planning my schedule around feeding times, walks, playtime, medications, check-ins, and whatever routine helps a pet feel most at home. Whether your fur baby is staying with me or I’m checking in on them in the comfort of their own home, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m more than happy to follow any precautions, routines, house rules, feeding instructions, or little quirks that help your pet feel secure, because you know your animal better than anyone. I truly believe “just a pet” is not a thing. I would want someone caring for my own animals to take their safety and comfort seriously, and I wouldn’t offer another pet parent anything less. I’d love to say I’m Snow White and every animal immediately trusts me, but realistically, every pet has their own personality! I’m happy to give a nervous pet space, earn their trust at their pace, or give an affectionate one all the attention they’re asking for.

“Paula did a most excellent job taking care of the kitties. I will definitely use her again. She was more reliable than the family I had over during the weekend”

Jennifer D.

“First time with Stormy, and definitely not the last! She was wonderful and very patient with my cat during the 10 days. She kept me updated with feedback and pictures and was always very responsive. Thank you so much, Stormy!”

About: I have 30 years of experience in pet sitting and have taken care of a variety of cats and dogs and other furry critters. I treat them as if they were my own and make sure that they feel loved and safe while their parents are away. I have lots of experience with shy animals and those dogs that need that extra exercise. I work part time as a remote bookkeeper and have a very flexible schedule which allows me to be available morning, afternoon and evening for visits. I am available for one or multiple visits per day at your home, I am also available for overnight stays and hosting in my home

About: Plenty of references with my regular customers that I can share. I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life and caring for animals has always been second nature to me. I’ve long been the go-to person for family and friends when they need someone they trust to care for their pets. I also volunteer with Dogs Inc., which has given me even more appreciation for understanding dog behavior and providing consistent, thoughtful care. Hi! I’m a lifelong dog mom and recently retired professional who now has the time to focus on something I truly love spending time with animals. Animals have always been part of my life, and caring for them comes very naturally to me. I’m also a volunteer with Dogs Inc., which has given me an even deeper appreciation for dog behavior, patience, and understanding different personalities. I’m physically fit and active, so daily walks, playtime, and keeping up with energetic dogs is something I truly enjoy. I share my home with my dog Roxie, who absolutely loves having visiting dogs around. She’s very friendly and quickly becomes the welcoming committee for any new house guests. Because I’m retired, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time for walks, visits, playtime, and companionship. Whether your dog needs exercise, a midday visit, or a comfortable place to stay, I love making sure they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for. I provide a safe, calm, and trusting environment and care for every pet just as I would my own, with plenty of attention, love, and care.

About: I’m a lifelong pet owner and genuinely love spending time with dogs — playing, exploring, and getting them out for enrichment, not just a quick walk around the block. My own dog and I are regulars at sniff spots and the beach, and I know how much a good sniffy walk can do for a dog’s mood and energy. I have specific experience with reactive dogs, so I’m comfortable reading body language, managing triggers, and keeping walks calm and controlled. At home I’ve got two cats, and between my own pets and my 5 granddogs (a few of whom have physical disabilities), I’ve had a lot of practice adapting care to each animal’s individual needs. You’ll get a reliable, on-time sitter/walker who treats your dog like part of the pack, with photo and text updates along the way. A few highlights: • Experienced with reactive dogs — calm, attentive handling • Loves active outings: sniff spots, beach walks, play sessions • Comfortable with dogs who have physical disabilities or special needs Flexible, fully open schedule — available weekdays, evenings, and weekends for walks, drop-ins, or house sitting. I can accommodate last-minute requests and recurring bookings alike. Careful, security-conscious sitter. I’m always attentive to leashes, gates, and doors, keeping every pet secure and safe. I will treat them like my own.

About: I’ve been taking care of cats for the past 15 years, as well as my family’s 2 French Bulldogs and English bulldog for around 5 years now. I have open availability at the moment and am willing to work any days and times needed to take care of animals that need it. I walk my family’s dogs every couple hours, and feed them their homemade food that is made for them. For my cat, I scoop her litter box everyday, feed her, refill her water and spend time with her at night.

“I had to book Aspen very last minute due to a cancelation and she was definitely the right choice. I've never seen my cats warm up to someone so quickly. They clearly liked her. She also did a very good job of keeping the food, water, and litter box full and clean.”

“Fluffy was fantastic. She was reliable and punctual, and most importantly, Izzy liked her and trusted her to give her medication every day. We will definitely use her again.”
