“Gabriella is the best!”


About: Hi, I’m Angel – your pet’s new best friend! As a lifelong animal lover, I know just how important it is to find someone who treats your pets like family. That’s exactly what I do. Whether I’m staying in your home or welcoming your furry friends into mine, you can count on me to provide compassionate, trustworthy, and reliable care—tail wags and all! (I travel within a 60 mile radius from my home 🏡) Here’s what I offer: 🐶 House Sitting & Pet Care – I’ll care for your pets in the comfort of their own home, sticking to their routines and making sure they feel safe, loved, and stress-free while you’re away. I also keep your home tidy, bring in the mail, water plants, and make it look lived in for peace of mind. 🏡 Boarding in My Home – Your pets become part of my pack while they stay with me! My home is cozy, pet-friendly, and full of snuggles. I keep their schedule consistent and make sure they feel right at home, whether they’re here for a weekend or a longer vacation. (Dog walking and drop in visits are also available!) I happily care for dogs, cats, and a variety of small pets like bunnies, ferrets, guinea pigs/hamsters, and birds. (I also have “hobby farm” experience from chickens to horses) And while I love animals of all shapes and sizes, I unfortunately do not offer care for snakes or spiders—just sticking to the furry and feathered friends I know best! I treat every pet like they’re my own—with patience, playtime, and plenty of belly/butt rubs and scratches. Whether they’re shy, energetic, cuddly, or independent, I take the time to understand their personalities and make sure they feel secure and loved. If you’re looking for someone who will go above and beyond to make your pets happy and your mind at ease, I’d love to chat!🤗 I am usually home full time as I only pet sit and might go out periodically for an hour or two and that depends on the dogs, I'll always accommodate to your pet schedule to make them feel like they’re at home. I have a fully fenced in backyard, they’re always supervised and I am present with them when outdoors. On walks, I use a slip leash along with a regular leash for extra safety. I am very flexible and willing to accommodate for any situations that may arise. I am a very dedicated dog mom and always put their needs above my own.

About: Highly skilled and experienced dog sitter with a proven track record of delivering exceptional care for dogs of all breeds and sizes. My expertise includes managing daily routines, from feeding and exercise to administering medications and handling special needs.

Known for my reliable and attentive approach, I have a strong ability to build trust with both pets and their owners. My dedication to ensuring each dog's well-being and providing personalized care sets me apart as a top-notch dog sitter. I’m available everyday of the week. Currently living with 3 cats and love them to death. It’s a hobby of mine to take care animals I provide exceptional pet care both in my home and at clients' homes, tailored to meet each pet's unique needs. In my home, I ensure a safe and stimulating environment with dedicated spaces for play, rest, and exercise, adhering to each pet’s routine and dietary requirements.

“Averi was very easy to work with. She is flexible and understanding. When I booked her for four-days, then had to cancel due to a change in circumstances, she immediately responded and helped process the refund. The one day that she took our dogs out for a walk, she walked them for a mile, ensured they had food and water, and she even helped mop up their accidents. When we came home to greet our dogs, they were much calmer than normal. I believe this is due to the time, attention, and care that Averi put into her duties. If we ever need a dog-walker, again, in the future, we will consider Averi first!”


“Super! Kayla was wonderful with my 3 dogs who all have varying needs: young to old. She was very responsive, caring and my dogs felt comfortable with her on all her visits.”

About: I grew up in the country with many animals to take care of. Prior to the pandemic friends have always asked me to take care of their cats and dogs while they were away.

About: I’ve always been an animal lover. When I was a child I had all sorts of different pets. I had fish, hamsters, gerbils, lizards and rabbits. When I got older I had a family dog named Lulu who I helped house brake and train as a pup when I was in high school. When I became an adult I adopted my dog Weston who I’ve had and trained since he was an eight week old puppy. I’m very confident in my ability to help house train your young dog if need be. I understand how much stimulation and exercise they require. I’m happy to provide that through long walks, trips to the dog park and general outings. I have lots of chew toys around and ways to keep feisty puppies occupied. I’ve fostered cats as well as taken care of neighbors’ kittens including providing feedings and litter box cleaning when necessary. I’ve always wanted to have a parrot as a pet so if you have birds that need care I’d appreciate the opportunity to come help out and learn more about them :). I’m currently a full time pet sitter. I have a dog of my own as well. I will be available all hours of the day and night to care for your animal(s). I’m happy to spend the extra time taking puppies in training as well as senior dogs outside as much as they need. I have a friendly golden doodle named Weston to keep your pup company. I’m happy to help house brake puppies as well as provide care for senior animals.
