About: Caring for animals has been second nature to me since childhood. Over the years, my experience has spanned far beyond standard pet care- I've raised and cared for everything from dogs and cats to ferrets, bunnies, goats, pigs, and chickens. That diverse hands-on background taught me how to read animal body language, manage different temperaments, and handle daily routines with patience and confidence. Today, our home is a true animal-loving environment. We share our space with our sweet rescue dog, Valentina Bella, whom we welcomed into our family nearly two years ago. My two children have grown up sharing that same respect and gentle affection for animals, making our house a warm, nurturing second home. Expect to have a safe, calm environment: Your pet's comfort and routine come first. We prioritize safety, clear boundaries, and saree-free transitions. Attentive Care & Exercise: Whether your dog loves neighborhood walks, active playtime, or just lounging nearby while receiving gentle affection, their daily needs will be met. Consistent Communication: I know how important peace of mind is when you're away. You can count on regular updates, notes, and photos throughout their stay. Comfort with All Personalities: From outgoing social butterflies to rescues that need a little extra time and patience to feel secure, we know how to meet animals where they are. Because we already share our home with our own rescue dog, a steady, dependable pet routine is second nature to our household. My schedule allows for dedicated time before, during, and after work/school hours to give dogs the exercise and care they need. Mornings begin with breakfast and a solid walk to burn off energy before the day starts. During the day, our setup ensures pets are safe, comfortable, and never left unattended for extended periods. Evenings and weekends are completely centered around family and pets - featuring long neighborhood walks, play sessions, and calm downtime. We treat pet care as a priority and make sure visiting guests receive the exact same consistency, affection, and structure as our own dog. Safety is top priority. We start with a mandatory meet-and-greet to ensure compatible temperaments before any stay. Inside our pet-proofed, secure home, visiting pets are closely supervised, and slow, respectful introductions are always practiced. With years of experience managing diverse animals and rescues, I am vigilant about body language and routine boundaries. Your dog will never be left unattended with other pets or children without direct supervision. When walked, pets are always securely leashed. You'll receive prompt daily photos and honest updates so you always know your pet is secure and comfortable.
About: What sets me apart is my professional animal experience. I offer dog walks, consistent dog exercise, and precise routine management to keep your pets thriving. I have grown up around all different types of animals from dogs, cats, goats, horses etc. My family have trusted me to caring for their animals and pets. Ever since I was little I always have a huge passionate of all different kinds of animals and pets throughout my life. I am available walking your fur doggies or play with them from Monday-Friday at 6am through 3pm. As well goes for drop-visit Monday-Friday 6am through 3pm. I am able to care for your pets in your home to keep them as comfortable as possible. I can provide potty breaks when needed, feed, walk, bathe and play with your pets.
“Absolutely amazing! Darby is so nice and pleasant to talk to. And she treats my two doggos even better than I imagined. I love the amount of communication about how the walks went and how the dogs are behaving while I'm out and about. My two rascals absolutely love her. As a first time user of the app I was concerned about trying this out but I have no regrets and I recommend it to others now. I can relax knowing that Darby is taking care of the kiddos.”

About: Hello! I have experience with senior dogs and special needs pups (my current pup has epilepsy). I understand the importance of being timely with meds, cleaning up messes, noticing if anything is off, providing structure, and showing so much love. I look forward to taking excellent care of your dog(s). I’m currently out of work and waiting for a new job to begin, so I have plenty of time to make sure your pet gets their food and meds at the right time, and to make sure they feel safe and loved with me. I am cognizant of dogs who try to escape, so I am careful when entering your home and meeting your pet(s). I don’t make loud noises or sudden movements, waiting for your pet(s) to sense my calm before I proceed. I am respectful of your space and your possessions whenever I am in your home.
About: With lifelong experience caring for dogs, horses, and cats, I'm an animal lover and horse whisperer. I train my pets, provide energy healing, and enjoy daily walks. Pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine, as I work from home and have the flexibility to design my own schedule. As an energy healing practitioner, I prioritize mindfulness and balance, which extends to my pets. I incorporate playtime, walks, and training when needed into my day, ensuring they receive ample exercise and mental stimulation. During breaks from my meditation and yoga sessions, I find joy in spending quality time with my pets, fostering a nurturing environment. Their companionship enhances my work-life balance, and I often use sound healing techniques to create a calming atmosphere for both myself and my furry friends. Caring for pets in my home is a thoughtful process. I have a fenced yard where your dog can play safely alongside my sweet 15 year old boxer, who loves companionship. I welcome only dogs that are friendly with cats, as my 4 year old indoor cat enjoys their company. I feed all dogs outside, right in front of my kitchen, ensuring a clean and pleasant environment. Cats are fed separately in the kitchen, with their food placed on furniture to keep is safe from curious dogs. For hydration, I have a water fountain for the cats and a water dispenser for the dogs, both inside and outside for the dogs. When needed, I can easily crate your dog at night; my boxer is crate trained but prefers to sleep freely now. I require that you bring your dog and cat with their own bed, food, and treats, ensuring they feel comfortable. Additionally, It's essential that all pets have a collar with a tag and a leash for safety. This structured approach helps create a harmonious atmosphere for all furry friends in my care.
About: I am a huge animal lover and had my first dog when I was 12. Since then I had many pets including dogs, bunnies, hamsters and tortoises. We are a family of three and work from home most of the time so your pet will have constant love and attention. Our chocolate lab Bailey is a goofball and as sweet as they come. He has seizures so we are well trained in caring for animals with health conditions and can administer medications when needed. We have a 6 foot fenced yard that is fully secured and a doggy door that allows your fur baby an access to the yard at any time. We treat our pets as family and yours will be part of our family when you are away. We are working from home most days and only away for a few hours at the time. Daily walks will be provided along with playtime and lots of love. We have a fully fenced large yard with shade and lots of grass. We also have a friendly playmate dog to keep your fur baby company.

I have 3-paw ginger boy Akio and his sister Tora . If you need help with your furry baby ,reach me out ✨🐾 As a pet owner I know how hard it is to find and trust someone you don’t even know or met before. What’s helping is to check and understand the personality of caregiver and look closer to her/his moral values and beliefs in a daily life (even before they create an account on this platform) ✨🐾🌸 I can be available most days during the week ,except some time frames when I have my trainings. Most of the time I prefer to spend with animals, since I have an ability to connect with them and understand their feelings and needs.

About: What sets me apart is a lifetime of experience and genuine love for animals of all shapes and sizes! I’ve had dogs since I was nine years old and have extensive experience caring for senior dogs, having had three of my own. I understand the patience, attentiveness, and extra care that older pups sometimes need. I also volunteered at an animal shelter for two years, where I gained hands-on experience working with both puppies and adult dogs, helping me become comfortable with different personalities, temperaments, and needs. As a Marine Biology graduate, I’ve also spent years studying animal biology and welfare, alongside caring for a variety of animals throughout my life, including cats, hamsters, and even tarantulas! Whether your pup is a playful puppy, a gentle senior, or somewhere in between, I aim to provide attentive, compassionate care and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I treat every animal as if they were my own! Having recently graduated with my MSc in Marine Biology, I currently have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to accommodate pet care throughout the week. This allows me to be flexible with walks, drop-in visits, and pet-sitting arrangements. I’m happy to work around your pet’s individual routine, whether that means morning walks, afternoon visits, feeding times, or simply providing some company while you’re away. I enjoy being active and spending time outdoors, so daily dog walks are something I genuinely look forward to! I understand how important consistency and routine are for animals, and I’ll always aim to make sure your pet feels comfortable, cared for, and gets plenty of attention while you’re away. I primarily offer pet care in my client’s home, where pets can remain comfortable in their familiar surroundings and routines. I take the time to understand each animal’s individual needs, personality, and schedule to ensure they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for while their owners are away. For dogs, this includes walks, playtime, feeding, fresh water, and plenty of attention and affection. For cats, I’m happy to provide feeding, fresh water, litter tray cleaning, enrichment, and companionship while respecting their individual personalities and boundaries. I also have experience administering medications and caring for senior pets, so I’m comfortable following specific care instructions, dietary requirements, medication schedules, and exercise limitations. Having volunteered at an animal shelter for two years, I’m familiar with animals of different temperaments and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and attentive care. I believe communication is just as important as the care itself, so I’m always happy to provide regular photo updates and messages to keep owners reassured while they’re away. My goal is to treat every pet as if they were my own and make their time apart from you as comfortable and stress-free as possible!
“Lila accepted a last minute request to walk my dog! She followed directions perfectly and was very communicative and made the process stress free. Will definitely be using again!”

“Kiyarash is the BEST!! he truly goes above and beyond to care for my baby, Meeko. He’s communicative, on time, reliable, and so easy to work with, Meeko is always happy to see him and he provides me with photos and reassurance through out the day. 20/10!!!”

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
