About: I’ve been pet sitting for over 21 years. I’ve watched all kind of animals from dogs, fish, cats, squirrels and even tarantulas. I walk, feed, play with, medicate and some times bath the animals I take care of. I also will bring in mail, packages and water plants. I’ve taken care of animals of all ages from puppies and kittens to elderly animals. I will mostly being able work around a normal school schedules of pickups, drop-offs, and a few volunteer events. Available mostly year round except for Memorial Day Weekend. In home sitting is not available. However I will be able to visit a client's home and maintain a sense of routine with feeding, carrying and playing with any pets.

Tenay followed every instruction to a t and went above and beyond for them. She sent a bunch of updates and videos of our babies and was in constant communication. Thank you so much for taking such good care of our furbabies 💜 We will definitely use Tenay again for any future pet sitting needs.”
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. Whenever family members or friends needed anyone to watch their dog I was the first person they’d call. I treat animals like people because they have feelings too. I’m currently looking for a new job so I'm free to do walks in the morning. I’m usually free in the evenings if ever needed to watch your pets at night. Whenever watching other people’s pet I usually ask how they want me to take care of them. Usually I try to keep my dog and the clients separated in the beginning.I’ll spend time with them equally then slowly work up to see how they do together. I usually walk Atticus around the neighborhood at the end of the day. I’ll walk him in the mornings and afternoon with him in the backyard.
About: I've owned pets my entire life. I have personal experience caring for a range of dogs from Mastiffs to chihuahuas. I also own 3 cats. I currently have a flex work schedule the allows me to leave work during the day or early if I need to check on animals! I live in a gated community, with a gated dog park across the street. My balcony is blocked off to prevent cats from jumping off.
“Jackie provided excellent pet sitting for my cat while away on vacation. She knew how to become friends with a nervous cat and provided top level care. Provided update photos and stories which were appreciated!”
About: I have owned dogs my whole life, mostly labs but have experience with other dog types as well. All dogs have a special place in my heart. I like to make your pet feel as if my home is their home as well. Any time your dog stays with me they will be treated just as I treat my own dog, with love, care, and compassion. I enjoy going on walks and would happy to take your dog on a neighborhood walk with me. I am happy to accommodate any other special requests you may have for your dogs visit. We have a dog park close by that I enjoy going to as well. Whether you are going out of town for a night or a week, I’d be happy to care for your pet My husband and I work Monday through Friday but have weekends and nights off. So your animal should be able to be alone for 8 hours. But on weekends and nights we enjoy going for walks or out to the dog park to exercise and play I have a fenced yard but dont leave animals outside by themselves. I will treat your dog just as I treat my own. I have a crate if your animal needs one it feels safer being in one.
About: What sets me apart is the level of care, patience, and attention I give to every pet as if they were my own. I’m very observant and take time to understand each dog’s personality, routine, and needs—whether they’re energetic puppies or calm senior dogs. I have experience with puppy care, including helping reinforce basic training, potty routines, and providing structured play and rest. I’m also comfortable caring for senior dogs, including slower walks, medication reminders, extra comfort, and gentle handling. I’m reliable, communicative, and I prioritize keeping pet parents at ease by sending regular updates and photos. Safety, consistency, and creating a calm, loving environment are extremely important to me. I genuinely enjoy building trust with both pets and their owners, and I take pride in being someone families can depend on. I am currently a college student in school online so I have so much free time to cater to your dog’s needs! I have open availability all during the week and even on the weekends. I am willing to take them to a nearby dog park or walk them as many times as you would like me to! Your fur baby’s needs & making both parents + pup(s) feel comfortable are so important to me!
“David dropped in on our cat when we had to head out on short notice. As usual, our cat loved him, and we had no concerns while traveling! David provides us with peace of mind!!”
