I am very familiar with the area including trails and parks. I am a caring person who knows how special pets are to their humans and other pets in the home. I will keep your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness a priority.

About: I have had pets as part of my family my whole life. I treat each one I meet like they are my own and have provided care for friends and family throughout the years. During college I helped pet sitting future guiding eyes for the blind dogs. My current dog is now a senior at 11 yo American Bully. We have struggled with allergies since the day I adopted him at 10 months old. I know how to pay extra attention to skin and ear and can administer oral or topically meds. I work remote and have a flexible schedule. During your busy days I can provide drop ins for a bathroom breaks, play time, extra cuddles, and/or a walk. When I’m with your pets and in their space I will provide a safe and kind environment. They should never feel uncomfortable or nervous. As my dog has aged he has become more cautious, causing me to have to be more aware and respectful of the situations he’s in.

About: Hi, I'm Meredith! I am an experienced, caring, and trustworthy petsitter. But don't take my word for it! Here's what others have said: "Meredith truly cared about my pets, and I felt completely at ease being away. As someone who’s very picky about who takes care of my dogs, I can wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter." "Meredith brought peace of mind, warmth, and reliability to our home. I’d trust her with our pets anytime." "Her calm energy and loving nature were exactly what our anxious rescue needed." "Meredith was fantastic. She cared for our home and animals as if they were her own." I’d love the opportunity to care for YOUR pets and your home! Animals have always been a central part of my life. I grew up in a house full of beloved cats and dogs, and I’ve raised several pets of my own as an adult, so caring for animals is truly second nature. I started pet sitting professionally in my 20s and recently returned to it with renewed passion and dedication. I now have over 7 years of direct pet-sitting experience and a lifetime of hands-on care with animals of all ages, temperaments, and personalities. As a responsible, organized, and nurturing high school English teacher with 20 years in the classroom, I bring calm attentiveness and excellent communication to every sit. I’m also a devoted mom to two kind-hearted, respectful animal lovers (ages 8 and 11), who may occasionally accompany me depending on the arrangement. If they do, rest assured they are gentle, supervised, and bring extra love to the experience. Whether it's administering medication to a senior pet, giving special attention to a rescue, or sticking to your pet’s unique routines and needs, I approach every sit with genuine care and commitment. I’m also experienced in basic training, gentle leash walking, and giving animals the calm, consistent presence they need to feel safe. If you have houseplants, I’ve got you covered there, too. I worked in my family’s garden center for years and enjoy keeping plants healthy and thriving. While I’m newer to this platform, I take each sit seriously and treat every home and pet with the utmost respect. I do not smoke, drink, or use drugs of any kind, and I always bring my own groceries and supplies. Communication is clear before, during, and after the stay, and you'll receive regular updates to give you peace of mind. I’m in a meaningful season of transition and using this time to do something I genuinely enjoy: caring for animals while exploring new places. This work blends my love of travel and nurturing in a way that reflects my values. If you feel we might be a good fit, I’d love to connect virtually or in person, when possible. Looking forward to meeting you and your beloved companions! Pet care is a natural, joyful part of my everyday rhythm. As a longtime teacher and mom, I’m used to creating routines that are structured yet flexible, making it easy to adapt to the unique needs of each pet and home. Whether it’s morning walks, medication schedules, mealtime routines, or play and snuggle time, I build my days around ensuring animals feel safe, loved, and cared for. Because I’m in a season of life where I have more flexibility, I’m able to be fully present with the pets I care for and enjoy giving them plenty of attention, consistency, and calm companionship throughout the day. It’s more than just a task in my routine; it’s a grounding and fulfilling part of my life that I genuinely enjoy. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining the routines and environment your pet already knows and loves. I follow all instructions closely, whether that means administering medications, preparing special meals, sticking to walk schedules, or providing quiet companionship. I aim to create a calm, consistent atmosphere that feels safe and nurturing, so your pet can relax while you're away. Also, I treat your home with the same respect and care I would my own. I’m clean, organized, and attentive to details, and I always communicate clearly throughout the sit to keep you informed and at ease. If my well-behaved, animal-loving children (ages 8 and 11) accompany me, it’s only with prior agreement, and they are gentle, respectful, and supervised at all times. Above all, I care for each animal as if they were my own, with patience, love, and a genuine commitment to their well-being.

About: I have worked with dogs for 4+ years to become service dogs and I have spent about half that time volunteering as an urgent responder for sick dogs. My Monday, Wednesday, Thursday evenings are busy from 5-8 but I am otherwise flexible! I’m a college student home for the summer so I am willing to work with you on timing. I have a very large fenced in yard with lots of walking trains and places for dogs to adventure. I do have a dog in the home but they will never be left unsupervised and can easily keep them separated. My personal dog is well mannered and not intact. Safety is always my priority, dogs are always leashed and never unsupervised.

“Kari was easy to communicate with and was a caring, dedicated sitter for our dog over our week-long vacation. She was a great resource when we needed someone at the last moment because our dog was sick and couldn't be boarded. Thank you and great job, Kari!”

About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats my entire life—owning both personally! I also have extensive experience caring for senior dogs and cats. I’m currently working part time, so I have plenty of time to hang out, play with, and take care of your precious doggo or gatos! I have a spacious apartment with tons of room to lounge in. It has a huge comfy couch that pets are welcome to nap on. My complex also has a large, quiet, rarely-used dog enclosure that’s perfect for throwing the ball and getting some exercise in. I also live near the River Walk in downtown Hillsborough, which is perfect for sunny walks.

“Thanks Jennifer. Lucy B seems very happy when I get home. Glad Peppa and her got along well.”

Julie T.

“Alex took care of my dog, walking her while I was at work. She did a great job, and communicated with me promptly. I hired her through Rover, and I plan to hire her again in the future.”

About: I've had dogs as pets since I've been a little girl so hand in hand. I've taken care of dogs since I've been a little girl. Every time my dad goes out of town. I watch the animals. I watch the neighbors dogs. Animals always love me because I treat them with the utmost respect and like my own children. I will make sure your dog uses the bathroom regularly. I will walk them if needed and I will show them lots of love so they will not even be sad while you are away. I can even take pictures with your dog and send you pictures and little updates in case you miss your little furry friend while you're on your trip. I love dogs so much and I've always wanted to make money doing something I love. That's why I have come to this app to work. Pet care fits in my daily and weekly routine. Right now I am in college and only have to focus on taking classes. So I have a lot of free time. Other than that, I have my own transportation and I can travel to different cities to watch your pets and your home!. I care for pets with the upmost respect. I follow all the rules given. If I have any questions at all I will text and call immediately. If watching your home I can also do some cleaning for you for when you get back so everything is in order.
