“Keira was great helping our German shepherd. We went on a 7 day cruise and she stopped by 3 times a day and walked him. He was so sweet with her, she always sent pictures to update us & communicated regularly. Would highly recommend to anyone.”

“Katie was great with my dog while we were out of town. She gave us a detailed update on our dog with the pictures and was very responsive via text message. I will definitely ask Katie to take care of my dog next time!”

I have worked in the veterinary field for over three years and have experience working with a variety of dogs varying in age and breeds. I also grew up with dogs and cats and currently own a 4 year old German shepherd mix. I am currently going back to school online so am home for most of the day and have a super flexible schedule to accommodate your dog and give them lots of love and attention. I understand your pet is like your baby and I will treat them like they are my own. I have personal experience training dogs basic commands using positive reinforcement and have helped family and friends with their dog.

About: I have enjoyed taking care of our household pets since I was young. I have experience walking and working with dogs of various sizes. I’ve worked as a volunteer animal handler for Eagle's Den Animal Haven & Rescue, where I worked with puppies and abused animals to get them socialized, leash trained, and comfortable with people. I also have experience doing long-distance animal transport through volunteer work with Wheels4Paws and a job with New Start Animal Transport. Through all of this, I have found a passion for working with animals and I look forward to meeting you and your pup. I'm currently working part-time in the evenings. My normal start time for that job is 5:30pm. So, I'm available most days from 8:00am to 4:00pm, and late evenings after work when house/pet sitting. I try to maintain the same kind of care and routine that you have gotten your pet accustomed to. This includes sleeping arrangements, diet, feeding times, play times, and walks.
About: I have had dogs and cats growing up. I had a cat as a child and I now own 2 cats and 2 dogs. I have a 2.5 year old German Shepard and a 14 year old German Shepard mix. I have experience with small dogs and big dogs of all ages. I have watched my neighbors animals, friends, and families. I am open to spending the night and getting lots of cuddles. I am open to walking dogs as needed or just going over for a simple potty break and some cuddles. I watch many of my coworkers animals and walk them as needed on my days off. I work day shift 3 days a week at the hospital. I stack my days so I have many days off in between my 3. I also can do in house stays. I make sure my animals are always fed they are on a schedule twice a day at the same time. I always ensure that they are comfortable in their home, they have dog beds and my puppy stays in a crate to ensure her safety while I am gone. My animals always have fresh water, food and they get treats when they are being good. I will always put your animals safety first when I am out walking. My animals are always on a leash to ensure their safety and other animals. I will treat your animals as I do my own with love and care.
“Amanda is the BEST! She took such good care of our 2 kitties and shared the cutest photo and video updates as well. It’s so comforting to know your pets are in good hands, and Amanda gave them nothing but love & attention. Thank you!❤️?”

“Ollie absolutely loved Olivia! She gave him all the cuddles and was super sweet! She communicated quickly and answered any questions I had while I was out of town! I would definitely recommend booking with her!”

I am happy to host your animal, come for a check in/walk, or anything in between to ensure your time away is stress-free when it comes to care for your pet.

“Elena was perfect at meeting the needs of our two cats while we were away. She is very knowledgeable about animals and alters her care to the individual pet. Would highly recommend her services!!!”


About: Hey, y'all! I had 3 dogs for about 8 years, walked and fed them daily, I have experience with almost all dog breeds from great danes to chihuahuas! I've also had bunnies, guinea pigs, flying squirrels, hamsters, and mice! I absolutely adore cats and have experience with animals of all ages ☺️ Sitting or playing with my cats has become part of my daily routine. I loved walking my dogs when I had them because I don't go outside enough. As long as I know where food, leashes, and pet supplies are, I can guarantee your pet's safety and comfort :) I look forward to meeting you!
“Lindsay took great care of our girls while we went out of town for the weekend. She provided great care to them and we were very happy with her services. Will definitely use her services again”
About: Hi there! I'm a former veterinary technician who spent years working hands-on with animals. While I loved the work, the field could be a bit emotionally heavy at times—so I decided to step back and find a happier, more balanced way to stay close to the animals I adore. That’s what brought me to dog walking and drop-in visits! I truly enjoy long walks and runs with my own dogs, so if you have an active pup who needs a good workout, I’ve got you covered. I share my home with two big dogs and two cats, so I’m very comfortable with pets of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. All of my animals have special diets and unique needs, so I’m extra careful and experienced when it comes to following feeding instructions, administering medications, or keeping routines just right. Your pets will be treated like family—because that’s exactly how I see them. I'm an aspiring actress and also work as a bartender, which gives me a flexible schedule. I typically work Wednesdays and Thursdays from 7 PM to close, and Fridays and Saturdays from 12 PM to 7 PM. While I have other commitments throughout the week, I’m great at managing my time and can usually adjust my schedule to make room when needed. I take the care of animals very seriously—both in my home and in my clients’ homes. My own pets have taught me how important it is to be attentive, patient, and detail-oriented. I have two big dogs and two cats, all of whom have special needs. One of my dogs only has three legs and has been through extensive rehabilitation and medical care, so I’m very familiar with mobility issues, post-op routines, and the importance of adapting exercise to the animal’s capabilities. All four of my pets are on different prescription diets and medications, so I’m experienced in administering meds properly, sticking to feeding routines, and keeping a close eye on health and behavior changes. Whether I’m caring for animals in my own home or visiting yours, I bring that same level of attentiveness and compassion. Every pet is unique, and I always take the time to understand and follow their specific needs and routines to make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for.
“Dakota was amazing! I'm new in town & didn't know my dog couldn't be in my apartment while the movers unpacked my furniture. Unable to to leave work, Dakota was kind enough to accept my last minute booking. She was communicative & sent pictures & updates throughout her stay with my pup. She was great with Ka'Lani & I'll be booking with her again :)”

Amanda took amazing care of my senior cat, making sure her medication was given on time and handled with care. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was not only attentive to her needs but also spent quality time with her, giving her plenty of cuddles and comfort. She also kept me updated with lots of pictures, which I really appreciated—it made being away so much easier.

I would highly recommend Stephen to anyone looking for a pet sitter. He went above and beyond handling all my requests and providing tips on toys to help me tire out my rambunctious kittens. He also included pics of them playing which brightened up my day while I was away.
