About: I’ve cared for dogs since I was 8 years old. I’m comfortable with all breeds, including Pitbulls, Rottweilers, and German Shepherds. I was raised alongside a Pitbull Terrier mix, and later went on to adopt a full blooded Pitbull. Our family had a Boxer mix for 13 years until recently, and she was in very good shape up until the end. I would love to care for your pets as I have cared for mine! When I still had my dogs, I would feed them three times a day and give them medicine up to five times a day. If they had a little too much energy, I would play with them until they were tired out. I would let them outside as often as they needed, even if they just wanted to lay out there (when the weather is nice, of course). I cared for my dogs by paying attention to their body language and vocalizations. Often times, what they needed is something simple, like to go outside or when they were ready to eat, but on rare occasions they’d act a little unusual and that was when I’d take them into the vet’s office. I always made sure my dogs are in the best health possible.

About: I've had at least four dogs as long as I can remember. As a child, they were my first companions and my second caretakers. Even as I grew into an adult, they were always there to comfort me and to brighten the darkest of days. Dogs hold a very special place in my heart and I am eager to give back what they so willingly give; love, acceptance, understanding, comfort, and joy. In the last two years, I have gone from four dogs to one, due to Cancer and Congestive Heart Failure, and I must admit that their absence has affected me deeply. I miss them so so so much!! I'm one of those people that celebrated their dog's birthdays and bought them copious presents for Christmas. While my friends were pulling out their family pics, I was always pulling out my dog pics. I share this same sentiment towards birds, rabbits, and cats; all of which I had growing up. Being surrounded by animals as a child was a great experience. It even prompted me to volunteer at the ASPCA for almost a year. As I hope you can tell, I will not only provide what your pet needs to survive, but I will also provide him/her with special attention and love. I look forward to meeting with both you and your pet! Until then, take care! I will be able to fulfill any house/pet sitting duties without any issues, as I am able to balance my obligations responsibly and with respect to myself and those that hire me. While pet/house sitting, I will abide the rules given to me. This could include when they play, where they sleep, any medications needed, when to eat, etc.

Katie was great with both pups! We were out it of town for a couple days and she was able to make multiple drop in visits to make sure the doggies were fed, watered, and had play time. She was easy to communicate with and very friendly. We would definitely recommend Katie and will be glad to have her help us again!

Kayla offered very generous rates for taking care of our cats while we were on our honeymoon. She communicated with us every day, asking clarification to make sure they were safe and happy. She also stopped one of our very outside-lovimg cats from running out the door every day. Overall, a good experience, and we really appreciated the peace of mind from seeing photos of them each day.

Mary did an incredible job watching our dogs through the holidays. We had multiple flight cancellations and Mary was so flexible and reliable, extending care until we made it home safely. She sent regular pictures which helped ease some of the anxiety I had missing the pups, and we came home to a clean home, happy and healthy dogs, and she even brought in the mail for us! We are so grateful we found her.

About: I have experience with cats of all ages (kittens to 21+), and dogs of all sizes. I’ve worked with service puppies in training, elderly cats with special diets and medication schedules, and raised several kittens. I have experience with dog-anxious dogs, older puppies, and senior dogs. I’m currently a full time MA student, and am happy to fit pet care around my teaching and class schedule! I am available on weekends and some weekdays. I have separation anxiety from my own babies, and I understand that you might as well! I provide in-home services only, so your dogs/cats are comfortably in their own space. I love to send picture updates, check in about any changes, and am used to carefully opening doors due to escape-artist cats. I am also comfortable crating dogs.

About: I have always had a love of animals since a very young age. I have one dog and a cat of my own that I cherish, so I understand the importance of wanting to find a quality pet sitter when needed. I will go above and beyond to make sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for, and I would love to send pictures and updates as frequently as needed. I love going on hikes, visiting the park, or taking trips downtown to keep my own pup active, and would love to do the same for yours! I am always pushing myself to learn more about how to better care for my own pets, and I will apply what all I learn to giving the BEST care to yours. I am evenings and some weekends for drop in care. I am not able to stay overnight. I do work full time and fit in pet care around other scheduling obligations when I can. I can take walks or spend time with your pet in your own yard. Let me know what would be best! I love playing fetch!

About: So I have been taking care of animals for most of my life, but I have been doing it seriously for the past 6 years. I own a horse and a dog of my own, plus reptiles! So I have a well-rounded amount of knowledge! I'm extremely willing to work with the animals that may need more love and attention as well 💙 I currently work part-time as a repair technician for Apple, so this would be another side job for me! I would do any of the walking/house sitting after my job and taking care of my own animals! So I would be taking advantage of any amenities you have for you animal at your home! Taking them on walks, helping with a special diet, or even spending that extra time with them at the end of the day. I can also provide daily updates and even pictures of your beloved pet!

About: I grew up on a farm with dogs, cats and horses, so animals have always been a part of my life! Besides helping out with our own animals, I worked at a dressage barn throughout high school and showed horses throughout college. I have also taken care of family and friend's dogs and cats for extended periods of time. Pets have influenced my entire life and I understand the importance of every pet's health, safety and happiness. Besides caring for my own cat, I do have a 8-5 job. Because of that, my schedule works best with weekend petsitting or after work check ins. Just check with me and I’d be happy to work with you to see what we can make happen! 🙂 I currently do not offer pet sitting services at my home, but I am excited for the opportunity to take care of pets at a client's home. I prefer to meet the pet and go over the pet's needs with an owner prior to the owner being gone, so that I'm aware of the pet's environment and how I can best take care of the pet while their owner is away.
