About: I’ve had dogs of my own my whole life and taken care of neighbors pets as well. I’ve done drop in visits and walks for neighbors dogs and cats while they were away. I currently have a dog of my own named Leo he’s a super sweet boxer lab mix who’s great with all animals and people. This summer I am free a lot and can make my schedule work around any drop ins and walks. I just need a day or two notice so I can plan around everything but I look forward to working with your pets. I love animals especially dogs. I’ve always been very kind to animals making sure they feel safe with me and know I want to care for them. I like to make sure dogs understand me and that can create some trust and build a good relationship.

About: I grew up in a household with many pets of all kinds, I’ve volunteered at an animal shelter, worked in a pet store, and even worked with some exotic animals too. I’m comfortable around animals and I work hard to insure they feel safe and active with me. I am able to read a pet’s body language and communicate well both verbally and nonverbally. Every animal is different and has their own unique personality, and it’s a joy and reward to get to know each one. I have a flexible schedule and have experience long term housesitting (up to a month at a time). I am self-employed, so my schedule is quite flexible to accommodate your pets usual routines! I will generally be out and about at different times throughout the day, depending on errands and work. I will always keep you posted if I’ll be gone for more than a few hours at a time! I follow all instructions given to me on pet/home care. I treat the animals and home as if they were my own. I am a neat & tidy person, generally a homebody in the evenings, and I am a respectful sitter of both my clients and their lovely pets.

About: Hi! I’m Maya, and caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life. I’ve had dogs since I was a child and have years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats of different personalities, sizes, and energy levels. Family and friends regularly rely on me to feed, walk, bathe, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away, and I truly enjoy creating a safe, loving, and comfortable environment for every animal in my care. currently work full-time Monday–Friday from 7:30 AM–4:30 PM, but I’m available during weekday evenings and weekends. I’m flexible whenever possible and happy to coordinate schedules to best fit you and your pet’s needs. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I always prioritize patience, attentiveness, safety, and communication. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply a calm companion, I’ll make sure they feel happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. All furry friends are welcome! 🐾

We couldn't be happier with Hannah's service! She was incredibly personable, and our dog Milo instantly fell in love with her. He can't wait for her to come back! Hannah went above and beyond in caring for our senior Belgian Shepherd/Lab mix, who has a range of special needs. Her attention to detail and genuine compassion made us feel so at ease, knowing Milo was in such capable hands. We highly recommend Hannah to anyone looking for a top-notch pet sitter. She's simply amazing!

I am a recent college graduate with open availability. As the job hunt is extremely difficult, I am very flexible to fit you and your animals needs!

About: I have always had a pet dog and ever since I was a teenager, I’d dog-sit for family and neighbors. Since college, I’ve been pet-sitting ajd dog walking on a more professional level. I’ve babysat for a few hours, simply for a walk, but have also watched multiple high energy dogs for up to two weeks. I’ve cared for dogs under a year old and up to 13 years old. I’ve always loved dogs and find them very easy to get along with and care for no matter their size, age, or personality. I have also cared for kittens a few weeks old, senior cats, administering medication orally, grooming them if they have long hair etc. Cats have a very different energy than dogs but I enjoy taking care of them just as much as dogs. I am currently in between jobs so I have a lot of free time to care for other dogs, whether it is a short walk or a multi-hour play date, etc. I always follow whatever guidance I am provided by pet parents. This means if you are only comfortable with your dog on a leash or lead while in your yard, I strictly follow that. If there are specific commands to use, certain behavior to watch out for or discourage, particular toys or activities they enjoy, I always follow what information I am given and am always open and communicate well about any issues or concerns that might arise on my end.

About: I have experience with all kinds of dogs of all sizes. I have owned 3 pitbulls so I for sure know how to handle dogs that size. I also have a park near my house that is very discrete where the dogs can come roam around. It is fenced and barely anyone ever goes to. I used to bring my dogs over there when I had them. I am available full time if needed. I work from home. I can do pick up & drop as well. Please let me know, it would be my pleasure! I care for the dog as if they are my own. I know animals can become family, just as mine have became family. I will go accordingly to your dogs schedules and make sure they have the best care.

About: Hey there! I’m Milo, a pet sitter of 6 years, and a dog walker since childhood. I have a diverse range of experience with all ages and breeds of dogs, and am confident that I can find a way to work well alongside your pup! Whether a quick check in for a game and a potty break, a 30 minute walk around town, or a few overnights so they never get lonely, I am excited to get to know your furry friends and give them the best day possible! I work part time at a dog daycare, where I am responsible for working with up to 45 dogs at once. This means that I will be able to give your pup corrections in the right way, as well as being able to handle any stubborn, stressed, or scared temperaments. I am comfortable with dogs of all ages and sizes, as well as high energy or low/stubborn energy. I am not grossed out easily, so any pups with stomach issues are in great hands. Feel free to ask about medication administration if needed as well! I am open to any and all questions, so please reach out so we can make a good match! I am currently a college student working part time, but with close visits I can fit in a walk or potty break almost anytime during the week. Overnights are available Thursday through Sunday, or upon special request. Any scheduling issues please reach out, as my schedule is flexible. I am happy to settle into any type of home, and with the appropriate fenced yard I can play, run, or even just watch from afar to meet your pups needs. I am able to administer medications upon request, and will make sure they are in bed on schedule if I am staying overnight. Overall I am simply happy to adjust and be flexible to meet any of your pups needs.

About: I've had a passion for caring for animals ever since I can remember. I would often pet sit for friends and family and I quickly learned I wanted to spend my life working with animals. Fast forward to the present, I am a full-time pet sitter that keeps a special place in my heart for each and every four-legged friend I've been able to care for! Pet care is my full-time job, so your pet is my top priority! I am available every weekday, weekends, and most holidays. I am available for overnight stays and drop-in visits. Overnight stays allow your pet to have someone there all day and all night to get the love they need while you can't be there; and drop-in visits allow your pet to get the care they need at the times they are used to at a frequency you pick. Feel at ease knowing your pet is in the comfort of their own home able to carry out their normal routine- whatever feeding, potty, and walk times your furry friend is used to.

Brittany’s amazing and I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing my cats were in great care! She took the time to go out of her way and stop over for a meet and greet before we left which made me feel at ease. Great communication and sent pictures of our cats snuggling up. One of my cats is shy to warm up to new people but she truly is an animal whisperer and he was laying down right by her feet the second he met her! Thanks Brittany!

Riley was awesome! We contacted her kind of last-minute, but she made time to meet us and our cat before our trip and then accommodated our drop-in needs through the week. She's responsive, trustworthy, and caring, which went a long way toward mitigating our cat's usual grumpiness when we go away. We highly recommend Riley to others in the area!

Liz was awesome, it was the first time we’ve left our German Shepherd alone because we always travel with our dogs. This trip we went across country and we were unable to take them. Immediately Liz made us feel very comfortable by sending pictures and comments about how he was doing. When we got home our dog Sig was consistency bugging us for treats, so I believe Liz may have spoiled him a bit. But in all seriousness, she was great to our family member and we appreciate it and would definitely hire her again.

We are very thankful to have found Shea to care for our pups while we are away! Having a high energy rescue pup we had been limited in our ability to do much traveling. Shea came for a meet and greet and after spending a short time with us we were all calm and comfortable. Shea has helped us several times and each time we have come back to a tidy home and happy, well-adjusted doggies! Thank you Shea.

Mary is an amaaaaaaazing person and was extremely helpful with Bhairava. She was super flexible and always there to help, even with my last minute changes. She has been a great support for me and I am glad to have found her. I will definitely recommend her highly, and I look forward to having her take care of Bhairava again, soon!
