About: Hello my name is Sophia! I have been taking care of my own pets for my whole life, not just cats and dogs. I am a full time college student that loves animals. I am a full time college student living at home I am available for visits in the mornings, some afternoons and always night. Though my schedule is busy I am always flexible. In my home, I provide a comfortable and pet-friendly environment for your furry friends. They will have their designated space, regular walks, playtime, and personalized care routines. In your home, I adapt to your pet's familiar surroundings, maintaining their routines, feeding schedules, and ensuring they receive the attention and love they need. My approach is flexible and tailored to meet the unique needs of each pet and client I serve.
“I cannot thank Lucas enough. Far exceeded my expectations, we will 100% be a repeat customer. Two-week trip, our anxious dog loved Lucas and clearly felt safe amd cared for. Detailed updates, even cleaned up the house (and the sheets on the bed he used) before we returned! Highest recommendation”
About: I have and do care for my dog and families dogs over long periods of time; including family friends dogs with medical needs at their own homes overnight I am able to check on animals before and after work shifts, and with ample advance i can arrange my work schedule to meet the needs of dogs routines and their owners I myself have my dog mostly kept indoors, and let outside on a leash within a large backyard. Family friends dogs were watched heavily and let out with supervision, even in large fenced in yards
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and treat every pet like my own. My first dog, Jack (a Bichon-Poodle), joined our family when I was six. Then came Lilly, a 60-pound mutt I helped train from a puppy. Later, I cared for a rescued kitten named Chef, who we bottle-fed from two days old. I lived with him for two years in Florida. While living in Europe, I was the primary caregiver for Foksi, a 35-pound rescue dog from Russia, for three years between Belgium and Italy. She was already house-trained and knew basic commands, but I continued her training from about a year old and handled all her daily care. If your dog is used to certain commands, just let me know — I’m happy to keep up their routine and reinforce training during walks or visits. I’m active, reliable, and love getting outside for long walks or playtime. I work part-time and have a flexible schedule, so your pet will get focused attention. Whether it’s puppy energy or senior care, I’m comfortable handling it and will make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for. I recently relocated back to the U.S. and am currently building my dog care business while searching for full-time remote work. In the meantime, I have open availability and can be flexible to meet your needs. As I grow my client base, I’ll work toward a consistent schedule—but for now, I’m new to the local market and fully available for walks, drop-ins, and sitting. I provide care only at the client’s home or during walks. I’ll follow any rules or routines you have in place to make sure your pet is comfortable, safe, and relaxed.
About: Hello! My preferred names to go by is Max as you might see in my testimonials! I volunteered at an animal sanctuary that had chickens, geese, swans, goats, horses, & alpacas. I have experience in dog sitting & grooming every kind of breed. I took care of ferrets as well! Cute little guys running through tubes. I have a ton of experience cat sitting as well. I even briefly worked at a cat cafe! I also have 2 of my own. Litter boxes don’t scare me! I would never force any kind interactions based off of any of the animals behaviors, unless if they would want that! I’m all about approaching with love, patience, & playfulness! I currently have open availability. I don’t have proper space to board your animals at my house but I don’t mind traveling to yours at all. It all depends on the pet, but I would approach first with a hand sniff & see if they are okay with me petting them. I also think it’s a really great idea to do a practice trial run with the owner there at first so they can meet me & warm up to me!
“Emily did a wonderful job with my dogs and keeping me updated and sending photos of them! Our one dog is recovering from surgery and needed some special care and Emily managed fine! We will definitely contact her again for future needs.”
“Mike is the absolute best dog sitter you will find! He’s so attentive and sent so many updates/pictures/videos, I knew my dog was having the time of her life with him!! He will be my first go to when Lola needs a sitter from now on, he’s incredible!!”
About: I have had and cared for dogs since I was in middle school. I have experience house- and pet-sitting for a variety of dogs, cats, chickens, and ferrets, including giving medication and following special diets. I currently work in wildlife animal care and am in school training to be a vet tech. I have great attention to detail and a heart big enough for all of the creatures! I work full-time with two days off a week (Monday/Tuesday). That being said my schedule is pretty flexible, and depending on the location, I can also drop in at lunch time to check in and/or go for a walk. Not only will I take care of your pet, but I will take care of your home as well. I will leave it as clean as I found it, if not cleaner. I will follow any and all instructions as to care/rules of the household and make sure your pet is as comfortable as possible while you are away.
About: I love all animals more than I can even grasp, and nothing is too big of an ask for them. I’m a larger man so if they need to be picked up to be brought outside or anything were I would have to go the extra mile for them, I gladly will. My schedule isn’t the hardest to work around so you let me know what works best for you and I’ll handle the rest!! I’m mainly free during the week but working weekends doesn’t scare me. Ill make sure your pet gets more then enough play time, nothing is worse then having energy you can’t do anything with! Long walks don’t bother me at all and if your pet has toys I’ll find there favorite one!

Marc V.
“Marc is a huge animal guy. He has taken care of both of my cats as well as my 60-pound golden retriever puppy for an extended period of time and has done an excellent job doing so. My dog is definitely a little crazy and energetic, however Marc knows exactly how to handle him with little to no instructions from me. He was willing to take my dog on long walks as well as play with him indoors and outdoors to tire him out. Not only is he great with the dog, but he also understands how to interact with the cats by giving them the attention they want on their terms. Marc is a great dog walker and pet sitter whom I will always be willing to trust to look after my fur babies.”
