About: I’ve had a variety of pets throughout my life that i’ve taken care of. I also have dogsat for neighbors and family! I love animals and I have so much fun hanging out with them, i love all animals! I know how hard it is to have to have someone else care for your pet, it can be scary! I assure you i can devote all my time and attention into providing the best care to your pet. I am excited to meet you and your dog! I mainly do petcare and childcare! My schedule is very flexible! I currently only have a part time job. I am almost always home, and am happy to except any bookings as long as there’s a one day notice! I make sure all pets are fed, watered, let outside, taking medication if they need it, and most importantly, i make sure they’re cuddled! (:

Stephanie was absolutely incredible. She was very communicative, she made sure to update us with pictures and videos daily (for 2 weeks!) and Albus was so sad to leave her. She made sure things were as close to home with her as possible. She welcomed my detailed, type-A notes and schedule. She went out of her way to coordinate a drop off to get him back home. I feel so good knowing that we found someone kind and reliable for our pet. I would highly recommend her and I plan to use her again in future.

About: I’ve taken care of pets my whole life! I have gotten into pet sitting more this last year and people have trusted me to stay with their animals for a week or more at a time! I love helping others who needs someone to care for their pet while they are busy. I have very open availability throughout all days of the week so I am able to visit and care for animals as frequent or as long as you would like! In my clients home I always care for their pet using the instructions they give me. I can walk them as often as you’d like and feed them on a certain schedule if needed. My biggest concern is making sure my clients feel comfortable about leaving me with their pets.

About: I started my care for animals 22 years ago in a non profit animal shelter. Since then I’ve been able to gain my experience through many different roles within the field of non profit shelter work and finally working up to a vet tech. I’ve been able to use the skills of vet tech in shelter as well as a private practice for the past 10 years. I’ve handled everything from neonates who need round the clock assistance to senior pets who need special medications/care or even I pets that are diabetic and need insulin. I’m an avid animal lover and protecter. I treat every pet as if they were my own. I have a very flexible schedule so fitting in pet care is usually no issue. Whether dropping off pets in the morning or in the evening for boarding, drop ins, walks, dog/cat sitting, I will make sure scheduling is accommodating so that every pet I care for gets the proper love, care, and attention they need. 😁❤️ I care for pets the same as if they are my own. They will be let out to potty every 2-4 hours. I have dogs and cats in my household so they would need to be friendly with other pets but I’m alway good with sitting at your home as well. I will treat your home with the same respect I give my own. I can accommodate a pet that needs to be crated as well.

About: I have been surrounded with dogs since I was born! My family had a golden retriever when I was younger, and we currently have an 11-year old corgi mix, an 8-year old labradoodle, and a 5-year old golden retriever. Finnley, the five year old golden, is my personal dog who I trained, walked, cleaned up after, and took care of. In addition, I lived with a 3-year old boxer last year who I helped take care of and spent a lot of time with. Besides my personal pet experience, I volunteered at the Partners for Pets shelters multiple times where I took care of dogs and cats. I also frequently take advantage of the Adopt a Dog for a Day option at the Oxford Animal Rescue Center whenever I feel overwhelmed or have a free day. Besides volunteering, I had a personal business at 15/16 where I watched both kids and animals for families in my neighborhood. I took care of multiple breeds and ages of dogs, cats, hamsters, and fish. My availability is completely open until June 1st, when I will start a part time job at WashU! With that said, I am still available any weekday after 4, and all day Saturday and Sunday!! At my house, all of my dogs are trained to stay in the yard. All three get treats when they come in (because they are such good boys) and are fed twice daily. My older dog has gum issues that makes his teeth painful to use, so I put his food in water and let it soften so he is able to eat it pain-free. For walks, the two big dogs go on a joint leash and the smaller dog goes on a leash by himself. Distance wise, I take into account if the ground is hot on their paws and the temperature outside to determine how long the walk will be. We love to go to dog parks and play, as well as cuddle and lay out in the sun together.

About: Pet Care Experience: As a devoted dog owner for over 30 years, I bring a lifetime of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, breeds, and personalities. I’ve raised energetic puppies, cared for senior dogs with special medical needs, and everything in between. My background includes administering medications, helping with post-surgery care, and supporting dogs with anxiety or mobility issues. Whether your pup needs playful interaction or quiet companionship, I provide calm, loving care tailored to their needs. What Sets Me Apart: I don’t just watch pets—I care for them like family. I specialize in overnight stays, offering a consistent presence and a comforting environment for your dog while you’re away. I understand how important routine and trust are, especially when you’re not home, and I take that responsibility seriously. I bring a deep understanding of dog behavior, basic obedience training, and gentle senior care. Clear communication, attention to detail, and genuine affection for animals set me apart. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine—and truly one of the most rewarding. I structure my day around walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of one-on-one attention. My flexible schedule allows me to provide reliable, consistent care, whether it’s early morning potty breaks, midday walks, or overnight stays. I treat every pet’s routine with care and attention, ensuring their needs are met on time and with love. Your dog’s comfort and consistency are always top priorities in my home and schedule. Whether your dog stays with me or I care for them in your home, I focus on creating a safe, loving, and familiar environment to help them feel at ease. In My Home: Your dog will enjoy a secure, fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play and potty breaks. I also have a friendly resident pup who loves to make new friends and help keep your dog entertained! My home is calm, clean, and pet-friendly, with plenty of cozy spots to relax. I stick to your pup’s usual feeding, walking, and sleeping schedule to maintain consistency and reduce stress while you’re away. In Your Home: If I’m staying in your home, I follow your dog’s daily routine closely—from meal times to walk schedules and special instructions like medications or bedtime routines. I treat your home with the utmost respect and offer light house-sitting services as needed. Your pet gets personalized, loving care in the comfort of their own space, and you can relax knowing everything is in great hands.

Ramona was a wonderful sitter for our two pups. She is extremely responsive and communicates frequently. We felt very comfortable having her in our home while we were away and our dogs fell in love with her. She sent lots of photos and videos of our pups and actively played with them in the house and our backyard. Ramona truly made sure they were cared for when we had a family emergency and had to leave the state quickly. I absolutely recommend her if you need someone trust worthy and honest!

Abe was great with our dog Alfie, we were searching the day before our trip because our sitter cancelled, and Abe responded quickly and showed up the next day! He hired him for a week and each day he was responsive (gave us updates and photos of Alfie) and gave our dog fun things to do. He even taught our highs-energy dog commands! Would recommend Abe for watching your dog.

Mallory always shows up and is great at communication while we are out of town. One of our pups is not great at meeting new people but Mallory knew exactly how to meet her and now they are best friends. I was nervous to use a sitter who wasn’t family, but Mallory has taken great care of our dogs and cat and I’m never worried when we are away.
