“So grateful for Natalie! She got our guy out for a long afternoon walk. Mac was super comfortable with her and she was very communicative and prompt.”


“Kat was such a life saver! I’ve been sick and my mom sprained her ankle so my dog was in need of a good long walk. Kat responded immediately to help, and my dog came back nice and tired from her hour long walk. My dog was in great hands with Kat - Highly recommend!”


“Lizz saved the day for us! We had a family emergency come up and had to leave town last minute. Lizz was able to cover all the walks in our absence. She gave us great feedback and won over our shy pup. Highly recommend.”


“Jean was great— able to provide a walk on short notice and showed up promptly. She clearly has experience with dogs and took my energetic Aussie in stride. He returned a happy boy! I will be hiring her again.”


“Flannery is fantastic! She sent lots of pictures and left a great review of the walk, and in addition to that she came to meet my pet before booking to make sure it would be a good fit. She goes above and beyond and you can tell that she loves to care for our pets! I 10/10 recommend Flannery for any of your pet care needs!”


About: I have experience in vet med, so I will be able to keep a detail-oriented eye on your pet's health and wellbeing. If it comes to it, I can take your beloved companion to the vet clinic while you're out of town and see to any at-home care they need, no problem. I currently make my income entirely through app-based freelance work, making it easy to interweave schedules. I can check in on your pet, go out and work for 2-3 hours, then come back again. ADHD tendencies serve me well in this situation-- I can focus on a show, a book, or working on my laptop, while still being peripherally aware of what your pet is doing, and taking time to check in and give lots of scritches and belly-rubs. I live in a shared housing situation, so I have plenty of experience leaving an environment that is not my own exactly as I found it.

About: I began volunteering at my city's animal shelter at the age of thirteen, dog walking, and I quickly began taking on more responsibilities at the shelter from there. By the time I was fifteen, I was volunteering in vet services, helping with adoption events, and doing critter care, where I socialized and took care of small animals like rabbits, rats, guinea pigs, and mice. During my time as a volunteer, I began a veterinary assisting program. I spent five days a week providing care to dogs, cats, horses, and rodents while learning proper medical procedures. Within that care, I attentively followed tailored feeding and kenneling instructions meant to keep the animals safe and healthy. Through my time at my tech school, I gained my OSHA 10 healthcare-focused certification, my HIV, Bloodborne Pathogen certification, and I graduated with my veterinary assisting certification. After graduating, I began working at my city's animal shelter as a Student Day Laborer and Veterinary Assistant, as well as pet sitting for people living in and around my city. At the animal shelter, I handled dogs with various behavioral challenges, including nipping, jumping, barking, pulling, lunging, and multiple kinds of reactivity. I maintained a clean and tidy environment by cleaning up many kinds of bodily fluids and parasites to ensure the comfort and health of the animals. During my time there, I fostered several dogs from the euthanasia list to provide them with proper enrichment and training to make them less frustrated and more adoptable. I have experience providing medical care and enrichment to puppies as young as three weeks old and senior dogs. I am a college student, but I am currently on summer break, so I am available every day except for Thursdays and Fridays. I am very flexible with my schedule when it comes to work and am willing to work with people on timing. I am capable of providing medical care and following specific feeding instructions that have been provided to me by the owner. I provide appropriate enrichment and exercise for different age ranges and breeds.

“Autumn did a great job getting nico to feel comfortable and trusting and left nicely detailed notes. I had a family emergency and had to get a dog walker quickly and Autumn was very flexible and helpful. Thank you!”


“Paulina is the best!!! Our Gracie absolutely loves her and she takes such amazing care of her! Gracie is always happy and ready for bed when we get home from work! Couldn’t ask for a more wonderful pet sitter!”


About: I have grown up with dogs and cats, and I have a cat of my own! I have always loved taking dogs out on walks and snuggling with cats. I have experience taking care of dogs and cats, and the odd reptile or bird, and I love getting the opportunity to gain more experience! I am available weekdays and weekends currently, and when school starts in late September, I will be available only on weekends and weekdays after 4pm. I live in an apartment complex that has a fence around the entire property. There’s a courtyard for dog walking/relief, and my apartment is pet friendly since I own a cat of my own. I walk dogs often, and feed my pets on every morning and night. I have a harness for my cat since he likes going outside, and I know not all cats like that. I give plenty of attention to my pets, and I might spoil them once in a while!

About: I have taken care of my two cats for a few years and grew up on a farm taking care of all kinds of animals with the same love and care as a house pet. I love all animals no matter their needs or personalities and am dedicated to taking care of your four legged family member. I am currently employed part time with a very flexible schedule and am therefore able to prioritize your beloved pet in my day to day. The only times I am unavailable are between the hours of 6-8 Tuesday and Thursday. I feel very comfortable crating if needed, clipping nails, and running with dogs to give these guys the enrichment and care they need. I have a bike to quickly access your homes when walks are needed.

About: I have cared for cats/dogs/small animals for 15+ years. Love to give them attention and exercise and make them comfortable while giving you peace of mind while you are away. My availability is wide currently as I work part-time and can accomodate varying needs. Comfortable staying in your home to give your pets care and attention. Unable to care for pet in my home currently, but will gladly care for them in your home. We will discuss your pet(s) needs in advance and ensure they get the care they deserve.

“Maddy has been an amazing addition to my busy routine! Highly recommend her. My dog doesn't usually like or trust people off of her first meeting, but she instantly fell in love with Maddy.”
