About: Ever since I was a child I always had pets including both cats and dogs. I started caring for animals at the age of 7. Friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and to look after their furry loved ones. As of right now I have 3 fluffy cats, but I am away for college. I have a lot of free time even being a part time college student. I have professional experience with grooming services for 2 years. I’m currently a part time college student but I have a lot of down time to care for furry loved ones. I am booked for most of the morning due to classes but available in the afternoon and sometimes night times. I respect each and every home. All I want to do is to ensure a safe and loving environment for your animal(s). As I expressed before, I have animals of my own and I wouldn’t want anything but the best for them. I will try and provide the best possible care!

I’m absolutely never worried about my cats with Kathy on the job! Even my shy girl loves her, which is a hard thing to accomplish! She’s awesome, highly recommended :)

About: I have taken care of pets since I was young girl. I also have worked as a Veterinary Technician on Langley Air Force Base. I enjoy pet sitting all kinds of animals, especially dogs and cats. I am retired and involved in some weekly activities, so pet sitting fits perfectly with my schedule. I enjoy the freedom and flexibility of pet sitting, not to mention the joy of being around pets. I am attentive, detail oriented and versatile. I believe in leaving things the way I found them, or better. I always strife to do my best at whatever I do, and I am a very trustworthy person.

Nicole was a blessing in a pinch. We needed last minute care and reached out to her. She was very responsive and replied back in a timely manner. She took such great care of our Tava. She meds sure her emotional and physical needs were met. We received so many photos when updates were sent. Each time our Tava looked happy and stimulated. We will definitely be using her services again if she is available.

About: I have been taking care of cats and dogs my whole life, but I love animals of every kind. As a biology student who can't have any pets of my own at school, I'll treat your pets like my family! I am taking organic chemistry over the summer, so my schedule will be very flexible. I am an early riser, so morning walks are not an issue for me. I am happy to make multiple visits to your pet each day! For dogs, I walk and feed them regularly and make sure they get as much exercise and socialization as they need. For cats, I feed them regularly, clean litter boxes, and give them space unless they want to be my friend. I will not touch any personal belongings unless I have permission to do so, and I will ensure the security of your home by locking doors and keeping all client information confidential. I am very reliable and I will care for your pet like they are my own!

About: I have had a love for animals my whole life! Throughout my summers in high school I volunteered at GMHS as a way to give my time back to the community. I now have a 3 year old Jack Russell/Beagle mix named Nova, and we do everything together. I also have 2 cats Jake & Bailey, and a Leopard Gecko named Leia. I do work full time M-F, however I dedicate my weekends to spending time taking Nova on longer walks and having extended play time, and she loves having guest! I will treat your pets as if they were my own. I usually take Nova out to parks often, and out for play time in our back yard. She is very welcoming to guest and loves having someone to play with. If you are comfortable Nova and I would love to have guest join our walks and play times!

Monica is the best, she’s the Rover momma that other Rover mommas pick for their fur babies! My fat cat adores her and does so much better when I travel if Monica comes by. He has made it very obvious that he is Monica’s biggest fan!

Carissa is amazing! We have a very shy cat and he started warming up to her within just a couple of visits. She cleaned the litter box, made sure his food/water was full, and spent time playing with him. She’s quick to respond, leaves great notes after each visit, and sends pictures and videos during every visit! I’d highly recommend her and will definitely be reaching out to her again next time we need someone to take care of our fur baby! :)

About: Dog lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets since age 16. I currently own two small dogs that I potty trained and crate trained myself. Friends, family, and neighbors regularly trust me with their pets. Since I’m home full-time, dogs receive constant supervision, frequent potty breaks, playtime, and lots of love and attention. 🐶💕 As a stay-at-home wife, I am home full-time and able to provide flexible scheduling, constant supervision, and plenty of attention for your pet. I am available every day of the week except Wednesdays, making it easy to accommodate most boarding, daycare, and pet-sitting needs. Your pet will be welcomed into a safe, loving, and comfortable home environment. I have two small, friendly dogs who enjoy making new friends, along with plenty of toys and enrichment throughout the day. Crates are available if needed, and pets can enjoy supervised outdoor time in my yard while on a leash. Every dog in my care is treated like family and receives lots of attention, affection, and quality care. 🐾💕

About: I am an animal lover & have taken care of dogs, cats, fish, lizards, birds, bunnies, guinea pigs, hamsters, pigs, goats, cows, & horses. I have had the honor & privilege of having several 4 legged family members to love & care for in my lifetime but currently do not have any of my own so I would be grateful for the opportunity to love and care for your animals when you are away. I work full-time sometimes from home so I will do my best to accommodate my clients & fur-babies schedules & needs if possible for the days requested. I am interested in walking dogs for clients, follow agreed-upon routes, schedules & dispose of waste. I will pay attention to details and be sure they have food and water and dispose of their waste. I will gladly provide companionship & care in your absence. I am a responsible & reliable individual that you can trust for taking care of your fur-babies & even to the veterinarian in the event of an emergency. I am a non-smoker, non-vaper, non-drinker & non-drug user.

Rhianna took great care of our very shy, skittish cat. He usually hides when new people enter the apartment. She was able to find him each day and even sent me pictures! I’m happy with the care she gave our cat, Toast!

About: I am a certified, professional dog trainer, through the Victoria Stilwell Academy, a Pat Miller Certified Trainer and, have an 3rd certification through the Certification Council of Professional Dog Trainers. I only believe in Positive Reinforcement/Force Free training. Dogs are my life! If you have any behaviors you would like me to work on while they are with me let me know. If your pup comes to stay in my home, they will be treated like one of the family. They will receive all the love and attention they get at home. Plus they will have 2 playmates, my pups Sophie and Vinny! Let's talk and see if your pup will fit into our little family. You can rest assured they will be happy and healthy in our home. I do ask that we do a meet and greet with my dogs before I accept any appointments. Looking forward to meeting you and your pup! I am retired from the Air Force and own my own dog training business. So I set my own schedule and can give your pup all the attention it needs. I have a fully fenced yard and two very friendly dogs. Vinny will play all day if your pup wants to, but he is very respectful if they are not as active. Sophie is very independent and like to lounge around the house. Your dog will never be left alone with my dogs if I have to leave the house. I always separate the dogs when I leave, just in case anyone gets grumpy.

Danny was so great taking care of my partner and I’s cat. He took care of her just like we would’ve and was patient and gentle with her, as she can be super shy at first. We will definitely recommend him to others!
