Gianna is the best! So reliable and takes the best care of our pup when we’re gone. He even ate with her while we were gone, which is a first for him! That just shows how comfortable he is with her and how good of a caretaker she is.

If you want someone to care about your animals with love and compassion Nicolas and Tamara are those people. They gave us updates played with our pug and lab. They did drop in visits for us while we were away. We felt confident and secure. We can’t thank them enough. Our 4 legged fur babies were cared for very well!

About: I have hands-on experience dog walking and pet sitting, including caring for two dogs over the past year who were easily stressed. That taught me how to stay patient, calm, and attentive to each pet’s needs. I handled their meals, gave treats, and made sure they felt comfortable and safe. I also have pets of my own, including two corgis and a cat I rescued in 2021. My dogs are very active, so I’m used to daily walks, playtime, and keeping pets engaged. I always make sure pets are well cared for, with plenty of attention and comfort. They honestly get treated like royalty. I have a flexible schedule and can make time throughout the day for visits, walks, and playtime. I make sure each pet gets attention, stays on their routine, and feels comfortable and cared for. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and taken care of. I follow their routine and pay attention to what they need. In my home, pets will be kept completely separate from my pets, so there is no contact. I also have a big fenced front and back yard for safe outdoor time. I’m very patient and make sure every pet is cared for and supervised, and the same goes for caring for them in their home.

About: Over the past 5+ years, I’ve cared for the pets of friends and family, not as a business, but as a way to support them during vacations, work trips, or emergencies. It’s something I’ve always done out of love and a genuine desire to help. My wife also grew up having different pets, including cats, dogs, and other small animals. Together, we share a strong bond with animals and a commitment to provide them with comfort, safety, and affection. I work 100% from home, which allows me to provide consistent attention and care to the pets I look after. Your dog will enjoy plenty of companionship, playtime, and bathroom breaks throughout the day. They’ll never feel alone or ignored. We live in a comfortable, pet-friendly townhouse where your pet will be treated like family. Pets are welcome on the furniture and free to roam throughout the house. There are no restrictions on movement inside, so they can relax and settle in wherever they feel most comfortable. While we don’t have a backyard, we make sure dogs get regular outdoor time with safe, on-leash walks around our quiet, secure complex and the surrounding neighborhood. We never allow pets off-leash while outside, under any circumstances, to ensure their safety at all times.

My dogs are having a great time getting to know Jennie. She sends me videos of the dogs wagging their tails and playing. She also keeps me updated on how the visits are going and sends a bunch of photos which is great! Jennie is very communicative and responsive. She has attended to all of my requests and followed any instructions I have provided. Jennie has been a pleasure to interact with and I’m glad my dogs have responded so well to her care. I highly recommend Jennie!

About: Hello! I have a lifelong passion for caring for animals. From a young age, I've been surrounded by pet bunnies, cats, dogs and lizards. I would like to keep taking care of your furry family members and, my number 1 priority is to make sure they're happy, healthy, and loved. It's not just me though, my boyfriend, Gill A. also joins me on these sits, so your furry friend gets double the love! As dedicated pet caregivers, we understand certain pets unique needs and preferences. Whether providing nourishing meals, engaging in interactive play sessions, or offering gentle companionship and cuddles! If your pet happens to be a lizard, maybe no cuddling, but we will make sure they are well fed and happy! In addition to essential care tasks, we both offer various fun activities, specifically to cats and dogs so that they are entertained and mentally stimulated. This may include interactive toy play, puzzle feeders, and laser point games. For dogs, this would include playing some tug of war, fetch, or frisbee! Every pet deserves the best care possible, and we are here to provide just that. If you need caring and responsible sitters who will treat your furry friend like family, please don't hesitate to reach out. We would be honored to care for your beloved furry family member! Pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine, as I am a full-time student with flexibility in the afternoons, starting from 3 PM. This allows me to dedicate focused time and attention to pets, ensuring they receive the care, exercise, and companionship they deserve For in-home pet care, we prioritize creating a safe, comfortable environment for pets. This includes regular feeding, providing fresh water, administering medications if needed, and ensuring plenty of playtime and affection. Additionally, we maintain cleanliness by cleaning litter boxes, disposing of waste, and keeping living areas tidy. We also offer personalized attention and follow the owner's specific care instructions to ensure their pet's well-being and happiness.

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes for years, both personally and professionally. I previously worked in a grooming salon where I regularly handled large and giant breeds, helped with bathing and nail trims, and worked with dogs with different temperaments and energy levels. Friends and family have also relied on me to feed, walk, play with, and check in on their pets over the years. I understand how important it is to have someone patient, reliable, and attentive caring for your pet, and I always try to make animals feel safe and comfortable with me. I currently have a flexible schedule and make pet care a priority in my routine. I’m available for daytime, evening, and weekend care depending on the booking. I always try to give pets plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, and check-ins throughout the day. I always do my best to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own environment. I pay close attention to routines, feeding instructions, medications, energy levels, and body language so pets can stay as stress-free as possible while you’re away. I also have experience working with dogs of different sizes, temperaments, and energy levels through grooming salon work and personal pet care.

As always, Jodi did a fantastic job. I was out of the country for the third time, and she always made sure that my cat received great care on each drop-in visit. I really appreciated her communication and snapshots of my cat. I will continue to use her services.

About: I have experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I’ve helped with daily walks, feeding, playtime, and making sure pets feel comfortable and safe in their environment. I’m attentive to each pet’s needs and routines, whether that means high-energy play or a calm, relaxed approach. I also understand the importance of communication with owners and will always provide updates and ensure your pet is well cared for while you’re away. I’m currently in school part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for pets. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I’m able to provide consistent attention, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. I’m reliable, organized, and make pet care a priority in my weekly schedule. I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment in every home. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, including feeding, exercise, medications, and any special instructions. I make sure the space is secure—doors and gates are checked, hazards are removed, and pets are always supervised during walks or play. In a client’s home, I respect their space and keep everything clean and organized while maintaining the pet’s normal routine to reduce stress. In my home, pets have a safe, comfortable area with plenty of supervision, attention, and a pet-friendly environment. I build trust by staying attentive, communicating regularly with updates and photos, and making sure each pet feels safe, relaxed, and well cared for.
