“I admit to being a nervous fur Momma. My babies not only loved Kayci, but her doggies and mine play very well together. We searched for 2 years for a replacement to our previous (who rudely moved to Florida. The nerve!) sitter. We were starting to thing our old sitter was a unicorn. Then we found Kayci! We had our first date day in 2 years. I didn't worry once! She's sweet, caring and very attentive. We found another unicorn 🦄”
“We feel so fortunate to have found Bradley! From the moment we arrived, he warmly welcomed me into his home and showed me the backyard, which immediately put me at ease about leaving Dr. Z. Despite having three dogs and a cat, the home was calm and peaceful. Bradley was very communicative throughout the stay and sent regular photos. Dr. Z was clearly well cared for and got along great with Bradley's fur family.”
“Ava has been sitting for my puppy for two weeks, and she has been great. She has great communication and provides updates and pictures throughout the day. I’m glad my puppy got along with her dogs, because socialization is important. I will continue to book with Ava!”
“Booked last minute. Quick to respond and excellent communication. My dog is very shy and timid so I’m glad he was able to get comfortable and be himself with her. Definitely will book again if I need the help! Thank y'all again for looking after Nike.”

They watched Lyla for two separate days and on the second day Lyla practically jumped in Emily’s arms with excitement. trustworthy, flexible and good communication. Thank you Emily!”
“Shadow loved staying with this family! Daily photos and good communication!”
About: I have had a dog since I was 11 years old and I have always taken the time to help people out with their animals :) I love to volunteer at animals shelters and surround myself with furry friends! I am currently out of school for the summer! All of June is free and the beginning of July. Just let me know at least a day beforehand if you need a sitter! I have a lot of free time now and trying to save up for college that I am starting this August! In my household I care for my pet by giving her lots of love and I will do that for your pets too. I will exercise, feed, watch over your pets!

“Megan did a really good job taking care of our puppy. Sent pictures regularly and kept us informed all the time during sitting! I appreciate your help Megan!”
“Naydamar was super friendly and very patient with my dog. He is super shy around new people and she took her time with him. She sent photos and a video of his time with her and he looked like he was having fun. Her dog Milo is super friendly and probably made it an easier transition for my dog.

About: With over a decade of personal pet ownership and a lifetime of growing up with cats and dogs, I bring extensive experience and genuine love for animals to my pet care services. As a proud owner of an 4-year-old American Bully with a heart murmur, I understand the unique needs and challenges of providing around-the-clock care. What sets me apart from other sitters is my exceptional dedication and specialized knowledge in senior and special needs care. Having cared for my beloved American Bully with a heart murmur, I am well-versed in administering medications, monitoring vital signs, and providing the attentive care required for pets with health conditions. I am committed to ensuring their comfort, well-being, and quality of life. Additionally, I have honed my skills in puppy training, helping young furry friends develop good behavior, obedience, and socialization. I understand the importance of positive reinforcement and patience in shaping their early experiences. When you entrust your pets to me, you can rest assured that they will receive the essential care, warmth, compassion, and understanding from a genuine animal lover. Your pets' happiness, safety, and health will always be my top priorities, providing you with peace of mind while you're away. I work from home so I can give your dog the full attention and care that it needs daily. I love taking them on walks or playing fetch in the yard. Ensuring the safety, trust, and well-being of your beloved pets is my top priority, whether they are in my home or yours. Here's how I provide exceptional care in both environments: In My Home: * Safe and Secure Environment: My home is equipped with a fenced-in backyard, providing a secure space for your dogs to play, exercise, and explore freely while being safely contained within the boundaries. * Access to a Dog Park: Conveniently located down the street from my house, there is a dog park where your furry friends can enjoy off-leash fun, socialization, and engaging activities. Regular visits to the dog park will allow them to burn off energy and interact with other friendly dogs. * Ample Space Indoors: Inside my home, there is plenty of room for your pets to move around comfortably. They will have access to designated areas where they can relax, play with toys, or simply enjoy quality downtime. In Your Home: * Familiar Environment: I understand the importance of maintaining a sense of familiarity and routine for pets. When caring for them in your home, I ensure to create a safe and comfortable environment that aligns with their usual surroundings. This helps minimize stress and anxiety. * Adherence to Instructions: I carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any specific care requirements. By maintaining consistency, I aim to provide a seamless transition while you're away. * Engaging Activities: Whether in my home or yours, I prioritize engaging activities tailored to your pets' needs. This includes interactive playtime, stimulating mental exercises, and regular walks to keep them active, happy, and entertained. Throughout the entire pet care process, I establish trust by maintaining open communication with you. I provide regular updates on your pets' well-being, including photos and videos, so you can have peace of mind knowing they are in capable and loving hands.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my real-Life ,hands on experience caring for pets through all stages especially newborn.My dogs Ace gave birth to 10 puppies and my family and I raised them until they found loving homes. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to fit pet care into my daily routine easily. I’m currently in school for nursing and phlebotomy, but my classes are part-time and mostly in the mornings or online, which gives me plenty of availability during the day, evenings, and even some weekends. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or my client’s, I always treat them like family. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow the pet’s routine closely whether it’s feeding, walking, playtime, or medication—and I keep their space clean and cozy. In a client’s home, I respect the space fully, clean up after the pet, and leave things just the way I found them. If I’m sitting in my home, I make sure the environment is pet-friendly, calm, and supervised. I give lots of love, cuddles, and attention, and I always keep the owner updated with photos and messages.

About: While I’m newer to professional pet sitting, I’ve cared for animals with genuine love and responsibility. I’ve walked, fed, and spent time with my neighbor’s dog on several occasions, making sure they felt safe and happy while their owner was away. I’m also a proud cat owner myself, so I understand the daily care, attention, and patience pets need to feel comfortable and loved. I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m gentle, attentive, and always follow instructions carefully. Because I understand how important pets are to their owners, I take my role seriously—whether it’s keeping them active on walks or just giving them companionship and comfort while you’re away. You can trust that your pet will be in kind and caring hands with me. Pet care fits into my routine naturally and easily. I work part-time only 1–2 days a week, so I have plenty of availability—especially Monday through Friday. This gives me the time and flexibility to focus fully on your pet’s needs, whether that’s daily walks, playtime, or just being there to keep them company while you’re away. I care for pets in their own home where they feel most comfortable and secure. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely, making sure their pet’s routine stays consistent—whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, or administering any needed care. I treat every home with respect, keeping things clean, quiet, and stress-free for both the pet and their owner.
“William was great with Rudy! I set Rudy down to see how he'd respond to William and right away he ran into his arms and I knew I'd made a good choice and my baby would be happy and comfortable.

Pictures were also sent with the texts and video. We will definitely be booking again! William has wonderful reviews and plenty of experience with furry pals, you will not regret this booking :)”

She was great with him and was very gentle with him. She went above and beyond not only to make me feel comfortable leaving my pup with her but made sure Duke felt comfortable in her home. She sent me pictures and texts 3 times a day giving me status on him. Just wish I could find someone like her in the new state that I live. Highly recommend her to anyone who lives in southern California.”

Kate S.
“I have known Kate for all her life, and she has always been an animal lover. She seems to have an affinity for animals, knowing just how to pet them and handle them, and she is very observant of their needs and personalities. Growing up she had a dog, and her family also had a cat. When she got her dog at age 9 she was one of the few kids ever who actually did feed and walk the dog (with adult supervision of course) every day. She is in all parts of her life a very responsible and competent young woman. She has had jobs taking care of dogs, cats, fish, and even chickens. She has had some experience riding and taking care of horses. She has spent multiple weeks at the nationally-known Best Friends Animal Sanctuary in Utah, helping care for dogs, cats, rabbits, horses, and pigs. I highly recommend Kate for dog walking and animal care of any kind.”
