“Courtney was phenomenal! She took great care of your pets, went the extra mile to care for our space, and provided consistent and clear communication. It was so evident that she deeply cares about our pets and wanted to ensure that our family had a relaxed, positive time while we were away. Thank you, Courtney!”


“Lucy is WONDERFUL. I booked her for nightly drop in visits with my 2 pups while I was away. She came over to meet them ahead of time and they immediately loved her. The notes and pictures she provided from each visit were awesome and really put my mind at ease while I was away. Just a pleasure to work with.”


“I couldn’t be more thrilled with the care my dogs received from Sarah! Sarah is reliable, kind, and truly loves animals. She provides excellent drop-in visits, making sure to play and give my dog lots of attention. My dog was calm and happy when I returned, and I could tell Sarah had made them feel comfortable and cared for. Highly recommend!”


About: Hi there! I’m a registered nurse who genuinely loves animals and feels so lucky to be able to care for them. Beyond just loving them, I bring real experience — I’ve personally cared for many different types of dogs, including those with behavioral challenges, so I’m always patient, attentive, and focused on safety. As a nurse, being responsible, detail-oriented, and trustworthy comes naturally to me, and I will always make sure to follow your instructions carefully and treat your pet with the same level of care I’d want for my own. I would never put your pet at risk — their comfort, safety, and happiness are my top priorities. I’m excited to be a trusted friend to your pup/cat, whether that’s for walks, playtime, or just some good company! Thank you for considering me to care for your furry family member! Since I work full-time from home (8 AM to 4 PM), I have some flexibility in the afternoons for nearby visits. I’m also an early riser and available in the evenings, with weekends completely open for pet sitting and walks. I’m happy to work with your schedule to make sure your dog gets the care and attention they need! When caring for pets, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness above all else. I’m respectful of any boundaries or routines you have set — whether that means maintaining crate training, allowing free roam, or following specific house rules. I’m also comfortable helping reinforce positive behaviors if you’re working on training. My goal is always to make sure your dog feels secure, respected, and cared for, just like they would with you!

About: I have had animals all my life! I have always taken care of my neighbors and family members dogs and cats!! My dog was diagnosed with seizures as a puppy, I have given him his medication for years now and have also been with him while actively seizing. I have also recently been giving my cat oral medicine due to her breathing/mucus. I am a college student and am home for the summer; therefore, I have loads of free time to walk, play, and cuddle with your pets!! I love being both inside and outside! I can play with your pup outback, go for a walk, chill with your cats, cuddle up inside, etc! Whatever your pet needs for company, I’ll be there!!

About: I have grown up with cats and dogs, and my parents instilled in me to care care of them as young as 7. I have my own pets now, and I also sometimes foster rescue dogs for an organization. I typically have a slow introduction for any newcomer so they can get used to the household smells and sounds in a private room without being overloaded with the house residents. I've had elderly dogs before, so I can administer oral or ear medicine, diapers, and shots. I work fulltime, but I work from home two days a week. In addition to the days I'm working in office, I'm usually gone for about 7.5 hours. All dogs go outside around 6 am regardless of the day for first potty and food. I'm usually free on weekends. The only weekend is I play Dungeons and Dragon for about 3-5 hours on alternating Thursdays and Saturdays starting in June. I have a mix of crated dogs and uncrated dogs. All of my dogs are crate trained, but depending on the size of the dog, I will keep smaller dogs out with pee pads so they don't have to hold it the entire day. I have a few rooms baby gated so all uncrated dogs can't get into things they shouldn't. I also have two Ring Cameras on both my front door and side door to keep an eye out for intruders.

“Rachel was great! She was on time each day and really helped me out when I wasn’t able to handle some of the cat chores myself. She’s very polite and has a great personality. We would absolutely have her care for our cat again and would recommend her to others!”


About: Hi! I grew up with cats since I was a baby. I have experience from kitten to older cats. I also have experience with dogs. I have watched a family member’s dog when needed. I have experience with puppy to older dogs. I currently work full time Monday to Friday! I am available anytime after 6pm during the week. And I am available all day on the weekends. I cannot watch dogs at mine and can only go to you due to my lease agreement. I am more than happy to house sit and/or walk your pets!


“Barb is the greatest and the best! We are always happy when she has an opening for us. The dog is calm and relaxed, and we get to see the walks she took while we were gone! Barb is flexible and patient with the dog and with us. Thanks, Barb!”


About: Hi, my name’s Matt and I have been taking care of various kinds of animals since I was 12. Fish, guinea pigs, hamsters, bearded dragons, dogs, and cats. You name it we’ve most likely had it. I’ll make sure your animals are loved for and have a blast while you’re gone. I can work with young puppies and senior dogs as well. Please reach out to me to inquire about availability and to set up a meet and greet. I will also send lots of pictures and updates. I currently have availability from Friday to Sunday. I can be available by Friday afternoons if given at least a weeks notice and can stay until Sunday night or early Monday morning. I currently have two cats and a dog. Nani is my dog and she has a fence for the backyard but I can also take her out for walks or out on a leash if needed. I feed her once a day with dry and wet food. I also give her baths and clean up her poop in the yard. The two cats are indoor cats and I play with them, clean their litter boxes, change their water, and feed them.

About: I’ve had cats my whole life, and adopted and raised a puppy in 2021. I currently still have that dog, who is almost 4 and is 65 lbs, as well as two kittens that I raised with their three siblings over the summer. I have school during the week, but have after school and weekends mostly free! I have my own dog and two cats so I am used to pet care and what goes into it. I have a fenced in yard which can be used if needed if the dog is dog friendly, as I have my own dog at home. I’m happy to visit clients’ homes and take dogs out for however long of walks they require!

“Sabrina was great with our dog Brody who has energy to go along with his big size. That was no problem with Sabrina. She was able to provide great care for Brody and communicated everything. I will definitely be using Sabrina in the future. She’s also great if you have bigger dogs.”


About: I grew up my entire life with dogs. For the last 5 years we have had 2 dogs and I was able to assist in training them, assist in responsibilities taking care of them, and aid them in living a happy and healthy life! I am a student at UD who has satisfied my internship & courses looking to fill my time taking care of pets! I am available every day and cannot wait to spend my time with your pet! I am happy to play however is needed with your pet whether inside, outside, going on walks, taking care of whatever needs are necessary depending on your pet!
