“Our kitten Raven (nickname "Mayhem") gave Jorda a run for her money and she v was up to the task! And she gave our boy his daily meds and kept Jelly the food lover with allergies out of the non-allergy food. And left a beautiful cat pod that she crocheted herself!! I could not recommend Jordan more. My babies were happy and well cared for while we were away.”



“John bailed me out with just a few days' notice when I had a family emergency and had to rush out of town. He was very kind and accommodating to my needs and I appreciate his responsiveness and assistance. He met all my expectations and I will definitely call upon him again.”


About: Thanks for clicking on my profile! I have experience working with pups and kittens ranging from a few months old to the end of their life. I foster a strong bond with every pet by tailoring my care to each baby's unique personality and needs. I'm happy to care for pups of any types, but my speciality is getting close to (and wearing out!) anxious dogs. I'm very patient and energetic, which allows me to move at their pace and earn their trust. I have some dog (and cat!) training experience, so I'd be happy to teach basic commands and/or reinforce the commands you're already working on with your pup :) does your dog pull during walks? Do they come when you call? I can try to help! My absolute favorite service to provide is walking dogs for 2+ hours to really wear them out! I love a long walk! (I'm also happy to provide plant care! I'm an ecologist by trade.) I love to house sit so that I can get a chance to really know your pup! Just note that for stays longer than 2 nights I would want to bring my cat with me. I'd be happy to discuss more as needed! I'm looking forward to meeting you and your sweet baby! I work remotely with an incredibly flexible schedule, so I can usually make my schedule fit whatever is needed. I just need a few days notice so that I can make sure my schedule is clear for your fur babies! I'm happy to stay over night at your home, if needed! I like to bring my own sleeping mat, and I'll need to bring my kitty if I'm caring for your pet for more than two nights.

“Carly took great care of my pups - she kept them on their schedule, gave them their meds, put their winter coats on to walk them, cuddled with them etc. She communicated with me regularly and left my house tidied up.”


About: I have always loved dogs, I have watched my sister pitbull and I have 4 golden retrievers at home so i have a wide experience with different dogs breeds. I am a college student, and I am coming back for summer break may 22nd so my schedule is completely free once I am back. Since I have my own dogs, I don’t feel comfortable caring for pets in my home, but I am comfortable with caring for pets in my clients home

“I have a Rottweiler and anyone with a big dog knows how hard it is to find a sitter. Kerri does an amazing job with him. She is an incredible house guest. I appreciate the love she has for my buddy. Knowing he is with someone that loves him allows me to enjoy my vacations, worry free.”


“Alexus did a wonderful job for us. She even took my sick dog to the vet and cared for her with medication, etc. I would gladly use her services again.”


“Micah was such a gem to find! He was thorough in his care for my animals which is not easy as my boxer has a myriad of health and anxiety issues. He provided updates and asked questions when needed. Do not hesitate to book Micah, he is a fine gentleman who will care for your animals like his own. I will not hesitate to reach back out myself!”


“Jolene was beyond amazing. We had something come up and our original plans for our boys got cancelled. She was available last minute, was very responsive, and she is extremely polite. She kept me updated with photos and videos. She loved on our boys like they were how own! I am definitely a crazy dog mom and she put me at complete ease! We will definitely use her again!”


“Loni was amazing with our dogs while we were gone. Even the house cleaner commented to me about how well she interacts with them. We will definitely be using her again!”


About: I love all kinds of cats and dogs. I grew up with labs and cats and have taken care of neighbors, family members, and friends’ pets. I will spoil them to my best ability and send lots of check in pictures. I am a teacher with the summer off with tons of availability particularly in July and August. During the month of June, I am available for short sittings. I am flexible and responsive. I will follow any guidelines or rules you want me to when taking care of your pet in your home. I will give them the love they need while you are away.

“Delaney watched my dog, Roxie, while we went away for about five days. She did a great job in communicating. Roxie was well taken care of, was happy and had a full bowl of water when we got home. I will definitely ask Delaney to watch my dog again in the future.”


“Holly did an amazing job taking care of my dog and cat! She went above and beyond what was expected, providing frequent updates and keeping me reassured while I was away. Both my pets are happy and well cared for, and I couldn’t ask for better service. I highly recommend Holly for anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”



“Scott was absolutely wonderful! He took such great care of Gloria- taking her for walks and giving her lots of cuddle time. Scott kept in touch with me the entire time. I will definitely call upon Scott again!”

About: Animals have been a integral part of my life for all of it, I cannot imagine a good life without them. I've cared for pregnant dogs, most notably a pitbull and eventually her puppies, house and crate training a litter of six. I adopted an elderly beagle with anxiety, reforming her destructive tendencies with attentive care and regimented medication. No matter the troubles with your fur family, I guarantee I will make your life easier, your days smoother and your pets happier. Pet care is my career so I am available all-day, everyday. It's one of the most rewarding jobs I've had, pets understand when you are looking out for them, and give it right back. For boarding, I have a large backyard with a high fence, perfect for running big dogs if we can't get to the dog park due to weather, dog temperament, etc. I have several large dog size wire crates if required, although I prefer to let new boards explore my puppy proofed first floor. I am flexible and competent able to respond quickly and effectively to everything from your dogs specific quirks, to unexpected medical emergencies with my personal supplies and a direct line to my local 24-hour vet, or yours if you prefer.

About: I've been taking care of my own pets since I was eight years old. Currently I take care of my bichon and bichon poodle in my home. I have pet sat Maine Coon cats, labrador retrievers, golden retrievers, basset hounds, beagles, and german shepherds. Additionally, I have experience that ranges from puppy care to senior care. I am more than happy to do a phone call or meet in person so we can get to know each other, or stop by to meet the pups before I stay with them :) I'm working part-time right now, so I will have plenty of time for your pets! I am super flexible and don't mind getting up early/leaving late. In your home, I am more than happy to accomodate the routines for your dog and the routines of your household. It's important to me to keep the dogs safe, utilizing baby gates, shutting doors/cabinets, and having fences as needed.

About: I have always had a passion for animals of any kind. I have a cat myself, and have been trusted to care for friends and families cats and dogs for years now. I will care for your fur babies like they are my own. i currently work part-time, and will be home for the summer from school. I will have plenty of time to come check on your animals. I will make sure your animal gets plenty of exercise and love, and will also make sure your house stays in the condition it was found in, if not better.

“Mandy was awesome. I have a grumpy old pup who is timid of new people. He wouldn’t eat because he was so nervous. She was so patient with him and gave him space and by the second day he let her pet him and was eating. I couldn’t be happier. I know they were in good hands with her.”

“Sam did a great job watching an anxious dog I was fostering, Kally. Sam and their cat stayed at our place for a week while I was on vacation, right after Kally was neutered. I was surprised by how well Kally settled in with Sam, and that Sam's cat, Camille, fit right in too. Kally healed up well from the surgery and learned how to sit and stay during my trip! Such a great experience!! Would highly recommend Sam for house sitting stressed dogs!”
