“Margaret was a fantastic help to me! I had extreme flexibility with my travel plans and she was able to work with me to make sure my two little ones got the care they needed while I was away. I felt I had to hurry home before they got too attached to her over me! 😁”
“Hossanna has watched my 3 cats several times now! She does a fabulous job. She lets me know they are okay when I’m gone, so I don’t have to worry. She’s always very polite as well. I would highly recommend her!!”
“Skyler did such a great job catsitting for our two kitties!! She was very communicative and sent pictures while we were gone.

About: I have many years of caring for all types of dogs. I have worked with puppies, seniors, reactive/fearful dogs, and working/high energy breeds. I am always up for learning and researching new techniques and skills when it comes to dogs. I have fostered dogs through my local animal shelter for many years which has given me a lot of experience with rescues. I’ve fostered nursing litters, young puppies, and adult dogs with great success! I am always excited to meet new dogs and learn their personalities and quirks so that I can care for them in a way that works best for the dog! I am newly unemployed and dedicating my time to caring for dogs! My schedule is generally pretty flexible, which leaves me time to care for your pets in a way that works for you and your dog! I live in a home with a fenced in yard where dogs can play! I have one dog named Olive, and she is the best with fosters we bring into our home. She will take the lead of other dogs and can play for hours, or just hangout calmly and give space to nervous dogs. I believe in crate training and find it very useful for multi dog households, but if your dog isn’t crate trained we can figure something out! Mental and physical stimulation is one of the most important things for dogs, so I incorporate walks, brain games, and structure whenever necessary! I believe that each dog is unique, so I like to follow their lead in terms of what they require to be fulfilled!
“My cat Zinnia had a great time with Grace. She got lots of playtime, cuddles, and love during the weeklong house sitting. Everything in the house was pretty much the way we left it and we even got a card with our fur-baby’s paw print when we arrived home. Grace truly went above and beyond in making sure Zinnia got the attention and love she deserved.”
“Rhiannon was wonderful (this was our second time working with her) -- our cat loves her! We so appreciated the videos and photos while we were away. Thank you!”
“Melanie is thoughtful, kind and conscientious! Our pack is so happy to see her and also match her calm and caring demeanor. We are so grateful to have Melanie a part of our pack!”
About: For over 14 years, I cared for two deeply loved dogs - Charlie and Indiana - through every stage of their lives, including special diets, medications, and the realities of aging. I’ve handled everything from leash pulling to pet reactivity, separation anxiety to senior care, and understand how unique each animal’s needs can be. Since losing both of them, I’ve felt the pull to keep sharing that care. I know firsthand how important it is to trust the person watching your pet - it brings peace when you’re away. I’ve been that person for family and friends for years, and I’d be honored to be that for you, too. In addition to providing a fun and safe environment, I have two goals when pet sitting: 1. Providing care that feels like home, even when you’re away 2. Becoming your pet’s second favorite person! I work remotely with a relatively flexible schedule. I will be home with your pet the entire workday, making walks, potty breaks and snuggles easy! I can typically cater the rest of my schedule to your pet’s needs as well. They’re the priority when I’m sitting ❤️ I know how important it is to give each pet the unique care they need. Following your care instructions and preferences is my guarantee. No matter your pet’s age, size or needs, they will be safe, snuggled and secure in the way that suits them best.
“If you’re nervous about leaving your pets with a stranger, Jen is the person to go to. I was amazed by the way she took care of my cats and I appreciated that I could meet her beforehand. Jen sent me pictures, videos, and thorough notes pertaining to my cats while I was gone for 6 days. She kept the cats extremely happy and also cleaned my apartment. Jen even gave me her laser pointer because my cats loved it so much. I appreciate how kind she was, and I would definitely ask for her help again.”
“Brenna was wonderful and great at communication, asking all the right questions. I had to book her last minute as a friend canceled on me. I love the fact that she offered to meet and see my place before I left. I will be using her again!”
“Marcus is kind and caring. We had him for drop in visits for our 2 cats while we were out of town. He did everything we asked and was very trustworthy and responsive.”
