Allyson was great!!”

12. Tammy D.
About: I have been a dog sitter/cat sitter, off and on for 20 years. I love animals! I treat and love them as if they were my own. Unfortunately, I do not have a fenced in yard, but I have plenty of yard around my home. I prefer smaller dogs, but I am flexible. Must be good with kids! I have a 12 year old who loves animals and can't wait to give them attention they need. I will be happy to come get your dog or meet you prior to watching your dog. I have a full-time job. I leave the house around 8, and I'm home most days by 2:00-3:00. My husband will be here to help out as needed. I will walk them, play and care for them as they are my own. I own a large crate so if you are crate training I can be consistent and provide that service.


13. Jolie C.

“So happy that I chose Jolie to watch our cats while we were away for the holidays. I didn’t worry about them at all because she would always send me photos and detailed updates about them. I would love to book her again! You can really tell how much she loves and respects animals.”


14. Meg W.
“Meg is great with all pets and is a huge animal lover. She would be super attentive and wonderful with your pets and definitely treat them like her own. Your pet would be in excellent hands and you would be blessed with her care. Keith T.”


15. James C.
About: I have worked in professional animal care settings and worked with different kinds of animals in a zoo setting! I have sat privately for years! I have a very flexible work schedule so I am able to do everything I can to work my schedule around your dogs individual care! I have been trained in various forms of animal enrichment, food management, and know how to notice problems with animals mental and physical well being. I care for each animal based on insidiously care plans!


16. Lisa L.
“Lisa’s love for dogs is almost as big as her love for fun! Her dog and mine grew up together and she would host play dates for them when I had to work. My dog had the best time and Lisa always sent updates with silly pictures. My dog would get to the point where he only cared about seeing her when we went on walk, he would lay down and just wait for her to pet him. She got down on his level to pet him and talk sweetly to him. Lisa is extremely kind and aware of pets needs and wants ❤️ lots of belly rubs and kisses!”


17. Beth G.

I always will work hard to make it work!


18. Katelyn F.
About: 5+ years of experience with dog walking, pet sitting, and caring for cats and dogs of all sizes and personalities. I provide reliable, loving care — whether it’s playtime, walks, feeding, or just relaxing with your pets. After going through chemotherapy, I’ve grown even closer to my own pets — they’ve been attached to my hip these past 8 months and have brought me so much comfort. I hope to offer that same sense of safety, love, and security to your pets while you’re away. 🐾 I recently finished chemotherapy and am using this time to focus on healing and getting back on my feet. Because of that, I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available most days for pet sitting and drop-ins — other than a few doctor appointments here and there. I’m happy to work with you to schedule visits that fit your needs! 🐾 🏡 1️⃣ Respect the Home Always enter/leave carefully — lock doors, follow instructions. Keep the home tidy: clean up any pet messes, wipe paws, don’t leave supplies out. Follow any house rules (off-limits areas, couch use, etc). 🐕🐈 2️⃣ Meet Pet’s Basic Needs Feed and provide fresh water exactly as instructed. Clean litter boxes (cats) or yard/pads (dogs) each visit. Check that pets are safe and comfortable (temperature, bedding, toys). 🎾 3️⃣ Exercise & Enrichment Walk dogs according to client’s request (time, distance, leash style). Play with cats and dogs to keep them stimulated and happy. Rotate toys if needed; give love and attention. 💊 4️⃣ Medication (if needed) Only administer meds if client provided clear written instructions. Note the time given and report to owner after. 📸 5️⃣ Communicate With Client Send photo/video updates each visit. Let them know how their pet is doing (eating, behavior, any concerns). Ask questions if anything seems off — better to check than guess. 🧹 6️⃣ Before You Leave Check doors/windows are locked. Check that pet has access to food/water and safe areas. Tidy up any supplies you used. Send final update to client.


19. Maya R.
About: I've taken care of many different dogs, from chihuahuas, Pyrenees, weenie dogs, all the way to cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, and more. I love animals, and I am willing to learn more about different breeds too! As of right now I am not working since I am a stay at home mom, so she is my working buddy (six months will not let play with the pets) so I am free pretty much anytime besides Sunday morning; because I like going to church. I can set up whatever routine you choose at your home, whether that is crating or letting them sleep out the couch, and so forth. I cannot do sitting at my house since I have large dogs that are protective.


20. Emma H.
“Emma did an amazing job caring for Olive for 5 days while we were out of town. Emma followed all of our directions and did so much more! Olive got long walks outside and lots of cuddle time inside. Emma provided updates and pictures that showed that Olive was feeling very at home. I am always nervous bringing Olive to a new sitter, but I immediately felt at ease that Olive would be happy with Emma. Emma was very responsive to texts and super easy to work with. She is very sweet and kind and it is easy to see that she loves dogs. I would be very happy to have Emma watch Olive anytime we need to be away. (Funny side note - we don’t often play fetch with Olive, but obviously she did that quite a lot with Emma because since she has been home she keeps bringing us toys that she wants us to throw for her. I don’t think we are responding up to Olive’s new standard.🤣).”
