“Nan is great! She always spends more time than what has been set up and does a great job with my little dog. She’s very thorough with making sure she will have everything she needs for your dog when you’re gone. I highly recommend Nan”


“Julia was amazing with Leon on her drop in visit with him. She paid so much attention to him and was so patient with him. He is a senior so that is exactly what he needs. We will be having her back to look after him soon!”


About: I’ve pet sat for a few families for many years. I grew up around dogs, had cats of my own, and now have 2 precious dogs who are my world. I currently work a full time job, typically done around 4pm. I am looking to get more experience with pet sitting and make some extra income. I will treat your animals like they’re my own, with nothing but love and compassion. They’re a small part of our life but we’re they’re whole life so they should be treated like family

About: I’ve taken care of neighbors and families pets for extended periods (~7-10 days). I found a litter of feral kittens this past summer and cared for them until finding them homes. I’ve also watched many breeds of dogs from chihuahuas to mountain dogs. I’m available most days and hours as I don’t have much of a routine as this is my current source of income during my time of from college. My personal dogs are able to be off leash constantly as I am from a farm background which allows them to have a lot of space. The dogs I’ve watched often have fenced in yards that I’ll play with them in and let them outside on a schedule the owner has requested.

About: While I don't have any special training with animals, I like to listen to what the owner and the animal needs for care. I genuinely love hanging out with them. I love how excited dogs get when I walk into a house, or how free they feel and excited they are for a walk. Or when cats rub up against you and love getting pets. Pets are like people, they're all unique and have their own personality and needs. That's what makes pets awesome, how different they all are. I'm currently working a few hours each week from home, so I have plenty of free time to hang out with pups, or kitties, or take dogs for a much need walk or bathroom break. Well that depends on the animal, because each pet is different. how comfortable they are with me, how many times do I need to be introduced to them, how the owner would like me to care for them. Theres a lot of factors that come into play, so I am willing to do what the owner would like to be done for their own pet.

“Rhiannon was fantastic! We knew from the moment we met her that we had the right person for the job. She is compassionate, kind, and VERY attentive. She stayed in touch with us on every single visit. And alerted us of anything that looked out of the ordinary. We will definitely use her again when the time comes. R&L We HIGHLY recommend here. She will take excellent care of your pets for you!”


About: I’ve had the joy of living with dogs my entire life, from a Black Lab in my toddler years and to a Shih Tzu and a Shih Tzu Poodle mix. I recently rescued a Pittbull Lab mix who lives with my parents now. Needless to say I love all breeds equally and will happily love yours! There’s nothing more I love than seeing the joy of a dog exploring on a walk, playing with them for hours on end, and giving them endless scratches and belly rubs, which is exactly what would be on the agenda! I have experience giving medicine in numerous ways as well as bathing them if things get messy! I have also worked previously as a veterinary receptionist. I have no problem staying at your home overnight, respect and communication are held to the highest of standards for me. I can’t wait to get in touch with you and meet your fur babies!!

About: I adopted my own cat about 7 years ago. I added a dog to our family dynamic also, about 4 years ago. During the summer, prior to owning my own pets, I would regularly pet sit for local families, who needed someone to check in on their furry companion. During the summer and over holidays, my daughter spends a lot of time with her father. This opens up my schedule to add in extra fun activities, like checking in on your pets while you're away. I will follow any instructions given to care for your pet while you're away. Please be as specific as possible, since each pet may need specific care, or have their own routine they're accustomed to.
