“Angie did a great job taking care of my two kitties they were both relaxed, healthy, and happy when I returned. I highly recommend her... she spent a good amount of time each visit not only feeding and cleaning up but also holding and petting them. I am booking her again for my next trip this coming February.”
“Rachael did drop in visits for my two cats over about a week and a half. I appreciated the punctuality and extra effort to give them wet food (they're on an auto feeder and my little piggy Zakky definitely appreciated it 😂). No complaints and would book Rachael again. 🙂”

“Holly did a great job caring for our cats this weekend. I really appreciated her attention to detail. She clearly read all the instructions we left and did everything just right. Highly recommend!”

About: I have grown up with dogs all my life! I do have a pup of my own, but am still sitting for those that are in need and don’t mind another dog in the home! I am also doing dog-walks and pop-ins! I work from home so your pup wont be alone. Weekends are usually open. I love all sizes and can’t help but spoil any one I meet! I have experience with both small and larger dogs. I would love to walk or jog with your pet, even if it is cold outside depending on what they can handle. Feel free to message me with any questions! I work for myself and from home so I am able to adjust my work schedule pretty well. No dogs have needed to be kenneled while working. I have a pup of my own that loves to play with others. If they do not get along, I have a gate at that can keep them separate-although I have not had this issue yet. We have a big crate that can home your pup when we are out of the house.
“Jenevieve helped us during a trip and she was always on time and very responsible with the care of our pets. She sent us photos every visit and gave us daily updates. Will use her services again for sure.”

About: I have lots of experience working with dogs with Thyroid disorders, joint problems, hip problems, diabetes, and special diets. I'm very flexible. All you have to do is ask and we'll see. I've had Chocolate Labs, Chesapeake Bay Retrievers, Poodles, Terriers, and Shih Tzus. I love animals especially puppies and dogs. I am also willing to watch your cats if you also have them. I wanted to be a veterinarian or veterinary assistant but I didn't quite have the grades for it so that's why I decided to become a dog sitter, a dog walker, pet care taker, dog lover, and pet lover. I will take the best care of your pet and love it like my very own. Hope to hear from you soon. I'm available for house sitting on weekends and some week nights just ask me. Availability for pet care all week depending on the hours needed. I always accompany pets when they are outside even in a fenced in yard. I take short or long walks depending on what is requested.

About: I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember. I would look after friends, families, and neighbors pets while they are away. Everyone in my life knows I am a very trusted person. I am currently a student at Aveda Institute Tuesday-Friday, and I babysit on Mondays. Pet sitting is a perfect fit for me on the weekends. I am able to work with any pet and cater to their needs whether they are a very energetic dog or a senior citizen dog who needs some more love. I am more than willing to accommodate to everyone's needs.
About: I’ve loved and owned dogs since I was a small child. My first pet as an adult was a cat. Since then, we have adopted and loved a previous military trained explosives German Shepherd, a German Shepherd/Belgian Malinois mix (recently passed 2/27/26 😢), and also the partial owner of (with my ex-spouse) a police K9 Belgian Malinois. The K9 was brought home at 8 weeks and trained in-house (both at home and at work, but trained by my ex-husband). I love all dogs- big and small. I currently work full time, but work in the office 3 days/week, which makes me have a lot of flexibility to help out during the week and during the day time. My pets have always been considered my children. I am comfortable with leashing and controlling dogs in a variety of situations. I am situationally aware and avoid interacting with other dogs while walking, as I know those are unpredictable situations.
“LOVE all the care Ash has with my cat, Gucci. I’m traveling for a month and Ash has been very communicative, helpful and supportive all the time. She answers me in a timely manner, send pictures and makes me feel safe with my choice of choosing her to take care of my cat. Best choice ever.”

“She did a wonderful job caring for my sick and yet very energetic husky. Super nice woman and a very good caretaker. My husky threw a temper tantrum when she saw me walk through the front door instead of Farra 😂”

“Allison checked in on our kitty while we were away. She did exactly what we needed and then some. I appreciate her bringing in packages without being asked and took extra care to clean up after our kitty. We will definitely be contacting Allison again for any future pet needs.”

“This was my first time using Morgan and I would definitely use her again! I had a last-minute request and she was prompt and had great communication. She made time for a meet and greet and I trusted her with the care of my babies! She sent me pictures and notes while I was gone. Thank you, Morgan!”

“Jaron did a great job taking care of our kitties while we were away. He showed up on time and provided great updates for what he saw of them and how they were doing. They are not too fond of other people but our most shy cat even came out to greet him both times! Jaron was also able to stop by and meet our cats before hand to make sure everything went smoothly. I will definitely be using Jaron again for my next vacation!”

“Hallen was great! Our little kitty Billy had a great time, with plenty of play time and pictures. Came home to a clean house We will be asking her to pet sit again. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve had cats, dogs, and reptiles since I was a child and have volunteered in animal shelters. My passion is animals and my dog is the love of my life, and I cannot wait to share that love with your pets! My boy was VERY reactive when I first brought him home and we have been through multiple obedience classes together so I have experience with dogs of all temperaments and have special love for the ones who tend to be misunderstood. I am currently working full time but would love to take on caring for your pets on Friday evenings and on the weekends. My weekend availability is completely open! I live near a few parks that provide wonderful opportunities for walks with lots of spots to sniff and explore! I have experience medicating dogs if needed, kenneling them, and whatever other special needs they may have.
