“Morgan has been consistently great during her visits with Tobi. She always rinses his water bowl and makes sure he is hydrated! She ends their visits playing with his favorite toys. It is easy to see he is having a great time in all his Rover card pictures ❤️”
About: Animals are my true heart and passion. I've had dogs my entire life, from min pins to mastiffs. There's no animal I won't truly love. I currently volunteer at a few local places and am not employed. I have a passion for all animals and a love of helping others. My animals are my children and are treated as such. Their safety and comfort comes before my own. I will treat your home and furry babies with love and respect.

“Tiziana did great with my cats! Awesome communication and care. She was fantastic at giving my elderly cat meds twice a day and being patient with my somewhat skidish cat. Highly recommend!”
“Cynthia was great stopping in for our cats while we were out of town. Even though there was a snow storm, she was still able to come in and care for them and we are very appreciative. We would definitely recommend her to anyone needing pet sitting!”

About: I've been taking care of dogs and cats for friends and neighbors for around three years now. My family has two cats and two dogs that I've helped care for and train since they were young. I also have experience with older animals and their needs since one of my dogs and one of my cats are twelve. I currently don't have any other summer employment, so my schedule is open. I am available mornings, afternoons and late evenings every day of the week and weekends, just not for overnight care. I can stop by throughout the day to feed, play with, and let out animals. I can also do short or long walks with dogs or even cats!

During my 10 years of petsitting work, i’ve learned how to make your pets as stress free as possible while your away. Petsitting is my full time job! It is easy for both myself & my clients to have such flexibility. I schedule my days off based off of my client’s bookings. I have studied animal medicine & behavior for. I am a Fear Free certified veterinary assistant. While sitting in your home, I stick to your pets’ schedule but am also happy to take your pets on additional fun activities when requested.

About: I have had dogs and cats all my life. I grew up on a farm and have always loved animals. My girls Piper, Ella and Shelby are my world. I love these dogs like they are children. They are spoiled I will admit. I also have taken care of my friends dogs for years while they have been out of town and my house as "Aunt Paige's Doggie Camp" All my dogs I have brought up from puppies. I have house trained them, crate trained them and trained them on the invisible fence for the yard. They always get lots of love and have lots of toys to play with, both inside and outside. I work from home, so I'm always here to take them out and take care of them. My dogs are always outside when it's not too hot or the weather is bad. I live on a quite street which ends in a cul-da-sak. So I will walk them at least 2 times a day The most important thing is they must get along with other dogs. I have a invisible fence in my yard and can certainly put your dog on it if they are trained on one. Otherwise I will go out with them and walk them. If they are well trained and can be lose a return on command they can play in the yard with my girls.
About: I have had pets since I was a child. I have always owned a dog. Neighbors, friends and family have called on me frequently to care for their pet. I take Flash with me every where I can and when I can’t I want him well taken care of. I love to help people enjoy their time away by giving their pet the best care possible. I work part time. I get up early and never mind doing early morning or evening pet care. On my days off I can walk during the day. I would be willing to walk your pet, feed and allow time outside for play. Can stay at home for several hours if needed on occasions.
“You’re amazing! I’m a little jealous thought... I think they like you better! ? Thank you for taking such great care of them and going out of your way to keep them clean and safe. I was totally at piece once I saw the first pics.”

Madelyn K.
“Look no further, Madelyn Kim is the gem of a person that you want caring for your dogs, cats, humans, yourself- you name it. I've know Madelyn for over 7 years, over that time she has house sat for me watching my cat, puppy - who is now a full grown dog and is entirely obsessed with her, and my home. Madelyn is honest, kind, responsive, timely, responsible, respectful, considerate, and an all around wonderful human being. She cares deeply for all life and treats all creatures, humans included, with the utmost respect. She once house sat for me, watching my 6 month old puppy and elderly cat, for what was supposed to be a long weekend in the winter. When I got snowed in and was unable to return home, Madelyn adjusted her life and stayed at my house, caring for my creatures, gardens, and home, for what ended up being 2 weeks in total. I cannot recommend her highly enough. 10 out of 5 stars.”

lindsey g.
“Lindsey is an incredible pet sitter, and I couldn’t recommend her more! I usually worry when having someone watch Stella because she’s high maintenance, but with Lindsey, that thought doesn’t even cross my mind. She takes such great care of my beagle, treating her like one of her own. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing that Stella is in loving and capable hands when I’m away. Lindsey is reliable, attentive, and truly understands animals. I always come home to a happy pup, and that means everything to me. If you’re looking for someone who will care for your pet like family, Lindsey is the one!”

Tabitha B.
“Tabitha was able to come last minute to walk and feed our dogs and was perfect! We will be using her again!”
Paige K.
“We use Paige all of the time and I cannot speak more highly of her. She is wonderful and our dogs are so comfortable there. Her dogs and my dogs get together and run themselves ragged for an hour, crash and then claim spots on the floor and furniture and everything is great! They even get excited when we say you are going to Paige's house. Paige is a wonderful person and I trust her wholeheartedly.”
Ashley G.Star Sitter
