We couldn’t have asked for better care of our animals and house while we were away. Sarah did a great job keeping us updated on our pets and really did an outstanding job.

About: Throughout my childhood I have owned and raised dogs of all sizes. I also have experience with working at a barn where I gained hands-on experience with daily animal care routines and ensuring the well-being of many animals including cats. I genuinely love all animals and enjoy taking care of them. I am a college student returning home for the summer and I’m planning to make pet care my full-time focus. I have a very flexible schedule and can be available most days and times. I’m responsible, reliable and committed to making this my top priority. You can count on me to be consistent and dependable when caring for your dog. At home I have three large dogs and a fenced in backyard for my high-energy dogs. My dogs are fed twice a day and receive daily vitamins and medications with their meals.

This was our first time leaving our dogs with someone other than family. Declan communicated and sent photos throughout his stay, and we felt comfortable that the pups were well cared for!

We had Kya over our house to watch our cat, Juniper, for 5 days and she did an amazing job and was with her 24/7 which I appreciated. Our Juniper is very shy, but thanks to Kya’s kindness and patience, she warmed up. As promised, she sent daily updates and photos and even took the trash out for us while we were gone. Kya even went above and beyond to ensure the house was immaculate and to wash the bed sheets for the guest room she stayed in, which was so kind of her! If you’re looking for a caring sitter, don’t hesitate to reach out to her. She’s definitely a gem!

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was probably around ten years old. Making sure they are fed, played with, and petted are all ways to show them they are pampered and loved, and that’s something I strive to do! I work a part time job, but I can always do my best to make my schedule flexible. The only unchanging thing I have is going to the gym for about an hour, but I will always come right back! My service is completely up to you! If your furry friend needs to go in the kennel for a little bit, I can do that. If he or she needs to be walked for an hour every day, I can absolutely do that as well. Once again, my service ends wherever you need it to!

About: I've had animals all my life. I love spending any free time walking and playing with my own dogs!! Taking care of them is my specialty. I grew up with an Alaskan Malemute--so I had my hands full with her, but she was the best dog any little girl could've had. Also, an old manager of mine had a husky puppy, and when she would go on vacations (maybe 4-5 times a year), I would watch him and stay over at her house for long periods of time. I'm currently working as an Amazon delivery driver. I work Sundays, Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. Because I am usually gone all day on my routes (about 10-hour days), I am unavailable during the day, but after 8:30 p.m. I can stop in or stay overnight if needed. On any other days of the week (Tuesdays, Fridays, Saturdays) I am free all day. I would let them out frequently throughout the day; keeping eyes on them at all times. I walk every morning, and I would love to have a dog join me! I'm a very clean person and will always ensure to clean up after myself and the pets.

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was 7 years old. I grew up on an acreage and we always had cats and dogs. I can administer shots and medication and have experience bottle feeding kittens and bunnies. I love animals and understand that each one is different and deserves love. I am patient and careful with each pet, giving them the attention they need and feel most comfortable with. I have a soft spot for senior animals. I am a teacher, so I am available all summer for your pet sitting needs! During the school year, I am only available on the weekends or after school check-ins. I will follow all directions and rules for taking care of your pet(s). Each one is special and I understand they all have their own needs. I am great at going with the flow with your pet and letting them lead the activity.

Andrew (Rusty) exceeded all my expectations when it came to boarding my two dogs. First of all, this was the first time they were boarded. They are 7 yrs. Old so I was a little nervous and wondering how my dogs would react. Rusty was amazing with them and they came back relaxed and I knew they were well taken care of. Rusty has a great fenced in area and my dogs love being outside. I highly recommend Rusty and so does Stella and Beau!

Brittany took care of my 2 senior dogs while we were away for 3 days. One of our dogs requires meds 3 times a day, and she is an over reactive dog. Brittany handled a situation with another dog that was off leash very effectively! My dog does not like other dogs, and she picked up my dog to avoid a potentially dangerous situation. Overall she took very good care of their needs, even walking them a couple times a day when she could have just let them in the fenced yard. I would definitely recommend Brittany to watch over your pets and give them the best of care.

Joshua was 100% exceptional from the 1st communication to the end of his stay with our German Shepherd, Kai. He came over twice before the stay to get acquainted with Kai, the house, the neighborhood etc. He communicated daily with pictures of Kai and letting us know how she was, that she was eating and exercising. He stayed in our home from Friday-Sunday. All was clean and in order when we arrived home. We highly recommend him!

Trina is such a lifesaver. We had a dog sitter lined up who had to bail on us about 12 hrs before we were supposed to leave on our first ever Disney vacation. She responded to my message immediately, was available on short notice and honestly spoiled the heck out of my dog! My dog is a senior citizen and takes 2-4 meds a day. She made sure he got all his meds, followed an intricate feeding schedule, and loved him as her own. She checked in with me daily to assure us he was doing well. She also helped feed our fish and turtle. What a lifesaver! We returned to happy animals and a very clean house. We will definitely be using Trina for all our vacations from here on out!

About: As a middle schooler, I worked on a farm property as a pet groomer. I have experience with both dogs and cats, and a specialization with dogs that are disabled and have behavioral issues. I enjoy being active, going on walks, and making sure your fur baby gets the love they deserve! I am currently working part time at an eye-care office! I have a lot of free time, and would love to spend it with your fur baby! I am flexible and happy to accommodate to whatever you and your pet’s needs may be. I am respectful of the spaces I am in, and I understand that life can get busy sometimes. I never judge a messy home, and promise that it won’t be an issue. I am just happy to help!

About: I've taken care of dogs, cats, and even guinea pigs almost my whole life! My personal pet care background is incredibly diverse. I currently manage a lively three-cat household with my sweet cuddle bug Lillie, and my sister’s rambunctious and silly littermate brothers, Scout and Sawyer. I am also the proud owner of a childhood calico named Luna, and a Shepherd/golden mix, Osa. Because Osa is a high-energy, reactive dog, I learned a lot from her and personally worked on training her. Additionally, I have experience with senior pets. I lovingly cared for my late childhood dog, Sisi, which included managing her daily medications. I have also administered short-term medications to cats. I specialize exclusively in house sitting at your home, drop-in visits, and neighborhood dog walks. I look forward to giving your pets the absolute best care! :) My schedule is very flexible this summer, which makes it easy to stick to whatever daily routine your pets are used to. Whether they need a mid-day drop-in visit, a walk, or someone to stay overnight to keep them company, I can easily accommodate their regular timing. Since I will be caring for your pets in your home, my main priority is keeping their environment safe and consistent. I am highly attentive to details like securing doors and gates, keeping dogs properly leashed during walks, and following your specific household instructions. I always send regular photo updates and check-ins so you have full peace of mind while you are away.

Amazing! She house sat for me and stayed with my three babies for a week. Took the time to know them and sent me pictures and stayed in communication with me the entire week I was gone. My flight was delayed by several hours, so we didn’t get home until after midnight, and it is the most refreshing thing to come home and see a spotless house with my three dogs so well taken care of, especially when you’re that exhausted. Absolutely love love love Jillian.
