“Haydee was dependable—great at communicating, showing up, and spending time with my cats. Everything was clean and in order when I came home and the cats were fine.”


“Bailee is awesome - she took great care of both our cat and house over a long weekend that we were away. She went above and beyond and left our house pristine when we returned!”


About: I have grown up with dogs. I don't currently have a dog, I lost my fur baby a couple years ago I have experience house sitting, while watching pets. I am active, responsible, honest and a caring and patient person who loves animals. I am comfortable with all size and breeds of dogs I will feed them, refresh their water,play and walk them. I will give them all the love and snuggles they deserve. I do have a full time job M-Th 3 1/2 days a week. I have plenty of time evenings on those days and all day F-Su. I I do not have a fenced in yard, but I live in an area secure for great walks. I do allow animals on the furniture.

“Jenn did an amazing job watching our dog! Her checkin reports were so fun to read and the photos were a great reassurance of our pup having a great time during their walks, snuggles and play. Jenn had some great single-ingredient treat recommendations for my pups sensitive diet and even left us a couple to try. I look forward to the ease of using Jenn while we are away overnight again knowing our pup will be cared for greatly. Thanks Jenn!”


“Krista was great! One of my babies is pretty shy around new people but he warmed up to Krista quickly! They both loved the snuggles and play time Krista provided. I really appreciated the updates. I would definitely feel comfortable leaving them in Krista’s care when I can’t be there.”


About: I have had dogs, cats, horses, and chickens all my life. I am not ready for a dog of my own, but I miss dog time since moving from home. I would love a walking buddy! I used to train dogs and compete in agility shows, maybe I can teach your pup a new trick :) I work a 9-5 type job. I can work from home sometimes, and could also go home at lunch if I was sitting for a dog to walk it mid-day. I don’t have any other pets so this pup would get lots of love! I would definitely take the pup walking twice daily if I were dog sitting.

About: Hi there! I’m Gabby and I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats most my life! I’m confident I can give your animals the love and attention they need while you are away, or even when you have a long work day. I used to work at a humane society as well, so I’m adequately versed in medication administration. I have 2 dogs and a cat of my own and I love staying active with them. Please don’t hesitate to reach out for any of your pet needs! I am currently working a part time office job, 4 days a week, 6 hours a day so I have lots of flexibility in my availability. I am here to work with your animals so anything they need I can provide in the comfortability of their own homes. I cannot currently house animals in my home as I live in a small apartment.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was little and I’ve watched many friends and families pets as they have all gotten to know me and my love for pets! I work part time and go to school. I would be available most weekends and some weekdays as I just have to know a week beforehand. We have a fenced in yard for your pet to play in. If your pet needs to be in a crate that can be arranged!

About: I have cared for pets of all varietals since I got my first job working as a stable hand at age 8. I have cared for all ages and breeds of pets! I have a major soft spot for creatures and would love to spoil yours! I am a full time professional, but would be able to provide feeding in the morning and be around anytime after 4 pm during the weekdays. I am completely free on weekends and would love to spend the whole day with your furry (or hairless!) friend! I am currently a full time professional during the week. So I would be available in the early morning to feed/walk/med, and then be able to swing by in the evening to feed and love on your pets. I have a completely open schedule on weekends, and would prefer to spend my time pet sitting! I believe trust is the biggest factor in pet care. I would like to assure that you I have the biggest heart and utmost patience for creatures of all sizes. I am currently unable to provide pet care in my home but would absolutely be willing to travel to your home to assist. I have no allergies, and am well versed in reading animal body language and respecting their boundaries! I like to keep everyone (including myself), safe and stress free.

“Johanna did an amazing job taking care of my pup while I was out of town. Handled everything that came up with ease and kept me in the loop the entire time. Plus took super cute pictures of my pup which I enjoyed seeing while I was away. 10/10”


About: I’ve taken care of animals since a very young age! I love them like there my children and will make sure they are treated amazing I’m currently working full time but get off at 2pm so I will have a ton of time to play with your pups! I’m available to stay in your home on Wednesdays and Thursday, with some exceptions, I’m also available to walk, play or potty your dog anytime after 2pm!

About: I have been the mom of dogs, cats, rabbits, fish and chickens for many years. Right now I have a BEAUTIFUL German Shorthaired Pointer, two cats and chickens. I enjoy all energy levels and all personality types. I have been a pet sitter for many friends as well. I have a very flexible schedule as I am not working a full time job. I have one more child that will be graduating this year and then my husband and I will be empty nesters. I think a pet's comfort is based on continued adherence to their routines. Familiar smells and activities always help with separation anxiety. Mental training exercises can also help with high energy animals.

“Molly watched my two cats for a week and I came home to happy well fed kittys. She texted me any questions she had about their care and sent me pictures daily. One of my cats needs twice daily medicine and Molly had no issues with giving her the medicine. I highly recommend Molly as she is caring and trustworthy and I would definitely leave my cats in her care again!”

About: I’ve been caring for pets my whole life, growing up with two cats and a dog. From a young age, I learned responsibility through their care. Now, with my senior pets still with me, my skills have only grown as I tend to their needs and health. As a college student I've also fostered a variety of shelter animals and learned to individually care for animal needs. I'm currently a student so I have flexible daily and weekly routines that allow me to help out with pet care. With breaks in the middle of my days and no late-night commitments my schedule can adhere to a variety of needs. I live in an apartment so pet care in home involves walks around the complex and to local parks. In home, I am happy to follow whatever rules make you most comfortable.
