“Samantha was by far the best sitter we have ever had for our three German shepherds. We don't know Samantha at all and were in a pinch to find someone for a weekend trip so we looked into Sam. She was so quick to respond, knowledgeable, friendly, and even offered to come over and meet the pups to ensure they were comfortable with her before the trip. I could sit here all night and explain how good she was but if you are on this app looking for a sitter, its because you love your animals and if you're anything like me, you trust them. My oldest shepherd has the best instinct I've ever seen in a dog and he is always right about good and bad people. He usually takes time to warm up but the moment Sam walked through the door, he immediately ran up to her, wagged his tail, and wanted to play. That was enough for me to know, she is the best through and through. Book Sam if you want to enjoy your trips knowing your babies are taken care of from someone with a genuine love for animals. Thank you Sam ❤️”

About: My mom used to take in foster animals, as well as rescue many, when I was growing up. So I've always been around different animals with different personalities. I'm particularly great with cats and dogs. I have over ten years of experience taking care of animals and always have at least three of my own as an adult. I don't have much going on currently, so it shouldn't be too hard to plan around my current schedule! I can also be flexible and change days around as needed. I do a lot of research before taking on big responsibilities. I can follow a schedule or just work off of basic rules. In the case of me going to an owners house, my personal motto is to leave a house in better condition than when I arrived.
“I have used Laci for both drop in and overnight services. She met with us for a meet and greet before the sitting dates. My Lola took up to her right away. Laci provided updates and picture and followed directions left for her the day of the sittings. I would seek out her service again for sure!”

About: I've had dogs my whole life. Small dogs, big dogs, I love them all. I'm a very reliable and trustworthy person. I ran an in home child daycare for 5 years where I was trusted with people's children, you can rest assured that I will care for your furry children as my own. I'm a stay at home Mom with a flexible schedule. I am happy to do mid day walks and check ins on your furry friend. I have 2 dog friendly medium/large pups in my home and a big fenced in backyard. I have gates and crates as well if anyone needs a break from one another. If I'm coming to your home I will follow your directions and expectations to a t.
“Alex is a fantastic pet sitter. The instructions for my senior cat can be a bit complicated - Alex took care of her and our golden retriever so well. Highly recommend. She left our house the way we left it, was very communicative, and trustworthy person.”

“Katherine did a great job with our 2 rambunctious dogs! She was very communicative during her stay which made us feel very comfortable. I would definitely have Katherine stay with our dogs again”

About: I have been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember. I think my first gig I was maybe 13??? (I'll be 40 this year.) I just remember walking into my neighbors house after I fumbled with the key and the cats being happy to see me. I have experience with senior cats and kittens alike, and also dog care from puppy to senior. I can administer oral medication in pill pouches but I don't like the forceful method. I can also help with topical medications as needed. I do have formal training in any of these areas just many years of helping take care of my own and others. I am working part time so I have plenty of time to help with all your pets needs and wants. Play time here we come! I do not have a fenced in yard but there is a park 3 miles from my house that is gorgeous for dog walks. I have an entire bedroom that has been converted into a work area for other animals or a guest bed can be set up if I have a human over. But cats can have tgeir own space and litter box in this room or if a dog is getting overwhelmed we can go sit in there and have quiet one on one time.
“I highly recommend Shelia! Our two dogs and cat loved her! It was a relief to know they were in good hands while we were gone. We will definitely be rebooking her for future trips.”


About: I’ve cared for dogs with a range of personalities, from energetic to calm and relaxed. I’m comfortable handling daily routines like feeding, walks, and playtime, and I pay close attention to each dog’s needs and behavior. I believe dogs do best with patience, consistency, and lots of love, and I treat every fur baby like my own. I work a rotating schedule, which allows me to offer flexible pet care throughout the week. I’m generally available for evenings, weekends, and select weekdays when I’m off, making me a great fit for drop-ins, walks, and weekend care. I’m always happy to communicate and coordinate to make sure your fur baby gets the attention and care they need. I’m very attentive to cleanliness and detail when caring for pets. From tidy feeding areas to a comfortable, well-kept space, I make sure each fur baby’s environment is clean and stress-free. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would expect for my own.
“Katie was great taking care of our dog while we were on vacation. She showed up when she said she would, spent some quality time with him, and sent plenty of pictures and status updates. Wouldn’t hesitate to book again!”

“This was our first time using Jenna, and she was awesome. It's not an easy task taking care of four dogs and three cats, but she handled it so very well. Jenna sent us daily pictures, and all of our fur babies always looked very relaxed and well cared for. We will definitely use her services again in the future.”
“I booked Allison to watch my cat and 12 year old Frenchie. She provided excellent care, including giving eye drops multiple times a day, watering flowers and sending me frequent updates and photos. I will definitely book her services again.”

“Brittany was fantastic! She stayed 3 nights to watch our dog and cat and we came home to very happy fur babies. She kept us updated the entire time and sent lots of pics. Even did some light cleaning! We were very happy and relaxed being away.”

“Connie was great! My dog (Beau) really liked her and they played all evening. They even went for a nice, long walk around the neighborhood. I appreciate Connie's punctuality, communication, kindness, and keeping up with Beau!”
