“Wonderful!”


“Maya was amazing and will be my first pick for watching my animals from now on. Super professional, sent me updates, and I felt so at ease leaving my babies in her care. (Almost didn’t leave a review because I don’t want her to be too in demand!)”


“Lexie is amazing. She was super patient with our senior dogs who struggles with anxiety and nervousness around new people. She also treated our home just as kindly. We will definitely continue to rely on Lucy to sit with our pup!”


“Absolutely Fantastic. Super accommodating, communicative, flexible and took incredible care of not just our pupper but also our home. Will absolutely use again for our future travel and know our fur babies are in safe hands.”


About: In addition to growing up with dogs, cats, horses, sheep and goats, I worked at Ben-Jee Kennels for two summers. My duties there included dog walking, feeding, administering medications, and facilities cleaning. I have also pet sat for many friends and am comfortable with animals of all sizes. My job allows me to work from home full time, with occasional travel within surrounding counties. This gives me the flexibility to house sit and dog walk during standard business hours. I do not have a fenced in yard at my property, so I will not be petsitting animals in my own home. I am more than willing to house sit or drop by to walk &feed animals.

“Excellent sitter! I was extremely satisfied and felt confident that my pets were well taken care of. I will definitely reach out to Sam again when I need someone to look after my fur kids!”


“Liv is truly saving me with my recent travel schedule and her services are always absolutely perfect!! I feel so fortunate to have found her!”


“Taylor was fantastic and kept us updated with all the happenings while she watched our animals. She went above and beyond when she recognized a potential emergency situation of our dog showing signs of bloat. She had already contacted our vet and emergency contact before she was able to get a hold of us. She took extra time out of her day to take our dog to the vet on a holiday (Thanksgiving) to make sure he was okay. We will definitely use her in the future and recommend her expertise to anyone.”


About: I’ve taken care of different kinds of dogs for years now. I had two of my own and know how important it is to be able to trust someone to love them like they are their own. Being able to help my community in another way is a big deal for me and I can’t wait to be there for your pets. I work full time but I’m always looking for more to do. I love animals and want to be able to help out the community around me in a different way I know how important safety of all animals is and know when to remove them from stressful situations. Ill make sure your pet is safe and secure anytime they are with me.

“Whitney stayed with our Great Dane for a second time and was amazing! We got a video each day along with photos. She also took care of my kid’s reptiles. She is super responsive and kind. I’ll continue to use her when we go away! The best :)”


“Morgan is one of the best sitters we've ever had for our dog, Tilly. She is incredibly reliable, caring, and attentive, ensuring that Tilly is well taken care of and happy while we are away. Morgan's professionalism and genuine love for animals shine through in everything she does, and we always return to a spotless home and a contented dog. We highly recommend her services to anyone in need of a trustworthy and dedicated dog/house sitter. Thank you, Morgan!”


“Megan took excellent care of all our pets. She sent us photos of walks with our dog and play time with our cats. I really appreciate the extra care she put in to cleaning up after our cats too; as we all know how messy cats can be with their litter boxes! I will definitely call on Megan again the next time we need a pet sitter.”


“I'm glad we choose Amanda because I didn't need to worry while I was out of town. She had good communication, sent me pictures of my happy dog, and was reliable.”


“Madison did a great job watching my dog, Gunner! He was injured and she made sure he always took his medication every morning and evening, and he looked so happy in the photos she sent me!”


“Nate did an excellent job watching our 1yr old GSD Pita for the weekend. Pita got care and attention, and tons of time outside with Lando. When we arrived back to pick her up, she was excited to see us but clearly had a great weekend while we were away.”


“Very flexible and dedicated.”


About: There wasn’t a time a golden retriever wasn’t apart of my family. Through a lifetime of love I’ve learned the secret language of our canine/feline companions. I have had experience caring for elderly dogs in their most vulnerable moments, I’ve dealt with the chaos of training two energetic puppies at once, and everything in between. My pet care experienced does not stop at dogs and cats, I have personal experience with rodents, rabbits, fish, bearded dragons you name it. I work part time so I have a pretty open schedule and lots of flexibility to best accommodate any clients needs. I am available all day Monday and Tuesday, and after 2 pm Wednesday-Sunday I believe that animals deserve the same respect and care as humans, if not more. With my services, you can expect meticulous attention to your pet’s needs, including preparing and serving meals according to their specific dietary requirements and schedules. To keep your pet stimulated and happy, I will engage them in physical activities and playtime tailored to their individual energy levels. Additionally I can perform light household tasks related to pet care, such as cleaning litter boxes and maintaining feeding areas. Basic grooming, including brushing and bathing as needed, is also part of my commitment to ensuring your pet’s well-being.

About: Doggy mother, turtle owner, animal lover! I have interned at a wildlife center for a year. I have two dogs. My Rottweiler has cancer so I know how to take care and love sick fur babies. I understand active hyper pups, I have two pitbulls! I would love the opportunity to get to know your pups! I work with children during the day. But I am able to move around my schedule for your and your puppers convince! Thanks! 🐶 🐶 I am currently offering dog walking and doggy drop ins. To play, feed, walk and to check in on your babies! I understand it has to be lonely for us, humans, even home alone at times. I will make sure to provide love and care for your baby, to keep them company for the 30 minutes or more, while you are away! I am not available for in my home care for your pets, due to the two loving babies I am responsible for.

About: I can’t recall a time that I didn’t have a pet in my household. I’ve had a variety of pets such as cats, dogs, guinea pigs, and fish. I’ve also taken in over 60+ kittens and found them homes. I take care of my pets on a daily basis. I keep them on a routine and make sure to feed them the same amount every time at the same time. I will make sure to monitor everything closely and keep them on a schedule as needed. I plan on working with animals in a zoo, and keeping animals on a schedule there is very important.

About: I have a full time job but I have a reliable car and can drop in at any point to or from work. Perfect attendance at work so that speaks volumes. I have a full time job but I have a reliable car and can drop in at any point to or from work. Perfect attendance at work so that speaks volumes. I have built a catio for my cats to go on and out and lots of wall shelves built for them to climb. My dog has a huge yard to run and play. Plenty of experience for both animals.

Brynn D.
“Since Brynn was little, I’ve seen her care deeply for all types of pets. In our household, our three cats and dog feel so safe and comfortable with her that they often take over her bed, leaving no room for her and it doesn’t bother her one bit. Actually, it makes her very happy. She’s incredibly responsible, always prioritizing their well-being and happiness. Brynn goes above and beyond to ensure every pet feels spoiled, loved, and truly happy. Her compassion and dedication make her an exceptional caregiver.”
