“We're a repeat fan of Tiffany! Due to her always showing up in the timeframe promised and being attentive to our care list for Dalton and Lucy, we are able to enjoy our time away without worry.”
About: What sets me apart is my calm, intuitive approach to pet care. I’m the proud human of a poodle with a mohawk and two cats, so I’m fluent in both high-energy zoomies and quiet companionship. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs, whether that’s patient walks, extra reassurance for seniors, or playful engagement for younger pups. I’m especially great with senior pets, shy animals, and pets who need a steady, gentle presence. I don’t rush visits, I don’t overwhelm, and I treat every pet like they’re part of my own pack—because that’s how I’d want mine cared for. Pet care is a natural part of my daily and weekly routine. I structure my schedule around walks and drop-in visits, allowing plenty of time for each pet so they’re never rushed. Caring for my own dog and cats every day keeps me consistent, attentive, and flexible, and I plan client visits thoughtfully to ensure reliable, calm, and focused care. I care for pets by following their normal routines as closely as possible, whether in my home or in my client’s home. For drop-in visits and walks, I make sure pets are fed, walked, and given plenty of attention and affection, along with any enrichment they enjoy. I pay close attention to safety, cleanliness, and each pet’s comfort, and I always take time to observe their behavior and needs so they feel secure, calm, and well cared for while their owners are away.
About: I have cared for our family dog from 6 weeks old to her senior age of 18!! She is alot of work but SO sweet! I have tremendous flexibility and I have had many different pets throughout my life. I am extremely reliable and responsible. I love all kinds of animals! I don't have room in our house but can come to your house to care for your pet! I can care for any pet at your home.
“Caitlin was a great pet sitter for our 17 year old cat Vittles. We just moved to the area and Vittles was still adjusting to his new surroundings. Caitlin took the time to make sure he was comfortable and communicated with us daily on his activities. She even got him a couple of little Christmas gifts while we were gone. I would definitely recommend Caitlin and will be hiring her again to watch over Vittles.”

“Katie gets 5 stars. She was really good at communicating and took such great care of our fur babies. We felt they were in great hands. We will definitely use her again when we will need a sitter. Thank you Katie.”

“Alex did an absolutely amazing job with my animals while we were out of town getting married. He was completely unfazed by 4 dogs and a cat, all running wild. He took such great care of all of them, sent the most adorable pictures of them, so we never had to stress that our babies were in good hands. Phenomenal job, we will gladly have Alex come back again any time we need a sitter ♥️”

“James was lovely! He was attentive, reliable, and made sure to send daily updates and photos while we were away. We will definitely be reaching out again in the future!”


“Ariel went above and beyond while we were gone for a week. Betty and Rocco were very happy when we came back and the house and the yard looked great. Will definitely use her again soon.”

About: I enjoy creating relationships with dogs. Every dog deserves a quality life and sometimes we are too busy to give them what they deserve. I have owned dogs my whole life and am very comfortable taking them on walks and keeping them company. I will also work on leash training with your dog. I have lots of experience with rescues, and dogs of all kinds. I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Overall, I can tire out your pet with long walks and play time (and cuddle time too, if needed!) I prioritize creating a trusting relationship with dogs so that not only will they be nourished physically, but also emotionally. Willing to work on tricks and training as well -- whatever is most important for you and your dog. I'm currently working part time, so I have lots of time for you and your dog! Happy to have your dog stay at my place as well. I have a fenced in yard with 2 of my own fur babies to keep yours company! They can run around together and get human attention too!
About: I am a recent high school graduate looking to care for your pets! Within the last year I have consistently cared for 5 pets and have 2 of my own. When caring for pets I spend genuine time with them to give them a good experience so they continue to feel safe and loved while you are away. I have cared for rescue dogs and have a rescue dog of my own so I understand many pets have special needs and I am willing to provide them. It is important to me that you and your pet feel confident in their care so you may both be worry free. I look forward to hearing from you and meeting and caring for your lovely animals !
About: As a child I was always the person that was bringing home the lost and injured animals I came across. Not much has changed as an adult. I worked with a pet rescue for over a decade, unfortunately the rescue was dissolved but my love for animals has not faded. I have experience with many different species of pets, ranging in age from newborn and needing to be fed every 2 hours to senior animals that need extra care and patience. I am experienced in giving medicine, and providing all the love and attention your fur babies deserve. I am currently in a career transition and taking classes part time at a local college so I will have plenty of time to care for your pets and make sure they have as much love as possible. I am very diligent in making sure all of your requests are followed to the letter. I personally have a dog that needs wiped after she potties to prevent UTIs and it is a deal breaking for me when I can tell a sitter has not followed my instructions. I understand that routine is important and strive to be a few minutes early for every appointment. I also understand that someone other than yourself caring for your beloved furbaby can be stressful for both you and them. I strive to ease as much of that stress for both parents and furchildren as possible. As a pet parent myself who also uses a sitter when I have to be away for any length of time, having that trusted sitter is life saving.
About: My availability sets me apart allows for client flexibility AND we live on a beautiful 1-acre wooded lot in beautiful Fairview. I posses the same quality as all those who are lucky enough to love animals; heart clenching, weeping endearment for all animals. I want to love them all. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I have two cats in my home now, they spend my days coming in and out of my "office." If caring for an animal in their own home, I am free to come and go and will, depending in the needs of the clients. I do not have a fenced yard, however, we are located tucked back off of and away from any major thoroughfare that could pose any danger. In client home care will consist of adhering to all safety procedures indicated and paying close attention the the clients environment.
“I can’t say enough nice things about Alexandra. She definitely exceeded my expectations. She was wonderful with Ziggy, made sure to send tons of pictures, and she even hung out with him way longer than I paid her for! She was just the sweetest every time I talked with her. When I came home, Ziggy perked right up as if he was expecting Alexandra again, which made me super happy to see how much he enjoyed his time with her. She was even sweet enough to get a gift for Ziggy! I would rate her at 10 stars if it were possible. 5 just isn’t enough. I am positive that I will be contacting Alexandra for all of my future pet needs!”
“Kyle was fantastic! I had a good feeling as soon as I felt his firm handshake. He is very caring, attentive and a great communicator, clear and timely. Kyle was kind and understanding about my anxiety leaving my cat, and he made sure to be in touch and send lots of photos and updates. A truly wonderful pet-sitter!”

“Rachel was a great pet sitter for our kitty, Bandit!! Rachel was very responsive and communicative which made her meeting Bandit, going over Bandit's care, and getting keys, etc., all easy and seamless! It is clear she loves and understands pets very well. We were away for over 2 weeks and Rachel came for daily visits during that time - she sent photos and updates each day and it was clear that Bandit was very happy and well cared for. Upon our return everything was is good order and Bandit greeted us with a kitty "smile"! We highly recommend Rachel, and hope to have her care for Bandit when we next need kitty care!”
