“We had Cynthia stay at our house and watch my miniature poodle, Wrigley, over spring break. She also agreed to watch 2 other dogs at my house who belonged to my friends. (The dogs consider themselves all part of the same pack/family.) She sent us frequent photos, took them on trips to the park and her house to play with her dog, and watched my small pets (2 birds and 2 gerbils.) We were very satisfied with the care she provided. I would definitely ask her to watch Wrigley again if needed!”

“I couldn’t say enough good things about her! She has a very good friendly personality and is still professional. My dog loved her and it seems she took good care of him and he seemed happy. My house was very neat. I will definitely use her whenever I need a sitter.”

“Sara always takes care of our two dogs and house like it's her own. She sends regular photos ans updates and even goes above and beyond washing towels and vacuuming. She makes my wife and I feel comfortable leaving our two dogs while we have to travel.”

About: Helloooo! My name is Michelle O. I am “THE PUPPY LOVER”, I am 20 years old I have plans on being a phlebotomist and a veterinarian! I love friendly dogs, old dogs, hyper dogs, small dogs, big dogs, all except MEAN dogs! I give dogs my full undivided attention and treat them as if they are my own. I will not have a problem giving your dog a bath or if needed a flea treatment; I will take your dog on walks, feed them at least 3 times a day depending on size, and pet them non-stop! I do have a unfenced backyard, so a well trained dog is preferred, unless the client will have to provide a leashed stake for the yard! Clients must provide dog food! -LOVE, Michelle

“Colleen stood out immediately from other caregivers because of her focus on details and learning everything necessary to provide the best care for our dogs during her pre stay visit. She asked many thorough questions and took faithful notes about our pups many needed medications, special diet, health conditions and outdoor routines. We could tell how important it was to her that our dogs receive the right amount of attention and the least possible disruption during our absence. Because our dogs are seniors and may react if left alone for too long, she cheerfully arranged her schedule to stay throughout the day and overnight. Colleen also asked about our home, any expected visitors, watering of plants, how we wanted the mail and packages handled, along with any areas the pups were not allowed. She made sure she had our vet's information, along with a nearby neighbor she could call if needed. Colleen also sent many pictures and videos so we could see for ourselves that they were having a good time and in good hands. Her professionalism gave us the confidence and comfort level to enjoy our time away from home. As a welcome bonus, linens were washed, dried and dishwasher had been run. If any of these things are important to you then we would strongly recommend you consider hiring Colleen.”


About: I have taken care of animals since I was about six years old. I always watched neighbor's animals and cared for them as well as family and friends. I have no issues with giving medications orally to an animal and getting them their exercise in a backyard, going for a walk, or even going to the dog park to go have fun. My goal in life is to pursue a career working with animals while caring for my children. I am currently not working, so I have plenty of time for caring for pets while I am going through college. Tuesdays, I am not available from 2 PM to 315, but before and after that I am available. I am comfortable with using a dog lead if your pet requires it or just taking them on a walk if you do not have a fenced in backyard. If you have animals that have separate foods, I am perfectly willing to separate them in different locations in order for them to eat their own as I have to do this with my cats given 2 of them have urinary issues.


“Molly is the best! She did an incredible job with quite the menagerie. She sent lots of pics and videos and when I came home it was clear how well cared for everyone was! I Definitely recommend her!!!”


About: I’ve lived with 8 animals my whole life! 6 dogs and 2 cats! I’ve grown up taking care of all of the household animals and have truly fell in love with it! I’ll be a senior this year and I’m currently doing online school so I am available 6 to 7 days a week! My schedule is very open and I’d love to fill it with taking care of your own furry friend! I care for other peoples pets the same way I care for my own! In a clean, comfortable and safe environment— pets deserve to be granted the best care they can!

About: From a young age, I've had a deep passion for animals! 🐾 I always dreamed of having my own little zoo, but my family wasn't quite as enthusiastic about it. I did have the wonderful opportunity to attend vet school during high school, which gave me some valuable experience with medications. I also spent some time working at a vet office! Currently, I share my home with my sweet baby-dog named Leilani and a sassy cat named Selena, so I have a bit of experience with different furry friends. To add, I've even had rabbits as pets growing up! 15 years of bunnies to be exact! Additionally, I work as a pet grooming technician, so if your beloved pet needs a bath or a nail trim, I would be more than happy to help! 🐶🐱🐰✨ I'm working a 2nd job (in the animal business) but I'm usually only working 3 days a week so I have a lot of free time off. I will make sure your home is pet-safe while you are gone! If there is a mess made, I'll make sure to let you know and clean up said mess. If needed, I can crate your pet for a little while. Whatever you need or want me to do for your baby, I'll do my best!

About: Hello! My name is Bethany and I have been caring for animals for my entire life. I even made a career out of it for a decade! Including schooling, I was in the animal care field from 2010 to 2014 and was a registered veterinary technician from 2014 to 2022, after which I pursued other career interests. If your pet has special needs, especially medical, I am equipped with the knowledge and skill to make sure your pet is well taken care of. My prices reflect the loving expertise I will show your pet while caring for them. While I am available and more than happy to look after your pets while you are temporarily away, such as for a vacation/business trip, I am currently unable to provide regular, long term care. If you would like services in addition to those listed here (nail trims, ear cleaning, anal gland expression, bathing/brushing, etc) please ask! I am a strong advocate of rescue/adoption, Fear Free techniques, and positive reinforcement training, however my passion lies in helping senior pets with hospice care. My first dog, Chewie, was diagnosed with cancer and I discovered this passion while caring for him in his final year. Currently, I have adopted a rescued puppy mill mama Yorkie named Rey and a Miniature Schanuzer named Wicket. However, I have experience caring for a whole range of animals including cats, rabbits, pocket pets, and exotics. I currently work part time, 5 hours a day, in either the evenings or the mornings, depending on what day of the week it is. While I am available and more than happy to look after your pets while you are temporarily away, such as for a vacation/business trip, I am currently unable to provide regular, long term care. While at a client's house, I prefer to keep to the pet's normal routine as much as possible as disruption can cause stress. So please let me know how you take care of your pets at home, what their daily routine is line, and how they spend their time so I can make sure they can be as stress free as possible while you are away.

Elizabeth L.
“I have known Elizabeth since she was a young child. She has always been such a wonderful person to have in your life and around your animals. She always tried to help any animal that she saw, even animals that seemed threatening. My husband and I had a cat named lancelot who had a bob tail because of a deformity while his mother was pregnant. A lot of people overlooked him but my husband and I did not when we went on a very long vacation, Elizabeth came over every day, called us with updates, and sent pictures. Lancelot passed away a couple of years ago, but he loved her and she loved him and she was just as heartbroken as we were. She has taken care of many other animals I have owned along with my family and our other neighbors in the neighborhood as well. She actually rushed my dog to the vet when she realized that something we had accidentally left out had been swallowed and stayed with him until she knew he was okay and that was well after we had arrived. Honestly if there's any person I would trust with your pet it would be her. She's got such a gentle soul and really can understand how an animal is feeling.”
