“Rita took care of my cat, Penny, twice a day while I was away on vacation. She did a great job, sent me pictures on each visit, and monitored her food intake since my cat has pancreatitis. I appreciated the time she spent with my cat to pet her and put her at ease. Would definitely recommend Rita!”
“Kathryn takes all worries away when we’re gone. She provides great care for our cat and went above & beyond by helping me make edits to our booking when last-minute changes popped up. She’s terrific!”
About: Why will I be your new favorite pet sitter? Your pet’s safety is my top priority. Trust that your good boy will be showered with with love, attention, belly rubs, and walks. General Pet care experience: I’ve been house sitting dogs, with the occasional cat, for ~15 years. From 4 month old puppies, to 120lb senior dogs, I’ve taken care of them all. I also had a stint as a hospice foster. Ive house sat for up to 3 dogs and 1 cat in the residence. Reactive dogs: I adopted a 100lb severely reactive dog (reactive towards animals, not towards humans) so I am very comfortable navigating situations to keep your dog safe and under control. I know how nerve wrecking it can be letting someone look after your reactive dog Medications and bed rest: experience administering oral medication (both pills and liquids) as well as shot administration for both cats and dogs. Cared for dogs on varying degrees of bed rest, ranging from mild bed rest cases all the way to ACL tear recovery and spleen removals. I was a former hospice foster, so I’m very observant when it comes to your pet’s state and will escalate promptly. Caring for your pup: I have potty breaks set as 4-8 hours in the app. Share your dog(s) walk and play needs so that your pup and I can have a great time. If your dog needs more frequent potty breaks, please note the cadence when reaching out. I will always be sure to send you great shots of your buddy throughout the day and will always relay any hilarious pet news I’m very personable and I promise that I will not disappoint you nor your pets! Can’t wait to meet you all soon! I’m a 32 year old consultant who decided to take a recharge leave, providing me with ample time to care for your dog. I’m attentive and love showing your dog a good time! Im also very respectful of your home. No guests whatsoever. I’m a homebody, anyway Restrictions: no dangerous or aggressive dogs who would put my safety at risk. Non-puppies must be potty trained. I strongly prefer non-destructive dogs.
“Sandra took such great care of both our very large dogs and cat for ten days. Very detailed with her notes and consistent with pictures. They had long walks, play time , food bowl refresh and cuddle time. Couldn’t be more pleased for the love care and attention she provided to my fur babies.”
“Jessica was great taking care of my cats on short notice. She left detailed notes and updates every day and checked to make sure they were happy and healthy (even the one that likes to hide under the bed)! I was completely satisfied with her service!”
“We've used Heather twice and she is great! We really appreciate the pictures she sends of our cat while we are away. She is responsive and can trust that our cat is in good care with her.”
“TeQuilla is incredible! She is very friendly and obviously caring towards animals. She made several house visits to check on our two cats while we were away for the holidays. Each visit, she fed them, scooped their litter boxes, and played with them. After each visit, we received pictures of the cats with a description of what she did and how they were doing. She also went above and beyond by bringing in our mail and washing the dirty cat dishes. 10/10 would recommend TeQuilla!”
About: With 6 years of caregiving experience, and a customer satisfaction rating of 4.9/5 stars, I pride myself on being knowledgeable, patient and reliable. I have worked with cats and dogs from birth to as old as 18 years. I love animals and it shows in my work. I am the person who goes the extra mile to make sure your pet is has the most compassionate and highest-quality experience, whether it’s a 30-minute walk or a week long, overnight stay. I have boarded, walked and cared for pets of all shapes, sizes, ages and temperaments, administering medicine, reporting on behaviors, training, and more. I am responsible, cautious, detail oriented and I am sure that I would make a great fit as a caregiver for your furry friend! I work full-time but have an overall flexible schedule. My mornings are very flexible, allowing me to commit extra time and attention to pets. I do not work weekends or holidays so my schedule allows me the capacity for boarding and overnight stays during particularly busy times of then year for pet parents. I take pet care and safety very seriously. I am vigilant to avoid door dodgers, leash evaders and even the occasional fence hopper. My large, fenced in yard gives pets the autonomy and freedom to explore where I can keep a close eye on them from the outdoor patio or screened in porch. My own animals are crate trained and well socialized due to my many years of boarding experience in-home. I am well equipped to facilitate first introductions, and have the space to accommodate furry friends who may not be as eager or willing to socialize with my animals. Lastly, my SPCA volunteer training has taught me how to identify behaviors and make informed decisions when handling animals or entering their homes.
About: Since I was young I’ve loved dogs and have had lots of experience taking care of different breeds. A lot of people say I have a knack to connect with dogs with different dispositions well. I’ve helped friends family members train their young puppies over the years and am looking to get a certification in that soon! I currently choose my own schedule. So I have plenty of time to keep your pups company. I’m available most days before 5pm and after 10pm I’ll take care of your pups by giving them undivided attention and leaning in towards their specific personalities and encouraging them to be themselves .
“My kitties loved Jill. She accommodated my cat's preference to eat early in the morning and arrived on time to feed and care for them. I felt secure that my beloved kitties were in good hands while I was away. She's ultra-efficient and a true pleasure to be around. We highly recommend Jill!”
About: I have had dogs my entire life. I would be good in any situation. I have done everything from giving meds and shots to bandaging up a foot and much more My schedule is super flexible.

I will also love on your pup. Whatever is needed I can do it.
“Katie was great! This was my first time hiring a pet sitter and Katie took the time to answer all my questions and was very responsive.

“My dog had to be carried out of Bonnie's house when it was time to go because she never wanted to leave! She was SO spoiled there!! She is the ONLY person I trust with my dogs and I am a pet sitter myself! So that says A LOT! - she was also entrusted with my only child. She will stop her car driving down the road to pet a dog ( especially if it's a hound!) we have stopped plenty of times to help catch a lose dog! Dogs are her children and her happiness! I don't endorse lightly especially with animals! And I think she's a great choice!”
