Chloe is an excellent dog sitter! She comes on time, makes sure my dog is taken out, and fed. She also walks and plays with her. She is very responsive and will ask if anything is needed. I also like her pricing as it is affordable. I definitely recommend her as a sitter!

Hillary was a great find in the "eleventh hour" of my search for service. She dropped in and took really good care of my dog while I was far away for the day. I felt confident from our first texts and Hillary's generous effort to come to my home for a meet n greet. Hillary followed through with great communication, lots of photos and follow up texts. I would call her again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her services ! Thank you so much!

Cam visited my house to care for my two cats for five days while we were away. I asked if it would be possible to come at the same time every day, though I mentioned it was okay if that couldn’t be done. Cam managed to come at about the same time each day and sent me photos of my cats. Cam is reliable, communicative, and takes great care of pets. I highly recommend Cam’s services.

About: Adopting Benny, our now 6-year-old Australian Shepherd mix, has been one of the most meaningful and rewarding experiences of our lives. He came to us as a rescue, full of potential but also in need of patience, consistency, and care. Australian Shepherds are known for their intelligence, energy, and sensitivity—and Benny is no exception. From daily walks and mental stimulation to routine training and lots of affection, caring for him has been a constant, joyful commitment. He thrives on structure and attention, and it’s been incredibly rewarding to watch him grow more confident and connected as the years go by. Benny has taught us so much about resilience, communication, and the powerful bond that forms between a pet and their family. He’s not just a pet—he’s truly part of our family. Pet care is a daily routine for me. I'm the one who feeds, brushes, spends time with Benny and walks him on a daily basis. I provide nothing but the best for Benny. He gets toppers on his food, supplements, daily attention and walks. I'am trustworthy, reliable and will treat your animals as if they were my own.

About: I’m a recently retired school teacher with a passion for animals and much love to give. After years of nurturing students, I’m now enjoying the best kind of “retirement” by spending my days walking dogs, playing with pups, and caring for pets. I have so many fond memories of the various dogs and cats I cared for as a kid and parent. Starting in August, 2025 I am available M-F mornings and late afternoons to care for your pet. I can be flexible at other times as well. I closely follow the owners' instructions on their property. Also, I live in a peaceful neighborhood, in a single family home with a large yard. Since the homes are part of a subdivision, there is minimal traffic.

About: I love animals! I’ve never been able to have my own pets so I am thrilled when I get to take care of other people’s pets. It brings me so much joy! I’m currently teaching on and off and looking for longer term work! I have a very flexible schedule that changes week to week with how much I’m teaching or interviewing. In my clients homes I take care of pets exactly as I am instructed to. I try to replicate clients routines exactly. I love to walk on leash and play with toys!

About: I've always had dogs, but unfortunately my last dog (the dalmation mix) took a trip to doggy heaven a little while while ago. This is a wat to slowly get back to the pet world since at the moment I can't have another one (...yet!). I currently work 9-5. If you have an independent dog/cat, that wants loving before and after that, we can work it out. *sharing bed included* Walking, feeding, playing, cuddling, sharing a bed- just tell me about their habits, needs and likes. This is their time, and I will make sure they're happy and well taken care of.

Cindy is incredibly dependable and thoughtful when it comes to caring for pets! She's been amazing with my dog, Sundae. She gets his pace—no rushed walks or overstimulation, just calm, steady attention and good company. My little guy is always relaxed and happy after their time together, which says everything. She’s exactly what you’d want in a caregiver: reliable, communicative, and tuned in to what each pet needs. Whether it’s an old-timer who needs a slow stroll or a stubborn sniffer who investigates every blade of grass, Cindy handles it all with patience and skill. You can feel very confident leaving your dog in her care!
