“Awesome service! She arrived a few minutes early and took right to our dog Harrison. So thankful she could sit so we could attend a family wedding. Very pleased and would rebook again. A+ job. Kept us updated and sent pics ? Big thanks!!!”
“Michelle was prompt, kept in touch every day while we were away, and took great care of Cotton and Maizey, including making sure Cotton got all her meds every day. She was flexible when our plans had to change at the start of our trip. This was our first time using a dog sitter who stayed at our house, and Michelle made us feel really comfortable. We’ve just arrived home to two happy and healthy pups. Thanks Michelle!”
“Emily was great! She kept great communication with lots of pictures and updates. She took lots of time with our puppy along with walks on top of it. She was able to work with us on short notice. We felt very comfortable knowing our puppy was in good hands! We have her booked for another 2 jobs already ❤️”
“Jennifer was great! We have 3 dogs and a kitten, she stayed with them while we were at a destination wedding. I received pictures and updates. I would definitely use her again and recommend her to anyone looking for a dog/kitten sitter.”
“I highly recommend Josh to stay with your pet! He stayed with my dog Diesel over this past weekend at my house. When I returned home Diesel was very happy and my home was in perfect shape. While I was away Josh sent several pictures of them taking walks together and playing together. They had lots of fun and Josh really focused on Diesel. I will definitely book him again when I need to be out of town.”
“Madolyn did an amazing job with our fur babies! You can see how much she loves animals with the way she interacts and cares for them. I hired Madolyn to house sit and watch our dogs. She gave regular updates on the girls, and took such good care of our home. This turned out to be a fantastic outcome, and I recommend Madolyn to anyone looking for a caring, respectful, and trustworthy sitter. We will definitely have Madolyn back!!!!”
“She was really nice and very patient with one of my shy cats. She went above and beyond her job duties by picking up the cats’ food from the store and tidying up the space more neatly than it was left.”
“Kelly,You are the best! Maci loved being with you. Reaching out with daily photos, certainly helped my separation anxiety. Maci and we will be happy to see you next time. Thank you!!! Sheree&Mark K”
About: I had a pitbull for 10 years who was my best friend.I provided care for her until the end of her life giving her the best love throughout her whole life. I also have experience with other dog breeds and have studied pet care. i’m currently working part time so i’m very flexible with time and providing care during those hours. I’m usually able to work around my schedule for exceptional care for your pets! :) I can provide any care you need as long as you provide a thoroughly list of details and time for if and when your pet needs care and what exactly you expect.
About: I began doing pet sitting in 2016 for family & friends, and that was most of my sitting experience until I began my dog training certification. Now I’ve been in pet care professionally for two years, and have had my dog trainer certification for half of that. My weeks are based around pet care. I do it full-time and have a customizable schedule based around my various clients & appointments. I have special hours available at request. I make sure to get an exact outline of what is expected/allowed for the pet, and am not shy about requesting elaboration if there’s any confusion on my part. Additionally, I like to do what I can to keep them mentally stimulated with games, activities, and some light obedience training/reinforcement so they can hopefully carry that good behavior over to their daily life.
“Rylie stayed at my house with Apollo and Athena and she was great. She sent pics and kept me updated on my fur babies. She took care of my house and left like it was when she got here. Highly recommend her.”
“We booked Jason for house sitting with our dog who has separation anxiety and does not do well in a boarding environment. Jason is great with our dog! Jason came into our house and our dog immediately migrated to him. Jason provided ample walks and gave our dog personalized attention. His wife Emily is also a dog sitter on this site and she has watched our dog too! She is also amazing! We will only be using their services for our dog! We love the husband and wife team!”
About: With over 7 years of hands-on dog sitting experience, I’ve cared for pups/kitties of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments—from energetic puppies to mellow seniors. I’ve handled everything from daily walks and medication administration (pills only) to overnight stays and longer holiday care. I prioritize creating a safe, loving environment that keeps their regular routine. Whether it’s fetch in the park or quiet cuddle time, I tailor care to each dog’s unique needs and personality. My schedule is open and flexible, which means I’m available for extended bookings, weekend getaways, *most* holidays, and all the in between’s. I’m here when you need me, morning, afternoon, or evening—no rigid time blocks, just dependable availability. Whether you’re heading out of town or working long hours, I’m ready to jump in with consistent, loving care. Pet parents can count on me to adapt to their routines and provide reliable service every day of the week. Safety and trust are the foundation of everything I do. I never leave dogs unsupervised in unsafe areas, and I only use the approved pups gear. I stay in close contact with pet parents, offering regular updates, pictures, and messages (if asked for) for peace of mind. With seven years of trusted pet care under my belt and a strong sense of responsibility, I treat your dog as if they were my own. Your pet’s wellbeing is always my top priority.
“We recently had the pleasure of having Shalynn care of our dogs, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. She was extremely professional, reliable, and showed a genuine affection for our pets. Shalynn followed our instructions perfectly and kept us updated, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We highly recommend [Pet Sitter's Name] to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. We will definitely be using her services again in the future!”
“I received multiple pictures of Maxximus and Lola and messages from Sarah while I was away. This reassurance allowed me to enjoy my vacation. She also kept the house organized for my return. Thank you!!!”
About: As an avid runner and walker, I love to get dogs out and about! At home, I have four chihuahuas and two cats, so I'm very comfortable with both big and small pets. My wife even calls me Dr. Dolittle because dogs tend to gravitate toward me. I would be thrilled to offer pet sitting and overnight stays for your furry family members! I have previously worked as a vet tech in a cat hospital and have been around both cats and dogs my whole life. Give me a call to discuss your pet needs, from quick visits to longer stays, I'm available whenever you need me. I work from home with a relaxed schedule, so am free most times of the day for whatever pet needs you have. I am able to be ready whenever you are. I have a fenced in yard and a park close by for walks. I have a fenced in yard and a park close by for walks.

Rianna M.
“I've known Rianna for years now. She has been responsible for both my children (human and K9 alike) multiple times. She recently took on the task of house and dog sitting while we were gone and she excelled in this roll as well. She takes our boy for daily walks, sometimes more than once, she's affectionate, kind, and responsible. Rianna is smart, reliable and awesome with animals. Our Crashy is a picky boy when it comes to humans and Rianna gets his best wiggle butts and dances when she shows up to care for him! I would, and do hire Rianna over and over again!”
