“Thank you so much for taking care of our Momma Kitty! It brought us great peace of mind knowing she was warm, safe and dry and in good hands with you. We truly appreciate you and your service!”


“I was so happy to find Amanda on here. She took great care of our kittos with lots of pictures and detailed updates about how and what they were doing. We came home to a clean and tidy home and happy cats! Looking forward to calling on Amanda again in the future!”


About: I have experience caring for and walking multiple large dogs at once. I have also cared for elderly dogs and dogs with medical needs. I like to learn every dogs needs and behaviors so they feel safe when in my care. I’m a professional volleyball player home for the summer so my hours are very open! I am very active and can take your dogs for nice long walks. I respect the owners space and their recommendations for pet care. I make sure to understand the space so the animals feel safe when I enter their home and so I know where all their necessities are.


“My husband and I found Ashley last minute before our vacation for our cat who needs daily medication. Ashley put our minds at ease that our cat would be in great hands and she met and exceeded all of our expectations. She was an excellent communicator while we were away and treated our cat like he were her own. We would absolutely reach out again if we ever needed anyone and are so thankful we found her!”


About: I've lived with and owned cats and dogs since I can remember. The last couple years are my first time not owning a pet since losing my 14 year-old Dachshund in 2022. I'm looking to establish and grow local connections and I look forward to the fulfillment I will receive from spending time with, playing with and caring for others' pets! I've taken care of cats, dogs, rodents, and bearded dragons for many years. I'm the go-to person for my friends and family to contact for assistance with grooming, overnight stays, and support or advice when health issues arise or behaviors change. I learned it all by experience and my mom who was a veterinary technician for Dr. Cates and later worked at the Potter League. I currently work full-time in a remote hybrid position. I'm home in Middletown three days out of the five day work week and I'm available weekends. I take pride in the fact my friend's family loves that I leave their home looking like I was never there. I believe in upholding the pets typical schedule regarding walks, going out, play, feedings and medicine if needed.

“Lauren was so friendly and sweet. She came over the day before for a meet and greet and our dogs took to her very easily. Lauren was very respectful and responsible and took great care of our dogs both times she can’t to our home. I would highly recommend Lauren!”


“Vanessa went above and beyond for her check in today with my dogs! She put up with me being a neurotic dog mom, updated me and stayed in contact the whole walk with them. 10/10 recommend. It’s always comforting to find someone reliable and who is genuinely looking out for your dogs like they’re her own. I shared my concerns and she got me. Everything went perfect and I’m happy my energetic puppy is tuckered out! Followed all instructions for me”

“From the moment we met Laine, we knew she was the person we needed watching our 3 boys (cats) while we were away for a week. Laine has a very calming, soothing presence and that translated directly to her care while we were away. I left her a list of important info and FYI’s and she went well above and beyond, every single day. She treated our boys as if they were her own and was so communicative with us the entire time. I’m a bit of a nervous cat mom so this was invaluable and put my mind at ease far more than I could have anticipated. She sent amazing pictures and left our space better than even we left it. That’s saying something because our boys are very messy. She earned their trust with patience (along with some treats and catnip) and a special touch. She even let us know when one of our boys had a bit of an issue with diarrhea. Her attention to detail is second to none. I’m so grateful to have found her here, she truly cares about animals and gave us peace of mind that our boys were in the best hands possible. I truly believe that’s something money can’t buy! Laine is simply incredible, I’ll spend a long time trying to find the right words to thank her. We can’t wait to book her again for our trips!”


About: I've been taking care of animals since we got our pups Buffy and Willow when I was 10 years old. They were a Maltese/Shih Tzu mix, so cute! Since then I have owed 3 Guinea pigs (Cairo, Jupiter and Poppy) and a cat (Meshka). I'm thankful that I have a low-maintenance pet like Meshka because I work full time at my 9-5. I do have cameras in my house so I can keep an eye on Meshka thought-out the day. I remember when I got him as a 2 month old I would always go home during my lunch breaks to check up on him for the first 6 months that I had him. When I leave for work I make sure not to leave anything hazardous out. I usually keep the bathroom and kitchen doors closed so Meshka doesn't get into those rooms while I'm away

“She was amazing and very communicative and my cat Nugget loved her especially when she picked him up and hug him he loved it, she did everything I asked I’ll definitely be calling her again for Nugget.”
