“Having Kari stay with our cat, Clancy, for 8 days while we were away was fantastic — and such a relief. Kari sent us daily pictures and videos of Clancy so we had a good sense of his contentment and well-being. Kari is so caring about animals and takes her responsibilities to them very seriously. She followed our specific instructions perfectly and we arrived home to a healthy, happy cat! I highly recommend Kari for any pet-sitting need you may have!”


“Maura was amazing with our dogs! She was very prompt in answering messages and went above and beyond to make sure our 3 dogs were taken care of while we went on a mini vacation. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her again!”


“Julie did a great job caring for our dogs! She sent lots of picture updates and was a quick communicator. Julie was able to be at our home with the dogs the majority of each day to keep them company. She gave them new toys and spent a lot of time with them playing outside!”


“Ella was amazing. She took my booking last minute and responded quickly. Ella showed up on time and seemed eager to meet our boys. You can tell Ella genuinely loves animals. Ella made us feel comfortable leaving the boys behind in her care. We came home to happy kids and the house just the way we left it. Ella kept in contact during her stay and sent us pictures and updates often. I would definitely book Ella again! Highly recommended!”


“Jade was fantastic! She took this on at the last minute due to an emergency, but took incredible care of our dogs and cat. The house was immaculate when we got back home. Highly recommended!”

About: I have lived on a farm my whole life and I have been surrounded by animals since I was little. I have taken care of dogs from newborn to senior and everything in between. I have lots of experience with puppies and older dogs. I grew up around labs, German shepherds, Australian shepherds, and many mix breeds. I have had lots of cats and I know to how care for and love them as well! I currently set my own hours, so I have plenty of time to care for your wonderful pet or pets! If you have a time or set of times in mind, I am happy to work with you. I am happy to help in any manner you wish for your pet or pets!

About: I have always had at least one dog in my house from the moment I was born! I have been around all types of dogs, from large breeds to small. When I was 14, I was able to get my own dog in addition to our family dog. I have raised him from 3 months old to now (almost 9 years old) and have poured every ounce of love into him! He is a very attached dog with a lot of anxiety bundled into him, so I have experience with that! Our family dog lives until the age of 15, so I have experience with senior care and the extra love it takes to care for them. I have always been asked by friends and family to watch their pets because I promise to love them like my own. I am also a physician assistant student, so I do have a background in medicine and am trustworthy in various aspects. I am a physician assistant student getting ready to start clinical rotations in a few weeks. My schedule will really depend on what clinical rotation I am in. Some will only be a few days a week, while others will be every day. Feel free to reach out to see what we can work out! I have a huge yard at my home with no neighbors and a long lane away from any highway. I never let my dog outside without someone with him the entire time day or night. When visiting another home, my care is dependent on what is requested of me. If a client prefers a leash at all times outside, that is what I do. If there is a specific routine, I make sure to follow it. Dogs and cats are very routine oriented, and a stranger entering can already cause stress and anxiety, so I try to help with that in anyway I can. Only their owner knows them best!

About: I grew up with 3 large breed dogs and have done 2 years of dog walking / pet sitting! During my 2 years of pet sitting, I took care of puppies from 6 weeks old to senior dogs. Things that fell under the description of ‘took care of’ are; picking up poop, feeding / following dietary schedules, administering medications, walks, play time, bathroom breaks, training work, mental stimulation (snuffle mats, kongs, etc.) I do daily dog walks, and am helping my parents raise and train a German shepherd! I also have 2 cats of my own at home. I will travel to your home by car! I do not offer care for your pets in my home due to my cats not being very sociable haha!!
