1. Trina N.

“Trina is a gem! I feel so lucky to have found her and she took wonderful care of my kitty Izzy. So good in fact I didn't even get meowed at loudly on my return 5 days later! She played with her, fed her let her sit on her lap as much as she wanted which was a lot I'm sure. She's very conscientious and I felt like she cared for my kitty like she would want hers cared for. Izzy looks wonderful and wasn't traumatized by my leaving. BTW, my cat is 17, deaf, arthritic with kid ey disease who is super attached to me so I was terrified to leave her. But once I met Trina at the interview, I knew she would love Izzy as one of her own. I highly highly recommend her for persisting and overnights. She's the best!”

“We really enjoyed having Nicole watch our fur babies. She sent us pictures of George and Ginger while we were out of town. They looked happy and well taken care of. Thank you again, Nicole!”


6. Juniper L.
“Juniper has been a good friend of mine since we were little. There has always been animals in her home and she was always the one to take care of them! She’s taken care of my pets when me and family were gone on vacation and they always looked better when we got back. She’s very patient and playful, I think working with animals would be a perfect job for her.”


7. Brendle W.

“Brendle was delightful and our 2 dogs had the best time with her. She hung out with them for 5 hours while we went to watch our son’s championship game. Brendle took them on a 2 mile hike, played ball at the park, and they were thoroughly and happily exhausted at the end of her stay. I cannot say enough nice things about Brendle! She is a gem!”


8. Siara N.
“I am picky about who I will let watch our four legged children but Siara is the best! Our dogs and cats love her which makes it easier to leave them when we know she will be watching them. Very responsible and trustworthy!”


9. Anida S.
About: I have looked after both dogs and cats for multiple years of friends and family. What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of personalized care I give to each pet. I treat your pet like family, whether that means sticking closely to their routine, giving them extra cuddles, or understanding their unique quirks and needs. I have experience with a wide range of pets, including dogs and cats of all sizes and breeds. I'm comfortable administering medication and even handling leash reactivity for dogs. Clear communication, reliability, and genuine love for animals are at the core of everything I do. I currently work full-time but will be leaving soon to continue my education in a Masters program! I am available most Wednesdays and weekends as well as majority of evenings during the week. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my top priorities are keeping their routine consistent, making them feel safe and loved, and respecting your space as if it were my own. I take the time to learn your pet’s habits, feeding schedule, walk routine if applicable, and favorite toys or activities. Whether it’s playtime, quiet companionship, or a long walk, I adjust to what your pet needs most. I also send regular updates and photos, so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. Cleanliness, clear communication, and attention to detail are part of every visit.


10. Madisyn T.
About: For as long as I can remember, animals have always been apart of my life. I have owned a wide variety of animals such as dogs, cats, goats, chickens, and a guinea pig. I am a third year student at James Madison University studying biology with a pre veterinary medicine minor. I have worked in the veterinary industry for 5 years as a kennel technician and veterinary assistant. This job has not only allowed me to become adequately trained in pet care, but has also shown me how much I love being around animals. I am so excited to continue my pet care journey and I am looking forward to getting to meet more people and pets!! I am a full time student, but spend almost all of my free time with animals. To care for pets at my clients homes, I either stay overnight or return multiple times a day to ensure pets stay safe, healthy, and happy. I make it my priority to care for pets in the same manner as their owners would. With that being said, I work diligently to follow clients instructions to better ensure a smooth experience for you and your pet.

12. Alexis C.
“We used Alexis to watch our four dogs and she did a phenomenal job. Would definitely recommend her with no hesitation. She was very easy to work with and could tell she genuinely loves animals. She sent many pictures and updates during her stay which was much appreciated. We will be using her as our regular sitter.”


13. Julia W.

“Julia did an amazing job! My pets immediately loved her and she took great care of them while I was gone for a week. My house was super clean when I got back too. 5/5 would rebook again! :)”


14. Carson G.
“If you're looking for someone reliable and caring to check in on your cat while you're away, look no further than Carson. They're the ultimate feline friend in your absence! Some cats can be a bit shy with new people, but Carson knows just how to make them feel welcome.”

20. Kaleigh S.
