“Abigail was fantastic! It’s the first time we’ve left our dog and cat since moving here and we needed to feel really comfortable. Abigail communicated with us often and sent pictures frequently. She also left our place nicer than we left it. So happy to have found Abigail and 100% recommend.”


About: I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely love caring for animals. I take time to understand each pet’s personality and needs—whether that’s playtime, quiet companionship, or extra attention. You can count on me to treat your pet like family and keep you updated so you always feel at ease. I take care of my three cats morning and night, feeding them three times a day with fresh water at every meal. This routine has taught me the importance of consistency, attention, and creating a calm environment for pets. I’m experienced in providing loving care, monitoring their needs closely, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable throughout the day. I no longer have my dog, but I am more than comfortable with dogs as well! When caring for pets in your home, I prioritize maintaining their regular routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I follow your instructions carefully, whether it’s feeding schedules, exercise, or medication—and give each pet plenty of attention and affection. I make sure their environment stays clean and safe, and I provide updates so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

“Ashlend was awesome! I found her very last minute due to some last minute plans. Even though she already had other dogs she was taking care of she made it work. She made sure to come meet everyone ahead of time and sent sweet pictures. When we got home it was like we never left because I think everyone was so comfortable with Ashlend here. Highly recommend!”


“Absolutely phenomenal care for my pups and my home. Emily texted and sent pics daily keeping me up to date on everything with the dogs. Highly recommend her to care for your furry family members!”

Whether it’s a fun walk, playtime, or just cuddling up, I’m here to ensure your pet is well taken care of and enjoys their time with me. Let’s give your pets the love and attention they deserve! I just recently lost my sweet boy, who was very elderly. I took care of him daily to clean his ears, help him up and down stairs, as well as helping him eat. I have a very wide experience of taking care of pups! I currently working full-time as a physical educator, as well as a volleyball coach. I am available evenings and weekends all day! If I board your pups, I live right by my work place which allows me to stop in and let them out through out the day and give them attention! With a genuine love for animals and a deep understanding of their unique needs, I offer personalized pet care services both in your home and in mine. Whether it's a walk, playtime, feeding, or just some extra TLC, I strive to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved in every environment. In your home, I maintain your pet's daily routine, ensuring they feel secure and at ease. I provide familiar surroundings and consistent care, reducing the stress of your absence.

My home is a pet-friendly space where your furry friends can relax, play, and enjoy a comfortable environment while you're away. I offer plenty of attention, exercise, and love, making sure they feel right at home in a safe, cozy space.

“Payton was AMAZING! She came ahead of time to meet our babies and she went above and beyond to take care of them. I spent all weekend with no worries. Worth it! Would recommend her to everyone! Thanks again Payton!”


“Jessie did a fabulous job with our two 50lb Bernedoodles. at a competitive rate at the time of our booking. Jessie did great to give us daily updates with picture and video. That is always reassuring. Our home was in great shape upon return, so she did more than just watch dogs. Would definitely use Jessie again. This was our 1st time having someone sit in our home. For us this seems to make a lot of sense to allow our dogs to be in their comfort zone. Jessie also had her service dog which was probably an added treat for our dogs. I could see this being a complication for some.”


“Jordyn is the absolute best! She was so flexible and understanding of our situation. Our Allie was loved just like she was at home!! We can’t wait for Allie to stay again!”


About: I have always had dogs, and as an adult have done a lot of training work with my dogs including good canine citizen training and obedience. I believe dogs have their own desires and likes, and I encourage dogs to explore and enjoy life the way they want, in a safe environment. This means I only control a dog as needed to make them safe, and the rest of the time they can follow their nose and make decisions for themselves. Does the dog want to sniff every plant we pass- ok! Does the dog want to follow this animal track - yeah let’s go! Love digging- let’s head to the beach! I have had boxer dogs as an adult, and they are very expressive and will communicate what they want all the time- you just have to learn their language. I have honed the ability to learn and interpret dog sounds and body language to understand what they want. For my current dog, I started training him on the talking buttons so he can express more of what he wants, which has been amazing! We have a huge property with a swimming pond, so if your pup likes water, this will be heaven! Mine does and when he starts walking towards the pond I know it’s swim time! We have mowed path that is about 1 mile walk around the property as well, so plenty of walks and romps and swimming will be had! We work from home, with yard access and play throughout the rest of day. Our dog needs a lot of running, and having other dogs to play with is great for socialization too. We have a large yard, with a boxer who is great with small and large dogs. We all cuddle on the couch, walk, swim and play in the yard, and sleep in the same room.

About: I love dogs. You can expect me to love and care for your dog while you are out. I will play with your dogs and take care of thier needs while you are away. I used to Foster dogs. I work as a security officer. I work Saturday through Tuesday. Monday and Tuesday are nights but can come before I go to work and I have 3 days off in the row that I will be able to come at anytime. I love dogs and like I said I work but would love to work with dogs on my free and days off that I have. It will help with extra money and I will get to love and show affection to dogs as well. I am currently not working at the moment so I have a pretty open availability at the moment. When that changes I will update it on here. I will care for my clients dog like I would my own. I will make sure to give them attention and take them out and play with them take them for walks. I would notify you if something were to happen or if I notice the animal was acting off. I give my dog lots of attention and love we cuddle with each other.

About: I’ve been a pet owner for 10+ years. My fur babies are my world. I believe all animals deserve to be loved. Choose the best. I’m going to school part time and I would love to enjoy my free time taking care of some fur babies. Ask me your questions. I have a fenced in backyard. I live right by a park and university. I have an upstairs and downstairs in my home. Many space.

About: I have been a tech for 14 years so your pets will be beyond safe with me. I love animals and make a lot of play time and attention. Making them feel loved and cared for while you’re gone. I am currently working part-time, allowing me ample opportunity to play with your pet and give it the attention it deserves. I am available for in-home pet sitting any day and time, ensuring your pet feels as comfortable as if you were home. For walks, I am available in the early mornings or late evenings to avoid the extreme heat and ensure your pet's safety and comfort. I care for pets in a client's home as if they were my own. I ensure they are taken outside multiple times a day, and I always provide fresh water and food. If medications are necessary, I administer them properly and on schedule. I make sure that pets receive ample attention, playtime, and snuggles, ensuring they remain happy and content while you are away.

About: I worked with a dog rescue for over a year. I was in charge of socialization of the severe abuse cases, exercising and feeding the 50+ dogs on our site. I have experience with 3 week old pups & bottle feeding, walking and loving on 150 pound dogs, and taking care of those with special needs & the elderly. I have personally fostered 10+ different dogs, usually strays I find. I'm a sucker for bully breeds and goofy ears, but all dogs will be sure to get excellent treatment and my undivided attention. I have one spoiled 9 year old hound mix with megaesophagus, so I'm used to giving pills to pups regularly! She's very chill and a good sport with all dogs and cats. I work a full-time job 8-5, M-F, but have flexibility to let dogs out over lunch! Let me spoil and love your pet like my own! I'm a full-time worker, but my job has extreme flexibility to let out pets over lunch or beforw/after work! I work 8-5p usually and can take a lunch whenever needed! I will always ask and adhere to whatever standards and schedule you have set for your pets! As for my dog, she is spoiled rotten. It's her world and I just live in it. That being said, she isn't destructive and is house trained. I do put on a vibrating/loud noise collar to deter barking when I'm not home since she is a hound. When she is outside on the lead, I sit on the porch with her for safety. Dogs are allowed on the couches and beds at my house. While I have a crate, I have never used it in the 3.5 years I've had my pup because I've never needed it. I have used crates with past fosters who benefited from that routine.
