“Jessica was a fantastic caretaker for our cats. She was attentive and communicative with us and we would hire her again in a heartbeat!! Thanks so much Jessica!”
“Alina was great with my dog, Moose! She was prompt and made sure to take up the whole 30 minutes, and my dog really enjoyed her company! I would recommend Alina to anyone looking for a dog walker in the area.”
“Erin is such a friendly, caring professional. She made me feel comfortable right away, and clearly loves dogs! My dog Luna was in her lap within the first minute of meeting her. Erin is very responsive, communicative, and flexible. Could not recommend her more!”
“Elisa was responsive and sent detailed photos with each visit. She also responded well despite my cat having bitten her (a previously unseen behavior) and completed the visits.”
“Tom was great! He was very receptive and kept us in the loop with how our dog was doing during his visit. Because she is very timid with new people, he was willing to do a meet and greet with her beforehand. Tom was also very flexible with some last minute schedule changes. Thank you so much Tom!”
“Jupiter has been amazing! Often times, we would have to add or cancel day sitting sessions and Jupiter never had any problems with the change. Only reason we are leaving is because we were moving, otherwise we would keep Jupiter for our dogs entire life!”
“Absolutely amazing 🤩 thank you so much for watching Myles and Fyodor while we were away. To name a few things we loved - the toys you shared to keep our kitties entertained,your attire, attitude, communication and pictures! :))”
“On time, flexible, responsive, attentive and patient with our dogs, especially our older pup who is slower to warm up to new people. Will hire him again!”
“Excellent! Really good communication. Will definitely request her again.”
“Danielle was fantastic! Super friendly, easy to communicate with. Danielle did drop in visits daily for our cat while we were out of state over the holidays for a little over a week - she even popped over to visit the house and meet the cat prior to our departure. She sent daily photos and texts, even brought in some mail that had been delivered unexpectedly. We're so happy to have found her and will definitely book her again.”
About: I have been carings for dogs of all sizes since I was a teenager. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and give necessary medication to their pets, as well as care for their pets overnight when theyre on vacation. I'm currently a stay-at-home mom with all three kids in school, so I will have plenty on time to care for your dog on weekdays between 8am and 2pm. When I walk your dog or drop by for a check in, I can play games with them, talk sweet to them and give them lots of love and snuggles.
“Michelle has been fantastic with our golden retriever Troy! We highly recommend Michelle for high quality drop in visits as she cares for Troy like one of our own family.”
“Jessica is great. Patient, kind and communicative.”
About: As a devoted dachshund mom, I understand how much our pets mean to us- my dog Max is my best friend, and is my world! I know firsthand how important it is to have a reliable, personalized, and caring sitter who treats your pet like family. Whether your pup needs extra attention, playtime, or snuggles, I’m here to provide the same level of care I’d want for my own dog. When I’m not working as a wetland scientist, I love spending time with animals, and I’d love to help care for your dog or cat while I’m away. I’m comfortable with all sizes and types of dogs, and cats as well. I know that separation can be hard (for pets and their humans!), so I’ll make sure you stay updated with plenty of photos and check-ins. You can relax knowing your pet is in good hands 😊 I have limited commitments during the weekends other than taking care of my dog. I have a car and flexibility to take care of your pets like they are my own. I work full time as an environmental scientist and am primarily available on Fridays through Sundays. I am also available for holidays. I am a homeowner myself so will treat your space with care. I am detail-oriented and will plan to connect with you to gather any details on your pet's care and needs prior to pet sitting for you!
“Xinrui has been absolutely amazing for drop-in visits for my dog! My dog is a senior with a serious health condition, and she was so accommodating to his pills and feeding schedule. Her updates are timely, I get great pictures and videos, and she is extremely reliable! I will definitely be using Xinrui in the future!”
“Kim and Kenn are wonderful cat sitters for our cat Casper. We loved their updates and feel very comforted by their care for our beloved cat when we are traveling.”
“My dogs are my world. They aren't the easiest and I was hesitant to leave them in someone else's care. My husband and I chose Bethany. She had no problems with them and for the first time in years we are able to go away. We are confident knowing Kingsley and Rosa are being well taken care of by her. I highly recommend Bethany.”
About: I have loved and trained my own dogs (Maltese, Labrador, Rescue Mix and Golden Retriever) for the past 20+ years and have also taken care of, loved and helped friends with their pets and their pet sitting needs for a lot longer. I'd be happy to help you with your fur baby and will treat them as my own. I am currently working remotely in my home full time for the foreseeable future and would love to be able to help someone locally with their pet(s). I would love to play with your pet, walk them, give them fresh water, give them lots of scratches and attention - whatever you would normally do for them, I'd be willing to step in and help in your absence. Lights on? Lights off? Special treats? Let me know!

Fenced yard they get let out in to play, sun & use bathroom throughout the day. Water always stocked. Bones provided if approved.

“Sara was a great pet sitter for our dogs and cats. She was very responsive and went the extra mile offering to make some rice for one of our dogs when she wasn't feeling well. Luckily our dog was feeling much better by the end of the day. She communicated with pictures after every visit. I highly recommend her and we will call on her again the next time we have a need for a sitter.”
