About: I have owned a dog since I was 7, along with helped local families by watching their dogs while on vacation. Along with during college, helping a breeder with her pups and personal dogs ranging from 1 day old to 12 years old. I am currently working an internship 3 days a week. I am completely free on my days off with just trips to the gym and local coffee shops. I am willing to spends time playing with dogs and going for walks on my days off due to having an open schedule. I am comfortable coming to other houses to make sure their dogs stay less stressed and feel for comfortable in their surroundings. I take them for walks in the neighborhood on leashes.
“Jessica did a fantastic job with our dogs! Smokey and Bandit were both well cared for while we were away. She was also flexible when we had a change of plans due to weather! 10/10 would definitely recommend!”

“Hailey was amazing! Sent us great updates and gave us complete peace of mind. Thanks for taking such great care of our dog! Will definitely be using her dog-sitting services more!”

“Grace was fantastic. She stayed with my three dogs for ten days and sent pictures and updates on everyone. Great at communicating and left the home in great order. Will definitely use her services in the future!”

“Quinn was absolutely amazing with our pups! We had a last minute trip that required someone to stay with our dogs at our house for 7 days and Quinn went over and beyond. She took our dogs to the apartment dog park daily and played with them for hours. Would recommend Quinn to anyone needing a loyal pet sitter who will treat your animals like her own. When we returned she washed all the bed sheets and tidy up the house so we returned to a clean home.”

“Paul is the person you want to care for your home and your pets while you are away! His communication was excellent, he sent frequent photos of our cat, and he took great care of everything household, even completing an unexpected household maintenance task. We returned to a pristinely clean home with everything organized so nicely for our home. I had confidence he would care lovingly for our cat from when they first met. Paul gave the immediate impression that he loves animals and has an innate sense for their needs. Thank you, Paul, for giving us a worry-free time away from home.”

“Brian is a great sitter! He walked my dog twice a day and sent me texts with pictures regularly. Brian also left my house in as good a shape as he found it! I highly recommend Brian as he very professional and a good communicator.”


“Alisha followed our dog caring instructions expertly. She was very communicative and sent pictures. And left our house in excellent condition. Felt very comfortable leaving our two dogs with her. Would book her again. 10 out of 10.”

“Jeanette did a fantastic job taking care of our old girl! She was very communicative, open to last minute adjustments, and kept us apprised on how our pup was doing! Highly recommend and will absolutely book with her again.”

About: I’ve grown up around animals and have experience taking care of my own cats and dogs. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, and giving pets the attention and care they need to feel safe and happy. I genuinely love animals and will treat your pets like they’re my own. I’m available weekdays and Saturdays with flexible scheduling. I’d love to help care for your pets and make sure they feel safe and happy. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment by following each pet’s routine, giving plenty of attention and care, monitoring behavior closely, and I will make sure pets feel comfortable, secure, and happy while in my care.

About: Hello! I’ve been surrounded by dogs my whole life even though I’ve never had any of my own. This includes looking after and taking care of family members’ pups while growing up. Other than family, I’ve watched the same dog on multiple occasions, including two separate 3-week stays where I was responsible for feeding, walking, playing, and keeping him company. One of those stays was in my own space, so I’m comfortable managing a dog’s needs independently and keeping up with their routine. I don’t currently have pets of my own, but I’m very attentive, responsible, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I offer drop-in visits, walks, and in-home sitting, and I’ll send updates and cute photos of your pup so you feel at ease while you’re away. I work from 12–8 M-F, so I’m available in the mornings and later in the evening for walks, drop-ins, and check-ins. I can also do overnight house sitting depending on the situation. On weekends I have more flexibility and can spend more time with pets or do multiple visits throughout the day. I’m pretty consistent with my schedule, so it’s easy for me to plan around a pet’s routine and make sure they’re taken care of. I know every dog is a little different, so I try to stick as close as possible to whatever routine they’re used to. Whether that’s specific feeding times, walk schedules, or just how they like to hang out, I’ll follow what you leave for me. I’m pretty mindful in general, so I’m always making sure doors are locked, they’re not getting into anything they shouldn’t, and they’re safe and comfortable the whole time. I’ll keep you updated while you’re gone so you don’t have to worry, and I’ll treat your home and your pet with respect. My goal is for you to come back to a happy pet and everything exactly how you left it.

“Our two boys love Angie! She’s very attentive, and treats our boys like her own. Love the pics and updates she sends throughout the day! She’s very flexible and we highly recommend her. Will definitely continue booking with Angie!!”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better petsitter! Amy is incredibly attentive, caring, and reliable, and our pets were so happy and well taken care of while we were away. She provided regular updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind and comfort knowing how happy they were in her care. It’s clear how much Amy genuinely care about animals, and she went above and beyond to make sure all of our pet’s needs were met - she also kept the house very orderly and clean. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust to care for their furry family member(s). Thank you again for everything!”

“Kennedy is amazing! She was available for us last minute. She sent pics and updates multiple times a day while we were gone. We will definitely be using her again in the future.”

About: I've been dropping in to aid family and friends with their dogs, cats, and other pets since I was in high school, and have been online doing general pet services for the last 3 or so years now. I myself have 3 cats and a snake. I have experience with giving cats eye medication, oral pills, medication mixed with treats/food, and creams. For dogs I've given creams and medication mixed with food/treats. I'm currently doing freelance work so my schedule is pretty flexible. Other than my own pet's schedule, I'm happy to find time for your pet's needs. I always make sure to check in with my clients to ensure they feel comfortable with me in their house. Things like where they're comfortable with me going and doing, where the pet(s) are allow to be, any routines that need to be done, and anything else they'd like to precaution or worry about.
