Rebekah is trustworthy and you won’t need to worry about your fur baby.”

About: I’ve taken care of babies and animals since I was a child myself! I have lots of love to give. I know how hard and stressful it can be to find good child care and pet care. I know how hard it is to trust others with your babies. With me, your little loves are safe and taken care of! I want to make this my full time job. So I try to have the most of open availability as I possibly can to take on as much love as I can! I do as directed! I can walk your babies, I can feed them, I can administer medications, even subcutaneously. I can make sure they’re happy and well observed and taken care of!

“Brittany was great! She was perfect for giving Shadow attention and making him feel comfortable. She also sent pictures and communicated with me regularly while staying with him. I would definitely use her again!!”


6. Katy N.


“I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter to stay with my 2 chihuahuas. My 16 year old started a new medicine a few days before I left her for 7 days. I was worried about her eating and getting her pill down since my dog recently became very smart about hiding pills in cheese, treats, etc. Katy made me feel so comfortable. She got my doggie to eat and always got her pill down, coming up with new ways to encourage her to eat. My other dog loved Katy.”


7. Madelaine M.

“Maddy did great again with Zinfy - she let me know of some issues and kept me informed thru the stay. Made me feel better about being away from my boy while he wasn't feeling well!”


8. Catherine L.
About: I LOVE animals. I have fostered over 10 cats and dogs with various health concerns so I am happy to take care of any animals with a variety of needs. I am unable to have dogs at my current place but need a little dog cuddle to brighten my day. I am working part time in downtown Troy and have a flexible schedule so I am able to accommodate fairly easily within reason. I am happy to work with you to come up with a routine schedule for you and your pet! I am unable to have pets at my current place so all pet care must be done within the clients home. I am willing to do anything that is needed for the pet(feeding, walking, medications, bathing, etc). I have experience with temperamental large dogs but would require history about the animal in order to help best care for them. I believe in positive reinforcement training and can incorporate this into the pet care if interested. All in all I will treat your pet just like my own!

15. Sydney S.
About: I’ve had a few dogs in my lifetime… from an American Eskimo, to a Golden Retriever, to a husky & now I have an Australian Shepherd. I LOVE dogs. I take pride in taking such good care of my own, and I would treat any/every dog with that same compassion & love. I have experience in dog sitting. I also have a lot of experience walking my own dogs… if you can walk a 65 pound eager husky, or a high-energy Aussie, you can walk just about any type of dog. I treat dogs better than I do humans. 🤍🐾 I am a high school teacher. I have the summer off, so I have plenty of time to walk & care for other people’s furry family members. I have a sweet pup of my own, Ripley, who can keep your dog company in my home & on walks. Your pupper is my top priority when in my care.

She is dependable and reliable and would be a good asset to your company. I feel any animal would be well taken care of.”
