“Kendra was amazing! She arrived on time every day to serve up Shark’s automatic feeder. She played and brushed her and kept everything clean and tidy. I would highly recommend and would definitely use again when needed. Shark was well cared for and was happy when we came home.”


“First time we scheduled Abby everything worked perfectly. Looking forward to having her walk our super active pup while we’re on vacation. Very grateful to find someone we trust to care for our young dog.”

“I greatly appreciated Susan’s diligent care of my elderly dog over the Thanksgiving holidays. It’s hard to leave a beloved pet over the holidays, but I could tell by Susan’s daily messages that I didn’t need to worry. She walked him twice daily which he loves. He even seemed to eat better for her than he does for me! I will definitely use her again.”

“Gina was great with Frankie! I loved the pictures that she posted, and I could see how Frankie was doing. It was so nice to not have to worry about her. We would definitely ask Gina to take care of her again.”

“Evan and his daughter Emma were amazing with my puppy Luna. My 3 month old puppy didn’t go potty in the house with him or in her crate which is amazing and he made she sure was taken care of and even sent me pictures then left a super kind letter for me at the end of his stay with her. Thank you so much and I highly recommend Evan!”

About: I am an upcoming veterinarian, so to say I have a passion for animal care is an understatement. I have had animals since I was a young girl and have always wanted to be very involved with their care. I have worked in the veterinary field for about 4 years, caring for animals from the most critical conditions to puppies who just need their first nail trims. There are a lot of sitters out there, but I can say without a doubt that I can give some of the best pet care available. I offer medication administration and can keep up with responsibilities like physical therapy, grooming, cleaning, etc. Additionally, the funds I receive here will go directly into my college account to pay for my current classes! Supporting me is supporting a future veterinarian. I work long hours in the middle of the day during the week. Which means post work, cool evenings are the best time for me to get out and exercise. For me, mornings look like providing moisture to my reptiles, feeding my cat, and playing with my border collie. Afternoons, I have a one hour lunch break. Meaning I can check on my pets, or other pets that are nearby. Evenings are my time. I’ll usually exercise and play until the sun goes down before playing video games with my friends or studying. Regarding walks, I have experience with canine behavior and high level obedience dog training. I have worked with aggressive, outgoing, and shy dogs in a way that makes them feel comfortable exploring the world around them. I’m very open minded if you have specific ways you’d like your pet handled, too! And, of course, I will never miss a poop cleanup. Regarding in home sitting, I can provide a wide variety of services. Shy kitties, nervous dogs, reptiles, amphibians, and livestock- nothing is too big of a job. But I’m not afraid to ask questions if I don’t understand how to best take care of your babies. A typically drop in visit consists of food/water, any cleanup service needed, safety checks, and outside/playtime if needed!
“Kristin was great. We really appreciate how thorough she was at our meet and greet. Our family enjoyed her message updates and pictures. Our boys were well loved while we were gone.”

About: I have been a pet sitter for the last 12 years. I provide attentive, reliable, and loving care for a wide range of pets, ensuring their well-being through feeding, grooming, and regular exercise and cuddles. With experience administering medications as needed, I prioritize your pet's health and comfort. I maintain open communication with pet owners, offering regular updates for peace of mind. In addition to pet care, I am happy to accommodate special requests such as light household chores, collecting mail or packages, and handling unexpected situations to make your time away as stress-free as possible. Your pet’s happiness and safety are my top priorities! I am currently a grad student and work part-time on week days, so I am able to check in during the afternoons and will spend a majority of my time with your pet(s) in the evenings and nights. My weekends are widely open to provide extra love and attention to your pet(s)! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on creating a comfortable and familiar environment for your pets. I follow their usual routines, including feeding schedules, exercise, and any specific care instructions you provide. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection to reduce any stress while you're away. I also understand that not all pets will warm up right away, so I have plenty of patience for "shy" pets. Most of my dogsitting experience has been for rescues, so they hold a special place in my heart. If medication or special care is needed, I am experienced and more than happy to administer it. I can provide regular updates and photos so you know how your pets are doing. I also ensure that your home is well cared for and safe.
About: I’ve been a devoted dog lover for over 17 years, caring not only for my own beloved dog—who lived a long, happy life to age 17—but also for the dogs of friends, family, and neighbors. I’ve had hands-on experience with a wide range of breeds and personalities, including Labradors, Retrievers, a Lab/Pug mix, Border Collies, Huskies, and Corgis. This has taught me how to tune into each dog’s unique needs, energy level, and temperament. What truly sets me apart is the way I care. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs—whether that means active play, a calm check-in, or simply making sure they feel safe and loved while you’re away. I understand how important it is to trust the person entering your home and caring for your pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. Your dog won’t just be “checked on”—they’ll be cared for with kindness, respect, and real affection. How Pet Care Fits Into My Routine Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine, and I especially enjoy morning visits. I’m an early riser, so I’m reliable and available for those important first check-ins of the day—feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, and a calm, positive start for your dog. I plan my schedule around my visits to make sure each pet gets my full attention without feeling rushed. Mornings are a priority for me, but I also have flexibility to accommodate other times when needed. I truly enjoy these visits—they’re something I look forward to. Your dog will be greeted with kindness, patience, and genuine care every time I arrive. How I Care for Pets in Your Home I stop by and check in on your dog while you’re away for the day or weekend, so they can stay comfortable in their own home. During each visit, I make sure they have fresh water, are fed as you prefer, and get a potty break, attention, and some companionship. I like to take a little extra time with each dog—whether that’s a bit of play, a short walk, or just sitting with them so they feel relaxed and not alone. I keep my service area within about a 10-minute drive so I can be dependable and on time for every visit. As I get more established, I may also offer overnight stays for small dogs down the road. I treat every dog like they’re my own, because I know how much they mean to you.
“Jessica was supper helpful watching our 95lb golden retriever while we were away for a week. She was super flexible and was able to even help us twice a day! Will use in the future.”

“Rachel was more than great! I definitely will be booking with her again 😊 I felt 100% comfortable leaving our 3 dogs at home w her coming by to check in & let out, as well as made sure they ate// meds were given - even when one wanted to be lazy couch potato instead of going potty outside for the morning. 10/10 recommend! 🩵🩵🩵”


“Spencer Ann was so helpful in watching my animals while I was out of town. She communicated consistently and thoroughly and worked around a schedule change in my travel. Took great care of them while I was gone and took lots of pictures. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone!”

“Zara was prompt and took good care of our cats. She sent us a lot of pictures of the cats and the food. She played with the cats and kept them entertained. They look forward to her visits now.”


About: I've been around pets my whole life. I currently have two senior dogs that I have raised since they were puppies and am familiar with administering animal medication as one of my dogs is diabetic. I have always had cats as well and am familiar with their needs and when to give them space. I am a full-time student, so traditional jobs are difficult, but I have plenty of time during the day for pet care. During the summer I am very available from mornings to afternoons to nights. I don't vacation often or have many obligations outside of school which allows me plenty of time for pets. I am willing to look after any age, any size and any temperament. I am willing to go to a client's home or take pets for walks or for a ride in the car if they enjoy. I don't have much experience in training, though I am learning, but I am patient and forgiving and will play fetch all day or be a cuddle buddy for the more sedentary pets too.
“Ryleigh was awesome. She was always on time and gave my girl Bandee lots of love. Bandee always looked happy and content in the pictures that were sent. I will definitely use Ryleigh again to take care of Bandee. Thank you Ryleigh!!”

“Olivia was awesome with our kitty- he can be slow to warm up to new people, and she was very patient with him and his spicy tendencies. Olivia is very prompt in her communication and very thorough in ensuring that all directions are understood and followed. We will definitely be using her services again!”

About: Life is not complete without a dog, I have had a dog in my life as long as I can remember. Dogs are my world. I am home 24/7. I enjoy all kinds of dogs. I have a dog who loves playing with other dogs. I am a young 65 Currently i have a 2 yr-old dog who really enjoys companionship of others. I have a fenced in front/back yard. I plan to take the dogs to the local dog park.

About: I’d make an excellent dog sitter because I bring energy, attentiveness, and a genuine love for animals into everything I do. Even without formal experience, I’m highly responsible and quick to learn, which means I’ll carefully follow any instructions to keep each animal happy, healthy, and on their routine. I’m naturally patient and observant, so I can pick up on personality and needs with confidence! Whether that means playful energy, calm companionship, or extra care and reassurance. Most importantly, I truly enjoy spending time with animals, and I would treat every pet like my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and excited while their owner is away! I am currently working part time and going to school part time. I am free most days and want to still remain productive in any way I can. I ensure cleanliness and safety when it comes to being in someone’s home. I love to clean and tidy up whenever I can! As an introvert, I love quietness so noise isn’t something I emit a bunch of.
