“Amazing dog sitter! Took great care of my dogs, kept me updated, and made me feel comfortable while I was away. Reliable, caring, and I would definitely book again. Highly recommend!””
“Jamie was so wonderful to my dog, Roo! She was attentive and stayed with her even longer than expected to make sure Roo was comfortable and settled. She sent regular updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Roo clearly loved her, and I would absolutely book with Jamie again and recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter!”
About: I am a loving dog mom of a dog named Dottie. I sit for families in neighborhood and have been raised around dogs my whole life. I work night shift and I get off at 7 am I am up and around. I will be up a and available to walk dogs during the day and I am available on most weekends! I live in a peaceful community with a fenced in dog park and over an acre of greenery to play.I am also a dog mom of a 5 month golden doodle who loves to play!
About: I’ve had dogs all my life. I’ve been watching my friends and my friends families animals for a few years now while they vacation or anything comes up. I’ve done the walking, the repetitive throws back and forth, and the quick check in during a storm just to make sure they haven’t chewed the house to pieces. I’m naturally an early bird so checking in earlier then my normal 6-3ish work schedule isn’t an issue and anytime after I’m usually free I have a fenced in run area for free running if they’d like. My porch is screened in so they can have the outside time without getting out.
About: I have experience with all walks of life when it comes to animals. From fish to farm animals. I have two cats and two dogs and chickens and goats and pigs and ducks. Along with house birds. I am currently not working. I am a stay-at-home mom. So my schedule is pretty open. Especially to boarding I have the space for it. TimeWise I do work around my toddler schedule for dog walking and Cat sitting. I have a fenced in backyard. A very large house. I also have four kids that love animals. So an animal that loves kids would be preferred. But not completely out of the question if there is a child issue I can just keep my kids away from the animal. Pretty easy to fix.
“Markia did a wonderful job with my cat Norman, especially for it being her first time with him. She was very communicative throughout the entire process and followed all of my instructions carefully, including taking extra care with his food, Norman has no teeth, so his dry food needs to be softened with hot water, and she prepared it perfectly, even better than I usually do. I really appreciated the thoughtful touches, like putting out catnip for him, and I was pleasantly surprised that Norman came out for her, which says a lot given how shy he is. I would definitely book her again!”
About: I've taken care of many animals aince I was young and I've always had a bunch and all different kinds of animals and all size dogs I'm currently working full time as a caregiver but I'm available to work every Monday and Wednesday at any time but during the other days I'm not available after 3pm I have caged dogs that would be put up when I'm sitting and and I fenced yard but lots of room for them to play around with on the long leash
About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my combination of hands on vet tech experience and personal experience caring for a special needs dog of my own. This gives me a well rounded understanding of both medical awareness and everyday pet comfort. I’m confident handling everything from routine care to recognizing when something isn’t quite right, and I stay calm in stressful situations. I also know how important patience, consistency, and gentle handling are, especially for pets that need a little extra support or have specific health requirements. I am a free bird as I just recently separated from the United States Navy. So my schedule is as open as open can be! Any day and time of the week you need me I am here! I care for every pet as if they were my own, focusing first on safety, comfort, and consistency in their routine. In a client’s home, I make sure to follow all instructions exactly as given so the pet stays in a familiar environment with minimal disruption. I keep their feeding, walking, medication, and play schedules consistent, and I pay close attention to their behavior so I can quickly notice any changes in appetite, mood, or health. With my vet tech experience, I’m confident in recognizing signs of stress or illness and responding appropriately, including seeking veterinary care if needed. I’m also especially mindful of pets with special needs, senior pets, or puppies who require extra supervision, patience, and gentle handling. In my own home, I maintain a clean, pet-safe environment that is calm and structured. I supervise interactions at all times, ensure pets are never put in unsafe situations, and provide plenty of enrichment, attention, and comfort so they feel secure and cared for.
About: I’ve taken care of 6+ litters of puppies, the largest being 10 pups! I have cared for pets of all shapes and sizes from bearded dragons to Great Danes! I currently work part time so i have plenty of time to play with your pets! I can house sit whenever I’m not booked, and quick visits will usually be around 8 am and 8 pm. Pet care is entirely up to the owners! If there are specific instructions to pet care let me know and I’ll do my best to cater to your pets needs. I can crate pets if preferred as well.
“Connie is the absolute best! She is kind, friendly and has a wonderful heart. She is reliable and dependable and always sent us photos. She cared for our ? kids as if they were her own. We will always have a place in our hearts for her. We will most definitely let her care for our ? kids and would recommend her to everyone.”
About: I am a dog owner and have always had dogs in my home. I love how loyal they are and enjoy their company. I would love to host your dog and give them somewhere fun and loving to stay where you don’t have to worry about them. I’m currently working hybrid so Friday-Monday I’ll be able to keep an eye on your pup and play all day. I am also available in the evening Tuesday-Thursday. I have a fenced yard so your babies can enjoy lots of outside time without the restriction of a leash. I also have a dog of my own who will be a great companion. We go on two walks a day and would love to have a friend to go along with us.
About: Hi! I’ve always loved animals and have had dogs basically my whole life. I’ve grown up with all kinds of dogs, from tiny, super energetic puppies to bigger dogs who love to pull on the leash lol, so I’m pretty comfortable with different personalities and energy levels. I also currently have a cat, so I’m definitely comfortable with cats too! I genuinely just love being around animals and getting to know their little personalities. I know every pet is different, so I’m happy to follow whatever routine, instructions, or preferences your pet is used to. I’d love to be someone you can trust to take care of your pets and give them lots of attention and love while you’re away! 🐾 I am currently working for myself, so my schedule is super flexible! I would love to accommodate to you and your baby’s needs. I am typically available on Monday-Sunday from 8am-10pm. I love a good hike! :) I am Pet CPR and First Aid certified and will treat your pets as if they are my own! I am open to communication on how YOU would love for me to care for your pet!
“Love Doreen!!!! I watched her a bit with Grey, and I could tell he was so happy with her! He loves a good floor cuddle, so I was super happy to see her actually on the floor with him🥹 will for sure be using her again!”
About: I have my own love for animals for a while, caring for animals and understanding their different behaviors, I have taken care of horse and donkeys from rehabilitation, I’ve had my cat, Boots, for 4 years, so I’ve learned how to read cat behavior and understand that cats can be more sensitive and harder to read than dogs. I’m patient, attentive, and always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I already care for my own cat, Boots, every day. I make time for feeding, cleaning, playtime, and giving pets attention so they feel comfortable and cared for. I care for pets by ensuring they are safe and comfortable. I adhere to the routine that the owner provides. While I am in a client’s home, I respect their space. I make certain the pets are in a tidy environment. I observe the pets carefully to understand their behavior and needs. This allows me to provide a safe and secure environment.

Ethan went above and beyond to care for our 2 dogs when a medical incident occurred. Their communication was consistent and frequent throughout our entire vacation. We would happily book with them again and feel like our dogs were safe and loved in their care!
We had a last minute weekend trip come up and Jess stepped up as always to take great care of our little man. She even interrupted her Friday evening work schedule to come over during the time we requested and make sure he was taken care of and settled in for the night. Thank you so much, Jess.

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
