“Brie is a very experienced, conscientious and mindful pet sitter. Brie stayed in our home while we were away. She left our home and pets in tip-top shape. She had our pets' needs as her priority. One of our cats starting showing signs of diabetes a couple weeks before our trip that we were monitoring to reoprt back to the vet, but she was able to pinpoint other signs we weren't aware of so we really appreciated the extra medical attention. Brie also sent photos every day of our pets so we were assured of their comfort and happiness. That little extra goes a long way when you are out of town. This fall we have a longer trip planned, and we will absolutely book Brie again. She is Top-Notch!!”


“Jeanette has been taking care of my cat for more than two weeks, she visits my cat everyday, when I am back from vocation, my cat looks very happy and healthy! I am very pleased with the care, Jeanette is a great pet sitter!”


“Landon was wonderful with our cats! On his first visit, he went out of his way to spend extra time with them and made sure they were well cared for. He cleaned the litter box daily and was even kind enough to take out the trash. We’ll definitely be using Landon again!”


“We were extremely happy with the care Amanda provided for our three cats, one of which required an insulin injection twice a day. It was rather short notice on our part due to a sitter canceling. Amanda did everything we asked, and then some — and provided photos and reports after each visit, which added to our peace of mind. I suspect she is an animal whisperer because our very shy girl cat made several appearances, which is rare. Thank you Amanda!”


“Kinzley we can’t thank you enough for your help with all our fur babies on our wedding day. I was able enjoy the day knowing they were in good hands. Will definitely reach out for future visits if needed. You’re the best!!”

I am also comfortable with medications if necessary! I am a travel agent that works from home. My schedule is extremely flexible! I am very comfortable with whatever your pet needs whether it’s ones who require constant attention & playing for an hour, or ones who prefer to have their own space. Whatever your pet needs I am happy to provide! My dog is spoiled to the max & I ensure your pet will receive the same treatment!

Please let me know if there is anything you need to accommodate your animals needs.

“Brittany was wonderful with Dixie, making sure she was using the litter box! She'd check for poops and pees, because Dixie's on medication for both issues. She would contact me regularly with texts and pictures! I could see Dixie playing with the laser red dot and other toys! When I arrived home, it was clear that Dixie had been well taken care of! Brittany is a professional! I would recommend Brittany! And I'd hire her again! Thank you, Lynne”


About: I have taken care of my brothers dog who is 8 years old (Rottweiler/Lab 70lbs) for almost three years now. And once in a while I watch over my sisters dog who is a 2 year old American bulldog. I’ve taught my my brothers Rottweiler how to stay, sit. He is a very needy dog but I’ve learned to be patient. I taught my sister puppy to sit, give me his paw and leave it. Doggies can be so energetic but that’s the fun part. I’m currently working overnights (10pm/6am). And my mornings/ evenings are pretty flexible. The only days I wouldn’t be able to be free is on Tuesdays evening. At my apartment building we have a fenced yard made for pets if needed. Otherwise my apartment is pet free and your pet is safe. I can also watch them at your place if needed.

About: I love taking care of any dog, I am very flexible with any type of dog! lazy? energetic? no worries i can do it all! I was around dogs pretty much my whole life. Whether it was a dog of my own or a friend/family members, i always loved taking care of dogs. Dogs are truly someone’s best friend and i know if i wanted a sitter for my dog I would want someone who loves dogs, cares and nurtures for any dog whether it’s yours or not. If you’re looking for someone like that? get ahold of me. Dog walking is my specialty but I can also be a trustworthy person your dog can trust as well as the owner. Pet care for me anytime for dog sitting/walking i can do weekdays after 3pm. Weekends I am fully available. Overnights I can check by 5am Always stay calm and let them get comfortable with me before over stepping any boundaries. But i love to run around and play with dogs!

About: I have three golden retrievers ranging from one year to ten years old. I have about an acre where they enjoy to roam with an underground fence. I am in close contact with my vet clinic to stay on top of the care of my 9 pets (6 cats and 3 dogs). The goldens have different medications and diets I tend to. I allow the dogs into the mudroom inside my home for a cool place to lounge that they are free to come and go with a doggie door. Additionally, I have a large kennel in the garage and an extra large kennel outside with a roof. Working from home allows me to provide consistent, attentive care for pets. I start the day with feeding, give medications as needed, and a quick health check for each of our furry friends. Throughout the day, I take regular breaks to check on the pets and ensure everyone has fresh water and a cozy spot to relax. My flexible schedule means I can adjust feeding times and offer plenty of attention and care. Although boarding at my home might be easiest for my schedule, I am open to drop in visits and walks as I know it's nice to keep your pets at home when you are away with someone reliable to care for them. Safety is my top priority when caring for pets. In my home, I provide a secure environment with an acre of underground fenced space for dogs to roam freely. Inside, pets have access to a mudroom with a doggie door, offering a safe, cool place to lounge. I also have a large kennel in the garage and an extra-large kennel outside with a roof if needed. With my work-from-home schedule, I’m available throughout the day to monitor and care for pets. I am flexible with options when it comes to boarding your animal at home. Send me a message and I can help accommodate you and your pet(s) needs.

Jennifer T.
“Hello, my name is Eufraisa Tecuapetla. My sister Jennifer has helped me over the last three years in taking care of my boy Chapo. Chapo is a Rottweiler mixed with Lab and he can be a handful. But Jennifer has done a great job in keeping me stress free by making sure he is well fed, well groomed, safe and loved. She is a very generous and life saver, there was a couple of times where I had to come him extremely late from work but she kept Chapo in her home safe until I could be with him. Another time would be when my dog had a terrible ear infection and she took the time to take him to the vet and made sure he could get better. I would highly recommend her with taking care of your little fur baby! Thanks!”


Gabriella R.
“WOW! AMAZING! BEST DOG WATCHER AROUND! Ella treated our dog and cat like her own. She watched our animals while we were out of town for 2 weeks our dog was exhausted by all the fun she had while Ella was watching her. Ella provided updates on how the animals were doing.
