About: I have always had a strong passion for animals and have taken every opportunity to care for and support them. Over the years, I have provided reliable dog and cat sitting services, working with a variety of breeds and sizes. Growing up in a home that always included pets has given me a deep appreciation for animals and a natural ability to care for them with patience, attention, and love. I would love the opportunity to provide your furry companion with the love, care, and happiness they deserve. I have a very flexible schedule and am currently available at a variety of times. With clear communication regarding dates and times needed, I will be able to promptly confirm my availability and ensure I can meet your scheduling needs. Every animal is unique, and I tailor care routines to best fit each pet’s individual needs and schedule. I believe clear communication is key to creating the perfect care plan for your furry companion. I always prioritize dedicated playtime and, depending on the pet, provide walks and outdoor time to keep them happy and active. I am highly flexible and committed to meeting the specific needs of every animal in my care.

Chloe went above and beyond with her care of our sweet girl and home in our absence! While we missed our pup, we were in complete ease with the thoughtful and fun updates from Chloe that made our time away even more enjoyable! While taking such great care of pup, she also took such great care in keeping our home fresh for our return! We will absolutely ask Chloe for her services again soon!

This was our second time using Ken. He is so great and attentive with Chewy and tolerates all of our questions about how she’s doing which is very much appreciated. He is very understanding of her anxiety and general weirdness. It is such a blessing to be able to confidently leave her in his care and not have to be concerned about a single thing.

About: I am a licensed veterinary technician. I have about 7 years of professional experience in general practice, emergency/specialty medicine, alternative medicine and rehab. I am looking to aide to pet parents in need of a regular pet care giver outside the clinic setting - especially those pets that may need medications or extra care throughout the day! Hi! I’m a licensed veterinary technician and certified small animal massage therapist with over 10 years of experience in general practice, emergency/specialty medicine, and alternative care. I currently work in an integrative veterinary practice. Outside of the clinic, I run my own pet care service—perfect for animals who need medications, mobility support, or a compassionate, medically trained caregiver who truly understands their needs. I’m generally available Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays for full-day appointments. I can generally accommodate other days with advance notice—just reach out and let’s talk! As a Fear Free Certified licensed vet tech, I prioritize your pet’s emotional and physical well-being. I create a calm, low-stress environment tailored to their needs—whether that’s quiet companionship, playtime, or simply space to decompress. Safety and comfort always come first, and I follow all care instructions carefully to keep your pet happy, healthy, and stress-free.

Kelsey was so good with Moose. He has a lot of anxieties but he immediately was comfortable with her and her daughter Kinsley. Kelsey was great and sent us pictures and updates the whole time we were gone. We will definitely be using her again.

About: I have experience with senior dogs as I took care of my own senior dog while I was in high school, so I am aware of the unique love and care that they need and appreciate. I also love working with high energy dogs as my family dog back home Toby has unlimited energy for play, so I would love to help your dog get their fill while you’re away! I also now have a cat of my own (shout out James) and I absolutely love taking care of cats and their unique quirks! I would love to take care of your wonderful cat so they are comfortable and taken care of while you’re away from home! I am currently getting my master's in counseling, so I have plenty of time during the day outside of my few class times to make sure your pet is properly taken care for! I spoil my cat James! I have adjusted my balcony in my apartment to make sure he gets plenty of time to bird watch with me while I enjoy my morning coffee and book! Figuring out his unique personality and how to take care of him based on his needs was important, as he is very particular with the types of toys he likes! I also loved getting him a water fountain instead of a bowl to make sure James gets enough water! All that being said I want to make sure I spoil your dog or cat just as good as I care for my James!

About: I have taken care of dogs of all kinds just about all my life. My grandma takes care of dogs and I am always helping her out. I also have a job at The Woods Canine Resort and Spa where I tend to many dogs every day. I have a part-time job, so I have plenty of time in my schedule to take care of dogs. I am available during the week and weekends for boarding. I have a big open yard with plenty of room for your pets to run around and play. I also have room for a crate if needed. I want to make sure every dog is comfortable and given the best care with me.

Meghann is a star!! She was thorough, responsive, and so loving with our senior dog. Meghann sent photos throughout the stay, gave us updates in a timely manner, and was on the ball with every medication and task our pup needed. She left our home clean and orderly, and gave us final updates before leaving. 15/10 would book Meghann again!

I highly recommend Gucci’s daycare sitter to anyone looking for dependable, professional, and loving pet care. As someone with a very busy schedule balancing work and school, having a sitter I can trust gives me tremendous peace of mind. Her communication is excellent—she keeps me updated consistently and sends pictures of Gucci throughout the day, which reassures me that he is safe, happy, and well cared for. It is very clear that Gucci is comfortable in her care because he never shows signs of anxiety when he returns home. In fact, he comes home happy, relaxed, and pleasantly tired from having such an active and enjoyable day. She is professional, attentive, trustworthy, and provides exceptional care at a very affordable rate. I truly feel that Gucci is in great hands whenever he is with her. I am beyond grateful to have found someone who treats my dog with such care and attention. Highly recommended!

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life—both large and small, long-haired and short-haired, male and female—so I’m very comfortable with a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and care needs. My experience includes daily walks, feeding routines, bathing, basic grooming, and administering medication when needed. I also have experience with cats, including feeding, litter box care, playtime, and respecting different temperaments—from very social cats to more independent or shy ones. I understand that cats often need a calm, low-pressure approach and consistency in their routine. In addition, I have mild but comfortable experience caring for small caged animals such as hamsters, guinea pigs, and similar pets. I’m familiar with basic feeding, cleaning enclosures, and making sure their environment stays safe, clean, and consistent. I’ve also worked at a dog daycare and boarding facility, where I cared for multiple animals at once in a structured, high-energy environment. Outside of that, I’ve provided pet sitting for friends and family over the years, including in-home care where I followed existing routines and kept pets comfortable while their owners were away. My goal is always to treat every animal with patience and care, paying attention to their individual needs and making sure they feel safe, relaxed, and looked after while you’re gone. I work a weekday job, but I have a consistent and reliable availability for pet care. I am off work at 4 PM Monday through Wednesday and available for evening drop-ins, walks, or care visits after that time. On Thursdays, I am off work after 1 PM, giving me earlier afternoon availability as well as evening flexibility. I am fully available Friday through Sunday, including daytime visits, extended care, and overnight stays depending on your pet’s needs. I’m open to both recurring weekly schedules and one-time bookings, and I do my best to accommodate advance requests when possible. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, my priority is always safety, routine, and making sure animals feel as comfortable and secure as possible. I follow all feeding, walking, and medication instructions exactly as provided and pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and stress levels. In my own home, I have a cat and a dog, and any boarding or in-home care would be done with careful introductions and only when it’s a safe and appropriate fit for all animals involved. I keep a calm, structured environment and prioritize supervision, separation when needed, and respecting each pet’s comfort level. In a client’s home, I respect the space, keep things clean, and maintain the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel secure in their environment. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners know their pets are safe and doing well. I’m comfortable caring for dogs, cats, and small caged animals, and I always make sure litter boxes, enclosures, and feeding areas are kept clean, secure, and properly maintained. Safety is a top priority for me—I pay attention to doors, leashes, feeding instructions, and any behavioral notes so pets stay safe and routines stay consistent.

About: I have had pets my whole life practically. We currently have 2 dogs, 4 cats and 14 chickens with some more on the way! I’ve had rabbits, hamsters, a guinea pig, an iguana, bearded dragons, geckos, a blue tongue skunk and a ball python. I love MOST animals!! (No spiders or bugs) Animals make life so special and they deserve all the love and care!! I had to quit a pharmacy technician career to be home and available for my daughter who is still in treatment for leukemia so I’d love to take care of your fur babies!! I’m taking care of animals every day! There is never a time that I’m sitting down that I don’t have a dog or cat in my lap. If I’m not sitting, they’re following me around everywhere! And I tend to my chickens daily, collecting eggs, checking feed and water and giving treats! I have only sat for people in their home so far. I follow what instructions they leave and check in with them to let them know how things are going. I would want that reassurance so I do that for my clients.

Brandy far exceeded our expectations. From the meet and greet to the sit, she was so kind and considerate of our two senior pups and our home. She sent lots of updates, pictures and videos which put us at ease and allowed us to enjoy our time away knowing our girls were in good hands! We are so thankful for the love and attention she showed our girls!
