“Maddie made me feel that my precious cat was going to be well-taken care of while we were away, and she did not disappoint. Prompt and courteous, I have already recommended her to a neighbor. I hope she will be able to allow me to travel without worry many more times in the future.”

“Emily was perfect! She was very trustworthy in our home with our fur babies! She updated us with lots of messages and even photos! I will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Grace is wonderful! She did amazing with our cat and took great care of our apartment. She provided fun visit reviews with cute pictures too! We’ve already booked her for more drop-in’s, so we highly recommend her to anyone. Thank you so much!”

“Alexis did a wonderful job communicating throughout the day. I loved receiving updates and pictures at every visit. Knowing Bruce was in such good hands made being away so much less stressful.”

“Melanie went out of her way to come meet Olivia and us before her time to dog sit. She was flexible, communicated very well and did an excellent job. This was our first time to use Rover and we are hooked! Thank you!”

“Julie took wonderful care of our 3 kitties, giving us such peace of mind while we were out of town. We knew they were in great hands, and Julie went above and beyond!! We’ll gratefully rebook with Julie anytime we have to go out of town in the future. Thank you so much Julie!!!”

“Duke was well taken care of by Aubrey and he got plenty of play time. Duke made up to Aubrey very quickly at the meet and greet which let me known he would be happy to spend time with her!”

“Jen is top quality dog care. She puts her heart and soul into your pet. Prezi loves her. I highly recommend Jen. I couldn't ask for a better person to take care of my baby girl. Thank you for being so good Jen”


“Emma and Timothy have watched my dogs two times now and I couldn’t ask for anyone better! My timid German shepherd warmed up to them quickly and my overly excited Shepard Pit mix loves them! Emma and Timothy communicate often and send the cutest pictures! I know my babies are in good hands when I book them.”

About: Ensure your pet feels safe and loved even when you're not home. My dedicated pet sitting services allow your furry friend to stay in the comfort of their own space. From regular dog walking to attentive care for your pets, I cater to their needs while you're out of town or just away for the day. With a focus on individual attention and affection, your pets will enjoy a stress-free experience. Book with me and give your pets the care they desereve! Pet care fits naturally into my routine, allowing me to give my full attention to each animal I look after. I visit clients’ pets before I start my work day and return directly afterward to ensure they stay on their regular schedule. On weekends — and on weekdays when I have extra time — I go beyond the basics by adding extra playtime, enrichment activities, or simply quality companionship for pets who value one-on-one attention. Whether they’re energetic explorers or calm cuddlers, I make sure each pet feels supported, stimulated, and loved every day their family is away. When caring for pets in their home, I make sure their routines and comfort come first. I provide fresh food and clean water, ensure they have proper potty breaks, and clean up any soiled areas to keep their space tidy and stress-free. Each visit includes 30 minutes to an hour of engagement — whether that’s active play, enrichment activities, or simply relaxed cuddle time depending on what the pet enjoys most. I also handle medication when needed, maintain clean litter boxes, and pay close attention to their overall well-being. My goal is to make every pet feel secure, comfortable, and loved while their family is away.
About: I love staying active and spending time outdoors. Your dog and I will have a great time on walks or runs together! And if you have a feline friend, I’m just as happy to relax and keep them company at home. I’m kind of a early morning person so I can take your pet out in the morning for their bathroom breaks walks on a nice afternoon I wake up at 5am to feed my cats breakfast Make sure they have their puzzles filled in the morning and night to keep them Occupied/busy. Clean their litter boxes every morning and before bed .
“Hannah helped us out on Christmas evening when we were going to be away from our house for 12 hrs. We so appreciated the extra mile Hannah went to come a week before Christmas to meet our dogs and speak with us personally so we would feel comfortable leaving our two greyhounds in her care for a bit. She communicate well and responded in a timely manner when we first were setting up the visit with her. We will definitely use Hannah again and absolutely recommend her services! Thanks again Hannah, you helped make our Christmas less stressful!”
About: I had a 100 lb mastiff all 8 years of his life on earth and trained him extensively. He walked well on a leash but even when he developed leash aggression later on in life and he pulled I had the strength to contain him. I'm very used to extra large breeds and love them dearly! I also potty trained and crate trained him as a puppy. I am a self-employed wedding photographer that works from home and only works seasonally so I'm very flexible! I have two kittens at home so caring at the client's home is ideal unless the dog is cat-friendly. :) I have a fenced in yard. Whether I am in my home or the client's home, I love walking with dogs and miss it so much since my dog died last June. It brings me joy to give dogs the exercise they need and stay healthy myself in the process!

About: I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember! I I’ve taken a vocational course for veterinary & I’ve have pets of my own! I’m also working towards becoming a groomer so this is something to get my foot in the door of giving myself even more experience than I already have! I am comfortable around all dogs and am willing to adapt and learn how to best care for your animal. When I come to take care of, play with, and walk your animal I will dedicate my time to loving them as if they were my own! I would love to be able to take them to the dog park where they can also interact with other animals while you're away! I have two cat of my own, both are short haired cat’s I have one boy and one girl! They’re very cuddly and playful whenever they want to be lol! I am currently working this as part time! But, I’m still available for drop ins or house sittings when needed! I am also flexible and can accept last minute bookings. When in your home, I would love to take your fur babies for walks, to dog parks, anything you already do with them to make them the most comfortable! I would also love to spend time with your cats, feed them, play with them, my cats especially love the laser toy/ any hanging string! I will respect your home, whatever rules or things you typically have or want followed will be respected! I’m more than happy to ask any questions if I don’t understand something so they’ll be no missed communication! I want to make you and your furry babies as happy and as satisfied as possible! I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm weekday’s and on weekends. Weekdays will typically be from 12pm-2:30, the times may change to longer hours depending on my job! Weekends: Saturday anytime throughout the day. Sunday: 4-10pm. I will take care of your pets based on your rules! If there’s a specific time you always feed your animal I will do the time asked for! When it comes to safety, safety is most important for me and your animal! I will keep your number in reach at ALL TIMES! If I notice the dogs getting aggressive i’ll try to calm the dog. If you have a fenced backyard i’ll make sure I watch your animal as they use the restroom or even just play around and keep an eye out for any signs of danger!

Madison did an amazing job taking care of our cats while we were out of town. She is kind, respectful, responsive and responsible! She sent pictures and updates and even brought in our packages. My cats were well taken care of and the litter box was obviously thoroughly cleaned each time.

Vanessa was amazing with Ellie! She made sure she had good walks and took time to play ball with her. Vanessa is very friendly, professional, and responsive. She took the time to meet her beforehand to make sure Ellie was comfortable. We enjoyed reading about Ellie’s time with Vanessa and loved seeing our fur baby in some pictures! This was our first time leaving her in the care of another in our home and Ellie seemed happier and more comfortable than boarding or being left with family members. Highly recommend!
