About: I have taken care of my own dogs since I was born! I love dogs and would do anything for the pets that I am in charge for. I am working full time right now from home! I never have to leave the house for work which is really great and can spend more time with the dogs I will spend as much time with your dog/dogs as I can! I will come over and play with your dogs in and outside or I will take them to the park.
“Rob watched our two pets on a long weekend and was great. We love a lot of communication - and he kept us posted and sent us many pictures. Very professional and our pets loved him. We would definitely recommend!”

“From the first time I met with Lisa for our meet and greet, we knew our dog would be in good hands. She was so sweet with our dog. She has great communication skills and we were not worried. She took him on walks and cuddled with him. We will definitely use her again and highly recommend her.”
“Michaela was wonderful to work with. She watched my dog and my parent’s dog for a couple hours because we didn’t want to leave them unattended. She sent adorable photos of snuggles and play time with the pups. She was great to communicate with and seemed to be very comfortable around the pups right away. Would highly recommend!”
About: I was always had furry siblings but have graduated to a cat mama. I enjoy creating personal heavens for our companions. Reliable, punctual and kind. I have a full-time job that pays the bills but I am looking for ways to feed my soul. Overnights are great as well as drop ins. I would prefer to host at client's homes as my current home does not allow dogs. Willing to board or take cats overnight. Let's make it a sleepover!
“Miranda was great! Zeus loved her!”
About: I’ve had pets my whole life ranging from fish, amphibians, rodents, birds, cats, and dogs. I love connecting with animals and giving them all the love they deserve! I also am a former vet assistant (I now work at a vet lab) so I have experience with pets of all ages, temperaments, and health statuses. My priority is the pets’ safety and comfort, and will work with them to ensure we have a foundation of trust. I also can work enrichment into my visits to get their minds more stimulated or just give them a 15 minute belly rub if that’s more up their alley. I’ve also trained many of my pets so I can help introduce basic commands to puppies or reinforce commands and manners from older pets. I’m available pretty much every day for the summer. Once mid-August comes around, I’ll be available Sunday-Tuesday at all times and Wednesday-Saturday from 9-11 AM I can come in let the pets out, clean up messes from them, feed/water, play enrichment games or work on training, and give them lots of love!

“Cheyenne has dog sat for us a few times and each time she was timely and a good communicator. We’d definitely recommend and continue to book her!”
About: Hi, I’m AmberRae! I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes. I’ve grown up with all types of pets from dogs to cats, rabbits and snakes, I even had 2 rats and now a cat again. I can help reinforce basic training like sit, stay, and leash walking. I have a sweet black cat of my own, so I understand how much your pets mean to you. I’ll treat them like family whether they need playtime, cuddles, or calm, reliable care. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine! I’m already caring for my own cat every day, and I’ve always made time for walks, feeding, play, and cuddles when watching dogs or other pets. I’m organized, flexible, and genuinely enjoy making animals feel safe and loved so fitting pet care into my schedule feels like second nature. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort come first. I follow any routines or instructions you provide to keep things familiar and stress free. I always make sure pets have clean spaces, fresh water, and plenty of love and attention. I keep a calm, respectful environment and never force interactions especially with shy or anxious pets. Trust means everything to me, and I treat every home and animal with care, just like my own.
“Twinkie enjoyed every minute. Thank you for being attentive and keeping him happy”

There’s plenty of room for running and playing, as well as safe areas in the home to keep the babies out of trouble!

“I had the pleasure of having Amber Rae care for my two cats and two dogs during a week-long overnight pet sitting stay, and I couldn’t be more impressed with the service she provided. From start to finish, Amari was reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring. One of my pets needed medication, and she administered it with ease and responsibility. She kept me updated daily with photos and messages, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. Amari communicated clearly, respected my home, and treated my animals like her own. Her sweet nature and professionalism made it clear they were in safe, loving hands. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone in need of a dependable and compassionate pet sitter!”

Ashley H.
“I have known Ash for many years. Ash is the most trustworthy, reliable, and caring person when it comes to animals of all kinds (and humans). At the most, Ash has cared for my 6 cats (1 needing medicine), 1 rabbit and 1 dog all at once and has done so many times. Ash has even cared for fish (feeding, cleaning tanks). Ash has a heart of gold and takes tremendous care with all animals. I highly recommend her/they/them.”
Victoria A.
“Tori is an amazing person. I have known her personally for many years but she started taking care of my fur babies about two years ago. They love her. I have a very skittish dog that will not warm up to anyone and Tori can get him to go outside for her, snuggle with her, etc. She is very loving, LOVES animals and will make sure your babies are taken care of. I know my animals can cause messes (I have 4 of them) and I always come back to my house clean and no sign of any messes (which I know she is covering for them). :) I would highly recommend Tori to anyone looking for a pet sitter. She will take care of them as if they are her own.”
