15. Lauren R.
About: I’m a passionate pet lover with extensive experience taking care of my own pets. Our family includes dogs of various breeds and needs. A Pitbull, a Labraheeler with special needs, two Shih Tzu puppies, and a senior Russian Blue cat. I have cared for ferrets & rats as well. This experience has honed my skills in handling pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I work part-time at a local gym in the evenings with some weekends. I am available for bookings. Any care needed outside my offerings can be reviewed on a case by case basis. Overnight: I can provide overnight weekend care in your home, ensuring your pet feels safe and comfortable. I ensure a safe and comfortable space for all pets in my care. Cleaning up after messy eaters, and water droolers and taking precautions with escape artists.


16. Meg G.
About: As a veterinary assistant, I am very familiar with interacting with and walking dogs of all breeds and sizes. I have had a pet dog of my own for most my life, and have been sitting neighbors’ and friends’ pets since I was a teenager. Being around animals is therapy for me, so I would love to meet and care for your fur family. I am striving to make pet care my full time career, so I am available all sorts of hours throughout the week to walk and visit your pets. My cats do roam throughout the house and are fed twice a day. When my dog was still living she loved two walks a day.


17. Jackie E.

“Jackie took wonderful care of our two dogs and cat while we were gone for a long vacation. The house was cleaned when we came back home. She communicated about how everyone was doing throughout our trip. I highly, highly recommend her!!”


18. Larry M.

“Larry is a perfect dog & house sitter! While we were on vacation for 8 days/7 nights, he stayed at our home and took very good care of everything. The dogs were happy, the house was clean, mail & packages (a lot of them!) were brought inside, and he kept me connected along the way with daily texts & pics. He is a keeper, will be using his services again!”


19. Katherine P.

“Katie did a great job caring for our pups and home while we were traveling! I got regular updates that they were eating, getting outside time and just generally getting the attention they deserve and the house was kept clean. I would recommend her to anyone! It’s hard to enjoy traveling if you have to worry about how your pets are doing at home but I quickly felt comfortable with her taking care of them and it made my trip so much better.”


20. Arianna R.

“Arianna stayed with our dog over Thanksgiving weekend. She was great at updating us and giving Casper his medications and sticking with his schedule. Highly recommend her for all your pet needs 😊”
