“Bree was very calm and kind with my skittish and frightened dog, Levi. As a pet parent, I really hate to leave my dogs behind, but Bree had me covered. Levi was asking for attention and getting loves this morning!”


“Our first time having Nancy stay with our 3 dogs was a very good experience! One of our dogs is a 5 month old rambunctious Siberian Husky and we were sure he would test Nancy's abilities. Nancy rose to the challenge and handled everyone beautifully and seems to have natural abilities with dogs. We will definitely be calling on Nancy again to care for our boys. Highly recommend Nancy. Thank you Nancy. ❤️?”


“Krystal went above and beyond in every way caring for our two cats as well as our home on a recent long trip. I cannot recommend her enough if you want to feel like your furry friends are being cared for as if by yourself! Additionally, her updates and communication during each visit were excellent and always cheered me up.”


“Excellent communication, very attentive to my 2 pups. I was also very stressed leaving them alone, but she sent plenty of photos and videos to ease the worry and made sure everything was taken care of. She went above and beyond to make sure the visit went smoothly and saw to it that my dogs were fed and above all, happy. My dogs and I are satisfied with the care she provided and I would absolutely ask her to watch them again.”



“I could not be happier with all the help and care Nicole provided!! I was super worried about leaving my two alone, but Nicole was already going above and beyond to make sure both me and my dogs were comfortable even before the set date! She provided excellent care, had quick responses, and was super sweet to my pups! She made sure that they were not only given the care needed but inquired about what she could do to keep them calm! I will be asking for her help again in the future and will recommend anyone looking for 100/10 animal care! Thank you, Nicole!!”


“If you need someone who is dependable and thorough, Sarah is definitely the pet sitter for you! We have had her do drop in visits twice a day. Our pets love her. She actively plays with them, makes sure they are fed, fresh water and potty breaks. We trust her in our home and with our pets.”



About: Growing up, my family always had a dog. We have owned all different kinds from a Chinese Shar-Pei to a Mastiff to a Shih Tzu. After I finished school at Brigham Young University in Idaho for Health Science I missed having a furry friend so I got my own. One turned into 3 over the last decade and they are each spoiled. Now that I am marrieds and we have a set up for our dogs to be fairly self-reliant I would love to aliveiate that stressful feeling for others being away from their animals while getting the joy of playing with some sweet pups. Currently, I work from home so as long as there is Internet, I can be home with dogs or cats 24 hours a day. However, if I am away from my own home and animals for more than two days, I will need to leave briefly to ensure my dogs have water and food in there automatic feeders. At my home, I do have a fenced yard and a dedicated space for additional animals. With that additional space, I am able to set up a place for them to sleep away from my animals in the home.

“Richard is always on time, dependable, kind and patient. It’s such a relief knowing he’s not only got a new friend, but one who watches out for him and truly cares about him. You can tell immediately when you meet a genuine lover of animals, and that is Richard.”


“My cat Mimi does not always welcome new people, but she loves Madison! Accepted her right away. Madison visited at the agreed-upon times and took good care of Mimi while I was away. Recommended!”


“I am very glad we booked Tanaisa to check in on our cats while we were out of town. She was dependable, communicative, and attentive. You can tell she is an animal lover based in the feedback and photos she provided me with daily. We will absolutely book with her again next time we need help with our pets.”


“Always does a great job and is super reliable with administering her medication. Chai (my cat), is very skittish and yet enjoys her company! Happy to find a reliable person to watch her when I'm away :)”


About: I've cared for four elderly dogs in those years. My mom's dog with kidney failure and special food requirements. Grandmother's dog with paralyzed back legs needing to be washed now and then when she had potty accidents on herself. My neighbors two dogs one old and one round. The older one was a fragile deer head chihuahua having no teeth. I cut wet food up small enough so she could eat and put her carefully into a sweater to take her potty out in the cold weather. The younger was another chihuahua with bladder problems kept peeing every two hours all over. Currently I'm open from whenever and can come stay with pets during daylight hours if need be.im available all days of the week. I'm open to discussing needed times and hours for care. I care for my pets in cages or rv environment. Currently those pets are staying in my mom's place as where I'm living currently doesn't allow pets. I clean up messes when made and make sure to prevent disasters by cleaning up potential hazards.

About: I have had animals my entire life. This includes goats, horse, pigs, geese, dogs and cats. I was the primary caretaker of all the previous animals. Was also a breeder of Great Pyrenees and Chihuahuas. I have previously worked as a veterinary technician. I Genuinely care for all types of animals and will care your furbabies with love. I work from home so your furbaby will rarely be left alone. My rural home is quiet with a fenced area so they have room to run. I have a fenced yard and two senior dogs that would love to keep your furbabies company. Both of my poochies are small and easygoing.

About: I've always had a soft spot for animals since I can remember. I now have the privilege to be a vet tech assistant as my job, and it has been the most rewarding thing ever. In the 2.5 years that I have been doing this, I have learned so much and has elevated my confidence in animal care. I'm more than confident to medicate pets (including injections, subcutaneous fluids, transdermals, ect) and offer Fear Free adjacent handling and care. I'm always happy to chat to see if we are compatible! I work full time out of town (45 min away) int he afternoon/evenings. I am normally off on Friday/Saturday. I can accommodate morning check ins on all other weekdays and evening check ins on Sundays. I like to think I'm very thorough with my care. Monitored outside time, crating as needed, following rules and directions as needed. I'm happy to accommodate any needs, directions and rules.

About: Hello! I grew up with chickens, ducks, and pigeons (along with my siblings!). I currently have 3 cats and they are my favorite part of every day. I absolutely adore cats and firmly believe in full bellies and clean litter boxes! I have raised two kittens, adopted an adult feral cat, have experience with hyperthyroid cats/medicating them 2x daily. I have also had a dog from puppy to adulthood. I love hiking with dogs, enjoy walking dogs around the neighborhood, playing fetch, and taking them swimming. And yes, I will absolutely take your dog for a 1-8 mile hike or walk if that's something you're interested in! I promise to take great care of your pets and send daily photos (you can opt out of photos). Thanks! My day-to-day varies. I am generally available in the mornings before 8am and in the evenings after 3-5pm on weekdays. Weekends are available and will absolutely work with advanced notice! I enjoy walking dogs and making sure they get quality exercise and attention. I took my dog on frequent walks, hiking, swimming, and to the park. I am a huge fan of hiking with dogs! I also love cats and frequently do drop-ins. Depending on the cat I sometimes bring a book and cuddle. I will give your cat(s) as much or as little attention as they seek. Just let me know what you're looking for and I'll try my best to help you and your family.

“Leslie was a perfect for us and our two cats. She took care of our indoor and outdoors cats exactly as we asked and sent lots of pictures to reassure us everything was being taken care of. She will be my first contact when we head out of town again. I highly recommend her service.”

About: I’ve had several dogs of different breeds in my family for years that I have spent lots of time taking care of and spending time with. I recently got a new puppy so I understand the importance of making sure they have proper exercise, and that they have little mess ups every now and then. My schedule is just 2 classes a day at our local high school, so I’m free most of the time. I personally spend a good amount of time exercising with my dogs, and would like to help the community do the same with their busier schedules! I have a good sized backyard that is fenced with plenty of room to play in. The yard is treated for bugs including ticks, so nothing to worry about! I have a very playful french bulldog to keep your pup some company and a senior dog that just likes to relax. No matter the service I’m pretty flexible, and reliable.

She sent us so many sweet pictures, which brought us so much peace and joy during our trip. It was clear how much our pups adored her—seeing them run back to her with wagging tails said it all. Lori isn’t just a pet sitter—she’s family now. We’re beyond grateful for her, and we wouldn’t trust anyone else with our fur babies. You’ll be lucky to have her in your pets’ lives!”


Gabrelle W.
“Gabby truly is the best. I highly recommend her to anyone who loves their dogs. I love how she cares so much about my four legged friend Moses. Gabby goes the extra mile to keep me informed on how Moses is doing after each walk. Moses is a rescue 3 yr old pit who requires a lot of attention, love and care for he is afraid of his own shadow at times. I would highly recommend Gabby highly to anyone who is looking for someone who is willing to assure your dogs safety, comfort and needs are met. ”


Linda X.
“Linda is communicative, reliable, and has plenty of experience with animals! She has taken care of my big, strong husky mix for me many times and my dog loves her.

Definitely recommend Linda for dog or cat care!”

Alexander R.
“Alexander and Liberty are so good with my two dogs. Constant love and attention and excitement to take them for a walk. Many times they would be so excited to take Diesel (yellow lab) for a walk they would often just walk around my cul-de-sac for a little one on one time with the dogs. I would also find Liberty cuddling with the dogs just giving some extra love and affection. Rarely do I find people that love dogs as much as I do but you can see it with their interaction with my pups.”


Taylor T.
“Taylor is a kind hearted person that has been around dogs her whole life and shares her love for animals. She has dogs of her own since she was young. Taylor has helped in rescue and raising of kittens, feral cats and having them spade, baby skunks, bunnies and has had some experiences being around the dog show rings. In the summers, Taylor helps helps her grandmother on her ranch with dogs and horses. She is a bright young lady with a great outlook on life.”
