“Vicki was fantastic. I needed last-minute cat-sitting for a funeral, and Vicki was able to assure me that Wedge would be taken care of. Wedge usually hates strangers, but he loved Vicki the instant she stepped through the door.”


“Bonnie was great with our two black cats! She could even tell them apart! Made sure they ate, had some play time, and some cuddles during her drop ins. Lots of pics and notes about each visit. Highly recommend!”


“Mikayla is amazing! She watched our cat for numerous days while we were gone on vacation. Our typically very timid cat loved her! Mikayla would spend extra time with him and was thorough with his cares. She also left our home very clean! We appreciated her attention to detail, communication skills, and professionalism. We would definitely book Mikayla again!”


“Rachel is very kind and caring, and my cat liked her- big win! She was great with our cat and had good notes after the visits. Will be booking her again in the future, thank you!”


“Elyse was incredible throughout her time with our cat and went above and beyond our expectations. Will definitely recommend to anyone who needs to check in on a pet while you are gone or out of town!”


“Em did such a great job taking care of our Norman. He loved visiting with her and she did an awesome job with sending us daily updates and pictures. Will definitely go with her again!”


“My cat and I couldn’t have had a more positive experience with Jennifer! Albert seemed to have really enjoyed his stay. I will definitely be using her services in the future! I’m sure if Albert had a say he would choose her too!”


“Morgana is amazing! I was worried about leaving our old cat Buddy to go on vacation because he is used to having me and my husband home all of the time. Morgana was able to spend most of her time with Buddy and gave him so much love and attention! She brushed, petted and hung out with him a lot so after our first day of being gone I was able to thoroughly enjoy our vacation without worrying about Buddy! The house also looked great when we got back home. I highly recommend Morgana, she is wonderful and really cares about animals. 😺❤️”


“Kristy was AMAZING with our cat, under rather complicated circumstances. She was super responsive and left us great feedback about how our kitty was doing at each visit. Highly recommend!!”


“Kirsten was absolutely wonderful to have as our cat sitter while we were away! She sent pictures at ever drop in visit and gave little updates, making our vacation all the more relaxing knowing our little furr baby was in good care. Kirsten goes the extra mile to make sure she's doing everything she can to take care of your pet by asking questions. She was wonderful to work with!”


About: Dogs are a great addition to a family but when you need to go somewhere or put them up it can become extremely difficult to find an affordable place and know ther safe at the same time...... Well I'm hear to help! I love all size dog and have had many years with taking care of and helping train them. Pet care is an important part of my daily routine. Each morning, I start by feeding my pets and making sure they have fresh water. I also take time to clean up after them, whether that’s scooping litter or taking them outside. Throughout the day, I make sure they get attention, playtime, and exercise, depending on their needs. On a weekly basis, I set aside time for grooming tasks like brushing, nail trimming, or giving them a bath if needed. Taking care of my pets is something I genuinely enjoy—it brings structure to my day and helps me stay grounded. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine. I start by learning about each pet’s specific needs, including their feeding schedule, exercise routine, medication (if any), and temperament. I make sure they have clean water at all times, follow feeding instructions carefully, and give them plenty of attention and affection. In a client’s home, I maintain their routines as closely as possible to reduce stress—whether that means sticking to specific walk times, play sessions, or how they like their food prepared. I also keep their environment clean, ensure their bedding and toys are fresh, and monitor their behavior for any signs of illness or stress. If I’m providing services like dog walking or drop-in visits, I make sure they get enough exercise and companionship. Communication is key, so I send updates and photos to reassure clients that their pets are safe and happy while they’re away.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was little from my families and my friends pets. I have experience in bathing, playing, and walking with different types of dogs. I am currently working part-time as well as going to school and looking to fill in the extra time in my schedule to help out. I can easily care for pets in their own home where they are comfortable and making sure that they get what they need while walking them if needed/wanted.

About: Hello! My name is Lindsey :) I grew up on a farm in Wisconsin where I helped care for all sorts of animals. Growing up we always had dogs and cats. I have always been very passionate about animals :) During my years with animals, I have experience with giving mediations, injections, and specialty diets. Outside of caring my two fur babies (Kane - lab German Shepard mix, and Aspen- golden retriever mix), I work full time as a nurse. I enjoy taking my dogs on walks, playing ball, and snuggling up on the couch. As you are away from your fur babies, I can assure you they will be in the best possible care. I understand our animals are more than just “pets”, they are family :) I work full time Monday-Friday 8-430. I am free most weekends and do have flexibility in my day to leave and go back to work when needed. Weekends and week nights are the most optimal time for me help you with your fur babies, however, I can be flexible :) I have a completely fenced in back yard and a dog crate for your dog if needed. I also am able to take your dog on walks if needed or do drop in visits to play. I do have 2 dogs that are very friendly, however, if your dog needs to be away from other animals I do have the space to keep our animals separate as well ( I have a lot of experience with this as my parents dog does not like other animals)

Beyond her amazing skills with animals, she is just a wonderful person. Her kindness and positivity brighten every room she enters.
