About: Animals have always held a special place in my heart! I have years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and other pets for friends, family, and neighbors, and I was lucky enough to have a beloved dog of my own for nine wonderful years. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routines, and needs. Whether your furry friend is full of energy and ready for adventure, a little shy and in need of patience, or happiest curled up beside someone for cuddles, I'm happy to give them the care and attention that makes them feel comfortable and loved. I'm experienced with daily pet care, including feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and following special care instructions. I'm especially patient with nervous or timid animals and believe in letting them build trust at their own pace. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else's care, and I don't take that responsibility lightly. I'll treat your pets like family, follow your instructions carefully, and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy your time away knowing they're in loving hands! I have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your furry family members! Whether your pet needs companionship throughout the day, regular walks, drop-in visits, or overnight care, I'm happy to accommodate their routine. I understand how important it is for pets to feel comfortable, loved, and secure while their families are away, and I'm committed to giving them the attention they deserve. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities! I take the time to learn each pet's individual needs and routines, from feeding schedules and fresh water to walks, playtime, medications, and any special care instructions. I'm attentive to the little details and always respectful of your home and your pet's environment. Of course, there will also be plenty of affection, attention, and cuddles! My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while giving you peace of mind.

“Hailey was so great! Took such great care of my cat while I was away, couldn’t ask for better help. Very responsive and flexible with schedule that needed changing a few times. She sent pictures every drop-in and kept me updated! Definitely recommend Hailey to watch after your pets also.”

About: I'm the person asking if I can pet your animals in public. Love a good walk and will play outside with your pet or snuggle on THe couch if desired,! My workday usually starts at about 9am and I am home sometime between 3-4pm My weekends are usually wide open for your pet care needs Pets can roam free in my home as long as behaved and appropriate. I feed my cats twice daily so I can accommodate feeding routines and have a fenced in yard for play

About: I have a 1.5 year old golden retriever that I have single-handedly raised. I grew up with family dogs, cats, and farm animals. I have a Bachelors of Science degree in Animal Science. I interact with dairy farmers for my full time career and get to bring my dog along with me! I am a full-time employee that is 50% remote and 50% on farms. I have more flexibility when working remotely to walk, feed, and check on your furry friends. I currently make sure my pup gets at least 2 walks a day. On the weekends, I can cater to whatever schedule you need. I understand inviting a stranger into your home and your dog’s safe space can be overwhelming. I want to mitigate that as much as possible by not being a complete stranger and build trust with you as the owner and with your pups. I will try my hardest to make sure your dog feels safe, cared for, and protected while under my care.

About: I have a lifetime of hands-on experience caring for pets, having owned and nurtured dogs, cats, and cockatiels throughout my life. I understand that every animal has its own personality, routines, and needs, and I take pride in providing attentive, compassionate care tailored to each pet. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, administering basic care, or simply offering companionship and reassurance, I treat every pet as if they were my own. My reliability, patience, and genuine love of animals help pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. Because pet sitting is my primary focus, I offer a flexible schedule and reliable availability. I can adapt to your pet's routine and provide the attentive, personalized care that gives both pets and owners peace of mind. I provide pet care in the comfort and familiarity of your pet's own home, helping minimize stress and maintain their regular routine while you're away. While I do not offer overnight stays, I can accommodate multiple visits throughout the day, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, weekends, and holidays when available. Whether your pet needs feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, or basic care, I am committed to providing reliable, attentive service and plenty of love and attention during every visit.

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was old enough to know what a pet was, whether it’s my own, a neighbor’s, or a friend/family member’s. I love animals, and am considering going into vet work! I have experience with both puppies/kittens and seniors as well :). I can walk, feed, give meds, and do anything you need! I’m a full-time student during the week, but I will always have time to drop-in, or stay overnight. I’m very flexible with my scheduling, so I will happily do whatever you and your pet need! While I can’t offer boarding at my home because I have four roommates, I will care for pets in every way possible no matter what! I know some nice parks for walks, and I’m also happy to chill if they’re a homebody! Again, entirely up to you and your pets needs :)

“Sammi took great care of our two kitties and send great photos! Even our extremely anxious cat was able to feel comfortable and come out to play :)”

Clare L.

“I can’t recommend Lenys enough! She took such great care of my floof while I was away, making sure she was well-fed, comfortable, and had plenty of company. I loved receiving daily updates and adorable photos, which really gave me peace of mind. She even went above and beyond by suggesting and installing a new cat fountain to keep my cat hydrated and happy. On top of that, she made sure any packages delivered during my trip were safely brought in and secured. Truly thoughtful, reliable, and caring, she'll get the job done and more! Definitely booking her again!”

“Phillip is a fantastic house and cat sitter. As a cat parent himself, he understands their needs and genuinely cares that your pet is healthy and happy while you’re away. He sent us regular updates with pictures, and I could tell our cat Hugo felt comfortable with him right away. Thank you for taking such good care of him and the outside kitty, and for treating our home with respect as well!”

“Anik was an amazing cat sitter! Excellent communication, genuine care, and incredible attention to detail throughout the entire stay. The cats received so much love and attention. Anik went above and beyond, including taking the time to train French Fry to run on the wheel! That extra effort and patience really showed how much Anik cared about making the cats happy and comfortable. We would definitely book with Anik for future care.”
