“Isabella is very kind and professional. She sent pictures and videos while I was gone and was open to calling when my dog felt sad (it was our first time being gone so long). If you’re looking for someone who you can feel safe entrusting with your pets’ while you’re away, I highly recommend Isabella.”
“Victoria was so quick to respond to a needed last minute booking and was amazing with our 1 year old Dane. He had so much fun with her! Definitely recommend!”

About: I have house-sit and drop-in experience. I can do drop-ins and/or stay the night. I have taken care of pets up to a week at a time. Stayed with a mix of cats and dogs or one or the other. I have experience with dogs of smaller or larger breeds. I can stay overnight, do drop-ins, and take dogs on walks at any point of the week. I have open availability and can make sure I adhere to your normal pet care schedule. I usually ask what the client’s schedule for feeding their pets is and how frequently they take their dogs out to use the restroom. If they have set schedules then I will always go by that and if they don’t, I go based off my own experience. Playtime is so important for active pets, so doing that is so important to me. I also ask if they would like for the dogs to go out on walks. I will take them out on walks, depending on if the client is comfortable with their dog going out.
“I'm very happy with how my two dogs were cared for. One has a persistent problem with one of his ears, and she was very consistent with looking after it and giving him his medication when needed. Probably more consistent than I am normally. Usually by the time I get home his infection has gotten worse and requires a lot of attention to get it back under control. But this time he was his usual self when we got home!”
“Montrez was great! He picked up poop and also vacuumed and followed all care instructions.”
“Lizzy was great with peanut and provided helpful updates to let me know that he is okay. She was very helpful in assuaging my fears about my dog staying home.”
“Crystal did a wonderful job taking care of our cat! She sent many photos and detailed updates. We will definitely book with her the next time we need a sitter.”
“Nikki was very nice. I enjoyed talking to her. She seems to know a lot about cats. Looking forward to her staying with my cat River.”
“Huge help when I needed last minute care. Did a wonderful job!”
“Courtney was great for cat sitting! She sent photos each day and a quick text to let me know how it went, which I greatly appreciated and gave me a lot of peace of mind. My cat seems relaxed and happy when I got home. Can’t wait to have Courtney come back for Labor Day!”
About: I am dedicated to delivering exceptional pet care. I understand that every pet is unique so I’ll work with you to create a customized care plan for your fur baby. I work part time right now so I’m usually available for morning and mid day walks. I can always work with your schedule as well. I treat all fur babies the same as I do my own. I like to engage in playtime, go on walks and even teach some new tricks.
“Sophie was fantastic! She really cared about my cat and went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable while I was away. She even offered to take him on walks since he loves going outside. I felt totally at ease knowing he was in such good hands, and I can tell my cat liked her too! Highly recommend!”

About: I have been a pet owner my whole life and love all animals! I also have been a pet caretaker on the side for many years for my neighbors and enjoy taking care of people’s pets while their away! I am a public school teacher and would love to take care of your fur babies! I have a flexible schedule since I’m off all holidays and summer. I have a fenced in yard as well as a screened in patio with a doggy door. My dogs enjoys playing in the yard and we love hanging outside with them. My dogs stay inside and are a big part of our family. We take them for walks in the adjoining neighborhood since they have a sidewalk. I live in a small one street neighborhood where all our neighbors are very close and look out of each other.
About: I have a deep love for dogs and years of hands-on experience caring for pups of all ages, from playful puppies to wise seniors. I have so much compassion in my approach to dogs who are grieving the loss of a sibling or companion. I understand the emotional needs of lonely dogs and provide gentle, attentive care to help them feel safe, comforted, and loved. Whether it’s quiet companionship, extra cuddles, or keeping their routine consistent, I’m here to support their healing with patience and heart. I’m a full time student during the fall and spring, but have an extremely flexible schedule and will be free all summer. During the fall, I’ll still be free to care for your pups! I have a fenced in backyard, and two friendly and playful dogs. They are loved deeply and are only in a kennel when I’m out of the house.
“Kaitlyn was our sweet angel who cared for our fur babies. We don’t leave them often so Maggie can be difficult, but she was so sweet and handled her with genuine care and love. We will definitely be asking her again to come over in the future. Thank you Kaitlyn”
“So happy to have found Kaitlyn!! She took great care of my cats and was very attentive to my instructions on feeding them. She is super sweet and won over the hearts of my extremely judgmental cats quickly!! Would definitely recommend her to anyone and will be booking again in the future.”
About: I have been pet sitting since I was 16 years old, and I have loved and cared for many dogs. I have a mini Aussie currently who is 1.5 years old and a mini schnauzer who is 8 months old. I give lots of cuddles, and have taught them how to sit, lay, shake, spin, stay, and more! They can play but they can also chill, and get along well with other pups! I have an open schedule currently because I am a teacher, so summer is clear for me! I would love to care for your pup as much as possible. I have a large fenced in backyard, doggy door, and plenty of room for your dog to roam inside the house or outdoors. I can let them out if they don’t know how to use the doggy door!

Moreover, Faith is highly trustworthy and dependable. She always arrived on time and communicated promptly if there were any questions or concerns.
