About: My pet sitting skills are pretty diverse as young as a 13 week old kitten to a puppy that was a couple weeks old- my parents got a Covid puppy, the sweetest dachshund with the loudest bark!!! I would watch him daily for about a year straight before I moved out! I’ve lived with cats for the last two years, as well as always being around them constantly. My best friend has two of her own. (My nieces) I’m currently working part time at a restaurant in my neighborhood that is only open Wednesday through Sunday. I’ve only been getting about 2 to 3 shifts a week and would obviously like to add some income. I thought what a better way to spend my free time working a part-time job that could also be fulfilling!!! I am very intentive and will follow instruction to a T. I know that leaving your baby with someone else can be stressful, but I am here to give you peace of mind, comfort, and genuine care.

“Kelley was great! Our house looked beautiful when we got home and our doggy was happy! She also sent me pictures every day of their adventures which was such a comfort! So good to see him acting normally while we were gone!”


“Giovanna did a great job watching my dogs over the weekend at my apartment. Both dogs loved her and she sent me pictures throughout the duration letting me know they were doing well. I will certainly utilize her services again. Thank you Gio! ”


About: Being a country girl, I have pet sit anything from dogs to indoor pot belly pigs to even donkeys. I've had dogs my entire life (4 of my own currently) and love to make your worry less while away. I love to send pictures and videos so you can see first hand how much love they are receiving when you are away. If you have animals besides cats and dogs, I would love to help with them as well. I work part time for a local retailer and prefer to be with animals so, I can almost always move my schedule around to accommodate except the time line that I need to get in the school line for my kids I only pet sit in your home as I have 5 very spoiled dogs on my own. I do bring my 4 old and 9 year old with me if I can to help play ball and show your pups (or fellow animals as much affection as they need while you are away.

About: I have one acre of land that is fenced in. I am in a quiet neighborhood with a pool and tons of dog toys. I have 3 small dogs and a 1 year old that loves doggies. I currently have 3 dogs that I take care of day and night. I have a doggie door and a screened in porch for some shade. I am very attentive of dogs body language. Having a baby around 3 dogs has made me extremely aware of there stress signals. I also love cuddling and playing with dogs.

“Sara is awesome! Our dogs are so excited to see her when she arrives. She has house sat for our 2 beagles a couple of times and we would love for her to sit for us in the future. We feel so comfortable knowing she is home taking care of our babies. She sends great updates and takes care of anything needed/asked, including our multitude of supplements we give our dogs.”


“We hired Heather to housesit and watch our two dogs for two nights. She was a dream to work with! She left my home how we left it; frankly I couldn’t even tell anyone was there. She was very respectful of my house rules & my dog care preferences. Heather was punctual, respectful and has great communication. Our pups clearly enjoyed her presence and also, they loved staying home and not going to a traditional boarding situation which was huge for us. We have a large breed #110 dog and a #6 dog which she handled both with ease. We look forward to booking her again in the future and would recommend her to anyone!”


“Couldn't ask for a better sitter! Mackenzie treated Groot like a prince. Even though he's 125 lbs it was no problem for her. She was very attentive and extra kind. Im going to look forward to the next time she can dog sit for us!”


“Carina is the best! She took grwat care of our house and our babies while we were away. She was also flexible with our schedules. Our dogs love her and can't wait to use her service again 🐾🏡❤️”


About: I am currently a temporary foster lead for a chihuahua named Daisy 🌼 with Dogs Matter. I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs big and small. 2022 my boyfriend and I rescued my first foster and we adopted him. He’s a black, long haired German shepherd named Twix💙. He was malnourished and very sick, and we nursed him back to health. I work part time with a flexible schedule. I can work mornings and or afternoons at my job and I am available Saturdays and Sundays. I am 24 and have been with dogs all of my life and have raised all kinds of different animals. I believe they deserve as much love as they give us.

“We appreciated her coming out to meet our dogs and us prior to accepting the booking. She was able to accommodate our dogs needs around her work schedule during the week. She cleaned up after herself and took out the trash along with piling dirty items in the laundry room.”


About: I don’t just take care of the family furry paw members. I watch over the whole house. I make sure everything is taken care of while they are away. They are my first priority and my last when I’m helping someone else out. I take care of them before leaving for work and visit them when I return from work. It also depends if I’m staying at the house or just making stops in between the days. I have a fenced yard with a patio that is separate from the grass area. I have a doggy door so they can go in and out if they know how to use one. If not they learn while I have them in my care. My fur babies love playing with other dogs. If I’m at the clients home, they get lots of love and attention. I make sure they get their playing time in multiple times a day before bed time. If it’s not to hot I do try to squeeze a walk in even if it’s a small one.

“I highly recommend Lucy for any dog sitting needs. She stayed at our house during our recent vacation and I came back to happy dogs and a clean house! She sent pictures, she kept me updated daily and reached out if she had any questions. We felt extremely comfortable with her in our home and appreciated that we could relax and enjoy our time off.”


About: As a long time pet owner, I’m experienced with puppy training, special care needs and older pets. I work with dogs of varying sizes, cats, birds, sugar gliders and bunnies. I’m a retired grandma and enjoy visiting with my grandchildren. I’m available at most times to fit your schedule and most importantly, your pets needs. I’ll come to your pet to help them feel most safe and comfortable. I am soft spoken, patient and gentle with pets. I have experience with highly anxious animals and I aim to help them feel relaxed and supported in all interactions.

About: I've been an animal lover all my life!! I cling to them, and they cling to me. I grew up with pets that were my responsibility and have continued to be a pet owner throughout my entire life. They are my comfort, and I've always felt a soul connection to animals. I'm the weirdo at gatherings in the floor loving on peoples' pets over visiting with people, no matter the time or place lol! Even though, I'm a mother to 5 beautiful boys, I still treat my pets like they are my children as well. I currently have 3 dogs, a blue heeler, Lucy; an American bulldog/lab mix who is my old chunky man, named Trey, and an elderly little Yorkie rescue, Livy. I also have a rescue cat that we took in when she was 4-6months old. She's 5 now, and the coolest cat ever. She has no fear of dogs, and she's an avid little hunter. Having had animals my whole life, I have had experience with dogs & cats in labor, giving dogs medication, and I even saved a chihuahua from parvo by administering her IV fluids myself. I've also given countless vaccines to our animals over the years. I have also encountered sicknesses in our pets over the years and I can recognize signs of distress and would be able to communicate issues with you if they were to arise. I am passionate about all animals, and I have a lot of respect for them as well. If you have a pet that takes time to come around, I will be patient and provide the space they need while also ensuring their comfort and safety. I am currently a stay-at-home mom to 5 boys, my youngest is almost 4 and the only one I have left with me during the school day. He is just like me and is animal obsessed. I'm recently separated from my husband, so picking the other kids up from school is a priority in my schedule. I do sometimes have help with my older boys from my parents, so given the specific job, I can make adjustments based on your preferences. For well-fare checks with potty breaks throughout the day, I have no problem making that work. I'm open to doing overnights or multiple day stays if needed. My pets are like family as I mentioned early. They go in the car with me to run errands, they snuggle with me, and I take them on walks to pick up the kids from school with me on occasion. I do scheduled feedings for them and keep water available at all times. Also, as I mentioned before, I have 5 kids, but I still maintain regular potty break schedule for them as well and they were all housebroken. I've had all my pets neutered or spayed. I also regularly give my dogs baths, and trim their nails, which I'll happily do for your pet if needed, if they are comfortable with that.

About: I went to college to be a Vet and although I ended up in sales I definitely learned the basics on how to take care of your pet. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and energy levels, from energetic puppies who need structure and training reinforcement to senior dogs who require a little extra patience and care. My background as a vet student also means you can trust me to be consistent, communicative, and professional. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine! 🐾 I’m pivoting from sales into marketing and, while job-hunting, I love spending my time caring for dogs. With a flexible schedule, I can give your pup all the walks, playtime, and snuggles they need. 💕 follow your pet’s routine to keep them happy and stress-free—feeding, walks, playtime, and snuggles included. 🐾 I’ll also keep things tidy and send photo updates so you always know how your pup is doing. 💕

About: I was lead kennel technician for 3 years. I maintained and watched over the care of dogs daily. I trained dogs to be the best they can behaviorally. I excel in bonding experiences with your beloved pets and treat them like my own! I also enjoy taking tons of cute pictures and sending them to their owners. I would like to watch after your fur friend! I’m currently a part time worker and willingly have more than enough time to spend with your pets. I’m currently available all week days and some weekends upon notice and availability. I make sure to keep up on any schedule you have set for your dog, from potty schedules to water/food and play time. I can kennel your pets if needed as well as take them on walks as needed. There will be constant updates on your pets as well as requested!

About: I have been around animals my entire life and love every single animal I come in contact with. I will treat every animal as if they were my own and give them all the love and care they deserve while you're away/busy. I have four dogs of my own as well as three cats and a whole lot of chickens! I promise you that your dogs and cats will be under amazing care and will have the best time possible whenever they are with me. Attention will never be neglected when your animal is with me and my daughter :) I have experience with all age ranges of dogs and cats as I have had my animals since they were puppies / kittens and have senior animals currently. I am a single mom so my daughter will have to come with me during visits / stays / walks but she has been around animals since she was 2 days old and loves all animals! I am currently staying home with my daughter until she starts school in the fall of 2026 so I have complete flexibility for your animals! I am very detail oriented when it comes to animals and their car. Whether you have a relaxed and laid back baby or a full on ball of energy you can trust that your babies will be well taken care of and loved just like they’re my own.

Cassidy T.
“Cassidy is truly one of a kind. I’ve always been able to count on her to care for my senior German Shepherd, Gracie—and trust me, Gracie doesn’t warm up to just anyone. She’s always been a bit skittish and selective, but with Cassidy, it was different from the very start. I’d even go as far as to say Gracie prefers her over me sometimes Cassidy spoils her that much! With that being said Cassidy doesn’t discriminate—whether it’s a cat or a dog, she will go above and beyond what’s asked of her to make sure your pets are well cared for. I’ve seen how Gracie jumps with excitement when she sees her, and I know any other pet would do the same. When Cassidy is looking after your pets, you can rest easy knowing they’re in the best hands, treated like family!! If you’re lucky enough to snag a spot on Cassidy’s schedule, don’t hesitate—your pets will love every minute. Thank you, Cassidy, for everything!”

“Laken is one of the best! She has helped me so much with my dogs and cats through a move. I wouldn’t have been able to sell my house if it weren’t for her boarding my cats through showings and the inbetween from house to house. She’s super kind and even taught me a few behavioral things about my Chihuahua. She’s very intuitive and observant and animals are her passion. Another thing I loved is that she has lower rates which makes service possible in this economy. She’s flexible and conversation is nice with her too. She’s a great person to know and will help with any animal needs. She has saved me last minute countless amount of times. If you want someone you can trust, choose Laken.”
