“Lana is the best of the best! She is super reliable and communicative! She went above and beyond to stick to our proposed schedule which required extended care and visits to our house, and our dog seemed very comfortable with her. Would love to work with Lana again!”

“My dog just went through a few stressful events that has made him very anxious around strangers but he was very comfortable with Joe. We did a meet and greet before booking he did not show signs of anxiousness; in fact he took to Joe immediately licking him on his face. Joe then watched him all day on back to back days over the weekend which went very well. My dog was relaxed all day and did not have any issues. Joe is very flexible, priced extremely reasonable and I look forward to using him again in the future.”

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life—I had my own dog for 10 years, and I now volunteer at a local animal shelter. Those experiences have taught me how to be patient, attentive, and tuned into each pet’s unique needs. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or needs a little extra care as a senior, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home My schedule is very open during the week, which allows me to give pets plenty of time, attention, and consistency in their care. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, or extended stays Monday through Thursday. I do like to keep my weekends a bit more flexible for personal time, but I’m still open to bookings with advance notice. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I’m able to prioritize each pet’s needs throughout the day. I care for pets in their own home where they feel most comfortable and secure. I stick closely to their usual routine—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions you provide. I take time to build trust at their pace, especially with shy or anxious pets, and make sure they feel safe and cared for while you’re away. I’m attentive to details like fresh water, clean feeding areas, and keeping their environment tidy. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is in good hands.
“Caitlin was great! She was so attentive and sweet to our Chico bean! She was communicative, thorough, and gave our boy such great attention while house sitting with Chico. I’d absolutely use her services again & highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great care taker for their fur babies!”
“Crystal was great. She was helpful teaching me about training a husky i recently adopted thos week. My doggie adored her and cat Jackie. She provided pictures. Great sitter who communicated keeping my anxiety at bay. I am using her again.”

“Marcella's Mom, Ivana, took care of our dog Beau for a week while we were away. She is great. She's personable, responsible and proactive. She asked for instructions before hand, followed them and took very good care of Beau. She sent daily updates with pictures too. We will definitely ask if she is available if we need a dog sitter again.”


About: I love all pets. I’ve taken care of over seven different dogs ranging from 8 weeks old to 15+. I’ve administered medication orally and topical long walks and assistance after medical procedures. I do not do boarding in my own home. 100% in the comfort of your own home please do not hesitate to reach out for any questions! I am very flexible for any pet care for any questions. Feel free to reach out. I’m available at all times of day and night to make sure our babies are okay I have a dog and cat we feed both twice a day the correct amount needed for them. Our dog goes on a daily walk. Other client care I do whatever the pet parent needs and wants to ensure the safety of their pet and whatever they are comfortable with.
“Jason was great with our animals. He sent some photos and kept in touch letting us know how everything was going and how sweet our pets were for him. We hope to be able to book him again in the future.”

“Jayna is a responsible house sitter who follows detailed directions thoroughly, and is very responsive. My 100 lbs hound is on 3 medications and needs specific attention. Jayna took care of him, my fish and my home exactly as I would have hoped while I was away with my family for a number of days. We would like to work with her again.”
“Lovely was awesome. She sent great pics & updates and left our home in great condition, even cleaned the place up for us. We already are planning to rebook her for our next trip. Definitely would recommend!”

About: In the past, I worked at a doggie day camp and boarding place, and I have been trusted to watch neighbors' and friends' pets for multiple years. I also have two cats of my own! I am a Teaching Assistant during the school year, so I have lots of availability during the summer. This includes early mornings, nights, and weekends. I feed, walk, and play with pets (as applicable) in a caring, enthusiastic, and efficient manner, with extra attention to safety and the pet's well-being. My main goal is to ensure they feel safe and cared for while their owners are away.
About: I have been called Dr. Dolittle my entire life. I have a knack for connecting with animals of all kinds. My very first job was working at a local farm with all different types of animals like horses, goats, pigs, chickens, ducks, etc. It was one of my favorite jobs, I got lucky! I also worked at a dog boarding facility which gave me experience working with multiple dogs at once. I always give animals the space to have their specific personality and the respect they deserve, as I would treat a human. Animals are often misunderstood, I’ve always tried to meet them where they stand. If there is one thing I am confident in, it’s making an animal feel safe and comfortable. And they do the same for me :) I would love to meet your faithful friend and see if they find me worthy of a tail wag or a belly pet! I currently work a very flexible part-time job. I have a lot of availability and can be very flexible. Working with animals is more than a job to me, I very much enjoy it. I will find ways to work with you and your pets personal needs. I love to schedule a meet-up before providing pet care. This is just to see that we are all on the same page and everyone feels it's a good fit. I do not offer home services. I will travel to your home so your pet can be where they are most comfortable. I work around you and your pets comfort. As a pet owner myself, I understand it can be hard to leave your companions in someone else’s care. I want to do what it takes to make you feel 100% safe and at ease when leaving your furbabies in my care.
“Cameron was very responsive, communicated well and often, and took great care of my dog. She was very respectful around the house and was always on time. She did a great job and I'll be using her again.”

“Brandon was great! He came to meet us beforehand to make sure we were comfortable. Booch immediately loved him. While we were away he was extremely communicative and sent lots of pictures. The house was also well taken care of. We would definitely hire him again!”

About: I've spent years caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I treat every pup like family. From energetic walks to calm companionship, I adapt to your dogs needs. I'm responsible, patient, and genuinely love what I do. Your pets safety and happiness always comes first. As a college student who is home for the summer. I have a pretty flexible schedule, I'm available morning, afternoons, and evenings - perfect for regular walks, drop-ins, or overnight care throughout the week. I care for pets in their home by sticking to their routine, give them lots of love, keep things clean, and ensure they feel safe and relaxed.
