“Chelsea really helped us out with a last minute booking for a dog walk and drop-in. The dogs seem to have really enjoyed her and she communicated well with us. We would definitely book Chelsea again for a drop-in!”


“Olivia did a TERRIFIC job caring for my shy cat. From the very first day she was able to get him to come out from his hiding places and spend time with her. WOW!!!!! Anduin is finicky when it comes to socialization but not with Olivia! She is his new best friend and I will not hesitate to have Olivia return in the future when I must be away from home. Thank you!!!”


“Thank you Michelle for all that you did for us while watching Romeo & Juliet! We were really able to relax and enjoy our time away knowing they were being taken care of by you!!! We loved all of the photos!”


“Many thanks to Darnell for taking good care of our two cats again. Love how even our shy guy hangs out when Darnell's around :) I always know our house and cats are in good hands when Darnell visits!”


“Cheyanne took great care of our cat. She came to the house to meet with me and go over everything before I went away. While I was gone she left a note each day explaining what was done during her visit. I would recommend her to others and definitely plan on asked her to care for our cat next time I travel.”


“Ben is wonderful! We always get a note on how the visit went and how our pups did. We’ve called on Ben numerous times, sometimes at the last minute. Thanks, Ben for taking good care of our pups.”


About: With years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and energy levels, I provide thoughtful, personalized care that goes beyond just feeding and walking. From spirited puppies to mellow senior cats, I’ve supported animals through every life stage—with plenty of love, patience, and play along the way. I’m confident handling multiple pets, giving medications (including oral and topical), and creating calm environments for anxious animals. I’ve worked with high-energy dogs who need structured adventure walks, and I’ve soothed shy rescue cats who just need quiet companionship and gentle care. My own life is full of furry friends, and I truly treat every pet like family. Whether your companion needs a hiking buddy, a cozy lap to nap on, or a sitter who takes litter box duties seriously—I’ve got you covered. As a homeschool mom who works from home, caring for pets fits seamlessly into my daily rhythm. Our days are structured but flexible, which means your pet gets plenty of attention, playtime, and consistent care throughout the day. Whether it’s taking a dog on a midday adventure walk or giving a cat some quiet companionship while I work, your pet becomes part of our loving, pet-friendly home environment. My kids are gentle and respectful animal lovers, so there’s always someone nearby ready to offer an extra cuddle or throw a toy. Because I'm home most of the time, I’m able to give pets a calm, consistent presence—perfect for those who get anxious when their humans are away. Pet care isn’t a side gig—it’s part of our family’s lifestyle. I provide loving and attentive care in your pet’s own environment, helping them feel safe and comfortable while you're away. Whether it’s regular walks, playtime, or giving medications, I follow your pet’s routine to ensure consistency and minimize stress. I’m also happy to clean up after them, including litter boxes or any messes, to keep their space tidy and calm. During my visits, I focus on creating a nurturing, stress-free atmosphere for your pet. I’ll send you updates and pictures, so you can rest easy knowing your pet is in great hands. Whether it’s feeding, playtime, or extra cuddles, I’m dedicated to providing the best care, right in the comfort of your home.

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs as long as I can remember. And my experience goes out further than just cats and dogs. I’ve helped my parents take care of the animals on their little homestead for 3.5-4 years. I took care of ducks, chickens, pigs, goats, and more. I’m currently not working and I’m free Tuesday-Saturday. I’m available in the mornings/mid afternoon. I can do night hours only on Thursdays, fridays, and Saturdays. The people that i currently live with have a huge yard and 2 friendly dogs, one that has a runner hooked up outside and the other one gets to free roam. When I am in the clients home, I will make sure their fur baby is well taken care off and has everything they need. And potentially clean up when I leave.

About: Hi! I'm Jessy and I am a lifelong owner and caretaker of cats, dogs, and other animals big and small. I'm here to make sure your pet is happy, cozy, and cared for so that you can give your full attention to work and travel while you're away. I currently own two of my own rescue pups (Jack & Kitty) and am an active animal shelter volunteer. I have formal experience with puppies, dog walking, foundational dog training, house sitting, and drop-in visits. I work from home and am able to visit with your pet during the early morning or late afternoon on weekdays and am extremely flexible on weekends. Running late or stuck in traffic on your way home? No worries - I take same day bookings and can fly over to make sure your pup gets let out and fed! For doggy day care in my home: I work from home and have two small rescue dogs that live with me. I am in an apartment complex, but we have a fenced dog run and plenty of safe areas to walk including a local park with paths! I am flexible to care for your dog in your home however they are used to - let's discuss if your pup has any special needs or preferences.

About: Being a long time animal lover, I love spending my time walking and training dogs. I’ve worked at various animal hospitals, doggy daycares, and boarding facilities. I am willing to travel, and it would be a great perk if my 3 year old lab could come play or walk with your pup as well! My schedule is very flexible. I am willing to travel, and am open to schedule changes to work with your needs as well. I can do holidays as well as weekends with a planned notice. All I want is for your pet to feel comfortable and have a great time playing and/or going for a walk. Engaging shy/fearful dogs with toys and treats is always a great way to earn trust.

“Quite pleased with Sue. I only have a cat but that said , my cat came out to play with Sue swishing Maggie’s’ fishing pole. I knew this because I got many photos and text which makes me so happy when I am away. Will definitely use again.”


“Nicole is completely reliable and thorough. She is also very kind and sends great videos and photos! We are very lucky to have found her! Her visits make me feel so much better about being back at work several days a week. My pup is blind and has to be carried down a set of stairs…at 45 pounds…and Nicole didn’t hesitate for a second.”

“Moriah was wonderful with Rosie, my 10 year old dog, who is very particular with her human friends, especially strangers. After a successful meet and greet, Moriah came by for a drop in dinner and Rosie was so excited to see her! Moriah happily sent me some video updates during the visit. I look forward to working with her in the future.”


“Shaunna was great! We were away for 2 weeks and we have 2 cats, one of which needs medication at 8am and 8pm. Shaunna was there every day and at every time and we got a full report and pictures! It was a great piece of mind to know our kitties were in very capable hands.”

Olivia's gentle and calm presence even won over my timid Natasha! I loved the photo she sent showing both Boris and his "sisfur" coming out to greet her! She was right on time, and posted photos of her visit- and my kitties were well taken care of. It's great to have someone local I can contact for drop in visits.
