“Annabelle is my go-to house/pet sitter. She takes such great care of my 3 dogs/cat...my trips can be up to a week at a time; I love that I can keep them in their home environment with her. She always keeps me updated daily with photos and how everyone is doing as there are multiple personalities in this household 🤣... especially when there's a Heeler involved who likes to rule the roost 😆. My home is always left cleaner than when I left it!! Annabelle is truly AMAZING❣️”


“Erica E. cared for my 3 dogs and cat, and she did an excellent job, sending me photos and giving them great care and attention. Erica was an angel, let my house the way she found it, and was just generally great. I will certainly use her help again. She's fantastic!”


About: I’ve had dogs and taken care of dogs for a long time. I have experience with all different sizes and breeds. I understand how important it is to be able to trust the people taking care of our family members and promise to provide the best care for them all! I have a full time job, but I work 12 hour swing shifts, so I have days where I am completely off. On days I’m working I can come over before and after work and even stay the night with your babies if needed but on my off days I am open to it all! I have cats currently and will soon have a dog living with me to keep your pets company they are all more than friendly with other animals. I am working on getting a fence for my backyard right now. When I’m taking care of your animals I will follow your schedule to a T I know how important it is to be able to keep them on reliable schedules!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats ever since I was a wee lad. Even now, I’m the first call when friends and family need someone to watch their precious fur baby. I have a very adaptable schedule due to doing alot of gig work. Other than very late hours on the weekends when I’ve taken on a gig, it won’t be hard to figure out a time that works for us. I have a fenced yard with dog house and a large dog crate on the inside in order to keep your pup safe. Our house is in a gated low traffic community.

“Rose was the best. She took great care of our fur baby. Punkin really took to Rose and it was because she made her feel comfortable and safe. Rose also took great care of our home. I would recommend her for all your pets and house sitting needs. Rose is cat whisper.”


About: I’ve taken care of pets for 18 years. I love to meet and take care of your babies and I treat them like my own. I enjoy taking them on walks, making custom meals for them and bathing them. I’m a homemaker, so I am home everyday. And I can be very attentive to your baby(ies)! We are normally outside each day for 3-4 hours or as needed! I have a sweet friendly 8 year old lab, Lilly, and a 3 year old German Shepherd, Sammi who enjoy company!! We do currently live right by a dog park and if needed we can crate. But they will not be locked up all day. I respect all wishes for feeding habits, exercise routines and potty breaks!

About: I’ve taken care of my own personal reptiles, Bruce(leopard gecko) and Wayne(Bearded Dragon), for the past few years. I also had my pit bull pepper, and two terriers named Kirby and Steve. I love all animal, fur or scales, and you can trust that I will love your fur baby as much as you when you aren’t there. My schedule can more around a little, so I’m always free before 3 pm or any time after 3 pm. I am very flexible and can help to accommodate with what you need for your pets! I have a half acre backyard, with clean, low cut grass, and minimal risks. I have a large home with plenty of toys, a great neighborhood for walks/runs, and the ability to keep up with the more energetic type while still being able to calm down and relax with the chilled type of pup.

About: Do you worry about your little baby when you're away at work? Do they suffer from separation anxiety when you're gone? Do you simply need to have someone take them for a walk or feed them and real quick? I have many years of experience with dogs and cats, I give really good massages that relax anxious animals. I have a calming and gentle voice that works well with most dogs and they tend to feel at ease and enjoy their time with me until you return. Trust me to make your baby happy today I currently work part-time as a caregiver, but I hope to do dog sitting full time if the job does well. I can also offer other services like light house cleaning for other prices or cooking I will follow all house rules you have for your dog. If you don't let your dog eat people food then I won't allow them to eat it. If you go by a certain schedule for going potty, I will follow this as well.
