Ivy was our first sitter we have used and she was so great! She made me feel like the dogs received so much love and attention while we were away. She also lives super close and that made both of our lives so much easier! I would book her again in a heartbeat. 😊

Molly was very responsive and on time for her appointment. She did a great job watching our dog while we were at our families for Christmas Day. Whenever we checked in, she always responded back to us right away.

Amazing job watching our Winnie! Thank you so very much to Emily for all the care given to our girl. Great communication and feedback during her stay and lots of pics to keep us up to date on how Winnie was doing while we were gone. Couldn’t be happier and will definitely be using Emily again. ❤️🐾 Winnie and her family!

Elizabeth is amazing. She helped me out last minute and it is so obvious that she loves animals. That is what I wanted someone to be here to love my dog and kitties. ❤️ it was only one night, but I hope we have the opportunity to work together again.

This was our first time hiring a house sitter, and Leslie was amazing. During our 2 week vacation, she took great care of Harvey & Artemis and sent regular updates with pictures. Returning home, our houseplants are in excellent shape (no over or under watering) and the house was in tip-top condition. She is also just a wonderful human being. I would highly recommend Leslie, and I would definitely hire her again.

About: I’ve been providing dependable, loving pet care for 6+ years, and what sets me apart is the level of comfort, patience, and genuine attention I give every pet I watch. I focus on creating a calm, safe environment where pets feel relaxed and cared for while their owners are away not just “watched.” I have experience caring for pets of all personalities and energy levels, including playful puppies, anxious pets, and senior dogs who need a gentler pace and extra patience. I’m attentive to routines, feeding schedules, medications, potty breaks, exercise, and making sure every pet receives plenty of affection and companionship. I also believe communication is important, so I provide regular updates and photos to help owners feel reassured while they’re away. My goal is always to treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. 🐾 I do work a full-time 9–5 job during the week, but pet care still fits very naturally into my routine and schedule. I make it a priority to return home directly after work to spend time with the pets in my care, and I typically only leave for necessities like work or grabbing food. I’m very routine oriented and make sure pets receive consistent attention, potty breaks, feeding, exercise, affection, and companionship throughout the day and evening. On weekends and outside of work hours, I’m home much more often and able to dedicate even more time to them. My goal is always to make pets feel comfortable, cared for, and relaxed while their owners are away. 🐾 I provide care exclusively in my client’s home because I believe pets are often the most comfortable in a familiar environment with their normal routine. Keeping pets in their own space helps reduce stress and allows them to feel safe, relaxed, and secure while their owners are away. I always take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special instructions to ensure they receive the best care possible. Safety and trust are extremely important to me, so I treat every client’s home with respect and care while also making sure their pets receive plenty of attention, affection, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout my stay. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel reassured knowing their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for. 🐾

About: I’ve had experience caring for pets my entire life and truly love animals of all kinds 💕. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I have experience with potty training, puppy whelping, crate training (at request), senior pet care, medication and giving pets patience, attention, and personalized care. My goal is to provide a loving, cage-free, luxury environment ✨ , with endless play time and cuddles to make sure your pet feels right at home. Your pets schedule will be tailored to their specific needs and aiming to be similar to the routine at home. Please inform me of my medication or special needs prior to booking. As a furry animal lover, pets here receive lots of love, supervision, personalized care, and updates throughout their stay to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and right at home. (Crating provided only at request during bed time for larger or anxiety prone pets) walks/ bathroom breaks provided with leash.

About: Growing up I haven't had the opportunity to stay in one place for too long, moved from house to house, I've gotten the opportunity to hang with some amazing animals throughout my life and I've gotten very lucky. I've taken care of multiple litters of cats and seen them go to some amazing homes. I've also had the opportunity to raise 2 dogs from the time they were just little puppies! I've also grown up around reptiles and birds! I can assure you I'm experienced and your pets will be my number one priority. Some info about me I am autistic and fairly bad at socializing so if I seem off I'm just anxious around new people and learning how to communicate properly please be patient with me, I'm trying my best to find employment this helps me out so much with bills so please consider booking with me I'm always greatful. I'm free 24/7 anytime for how long I'm needed I'm happy to work, I take my job seriously, my entire goal is to spend my time looking after the pets under my care. Pets deserve love and attention, playing with toys and regularly being allowed outside of cleaning a litter box for cats, we feed our dogs twice a day once in morning and once at night. Treats can be nice in moderation but not in large amounts... Cuddling is also an amazing activity if your pets enjoy that, they are like children and deserve plenty of love! I am an autistic individual who is incredibly social, I learn quickly and the money helps me with important bills I frequently am short on rent so please consider booking with me.

Darriell stayed at my house for 1 week to look after my 85lb pit mix, Judah. Judah needed to be given medication twice a day, have probiotics sprinkled on his food every morning, and is aggressive towards other dogs. Darriell handled EVERYTHING perfectly. She took Judah on 2 walks every day, and had no issue with his meds or probiotics. She kept me up to date every day and went adorable pictures of my fur baby. She was extremely communicative and responsible. If I wasn’t moving to another state, I would DEFINITELY hire Darriell every time I needed a dog sitter. Highly recommend.

About: I grew up with dogs, so caring for them is second nature to me. I am able to do basic grooming as well as bathing! I helped raise my family's current dog, taking her on walks as well as training her. I am not a certified trainer, but I had fun training her and found it relatively easy! I have experience with both large/extra large dogs as well as small dogs, with varying activity levels. I am currently home from college for summer break. I have church on Sunday mornings as well as karate Monday evenings, but other than that I am free to care for your fur babies! I am open and willing to adapt to the needs of your fur babies to the best of my ability. I have experience with fenced in yards and e-collars/invisible fences.

About: I grew up having dogs in my home and in my family. I’m experienced in caring for dogs that are diabetic or pre diabetic. I will care for your fur babies like they’re my own and make them feel at home. They will get plenty love and attention while they are in my care. I currently work on Monday through Thursday and at home on Fridays. I will always make sure your fur baby is cared for as directed. I have a fenced in yard and we will also go on walks. I like to get dogs out even if we go for treats.
