“Amanda is the best! I would trust her with any pet!!! She is reliable and dependable. She even did house hold tasks that were not asked of her! Book Amanda, you will not regret it!!”


“Rihanna was wonderful with my anxious girl, Lua. She was patient and took time to let Lua get comfortable with her. I was so nervous to leave Lua, but Rihanna did such a great job with the Rover card updates, I was at ease while away. Highly recommend her, and will definitely be using her services again.”


“Liz is fantastic! She cared for my two cats and did a wonderful job. My Maine Coon is very cautious around new people and he connected with Liz very quickly. She came over for a meet and greet before our sitting dates and followed all of the items I had discussed with her on each visit. Great person to work with. Highly recommend her!”


“Samantha was so great with our hyperactive nutball German shepherd Remington! We get nervous leaving her with people but she responded so amazingly to Samantha! Very clear that she loves animals and it showed with how happy our pup was!”

About: I've been caring for animals my entire life, from tiny kittens to large senior dogs. My experience includes in home care for multiple pets at once, senior dog care with special needs, and providing daily care for Yorkshire Terrier and a high-energy cattle dog - both over a year. I've also shared 16 loving years with my Bombay Cat, providing attentive care through injuries and end-of-life needs, and now I have a well-trained, happy Cockapoo of my own (plus I dog-sit for her brother!) I have experience with directed senior pet care, administering basic medications (including subcutaneous fluids), and light training. My lifelong love for animals means I treat every pet like family - whether it's long walks, gentle care for older pets, energetic playtime, or plenty of cuddles. What sets me apart is my ability to adapt to to each animal's unique personality and needs, my patience, and dedication to creating a safe, loving environment where pets feel at home. During the week I am lucky to work a remote position at a software consulting firm that I have worked at for over 15 years. This makes it easy to work wherever I need to, and provides the opportunity to spend more time at home with my pup, but also opens up my time before and after my regular work day, also a flexible lunch hour for midday check-ins. On walks, I make sure your pet is safe, happy, and engaged. During visits I make sure to be attentive to your pet and that they feel secure.

About: All animals seem to love me. So assure you, your dog will. I’ve never run into a dog that didn’t like me yet! I have a passion for dog baths and interactive play! I love a good game of tug-of-war or fetch. I also love doggy kisses and spending quality time with each doggy I meet! I work weekends only so I have plenty of time to spend with your animals throughout the day. I can do any task given to me with patience, kindness and grace! I feel that pets love to be in their own home because that is where they feel most comfortable since that’s the space they’ve always known. At home, we have all the tools we need to be successful in our visit and the love of a companion to make it even better!

“Kelsey is FANTASTIC! We arranged a meetup ahead of the visit and she was on-time and professional. She took care of both of our dogs while we were away visiting family out of state for the weekend. She captured photos on every visit and we returned to the pups in good spirits - clearly happy and healthy. We highly recommend Kelsey!”


About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and can’t imagine a home without them! Over the years, I’ve cared for my own pups as well as countless others through dog walking and pet sitting.

I’m passionate about animals and truly love spending time with them, earning their trust and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away!! I currently work remotely 4 days of the week with 1 day in office. This allows me flexibility to dog walk and pet sit since I am not tied to an in person office. During the work day I can care for your dog and have even more freedom and flexibility to do this after the workday is over at 5pm. Weekends also get my full attention as long as I am not away! When caring for pets a clients home, I make it a priority to follow their usual routines to keep them comfortable and stress free. I take the time to understand each pet’s needs, whether that’s feeding schedules, medication, walk preferences, or favorite toys. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection, and I always treat their home with the utmost respect and cleanliness. My goal is to ensure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away!

Nadine Z.
“Nadine cares deeply for the quality of care she provides to animals. She has taken care of my cavapoo many times, whether she stops by during the day for a check-in or takes him on a nice long walk when I can't. She loves to spoil all of her furry friends and loves and treats every pet she meets like they are her own. Her own pup is one of the most well taken care of dogs I have ever seen. Nadine has made homemade dog treats, brings her to work, maintains her health and grooming, takes her on hikes, and generally finds anything she can to ensure that her pup (and any pet she is in charge of) is happy and healthy. I can't recommend her enough to anyone who is looking for a caregiver!”

Yesterday, Ryan had his first two visits with my pomeranians, Puff and Fluff, and did a great job making them feel comfortable. They are not used to being taken care of by anyone other than family and helped them be more at ease with the pet sitting experience.
