“Kayla did a great job watching our pups while we were out of town. She provided updated photos daily, was communicative, and took care of our place while we were away. We will definitely be using her services in the future!”


“Gretta was wonderful and did a great job checking in on my babies while I was out of town! She communicated very well, was always timely, and kept me updated as needed. I would definitely recommend her to care for your animals!”


About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 5 years of experience caring for my own dog, cat, and bearded dragon. I also spent a year working at a kennel, where I gained hands-on experience with pups and kitties of all sizes and temperaments. Whether it’s playtime, walks, feedings, or just a little extra TLC, I’m here to treat your pet like family. When I’m not caring for animals, I love playing video games, writing, and spending time with my husband. I’d love to meet your furry (or scaly!) friend! I’m currently a full-time homemaker, which means I have plenty of time to take care of your sweet pets! It’s always been my dream to open up an animal rescue, so this is just another great step in that direction! I understand the anxiety of leaving your pets when going on vacation or a needed trip somewhere, but I can promise you’ll be leaving them in good hands, and that you’ll receive frequent pictures, updates, and anything else to ease your mind!

“Alex house sat our two English Setter dogs for 4 nights and we will definitely book with her again. She came back during her lunch periods to let them out and promptly returned after work to let them out again and feed them dinner. She provided regular updates and pictures which always made us happy. Dogs (and house) were very well taken care of while we were away. Thank you Alex! Hank and Dale greatly appreciated your company!”


“100% would rehire Aleisa! After a 10 day trip away, our house was left in spotless condition and our Wendy was happy and healthy. Wendy is a timid dog and the only thing she really needs is attention and love and she definitely received that! So happy we found Aleisa!!”

About: I have taken care of pets more than half my life. I am willing to take care of them however you need. They will get the care as if they were my own. I truly love animals! I am off for the summer and I am very flexible. I am available whenever is needed. I prefer to watch your pet at your house but I am also flexible with that. The dog will be able to be out all the time. We are at home all the time. Your dog will be treated very well in our home!

About: Personally I have 2 of my own dogs, I have experience with pregnancy and birth! Multiple breed care small and large! High energy, low energy, whatever needs to be done! I also have experience with medication distributions. I’m currently working part-time and have free time in my day-to-day schedule and I love animals and to help others! I am also available for overnights! In my clients home, I keep the house neat and tidy and pick up any messes made by your fur baby! I keep a watchful eye on them and make sure they are getting what they need plus a few treats!

About: I have had dogs of all sizes my entire life. Most recently I have raised an Australian shepherd, Bernese Mountain Dog and golden retriever. I have dog-sat since I was a teenager for friends and family. I am currently in medical school and although I cannot currently have a dog of my own here, I go home frequently to love on my parents dogs and would love to love on yours! I am free most days with the exception of a few hours when I am unable to be there due to class or clinic responsibilities. I am currently unable to take dogs in my home due to my currently lease but I have years of experience with dogs and am excited to care for yours!

About: I’ve grown up with both cats and dogs; I don’t have a preference between the two. I have two cats of my own from the same litter. Im willing to stay overnight with your fur babies or make multiple visits in a day for care and play with them. I work a regular 9-5 working in ABA therapy, so I can make morning and evening visits for up to an hour at a time. I like to give my cats two meals a day with a mixture of wet food and dry food. They like lots of cuddles, which is perfect cause so do I. I mostly pet sit for my parents when they go out of town, and I like to take their lab for walks and pets.

“Kimberly did an excellent job of house sitting our 3 furbabies. She is very pet friendly and loves them as if they were her own. Kimberly maintained excellent, prompt and professional daily communications with us. Kimberly followed all the instructions given to her at a high level of detail and asked questions if needed. Kimberly took excellent care and was very attentive to our furbabies needs during severe thunderstorms. Kimberly is a very professional, caring, respectful, loving person. We will definitely have Kimberly house sit our furbabies again. We highly recommend Kimberly for caring and sitting for your pets.”


“Alexander was a truly wonderful housesitter and a rare gem to find. He followed all instructions perfectly, stayed longer than requested to ensure Echo wasn’t left alone too long, kept the house spotless, and was flexible with a last-minute schedule change. I couldn’t have asked for better—I would highly recommend him. Thank you, Alexander!”


“Ashley is a very sweet gal who appears to love animals. I was disappointed that over our four day absence I only received one photo, and no additional texts/emails. I haven't heard from her about how it went with the dogs either. She was pretty awesome in the house, no messes, not even extra garbage! Bed made and bathroom is really great. The dogs were all super excited when we arrived home, they seemed happy and I don't know if it was just because they missed us so much or if they lacked human interaction for 4 days. Again, I only have one picture for one morning. I was really hopeful for this service, but honestly, I could have had a neighbor attend to my dogs while we were gone, for less $$ and a lot more attention (i suspect) I'm on the fence, because of course my doggies are ok, and super happy that I'm home, but I was hoping for them to have a little more attention during our absence, by evidence of photos. Again, our house was perfect when we came home (there is a pee spot in our living room, on the hardwood, hard to see) So it's hard for me to rate this dog sitter. I gave her a four, but honestly, if I hired her again I would demand multiple photos per day and interaction with me via text, as to how the encounter is going. Again, this gal was super sweet, left my house completely in order, my dogs are happy and healthy. I probably did not communicate to her that I needed that kind of interaction, but I thought (assumed) that it was part of the transaction.”


“Andrea is wonderful. She doesn’t seem to meet a stranger. Very comfortable with her right off the bat at the meet and greet. Sent pics and keep me posted. Definitely will use her again!”


About: What sets me apart is the care and attention I give every pet, especially those with special needs. While I’m new to sitting for other dogs professionally, I have a senior dog of my own who is both diabetic and blind. I give her insulin twice a day and help her safely navigate daily life, so I understand the patience, consistency, and love it takes to care for older pets or those with medical needs. I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I'm a newly registered EMT currently looking for full-time work, and in the meantime, I’m looking to stay active and productive doing something I enjoy—spending time with animals! Pet care fits perfectly into my schedule right now, and I’d love the opportunity to give your pets the attention and care they deserve while I have the time to fully commit to them. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my focus is always on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I stick closely to their usual routines—feeding, walks, playtime, and any medications—so they feel at ease while you’re away. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs, whether they’re energetic, shy, or require special care. Cleanliness, communication, and compassion are always part of how I care for animals.

About: I grew up with animals and have always felt a special connection with them. My family and friends always know that I will be there for their loved ones as if they were my own. I currently work full time in the evenings, however I find time within the mornings to make my rounds. I make sure the babies have everything they need in a timely manner! I do have a fenced in area as well as 2 spare bedrooms, in case of needing private space. I also own 2 dogs and a cat, that are friendly towards other fur babies. I do have a kennel as well, in case.

“When my senior tripawd, Sarge, developed a vestibular issue a week before our trip I wasn't at all sure I'd be able to leave him, particularly with a new petsitter! But Samantha kept in contact to see how he was doing and offered to come by again two days before we left to see how he was feeling and what we were doing to help him. I don't know if it was her presence or the treats she brought but that was the first real meal he'd managed in a week! She managed his meds, balance issues, and lackluster appetite like a pro while still keeping our little Poot girl spoiled and happy! She found so many creative ways to build up Sarge's appetite. I got plenty of updates and she didn't hesitate to ask about any concerns. I still didn't expect to see Sarge so happy and well on his way to recovery. And Poot had a marvelous time with a human who properly appreciates her cuddles! I've been a petsitter for over 15 years and I know how hard it can be, especially with older or ill kiddos. But Samantha was amazing! She worked so hard to make sure my pups were healthy and happy (and thoroughly spoiled!). Her experience and abilities are outstanding. I've really enjoyed working with her and it's such a relief to have a trustworthy petsitter again!”


About: Ahoy, pet parents! I’m a retired Coast Guard veteran with 22 years of service and over 30 years of caring for animals—both on land and at sea. Whether your pup needs a daily walk or a comfy port to stay while you’re away, I’ve got you covered! I offer reliable, tail-wagging walks and safe, loving boarding with plenty of belly rubs and play. With me at the helm, your furry friend gets first-class care, every time. So drop anchor and relax—your pet’s in shipshape hands! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine—it’s not just a job, it’s a lifestyle. As a retired Coast Guard veteran, I thrive on structure, reliability, and purpose, and caring for animals gives me all of that and more. Whether it’s morning walks, afternoon check-ins, or overnight boarding, I plan my days around the needs of the pets in my care. I’ve been around animals for over 30 years, so feeding, walking, playtime, and even administering medications are second nature. Every day is a mission to keep tails wagging and whiskers twitching, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. In My Home: Your pet’s safety and comfort come first. I have a secure, fully fenced yard perfect for supervised play and exercise, as well as clean, comfortable kennels for pets who need their own space to relax. I follow your pet’s routine—meals, meds, walks, and cuddle time—to help them feel right at home. My home is calm, structured, and always pet-friendly. In Your Home: When visiting your home, I treat it with the utmost respect and care. I stick to your instructions and your pet’s normal routine—whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or litter box cleaning—to minimize stress and keep things familiar. I also provide regular updates so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. No matter where I care for your pets, they’ll get dependable, loving attention—just like they’re part of the crew!
