10. Abbie S.
About: I have experience with a variety of dogs and cats and work to maintain your pet's utmost comfort! I have experience with anxious dogs, young dogs, senior dogs, and dogs with a history of behavioral issues. I also have experience with special needs pets, including allergies, orthopedic conditions, and dietary restrictions. I am current a medical student at ACOM and will be available this summer most days when I am not volunteering, working on research, or visiting family. During the school year, my schedule remains fairly flexible as well. I strictly provide pet sitting services in the client's home. I feel that pets are most comfortable in their own space and routines. By watching your pet in your home, they are able to remain in their comfort zones, have access to their own toys/beds/comfort items, and have a reduced risk of illness/injury since they stay at home and are not exposed to other animals or different environments.


11. Jill A.

“Jill was outstanding! We received several pictures and updates on how things were going during our absence. All of our babies (one dog and three cats) were well taken care of and happy. Our home was spotless upon our return and she even checked in to make sure everything was left ok. Not once did we have to worry or be concerned about anything while we were gone. We highly recommend Jill - she'll do a fantastic job pet/house sitting for you. We definitely plan on using her again the next chance we have!”


12. Madison B.
About: Hi! My name's Madison, and I've been taking care of and loving animals for well over a decade. I've helped raise 3 litters of puppies, worked at an animal rescue for 3 years, and shadowed a veterinarian (which was awesome). I'm currently a hairstylist, but my real passion is to be a certified veterinary technician and own a biiig plot of land full of animals! I love all animals from dogs and cats, to fish and birds. You got em; I'll love em! I personally have a rescue dog and cat, but my mom has 2 senior-aged King Charles Cavaliers that I grew up with and groom for her. I've owned fish, snails, puppies, kittens, dogs, and cats, and I've cared for other people's birds, fish, reptiles, and guinea pigs. I definitely have a soft spot for guinea pigs and other small fluffies so if you have one (or multiple!) give me a shout!! I'm self-employed so I can walk, bathe, train, or care for your (and my) animals whenever I need to! I typically take my dog out every few hours, and feed her twice a day, but can adapt that to your pets! I'm very soft-spoken and understanding of why pets do what they do, so need to worry about harsh scoldings or punishments around me. I'm a firm believer that this is our pets' world and we're just living in it! I do allow my pets on furniture and on the bed, but can be accommodating to any behaviors you want me to avoid with yours! My job situation is a little unstable right now, like many others, but I will try my best to be available during peak hours for you and your pets! When walking dogs in my care, I make sure to go out mostly during the daylight, but if I do go out at night I make sure I have my flashlight on so cars can see and I use a location app that sends emergency services to my precise location if something were to go wrong. I also keep all doors, windows, trash cans, cabinets, etc. closed while inside so no one gets into anything they’re not supposed to be in.


13. Jeannine S.

“Jeannine was wonderful!!! She took care of our dog and 3 cats while we were away and we were confident they were in good hands. She sent us photos, gave us regular updates and took great care of our home on this multi-day overnight visit. We will absolutely work with her again and highly recommend her!!”


14. Sydney S.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life & have loved taking them walking. I understand that dogs can’t go all day without being let out, so I want offer my services for walks or potty breaks. I don’t like leaving my dog all the time by herself, so I want others to have a safe space for their animals as well. Dogs get lonely too! During the week early morning or evening and weekends any time! Fridays-Sundays are flexible for me as long as we communicate your needs to make sure I can fit them. I have a 4 year old Weimaraner. She enjoys sleeping on the couch during the day and chasing her ball and going on long walks at night. She gets plenty of treats & love because she’s our fur baby


15. Raven T.
“Trusting someone with your pet is paramount, and Raven is absolutely that person. She is incredibly reliable and responsible, and it's clear she has a genuine affection for your fur babies. She has a passion for animals and treats them with the utmost care and respect. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a loving and trustworthy pet sitter.”


16. Celeste V.

“Is there an option for 100 stars?!? Celeste is a gem! She stayed with our two Pyrenees for 8 days and we never worried about a thing. We got pictures/videos every day and could see that our puppers were happy and well cared for. Celeste kept the house clean and kept the puppers even cleaner! We could tell she had brushed and groomed them throughout the week. She is also a talented artist and left a drawing of the puppers on our fridge. We highly recommend Celeste to care for your fur babies ♡”


17. Alora R.

“Alora went above and beyond. My girlfriend constantly communicated and requested Alora to do new things. Alora responded in a timely manner and didn’t disappoint. She informed us of what she was doing when she did it and kept our anxiety down. After vacation, we returned to a home with nothing out of place or any property damaged. 10 out of 10 would recommend!!”


18. Morgan B.

“Morgan was amazing! She was so good with my pups. She sent me lots of pics and updates while I was away. I definitely trust her with my animals and would recommend her to other.”


19. Alyssa B.

“Alyssa was so kind and great with my pets. She contacted me several times with updates and pictures. I definitely will use her again!”


20. Anna S.
