“Lindsey was absolutely wonderful! She visited us before our trip to meet our cats and go over their routine, and we were immediately impressed by her friendly and caring nature. Both of our cats warmed up to her right away—even our more reserved one, which says a lot! When we returned home, the cats were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We’re so grateful to Lindsey and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter!”


“Hound is an absolute professional and joy to work with. I felt secure knowing that my pet was in his care, which was consistently nothing short of excellent. Strongly strongly recommend! 😊👏🙏❤️”


“Brittney is wonderful! Dot warmed right up to her. She followed our instructions on medication well, was very open and clear with communications and took wonderful care of Dot Dot. We recommend Brittney to care for your pets!”



“Sheryl is a phenomenal Rover. She takes exceptional care of our cats, and she goes out of her way to make sure our particularly-stubborn cat gets love and attention while we are away. Sheryl is also very kind and a fantastic communicator. I highly recommend her if you’re looking for a pet sitter!”


“Emily was wonderful! We loved that our kitties felt comfortable with her (even our shy one!) and she communicated throughout our trip. We will reach out for her services again! Thank you Emily!!!”


“Callie did a great job with our girls! On time as scheduled and very patient and let the girls slowly warm up to her. She was so detailed in her note and sent us lots of great photos! Will definitely be using her again!!!”


“This is our 3rd time using Kirsten to check in with our cat for a long weekend. She always arrives EXACTLY at the time specified and includes a picture. During this visit she wrote that our cat didn’t come around for the whole half hour which worried me but she messaged back immediately with food status etc which was a huge relief. I needed that assurance! She is also very prompt with accepting a reservation and has also watched our dog in her house twice. Our pets seem happy and well cared for and I’ll continue to request her whenever needed!”


About: Hello! I’ve had a love for animals since I was young. I have two dogs, 2 year old male Havanese (Blue), and 4 year old female Lab (Belleray). I enjoy spending time with all dogs, and learning things about different breeds. I currently train my own dogs, and have grown so much over the years as a patient dog parent/trainer. I work from home and am able to care for your babies throughout the day. I frequently allow for dogs to go outside for potty breaks and to get zoomies out. I will always respect your needs, and your babies needs. I am able to safely walk your dogs and take them on outings. I am not afraid to get down and dirty to make sure your dog is well taken care of.

“Megan has been wonderful with Dot! We believe that Megan takes great care of her in our absence, follows our instructions to a T and communicates promptly and effectively. We recommend having her care for your pets :)”


“Mikaela did a great job with Tyler. He's an older cat and needs some special care and she was really great with that and also cleaning up after his accidents! Also sent lots of pictures! Thank you so much!”


“Ashlee was very reliable and great at communicating! She was super sweet with the cats and made sure to update me each visit. I would definitely recommend her to others! Thanks Ashlee!”


About: I have always had a passion and love for animals ever since I was little. I have experience caring for many different animals such as dogs, cats, rabbits, chinchillas, hamsters, gerbils, rats, ferrets, birds, lizards, frogs, and fish. I used to volunteer at an animal shelter and even ran a summer camp there about animal health and safety for children. I have experience in administering medications and topical treatments in different animals. I also have experience in dogs with anxiety. Leaving your pet in someone's care can be nerve racking, but I understand that your pet is family. I have a 15 Ib Havapoo male (neutered) dog that will keep your furry friend company. I work throughout the week but I am home all day Saturday and Sunday to watch your furry friends. I am also available weekday mornings until around noon so I can make accomodations if needed. I have a large fenced in yard for your dog to run around in. Please be aware that the fence is 2.6 ft tall (about waist height). The height isn't a problem for smaller dogs. My dog is allowed on the furniture and sleeps in my bed with me at night.

“Britny really helped us out on short notice and did drop-in visits with our pups. She was responsible and had good communication. We'd definitely use her again. Thanks so much Britny”


“Sheena was wonderful! Great communication skills, wonderful sitter who kept meticulous details of her visits with my cat, Dot. Definitely recommend Sheena to watch your four legged friends! :)”

About: Hi there, I’m Tyla Ames! With over five years of experience in pet sitting, I’ve worked with countless dogs and cats. Growing up with my Australian cattle dog, who was my pride and joy, I developed a deep understanding of the unique needs and personality traits of different breeds. My experiences with my own pets have shaped my commitment to providing the best care, whether it's a high-energy dog who loves outdoor adventures or a calm cat who just wants a cozy place to nap. When you leave your furry friends in my hands, you can rest easy knowing they’re receiving the best care possible in a stress-free, comfortable environment. I work 5a-1p Sunday, Tuesday-Thursday. I am committed to early morning walks/feeds. I can do a midday walk/feed during my workday. I am available evenings and weekends. When I care for pets in your home, my goal is to provide the same level of comfort and routine that they are used to. I respect your home and routines, ensuring your pets are well taken care of in a familiar, stress-free environment. I’ll follow your specific instructions for feeding, exercise, and any special needs your pet might have. Additionally, I send regular updates and photos to keep you in the loop, so you can relax knowing your pets are in good hands.

About: I have always been an avid animal-lover. From childhood into adulthood, I have owned and cared for a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, small mammals, reptiles, birds & fish. My family & I currently share our home with two dogs, a bearded dragon, a Russian tortoise, & a ball python. I have several years of professional work experience in animal care (zoo, kennel care, walking, basic grooming) and wildlife / parks & recreation—both of which are relevant. I enjoy the outdoors and keeping all of our furry (& scaly) friends happy. I will board dogs, small mammals, reptiles & birds in my home! Upon request, I can do drop-in visits for cats or exotic animals within a 15 mile radius. I am currently a stay-at-home mom & so my schedule allows me to be at home majority of the time. If I need to leave the house, it’s never for more than a couple of hours. I have a large four-story home, which provides amble space for pets to play or to be separated if need be. I utilize crates for dogs who need or prefer it. Our yard is unfenced, so I use slip leads and tie-out cables for potty time.

About: I’ve had dogs all my life. I’ve always wanted to go to school to become a Vet and I now work at a doggy day care. I have such a big heart for dogs. I’d really love to be a friend to your animals :) I’m currently working at an assisted living facility so my hours vary. I have a lot of free time though in between my shifts, and would love to help you out I do not have a fenced in yard yet, although there is a great dog park within walking distance of my home! I love nice walks with dogs as it is very peaceful to me.
