“Amy looked after our dog for the first time this weekend and she was absolutely wonderful. She asked great questions about meals, walks and our dog's routine and was very thorough in every detail. Amy kept us updated with photos and messages so we never wondered how things were going. Our usually shy dog warmed up to her immediately and I felt completely at ease being away knowing our dog was in such caring hands. We will absolutely work with her again!”


“Amanda did an amazing job with our pets! Her professionalism, responsiveness, and attention to detail was top notch. We knew our pets were in good hands while the wife and I went on a weekend vacation. Amanda was able to give one of our senior dogs his insulin shots with no problem. All of the animals (two dogs and two cats) really enjoyed her care and company. HIGHLY recommend and we will book her again.”


“Caroline was a great sitter! She took great care of our dog while we were at our wedding. She gave us peace of mind about our pup when we had a million other things going on! We would certainly use her services again.”


About: I have taken care of endless pets of my own and those of family and friends. Dogs, cats, other animals, etc. I’m a big-time animal lover and grown-up farm girl who recently lost both of her pets. I am not able to have pets of my own right now, so I’m looking for a way to be with animals in my free time. I am a self-employed photographer with a flexible schedule. I also love photographing pets! I am self-employed with a flexible schedule. I can work from anywhere and I’m available to stay in your home. I can do multiple daily visits or overnights if needed. I respect whatever wishes you have for caring for your animals in your own home or farm. I am a responsible adult with a full-time job and reliable transportation. I am happy to transport to vet visits if needed. I am also a clean and tidy person and I’m happy to take care of your home while you are away if needed.

During my 10 years of petsitting work, i’ve learned how to make your pets as stress free as possible while your away. Petsitting is my full time job!

“Chelsea is great! She checks in before her scheduled time to figure out details. She sends pictures and updates, which puts my mind at ease. She even checked in on the day I was returning to offer and extra drop-in in case I was getting in late. I really appreciate her kindness!”


“Dakota met us and our GS before we left town. We were very pleased and comfortable leaving our pet under his care. He didn't just drop in to feed and walk him, he also played with him. We will never use boarding. We will differently use Dakota again when needed.”



“James was the perfect person for our sometimes hyper-anxious Pitbull. Always kind, gentle and respectful of her personality, he earned her trust with his soft, firm approach. James was absolutely dependable, timely and trustworthy. Would recommend him in a heartbeat.”


About: I have had dogs and cats all my life. I grew up on a farm and have always loved animals. My girls Piper, Ella and Shelby are my world. I love these dogs like they are children. They are spoiled I will admit. I also have taken care of my friends dogs for years while they have been out of town and my house as "Aunt Paige's Doggie Camp" All my dogs I have brought up from puppies. I have house trained them, crate trained them and trained them on the invisible fence for the yard. They always get lots of love and have lots of toys to play with, both inside and outside. I work from home, so I'm always here to take them out and take care of them. My dogs are always outside when it's not too hot or the weather is bad. I live on a quite street which ends in a cul-da-sak. So I will walk them at least 2 times a day The most important thing is they must get along with other dogs. I have a invisible fence in my yard and can certainly put your dog on it if they are trained on one. Otherwise I will go out with them and walk them. If they are well trained and can be lose a return on command they can play in the yard with my girls.


About: I have 3 adopted best friends. I have experience with dogs of all different ages and temperaments. I love going for walks and hikes with my pups. I work full time in healthcare which makes me unavailable 3 days a week. My schedule varies week to week but I am more than happy to help you on my off days. I have a fenced in yard that my 3 furry friends love to run around and play. My senior dog gets multiple walks a day. Dogs are allowed on all of my furniture but will follow any house rules provided.

About: I have had our dog for 12 years now, so we're experienced with puppies through senior needs! I regularly watch friends' and family members' dogs, and I'd love to keep your furbabies happy and comfortable! I have a flexible schedule since I work from home. I am very active and love long walks with your fur baby! Available on short notice as well. I would prefer to care for our clients' pets in their own homes, due to a two-year-old and an older dog at our home. I are very respectful of your personal space and well-regimented, so no pet will be left unnurtured!

About: Frequent dog sitting and cat sitting jobs over the past few summers/academic years. Grew up with large dogs so I am able to handle pulling on walks. I have experience with senior dogs (giving them medication/special treatment) and have two puppies so I'm skilled in that department (chaos). I'd love the opportunity to meet and play with your animals! I am big into exercise so I love walking, taking my dogs on walks or to dog parks. I am currently unemployed and preparing for college this fall (VTECH!) so I have a lot of time on my hands to dedicate to your animals I focus on keeping a relaxed environment for the pets and family. I follow any specific instruction provided by the owners (feeding schedules, medicine, walk routines). I like to give regular updates of the pets via photos/videos and often times take "photoshoots" for fun of the pets i'm taking care of.

One of our kitties is 17 and requires some extra TLC and she sent us pictures and messages that showed she was taking good care of him. Plus we felt very comfortable having her stay in our home. Highly recommend her services!”

Paige K.
“We use Paige all of the time and I cannot speak more highly of her. She is wonderful and our dogs are so comfortable there. Her dogs and my dogs get together and run themselves ragged for an hour, crash and then claim spots on the floor and furniture and everything is great! They even get excited when we say you are going to Paige's house. Paige is a wonderful person and I trust her wholeheartedly.”


Ashley G.Star Sitter
