“Ros is great! She was on time and communicative and seemed very kind. My cats seemed comfortable with her right from the start. I had to go out of town while one of my cats was sick, and Ros was super easygoing about all the extra instructions and annoying follow-up questions. I would definitely book with her again.”

“My cat Daisy and I had another fantastic experience with Jenny! She worked her magic on her drop in visits to care for Daisy while I was away and my typically stranger shy kitty was happy to come out to visit with her. Jenny shared many photos so I could see my girl was doing well and I returned home to a very well cared for and happy cat.”

About: Growing up, I’ve always had many types of pets in my home; ranging from dogs and cats, to lizards and guinea pigs. Because of this I’ve been the go-to sitter for many friends and family.

I work at a school, so I have the entire summer off beginning Memorial Day weekend, save for a couple vacations. Whether it be overnight or days of check ins and providing company, I will be able to devote a lot of time to your sweet friend! I’m very respectful of other’s property, spaces, and privacy, as well as your furry friends’! Willing to accommodate any special requests regarding this.

About: Hi! My name is Olivia. I’m a 25 year old Pharmacy Technician currently going to school for Psychology. I love pets of all kinds and I’ve been taking care of cats, dogs, reptiles, and amphibians for my whole life! I love animals so much the only thing stopping me from becoming a Vet is having to put them down. I personally have two cats Mischief and Diva that get along very well with other cats. If my cats are a problem, they can easily be put away while your pets are at my home! I’m a very friendly, outgoing, and passionate person just looking for some pets to love, cuddle, and walk in my free time for some extra cash.

I do have a Cat Cam for close monitoring while away. **Pets will continue to be tended to during the evening hours past 7pm. The environment contains a Cat Cam for close monitoring while away, 7ft cat tree, an automated litter box, free feeding kibble, filtered water fountain, many interactive toys, a window mounted bird feeder for some live CatTV, as well as some cat grass and lemonbalm plants to nibble on. I hope to make every experience the most enjoyable experience for both you and your furry friend(s)!

“Courtney was very responsive and kept us updated as we were away from our pup. Lots of photos to make us smile. She went above and beyond and brought our packages in also.”

“Crystal has been an amazing sitter while I’ve been out of town for work. Great communication, sent pictures and kept me updated on everything going on when she arrived and left my house. She took excellent care of my three dogs, including my senior pup who needs a little extra attention. She went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable and well cared for while I was away. I highly recommend her for all your pet sitting needs!”

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was around 12 or 13 years old. I would take care of neighbor's, and family member's animals. Such as walking them, feeding them, giving them the love and care that they receive everyday from their owners. I am in college so my schedule is very consistent! Two days out of the week I have 8:30am classes and then the other 3 days my classes start at noon. I am very flexible however, all of my classes end at or before 5pm. So I am available early morning, late morning, afternoon evening, depending on the day! Just reach out and I’m sure we can make it work!! I will respect your home, and follow said rules in your home to be able to give your animal the best care it deserves. ♡
About: I’ve taken care of dogs every kind for as long as I can remember weather it was for my parents, friends and neighbors. They have trusted in me to make sure they being taken care of I’m currently a stay at home mom and have plenty of time on my hands to care for your fur babies and I’ve also grown up my whole life with animals in my house I have a fenced in yard and and a 6 month old puppy that will keep your fur baby company. I love to play with fur babies
“Ali did an awesome job with our 4 fur babies, I think they love her more than us now. She was very attentive to their medications making sure they took the right amount, on time, and even had to add a day worth of medication because of issues our trip incurred. She was very diligent about making sure they had plenty of playtime (fetch) weather permitting. I'm thinking she might want to take up dog photography because she got quite of few fabulous pictures that we can never seem to get. The only reason I wouldn't recommend her is because I want her just for my fur babies, in all seriousness I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER for taking care of fur babies (dogs) especially if they have to take oral medication.”

“Jill was yet again AMAZING!! She was always keeping us in the loop with the cutest pictures and updates after each visit. We highly recommend Jill! Bentley already misses her!”

About: I have had my own pets since I was a young child. I have taken care of many of my friends, family, neighbors, and church members pets over the years. I love dogs and kitties and believe they deserve to be well taken care of. They depend on us to be good to them and are at our mercy. If they are mistreated they can't say anything. This makes it that much more important to be good to our pets. I am not currently working so I have a lot of free time. I have 6 grown children who are on thier own. Two in college, the rest with their own families. I have one friendly lab mix who loves playmates. A fenced in yard, doggie door, and all hardwood floors so accidents are not tragic! I am within walking distance of our city bike/walking trail for long doggie walks.
