I had such a great experience! They came by to take care of my boy Toby—gave him a potty break, fed him dinner, and spent some quality time with him—and I couldn’t have felt more at ease. From the moment I met them, I could tell they were kind, knowledgeable, and genuinely great with dogs. Toby absolutely loved them right away, which says a lot. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. They were reliable, communicative, and clearly knew what they were doing. I would 100% book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy and caring sitters!

About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was 10 years old and have had several different types of pets ranging from dogs, cats, fish, bearded dragons, rabbits, and turtles. I am a teacher during the school year and I am looking to use my summer free time by providing you with ease and peace of mind when it comes to your pet! I have a fenced in yard, plenty of food, treats, toys and beds for my own dog. I ensure daily meals are met, medications are taken, and exercise is completed!

About: Pets are family. They deserve to be treated with the highest quality of care. I have had 8 years of experience pet sitting, pet walking, and pet care. I take pride in not only my love for animals, but my ability to provide a peace of mind for pet parents alike. I have a flexible work schedule and therefore am able to accommodate pets with more bathroom breaks, walks, and overnight stays if needed. It is also something embedded into my daily life with my own pets. In my clients home I aim to make both pet and pet parent as comfortable as possible. Ensuring directions are reviewed between myself and you before a service is necessary and critical in order to ensure the best possible care of your pet.

Michael has been absolutely wonderful with our doggo! He has such a care and attention to her needs, and even helped out when she got into trouble and got into our pantry lol. We have a reactive dog, and he's been great with taking her for walks and managing her energy and needs safely. We can tell that she is very comfortable with him, and would recommend Micheal to anyone with a furry friend! :)

My dog Avery met Mary Jo for the first time today. You would have thought they were old friends since he was so excited to see her! He didn't hesitate going for a walk with her...and probably would have gone home with her if I let him! I am thrilled to know there is someone who I can trust to take care of him when I need help. Avery definitely has a new BFF.

About: I currently have a mini bernadoodle named Piper. She is two years old and I have had her since she was 10 weeks old. What sets me apart is that I love her as much as my children and she has a piece of my heart. I make sure she is safe and happy every single day. I currently working fulltime but I am able to pet care weekdays, weekend mornings and evenings. I am flexible so if there is a day of the week and time you prefer feel free to ask and if I can make it work, I will be there. I am in the process of moving, so I can not have pets in my home after June 2026 but at someone else's home, your pet is my priority. I will make sure they are fed, exercised and loved.

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, bunnies (especially Holland Lops!), and even small rodents like hamsters and guinea pigs. Animals have always been a big part of my life, and your pet will be treated just like one of the family while they’re with me. I have a fully fenced-in yard and a cozy home filled with love—and four wonderful, respectful kids who are just as excited to welcome your furry friend as I am. We believe in gentle hands, lots of attention, and keeping routines as close to home as possible. I also have: • A well-behaved, fixed dog with a calm temperament who gets along well with others • An extra crate and room to accommodate different needs • A work-from-home schedule, so I’m home most of the day for supervision, cuddles, and potty breaks • A love for long neighborhood walks—perfect for active pups who enjoy fresh air and exercise Whether your pet needs space to play, snuggles on the couch, or just someone to keep them company while you’re away, I’m here to provide a safe, loving environment. Boutique, In-Home Style Care 🐾 I’m a low-volume sitter by choice because I believe pets thrive best in an environment that closely mirrors their own home. Your fur baby won’t be one of many — I only board one family at a time, ensuring individualized attention, consistency, and calm. There’s no crating all day or night here (unless that’s part of your pet’s normal routine). Pets are treated like family — lounging comfortably, following familiar schedules, and receiving the same level of care, affection, and structure they’re used to at home. If you’re looking for a peaceful, home-style experience where your pet receives truly personalized care rather than a kennel setting, you’re in the right place. 💛 I’d love to meet your pet and answer any questions you have. Let’s chat and see if we’re a good fit! I work remotely, so I’m home all day long! Evenings may be busy with ubering my kids around, but your babies will be kept in a safe and clean environment if I’m gone for a short time. I have a fenced in yard, for the dogs to play. My kids are well versed in pet safety, regarding doors and gates. And I have two separate areas of the house your babies are free to roam that are away from outside access doors. When boarding, please bring all supplies. Food, treats, toys. Animals away from home may be confused. Bedding, smells from home are comforting! I do have litter boxes, but do not store litter, as cats have different preferences. Please bring enough litter for your stay.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We can't praise Mike enough for his incredible pet-sitting services! He has stayed over and also dropped in for visits. He has taken care of our three dogs and two cats flawlessly. Mike not only follows our instructions to the T, but also has a remarkable ability for understanding our pets' needs even without detailed guidance. It truly gives us peace of mind knowing our furry crew are in such capable hands. His warm and caring approach makes it clear that he genuinely loves animals, and our pets adore him! If you're looking for a reliable and skilled pet sitter, we highly recommend Mike. You won't regret it!

About: I love dogs and have always grown up with them. My first dog was a St. Bernard/Lab mix and I currently have two spoiled Havanese pups that are brothers. I am reliable, believe in clear communication and provide frequent updates to ensure that owners are comfortable knowing their pets are safe and happy while they’re away! I’m in school part-time and work per diem so I’m pretty flexible with my time. Let me know what works for you and your pet(s) and I’m sure we can figure something out! I treat every dog that I look after as if they were my own. I’ll make sure to build trust and give them all the extra love, cuddles, and attention while you’re away!

Eleanor went completely above and beyond to take care of my cats! One of my cats is a too smart for his own good, and he ended up getting into a specific cabinet for the first time and eating a whole bag of treats. Eleanor found a way to keep him out of that cabinet, and she also spent extra time with him to make sure he wasn't having any digestive problems. She's also super knowledgeable about cats and was so communicative with me the whole time I was gone!
