Ashley was amazing with our two energetic Goldendoodles. She stayed overnight for the weekend and kept us updated with photos and messages. The dogs were happy and well cared for when we got back. Will 100% book her again and highly recommend her!

About: I grew up on a farm and have experience for many years with many different animals, including dogs, cats, horses, rabbits, and even baby deer! I am the go-to pet sitter for most of my friends. I promise to care for your pet like my own ❤️ I would primarily be available on early mornings, evenings and weekends since I work full-time as a pediatric physical therapist. I can occasionally do mornings starting in the fall. I am happy to accommodate your needs the best that I can. Reach out with any questions or concerns. Eager to meet your furry friend!

CANNOT RECOMMEND HER ENOUGH. She was so kind, attentive, and loving to our pup. She messaged us multiple updates and photos throughout the day and I know our boy had a wonderful time. I will definitely utilize Gabrielle services again in the future!

Kayla was fantastic for watching my 2 pups and kitties while away. She was super receptive to their little quirks (including walking them outside on leashes in the yard during the rain because they think they’re sugar and going to melt, and would not go out!). I would definitely recommend using Kayla and plan on booking her again when she is available.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life. I had a golden retriever who sadly passed away 10 years ago and then helped raise and train a collie mix with my parents. After moving out I adopted a dog of my own who needed a lot of behavioral training and patience. I understand what it’s like to have a more difficult pet and am here to help. would love to help care for your dogs like my own. I am unable board your pets in my own home but can pet/house sit at your house or take them on walks regularly I work full time in healthcare Monday-Friday from 8-4 but am available for evening walks. I get major holidays off and am available most weekends to care for your pup as well. I cannot board your dog in my home due to behavioral issues with my own pup however I am able to stay over and care for your pup in the comfortable of their own home. I follow all instructions and guidelines provided to care for your pets appropriately and never allow dogs off leash or to interact with other dogs for safety unless otherwise specified

About: I’ve been caring for animals since childhood and previously had 2 dogs of my own. I’m comfortable with daily walks, feeding routines, playtime, and providing calm, loving care to both dogs and cats. I pay close attention to each pet’s needs and personality. I have a structured but flexible schedule that allows me to reliably care for pets before and after work, as well as on weekends. I prioritize clear communication and consistency so pets feel comfortable and owners feel at ease. I create a calm and safe environment by following the pet’s usual routine and the owner’s instructions. I’m attentive, detail-oriented, and respectful of both the pet and the home, treating each situation with care and responsibility.

Rebecca was great with the house, cats and communication! One thing that stood out to me was her calm demeanor. My cats are freaked out by some people and take a little to warm up. They both liked her right away, which gave us a peace of mind while we were away. We would absolutely book her again.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs ranging from different sizes and breeds since I was 17. Neighbors, friends, and coworkers have trusted me to walk, feed, and play with their dogs, and as a lifelong pet owner myself, I understand how crucial it is to have peace of mind when leaving your pet with a sitter. I’m attentive, empathetic, and detail-oriented, making sure every pup feels safe, loved, and comfortable whether it’s energetic walks, cuddle time, or sticking to their routine. I work full-time but am available after work for walks, drop-ins, play time, or feeding, with flexible care to fit your pet’s needs Friday through Sunday. Your pet’s comfort and happiness are my top priority! I treat every pet like family, providing safe, loving care in the comfort of your home. I’m hyper vigilant of my surroundings, making sure all doors and potential escape routes are secured, while following your instructions closely to keep your furry friend happy, calm, and secure.

We could not be more grateful for Raechel’s flexibility and communication the last week as we navigated finding pet care for a last-minute funeral. We returned home to a spotless house and happy, well cared for pets - with the TV turned on to one of their favorite programs, a detail that made us so happy. We will absolutely be booking with Raechel again!

Meeting Caroline we immediately felt like she was a good fit for our Daisy, a 14 year old sweet girl. She did an amazing job with all aspects of an older dog and also a winter snow storm. We highly recommend her. She is kind, gentle, responsive, and always upbeat. Thank you so much Caroline for all that you’ve done and we are so delighted to have met you, become friends with you, and welcomed you into our families life. You are truly the best.

I have a 12 year old dog and a 12 year old cat. The dog is pretty sick and needs very specific care and Jessica went above and beyond for both of them! You can tell she really cares deeply for the animals she takes care of. She sends very helpful updates, is very attentive to their needs and my pets already miss her.

About: Over my life I have had 5 cats, 5 dogs ranging from small yorkies to pitbulls and a golden doodle. I would usually take responsibility for these animals like taking them outside on walks, feeding them, buying the toys they love to play with. Overall I can’t remember a time in my life where a pet was present around me in my home. Pet care fits very easily in my schedule because all I have is school, I am a highschool student. After school I don’t have much to do so pet care fits easily in my schedule. I have a fenced in backyard that I used for all my dogs and if they got tired of just roaming the same backyard I’d take them on walks when they wanted it. I put them to sleep in their crates and feed them when it is time. My cats are pretty free and only bother me if they want to use the backyard or want food, but I like to keep them entertained so I play with them using the toys I’ve bought.

Cheryl was fantastic with Apple. She doesn't just love dogs, she has done her reseach to understand dogs and applies it. This is what I look for and trust in a sitter. She is extrmeely respectful as stated in her profile to apply your routine's as to not disrupt your dog's current lifestyle. /i can't speak highly enough about Cheryl. Thanks again for loving our dog the way we do.

About: Every dog is a personality, a story, a world of their own. I’m a rescue-trained pro with 20+ years caring for pups with complex needs. From reactive dogs and aggressive dogs to seniors and those with disabilities, medical needs, or physical challenges. I customize care for every dog, from fresh meals and supplements to training and behavior support. I can even take your furbaby to the vet and provide a full summary and recording if you are unable due to work or other commitments. I'm your perfect pet concierge. Trusted, expert care for dogs. Peace of mind for parents. I'm currently working on getting certified to work with neurodiverse children by taking online courses. My schedule is completely my own and allows me to be flexible based on your needs and timeline. I do both in home care and out of home care. I have a very large network of experts in pet care due to my connections in rescue, training and veterinary. My home is a single floor rancher with a finished basement for dogs who may need decompression or prefer to have their own space. We also have a 1/2 acre backyard. It is not fenced but dogs are not left outside unattended anyway. We have multiple in ground leaders if they like to sunbathe. We are right next to the woods so pack walks and a nearby dog run are great for getting the zoomies out with ball time or exploring the smells and sounds. In your home, I can adapt to whatever is needed.

Natalie took great care of our dog while we were away! Our dog is very shy and she was so good with him. She sent updates often that made me feel at ease. She left our house very clean and just as we left it. I can tell he really enjoyed spending time with Natalie. We will definitely book with her again!
