“Sheena has always been so great with both our dogs! Our dog Jake has trouble getting along with some people but she took the time to come have a little meet and greet with him before we left for our trip and he absolutely loved her! She is extremely reliable and gives regular updates. Absolutely recommend!”
“Absolutely wonderful and reliable !! Went out of his way to care for my birds and cat while I was away . Went the extra mile and used his own timer so my birds would have their lights on during the day. A really great guy !!”

About: My love for dogs is unmatched! I’m a junior in college who absolutely adores dogs and also happens to want to make money for tuition😂 For the summer : *for house sitting, Im available every day but on weekdays I would need to leave from 4:30-7 to go to work. Mon-Thurs: any time up until 3:30pm or after 7pm Fri, Sat, Sun : free all day I am super flexible! During the summer I have a very open schedule - so we can work around it more. Once I start school again I’ll update my availability! I will treat your animals with the care, love, and respect they deserve. Everything I do, I put 110% into, and I’ll make sure your pups feel loved! I always make sure to check if there’s ever notes from the client, get the important things done (like meds, food, necessary walks/bathroom) and then be able to focus on playtime or whatever your pup wants!
“Sooo lucky to have found Rebecca. She has been phenomenal. I know I am leaving my little one in great hands every time I need to travel for work. By little I mean my 110lb baby. I can't say enough great things about Rebecca I was always nervous leaving my little guy with someone since he can be a handful, but I know I don't have to worry about him when I am not around. I am sure you will be just as happy as I am.”

“Megan did a great job caring for our cats while we were away! She also did some extra things that were not on my “ to do list”! Very nice and I would highly recommend Megan!”

“Dave took excellent care of my dog. It was clear how genuinely caring and professional Dave is. He provided daily updates with photos. I will definitely be using his services again. Highly Recommend!!!”

About: I’ve had a passion for animals my entire life! In fact, I always thought I’d be a vet but ended up going into human medicine instead. Growing up, my family had a Brittany spaniel named Dixie. She was my best friend! I enjoyed taking her for walks, training her, and giving her lots of love. We also had a cat, who I helped nurse back to health after she was hit by a car. My neighbors entrusted me with taking their dogs out to go potty and for walks from a very young age. A few years ago I adopted a stray cat who I named Daniel. She’s the best! I also have an Australian shepherd named Meeko. I enjoy training him and seeing how smart he is! I love the challenge of keeping up with his high mental and physical demands! I would love the opportunity to help take care of your pets as well! I currently work full time, so I am only available to provide pet care in the evenings and weekends. My schedule varies each week so let me know what you need and hopefully I’ll be able to help! I am able to take your pet out for bathroom breaks, walks, play with him/her, feed him/her, help train, etc. I will go above and beyond to provide the best care to your furry friend!
“Ashlyn was very responsive to a last minute visit for our 2 large dogs. She came and met the dogs the day before and took care of them the day of with no issues. We will be sure to use Ashlyn for our future trips.”

“My regular sitters were on vacation and I needed someone sorta last minute to do bedtime drop-in visits for my pups while I was away, and Melissa was great! Always on time and sent pictures and updates on the dogs. Super easygoing and friendly! I would definitely use her services again if needed!”
About: My partner Jack and I love caring for pets! Both of us have been caretakers for pets practically our whole lives, including senior pets and pets with special needs, in addition to small animals like rodents and birds. Whoever you need help with, we’re more than capable. We are so excited to get to know your pets. With us, your pets will get all the attention and exercise they need during your busy day. We are both very attentive to your pets needs and do our best to make them feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. We know just how important your companion is to you, so safety is taken into consideration at all times. We keep dogs on leashes at all times when letting them go outside. I work as a barista at a coffee shop and Jack is an employee at Pitt. Together our schedules allow us to have at least 1 person home for most of the day. On rare occasions when neither of us are home, at most we are away for 3-4 hours. We have a large yard with a lead and 2 cats. Our house is moderately sized, with room for playing and relaxing. We are attentive to feeding schedules and potty breaks.

“Kendra is fantastic. She dropped in on my cat daily for a week. Photo and brief report every day. Consistent time for visits. I highly recommend her! Will rebook if I need a cat sitter again.”


“Markie was very responsive, attentive and very sweet! She helped my family out last minute and took care of our dogs and cat very responsibly. I am grateful for her help and would 100% recommend using her. Thank you, Markie!!”
“We are so thankful for the wonderful care our dog, Rudy, and guinea pigs received from Kade! It gave us such peace of mind knowing our pets were well cared for and happy while we were away. Communication was excellent. He gave Rudy lots of attention at each of his drop-ins with walks, playing with toys, etc. He was also attentive to our guinea pigs. We would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”

About: I've been a dog owner most of my life. Friends & family often rely on me to feed, walk & play with their fur babies. I'm retired so I have plenty of time to devote to the wellbeing of your pet. There is always time for belly rubs & ear scratches. I have a dog friendly house - lounging on the couch is okay and sleeping in my bed is encouraged. Snuggle bunnies are welcome here. Your pet will have full run of the house - I don't use crates unless a crate is part of your pets usual routine. I have a large yard that is NOT fenced. All boarders will have to be walked on a leash. It is important that all pets are leash trained.
“Kaylah is great! This was my first booking with her and I found her to be kind, reliable and attentive to detail. She was also very flexible when I had some unexpected changes to my schedule, which I appreciated. I am new to the area and have some travel coming up in the future - it's a relief to know that someone like Kaylah is nearby to take care of my kitties while I am away.”

“Sandy took such good care of our puppy. Made sure to update and called with any concerns. She even did more than what we asked!!! We will definitely use her again!”


“Katrena was very professional. She provided detailed and timely updates while caring for my cat Sophia. I would recommend her services and will definitely contact her for any future pet sitting needs.”

About: I have trained my pets well, I will care and make sure they get the things they need. I want to leave your best friends in the best hands. I have random school hours near my home. I am available mostly evenings and weekends and even most mornings I can check on the animals. We have a dog that could keep your animal company, we also have done up basement if your pet prefers to be alone. We have an open back yard, so we'll just keep a leash on the pet when outside.
