“Leigh's care for our senior cat, Diesel, was truly remarkable! She is an absolute gem! During our vacation, she provided 7 days of outstanding care for our 18-year-old senior cat, Diesel. The level of communication was excellent! Leigh kept us updated multiple times a day about Diesel's well-being. Coming home to a spotless house after a long day of travel was the perfect ending to vacation. She went above and beyond in caring for Diesel and our home and exceeded all expectations. We are deeply grateful to have found Leigh; she's far more than a pet sitter to us—she's a remarkable human who provided the best care possible for Diesel.”


“Kimberly was so good with our little cat! She was so kind and took great care of our home and fur baby! She even gave our cat who doesn’t isn’t good with medication her meds twice a day and sent us pics of our baby while we were on vacation! Will absolutely be booking with her again!”


About: Having experience in pet care has been incredibly fulfilling, and I'm eager to continue providing compassionate and attentive care to animals. My background includes feeding, grooming, and ensuring the well-being of various pets. I'm passionate about creating a safe and nurturing environment for animals and look forward to expanding my experience in pet care. I'm excited to offer pet-sitting services after 5 PM on weekdays and anytime on weekends, complementing my full-time job. With a passion for animals and a commitment to their well-being, I'll provide attentive care, ensuring your pets are happy and safe while you're away. I have a friendly French-American bulldog mix who gets along great with other dogs! He was kennel trained until he turned one, and now he enjoys free roam of my home while I'm at work. When I'm home, he has full access to the furniture, and when I am away he is limited to the living room and kitchen area. I feed him twice a day at set times to maintain a routine. While I don't have a fenced yard, I have a lead right outside my back door where I spend hours playing with him. I'm happy to purchase another lead for your furry friends! When caring for pets in my clients' homes, my dog stays with my boyfriend to ensure there are no boundary issues.

“Abby was amazing! She provided so many updates and pictures. She is by far the best pet sitter I have had. Would definitely recommend her to anyone that wants someone who cares for your animals like they are her own!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for many years from family pets, neighbors dogs, dogs of friends, and living with my roommates dog for almost 3 years. I have always been hands-on and very engaging with all dogs I meet. I have learned many important skills involved in puppy training, differing pet routines and needs, positive reinforcement, and how to keep each and every dog comfortable and happy. I prioritize consistent care and reliability, so you can feel confident that your dog is in good hands. I currently have an internship with a very flexible schedule, so I will have plenty of time focused towards availability and care for your pets. If needed I will pursue another part-time job to provide me with a livable income, but I will continue to communicate changes in my schedule availability. Whether I am caring for pets in my home or in my client’s home, I focus on creating a calm, safe, and fun environment. I learn each pet’s routine include mealtimes, medications, walks, and any other needs the dog may need. I make sure each puppy is given the proper attention they need with positive interactions, any needed space, and I am very adaptable to each dog’s personality. I also prioritize cleanliness in every client’s home and use proper communication with clients to satisfy their needs along with their pets’ needs.

About: I genuinely love animals and treat every pet like they’re my own. I have experience with both playful puppies and older dogs who need a slower pace. I’m super reliable, great with routines, and always send pics so you know your pet is happy and safe! Pet care fits perfectly into my routine! I have a flexible schedule, so I’m able to give pets the time, attention, and play they need throughout the day. Whether it’s walks, feeding, or just hanging out, I love making it part of my day. In my home, pets get a comfy, safe space with lots of love, playtime, and chill time. I follow their routine and make sure they feel right at home. At a client’s house, I respect their space, keep things clean, and stick to whatever schedule or rules the pet is used to—walks, feedings, meds, whatever they need!

About: I’ve owned and taken care of pets for years! I would love to take the weight off of your shoulders and help you with you pets!

“Chad took great care of our pup (and our house) during our vacation. We have a high energy pup, and he gave her the attention she needs and provided us with daily updates. It's obvious he has a real love for dog. I would definitely call on him against the next time we need a sitter.”


“Betty was absolutely fabulous with our dog Lexi. From our initial meet and greet, Betty made both Lexi and I at ease and comfortable with our first pet sitting experience. We will definitely use her again! She is just wonderful!”

Leighan G.
“When it comes to animals and just in general, Leighan is the most caring and affectionate person I have ever met. For as long as I’ve known her she has always put animals first. She is the type of person to stop in the middle of a road if there is a stray dog to see if it’s alright. Leighan would be the best choice to walk your dog. She would take care of your dog better than she takes care of herself.”
