“Emma took perfect care of our cats, dogs and ducks for a week. Great communication and plenty of pictures for us while we were away. And our house was just as we left it. We could not recommend her more, and will be hopefully requesting her to sit for us again. Thank you, Emma!”
“We love having Victoria watch Lucy! This time we had her house sit and watch Lucy for 2 weeks. I wasn’t worried at all because I knew Lucy was in good hands. There were no issues and when we returned our house looked great and Lucy was a happy girl. I will be asking Victoria to watch Lucy in the future.”
About: I have been dog and cat sitting for six years, and have had in home pets my whole life! I have experience with senior pets and am happy to help with any mobility needs. I am open to caring for puppies and kittens, but they must be potty trained. I work 8am-4pm and can take a lunch break to let pets out as needed! Happy to spend the night with a pet, or just pop for a bathroom break! I am not able to care for pets at my house at this time, however I am happy to spend the night somewhere else if need be (after being able to visit with the pet parents present). I am also happy to walk or play with pets to get them some exercise!

About: Hi! I’m a passionate and experienced pet sitter with over 5 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and other furry companions. Growing up, I was lucky to share my home with three amazing dogs and two cats, which sparked my lifelong love for animals. Over the years, I’ve developed a deep understanding of pet behavior, needs, and personalities—whether it’s a playful pup or a senior dog who needs a little extra care. Pet sitting isn’t just a job for me—it’s something I truly enjoy. I take pride in making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while their humans are away. Whether it's daily walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping your dog company, I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. Pet care is a natural and consistent part of my daily and weekly routine. Whether I'm actively dog sitting or not, I make time every day to stay engaged with animals—whether that’s walking neighborhood dogs, volunteering, or checking in on pets for friends and family. When I do have a pet-sitting job, I plan my schedule around the needs of the pets in my care, making sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I prioritize sticking to each pet’s routine to help them feel secure and happy. This might include morning walks, midday playtime, evening feedings, and some extra cuddle time before bed. For me, pet care isn’t an add-on to my life—it’s something I truly enjoy and look forward to as part of my everyday rhythm.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats for my family and friends for a few years now. They trust me to house sit as well as tend to and feed their animals. I am currently working part time, so I have plenty of wiggle room to take care of your animals! Overnight stays are also not an issue! Even with a fenced in back yard, I will keep your dogs company! I will always assess the needs and safety concerns for each individual home.
About: I’ve had many different pets in my life including dogs, cats, bunnies, hamsters, hedgehogs and tortoises which I’ve helped take care of. I’ve done pet sitting for many of my family members and friends. I’m in college with a pre-vet focus and love all animals. I also have experience shadowing doctors and working in the vet-med field. I would love to take care of your pets while you’re away. I usually work an 8 hour shift 3 days a week from 2-10 but a willing to walk and exercise the dog before and after work. I also shadow at the vets office Monday mending and Tuesday evening for a few hours. I love walking the dogs and am meticulous about following the owner’s instructions. I love to send pictures and will take the dog to the park or other adventures if approved by the owner.
About: I've never owned a dog but I've always been around family dogs and have given basic dog care over the years. Including walking and dog sitting. I'm currently not working so I have plenty of time to attend to your pets needs. My schedule is very flexible and I'm sure we could find a fit. I currently only offer in client home sitting. I will follow guidelines set by the pet parents in regards to walks and feeding times, etc.
“Audrey did a great job taking car of Nico, as always! We’ve been fortunate enough to have her watch Nico over the years and would highly recommend whether that’s for overnights or just to hang for a few hours.”
“This is our first experience with Vonda. Our longtime dog sitter unexpectedly moved out of town for a new job, and we needed to find a new sitter quickly. We contacted Vonda and she was available to meet with us the same day – and we booked her the next day. Vonda responded to any questions or requests we sent her way during our travels. We are very happy with the excellent care Vonda provided for our fur baby and for our home while we were away... We recommend Vonda and hope to use her services again should the need arise.”
About: Hi! My name is Alicia. I am a Licenced Veterinary Techician, and graduated from IMBC. I have two cats and two jumping spiders currently. I was a full-time LVT at NEAH, but left recently due to compassion fatigue. I have experience with exotics as I used to own rats, a fire skink, and have cared for bearded dragons in the past. I would like to get to know you before coming into your home and caring for your pets. I think establishing trust between each other is an important step to becoming a valued pet sitter. I’m very excited to meet you and your little companions! I am currently working part time doing odd jobs and would love to add this to my routine! I have so much love for animals!

About: I have had several pet dogs over the course of more than 10 years. I've loved dogs since I was little, and I have lots of experience living with and caring for them. I currently have a very energetic (and slightly mischevious) rescue dog at home! I just graduated High School, and I will only be working part time over the summer, so I will have plenty of times when I will be available! After the end of May, I will be free any days of the week, and I can work out whatever times of day work for you! I am responsible and conscientious, and I will make sure that all of your dogs needs are met! I have personally owned and cared for several different kinds of dogs, each with their own quirks. I have a good understanding of dog's behavior, and how important them being safe and getting the proper attention is!

Monica C.
“Monica and I bonded over a cat with special needs--a daily responsibility, which Monica embraced with gusto. Meantime, she was not just accommodating but encouraging her other cats' individual personalities. In other words, she gets two very important things. First, the key to good critter health and happiness lies in the everyday details, and she is dedicated to fulfilling them every single time. Second, enrichment is everything--and also most of the fun for all involved.”
