“David is a fantastic sitter—reliable, conscientious, and thoughtful! He even went out of his way to water our potted plants, which was such a kind and helpful gesture. Highly recommend!”
“Lauren was very pleasant when I met her and I knew she was the right person to take care of my animals. I can tell by the pictures she takes she is so caring and loving with my dogs. I would recommend Lauren and will rebook with her.”
“Haileigh was awesome. My cat got along well with her and she took care of him per my instructions. I could relax while on vacation, knowing she was playing and feeding him.”
“Another great experience! Alyssa always takes such awesome care of our cats and provides us with thorough updates and pictures at each visit. We never like having to leave our cats but she makes the experience stress free!”
“Toni was such a great match for the drop in services I needed for my 2 cats. She went above and beyond to stay and play with my boys and sent so many great photos and videos. I felt at ease knowing they were taken care of and given attention while I was away. I look forward to having Toni help out again!”
“Jackie was very nice, came to meet me before she started and was here when expected. She had to clean up more than her fair share of pee with a new puppy and a jealous brother dog. Thanks Jackie for coming on short notice as well!!”
About: I'm an experienced veterinary nurse with over 30 years, taking care of all kinds of pets. I am currently a surgical nurse and I specialize in senior care, diabetics, post surgical care and medical boarding. When your pet needs extra special care, call me! I work full time Tues, Wed, Thurs, which leaves me free to pet sit Fri, Sat, Sun & Mon. Perfect for those long weekend plans! I have a large, safe, fenced in yard for your dog to play. I have four friendly dogs and a handful of house cats to keep your pet company.
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life. The first dog I called mine was a miniature schnauzer named Poca. I got her when I was 5. I have had many dogs over the years, as well as cats, birds, guinea pigs, hamsters, reptiles, and other types of pets. I have worked at animal shelters for months of my life. I would feed animals, give them water, take them outside, help administer medicine, watch them in the yards, and just generally love on them. I also have experience working with wild animals at zoos. I have open availability for pet care services, as my main source of income is gig economy work. I am flexible, so no matter what you need, I can likely make it work. I make sure your pets always have access to fresh water, and depending on how your pets are usually fed, I can feed them on a schedule or set up free-feeding. I will also make sure they get plenty of attention.
About: I’ve loved all animals ever since I was a kid. I’ve wanted a dog my whole life and when I finally got one, I took care of it like it was my own kid no matter what dog you have I will treat it like my own. I am good with a lot of dogs and am willing to do what it takes to gain your animals trust so they can have a good time. I’m currently working in the mornings 8-12am only so my afternoons are completely free and night time so you can message me and I can reply very quickly. I have leashes and 2 crates so if needed they can go in the crates. I have a long rope in my backyard dogs can run around when attached to it. Nice area for them to go to the bathroom, very grassy and sunny.
About: Hi! I’m a full-time Veterinary Technician with a passion for animal care both in and out of the clinic. I have hands-on experience working with pets of all sizes, breeds, and personalities, I bring medical knowledge, attention to detail, and genuine compassion to every pet-sitting job. Whether your pet needs extra care, medication, or just a loving presence while you’re away, you can trust that they’ll be in safe, capable hands. I treat every pet like family—because they are. 🐾 As a full-time veterinary technician, I have a unique advantage when it comes to pet care. My schedule allows me the flexibility to either bring certain pets with me (when appropriate and permitted) or to stop in during my shift for walks, feeding, or medication visits. Because I’m close by and experienced in managing time around animal care, I’m able to check in on pets regularly and ensure they stay on their routine. I’m fully committed to providing dependable, attentive care, even on workdays. I respect your home and your pet’s routine. I follow all instructions carefully. From feeding and walks to playtime and medication. I provide updates and photos to give you peace of mind while you’re away. My veterinary background allows me to notice and respond quickly to any changes in behavior or health, so your pet is always in caring and capable hands.
“Emily came daily to feed my cat Link while I was away on vacation. Although Link is usually pretty elusive - he came around at least a few days to greet her. She took care of all his needs and sent us daily updates. We will totally reach out to her again!”
About: I have been helping care for our dogs my entire life but I’m really only counting since I was 10. I’m not sure if I would count earlier as helping lol. I would dog sit for family, friends, and coworkers too. I always make sure they are happy and feed. Along with making sure all their energy is out too. I will follow all food instructions that they have. I have given dogs pills before if they require them. I have limited experience with both elderly dogs and puppies, however I am willing to learn what they will need from me. I do work full time but I have an hour lunch where I can run back to let them out. I work from 8-4 so if they don’t need to be let out during the day I will let them out immediately once I get back. I do not do much on the weekends so weekends will be spent with furry friends. I will care for your pet in your home and make it as close as to their routine as possible. I have walked dogs on a leash and have good control. If they do not eat human food they will not be given human food. I always stick to the portions that I am told when feeding them too. If I have a concern about one of the furry friends I will contact you immediately to see what you would like me to do.
“Saul was excellent, very communicative and went the extra mile. We’re new in town and I felt very safe and comfortable that our pets were being well cared for while we were away for the holidays. Don’t hesitate to book him!”
About: Hi there! I’m Alyssa, an animal lover with a passion for giving pets the care and attention they deserve. Whether your dog loves to play fetch, snuggle on the couch, or go for long walks, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and entertained while you're away. I’ve got experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I can’t wait to meet your furry friend! Rest easy knowing your pet is in good hands, I'll treat them like family! I am a Paraprofessional who is home for the summer break! Since I am home, I am flexible and can fit to your scheduling needs! At our home, we prioritize safety, trust, and creating a comfortable environment for every pet. We have one dog, Obi, and one cat, both of whom are used to having visitors. Obi is always excited to meet new friends and loves playtime, while our cat is more independent and enjoys keeping to herself, but she’s used to having dogs around. When caring for pets in our home, we ensure walks are safe by always leashing our pup, and we use a lead for supervised outdoor play and potty breaks in the backyard. Obi is crated when we leave the house, ensuring he’s safe and secure. He has access to his food bowl throughout the day, allowing him to graze at his own pace. However, we’re happy to accommodate any special feeding routines or requests to ensure your pet feels comfortable and well cared for.

“Jasper is a responsible person who has a lot of knowledge and experience with animals - not just dogs and cats. Jasper has had interactions with hawks/falcons and pet birds as well as parrots and other birds. Jasper has experience working in animal shelters and worked at a zoo in Georgia as well. I have know Jasper for a few years and have seen them interacting with animals. Very respectful of the animals needs and also just loves animals and the animals under their care are well taken care of. I highly recommend Jasper for animal sitting, walking, vacation care, etc. In addition, Jasper is an honest person and has been in and out of property we own - but do not live in - and can be trusted. The other think commendable about Jasper is that they are responsible and arrive on time and are a great worker. We care for abandoned cats that Jasper is involved with and the cats love Jasper. I cannot say enough nice things about Jasper.”
