“Alicia was wonderful with our pups. We have used her twice and could tell that our dogs enjoyed their time with her in our home. We will be calling on her again for sure!”



“Donna (and her sweet husband John) iss everything the reviews said! They took care of our 5 dogs like their own babies and were amazing house sitters too! They will definitely be our go-to sitters from now on!”


“Emily went over and beyond our expectations with our Remington. Updates and pictures throughout the weekend. Remington bonded with Emily very quickly and even slept with Emily! Would use her again for sure. Emily sent us a bonus surprise. A computation of all the pictures she took of our baby. Brought tears to me eyes as my girl is greying and I now have a beautiful video of her. Thank you Emily!!”


“Caroline is a great pet sitter! She took care of our 2 dogs (one who is a coonhound who is sweet but not the easiest temperament!), our indoor/ outdoor cat and our chickens, goats and barn cats. It’s hard for us to leave our farm for vacation but she was in top of it! She watered my front porch flowers and kept them alive during a heat wave. The house was in immaculate condition and all the pets were in good spirits. I can highly recommend her taking exceptional care of your animals and house!”


About: What sets me apart is my calm, patient approach and genuine love for animals. I specialize in overnight care, ensuring pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I'm experienced with senior pets who need extra attention and gentle care, as well as energetic puppies that require structured routines and basic training reinforcement. Whether it’s administering medication, sticking to special diets, or just offering extra cuddles, I tailor my care to meet each pet’s unique needs. You can rest easy knowing your pet is in caring, capable hands. Pet care is a big part of my daily routine, and I make it a priority in my schedule. I’m available for overnight stays during the week and weekends, and I plan my days around the pets I care for—whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or medication. I maintain a calm, consistent environment to help pets feel secure, and I give updates regularly so you know how your pet is doing. I’m flexible and can adjust to meet your pet’s usual routine to keep them happy and stress-free. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. When caring for pets in your home, I create a calm, secure, and familiar environment by following your routines closely—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. I’m always mindful of safety, keeping doors, gates, and potential hazards in check, and I never leave pets unattended in unsafe situations. I provide regular updates with photos and messages, so you can feel confident and connected while you're away. Building trust—with both you and your pet—is at the heart of how I care.

About: I’ve dealt with all sorts of animals from tiny chihuahuas to Great Danes. I have volunteered at shelters and exotic rescues in the past. I’m used to high maintence and balancing very different pet personalities to make sure the home stay stable and comforting. I am an incoming college freshman. So for now almost all day everyday is free but even when school starts most of my evenings and mornings will still be available! I prioritize creating a safe environment for all pets in my care. Their home is their safe space I will stick to your dogs schedule as best as possible. I will treat your pet and your home with the upmost integrity and send updates via photos, text, or call as often as you need/want.

About: With over six years of hands-on experience in animal care, I bring a deep understanding of a wide range of animals, including dogs, cats, horses, ducks, chickens, and goats. What sets me apart is not just my experience, but the level of care, patience, and attentiveness I provide to every animal I work with. I’m confident handling pets of all ages and temperaments, and I have experience with both high-energy puppies and senior animals that need extra care and gentleness. I’m also comfortable managing feeding routines, administering basic medications, and recognizing early signs of illness or discomfort. Whether it’s helping a puppy learn positive behaviors or ensuring a senior pet is comfortable and happy, I tailor my approach to each animal’s unique needs. Animals aren’t just a job to me — they’re a passion. I treat every pet like my own, and I work hard to make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for in my presence. I am available for drop ins and dog walks everyday but Sunday. I have a very flexible schedule and can work around your schedule as well. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my top priority is creating a safe, loving, and stress-free environment tailored to each animal’s needs and routine. In my home, I make sure pets have a calm, clean space to relax, play, and feel secure. I follow their usual schedule as closely as possible—this includes feeding times, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions like medications or crate training. I also make sure they get plenty of attention, affection, and exercise. In a client’s home, I respect both the pet’s routine and the household rules. I keep things consistent by maintaining the pet’s feeding, potty, walk, and play schedules just as their owners do. I also provide updates and photos to help clients feel connected and reassured while they’re away. I treat every home with care and professionalism, and every animal like they’re part of my own family. My goal is always to keep pets happy, healthy, and comfortable—wherever they are.

“Jesse is great with our 3 dogs. We have an older dog who he's even had to carry up and down stairs. He's had great communication with us and left the house clean and the dogs are very happy!”


“Keri stayed in my home with my Golden Retriever for several days. She was very active with him, taking him to dog parks and spending quality time with him. She sent great pictures and videos, which helped me to know that he was happy and in good hands, and I could relax and enjoy my trip! My dog had to have medication each day and Keri was excellent with that, as well. Not only was Keri an excellent caretaker and entertainer of my dog, she was a very conscientious and courteous houseguest! She has a fabulous personality, is kind and thoughtful, and great with my dog, who is needy and demanding. I highly recommend Keri!”


“Kathleen was awesome. She came at the time requested. She showed great interest in our dog from the moment she walked in the door. During her stay she stayed in touch with us and provided pictures. We will definitely book again”


“Hannah was so amazing with my dog and cat! She helped out last minute and was so flexible. I would highly recommend her! She made me feel comfortable leaving them with her and I know they loved her so much!”


About: I got my dog when I was 13 and she was the best thing that happened to me. She was the most loving and caring dog I ever met but lost her to a serious illness and I just love to give out my heart to animals and would love to spend some time with your animals. I am a stay at home mom and the moment. Son is five and in kindergarten and he loves animals just as much as I do but because I’m not completely over losing my dog I haven’t been able to get him a dog for himself. I’m home and have a dog park right now the road from me so keeping dogs a breeze. I always have an eye on the animals. Never feed food other then the kind given. Nothing in the rooms that they would stay in that could hurt them.

About: Our house was like a zoo growing up, so I've always been around a wide range of animals, from dogs, cats, horses, cows, you name it! For that reason, I have loads of experience with animals. Yet, other than my own animals I have only been sitting as needed for family or neighbors. I’m currently working a part time job while going to school. I do have breaks in between that should give me time to work around schedules! I am willing to do whatever is needed for your pets. I can walk, feed, water, clean, stay over and have as many play dates as you ask.

Ella L.
“Ella has been my bestfriend for 3 years and if there's one thing i know, it's that she will always care for any animal she finds. She has always taken in cats or dogs in need, or ones she's found on the road. If she sees an animal that needs help, there's no stopping her. She even cares for her fish like they are bestfriends that will grow old together. She absolutely loves pets and almost any moment i see her with an animal, she's cuddled up with it and ready for bed. she is such a gentle human when it comes to pets, especially dogs and cats with anxiety. i've never seen anyone's pet dislike her, she truly is amazing with animals.”
