Hannah did amazing watching my fur babies for me while I was out of town! She made sure to give my spoiled cat and dog all the treats, cuddles, and play time they needed and kept me up to date with pictures/videos. Highly recommend (:

About: I’ve spent my whole life surrounded by animals — cats, dogs, reptiles, rodents, and even livestock. Over the last year, I’ve been the go‑to caretaker for my friend Tobie’s cat, and I regularly help my friend Sara with her livestock, so I’m comfortable with everything from feeding routines to handling bigger animals. Since it’s summertime and my college classes are online, my schedule is very open and flexible. I’m available throughout the day for drop‑ins, check‑ins, and consistent care. I also help my friend Sara with her livestock and household pets about once a week, so animal care is already part of my weekly routine. I live in a dorm and do not keep pets in my space, so I offer drop‑in care exclusively. My home environment is clean and structured, and I maintain regular animal‑care experience by helping my friend Sara with her livestock and pets weekly. This keeps me confident and capable with a wide range of care tasks.

Kandy was great! She was prompt, responsive, and did a great job of keeping us informed while we were gone. We came home to a happy dog and a clean house. Thanks so much, Kandy!

Tracey was so kind to help out with my stray kitty boy over the holidays!! She kept me updated with pictures and videos which really eased my mind. My boy seemed so content with her right away that I knew I had nothing to worry about. Tracey definitely has a connection with animals and seems to be an animal whisperer… I would highly recommend her!

We couldn’t be happier with the care our three dogs received! From the moment we left, she kept us updated with regular messages and adorable photos that gave us total peace of mind. It was so clear she treated them not just as clients, but as her own — they were loved, comfortable, and happy the entire time. We will absolutely be booking again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who truly goes above and beyond!

About: I don’t just watch dogs—I get to know them. Whether it’s helping puppies learn the ropes or giving senior pups slow, cozy care, I tailor every visit to what your dog actually needs. I’m patient, upbeat, and love turning training moments into fun games. I pay close attention to each dog’s unique needs, energy level, and personality—because great care isn’t one-size-fits-all. And yes, I’m the sitter who celebrates every tail wag like it’s an achievement. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I work full time Monday–Friday from 8–4, but I’m available for morning, evening, and weekend visits. I also have holidays and summers off, which gives me plenty of flexible time for daytime walks, drop-ins, and longer stays when needed. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I maintain a safe, structured environment by following your pet’s routine exactly as you outline it. In your home, I respect your space, secure doors and gates, and keep all food, treats, and cleaning supplies out of reach. I monitor pets closely during walks and use sturdy leashes and proper equipment. Communication is key, so I provide regular updates and photos to give you peace of mind.

About: I've been taking care of so many animal friends since high school. My first job was working for a veterinarian. I was the kennel caretaker, making sure everyone was fed and walked (for dogs) and played with and such. The "cat room" was always my favorite. I would make sure the kitties would all get attention. It was the highlight of my shift. And I continue to bring joy to the kitties and puppers (as well as myself) through my pet-sitting duties. Now that I am back in Fairmont, I am free with a decent amount of notice for most pet care needs. My schedule is extremely open and flexible--I just need enough time to secure transportation. At home, I have a sweet and needy tabby named Billy Porterhouse. He is very easy and likes to sleep and eat treats and "patrol" the house. My parents' dog Madde is a black lab who puts up with Billy, as best as she can. I have been a trusted sitter for my close friends back in NYC and have gotten close with their dogs and cats. Always respectful of their space and am trusted with multiple keys and key codes, as well as feeding and medication schedules.

Lexi did a great job with my boys. They were healthy and happy upon my return. She provided updates when possible since I had limited cell service. I have already booked a second visit.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs my whole life and have always had a passion for doing so. No task is too big or too small for me when it comes to giving your pet the best care it can have. Whether they be young or old, big or small, or somewhere in between I know I care provide the best care for your dog. I have much experience with dogs in different health conditions as well. There is no accommodation I can’t meet and nothing that will stop me from giving your furry family member anything it needs. At the moment, I am on summer break from college so I have a very open schedule to help care for your pet and provide it anything it needs, no matter the time or day. I have a large open yard, in a quiet part of town that your pet can run around and play in. I also have two dogs of my own that are very friendly and would love to keep you pet company. I have experience in making accommodations for their diet and I can also help give them any sort of medication they might need. While caring for dogs in other homes I will respect the boundaries you have given to me and your furry family member.

About: I’ve been taking care of all kinds of animals for the past 8 years, and I’m also a cat owner myself. I really enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I work full-time but have gaps in my day where I can check on your fur babies and make sure they are thriving in their home. I can pick up on behavior quickly and would love to take care of them in an environment they know and already love. I would love to meet them ahead of time to establish trust.

About: Though I do not have previous pet experience, I have grown up with dogs of my own and will ensure that your furry friends receive the care that I provide my own. I will treat each dog as part of my family! I currently work Monday-Thursday until around 4:00pm, so I could not help until the evening. I am flexible outside of that time and free most every weekend. My dog stays inside in a lovely air conditioned home. He is crate trained and I am able to crate train your dog as well. I walk my pup 2 miles most days.

Hannah did absolutely amazing with my 3 high energy dogs I have a 2 golden retriever, 1 Australian Shepherd and a 5 month old labradoodle. Not only did she do amazing, she had a 6 hour notice of when I needed her initially. So I definitely recommend Hannah and I will continue to utilize Hannah when I need a dog sitter!
