“Theresa is an outstanding dog sitter. The dogs love her so much, and she is wonderful interacting with them. She even tidied up the main floor of our house, which is above and beyond. She will definitely be my future number one choice.”

About: I've been taking care of dogs my entire life. My father bred labradors, and I've been sitting for my grandparents for the last 15 or so years. I recently started sitting for a friend and have decided to make it a steady source of income I'm an artist that wants to use dog sitting and walking to have a steady flexible income that allows me to be creative in my personal life. Our pitbull Stella gets the best that we can provide her. As a genuine dog lover, I will provide the best care that is in my ability to provide in your home.

“Taylor was very loving towards my girls and communicated very well while she stayed with my girls! 3 dogs can be overwhelming but she embraced it and I came home to happy girls after my trip!”


“Lark stayed for a week at our home and was so caring of our furry baby Kevin. Kevin's not always predictable and they made good friends with loving belly rubs, etc. She shared pictured throughout the week. We will definitely be calling her back to see if she can stay again when we plan our next trip! Thank you so very much!”


“Madison did an excellent job taking care of our two dogs. She even went the extra mile and took one to the vet as soon as she could when he got sick. House was left in great shape and she cleaned up very well. Wouldn't hesitate to ask her to watch our dogs again.”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 12 years old. I can play with them, pick up after them, bathe them and make sure they’re happy and well fed. And I can take the dog on short or long walks and make sure they’re happy and safe. Also for house sitting I’ll make sure the house is clean and any messes the dog makes is cleaned up as well I’m a student at an online university, but I am taking a break from perusing my BS in forensic accounting. So I have plenty of time to watch your pets. I have two dogs that I take care of with my family. And they are well cared for and I play with them throughout the day and feed them when they need to be fed.

“So Diane is absolutely the best dog sitter we have ever had. Our elderly dog (Puddles) ended up having some medical issues while Diane was taking care of her, and Diane did an outstanding job taking care of our Puddles during this time. Puddles is doing fine and we truly appreciate Diane keeping Puddles. We highly recommend Diane taking care of your pets. She is someone you can trust! Thanks again.”


“Paige was an absolutely wonderful dog sitter/ dog walker for our dog Ozzy! She was very communicative and flexible and sent lots of pics which I just loved. Will definitely go with Paige again. Just a sweet, conscientious, trustworthy person overall 😍”

She even went avoided and beyond and bought extra food for the turtles as they had run out. Ashley is definitely a reliable and great choice!!!”


About: Growing up, I developed a profound appreciation for a variety of pets, many of which I have cherished and lovingly cared for over the years. For as long as I can remember, I've found true joy in the unwavering companionship of most animals, especially dogs. Most of my pet sitting experiences stem from my own 20+ year journey as a pet owner, but I’ve also gained invaluable insights into relationship-based, obedience, and positive reinforcement training methods for dogs of all sizes. Though I have a full-time job, my workplace is just a short ten-minute drive from my home, allowing me the flexibility to attend to your pets' needs at a moment’s notice. My heartfelt promise as a pet sitter is to create a safe, happy, and nurturing environment that feels like an extended home, ensuring your pet's needs are met with love and care. My current work schedule typically spans Monday through Friday during regular business hours. While I can’t offer consistent 24/7 care, I do have the flexibility to take short breaks and enjoy lunch at my own pace, which means that any dog I pet sit will always receive attention and care, never going without it for more than 2-3 hours at a time. I care for all pets in a loving, home-based environment where they are treated like part of the family. I have a fully fenced-in backyard that gives them plenty of safe space to play, explore, and relax outside. My home is in a quiet, safe community that's perfect for daily walks and outdoor time. Inside, pets have free roam of the house and are always supervised. I follow each pet's routine as closely as possible to help them feel right at home - and of course, there's no shortage of belly rubs, snuggles, and attention!

“I can not say enough positive things about Samantha! She took care of our two large dogs and one elderly cat while staying at the house. When we returned the house was immaculate and the pets were happy and well taken care of. We enjoyed the pictures she sent. We will be using Samatha again in the future!”


“Katie did a great job with our two puppies. Angel and Buddy were taken care of expertly. Great communication allowed us to have peace of mind while out of town, knowing our dogs were doing well.”


About: As a lifelong dog lover, I have years of experience caring for dogs. I provide attentive, loving, and reliable care tailored to each dog’s needs. I’m a teacher with lots of flexibility in my daily schedule. Pet care is a natural part of my routine. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or cuddles, I enjoy making dogs feel loved and cared for. I prioritize safety and build trust with every pet and owner. I have a huge backyard that is not fully fenced. I’m also familiar with the local dog parks if that’s an option the pet owner is comfortable with.

“Matt had been amazing with watching and caring for my two cats! Truly an animal lover at heart, and my cats know it. Usually they are not good with strangers, but after just a few visits and lots of play sessions, they love him to pieces. Matt was also very attentive with their food schedules and amounts, even though he snuck in a few treats here and there! A perfect pet sitter who will treated my pets like his own family which helped me be at ease when I couldn’t be home. He’s also great at sending photos and videos of them to me to keep my updated! Highly recommend Matt :)!”
