“Dawn was great!! My pets were obviously very well cared for :) My pup has some special needs and she was on top of it and sent plenty of updates and pics to ease my mind as this was the first time we’ve left our dog with anyone since she had her amputation back in September. I didn’t worry about a thing and was able to enjoy a long weekend away knowing my pup was well attended to. Will definitely use Dawn again :)”

About: I started out fostering dogs of all ages and medical issues for a few years before adopting our own 2 dogs. I’m comfortable with any sized dog. We have a large fenced in back yard. One of our dogs is older, so I am familiar with senior dog care. I am comfortable giving any sorts of medications needed for any age. We did go through dog training with our 2 dogs when they were younger, so can continue working on basic dog training skills with your dog if that is something you are working on. I also have experience with dogs with tick-borne diseases as one of ours has had a couple bouts of it. We walk our dogs on a 1.5 mile walk almost every day and give them lots of time in the fenced in backyard! We can adapt to whatever your typical dog walking/outside time schedule is. We like to spend a lot of time outside and on trails, so if your dog is one who likes trail walks, we are the right fit for you! I stay home with our 2 year old and my husband works from home so someone is pretty much always home. We have a large fenced in backyard. We have 3 levels and keep your dog(s) and our dogs separated as needed. We do have a toddler who loves dogs but also respects their boundaries. If I’m at your house I will follow whatever routine you do for your dogs!

“Rebecca was nothing short of amazing! She took great care of our fear-aggressive dog and new kitten. We were able to go on vacation without a worry of our pets. Highly recommend Rebecca!!!”


4. Faith S.

“We loved having Faith care for our pets in our home, three cats and a dog. Faith had excellent communication throughout and sent us cute videos of our little fur babies. Our dog can be a bit high maintenance and has some anxiety and she did great with Faith watching over her. I would highly recommend Faith!”


5. Antonio & Janay W.
“Antonio was an excellent match for our Dog Fritzie. Antonio was very attentive & made sure Fritzie enjoyed all of his walks. We will be using Antonio again very soon. We highly recommend Antonio for your “Furry Friends” needs.”

7. Noreen T.
About: I have worked as an animal sitter since graduating from college in 2010. We lost our two adopted dogs this year at the ripe old ages of 17 and 14 and have not brought any new indoor pets into our home. I have volunteered with animals and worked in a veterinary setting with large animals (horses mostly!) I graduated with a degree in animal sciences. I am well equipped for special needs dogs with a large dog stroller and wheelchair! I work outside of the home 4 days a week and am home Friday through Sunday to spend as much time with your pet as they need! I love to run, so if you have a high-energy dog, then reach out to me! We can wear each other out. Our home is dog friendly with a large fenced in yard with indoor access for dogs that prefer to make their own indoor/outdoor schedule. We love to have pups and cats snuggle on the couch with us or play in our large yard. We have farm animals, lots of new smells and places to explore!

“Gabrielle was a great sitter! She sent tons of photos and was very responsive! You could really tell that she liked my cat and I felt safe leaving him in her hands!”


9. Kimberly A.
About: Animals have always been a part of my life. I currently have a playful Russian Blue cat and have cared for both dogs and cats for over a decade. What sets me apart is my attention to detail, calm demeanor, and ability to tune into an animal's needs—whether it's a high-energy puppy, a shy rescue, or a senior pet needing gentle care. I have experience with reinforcing training with consistency and love. I work remotely and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide reliable and consistent care throughout the day. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I make sure animals receive attention, play, and walks at regular intervals. I’m committed to keeping pets comfortable and cared for, whether it’s a one-time visit or regular companionship. I treat every home and pet with respect, care, and professionalism. I follow all instructions carefully, keep pets’ environments clean and safe, and always ensure gates, doors, and crates are secure. Whether in your home or mine, I create a calm, low-stress environment where pets feel safe, loved, and well-cared for. I communicate clearly and provide updates so pet parents feel confident and informed.


10. Trie M.

“Trie was absolutely amazing and went above and beyond for my pup!”


11. Isabelle S.
“Isabelle is a fantastic pet caregiver! As a devoted pet owner herself, she understands the love and attention that animals need. She is responsible, responsive, and truly cares for every pet as if they were her own. Isabelle ensures they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter!”


12. Shauna B.
“Shauna is a big lover of Dogs… she was amazing to our family pets growing up and now as an adult, is so good with our current dogs. She has worked for a kennel during the day where she would constantly send us pics with the dogs she was caring for. I have no doubt you would love her and so would your pets.”


13. Scout E.
“Scout watches our dog every time we go out of town during the week and weekends. She always gives our girl all the running and playing until she drops, and even stops in for a starbucks pup cup on occasion. We always look forward to pictures and video updates. We know our dog is well cared for and loved.”


14. Jennifer N.
About: I have four dogs: two are small and two are medium sized, one of them is also deaf. I have spent my whole life around dogs. I would provide care and attention to your dog or dogs just like I would provide to my own. I’m currently working full time, so I only have availability evenings and weekends. I am flexible for early mornings or late nights on the weekends. If coming to my house, I have a fenced in yard and four dogs that would love to make new friends! I have 2 crates if needed as well. I also have a play pen for a puppy if needed. I am more than willing to travel to you though as I understand how important it can be to keep your fur baby or babies in their own environment.


15. Amanda H.


“Excellent communication before and during her stay. We recently moved to the area and didn't realize how much information our past sitter "just knew" Amanda asked questions to get answers to instructions I didn't think to give. Her attention to detail is the foundation that the exceptional care she provided our crew on. Couldn't be happier with her service and care.”


16. Amber F.
About: Iv had pets my whole life and have pet sat for friends and family many times in the past. I live on the second floor so it might be hard for senior dogs unless they don’t mind being carried, I’m relatively strong so heavier pets won’t be a problem, I can provide puppy pads for puppies and have a large litter box that is sanitized between uses. I am not currently working so I have all the extra time in the world, My children are at school for 8 hours of the day so if your pet(s) prefer no kids the morning/afternoon would be best for you, they’re older and calm kids who love pets so if your pet is ok with kids they’ll get along great. I have an unfenced yard but not many neighbors, I have a fenced in balcony and lots of trails for walking dogs if that’s what they would like to do.


17. Paul C.
“Paul would make a great pet sitter he is great with and the animals in our complex, kind and gentle and always go above and beyond he walks a neighbors dog in our complex. He is for sure an animal lover, he has 2 cats and a dog that are very spoiled.”

“Good morning, Felisha has taken care of my cats and dogs numerous times while I am away on vacation. She has always done an excellent job and my pets have always liked her Thank you, Darlene Jewell”


19. Sierra E.
