“Jessica did a fantastic job. She was friendly and professional and communicated very well, to include lots of pictures of the dogs throughout the day. We were glad to have her watch our dogs!”
About: I grew up with multiple German Sheppards and mixed breed dogs, so I am well versed in cares in regards to feeding, playing, walking, and bathing for dogs. I have house and pet sat for 2-10 days at a time for friends and family throughout years, as they trusted my abilities to care for their fur babies (chickens and Guinea pigs included). I currently have two kittens and feel comfortable caring for any feline friends, as I have quickly been converted to a cat person as well :) I currently work full time from 8am-4pm Monday-Friday. I am available most weekends and can be available during the evenings after work for a walk or check-in! I will never invite others to your home if I am to come care for your pet. I am a stickler for locking doors and ensuring that there are safely hazards around for pets to get into (ex: dangling curtain draw strings)
“Judy has been hanging out with our three fur babies for about a year now and they love her as much as we do. She’s wonderful with pups with separation anxiety and our our kitty eats comfortably when she’s visiting. You should book her!!!!”
“We went to New York this week and Phineas watched our 2 cats (and our house). He is very friendly, sweet, and was super great with Gus and Abby. Abby is normally shy and hides, but she warmed up to him right away. How wonderful it’s been to go on vacation, especially so far away, and to not have to worry about anything! Phineas will always be our go to when we go away. He’s amazing! 🤩 So grateful we found him! ❤️”
About: I've been pet sitting for a few years now! I grew up with dogs, cats, fish, and hamsters, and they were integral members of our family. I absolutely love meeting and taking care of new pets, and I've gotten pretty good at it over time. I'll take dogs on walks, or to the dog park, dog beach, and give them baths if needed. I'm in between jobs now, so I have a lot of free time! I start work part-time beginning of June 2025, so I'll still have plenty of time to care for pets then as well :) Not able to have the dogs at our house, but I'll gladly care for your pets at your home in whatever fashion works best for you!
“We rebooked Kristen for our cats and she was great with them. This was her second time looking in after them and they didn’t even hide. So glad we were able to book her again. She’s magic!”
About: With years of hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs, I’ve developed a deep love and natural intuition for working with animals of all kinds. I’ve provided pet sitting services both locally and out of state, offering dependable and heartfelt care no matter the location. Whether it’s daily drop-ins, overnight stays, or extended visits, I treat every animal like they’re part of my own family. What sets me apart is my unique connection and understanding of animal behavior, needs, and energy. I don’t just “watch” pets—I build trust and comfort with them, creating a calm and loving environment while their people are away. I share my home with two beloved cats who are not only my companions, but also my familiars. They’ve taught me even more about the special bonds animals create with us when treated with respect, kindness, and consistency. Pets bring joy, peace, and magic into my life—and I aim to return the favor every chance I get. a passionate animal lover with years of experience caring for pets of all kinds. I have a fully fenced-in backyard perfect for safe outdoor play, and I’m just a short walk to a local dog park—and only a quick drive from several amazing dog-friendly beaches! Whether you need someone to host your pup, drop in for check-ins and walks, or stay overnight to keep your home and pets cozy and secure, I’ve got you covered. I always ensure that your pets receive plenty of love, attention, and exercise while you're away. Your pets will be treated like family here! I’m a contract worker by trade, which gives me a highly flexible schedule and the ability to be available throughout most parts of the day. Whether your pet needs morning walks, mid-day check-ins, or evening cuddles, I can easily adapt to their routine and provide consistent care and attention when you need it most. I take great care to create a safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment for every pet I watch. All of the cleaners used in my home are pet-safe, and any plants I keep are non-toxic to animals. I know how important it is to maintain trust and clear communication, so I always keep an open dialogue with pet parents—whether it’s about special routines, dietary needs, medication, or just sharing a cute photo update. Your pet’s well-being and your peace of mind are always my top priorities.
“Jen did a great job with my two pups! A quick visit with some playtime - and made sure everything was as it was supposed to be when she left again! Thank you! We will definitely be calling again!!”
“Taylor took such great care of my cat while I was away for the weekend. Great communication all around and I felt really comfortable with the level of care he received 😊 definitely would recommend!”
About: I have always had a strong passion for all animals of every kind. I grew up taking care of animals as small as hamsters up to cows in the parlor as a part of my daily chores. Once I reached middle school I started volunteering for dog breeders taking care of all the old dogs and caring for the newborn puppies giving shots and creating schedules for them. I also got into the Humane Society taking their animal health course and enrichment class learning how to administer shots, pills, and different ways to train and entertain our fur babies. In high school I went to the Tech Center and did their ag and animal science program where I learned a lot more on healthy diets, quality of life, how to train, as well as vet terminology. I volunteered at Howling Timbers where I cared for domestic, semi-domestic, and no domestic animals of all sorts learning about different animal behaviors and what to look out for, how to handle many challenges, and most importantly how to grow a trusting bond with animals of all sorts of different behavior types and how to get them to trust in me. I now do dog grooming after attending a dog grooming school where I learned how to not only groom, but learned basic vet knowledge and tips to treating, how to work and handle older, aggressive, and anxious dogs. I currently work part time which gives me plenty of time and flexibility for anyone’s needs to be with their loved ones. I have a reliable form of transportation and work short days which also gives the freedom of more time for your pets and also how far I can go! I have spare crates in my home as well as a fenced in backyard which allows for all day access to whatever you pup wants to explore! As for visiting other homes that will mainly depend on the pet parent itself and I always carry extra leashes.
About: Hi, I’m Brooke! I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my entire life and couldn’t imagine a world without them. I currently have a 5-year-old German Shepherd who keeps me on my toes and reminds me every day how special the bond between humans and animals can be. I also have 5 years of experience house sitting in Maui, caring for all kinds of pets—from dogs and cats to bunnies and even fish. Whether it’s energetic pups, shy kitties, or small animals needing gentle care, I treat every pet like they’re part of the family. I’m reliable, communicative, and truly love what I do. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry (or finned!) family members! I currently have full availability and a highly flexible schedule, which allows me to adapt easily to any timing needs, including last-minute or long-term opportunities. I care for pets with attentiveness, love, and consistency, ensuring they feel safe and comfortable. I follow their routines, provide enrichment, exercise, healthy meals, and lots of affection. I adapt to each pet’s unique personality and needs in the client’s, creating a calm, clean, and nurturing environment.
“Zach was amazing! He took great care of our kitties. He sent us good photos, took care of their food/water/litter, and he spent time playing with them! We also noticed he made sure the litter mats stayed clean, which is above and beyond because we haven’t had that with sitters in the past. Thank you so much Zach! We would definitely book him again.”
About: Hi there! I’m Arianna — cat mom, big dog lover, and all-around animal enthusiast. 🐾 I share my home with Samson, my sweet orange tabby, and I’ve also had the joy of loving a German Shepherd — so I know the energy, strength, and affection that comes with larger dogs. Whether it’s a playful giant or a snuggly lap cat, I’m here to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and cared for.

I’ll only be able to come to your house to care for your pets. I also consider my own animals safety along with yours. Sorry for any inconveniences.
About: I’ve always loved dogs and apart from having my own, I’ve been lucky to have experience many others! From puppies to senior dogs who need medicine, I try to do as much as I can to make sure they’re comfortable! I have part time work and classes, so I’m very flexible in when I can walk or watch pets! If I know in advance, it’s pretty easy for me to move things around. I don’t have a dog in my current home, but I offer pretty constant attention to pets no matter what I’m doing. I also make sure to play enough to get them tired out for a good sleep!
About: I have a very open availability and am looking mostly to help with getting the furry friend some exercise while people are busy. I will follow instructions given by pet parents to meet their pets needs. Contact me about help with your furry friend! I'm open to all breeds. I'm pretty open. Let me know when you need a drop in or walk done. Last minute or planned. I will try to be there for your furry friend. I would give them a good play and a lot of attention, check and fill their food/water/litter or for a dog let them outside to do their business. Also I like to visually inspect around the house for any issues.
About: Outside from growing up with dogs and animals of all kinds my whole life, I’ve taken care of multiple friends and family members fur babies since I was a young teenager. And for the past 13 years, I’ve been a career nanny, who has also always had the families animals to care for as well! I have a full time job Monday-Thursday until 6 pm.

About: I have had animals ever since I was a baby, so I am aware of animal behavior and how to care for animals who require specific needs. I have also been apart of a foster program at Heaven Can Wait (HCW) in Muskegon, Mi. and have fostered and have cared for many animals within the program. I have babysat my family’s friends’ animals during their vacations and have been heavily relied on due to my exceptional care and availability.

I live in a quiet suburban neighborhood, and there are a lot of dog parks and nature around me. (trails, etc.) Also, there is more than enough room in the house to make your furry friends comfortable, relaxed and have the ability to run around! I am understanding of other animals’ needs and will be sure to make even the shy and timid feel comfortable and safe under my care. 😇

Arianna K.
“I highly recommend Arianna as a pet sitter. She has had training and experience in pet sitting, and she deeply loves and respects animals. Arianna has been involved in several dog-training classes. Further, she has had extensive responsibility over the years for the care of three dogs and five cats. In addition, over the years, she has had the responsibility of pet sitting (both cats and dogs), including cat sitting for us. Because she loves animals so much, she always gives the pets lots of time in play and in love. In addition to her knowledge and experience in caring for pets, Arianna is an extremely conscientious individual. When she commits to something, she will give it 100% (and more if that were possible). For all these reasons, anyone could be assured that with Arianna their pet would receive the best of care and that they would return home to a happy and healthy pet.”
Rachel M.
“I can’t think of anyone more naturally gifted with animals than Rachel Meininger. From the time she was little, Rachel has had a deep love and connection with pets—especially dogs and cats. They are drawn to her, and she has an incredible way of instantly earning their trust and affection. When Rachel is home from college, our pets completely abandon us and become hers. They sleep in her bed, follow her everywhere, and soak up the extra love and attention she showers on them. She spoils them in the best possible way—with affection, playtime, and genuine care. Rachel is responsible, compassionate, and truly understands what it means to care for someone else's beloved pet. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet like family, you won’t find anyone better.”
