“Went on vacation for a week. I felt like my girls were safe and well loved by maelee!! I loved all the photos and summary updates I got about the girls on a daily.”
“Ariel was not only flawless in her care of Cali, she far exceeded my expectations. I would hire her again in a heartbeat. She was kind and personable, and communicated often. She obviously loves cats. She certainly made my time away while I had surgery stress-free.”
“I left my dog, Theo, with Kelsey and Forrest for a few hours, and definitely plan on using them again in the future! They were very accommodating, and facilitated a meet-up beforehand, so that Theo could get comfortable with them and their space before his stay. When I dropped him off, he didn’t even look back! Kelsey and Forrest are very trustworthy and obviously animal lovers.”
About: I’ve had pets all my life, with experience caring for dogs of many different sizes and breeds. While taking care of your pet I will make them feel at home, maintain their routine with them and give plenty of attention. Pet care is vital in my house. With 3 animals to take care of, I have daily routines set in place in order to ensure my pets are well taken care of. We have a fenced in yard and space to run around, and a quiet, no-outlet neighborhood with no drive-thru traffic for walks. There is a dog bed for sleeping and a crate if needed.
“Abby did a great job of taking care of my two cats over several days and leaving messages with updates and communicating regularly. She was very professional about meeting beforehand to get acquainted and rolled with some last minute changes.”
“Kaitlyn was wonderful to our pets while we were away. One of my cats was dealing with medical issues prior to leaving for our trip and Kaitlyn went out of their way to update us and do whatever was needed to take care of our sweet boy. They absolutely exceed expectations! Thank you so much Kaitlyn!”
“Alaina did a great job taking care of Bella while I was away. She was friendly, communicated very well, and I would definitely feel confident about rebooking her or recommending her to others.”
“Katie did a great job with our first "drop in" visit. She took Dexter and Jack outside to let them stretch their legs and potty. Then when they wanted in early due to the heat, spend the rest of the visit playing and snuggling with them. She sent updates in how they were doing plus plenty of pics. We will definitely use her again.”
“OMG! Jaqelynn is THE BEST! We were out of town for an extended period of time and Jaqelynn made sure our little kitty was well cared for. We will DEFINITELY hire her again in the future. 🩷”
About: I have years of experience caring for animals, from dogs to cats & rabbits. Pet care is an area that I am thrilled to be now pursuing on a higher level. Animals have captured my heart for years, and this is something that will not change now or in the future. I am someone who pays attention to details and always has animal welfare at the forefront of my mind. I do not doubt that I am someone to be trusted with your animals. I look forward to potentially working with you! I am fortunate in that I have a fairly flexible routine currently. This allows for pet care jobs and responsibilities to be easier to take on. I am happy to watch your animals in your home if all checks out. What might it look like? I could stop by once or twice a day (‘depending) to make sure your pet(s) are well and everything is running smoothly. For example, I just wrapped up pet sitting for someone I know in the area & she gave me a spare key for her place. This is just what made sense & what she was comfortable with at the time. She left some realistic instructions for me & all went well. It was a win-win situation. You just need help with dog walking? I am happy to consider that as well!
About: We absolutely love dogs, and not just our human family, our Samoyed Luna loves making new friends! With our large fenced yard, let your dog(s) run and play while you’re away! No young kiddos at home, but we do have two boys ages 12 & 13. Need a walk?! We average 4-8 miles a day (Samoyeds are busy dogs with lots of energy!). Happy to take your dog along on the walk! Your dog will have access to the outdoors frequently (large acre fenced), or can hang out inside if they prefer. I can work around your home routine so your dog has an amazing time at his home away from home! Not boarding and just need walks?! Fill me in on your typical route and I’ll do my best to follow that. Don’t have one?! No problem! With so many trails around the area, we’re sure to find a great route! Our current dog, Luna, is not crated but we are open to crating your dog (or having an accessible crate available) if that is your home routine. With our large yard, the dogs will run and play throughout the day.
“Amanda was so quick to respond and friendly to communicate with! She did an amazing job with our Wrigley and it was great to know that we could depend on her timely visit to our house. We look forward to calling on her again for help sometime soon.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since I was a kid, helping friends, family, and neighbors with everything from walking and feeding to playtime and grooming. Over the past few years, I’ve gained more professional experience by pet sitting regularly and handling animals of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I’m comfortable giving medications, following special routines, and providing lots of love and attention. I also have a cat of my own named Charlie, so I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member—I treat every pet like they’re my own. Right now until school starts my availability is completely open just get with me and I should be able to watch your loved ones at any time. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or my client’s, I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. In my client’s home, I follow their routine closely—feeding times, walks, playtime, medications, and any special instructions. I keep the home tidy, give updates and photos, and make sure pets get plenty of attention. If I’m watching a pet in my own home, I provide a calm, clean space with lots of love, toys, and a cozy place to rest. I treat every animal with patience and care, just like I do with my own cat, Charlie.
“Holly was absolutley amazing with my cat! She did a great job of keeping him company and entertained while I was out of town and even brought her own toys for him! She sent great updates and has a very flexible schedule. It's great to find a pet sitter on here that actually loves cats too!”
About: My dog, Obi-Wan, passed away recently on May 2, 2025. I had him for 3 years. I love caring for animals and miss it dearly. Obi was muzzle trained. I’ve dealt with reactive dogs in the past. I have more patience and understanding than most. I will take care of your fur baby like I would take care of mine. I work from home full time. 8-5 Mon-Fri. I can take care of animals during my lunch or after work. We can work something out. If you have an apartment complex or a house I will make sure they get to play outside. Do their dog duties and hopefully they take a long nap after having a great day. Daily walks, companionship, hugs, and love.
“Valaria did a great job checking in on our cats while we were away for a few days. She also made a nice point to park in a manner to show some activity at the house. Much appreciated help!”

“I've known Jessica for 10 years, and if there's anything that lights her up, it's her pets. One of her pets she's diligently cared for since before I knew her, and the other two she took over the care of them because others wouldn't. She values respect of both animals and people, so I believe she'll be great to work with and honor your home and your animals as well.”
