About: I offer pet photography! I am a photographer and would love to get your dog professional photos while I am pet sitting. I’ve had animals my entire childhood. We have never been without a dog in our home. I am experienced in dog walking, over night stays, check ins, and belly rubs! I am currently not working so I will have all the time to care for your dogs any day! Weekdays or weekends I will be there for your pup! I will follow any directions you give me based on your dogs needs. I am very rule oriented so anything you have to do for your pup will be done by me!
About: I absolutely love dogs. My wife's family has always had dogs. They currently have a German Shepard and a chocolate lab. I absolutely adore them. I have a large fenced in yard, I am also very flexible to come and sit anytime you need. I love taking dogs for a walk and I love playing with them at the park especially fetch! I am very reliable and safe and come from a dog family. I will love and care for your dog like I it is my own. My children are now in middle school and high school and they love dogs as well. I can provide loving and affection for your dog and care for it like it was my own. I hope to hear from you soon Taking care of a pet just becomes part of my everyday flow. You feed them, take them out or clean up after them, and make time to play or cuddle a bit. Most days involve quick things like feeding and walks, while once a week you might do a deeper clean or grooming. It’s not too hard once you get into a rhythm—it just becomes routine. I make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for, whether they’re in my home or a client’s. That includes feeding them on schedule, giving them fresh water, and making time for walks, play, or snuggles—whatever they need to feel happy and relaxed. I stick to their usual routine as much as possible to keep things familiar. If I’m in a client’s home, I also make sure everything stays clean and tidy, and I always send updates so they know their pet is doing great. I also have a fenced in yard.

“Sanibel had an amazing time with Stephanie. She hung out with her 2 nights in a row during our wedding weekend. The 2nd night as soon as she saw her she was prancing her way excited to spend the night with her. Stephanie was super flexible and accommodating and we knew right away Sanibel wa in great hands. We hope she can spend some time with her again!”
“This is the third time Elizbeth cared for my two dogs and one cat. This was a 2-night house-sitting job. I can't say enough positive things about how Elizabeth ensured my pets' welfare. Both dogs are pretty sensitive and have been uneasy when we have been away in the past. Not so with Elizabeth! They had a great time playing and cuddling with her, and they settled in beautifully. When we got home, I could see how comfortable they are with Elizabeth. What a difference and what a relief! I recommend Elizabeth highly for her pet sitting skills and dedication to the best care for my pets.”
“Mackenzie did a wonderful job taking care of Shadow, our zebra finch, and our reptiles. She was very communicative, sent pictures, and even took Shadow to the park! The house was perfectly clean when we returned. I would highly recommend Mackenzie :)”
“Nikki was wonderful with our beagle, Wesley. She sent pictures regularly and followed our requests without any issues! Our house, including all our flowers, were well cared for! Communication excellent. Nikki was also very accommodating when we had travel issues returning home. We would use her services again, for sure!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets. I’ve cared for puppies, senior dogs, and even administered medications when needed. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’m currently working part-time, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I’m available for boarding on weekends, and weekdays after 6pm. My schedule is flexible, so I can accommodate morning or evening walks as needed. I have a fully fenced yard and two friendly dogs who love meeting new friends, so your pup will always have company. I’m happy to crate your dog if needed and can follow any specific routines or safety instructions you provide. Your pet’s comfort and safety will always come first in my care.

“Jason was great with the dogs. I felt comfortable on my trip knowing they were in good hands.”
About: I’ve had dogs for as long as I can remember. I’ve fostered dogs for a canine rescue, allowed pets to stay in my home while their owner was waiting for a new home as well as numerous pet sitting opportunities at their owner’s houses. I teach until 3pm and get home around 3.30. Depending on the day, I may have to coach or work my second job during the week. Weekends are usually more flexible but I can make almost anything work! I follow the exact instructions that the owner leaves or communicates with me, especially if it comes to meds or feedings. I enjoy caring for people’s pets as if they were my own and allows me to get my animal fix whenever possible 😊
“Did a great job with my boys.”
“Madison took such amazing care of Oliver during a long shift. She let him snuggle her and gave lots of love. I really appreciated the updates, photos, and communication. Definitely recommend! I’m sure Ollie is looking forward to next visit.”
About: I have grown up with dogs and rescued my big hunk of love Leo. I love dogs of all sizes, breed and ages and cats as well. I actually like dogs more than people. I also am a cute cat lover too! I have two black beauties that love to snuggle up but also play when they are feeling up for it. I have a pretty flexible schedule as I am a personal trainer and I teach fitness classes so I don’t have a typical 9-5 job. Feel free to ask questions. I crate my dog when I am at work. He loves going in it and waits for me to shut the door every morning before I leave.

Madelyn N.
“Maddy has been one of the most passionate and caring pet sitters we have ever used. She understands that pets ARE family and treats them as such. We have two dogs, three cats, and used to have a bunny. She has followed every instruction left for her and is extremely conscientious, not only with our pets but with our home as well. We rely on her for house sitting, but also for drop-in and walks while we are working or traveling. She is a great communicator and sends pics and stories. She also brings to our immediate attention any issues. Both dogs require meds and she routinely administers the medications. I love, but hate to travel without our pets, and Maddy makes it so I can enjoy my time away and not have to worry so much about the family members I am leaving behind.”
Peter G.
“Peter is an amazing person for dogs. He loves and cares for my father's dogs as if they were his own. My father travels a lot and Peter is the one to go over and let the dogs out, take them to the park and play with them. He is very trustworthy and reliable.”

Lucinda E.
“Luci is an absolute gem when it comes to pet sitting. She’s one of the most reliable, caring, and attentive people I know, not just with animals, but in everything she does. Whether it’s dogs, cats, or any creature in between, Luci treats each pet like they’re part of her own family (though I will say she’s especially gifted with cats!). She’s incredibly responsible, keeps you updated with photos and messages, and goes above and beyond to make sure your pets are happy, healthy, and loved while you're away. I’ve seen her win over even the most anxious pets with her calming energy and kind heart. Plus, your home will be just as you left it- if not cleaner! If you’re lucky enough to book Luci, your pets are in the best possible hands. I can’t recommend her enough!”

“known Jay M. for years, and he’s always been the goto person for anything pet related. He has a natural connection with animals dogs instantly feel comfortable around him. Jay is extremely reliable, responsible, and treats every pet like his own. Whether it’s walking, boarding, or just keeping your dog company, he’s patient, playful, and always attentive. I’ve personally seen him care for multiple dogs at once, including his own sweet French Bulldog, and he always makes safety and fun the top priority. Any pet parent would be lucky to have Jay looking after their furry friend”

Rachel V.
“Rachel is the best with dogs & also cats! She would rescue every dog possible if she could. She treated her rescued pittie named Leo just like a child. He always had a chair at the campfire, she always took him on walks, he slept next to her in bed and she was always spoiling him. He was always getting dressed up for every holiday and he seemed to enjoy it. She is always around her mom and sisters dogs as well. I would trust her with my animals with no worries. I highly recommend her!”
