“Taliyah was amazing! She took great care of my cats and sent me pictures to keep me updated. I felt so comfortable knowing they were in good hands. Highly recommend!”
“I cannot recommend Madison enough! They are an absolute gem and truly the best cat sitter ever. The kitties were well-fed and litter box pristine, but she also went above and beyond by spending quality time with them, giving them the attention and care they deserve. I love getting the thoughtful updates, including photos and detailed messages about how they are doing each day. It gave me peace of mind knowing they are in such loving hands while I am away. Madison is reliable, attentive, and clearly has a special gift when it comes to caring for animals. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your furry babies like family, look no further. My kitties and I and I can’t wait to have her back again!”
“Elizabeth was prompt, and very open with her communication. My pup seemed to really like her and she went above and beyond to make sure he was safe and well cared for. I will use Elizabeth again for future needs.”
“Jeanette was amazing! There are very few people I will leave my baby boy with. She did amazing. She was willing to come and meet him and he is high strung but she was still willing to deal with his size and personality. We will be requesting her if we need again.”
About: I have been around a multitude of animals my entire life about a year after I graduated. I started working at a Humane Society at this job. I would administer shots, feed & water, and just take care of the most basic needs possible for animals. During this job, I feel more and more in love with taking care of animals. I am currently looking for a part-time job so I have plenty of time to take care of your furry family members. I am able to do overnight housesitting on weekends if needed or sit at home during weekdays as well. Working at a shelter I know how to safely take your pet for a walk and put them back in their crate if that is needed.
“Amanda goes above and beyond! I was so scared to leave my 16 yr oldin pin for a week long vacation, but with Amanda caring for him my mind was put to ease. She not only followed his lengthy list of care instructions, but made sure he got pets and cuddles at his visits and even took his laundry home to be kept up with. She handled everything perfectly and made our vacation much more enjoyable knowing our baby was well looked after. If we lived here full time Amanda would be our go to sitter no questions asked! Thank you Amanda you are such a blessing! ❤️❤️”
About: I was raised in a house full of dogs. Atleast 14 of them and have had many many many litters of puppies. I’ve always taken care of them my whole life! I actually got into a car accident back in 2021 and now have arthritis in my right ankle, makes it super hard to have a full time job. I also have a little three year old I stay home with! I play with the pets all day long. I’ll take them for little walks or drives. I give them food and water, some treats as well depending on what the owner says. We cuddle, it’s always a great time

“Andrea looked after my Dads 2 dogs and cat. She came everyday as expected and sent photos every visit. She did an amazing job!”
About: I've had dogs and cats most of my life and taken care of many as well. I am confident walking, bathing, playing, feeding, and generally entertaining all types of dogs. I am also open to anything else that may come up as needed! I only work about 30 hours a week, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets. The latest I ever work is 9:15pm, so if overnight care is needed I am absolutely able, and happy to do so. When I am in your home with your pets, they will always be my #1 priority. Their safety and happiness is very important to me! My eyes and attention will be on them to make sure they're safe and cared for just as you would for them.
About: I grew up on a farm, so I have been around all kinds of animals. I absolutely love them and appreciate all they offer. I have also done some pet sitting for neighbors and co-workers. I have raised and cared for dogs and cats my entire life, so I understand what it takes to ensure they feel loved. I will do everything in my power to make sure your animals are well cared for and cherished. I am a full time student but class is over after 2:30 so anytime in the afternoons works best for me. Also anytime during weekends I can be available. Just tell me a time and I will do what’s necessary to fit it in my schedule. I’m willing to do just about anything. I’m comfortable with staying in your home if that’s necessary. I will give them lots of love and attention. Making sure all their needs are met.
