“Look no further; Ally C is who you want. We have always used the same person to care for Eva and Kitten. When he was no longer an option, we panicked. As soon as I saw Ally's picture, I knew she was the one, and I was right. Ally was fantastic and went above and beyond. What a relief to know that our pets were with someone so caring and fun. I have no hesitation recommending her and am positive you will be happy with her pet care. She is the best, and I can't recommend her enough!”

“I felt very comfortable having Natalie drop in to take care of my my cat while I was on vacation. I hadn’t spent since multiple days away since I adopted her a few months ago and it was great to receive updates and know that she was doing well with Natalie.”

“Extremely reliable and communicative! My dog has anxiety when we leave. Jeff went above and beyond to make her as comfortable as possible including staying at our house overnight and additional check-ins during the day. I would recommend Jeff to everyone looking for a safe, reliable person for their pets.”

“Lucy did a wonderful job taking care of our cat. We really appreciated the detailed updates and pictures so we could see how he was doing while we were away. Would definitely book her again!”


About: I've had pets for most of my life and have cared for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies and kittens to senior pets who need extra patience and attention. I'm comfortable maintaining routines, providing plenty of exercise and playtime, and making sure pets feel safe and cared for while their owners are away. I also understand the importance of consistency with young pets and can help reinforce good habits and routines. For senior pets, I'm happy to provide the extra care, patience, and attention they may need. I'm currently home from college and work part time at a local elementary school until their summer starts. I am available most days of the week and at most hours. I follow their normal routine as closely as possible to help their pets feel comfortable and secure. I make sure they have fresh food and water, clean up after them, provide playtime, exercise, and plenty of attention based on their individual needs and personality. For cats, I keep litter boxes clean, spend time playing or socializing with them, and make sure they have a calm, stress-free environment.
“Savanah is great! She has a good rapport with the dogs, who seem to really like her, and she's very conscientious. She also communicates well: she responds promptly and does a great job of taking photos and sending updates. Highly recommend.”

“We had a great experience with Heather taking care of our cats while we were away. She was able to visit them a couple times a day, which really put our mind at ease. Heather was prompt, reliable, and communicated clearly throughout our trip. Highly recommend!”

About: I have had pets all of my life. I grew up around dogs of all shapes and sizes. My kids (9, 6, and 4) are also used to dogs and are gentle with them. I am a teacher so I am at work from 8-3:30. During the summer, I am home most of the time. Additionally, I would be able to let the dogs free in the house during the day. We have a small yard in the front but a large side yard that the dogs would be able to enjoy. We also have a lead in the yard if the dogs would like to stay outside for extended periods. We have one dog in our home but she is used to other dogs as my family has six dogs when we are all together. We also have a cat but he typically goes into a room alone. Additionally we have gates in our home so that the dogs can stay on the floor that we are on if necessary. We have a pretty consistent schedule and I only work ten minutes from our house. So, I can stop home if necessary to care for the dogs. We have a large size yard which has a large lead in order to let the dogs roam and relax. We also take our dog for a walk in the morning, after work, and after the kids go to bed.
About: I became a cat mom in 2019, and have since spent time volunteering at a cat shelter and a farm (taking care of kittens, piglets and goats!). I’ve always been drawn to animals and will take great care of your pets! I have a flexible schedule, and generally available both weekends and weekdays for a set period of time. Please feel free to reach out to discuss your needs! My preference is to take of pets in my client’s home, since I have a cat that does not get along easily with other animals. Depending on the duration of the pet-sitting, I can do day trips or overnights.
About: I have taken care and loved all ages of dogs my whole life. From owning them to watching the neighbors and friends. I have also worked in a professional setting for about 5+ years and have had experience caring for all different breeds and their specific individual needs. In addition, I have training experience with Penn Vet Working Dog Center as well as some classes I attended at a training school! I’m grateful for all the experiences I’ve had and all the ones waiting to be had! I have currently care for 3 different types of animals (cat, gecko, and turtle!) I did have a dog as well however she sadly passed recently. I am able to crate dogs as well as provide medications and keep up with dietary restrictions. I am able to walk as well as play and spend time with the pups! For cats I am able to scoop litter and give as many or as little cuddles as the cat may enjoy! I’m good with feeding as well as administering meds to cats
About: Animals have been a lifelong passion of mine. With over 14 years of hands-on pet care experience, two degrees in Animal Science, and fostering rescue dogs, I understand that every pet has unique needs and personalities. I have experience caring for puppies, senior dogs, shy rescues, and dogs with special medical or behavioral needs. As a manager in an animal care environment, attention to detail, safety, and animal welfare are at the center of everything I do. Whether your pet needs a comfortable place to stay, daily exercise, medication administration, or extra patience and reassurance while you’re away, I will care for them as if they were my own. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, low-stress environment where both pets and owners feel confident and comfortable. I have a flexible schedule and am able to provide attentive, hands-on care throughout the day. Because I keep my boarding services small and personalized, your dog will receive plenty of supervision, exercise, enrichment, and affection. I’m committed to maintaining your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a pet-friendly home and years of experience caring for dogs through fostering, rescue work, and my educational background in animal science. I carefully introduce dogs, monitor interactions, follow feeding and medication instructions, and can accommodate crate-trained dogs. I keep a low number of boarders at a time to ensure every dog receives individualized attention, exercise, and a stress-free environment.

About: I’ve taken care dogs of all kinds, with 4 years of house and dog sitting experience. The longest period I have house/dog sat is 3 weeks. Experience chauffeuring pets. Open schedule, able to work as needed. Experience with rescues. I am currently working from home with a freelance schedule, which means I have a lot of availability for your pets! As long as I have a few hours notice I should be able to make it work. I will keep your pets on a long leash but will walk them through the 1 acre property, and am happy to walk them on the neighboring 200 acres of preserved land.
“Angelina is smart, caring, thoughtful, and thorough. We have two older cats that we knew were in good care while we were away. I would highly recommend Angelina to anyone looking for excellent care for their pets.”

About: I am an elementary school teacher. So, caregiving, patience, and responsibility are a huge part of who I am and what I value. I won’t just watch your pet, I will love each furry friend like it’s my own. I love being active, nurturing others (including 4 legged friends), I’m very organized and punctual, and just helping is my passion. My Weekly Availability 🐾 I offer flexible daytime and evening care throughout the week and do my best to accommodate your pet’s routine! Monday: Midday (12:00 PM – 2:30 PM) & evening (after 5:30 PM) Tuesday: Open availability with a short afternoon break (2:30 PM – 5:30 PM) Wednesday: Unavailable Thursday: Morning through early afternoon (until 3:00 PM) Friday: Limited availability upon request I tend to book up quickly between nannying, especially for recurring walks and visits, so feel free to reach out to reserve your spot—I’m always happy to work with your schedule when I can! I do not have pets at my own apartment, but at my parents house we have 4 dogs that I have loved and cared for for years! Dogs are such a comfort to me, so in return I always aim to create the most loving, comforting, safe environment for each pet I encounter.
“Emma is so friendly and a great cat sitter! She was very through in asking about their care and treated them well. My cats can be rambunctious but she did a good job at separating them for feedings and playing with them. She also sent great update photos with the rover cards throughout their care. Would highly recommend!”

“Elizabeth did a perfect job taking care of my two cats. She was responsive to all questions and sent comprehensive updates on both cats each day. I felt good knowing they were getting such good care while I was away.”

About: I've been walking dogs of all sizes for about 7 years now in different ways and I have to say I've never met I dog I haven't become immediate best friends with. I love to take the dogs on their favorite trails, and play if they still have energy after. They will always have water provided and a treat at the end of each visit, with lots of pets and snuggles in between. With my previous experience I feel comfortable with any size dog, and can handle different behaviors as well. Though every visit can seem repetitive, if something unexpected occurs I know the best routes to handle any situation that may come up. I think it's important to think on your feet, even if you only have two. ;) I’m currently working part time as a dog walker and working towards finishing my undergrad degree in college. I am doing classes online this summer. I do not have the ability to care for pets at my home at this time. My current living situation is unsuitable for strange dogs to come stay.

We couldn't be happier with Kasey as our cat sitter for Sam and Smoets! From the moment she stepped in, it was clear she genuinely cared about their comfort and well-being. She kept us updated with photos and notes, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. If you're looking for someone reliable, kind, and truly attentive to your pets' needs, Kasey is the one.
