“Leslie is great with my dog and always keeps me updated on how he is doing. She makes my day much easier knowing I can trust her with my dog and he enjoys spending time with her.”
About: Leaving your pups with a stranger is extremely worrying! With me as your sitter, I can send you wellness pictures as often as you’d like, text you plenty of updates, and treat them as my own. I currently own 5 very high maintenance dogs, in which most of them are large breed. I’ve gone through thick and thin with dogs, but I believe that they all deserve love. If you are worried about finding a sitter who can manage your wild (or calm) dogs, then I’d be happy to help! I will always elaborate on my schedule with owners and spend as much time as I can with the animals! I work part time, but most likely I would be requesting off work to be with your animals. I don’t mind dogs on the couch, or on the bed. I am not strict on any training at all, but being potty trained is fairly needed unless it’s a puppy or senior. I can provide walks and baths. If your pets need a few hours of playtime, I can play with them as well. Every family has specific needs that I would be glad to discuss with you!
“Amanda was great! I loved all the pictures and videos she sent. I could tell my pets enjoyed her visits. I 100% recommend her and will be contacting her in the future if we need her again ?”
“Megan has been amazing with my two toy poodle boys! My Dexter and Daryl absolutely love her. She’s very dependable and trustworthy. I’ll continue to use Megan for as long as she’s available!”
“Alison went above and beyond in taking care of our large breed, high energy fur babies. We were nervous about leaving them for so long but, Alison made it a nonissue. Our babies were nonchalant when we returned - the telltale sign. Thank you Alison!!”
“Katie is amazing!! Gia my little fur baby love her!! We really love her too, feeling great to have someone like her we trust our baby!! We’ll continue calling Katie for as long as she’s available! Highly recommend Katie for your next trip!!”
“Love them! They treated my babies so well and my babies enjoyed when they came over. I was so anxious and nervous leaving my babies at home and having someone drop in and Destinee helped me feel at ease with visiting the first time. I have already rebooked for my next mini trip!”
“Erica is wonderful! She is very attentive and detail oriented. She cares for animals is if they are her own and is excellent about updating the owners with everything necessary! Loved having her as our sitter!! Will be requesting again !”
About: I’ve taken care of many pets over the last 20 years. Family and friends have trusted and relied on me to walk & feed their fur babies. I have 2 of my own and would love to help you with yours! I’m currently working full time with a somewhat flexible schedule. During the week, I can walk and/or feed your fur baby during lunch time OR I’m available in the evenings. I am very open on weekends. I will follow any directions you provide that relate to walking and feeding. I would love for you to let me know your pets temperament, so I can adjust accordingly - based on your direction.

I am a retired airline engineer and recently received my Master Gardener certification. I am retired and do some dog training also. I enjoy pets and would love to have some pet drop ins possibly pet sitting to fill the void I treat everyone’s pet along with their household as it was one of my own.

About: I've taken care of dogs since I can remember. My dog has had professional training and through that I've learned a few things. Most animals love me, I believe because I have calm energy. I am a server, which allows me to take care of your fur babies while you're at work. I always know my schedule 1 week in advance. Your dog will enjoy the comfort of his/her home and routine as I will visit and take care of them like they are my own.
About: I have had a dog of myself for 10+ years, and he has definitely helped me learn a lot! I’m able to easily form great relationships with any dog I have met (so far), and absolutely adore being around them and caring for them. Thanks to my experience as a dog owner, I know all there is to know of the basics of caring for dogs of all ages. I am currently working on finding another job, but my current one has me working 12-6 at least 3 days a week until July 30th. I plan on finding a job I can do remotely, making it easier for me to be with your pet as long as possible. Since I don’t offer boarding in my own home, I will travel to yours to care for your pet. When housesitting, I tend to hang out in the area where your pet is in the most to keep an eye on them if they need anything, and to keep them company while I’m around (if I can, I also like being on the floor so if they want to come and say hi or get some pets I’m right within their reach)! Also, I may be unfamiliar with the neighborhood, but that won’t discourage me from taking your furry friend on walks if they’re able!
About: I currently live at home with my mom and we have 3 cats and 1 dog in this crazy zoo! I love all animals and have been pet sitting for family friends for years! I am a grad student, so my schedule is very flexible right now! I take online classes so I am always home to let out pets! I will make sure that your pets get lots of attention while you’re gone! My schedule is flexible so I am able to be there as often as needed to play, walk, or let them outside!
About: Being an energetic and patient person, your pets will thrive in my care, getting loved like they are my own. I have many years of experience w/ dogs & cats, a couple reptiles, and an occasional hamster. Not having any pets of my own, and being an empty nester, I have a very flexible schedule as well. I am now an empty nester, with no pets of my own, so my schedule is very flexible. I can happily provide short- or long-term care for your pets. I will ensure that your pet is loved and kept safe from harm. I can also give your pet a bath if needed, take them on walks and/or runs, give medication and lots of snuggles!
“Kilynn did a great job with some scared kitties who haven’t been around other people much. She also handled twice a day medication for an older cat. Kilynn took care to do a wellness check on every animal and send detailed reports. Highly recommend.”
About: I’m a registered veterinary technician (animal nurse) and I have about 10 years of experience. I’ve been an RVT for about 4 years now so I know what it takes to make sure your pet is well cared for while you’re away. I’ve pet sat for friends and family before; working with dogs, cats, to even reptiles and other small mammals. I look forward to working with you! I care for my own pets and I work full time at a vet clinic. I’m off every other weekend and thursdays. More often than not am I working with animals! Typically, when I’ve pet sat, I’ve stayed in people’s houses and work with what is available in the home. I’m flexible when it comes to environment and work place.

Carly D.
“Carly watched our 2 dogs while we were on vacation. She walked them regularly and played with them in her fenced yard where they were able to run unleashed. We have a small dog (MaltePoo) and a large dog (Australian Shepard), so we know she can handle all sizes of pups equally. They both get excited when they see Carly.”

Rick V.
“When I think of Rick, people, pets, and plants (gardening) come to mind. I entrust Rick to my 20-pound mini goldendoodle, 24/7, and I'm a fussbudget! I have a 2-hour commute (one-way) for my work, M-F, and I won't leave my dog unattended for hours on end. Rick displays "The Softer Side of Sears" when I say that he has a compassion and passion for people and pets. He reinforces training commands (to my already certified Therapy Dog) to keep my doodle accountable and enjoyable in public space. "The pride of ownership" is his mantra, as an avid gardener, dog trainer, neat freak (for lack of a better term) and all around nice guy.”

Claire B.
“We have owned a pet in our home for over 13 years and Claire has been exceptional in caring for him. She’s been involved in bathing walking and feeding him as well as helping him learn tricks using treats as rewards. She’s always had a love for animals, reaching out to owners, asking if she can say hi to their pet pets when they’re out on walks.”
Samantha S.
“Samantha has always had a great love for animals and a gentle nature. She was raised with several dogs and cats at home and spent time with horses at her aunt’s farm. During high school and college, Samantha helped several friends and neighbors by pet sitting and house sitting. Once word got out that she did such a great job, she often had to turn down pet sitting opportunities. Samantha is smart, responsible, trustworthy, and levelheaded. Your pets will love her and she will be respectful of your home and your time.”
Serena T.
“Serena is a happy, energetic person who is very passionate about loving people and animals. Your pets will be lucky to have her as a sitter. Very dependable, flexible & caring.”

Jenna B.
“Jenna has been our go-to pet sitter for years. She stays at the house to care for both our dogs and cats. We appreciate her background as a vet tech—it’s reassuring to know our pets are in knowledgeable hands. She’s dependable and clearly cares about animals, which is so important when leaving your pets in someone else's care. We're grateful for her help when we've needed to be away!”
