“This was my first time Rachel took care of my dog, and I will definitely book her again. She took so good care of Snum. She understood my dogs sometimes weird behavior and worries (thunder, rain, wind etc.) she kept me informed every day, and she even cleaned my kitchen! I never worried for a second leaving Snum and my house in her care.”


“Angela is fantastic! She was able to house sit on a last minute request and completely put me at ease with her compassionate and responsive care. She took wonderful care of my 2 dogs and sent me frequent updates and photos throughout. My dogs were calm and happy when we returned home. I will absolutely be requesting her more in the future!”

“Blair home sat Lacey and followed our care instructions, which are a complex because of what and how we feed her. The house was also tidy. Blair communicates well and has a pleasant manor and kind demeanor. We'd would have liked daily pictures but still recommend Blair wholeheartedly.”


About: I love all dogs and treat them like my own dog. I have a small havanese who is my favorite thing in the whole wide world. I work from home and can take care of the dog anytime of the day and can go multiple times throughout the day if needed. I treat all animals like my own. I have the time to take care of the animals throughout the day. My dog is my favorite thing.

“Nancy did a wonderful job caring for my dog, Mila! She communicated frequently and sent pictures to keep me updated. I would definitely request Nancy again to watch Mila 😊”


“She was amazing with my pets! She took them on walks everyday, to the pet park, and made sure to send me daily end of the day updates on everything they did! I’ve never felt more safe for my pets while leaving, i’m usually nervous about leaving them but now that I have Taylor I feel so good that i’m leaving them in good hands!”


“Corey did an incredible job! I reached out to him on short notice, and he was eager to help. The dogs were very well taken care of and happy when I got home. Corey sent picture updates and kept me informed throughout the whole stay. I will definitely be using him again!”


About: What sets me apart from other sitters? With over 10 years of experience and a lifelong connection to animals, I bring a calm, confident, and loving presence to every pet I care for. I grew up on a farm, so animal care has been second nature to me from a very young age. I’ve worked with everything from energetic puppies to slow-moving senior pets, and I know how to adjust my care to meet each pet’s individual needs. I’m comfortable with basic training, crate routines, medication administration, and senior care—including mobility support and extra TLC for aging pets. Whether your dog needs a structured walk or your cat just wants quiet companionship, I’m here to make them feel safe and loved while you're away. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority, and I treat every animal like family * I currently work Monday through Thursday, which allows me to dedicate **Fridays through Sundays fully to pet care**. During those days, I’m available *, making it easy to accommodate a variety of pet care needs—whether it's dog walking, drop-in visits, or extended care. Having open availability on the weekends means I can provide consistent, attentive service without being rushed. I genuinely enjoy spending my free days caring for animals, and I make sure each pet receives the time, attention, and love they deserve. --- Would you like to add anything about your experience or the types of pets you care for (e.g., dogs, cats, senior pets)? I can include that too! 1. Pet Sitting (In the Client’s Home) Daily Routine & Responsibilities: Follow the pet’s regular feeding, medication, and exercise schedule. Provide fresh water at all times. Clean litter boxes, cages, or yards as needed. Give affection, attention, and playtime based on the pet’s comfort level. Maintain communication with the pet owner (updates, photos, etc.). Ensure the home stays secure (locking doors, bringing in mail, etc.)

“Karin was so amazing with my elderly cat, Kahlua. Very patient and gave me regular updates. I felt so at ease knowing Karin was there to care for her. Would absolutely recommend and will plan to use her again should I go on another trip.”

Blair home sat Lacey and followed our care instructions, which are a complex because of what and how we feed her. The house was also tidy. Blair communicates well and has a pleasant manor and kind demeanor. We'd would have liked daily pictures but still recommend Blair wholeheartedly.

George fed my dog, slept with, played with and walked him, and i couldn't even tell my house had been visited by anyone else! He will definitely take your pet and house as seriously as it was his. He also watered my plants and took in a Sams Club delivery. Thanks for hanging out with Skeat, George!
