“Deanne was very friendly and our dogs were very comfortable with her coming in to our home to take care of them! She made sure to update us and send pictures! Would definitely have her again if we were to go out of town in the future!”


“Jennifer did an awesome job keeping us informed and making the dogs very happy with playtime, lots of naps, and fun treats. It was so relaxing to be able to go away and know our home was watched and the dogs happy to stay in their own beds. If an occasion presents itself again where we need to travel and not have all thee dogs with us we will call her again.”

About: Hello! Since a young age, I have lived with a happy, excited dog who has always been a joy to come home to. As a younger sitter, I believe I bring a special energy and excitement when it comes to taking care of dogs. I watched my golden doodle transform from a little puppy into an awesome dog. From feeding her, taking her on walks, cleaning up after her, watching her, and simply spending time with her, I learned how to take care of a dog in all phases of her life. I recognize that all dogs behave differently, but I enjoy looking after dogs who have a ton of energy and love constant attention. That being said, I think dogs who are quieter and might not want as much attention are just as important! Thank you for taking the time to read about me, and I hope I have the opportunity to care for your dog soon! I am currently a college student home for summer break, so I should be pretty flexible when it comes to caring for your dog. Besides taking one online summer course, I will most likely be free for most of the day, if you need me! Although I will not be taking dogs at my own house, I am more than willing to take your dog for a walk in the park, around the suburb that I live in, or on the lake path that I am near. I am more than happy to do whatever makes you feel most comfortable. If that means staying at your house and just utilizing your space, that is great!

About: I've spent years caring for pets and have professional experience as a dog trainer. I specialize in obedience, leash manners, and providing loving, reliable pet care. Whether it's daily walks, training reinforcement, or cozy companionship, I ensure every pet feels safe and happy while their owners are away. With a flexible part-time work schedule, I can prioritize each pet’s needs, ensuring they get the attention, care, and exercise they deserve. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, or playtime, I adapt to their routine to provide consistent, loving care. My schedule allows me to be there when your pet needs me most! I provide loving, reliable care for pets in their own home, ensuring their daily routine stays consistent. From mealtime to playtime and snuggles, I prioritize their comfort and happiness. Whether it's following feeding schedules, daily walks, or medication needs, I do my best to keep their routine uninterrupted, so they feel safe and secure while you're away.

About: I come from a blended family, so my mother has 4 cats and my father has 2 dogs. As the eldest, I take the initiative to be responsible for their well-being when my parents are away. I understand the hard-work, mindful care, and protective security that is pet-sitting. I take my dogs for frequent walks, clean up after their accidents, provide food and water for them, and make sure they get their daily treats. I understand the psychology of my cats in order to bond with them and provide them with chill vibes and lots of purrs. I take care of their litter boxes, feed them wet and dry food twice daily as recommended, and maintain their water bowls. I also clean up after them when they puke up hairballs in random places around the house. I understand the energy and dedication that it takes to care for a furry, loved member of the family. I check up on my pets frequently and consistently to ensure their safety and wellness. I like to get my pets active, whether that entails walks, belly rubs, or the comfort in presence of a nearby guardian. I guarantee if your pet could talk it would say, "I want to be his buddy!"

About: I began doing pet sitting in 2016 for family & friends, and that was most of my sitting experience until I began my dog training certification. Now I’ve been in pet care professionally for two years, and have had my dog trainer certification for half of that. My weeks are based around pet care. I do it full-time and have a customizable schedule based around my various clients & appointments. I have special hours available at request. I make sure to get an exact outline of what is expected/allowed for the pet, and am not shy about requesting elaboration if there’s any confusion on my part. Additionally, I like to do what I can to keep them mentally stimulated with games, activities, and some light obedience training/reinforcement so they can hopefully carry that good behavior over to their daily life.

“Emily did a wonderful job taking care of Roux while I was out of town for a long weekend. She left the house clean and the dog happy. I recommend her.”


“Eddie was fantastic. This was the first time we used Rover. I was a bit apprehensive. Happy to say, it was easy and Eddie kept us informed regarding our fur babies. Thanks Eddie. We will definitely do it again”


“We were impressed by how Jillian went above and beyond, such as providing daily updates and taking good care of both our cats and our home. She stayed in our place for 2 weeks and we felt comfortable knowing that our place was left in good hands. We appreciate that she is a very responsible, respectful and polite person and takes pride in what she does. Communication with her was very easy and she is always responsive but most importantly our cats loved her since the meet and greet. We definitely recommend Jillian to take care of your fur babies”

About: I have taken care of dogs within my home my whole life. In high school, I started watching neighbor's pets and continue to on my breaks home from college. Pets are a joy to work with and a source of therapy for me. I love looking after animals and take care of them like they are my own. Pet care will best fit in to my schedule on weekends. As a med student, I do have classes during the week days and will need to study on weekends. However, this can easily be accomplished while watching a pet and utilizing their needs as a mental break. I care for others' pets as if they are my own. I love animals and do everything I can to make them happy. Whether it is play time, walks, cuddles, I am here to give them what they enjoy and make their experience a great one.


“Alexandra is wonderful and the dogs were extremely well-cared for! It was so nice to know someone was at our home and watching our dogs while we were gone. Alexandra was competent, attentive, and truly loved our dogs. Our dogs were happy to see us, but calm and relaxed so we knew they had been absolutely fine with Alexandra. Will definitely be contacting Alexandra first when we are looking for a house and dog sitter!”


About: I have 2 years of formal work experience at a boarding/kennel facility where I took care of dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages. Dogs with behavioral issues were also welcomed and given tender love and care along with pets who faced health problems. I am comfortable administering medication, caring for the senior dog community, and playing with puppies who just need to get some energy out! I recently finished my first year of college and can apply what I learned in my animal behavior and biology classes to my position as well. Growing up, I've always had a pet in my home from dogs, cats, and hamsters to fish, reptiles, and birds. I am confident around any type of animal, and I would love the opportunity to care for your pet! This will be my primary job for the summer as I am also going to be volunteering at my local animal shelter. I am incredibly flexible with dates and times as well because of this. I am available during the weekdays for drop-in care, walks, and playtime at any chosen time of the day. I am available Sundays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays for overnight boarding services starting at or around 4 pm (times are always negotiable and catered to your personal schedule)! I am currently certified in canine and feline first aid and CPR through the American Red Cross. I am comfortable with crating your dog if needed. I enjoy leash walking, including taking high-energy breeds or low-energy senior dogs for walks. I confidently supervise outdoor playtime in your own yard or even at dog parks and beaches.

“Oreo truly appreciated Jenny's company. She was friendly and treated her well.”


About: I've cared for pets my whole life. I've kept aquariums, grew up with dogs, even raised two puppies in my time. Unfortunately I am allergic to cats and do not want to track dandruff home, so I will not be offering services for cats aside from drop ins. I'm just a dad trying to be more active, make friends, and provide a service to the community. I love pets and I think they are an absolute blessing. For my fee I will actively exercise and play with your pets, teach them tricks or commands (if desired), and ensure they are pampered, engaged with, and given attention, rather than simply supervision. Ft dad, ft student, part time worker. Weekends, early mornings, and night walks are the best times for me to incorporate into my schedule. Weekdays are devoted to my family and studies, but for the right arrangement I'm willing to setup Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday commitments. How I care for your pet is entirely up to you, I will accommodate whichever preferences you may have. Every pet deserves to be played with, get exercise, and be well pampered. Rubs downs, brushing, bathing, I'm comfortable caring for your pet how you know best.
