“Elizabeth was very responsive and it was easy to coordinate with her. She took great care of our dog and sent us a very thorough update about her visits with him. We had a lot of peace of mind knowing he was being well taken care of when we were away!”



“Venetia was so lovely with our dog who can be difficult with strangers. She was communicative throughout the whole process and flexible with our last minute travel changes. I couldn't ask for a better sitter.”

About: I specialize in attentive, stress-free cat care, with a deep understanding of feline behavior and needs. I’ve also cared for dogs and know how to ensure they feel safe, seen, and comfortable. My calm presence and attention to detail set me apart when it comes to compassionate, reliable pet care. My schedule allows for catering to all of a pet's needs: feeding, grooming, walking, playing and enrichment, medication administration, etc. I can also do multiple drop-ins per day/extended drop-ins for pets that need company throughout the day. I live in an apartment complex, so I would not be able to host your pet in my home, but I have reliable transportation and would love to come to you!

“Cassandra did an outstanding job caring for my two dogs. She is punctual, passionate and enthusiastic in performing her job. She cared for my pets as if they were her own.”


“Lisa is very sweet and attentive with Gerti. It takes a while for Gerti to warm up to people and she warmed up right away to Lisa. Lisa has a special way with animals and we are so happy to meet her”


About: Animals are the best friends in our lives and deserve attentive care and respect, as well as an active life of curiosity and steady love! I am available this summer pretty much all the time. Those days when I am not available will not be on my schedule thank you! At my house we have four acres to run around on and a long private road with very little traffic where we can explore together (with a leash). There is a lot of fresh air and fun natural smells coming up from the woods to investigate!

About: Hello! As a 20 year old who loves dogs I cannot wait to get to know you and your pet! I have had dogs my entire life, I have successfully trained multiple puppies and taken care of senior dogs. I can give your dog the attention they need. I live in an area surrounded by woods and if wanted, two English cocker spaniels to keep great company!

Certifications in Pet first aid, Animal poison control, and Animal Behavior I have plenty of flexibility to focus on providing attentive and reliable care for your pets.

About: What sets me apart is the level of care, presence, and attention I bring to every pet I look after. As a stay-at-home mom, I have the flexibility and availability to give pets consistent companionship and supervision throughout the day. I understand how important routines, comfort, and trust are—especially when someone else is caring for a beloved pet. I’m naturally nurturing, detail-oriented, and communicative, which means you’ll always know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. I treat every pet like part of the family, because to me, they truly are. I’m a stay at home mom of 2 wonderful animal adoring children. Because I’m home throughout the day, your pet will get plenty of attention, playtime, and care. During their stay, your pet will experience all the best parts of our family just as if they were our own. When caring for your pets in a clients home, I do my best to adhere to all routines and schedules so the pets can feel as comfortable as possible. I will respect your home and keep everything clean, organized, and calm. I’m more than happy to send regular updates and photos so you can feel comfortable and at ease while you’re away. My goal is to provide a loving and safe environment for you and your pet so you can rest assured knowing that they are being taken care of to your standards.

She’s incredibly responsible, communicative, and genuinely loving—always going the extra mile to make sure our pups are happy, safe, and well cared for. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, Nicole is someone we trust wholeheartedly. We can’t recommend her enough as a pet caregiver!

Emerson M.
“Emerson is extremely good with dogs. she loves all animals and they seem to respond to her. She grew up in a home with more than one dog at any given time & has worked at a dog day care facility. She has been known to be called 'the dog whisperer", dogs can sense Emerson from across a street, they perk up and wag their tails unsolicited. Any dog owner would be lucky to book Emerson, she is kind, smart, trust worthy and reliable.”
