“Michelle was awesome, she gave us the peace of mind of having our babies well cared for while we were gone. She is responsible and she truly cares!”


“My cat Felix loved Antonia’s drop in visits. He seemed super happy and enjoyed the playtime. You always hate to leave your pets when traveling, but it’s nice to have such an amazing sitter be able to make sure your pet is well cared for.”


About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats for over 20 years, pets are my passion! I am also a former Petshotel and Doggie Day Camp Manager for a national chain and have extensive experience handling dogs, cats, and small pets of all sizes and breeds. I am currently accepting small and medium sized dogs for in house day care and overnight stays. I specialize in small and delicate breed types, not usually suited for kenneling or vet boarding. All fur babies will be treated as family members while here! They can sit on the couch, sleep on the bed, and watch TV with us just like at home. Some larger "gentle giants" can be considered on a case by case basis, just reach out. I believe pets are family! All pets in my care are treated with loving and gentle guidance using only positive reinforcement. All dogs will remain on leash the entirety of their walk. We have a fenced in area off the back patio for bathroom breaks with wood chips as ground coverage. No grass of any kind for the safety of those pets with grass and skin allergies.

About: Hi, I’m Sydney! I grew up on a farm, so animals have been part of my daily life for as long as I can remember. I’m confident with everything from barn cats to reactive dogs, and I’m no stranger to giving meds—pills, topicals, even injections. Whether your pet needs a calm walk, some playtime, or just a little company while you’re away, I’ve got it covered. My flexible schedule means your pet gets reliable care and plenty of attention—because they deserve nothing less! Pet care fits perfectly into my current lifestyle because I have an open and flexible schedule. That means I can focus on giving your pet the attention they deserve—whether it’s a midday walk, an early morning visit, or a last-minute check-in. I’m not juggling a 9–5, so your pet gets a sitter who’s reliable, available, and fully present. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to stick closely to their normal routine—because pets feel safest when things feel familiar. Whether it’s refreshing food and water, going for a walk, playtime, or just offering some company and belly rubs, I’m all about making your pet feel comfortable and cared for. I’m respectful of your space, leave things how I found them, and always send updates so you know how your furry friend is doing while you’re away.

“The dogs loved her and I look forward to her watching them again. I had lots of peace of mind.”


“Erica stopped in to let our puppy Izzy out a few times during the week. She did a great job with taking care of Izzy and responded quickly to text messages. Izzy enjoyed the company! We will def. call Erica again to come play with our pup!!”

“Melanie did a great job checking on my rabbits. Everyone looked content when we got home, and it was lovely not to worry about them running out of water while we were away. Would definitely book Melanie again.”


About: I have worked with several different types, sizes, and personalities of dogs. I also have experience with older dogs and being sensitive to their needs as they age. Providing a calm and reasurring presence to my canine friends, whether they are excited to see me or feeling a little stressed with their owner gone. I try to give my animal companions the best quality of life possible for them. I really love what I do. I currently work part time so I am able to give lots of time spending with furry friends. Animal care has become part of my daily routine and I couldn't imagine life with out it. In others homes I keep the enviorment low key and peaceful so as not disrupt them. I try to keep them on a regular schedule so they know what to expect and can relax a bit more.

About: Let me provide you with peace of mind while you're away! I'm a licensed veterinary technician with many years of professional pet care experience. I began pet sitting when I was in high school, got my Bachelor's degree in zoology as well as my dog training certification, worked as a kennel manager for a boarding kennel after graduating college, then went back to school and became a licensed vet tech. Now I'm working part -time, which puts me in an ideal situation to offer some pet sitting services. I also have years of dog training experience, and I train and compete in dog agility in my spare time. As a former kennel manager and as a pet parent, I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust to care for your pets while you're away. I know that your pets are members of your family, and they deserve to be treated as such. I will care for your pets as I care for my own fur-babies. I can provide a safe, comfortable home-away-from-home for your dogs where they will get plenty of attention and interaction! My home includes 3 dogs and 2 dog-friendly cats. I have a fully fenced yard for the dogs. If your pet has any medical needs, I can provide them whatever they need. To provide the safest environment for your dog(s) as well as my own, I do request that your dog(s) be up to date on vaccines as well as flea/tick prevention and heartworm prevention before staying with us in our home. I also request that puppies be crate trained. As it has come up in the past, please be aware that I am NOT willing to use an electronic/shock collar on your dog while they are under my care. Please understand that I have a young child at home, and her safety is my top priority. For that reason, I can only board dogs that are child-friendly and gentle. If I believe that your dog(s) staying in our home will in any way cause a safety concern, I will decline the boarding request. I'm happy to answer any questions you may have, so please don't hesitate to contact me! *Holiday rates apply.* I'm currently working part -time at a local animal clinic, and I have availability to pet sit Fridays-Mondays. Longer stays can be considered on a case by case basis. I have a fully fenced, large yard at my home. I have friendly dogs who love to play, and I live on a quiet, low-traffic cul de sac if your dog enjoys leash walks.

About: I grew up with animals of all kinds and was always responsible for their care; it’s second nature for me. I take pride and joy in pet care and am very attentive and detail oriented for any pets with special needs or routines. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, cats, rabbits, and birds. ⏰ I work a full time job in midlothian. My work days end around 6 during the week and at 4 on Saturdays. I am typically off on Wednesdays and Sundays. With enough notice my schedule can be a bit flexible. I am very detail oriented and punctual. I take notes on feeding routines, any medication they may need, and exercise and playtime ✨ I prefer to have a meet and greet to insure compatibility and familiarity 💕

About: I've worked with dogs and cats professionally for over ten years now and also have experience with training. I love getting to know each dog and learning what they like best, whether that’s a quiet walk in the park or some snuggles on the couch and fetch in the backyard. I have experience with all types of dogs and always treat them as if they were my own. I’m currently working part time as a dog trainer so that will give me plenty of time to play with your pups! I’d love to gain regular clients that I can provide reliability for. I always work to ensure they safety of your pet and would love to know what you expect of your dog (whether that’s not jumping/pulling on walk, ect) and with a knowledge in training I can help reinforce the behaviors you like to see! I’m also very good at reading dog body language and love to see your pups feeling comfortable and confident in our adventures.

About: I have experience caring for a wide range of breeds and pride myself on being adaptable to meet the unique needs of your beloved companion. My own dog’s journey with arthritis has given me valuable hands-on experience in administering medications and providing attentive care, including basic first aid. Additionally, as a certified Nationally Registered Emergency Medical Technician (NREMT), I bring an added layer of confidence and expertise in handling your pet's health and well-being. I’m an early riser, so getting up early and starting the day with my dog, Kona is the perfect start. I WFH so I can take her out as often as she needs, your fur baby can too! We live on 10 acres of land. If you have an active baby, I love getting out for walks, hikes, and if they are behaved enough, I love throwing a stick or ball! More outside time the better! When I’m caring for your best friend (s), I will send lots of pictures and videos if you want! You can never take too many!

“I reached out to Sydney for dog sitting services to find such a quick response and availability from her. I’ve used Sydney twice now and will have her back in the fall while we’re on vacation. Highly recommended and will continue to use her for high quality care of my pets. Thank you Sydney for being so helpful ❤️”

Allison C.
“Allison is the BEST pet sitter ever. I have had many over the years. She loves to sit with my Tessa and just shower love on her. She is also really good at getting my animals to take their medications. I have a geriatric dog who has laser treatments for arthritis and needs to take about 18 pills a day and somehow Allison manages to find all the ones that my dog thinks she has hidden after she "pretends" to take them. I have Allison sleep over at my house when I am away for business as well. One time I was in the hospital for a stay that was supposed to be 3 days that ended up being 12. Allison made sure that my dog was taken care of even though I didn't have it scheduled with her and I know she was busy at the time. We also have a very fussy cat who makes a mess when she feels neglected. She has never once retaliated against us upon our returns from vacations when Allison is on the job. I trust her inherently with my animals. ”

Gretchen D.

“Gretchen has experience with a variety of different animals. My dog was provided a loving and stimulating environment with lots of personal attention. Gretchen was also great with sending me updates and pictures of my dog while I was away. Leaving my dog behind was much easier because I knew he was in great hands! I trust Gretchen without question and I highly recommend anyone looking for a pet sitter to use her!”

Ryan M.
“We had the pleasure of booking with Ryan. He took wonderful care of our senior cat and house! Our kitty needs medication 2x daily and leaving him with Ryan was such a relief. Caring for our cat isn’t something just anybody can do. It definitely takes a ‘cat person’ to care for our cat, Kitty is shy, has separation anxiety and just isn’t the friendliest cat. Ryan was everything we needed and knew how to handle him, his experience with cats made all the difference for us on our trip. He was very clean and kept our house even cleaner than when we left. We appreciated all the updates and we will absolutely be booking with Ryan again in the future!”
