“Kate was a wonderful dog and house sitter! Our two dogs were better off then when we left as Kate did some training with them. They took lots of walks and seemed very happy and healthy. The house was great as well.”
“We are so thrilled to have Evelyn sit with Smily while we were away. Evelyn ensured that we were well informed of the goings on with our dog and home, and even went above and beyond (the house was cleaner than we left it, I'm sure. We could tell that Smily was happy and loved! We highly recommend, and look forward to booking again.”
“David was wonderful with our anxious dog while we were away at a wedding. So good in fact that she appeared to lose her anxiety issues all together. He is clearly very experienced with animals and they are very receptive to him. He knew exactly how to work with her to lower her anxiety levels throughout a long stay. We are so grateful to have found someone like him for our dog!”
“Nicole was just excellent with our dog Josie. She handled Josie’s anxiety so well and did so much to make sure Josie had a good time! She kept us updated frequently, and asked all the right questions. We would not hesitate to book Nicole again!”
“Our two pups were happy, well fed, and calm while Julia cared for them over a long weekend. It was such a relief not to worry while we traveled. Instead we received periodic updates and photos of our two safe and slightly spoiled dogs. Thanks, Julia!”
About: I have two golden doodles who mean the world to me, but aside from my own pets i have made sure to surround myself with animals my whole life so far (I'm 27 currently) i grew up helping out friends and neighboors with animal care. to me pets are not just pets they are family. I love being outdoors going for walks myself so I take a great deal of pride being able to help someone with the joy in their life and incorporating it into what I already love to do. I currently work full time monday-Thursday with friday, saturday,and sunday off. I will be available any of those three days off for any service someone is requesting, and I am open to commuting aswell. I have two golden doodles who I treat them same as my closest and dearest friends/family. It would be no different with anyone else. One of my biggest beliefs is that respect and kindness speaks for itself and goes a long way so im very geared towards the needs, wants, requirements ect... that a client has or is requesting.
About: For five years I have been pet sitting for coworkers, family, and friends. I have cared for small to large dogs, some lazy and many very high energy! I love being able to play with the pets to get their energy out and give them a good petting afterwards. Generally, I am available both ends of the day and most weekends. My full time job is flexible for the most part and can create my schedule to accommodate different gigs. I primarily have experience with overnight pet sitting at the client’s house. I am comfortable with both rural and more city environments. Privacy is important for me, so I will always respect the client’s privacy of their home. If uncomfortable with overnight stays, I will gladly travel to the client’s house in the morning and evenings to care for their pets.
“Kahlan took such great care of my home and my special needs dog. She even dried some laundry I left in the wash by mistake and left the house immaculate. My pup loved her immediately. She is an excellent communicator and sent pics of my dog daily. She is very trustworthy. I will definitely be hiring her again.”
“This is the first time we’ve gone away since rescuing our two dogs. Mark was great with the boys and he took wonderful care of them. We will absolutely use Mark again and this means we trust him implicitly.”
“Jacquelyn was absolutely amazing with our 1.5 year old lab, Ruthie! It was our first time leaving her with someone new and it was so amazing to work with someone so responsive, assuring, trustworthy, and responsible. Ruthie loved her! We will absolutely be using Jacquelyn again and highly recommend!”
“Bambi was so easy to work with. The pups and kitten were in such amazing spirits when we returned, and the house was even cleaner than we left it! She was very responsive, and even took a trip to the house before the stay to meet the gang, and get to know the place. Highly recommend.”
About: Hello folks, I am an experienced animal caretaker with a background in fostering pets. I have cared for dogs, cats, other domestic pets, and farm animals. My clients, friends and family have entrusted me to watch their animals since I was 12. I believe that direct communication with pet owners will allow me to provide a safe and engaging experience for your animals. I work part-time from 10 am - 2 pm throughout the week. My work days change frequently but I am available outside of these hours for your caretaking needs. I will not be providing services in my home at this time. For pet sitting and walking services, I am available to stay in your home or do daily check ins. My goal is to be an accessible source for your animal while you travel or are at work. I will be available 24/7 via email or text after you book my services. Please provide me with any medical, dietary, or enrichment needs for your animal when you book my services. I always adhere to my clients wishes and will do my best to stick with your pet’s daily routine while in my care. If you have a dog who is friendly, I can provide additional enrichment with my three year old pup Zeus.
About: I am a well experienced dog owner, having had at least one dog since I was 8. I currently have two dogs, Moose and Banyan. They get along well with other dogs and people. I love dogs, cats, and animals of any kind. I am highly respectful and dependable, with references I can provide if desired. I have reliable transportation and a private property that I own. There is no fence, however, there are six acres. If you want to get pictures and check ins, even videos I’m your pet sitter! If you want minimal updates and to not worry about a thing, I’m also your pet sitter! I also have experience providing medications and can keep continuity with your training preferences. Thank you! I work from home most days. Other days I am flexible to come home for restroom breaks or bring them along. When I work from home I am near the animals. A client’s pet will be treated like my own. I have half the house where pets are allowed and if needed I can separate animals into different areas of the house.

I can tell she is an animal lover and really cares about their well being. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone.”
