“Mary did an excellent job watching our cat Beau which allowed us to relax during our vacation. She updated us by sending photos and we could tell our cat was comfortable with her. We would book with her again. Thank you Mary (“Meow-y”!)”

“We are always nervous going out of town and leaving our two kitties at home. Mary made sure they were well taken care of while we were gone and gave us peace of mind. Would definitely recommend!”

“Sue was great - when she came by to meet my cat, she asked great questions and was clearly an experienced pet sitter. Her communication throughout was wonderful, and I was so relieved to have great care for my cat while I was away!”

About: Hi there! I’m Katie, a lifelong dog and cat mom who understands that pets are family. I’ve had animals my entire life and recently trained my energetic cattle dog to earn his AKC Canine Good Citizen certification. You can count on me to be dependable, communicative, and genuinely invested in your pet’s happiness. Whether it’s a mid-day walk, a drop-in for playtime, overnight house sitting, doggy daycare, or boarding in my home, I make sure every animal feels safe, loved, and cared for. When I’m not hanging out with furry friends, I’m building a therapy business for women, so compassion, calm presence, and responsibility are part of everything I do. Your pet’s comfort and safety always come first. I’ll keep you updated with photos, notes, and peace of mind while you’re away. If you’re looking for a professional, trustworthy sitter who will treat your pets like family, I’d love to meet your furry loved ones! I’m an entrepreneur building my own business, so my schedule is very flexible. I’m home most days and can easily accommodate walks, drop-ins, daycare, boarding, or house sitting. My flexible routine allows me to give each pet plenty of time, attention, and care throughout the day. Safety, comfort, and love are always my top priorities. When pets stay in my home, I create a calm, structured, and fun environment where they can relax, play, and feel at ease. I follow their normal routines as closely as possible and make sure they get plenty of exercise, affection, and enrichment throughout the day. My home is clean, secure, and pet-friendly, and I never leave animals unattended for long periods. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat your space with the same respect I give my own. I follow all instructions carefully, keep things tidy, and make sure your pets stick to their usual schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest. My goal is for both you and your pets to feel completely safe, happy, and loved while you’re away.
About: I have been honored to care for dozens of pets over my 37 years. Pet parents have trusted me with dogs, big and small, old and young, cats, reptiles and fish. Heck, I'm also an aspiring horticulturist and will take care of your house plants and garden while you're out. IMPORTANT NOTE FOR HOUSESITTING: I would love to house sit for you, however I'm only limited to clients who would allow my two small house trained dogs to stay with me as well. They would never be left alone at the clients homes. I am currently freelancing, which gives me more time to be at home. I am happy to spend as much or as little time with your fur baby. Your Pets comfort and safety will be prioritized. I will ensure they are treated with as much care as I would treat my own pets.
“Stacy did amazing again with our springer Gracie! She always goes above and beyond. We feel so comfortable knowing that she is so well taken care of when we are out of town!!”
“Kristen is so reliable and willing to help out. Our grouchy pussycat has become much more friendly due to Kristen's patience. We're grateful she is in our life. Thank you so much Kristen”

“Maddie was great with my 1yr old kitten! She was great at communicating and sent lots of daily pictures. My apartment was clean when I returned too! I’d definitely recommend Maddie!”

“Kelsey kicks so much ass. I felt like my pet was extremely well taken care of and appreciated the communication that was made to keep schedules of care. Will definitely be seeking thier services again~”

“Lynn always does such a great job checking in on our cats. Always sends pictures and lets me know about the small things I may want to know about while I’m away (behavioral tendencies of the cats, etc.). Thank you Lynn for caring about our pets as much as we do!”

“Always appreciate your help with the cats, Peggy! Both Ernie & Koko are used to you now and comfortable with your kind care! Thanks again for being so flexible & helping with them when we travel. 🙏”

About: I have over 10 years of experience with dog sitting and house sitting, and I genuinely love spending time with animals. I feel confident in my ability to understand dogs’ individual needs, personalities, and routines, and I take pride in providing attentive, compassionate care. I have no breed restrictions and can generally accommodate dogs with special needs, medications, or specific care requirements. I enjoy working with pets of all ages—from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. In addition to dogs, I also love cats and am happy to help care for them as well. I’m even open to assisting with other animals, including small livestock, while owners are away. I believe it’s incredibly important to respect your home. Trusting someone to care for your pets and your space is a big deal, and I always make sure to leave homes in the same condition they were left. Service Types & What to Expect: House Sitting: This is the most comprehensive option and is ideal for pets who do best in their own environment. I spend extended time in your home, follow your pet’s normal routine, provide feeding, bathroom breaks, playtime, companionship, and any special care needed. I typically do an evening bathroom break around 10–11 PM, return home to sleep, and come back first thing in the morning to continue care, however, I can accommodate overnight stays as requested. Drop-In Visits: Drop-ins are shorter visits focused on essentials such as feeding, bathroom breaks, litter box cleaning, medication, and some attention or playtime. A walk may be included depending on timing and your pet’s needs, but drop-ins do not necessarily prioritize or guarantee a walk. Dog Walking: Walks are dedicated walking sessions. These visits are focused on exercise, fresh air, and safe, enjoyable walks tailored to your dog’s pace and energy level. I typically don’t leave animals alone for more than 4–6 hours. I do have dogs of my own, so I rotate between locations to ensure both your pets and mine receive proper care and attention. Your pets’ comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priority. My life revolves around the care that I provide for my pets. I never leave the pups alone for longer than four hours at a time. I walk my dogs four times a day and on weekends, take them on adventures to the lake or on the trails. I only host pets in my home for close friends and family, however I do have a doggy door and a fully fenced in yard. Opening your home to a stranger is no small thing and I never take it lightly. I treat my clients home with respect and always make sure to leave the home in the condition in which it was left.
