“Chandrea is an incredibly dependable, empathetic and trustworthy individual with a natural affinity for all things cats and dogs. Her organizational skills are exceptional and she is highly skilled at reading animal body language, including caring for two senior dogs who can be a bit temperamental and sassy in their golden age! I highly recommend Chandrea’s services if you are looking for somebody who will take extremely good care of your furry friends with exceptional patience and diligence.”

About: Hello! I’ve had dogs my whole life (yorkies, labs, german shepherds) so I have a lot of experience with different breeds and their mannerisms. I love to play with animals and give endless belly rubs! I am a medical student and have varying ability. I’m free almost every day as I just watch lectures at home. I’m just not available during the times I have exams or rotations. 90% of the week I’m free though! I am a big lover of animals so if you have a needy/clingy cat or dog, I’m the perfect sitter for you!! I’m happy to vacuum up around litter boxes, handle their waste, walk/play. (:
12. Takima W.
“Takima was SO great with my 1 year old pup She suggested a meet and greet at his favorite dog park, which I thought was a fantastic way to interact with him. My pub is friendly but doesn’t trust too easily. Takima was VERY patient, so friendly and he warmed up to her almost immediately!! Highly recommend and whiskey & I will definitely”
13. Jessica J.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs, we currently have 4, I’ve helped train them, I love all breeds, but I also can ignore the puppy eyes when they need correcting. I’m currently unemployed so I have all the time to fit the needs of any animal, baby or senior. I do go home every morning when I sit to feed my ferret. We have 4 dogs, however one doesn’t get along with new animals, so I will only be available to house sit. I’ve dog-sat for many family friends, and am good about keeping to the pet’s schedule.
14. Janelle R.
“Janella was so great with my Colby Jack boy. Upon the first meeting, he loved her. Reliable and timely. One day i forgot to put the keys out and she still found a main ten entrance person and got in to walk Colby Jack! Definitely really loves pets!”
15. Hollyn D.
“Hollyn went above and beyond my expectations. I feel like she treated my dog and cat as if they were her own. She keeps me informed and is punctual. I would love to hire her again.”
16. Chelsea L.
“Chelsea is my go-to sitter to care for my 2 dogs and cat whenever I go out of town. I’ve had issues in the past with pet caregivers who do the bare minimum and don’t spend time with my babies, but Chelsea is the type of person to go above and beyond every time. I can always leave town fully confident my pets are getting loved and taken care of properly. All of my animals are rescues and are typically skittish around new people but with Chelsea’s experience caring for her own rescue, she’s patient and they have grown to love her so much :) 10/10 would recommend her service!”
17. Lo F.
“Lo is a great pet sitter! Not only is she patient, she is sweet and kind. She is attentive and understands the needs of my pup.”
18. Shelby G.
“Shelby is absolutely fantastic with dogs! My little one can be quite demanding of love and attention. Shelby shared photos and videos of Sienna playing with her two dogs throughout the duration. I am going to ask Shelby to dog sit every time I am out of town, I know Sienna is in good hands!”
19. Maria C.
About: I've had many pets growing up. Ive taken care of my friends cat for 6 months, coming by and providing food and play time. I currently care for my 14yr cat and I love animals of all shapes and sizes. I do have a full time job. I'm willing to come by during my lunch break or after work 2 or 3 times a week for some TLC. I ensure that animals stick to their usual route, have treats to stay near me, and make sure they have plenty of food and water. Portions vary per owner and so do the limitations of treats. You tell me the quantity and I will stick to it. Everything you do to get your fur baby ready for a walk, I will do too.
20. Sandra K.
“Sandra is the most responsible, detail-oriented, caring, and hardworking person I know. She has had her cat, Lulu, for over a year now, and she meets her every need with unwavering dedication. Thanks to Sandra's meticulous care, Lulu is not only comfortable in her environment but also healthy and thriving. Sandra's compassion led her to adopt Lulu, and she ensures that Lulu receives the proper care and attention every animal deserves. Her dependability extends beyond animals to people. On numerous occasions, she has gone out of her way to help me. When I was dealing with a known tragedy at MSU, Sandra drove to my campus and back, providing much-needed support during a difficult time. She continuously monitored my health when it was declining, showing an extraordinary level of concern and empathy. Sandra's ability to balance care for both animals and humans is a testament to her exceptional character. Her big heart and dedication make her an ideal fit for this role. I have no doubt that she will provide the absolute best care and treatment to those dogs, just as she has done for Lulu and for me. Her commitment to the well-being of others, is truly inspiring to me.”
