“Kris was awesome! Sent many pictures of my cat while I was away, which eased me a lot since I get very nervous about leaving my cat. She was also very easy to communicate with and responded quickly”


About: I’ve always taken care of pets since I was a kid when friends or family went out of town. I love my own dog like my best friend and I always love playing with him and taking care of him. I’ve trained my dogs myself and I always love it! Happy to help in any way you may need. I work on tuesdays and thursdays and as a musician I play piano in my free time. I’m free 24/7 except for tuesday’s and thursday’s which i’m free after 2pm! At home I have a fence, a nice vest and leash for my very muscular dog, and I have trained him to where he’s capable of being off leash and at my side while walking!
“Paige did such a fantastic job with our dog Ollie! She was very thorough with her Rover Card and kept us informed during the whole visit! She’s also a fantastic dog photographer! Cannot recommend her enough, Ollie had so much fun with her and she kept these anxious dog owners very relaxed during her stay.”

“Gabriel did a fantastic job with communication, photos, and videos. He came right as expected and went above and beyond on the job. He is truly a wonderful pet sitter that anyone can trust!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs my entire life and have hands on experience with puppies, high energy dogs, and caring for multiple dogs at once. I work part time at a dog grooming shop as a bather, I interact with many different dogs. What sets me apart is my patience, attentiveness, and ability to adapt to each dog’s unique personality and routine. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, bathing, basic training reinforcement, and giving dogs plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. I genuinely treat every pet like my own and focus on making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while their owners are away. Pet care fits into my schedule as I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible but structured routine. I’m able to balance my job while still making time for pet care during my off days, mornings, evenings, and weekends. I’m reliable with planning ahead so I can make sure each pet gets consistent attention, walks, and care without feeling rushed. Even with a part-time job, I prioritize being fully present and dependable when I’m caring for animals. In my client’s home, I always follow their instructions closely to keep pets comfortable in their normal routine. I make sure pets are safe, supervised, and never left unattended for long periods. I keep water fresh, follow feeding schedules, and provide regular walks, playtime, and attention. I’m careful with doors, leashes, and any safety concerns to prevent escapes or accidents. I also respect the home by keeping it clean, organized, and treating it with care, just like I would my own.
“Kelly Lea did a phenomenal job caring my two kitties. They were well fed, and kept so happy with playtime and treats. It’s great to be able to enjoy your time away when you know that your fur babies are taken care off by such a caring and wonderful person as Kelly Lea. She kept us updated on their well being with messages and photos. She was on time to every visit even when she needed to adjust one of the visit times. Rest assured we will definitely book Kelly Lea for future needs, what a great experience for all.”

“Joa is awesome! He did such an incredible job taking care of Barky and making sure he got all of the details down. Barky’s (and our) comfort were Joa’s top priority. We greatly appreciate all he did and trust him to watch Barky again!”

“We could not have been in better hands than Brittney’s!! She was so very reassuring to us and our loved ones in her care. We received photos of each pet at each visit. Brittney went out of her way to make us all feel calm and cared for. She’s the best!!”

About: As a passionate dog lover with years of experience, I provide a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for your furry friends. I send a photo and brief update of your dog’s day every day of their stay so you can rest assured that they are cared for and having a good time! My personalized approach includes tailored walks, playtime, and plenty of cuddles, ensuring your pets feel loved and secure while you're away. I treat every dog like family, giving them the attention and care they deserve! I am available for boarding every day of the week and I accept most last minute bookings. I am also available for dog walking on weekdays after 4pm! I have a friendly puppy to keep your fur baby company and a fenced in yard for your dog to run free and play in. I have a lot of crate training experience and if you prefer, I can crate your pet according to your schedule. I keep a very clean and dog safe home, and have complimentary treats upon request.

About: I’ve dog sat and taken care of cats and even guinea pigs before! I’m about to start school to be a veterinary technician as well. I love to read about all different kinds of animals and learn about their needs. I start my schooling in about a month! I’ve dog walked and pet sat before, so I’m fairly confident in my ability to do it again. I’m available every day for now, with a 3 days notice of when I’m needed as a necessity. I don’t currently have a dog of my own, although I used to. I have my cat Juniper and my two guinea pigs Brennen and Dale! I love to take my cat outside sometimes for her own enrichment. Of course she takes flea and tick prevention and is harnessed and leashed while always being supervised! I am very strict when it comes to my pets happiness and wellbeing.
About: Animals lover here. Each animal has their own personality and I adapt to them all exactly what they want and need. If they want cuddles, they get cuddles. If they want space, they get space. I run every morning so having a dog or even cat to run with is even better! Also am an energetic and experienced pet care provider. I have experience caring for cats, dogs, and ferrets before. I am really flexible with my schedule. I am home full-time. I can take your animals anywhere you want. I will love all of your pets and I can guarantee you they will love me. I also have platforms on windows so cats can watch the world go by. Your pets will get all the attention they want. I am currently working remotely so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your furbabies! I like to get up before the sun rises and go for a run, I would absolutely love to be accompanied :) I do not have a fenced backyard. Though the creek is fully around my back yard, my dogs know not to go across the creek. Maybe, my two friendly dogs will help with accompanying yours.
About: I have had a dog all my life and I love animals. Of all kinds!! Since I have had a dog all my life I know how to take care of dogs and I have also been volunteering at my local humane society at home for about 6 years. I have also worked in a vet clinic for 3 years. So I have experience with giving medication of any kind, I can also trim nails, clean ears, give them baths, etc. I also love to give dogs walks. I care for animals so much. I love to spoil animals because I feel like they deserve so much more love than they get. And that they are just too good for us, and that’s why I love them so much. Monday- Wednesday I work 8-5, Thursday I work 8:30-5:30, Friday I work 8:30-1 but every 4th Friday I work 1-5:30 and I am off Saturday and Sundays so I will be more than happy to work around your schedule. But I will be more than happy to go over before and after work. I will play outside or inside with you pet. I can easily crate them as well if you crate your animals when you are away. I can take them to a dog park near by as well if you like. At home with my pets I play with them with their toys, give them treats, have them run in my backyard and I give them lots of pets.

“We had a wonderful experience with Amanda! Our kitty ended up having some health issues just prior to us needing to leave and Amanda was more than flexible and accommodating. It was Comforting to know our kitty was in such good hands while we were gone.”


About: My husband and I have many years of experience in caring for pets in a variety of settings. Prior to welcoming our sweet baby boy, we boarded dogs and cats in our home and fostered lots of pets. I have also worked with dogs in several professional settings, including vet assistant, daycare attendant, and grooming. Now, we happily offer drop in visits in your home! Your pet gets to stay where they are familiar and we will make sure they are well cared for while you are away. Josh and I have a very flexible schedule. We will work with you to ensure your pet has all of their needs met while you are away! Josh and I both understand dog and cat body language and approach each pet with their preferred energy. Some pets love an energetic and exciting visit, while others prefer a calm and quiet time. We cater to the personality and needs of your pet!
