Tiffany took great care of our guinea pig and fish while we were out of town for a week during the holidays. She is an amazing petsitter and went above and beyond the care we were hoping for. Our guinea pig had last minute health issues, and Tiffany took on extra medication administration as well as wound care. She did an amazing job, and we can’t thank her enough.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, caring for them through every stage from playful puppies to sweet senior years. That lifelong experience has given me a deep understanding of their needs, personalities, and behaviors. For the past eight years, I’ve also been the dedicated owner of a large dog, so I’m confident handling bigger breeds, strong pullers, and high-energy pups. Safety, consistency, and patience are always my priorities. Whether your dog needs structured exercise, a relaxed stroll, or attentive in-home care, I treat every pet like they’re my own with reliability, love, and plenty of tail-wagging attention. I work part-time at my current job so I am available at different times during the day! I have a flexible schedule so I can help you give your best friend some love or a break out of the house during your busy days. I care for pets in a way that keeps their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. In a client’s home, I follow all feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions, and household guidelines exactly as requested. I make sure pets receive plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, affection, and clean water at all times. I’m attentive to behavior changes and always prioritize safety during walks and visits.

Savannah is a dream! So professional and kind, an excellent communicator and a quick problem solver. Savannah cared for our chickens for nearly three full weeks and watched over the house and plants. She provided regular updates, was intuitive to care for the girls in the hot weather and allowed my time away to feel so much more at ease. I was so thrilled to return with thriving plants, and happy, calm chickens. Will definitely look to book with her again in the future, and recommend fully!

Samuel was assisted by his sister, who handled a couple of the scheduled days. Both of them were great! They had a wonderful attitude and were eager to help when I needed to make occasional small requests or adjustments to my instructions. Very responsive and prompt. I will definitely hire him (or both of them) again!

Sigrid was great! She came first for a meet and great to meet Ozzy and make sure he would be comfortable with her. Then when she came for the drop in visit, after feeding Ozzy she spent extra time with him —playing fetch and walking with him until he was worn out. She kept us updated with photos and videos during the visit and it was clear that Ozzy was having a great time with her. We are grateful that Sigrid took extra time to get to know Ozzy and make sure he was at ease with her — that’s not always easy for Ozzy, as he was mistreated in his former life. Sigrid is clearly a true dog lover, and I highly recommend her. Your pup will be in good, capable and loving hands with Sigrid!

About: I have hands on experience caring for my own terrier since he was a puppy and is now 9 years old. Through friends and family I’ve also spent time caring for their dogs and cats. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, and check-ins. I love animals and getting to know their personalities. I want to make sure they feel loved and cared for while their owners are away. I currently work at a school but am off during the summer. Which gives me the flexibility schedule. I’m available weekdays in the morning, afternoon, and evenings. Some Sundays depending on the day. I am happy to communicate and work with each pet owner to find a schedule that works best. I treat every pet as if they are my own and try to keep up with their routine. I follow feeing instructions, make sure pets have fresh water, playtime, exercise. I feel comfortable providing updates and photos to make pet owner feel at ease. My priority is to make sure pets feel safe and cared for.

About: What sets me apart is the calm, cat-focused home environment I provide, combined with over 6 years of hands-on cat care experience. I specialize in creating a low-stress, clean, and structured space where cats can feel safe and comfortable, whether they are playful, shy, or senior cats needing extra patience. I pay close attention to each cat’s individual needs and routines, from feeding and enrichment to litter box hygiene and daily observation of behavior. I’m also experienced in giving gentle care and medication support when needed, always prioritizing the cat’s comfort and emotional well-being. Most importantly, I treat every cat like family—offering consistent affection, one-on-one attention, and a peaceful home environment designed to help them relax and feel secure while their owners are away. I work part-time and am home most of the time, which allows me to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day. Pet care is naturally integrated into my daily routine, including feeding, playtime, litter maintenance, and regular check-ins. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to give pets the attention, companionship, and supervision they need. My home is designed to be a safe and secure environment for pets. It has multiple layers of doors, a fully fenced yard, and security cameras at the front for added safety. All doors are kept closed at all times to prevent any chance of escape. I also have a calm, controlled indoor space with no dogs, no children, and a clean, structured setup for cats. I prioritize trust, safety, and routine—ensuring every pet feels secure, supervised, and comfortable at all times. Each cat is carefully monitored, and I maintain a quiet, stress-free environment where they can relax and feel at home.

About: I have been walking dogs everyday for most of my adult life! I know how important it is for dogs to have daily exercise for physical and mental health.

About: I will see to it that your beloved pet is well taken care of, loved and given the opportunity to play outside and enjoy the outdoors whenever possible. I am an avid hiker and trail runner and, if allowed, would love to share that with your pet! I have had two dogs in my life and both of them taught me patience among other things. I can handle energetic dogs and I can also tend to elderly dogs as well. I am happy to tailor my service in any way that might serve your pet better and I'm always open to any and all feedback. Although I do hold a 9-5, full-time job, my availability is very flexible on weekdays and weekends with some notice.
