“We were in town for vacation and found Stefanie to drop in and take care of our two senior Shih Tzus for walks and feedings for one of the days. She communicated clearly and regularly, which made it a great experience overall. This was the first time I’ve ever left my dogs with someone I didn’t know, and I felt completely at ease. Highly recommend!”
“Belle was great with our cat and dog. The cat was constantly in hiding, but Belle always made sure to check on her. And the dog had a fun time hanging out during their indoor and outdoor play. Would definitely recommend Belle for drop in visits.”

“Melanie is very good with the "fur babies". She takes the time to play with them and make them feel loved. She was prompt and timely on all her visits. She kept the house clean and orderly while we were away. I would highly recommend Melanie for any future "fur baby sitting" needs.”


About: I focus on making dogs and cats feel relaxed and at home. I’m patient with puppies and kittens who are still learning routines and very attentive with senior pets who may need extra support, calm environments, or special care. I always keep owners updated so they know their pet is safe, comfortable, and happy. I’m a college student with a flexible schedule. I’m typically free after 3 PM on weekdays, available on weekends, and often have breaks between classes that allow me to do drop-ins or walks. I’m happy to work with your schedule and help care for your pets when you need it! I follow your pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable, safe, and stress-free in their own home. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and care while keeping their environment calm and familiar.
About: I’ve cared for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities—from playful puppies to wise senior dogs. I’m experienced with giving medication, handling anxious or shy pets with patience, and sticking to your pet’s routine to keep them happy and comfortable. What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and attention to detail—I treat every pet like they’re my own, with lots of care, cuddles, and communication along the way! I will be working full-time on weekdays during the summer, but I’m still fully available for weekend bookings. For weekday care, my boyfriend—who also loves animals and has experience caring for pets—will be available to help with drop-ins, walks, and check-ins. Together, we make sure your pets are well cared for even during the workweek! If your pet needs extra attention during the day, I’m happy to work out a schedule that ensures they get all the love, walks, and snuggles they need. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I focus on creating a calm, loving, and safe environment. I follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible—from feeding times to walk schedules—so they feel secure and comfortable. I keep water bowls fresh, give plenty of attention and playtime, and make sure they get all the care they need, whether that’s cuddling on the couch or giving them space to relax. In your home, I treat it with the utmost respect and leave things just as I found them. Communication is key, so I always keep you updated with messages and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.

“Terri did a fantastic job taking care of my cats! Upon my return, I could tell she was detailed in her care of them and that she had taken her time when on the visit. I would not hesitate to ask Terri to watch my cats again, should the need arise!”

“Our dog and cat took to Taylor quickly. It's the fastest I've seen our dog take to a man she didn't know. Taylor is very reliable, courteous, and caring towards animals. He went above and beyond takimg care of ours. Highly Recommend!”

“Adreahna took great care of our kitty, and our kitty warmed right up to Adreahna. She checked in and uploaded pics of her, which we lived. Kitty wasn’t even mad when we got home! Thank you!!”

“Judy was an excellent pet sitter. She arrived a little early and greeted us and the dogs with a smile and friendly attitude. She updated us with messages and photos of the dogs. She even read her book to them and took them for a couple of long walks. We highly recommend Judy and would definitely use her again and recommend her to our friends.”


“Valerie did an amazing job checking in on our two labs while we were camping. We had a few days when we could not take the dogs with us on our adventures, so we are thankful we had someone take of our fur babies for walks, to water them, and interact with them. She took pictures during each visit for us to see how they were doing. Our fur babies were well taken care of during these check-ins, and we will definitely use Valerie next time we camp in the area.”

About: Hi there! Ive been caring for pets for over 20 years, and I truly treat every dog like one of my own.I have experience with everything from training energetic puppies to providing gentle care for senior dogs who need a little extra love and patience. At home, I have three dogs of my own-an 11 year old senior named Cassie Lou, a playful Australian Kelpie named Sage that is 5yrs old, and a curious 1 year old puppy named Pepper that is a Mini Aussie & Chihuahua mix. All of our dogs enjoy other dogs as well as children. I am familiar with all the unique stages of life. Over the years, I've helped friends, family and neighbors with walking, feeding, bathing and giving their pets lots of attention while they're away. You can count on me to make your pets feel safe, loved and right at home while you're gone. I do not work outside the home, so I am available 24/7 to care for your pets! My flexible schedule allows me to give them plenty of attention, walks, and playtime throughout the day. Your dog will feel right at home here! I only care for dogs and make sure each one gets the attention and comfort they deserve. Whether your pup prefers a cozy crate or to sleep on the bed, they're welcome to do whatever makes them most comfortable-even curl up on the couch. We take regular walks and tailor exercise to each dog's energy level, from relaxed seniors to playful puppies. Every boarding stay includes a FREE BATH, so your furry friend goes home happy, clean and loved. safety and comfort always come first here!
About: I’ve grown up with 2-6 dogs in my home at any given time. I bathe and groom my dogs. I currently have 5 dogs and 2 cats! My schedule is fairly free so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your pets!! I tend to be on the road every other weekend so some Fridays and Sundays I’ll only be able to provide care in the morning and at night. I used to live in a house where it was fenced in. But now the new house doesn’t have a fence but they don’t stray. There’s a river in the backyard that my dogs love to play in. I used to crate my dogs, they were just fine with it, but now they just sleep in the same room with me. I will care for your pets like they were mine!
About: I raised a puppy from 4 weeks old. I also have a cat that I raise and have been raising since she was less than a year old. I have a stay at home job so I am available anytime you need me day or night! So I am very flexible with your schedule and what you need. I offer any service cause I have open availability and can work around your schedule and availability. I also can travel to your home if you need me to.
About: I have always had a dog that I could share adventures with. I know the feeling when you are busy with work and need a reliable dog walker or house sitter that will care for your dog just as you would. Now that I have time, I would like to help others with that. I am available to housesit your dog most any weekend and beginning June 1 through August 15th, I am available to house sit most anytime. I have been a teacher for 20 years, so safety is always at the center of each decision. If I were caring for a dog in another family's home, I would be mindful of security, house alarms, locks, and also what the pet could possibly get into inside the home that could be dangerous. I would follow all requests and procedures in the home indicated by the family.
