“Big thanks to grey for taking care of my puppy when I needed help last minute. He’s only 9 weeks old so he needs constant attention, it’s no easy task! I am super appreciative & I know my little pup is too!”


“Lillie was great with the dogs! She was reliable and communicative for our overnight booking. She was flexible when my plans changed and even tidied up the house! I left her detailed instructions which she followed seamlessly and she sent plenty of happy and cuddly dog pictures. She has quickly become my go-to sitter that I trust.”


“Ginger is by far the best pet sitter we have ever had! From the moment we met her, we knew that our furry kids would be very well cared for. Both of our dogs really love her. For the very first time, we can go out of town and not worry a bit about our pets. What a relief! Ginger kept in close contact with us and sent pictures frequently. She stayed in our home and left it in immaculate condition. I highly recommend giving Ginger a try. You'll be very glad you did!!”


“This was the first time we had left Pip, our 12 year cat with anyone. We were nervous about how he would do having someone in his house. Could not have gone better. Dixie was great! Always sending updates, pictures and videos. Very obvious Pip was comfortable with her and glad to be in his own home. Will definitely schedule with Dixie again.”



“Pamela quickly became like part of the family. Elliott was so excited to see her each day. She gave him plenty of entertainment, and was attentive and appropriate in her care. We were able to leave Elliott with her with perfect peace of mind knowing he was in competent and caring hands.”


“Sarah confirmed everything in advance and asked great questions so we were on the same page. She was on time and took great care of my two dogs while we were away for the whole day. She is kind and friendly. We will use her again!”


“Katherine is a blessing. We left our trio of furbabies for a night and they were very well taken care of during our trip. We have already booked her for two more house sittings!!”


About: 🐾 We treat every pup that visits our home with the love and tender care they deserve. Whether it’s playing with them in our fenced back yard, taking walks around downtown Seneca, or simply lounging in the living room, we treat every furry guest like part of the family. We enjoy taking many photos and videos of your babies and writing frequent updates to let you know they are well and in good hands. As life-long pet lovers, we have experience caring for young energetic pups, and those mature friends that may need special care and attention. So, if you just need to drop off your best bud for the day so they don’t have to be alone while you work or doing errands, or for an extended stay while you enjoy a well-earned trip, we are here to be your pet’s home away from home. We offer multiple-pet discounts!

About: I've been taking care of animals from fish to Llamas since I was a young child. Nothing makes me happier than being with animals. I've been taking care of my friends' pets for so long, I figured I'd make help other folks too. I make my own schedule currently, so if we are a good fit, it's no problem to make my schedule work around what you need. I am more than happy to accommodate any specific requests and or needs that you may have. I trust your judgment and know how important it is to respect the wishes of the pet owner. Just let me know what you need and I'll be happy to do it.

About: I’m trustworthy, friendly, and attentive, providing loving care for your pet as if they were my own—ensuring their happiness, safety, comfort, and well-being every day. I’m currently unemployed and available most hours of the day to help with you and your pet’s needs, providing flexible, attentive, loving, and dependable care. I live with my parents and their dogs, who are not great with others—so I’m only available for reliable pet care exclusively at your home.

“My booking with Kylie was great! We worked out a time for her to come meet me and my dogs before her scheduled house/dog sitting appointment and the dogs loved her right away. She was very responsive while I was out of town, even sending pictures of the dogs lounging on the couch and loveseat. I arrived home early and she prompted modified the booking to reflect that so Rover would change the amount due. Very pleasant woman and I will absolutely be using her again!”


About: I’ve taken care of pets my whole life and have had a wide variety of pets. I am comfortable taking care of senior pets puppies and ones that require special needs. I have a flexible lifestyle and flexible scheduling and can provide the needed time to care for your pet and will provide updates on a consistent basis. I have a large yard and will keep pets on leash if required but I am located in a rural area a good distance from any major road.

About: I’ve taken care of pets of all shapes and sizes as well as house sat for 4 years. I also own a big dog and have owned medium dogs and cats when I was younger. I’m currently working from home so I’m available most days, anytime, except Sunday mornings. I am comfortable house/dog sitting on holidays and extended periods of time as well. I’m more comfortable with watching pets in their own space so they are comfortable too. Pets need lots of exercise, play, and attention. I like to stick to the pets schedule so they have an easier time while their family is away! It’s also important to me that they aren’t alone long. Company, care and companionship are essential! Trust is also essential. I’m very organized and to myself. You would never have to worry about me rummaging in your things or areas I’m not designated to.

About: I currently work for a dog boarding and daycare facility. My whole life has revolved around my passion and love for animals. In the future I hope to become a certified dog trainer and I am already on my way to it. I am dog and cat CPR certificated. I have years of experience caring for all sizes and age groups of pets. I work full-time at a dog boarding and daycare facility. I love having a job where I can work with animals and I’m happy about going to work. I have a very flexible schedule and can accommodate to you and your pets needs. My main priority for pet care is making sure the pet is safe, happy and healthy. I also want to make sure that pet parents are comfortable with the approaches I use and the incentives given to the animals. I want the pet care I provide to be a happy and mutually beneficial experience for both the animals and the parents.

“Our experience with Mary as our dog sitter was first rate. She took excellent care of our Havanese, Gucci. She stayed at our home overnight and she was exceptional. She is very kind, trustworthy and our dog didn’t even realize we were away due to Mary’s sweet demeanor with her. We will call on Mary again when the need arises. We highly recommend her without hesitation.”
