Heather, did a great job caring for my cat. She even brought a laser pointer to engage my cat in play and make her more comfortable. I highly recommend Heather and look forward to hiring her again in the future.

About: I’ve had pets my whole life (18 years!), so being around animals just comes naturally to me. I’ve cared for all kinds of pets—from chihuahuas and shitzus to corgis, huskies, Australian cattle dogs, bullies, and cats—so I’m comfortable with different personalities and energy levels. I love to keep up with high energy dogs who love to endlessly play, while I'm also just as patient and gentle with dogs who just want to sit back and relax! I have experience with senior dogs so I understand the extra attention and care they need. I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away! I’m a high school student with a pretty flexible schedule, so I have lots of free time to dedicate to pet care. Since I already love going on walks, taking dogs out for exercise and fresh air fits perfectly into my daily routine. Pet care is something I naturally make time for—I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, whether that’s going on walks, playing, or just keeping them company. I’m reliable and happy to adjust my schedule to make sure each pet gets the attention and care they need. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my main priority is keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions closely—feeding schedules, walk times, medications, and any specific preferences—so pets feel comfortable in their own environment. I’m very mindful of safety, making sure doors, gates, and leashes are always secure, and I keep a close eye on pets during walks and playtime. I also pay attention to their behavior and mood so I can respond quickly if anything seems off. I treat every home with respect and keep things clean and organized while I’m there. I also like to send updates and photos so owners can feel confident and at ease knowing their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for.

About: I've grown up in a dog house since I was little, and have always loved taking care of animals. Growing up I took care of our dogs, cat, frog, and my never ending bug farms. I've been the go to pet sitter for neighbors, friends, and family especially in high school. I've taken care of dogs both big, small, and everything in between. I also am good with dogs of all ages and am currently raising my little five month old terrier son so the puppy routine is already drilled in! I've taken care of many elderly dogs with various medical conditions, although each one is unique. If you have a dog with special needs please reach out with details and I will let you know if I'm confident I can accommodate them! I'm always happy to work with a little high energy trouble maker as I had a husky mutt growing up who gave me a real run for my money. If you need someone to take your dog on a walk/run that will knock them out if even for a little bit I'm happy to provide that relief! Additionally I also spent 6 years in a herpetology club which involved taking care of turtles, tortoises, snakes, lizards, frogs, toads, salamanders, and even hissing cockroaches. If you need someone to check in and make sure both their space (heat lamps, food, water, filters, tanks, etc.) and themselves are taken care of I would be very happy to meet some scaly friends. My schedule is fairly flexible as I do scheduled service work. Afternoon visits are when I'd be best available and I'm always happy to help on the weekends! Wether it's a play partner, someone who mysteriously brings snacks and food, or just keeping them company I'd be happy your family happy. I'm more than ready to give a high energy dog some good running in as well!

I was so impressed by Emily’s quick response and thoughtful communication. She was able to accommodate a short notice drop in and sent lots of pictures. I could tell my pup loved spending time with her and she sent a wonderful post-service update. Will definitely be requesting her for house sitting and drop ins in the future. 10/10 recommend.

About: I’ve owned and cared for animals my entire life. I’ve owned four beautiful dogs, Snapper, Buster, Treaka, and Cleo. I’ve also owned two cats, a tabby named Netty and a calico named Landscape. Landscape had a thyroid disorder during her lifetime, so I have experience administering medication. I also watched neighbor’s animals during their vacations. In addition to dogs and cats, I’ve owned a rat named Charlie, three guinea pigs named Blanka, Snickers, and Pocky, a tortoise named Archibald, and many many fish. I am very knowledgeable about care for many types of animals. I am a stay at home mom of three kiddos age four and under. I am able to change my schedule around to accommodate animal care usually. I have a fenced yard and a large lawn area if needed for home care. Any animal would need to be ok with young children being around. I am very detail oriented and flourish on lists and schedules so that would be greatly appreciated.

Aislin was a phenomenal cat sitter for our 20 year old tabby Gretchen. She was punctual with her visits and super communicative, which is always appreciated when I’m traveling and I have another person taking care of Gretchen. She happily arranged a meet-and-greet ahead of booking and made the whole process very easy. We would gladly have Aislin watch Gretchen again. Thank you, Aislin!

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities! I have a 3-year-old Australian Shepherd, so I know firsthand what it takes to care for a high-energy, crazy dog of my own! I’ve worked through training challenges and reactivity after he experienced a traumatic event as a puppy. Because of that, I have a lot of patience and empathy, especially with pups who need a little extra attention or structure. I also have two sweet cats at home and grew up around animals my whole life, so I’m totally comfortable with multi-pet households. Friends and family often trust me to care for their pets when they’re away, and I always make sure to stick to routines and give pets the love and attention they need while their humans are gone. Whether it’s a playful puppy, a senior dog who needs a gentler pace, or a cat who likes their own space, I’ve got you covered! Pet care fits naturally into my daily life, I already spend a lot of time walking, playing with, and caring for my own Aussie, so I love adding more furry friends to the mix! I’m off on weekends, work from home on Tuesdays, and my weekday schedule is generally flexible. I’m typically at work from 9–5, but if that’s too long for your pet to be alone, just let me know! I’m more than happy to flex my schedule when I can to make sure your pet gets the care and attention they need. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priority. I’m more than happy to follow any instructions you provide, down to the smallest detail, so your pets can stick to the routines they know and love. Whether it’s special feeding, medications, or just the way they like to be tucked in at night, I’m here to make sure they feel safe and cared for. In your home, I’ll treat your space with the same care and respect I would my own. I want both you and your pet to feel at ease, knowing they’re in loving hands. I’ll keep you updated along the way so you never have to wonder how things are going, just a little extra peace of mind while you're away.

About: Animals have always been a major part of my life. Along with years of caring for pets for friends, family, and neighbors, I worked at a professional pet boarding facility that partnered closely with a veterinarian. This experience gave me hands-on training in proper animal handling, health monitoring, medication administration, feeding routines, recognizing signs of illness or distress, and providing individualized care for animals of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. I am comfortable caring for puppies, senior pets, high-energy dogs, cats, and animals with special needs. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. In addition to my pet care experience, I have helped care for animals on family farms and am comfortable working with livestock and farm animals. I understand the importance of maintaining feeding schedules, monitoring animal well-being, and providing dependable daily care. I am also experienced with administering medications, including insulin injections for diabetic pets, and comfortable caring for pets with special medical needs. Whether your pet needs a long walk, playtime, medication, extra attention, or simply a trustworthy companion while you’re away, I will treat them like they’re part of my own family. My goal is to provide safe, compassionate, and reliable care that gives owners complete peace of mind. As a stay-at-home mom, I have the flexibility to work around your pet’s routine and provide the attention they deserve. I know that every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their habits, preferences, and needs. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, medications, or extra cuddles, I’ll care for your pets as if they were my own and keep you updated along the way. I believe pets thrive when they feel safe, loved, and understood. I take the time to learn your pet’s routine and provide consistent care that keeps them comfortable and happy. We have a gated dog park in my apartment community for safe exercise and playtime, and all outdoor activities are closely supervised. I follow your care instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications, and special needs, and I’m happy to provide updates and photos throughout their stay.

About: I love animals and currently have one 40lb pit terrier mix. My family is easy going on pet rules and treat animals as members of the family (no feeding from the table). We live in a pet friendly community with good lighting and many dog potty break stops and stations. Our house is 2 stories with space to put a crate in a secluded place for dogs who need quiet time. On weekends I would love to take them to dog parks (if they are comfortable with that) or on hikes (if they are people friendly). My husband (Gabe) is a stay at home parent and I work 4 days a week, we will be available for your animal's needs. Plus I love to take and send photos!

Caitlin was so fabulous with our little Piper. Piper spent the first 18 months of her life in and out of shelters and foster homes so she’s extra skittish. Caitlin was so kind, calm, and gentle and earned Piper’s trust within the first few drop ins. We’re so sad that Caitlin is moving out of the area but we’re grateful for the love and care she gave Piper and know she will be a great match with pets in her new area.

Our cat, Mittens, walked into our lives two months ago. She was a stray and her personality has proven to be difficult for all who know her. She has two modes, friendly and cuddly or violent. After scratching our nine year old neighbor who was trying to watch her while we were out of town as well as an adult neighbor who was also trying to help, I contacted Andrew to see if he could take over. Andrew was able to understand our complicated kitty and did a great job caring for her while we were gone. Mittens adored her time with Andrew, and minimized her attacks under his care. He spent time getting to know her and playing with her. He brought toys and cuddles. He offered helpful tips and resources for taming our spicy feline. I hope that Andrew is available when we next go out of town. I also hope that our spicy stray calms down. Thank you Andrew for making our time away one thousand times less stressful.
