About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who believes every pet deserves care that meets their unique needs — whether that’s a fun, stimulating walk or a calm, reassuring visit. I’ve raised my own dog from puppyhood to adulthood and spent years learning about enrichment games, and training methods that build confidence and trust. I’ve spent time with multiple rescue dogs and I understand how to give anxious or excitable dogs the space and structure they need to feel safe. During walks and drop-in visits, I tailor the experience to your pet — mixing play, training reinforcement, and mental stimulation. I’m attentive to body language, use calm communication, and always prioritize safety, keeping dogs under threshold and away from stress triggers. Whether your dog thrives on adventure or needs a gentler touch, you can count on me to show up with patience, consistency, and care. I’m also comfortable with basic grooming, administering medication, and supporting senior pets. Your pets are family — and I’ll treat them like my own. I work part-time, so I have plenty of flexibility during the day for pet care. I’m usually available on weekdays during normal business hours — great for midday walks, drop-in visits, or keeping pets company while you’re at work. I can sometimes do early evenings or weekends with a little notice. Caring for pets fits naturally into my daily routine, and I love spending my free hours making sure they’re happy, exercised, and well cared for. I treat every pet like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable during our time together. During drop-in visits, I follow your routines closely — whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, or giving medication — so your pet gets the care they’re used to. I’m careful with doors, leashes, and anything else that keeps your pet safe, and I always make sure your home stays respected and tidy. I love sending updates and photos so you can see how your furry friend is doing while you’re away.

“Amanda played with our cats a lot while checking on them and also cleaned all their bowls and eating mats without us even asking! She went the extra mile to make our kittens feel loved and happy while we were away and to make us know our kitties were in good hands. She provided tons of pictures of the cats and of everything she did with them. Some of them were hilarious! We will totally hire Mandy again whenever we need kitty care. She is also so nice at them that they love her! They were kind of disappointed to see us walk in the room instead of her! lol 😂😂😂 we totally recommend her, she is awesome at kitten care. Thanks Mandy!”

“Great sitter! Took such good care of my cats while we were out of town. Very communicative and took lots of great photos so I knew my kitties were well cared for.”

“Julia was fantastic. We needed someone to drop in for our chocolate lab while we were away for a softball tournament. I realized he needed two drop ins and she was very accommodating. She was punctual, friendly, and took good care of our boy. Would recommend Julia 🙂”

About: About Me: I adore animals of all kinds! Every pet is unique, with their own quirks and personalities, and they each deserve specialized care. With several years of experience walking dogs for neighbors and pet sitting, I understand the importance of providing a personalized, loving experience. I work remotely, so my schedule is flexible and I can cater to your pet's specific needs. My Fur Family: I grew up with a small, fluffy dog named Gracie, and she taught me the joys of training, from potty training to crate training, and teaching her all the fun tricks she knows! My current roommate is an American shorthair cat named Eila, though we mostly call her Miss Bean. I work remotely, so my schedule is flexible for both walking dogs and house sitting. I am also generally available on the weekends with a bit of notice! Pet safety and comfort is my top priority! We will discuss your pet's habits, hygiene, routines, and health to ensure I can give them the best care possible.

“Adriene was AMAZING with our two dogs, Chole and Luna! She gave them such love and attention. She communicated with us while we were away. This made us feel so comfortable. We knew they girls were being well cared for. We highly recommed Adriene!”

“Everything was awesome!”

“Emerson was fantastic. I’ve never left my cats alone before so I was incredibly nervous. Emerson communicated clearly the whole time and asked very thorough questions. My cats seemed to warm to her very quickly and they are pretty shy so that’s really saying something. Her updates were informative and helped put my mind at ease while we were away. 10/10 Would recommend.”

“Amanda did her job well! Margaret is relatively low maintenance, so I am glad she's safe during my travel!”

“Nancy has been amazing with my dogs!!! You can tell she is a true animal lover, because she cares about the details. She made last minute arrangements for us to meet and greet and adjustments to a few of our schedule stays, so she is also very willing to be as flexible as her schedule/life allows. Nancy sends photos and videos of my nuggets every stay. She has even checked in to see how my dog was doing with no upcoming/pending visit, so I know they are in genuinely loving hands under her care.”

Jessica M.

“Alison was incredible! She met and exceeded our care instructions and expectations, we know that Henry was so well cared for during our vacation. Her updates and pictures were detailed and adorable! Can't recommend Alison enough!”

Kevin F.

Catherine M.

“Sabrina was fantastic! Really appreciated her help and she was great with the kitties and their meds.”

Alexandra K.

“Lisa is a fantastic cat sitter. She dropped by to check in on our three cats while my husband and I were on vacation. She made sure our cats were well fed, emptied the litter robot when needed, and provided love and attention to the fur babies while we were away. Lisa is very responsive over text, which is so helpful. 10/10 will book again.”

Ashley F.

“Stephanie was wonderful! She communicated about her visits every time and sent multiple pictures of my cats 🐱 I would definitely recommend her to others and will request her again in the future!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and am a huge animal lover. I have a dog of my own and know firsthand how much care, attention, and love each pet deserves. With a very flexible work schedule, I’m able to walk or visit your pup during the workday to give them the exercise, attention, and care they need. I would be thrilled for the opportunity to care for your pet, and will treat them like one of my own! Available weekdays M-F and select weekends. Able to send photos so you don’t miss out on the fun! With a flexible work schedule, I am available M-F mornings and afternoons (and some select weekends), offering them care and relief when they need it most! Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I walk your pup in their own familiar neighborhood, keeping a close eye on surroundings, and follow your preferred routines. Whether it be a stroll outside of the house or a drop-in for a meal, you can trust that your dog is in caring, responsible hands every step of the way.
