“Alicia did a great job taking care of my four cats. She made two visits to my home to feed, water and clean litter boxes. She kept me informed about her visits. One of the cats needed a medication and she followed through with that. She also cleaned up after feeding time, as I requested. Alicia is pleasant and responsible. I hope to use her services again.”


“Samantha did a great job with my kitties. Even the shy girl came out and let her pet her. She spent time with our cats which is very important to us. She was great at communicating with me. I will hire Sam again.”


“Alicia continues to be amazing. Very communicative and updates us on our fur babies while we’re away. Thank you, thank you for always taking such good care of them.”


“Camryn did an excellent job taking care of our cats for a week. She took time to give them much needed attention (yes, these are needy cats) while we were away. I would be happy for her to take care of them in the future.”


“Kelci was wonderful with my two kitties! They felt comfortable and loved her right away. She did an excellent job of keeping me updated while I was away and was even kind enough to bring in my packages for me. Highly recommend Kelci and I will be using her again in the future!”


“Ashley was great with my fur baby, Samson. She was on time for each drop in visit and took great care of him exactly as instructed. I would reccommend Ashley to care for your fur babies. Samson gives her 5 stars. :)”


“So grateful for Jennifer. I was looking for someone who would care for my three boy cats (including a very socially anxious one) with kindness, attention to detail, and patience, and she delivered. She even brought them homemade catnip toys, which they are loving. I absolutely would (and plan to) hire her again to look after my boys.”


“Elizabeth took excellent care of our elderly cat. She was delightfully responsive, responsible and flexible in scheduling, sent photos during her visits and even spent time with him on our porch where he loves to hang out. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience for us and our cat. Highly recommend!”


About: I bring a blend of expertise, compassion, and professionalism to the world of pet care. I am a lifelong dog enthusiast. My dedication to dog well-being extends beyond the home and into the community. My own beloved dog is a certified therapy dog — qualified to bring comfort and joy to individuals in hospitals, nursing homes, and rehabilitation facilities. I am committed to quality training, socialization, and the highest standards of pet care. I approach pet sitting with the same thoughtful attention and integrity that I apply to therapy dog work. I understand that each pet is a cherished member of the family. My goal is to create an environment where all pets feel safe, nurtured, and loved during their owner's absence. I have respect for animals. I have a calm and reassuring demeanor. I give meticulous attention to individual needs. I believe that pet care is an art and a responsibility. I hope to promote peace of mind for pet owners — and joy, comfort, and companionship for the animals entrusted to my care. Pet care is a fulfilling extension of my daily life and personal passions. While I maintain a full-time professional career during weekday business hours, I am fully available for pet care services during all weeknights and weekends. I have one masters degree, three bachelor degrees, and maintain two professional licenses. I integrate pet sitting, walking, and animal companionship into my evening and weekend routines. All pets receive focused attention, consistency, and genuine care. My schedule allows me to prioritize the needs of the pets in my care. Whether providing evening walks, overnight stays, weekend visits, or extended companionship, I approach each opportunity with the same dedication and attentiveness that I give to my own therapy-certified dog. My flexibility during non-working hours enables me to deliver exceptional service and peace of mind to pet owners seeking reliable, high-quality care outside of traditional business hours. When entrusted with the care of pets in my clients' homes, I approach the responsibility with the utmost professionalism, attentiveness, and respect. I believe that maintaining a pet’s familiar environment nurtures a sense of security and emotional well-being, which is why I prioritize preserving each pet's routine as closely as possible — from feeding schedules and walks to playtime and quiet companionship. I am available to stay overnight in clients’ homes during weeknights and weekends (if needed), offering continuity of care and providing a reassuring presence for pets who thrive on stability and human connection. During my stay, your pet becomes my primary focus. I ensure that all of their needs — physical, emotional, and social — are met with patience, affection, and individualized attention. Whether staying for a single night or extended periods, I treat each home and pet with the same level of care and integrity that I expect for my own therapy-certified dog. My commitment is to offer peace of mind to owners and a comforting, safe experience for their cherished companions.

“Brady and Jennifer were amazing. They were available at the last minute and I had no problem reaching out to them. They took care of my kitty exactly as per the instructions. They were punctual and always kept an open line of communication during the entire stay. Definitely recommended.”


“Amanda was excellent! Our cat was very well taken care of and we will hire her again! We also really appreciated that she took time with him, brushed him (more than we do!) and cared for him. She was also a great communicator and came over beforehand to learn our system and where we kept things. Thank you again. Also, Amanda when you see this you left your coffee mug at our house. We will leave it on our front porch for you to get whenever you can.”


About: Hi there! My name is Alyse. Im currently a stay at home mom . I have a fun, rambunctious Pomeranian named Aria! I love to be around animals and take good care of them. I’ve been around animals my whole life. I’ve had cats, dogs, birds, hamsters, and so on. I’ve also taken care of my friends pets as well, whenever they go on trips or go on vacation I’d be the first person they come running too. I hope to be of service and help out as much as I can. I would say I do my best at giving the animals much love and affection as possible and caring for their needs. As well as making my customers happy!! As for scheduling, I am flexible and can work with you. I know I can offer great services to you and your furry friend. I hope you will consider me. You can contact me anytime of the day! I currently work from home. I’m able to walk dogs, do drop in visits as well as spend some time with your pet while you’re away! I love walking at parks and going on hiking trails with the dogs. Making sure the dogs are enjoying themselves and staying healthy and active!

“Dane & Kayla came in clutch when our original sitter canceled on us the day before we departed for our week-long trip; they responded within an hour of my message and confirmed they could help us within another hour. Our cat is older and diabetic, so it's not that easy to find someone close by who has prior experience with insulin administration and is willing to care for a senior pet, especially with a day of notice. We had full confidence in Dane & Kayla, enjoyed our trip knowing our cat was well-cared for, and came home to a happy cat and a tidy house just as we left it. We very much appreciate Dane & Kayla!”


“Sam was great helping with a drop in visit for Kai ☺️ I received a lot of pictures and could see how happy Kai was while he was there. I will definitely be reaching out to Sam if I need a dog sitter again in the future ☺️”


“Jill was awesome pet sitting our dogs. She came to our house 3x a day and updated us. She's really excellent with communicating frequently! She sent pictures and snap chats to me. She is very trustworthy and dependable! I felt so much better knowing the dogs were in good hands. :) I will use her as our pet sitter from now on!”


About: Single mom with a flexible schedule and a drive to provide with over 25 years of experience caring for cats, dogs, birds, rabbits, fish and more! I currently work part-time until 1pm or 3pm in the afternoon. I do have a small child that will be with me. I am not available after 8pm. When I visit your home for drop-ins, I treat your pet like one of my own! I’ll make sure they’re fed, have fresh water, get potty breaks, and of course—plenty of love and attention. I’ll follow your care instructions closely and always respect your space. Whether it's playtime, snuggles, or just keeping your pet company, I make sure they feel safe and happy while you're away. During walks, I focus on safety, fun, and exercise. I stick to your preferred route or choose safe paths nearby, and I tailor the pace and length to your dog’s energy level and needs. I always double-check harnesses and leashes, avoid unsafe areas, and make sure your pup gets time to sniff and explore!

Kevin W.
“Hello! I wanted to personally introduce you to Kevin, a best friend of over 10 years. He always said if a friendship lasts for 10 years, it'll last a lifetime. And what do you know, to a dog that's just 1.5 years! :D Like me, Kevin can't wait to meet and befriend animals. His kind nature and heart will surely keep your pet(s) at ease while you and they can't be together. Kevin lives in a nice and friendly community, great for walking pets, should you choose Boarding or Doggy Day Ca re. His home is very comfortable and accommodating for any fluffy individual. With Kevin, your fur-baby will have a great and safe time!”

Allyson W.
“Allyson is a true gem! She cared for my three cats—Luna (2), Mira (11), and Cadi (12)—while I was out of town, and I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter. Not only did she handle everything with love and attention, but she also kept up with Mira’s medication schedule perfectly, which gave me so much peace of mind. Allyson went above and beyond by brushing Cadi daily (her favorite thing!), playing with Luna to help her burn off some kitten energy, and even sending me daily updates and adorable photos. She also took the time to tidy up their litter areas and refresh their water fountains regularly—something I really appreciated. You can tell Allyson genuinely loves animals and treats them like her own. She’s reliable, thoughtful, and completely trustworthy. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, responsible pet caregiver!”
