“Kailie did a great job house sitting and watching our two dogs while we were away on vacation. She sent regular updates, the dogs looked happy and she left the house very clean.”
“Absolutely went above and beyond. Bought extra toys and treats for the pets. The dogs were all played out when we arrived. The house was way cleaner than how we left it. Couldn't recommend more”
“Kate was a wonderful dog and house sitter! Our two dogs were better off then when we left as Kate did some training with them. They took lots of walks and seemed very happy and healthy. The house was great as well.”
“Cindy is amazing! 100% would recommend her. Cindy was such a lifesaver for us by watching my dog, Tayto, for a night on short notice while we were visiting Vermont. It was the biggest relief and comfort knowing that Tayto was in such good hands with Cindy. She loved and cared for him so well, and I am so grateful. I wish we lived closer so Cindy could always be our dog sitter! Kind, wonderful, and shared lots of great photos. Thank you, Cindy!”
About: Over 16 years training, walking and exercising high energy dogs. I have extensive experience with working dogs, special needs dogs and have certifications in dog obedience and other disciplines. I am licensed as a public school teacher and fully background checked. Contact me for the best care. Boarding and adventure daycare is my speciality. I have limited housesitting and drop in availability. Dog walking and exercising is my full-time job. I want to provide a concierge service that makes it easiest for you to take your time back and be well. Your wellness is key to your dog being well. My joy for this profession started when I couldn't find a trusted sitter and dog walker for my own animal. I decided to provide that service to others so they wouldn't have the same problem. I give love, attention and exercise to your family member as if they were my own. I am a licensed public school educator who is fully background checked with glowing references that can be provided and contacted.
“Our two pups were happy, well fed, and calm while Julia cared for them over a long weekend. It was such a relief not to worry while we traveled. Instead we received periodic updates and photos of our two safe and slightly spoiled dogs. Thanks, Julia!”
“Laura house sat for us for the first time and she was wonderful! Daisy seemed to be very content with her. Laura responded quickly to my texts and sent great photos of Daisy. We will definitely have her again and highly recommend her!”
About: With experience as a kennel attendant, I have worked with hundreds of different dogs, and am comfortable walking the smallest toy breeds to giant breeds like mastiffs or Great Danes. I have worked with a variety of different personalities and am capable of caring for terminally ill, disabled, or special needs pets! I am currently a college student and mostly spend my time studying if not hanging out with my own pets. I’m available for drop-in visits Monday morning-afternoon, all day Tuesday, Wednesdays and Thursdays after 3, and Fridays until 2 at this time. I am also available Saturdays and Sundays after 4! I care for everyone’s pets as if they’re my own - following their owner’s schedule as closely as possible to ensure their comfort and keep them stress-free! I also like to send owners updates with photos to ease any anxiety about being away from your baby!
“Morgan and Virginia did a great job pet sitting my cat and flock of chickens. Everyone looked happy and I appreciated the daily check ins and communication especially since this was my first time using Morgan’s services after a bad string of pet sitters. Would definitely recommend and use again!”
About: There isn't a time in my life when I have not been around dogs. I was a dog walker throughout college and now I am a dog owner myself. I am an active walker in my neighborhood who has experience with multiple breeds and sized dogs. I currently have a 2-year-old Aussie, and we would love to add your pup to the mix for however long you need! I can do weekends and holidays if I am available. There are some great trails for us to walk on around my neighborhood. Alfie (my pup) also plays with every dog that comes over! My schedule changes often so I will try my best to keep my calendar up to date. My house is puppy-proofed since I have a puppy myself. If you have any requests or concerns please just let me know ahead of time!
“Laura was amazing and so essential to helping us get Colt from our wedding venue to our air bnb! She sent us absolutely amazing photos of Colt and took such good care of him. We can’t thank her enough!!”
About: I have taken care of pets since I was a little kid! I have experience with pets of all types, ages & personalities. Friends & family have relied on me to walk, feed & housesit for their animals. I work full time time job but I have most mornings free. My schedule rotates so I would not be able to have the same availability every week, but please reach out with dates & times! I would love to make something work. I can come to your house and walk your dog. If you are interested in an overnight board at my house the dog would have to be good with my 15lb poodle mix & two cats. It would be ideal that the dog comes with a crate to stay in, as my dog is crated as well when we are out of the house. I do not have a fenced in yard, but I live near a dog park, and in a nice spot to walk dogs.

About: Hello folks, I am an experienced animal caretaker with a background in fostering pets. I have cared for dogs, cats, other domestic pets, and farm animals. My clients, friends and family have entrusted me to watch their animals since I was 12. I believe that direct communication with pet owners will allow me to provide a safe and engaging experience for your animals. I work part-time from 10 am - 2 pm throughout the week. My work days change frequently but I am available outside of these hours for your caretaking needs. I will not be providing services in my home at this time. For pet sitting and walking services, I am available to stay in your home or do daily check ins. My goal is to be an accessible source for your animal while you travel or are at work. I will be available 24/7 via email or text after you book my services. Please provide me with any medical, dietary, or enrichment needs for your animal when you book my services. I always adhere to my clients wishes and will do my best to stick with your pet’s daily routine while in my care. If you have a dog who is friendly, I can provide additional enrichment with my three year old pup Zeus.
About: I’ve taken care of many dogs and other animals throughout my whole life. I enjoy my time with the animals and they can definitely tell! I do work everyday during the week, but I am available after work which would be 5pm sometimes sooner and also anytime on the weekends! I will do whatever I can to make sure your dog feels comfortable while here, whether it’s playing with them, petting or taking them on a walk!
About: I've taken care of animals of all kinds since I was very young. I currently own dogs, cats, a guinea pig, and chickens, and if there are others that need attention, I'm happy to drop in with detailed instructions. I'm a mom and elementary school nurse. I am relatively flexible, mostly on weekends, but happy to work out the details for when you need someone to be with your babies. At this time, my services will be mainly checking in and providing care and attention to pets in your home. I am thorough and conscientious.
