“She was an amazing sitter! She watched my 4-month old kitten Deon and made sure he was comfortable and cared for during his stay. She sent several updates throughout the day including photos and videos of him. When his time was up, she packed all his stuff up before I arrived to pick him up and had him ready for send off! I enjoyed sitting with her a bunch and will make sure to check with her first before other sitters!”


“Riley was amazing.. my cat was super shy & Riley was so patient with trying to get her to come out of hiding. She was professional, quick to respond, & overall a pleasure to work with.. thank you Riley!!”


“Thank you so much for watching Pumpkin! The updates and photos were so comforting and you took such good care of her! We truly appreciate it.”


“I can’t thank Sally enough for all that she has done for my fur babies! She is so reliable, caring, communicative, and truly one of the people I trust most in the world with my fur babies! It feels like a blessing that we found Sally ❤️”



“Hannah went above and beyond caring for my cat while I was away for a few day. Her visits were always on time and I got detailed updates after each visit. She spent the entire half hour every visit and managed to win over my very shy cat. I am definitely going to try to book with Hannah any time I travel in the future.”


“Taylor was absolutely a delight. Our dogs were sad to see us come home instead of her. 10/10 for everything. Timeliness, friendliness, professionalism.”


“Kari took such good care of our boy for a few weeks while we were house hunting! She took pictures often and sent us constant updates! We are grateful!”

About: i've always had dogs in the house. I've always had at least 3 dogs in my house at a time, growing up my best memories were going on hikes with all my dogs. I've always been running and playing with dogs. I'm currently working at Liberty on the Lake. I have my availability set to 4pm to close there though i do work morning and/or night shift on weekends. in my free time i walk my dogs and take my one energetic dog on a run. I am able to take any specifically energetic dogs on runs! I just love animals and it would be a cool experience to hang out with them. I walk in the house and see if a dog comes up to me, if not i call the name of the dog. I take the dog out to go potty and for a walk. If needed i'll feed the dog.

“I will definitely book Emily again, she spent time with the babies even though they're just cats so you know how cats are, they're not a whole lot of fun but they're cute. Both of my babies loved her very much, I have a newer one who's scared of everyone but even he came up for her. She's very trustworthy and super nice. She also works with you on time of things, I was going to want to be home late yesterday so I asked her to come later in the day to feed them instead of going by the time on Rover and she was accommodating with that.”


“Kailynn was fantastic! Professional and so loving and sweet to my cats! Highly recommend!”


“Rebecca did a wonderful job of taking care of our cats. She sent updates and pictures while in our home. So nice to have someone you can trust and not worry about our furbabies. We also met her prior for peace of mind and to meet the animals. Will definitely have her back.”


“Amazing and thoughtful service as always! We always feel at ease leaving town knowing Lindsey and Aaron are taking care of our babies. Thank you both!”


About: Hi, I’m Ashley! I’ve spent my whole life around animals and currently have three cats and a dog of my own who are spoiled with love and attention. I recently got out of the military, where structure and responsibility were key—skills I now bring into the care I provide for every pet I meet. I’m experienced with pets of all ages, temperaments, and needs, and I know how important it is to feel confident that your fur baby is safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding routines, or just providing calm companionship, I treat every animal like they’re my own. I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely love what I do. As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets the time, attention, and consistency they need. Being home throughout the day means I’m available for frequent check-ins, walks, feedings, or just quality time to keep your pet feeling safe and loved. My daily routine already revolves around care and structure, so adding in pet care is a seamless fit. Whether your pet needs a calm, cozy environment or someone active and engaged, I’m able to adjust to their pace and make them feel right at home. In my home, I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where animals can feel safe and relaxed. I follow each pet’s routine closely—whether that means feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, or quiet cuddle time. I make sure pets have their own comfortable space and always introduce them slowly to new surroundings to reduce stress. I also have a fenced yard for safe outdoor time and three friendly, well-behaved pets of my own who are used to sharing their space.

“Connie was amazing with my cat! Took very good care of her while I was away and even helped with medication. Highly recommended and will be my first call moving forward. Thank you Connie!”


About: Hello I’m Lia! With nine years of dedicated pet care experience, I offer comprehensive and compassionate service for your beloved companions. My expertise includes the oral administration of medication, ensuring your pet's health needs are met with precision. I'm also proficient in baths and brushing, keeping them comfortable and well-groomed. What truly sets me apart is my ability to handle emergencies such as seizures and choking, providing crucial peace of mind. During my college years, I gained three years of valuable boarding experience, comfortably hosting pets in my home. As a highly active individual, I love taking dogs out for extended playtime and walks, ensuring they get plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. I have no limitations on breed or size, as I believe all dogs are, at heart, still sweet puppies deserving of love and attentive care. I am currently on Summer break so I have plenty of time to spend with your fur-baby! I am available for house sitting, drop-ins, and daily dog walking. On Sundays I won’t be available until the afternoon. When caring for pets in your home I will respect their routines and carefully follow the provided instructions. I value integrity and will always have respect for your home.


“Alexa was wonderful & I will DEFINITELY use her again! She was great with communication and I was confident that my babies were in caring hands! HIGHLY recommend!”


About: We have experience taking care of our own dogs as well as others in the past 10 years ! We’ve dog sat for family and friends and have experience with all ages of dogs. We also have some experience training. We both work from home so someone is always home to care for your pet ! We prefer you to have a crate for your pet for nighttime use because we crate our own at night. We have a fenced in yard with plenty room for play and one young golden retriever who is extremely friendly and has yet to meet a dog he does not get along with.

About: I am a 35 year old Mother of 3 beautiful children, my Husband & I rescue and rehabilitate injured animals. I personally have owned and/or fostered dogs, cats & an array of random critters my entire life! I absolutely love all animals from Reptiles & Rodents to Cats & Dogs. I currently own 3 indoor cats, 1 outdoor cat, 1 Holland Lop Bunny & 1 California Rex Bunny, I also rehabilitated a baby squirrel who still returns Home for dinner sometimes. I have volunteered at many animal shelters and rescues. I’m an experienced Surgical Recovery Technician for a non-profit rescue. I have plenty of experience managing groups of up to 20 dogs or more by myself. I have worked with many different temperaments and ages, I’m always up for a challenge and am prepared to work with animals of all breeds, ages and temperaments with no question that I will form a bond with them very quickly. Also, I might be able to work hours that I have not listed if it is discussed in advance! I currently work on my own schedule, I am an Independent Contractor for multiple companies. Ultimately I am free to walk your pup or pet-sit anytime because I make my own hours! I will care for every animal as if they are my own. An owner leaving can be a very confusing time for an animal and it is important that they are shown a lot of affection and constantly reminded that they are loved! I intend to make every animal’s walk/visit a happy one and care for them as I hope someone would my own. Any animal in my care should be prepared for some good exercise as well, unless otherwise specified to take it easy due to old age and whatnot. I look forward to meeting you and your pets soon, God Bless!

“Jennifer was awesome at taking care of our three kitties! She sent daily updates with pictures and videos and made sure all kitties got quality time with her. Would definitely recommend Jennifer!”
