“Working with Gary is a total pleasure. He is kind, responsive and very attentive to detail. It's always such a relief to be able to head out of town without having to worry about my cats - I'd look forward to working with Gary again any time!”


“Olivia was wonderful! She did a great job taking care of our cats while we were away. Communication was great and based on the daily updates we got, our normally shy cats loved her visits. Will be booking with her in the future!”


“Isabela was so friendly and did an amazing job taking care of Boo while we were away. She gave us peace of mind, knowing Boo was able to eat his preferred food daily and that he wasn’t lonely.

“Hailey did a wonderful job visiting our 3 cats while we were on vacation! She communicated with us what was happening with them, sent pictures, and even helped bring in our mail and packages and water our outdoor plants!

About: I've been pet sitting for over 15 years. I routinely watch my friends and family's pets. I have also had pets of my own, including dogs and cats. I have summers off and am very flexible with schedules. During the year I am free most days but can also work around with any schedule. I have experience with crate training. I also have experience using dog diapers on unspayed dogs. I am flexible and adaptive to whatever your wishes may be!

About: I’ve had dogs for my entire life, usually they are even bigger than me (which is great for cuddles). From that, I’ve gained experience all the way from puppy to senior (including medications and insulin) many times. I understand that puppy needs to go every hour… or else. I get that your old friend needs a hype man to do that step to get back inside. Most of all, I know that no matter the age they could use a good belly scratch. As for cats, my parents have a bird so there were never cats in our house (which only made my obsession with them grow); however, my grandmother has always had cats and I’ve done more than my fair share of litter box cleaning, feeding, bringing back inside after an escape, and also insulin. I started doing more independent care around 4 years ago when my old job brought in 2 puppies (one of which I now own). Who needs that 15 minute break when I can just go take them outside for 5 minutes every hour? I have a 50 gal tank with 4 hermit crabs, animals with extremely specific care, I wouldn’t say hard, but the directions I leave behind when I go away must be followed to a tee. I understand that your routine and ways of doing things, no matter how particular, are for your pets best interest every time. You know what’s best and your directions are there for a reason, full stop. Currently working part time, my longer shifts are only around 4 hours which gives me plenty of time for your fur-baby! I would do my best to accommodate that schedule for puppies, the further out you let me know the better. In your home things will be done your way. Leave me directions and rest assured that it will be taken to heart. I think communication is important so a daily update on my end with a photo of your pet only feels right. I’ve always been of the impression that you should leave things cleaner than you found it. I’m not above caring for fish or reptiles that you may have, as long as specific directions are provided. I have VERY much experience with plants too if that’s something you may need.

“Cristina is an absolute ROCK STAR! She went over and above in every way. She did more than she was asked the entire week. Our cat is over 13 yrs old and I have never left her in the care of another human. Cristina was so very patient with her and managed to get her medicine in her every single day. She gave her so many pets, sent pics daily, and communicated questions and updates thoroughly. She also checked in on a second pet she wasn't responsible for. I will absolutely hire her again and if you're looking for the BEST care for your pet she's the best of the best.”


About: Over the course of my life, I’ve owned seven different types of pets, from horses to cats and dogs and others in between! This pet care experience that started in early childhood has led me to appreciate, understand, and know how to handle different furry family members’ personalities. In addition, I have pet at for various families in my community, all of whom had various pets with different needs and temperaments. It would be my honor to care for your pet and give them the treatment they deserve as part of your family. I am currently a college student with a fairly flexible schedule, with availability throughout different parts of the day. I am able to provide pet care throughout most days of the week in general! I am willing to abide by and uphold any of your standard practices for your pet! The last thing I’d like to do is disrupt your pet schedule or routine, so I will do everything in my ability to follow your standards to the letter.

“Have met and used Emily several times with great results. Happy to answer all the good questions she asks and never thought to ask ourselves. Very nice young lady, clearly enjoys spending time with our fur babies and understands their needs. Would highly recommend.”


About: I have always taken care of multiple dogs at a time every since I was a young kid. I am always reliable for the job. I work part-time so I am able to do pet care before and after work and on my days off. My part-time job is Monday through Thursday. I am always playing fetch, walking my dogs, and giving treats. I love knowing that they are happy and healthy by watching their tails wag.

“Kayla was great with watching our pups while we were gone for the weekend. They love her and she did a great job with communicating and sending pics while she was at our house. I would definitely recommend Kayla!”


About: I come from a house where pets are treated like family members. From bunnies to horses, Ive had experience with many. I can also administer medication. I have my own organic dog treats business and I will take care of your babies as I do my own! I am currently working a full-time from home with my pups. I have a big fenced backyard where the dogs can have some outdoor time and we love going for walks. I have two small dogs that are very friendly and a doberman! They are super playful and love other dogs. I work from home full-time and my office is where my pups are. They are spoiled all day long. My dogs are very friendly and love to play but if at any point they need a little break, there is plenty of space for one on one time! I have a fenced backyard where they spend some time and a door that connects to my office so they can choose when to be inside or outside.

About: My name is Darcy and I am a single Mom of 3 older girls , 3 dogs, and a very large boa! We are an animal loving family! I have had pets my whole life and worked full-time for a local Humane Society for over 4 years as well as a traditional boarding kennel for 2 years. I look forward to caring for others pets while they are away, as well as offering the assurance and comfort to a pet owner that their baby is being taken care of in a safe, professional and loving manor outside of a kennel environment. I also have experience with elderly and special needs animals. I have a flexible work schedule so I can work around your schedule! I can come up to three times a day, whatever times you may need. Whatever your wishes are for your pet as far as crating, running in a fenced yard, or having to be individually walked I am open to working to keep your pet on the same routine as if you were home!

About: I’m retired dog breeder and love all animals big and small especially dogs that I have an unique bond with them they are special creatures Since being retired I am very flexible with my schedule. I have availability for mornings, afternoons and or evenings or over night stays at home I can walk , feed and take care of your baby as if they are my fur babies or any other animals that you have

Barbara M.
“I wanted to take a moment to share something special about our mutual friend, Barbara. Having known Barbara for over 25 years, one constant that stands out is her extraordinary connection with animals. Whether it’s her own furry friends or those she cares for while pet sitting, Barbara has an innate ability to make all animals feel at ease around her. It's truly amazing to see how well animals respond to her gentle and friendly approach. 🐶🐱 Barbara has always been the first person I think of when it comes to someone who genuinely understands and loves animals.
