“This is the second time Lori watched my cats. She did a fantastic job, sent lots of pictures, and communicates well with updates. Will definitely contact her in the future!”


“I cannot say enough great things about Emily! This was our first time booking with her and everything was seamless. She came for a meet and greet with our crew about a month ahead, and we communicated a few days before her sitting. Pictures and notes were posted daily. Even when I occasionally didn’t have cell service, no worries. Emily treated our pets like family, which allowed us to relax 😎”


“Marissa was very attentive and communicative before and during our drop in. She has great experience and took great care of our 3 dogs. Her updates and photos were detailed and made us smile. We knew they were in great hands with Marissa!”


“Melina was so great with my dogs! I have a huge 120 pound dog who can be a little naughty and a little bulldog mix and she was incredible with them both! I came home from my trip and they were content and not stressed out at all. Highly recommend Melina and I will definitely be using her again :)”


“Lee was wonderful! She came 2x a day to feed and give my senior cat medicine. Lee sent us regular updates and pictures daily so that we knew how he was doing. Thank you so much for everything!”

“Dana did a fantastic job taking care of my cats while I was away. I will definitely be using her again. She is extremely reliable and attentive and exactly what I was looking for in a cat sitter.”


“Rosemary was wonderful. Our cat is 15-years old. She is indoors only and likes her quiet time. She does not usually take to strangers at all. But she absolutely loved Rosemary and warmed up her to her immediately. Rosemary is really kind and gentle and I think our cat felt this. Rosemary even vacuumed our house before we came home from our vacation so we would not have to deal with the cat hair. Rosemary is a real gem and we highly recommend her! 👍”


“Alex came over for a drop in visit. Our dog has some fear/anxiety issues so we were a bit nervous. He was so great with Dierks and Dierks even ended up falling asleep right next to him. Thankful to have found Alex on here and look forward to future visits!”


“Dawn helped me with an emergency stop in-visit for a sick puppy. She is truly an advocate for my puppy and she does so much to give me peace of mind. I am so lucky to have found her”


About: I have always been an animal lover and will be sure to give the love your pet needs while you’re not home. With experience with many different animals ranging from dogs, cats, and reptiles as well as experience with senior pets with specific needs, I understand the importance of attention to detail. I currently have an open schedule with few obligations for the time being. That gives plenty of time to play with your pets and make sure they have everything they need to be happy and comfortable while you’re away. When it comes to trust and safety, I have a lot of experience in reading body language from animals and am confident that they wouldn’t be put in a situation where they are stressed or scared. In addition to this, I like to have a general idea of the schedule the owner(s) keep the pet(s) on to make sure not to stray from what’s familiar to them. I am also happy to give updates through the day, and am able to follow a set of instructions if there are special requirements.

About: I have loved dogs my entire life, and I have been caring for others' pets for about five years now. I love caring for dogs in all ways. I have done a few pet-sitting gigs for friends and clients alike, and I enjoy getting to know dogs of every age, size, and breed! I am a teacher, so I am off for the summer. I am available during the week most weeks to care for your dogs. I am an early riser and can be a night owl if needed later in the evenings. I am not available on weekends. I have always had a German Shepherd in my family, so I am very used to working with large breeds. I also have friends and family with small, medium, and large sized dogs whom I'm very good with and have watched/taken care of before. I can crate dogs if needed. I have experience with training and look forward to learning the commands you use to communicate with your dog. I am a respectful person who will make sure your dog is fully taken care of to the best of my ability.

“Kate was very professional and caring for our pets and her previous background allowed care to be supplied for a diabetic pet requiring daily shots. My wife and I are very grateful and can highly recommend Kate as her services were superb.”


About: I’ve helped take care of pets since I got my own chocolate lab in 2020. I’m obsessed and want to help create a fun environment for your pets too! I work from home so I am very flexible to help with you needs 7-days a week! Whenever you need my services I’ll be happy to help you in any way possible! I help create safe, comfortable environments for pets of all sizes so they can play and relax as much as they want and please. I also love walking as much as possible to lose the dad weight

About: I've been around dogs my entire life - from high-maintenance Yorkies to big-hearted Rottweilers, so you could say I don't get thrown off too easily. Puppies, seniors, rescues, anxious or reactive pups - I've probably seen it, or something close to it. What makes me different is how seriously I take your pet's comfort and emotional well-being. I pay attention to their behavior, adjust my energy to meet theirs, and treat them the way I'd want someone to treat my own - with consistency, patience, and a little extra love. Whether it's following a strict routine or adapting to a new one, I bring calm, experience, and a real love for animals. Pet care is a natural part of my life. Right now I'm in between roles so have a ton of bandwidth and flexibility. I have two dogs of my own and start every day with a walk and time outside. I'll always make time for your pet the same way I do for mine - no matter what is going on. Whether it's early mornings, midday check-ins, or evening walks, this is something I want to be doing and will always prioritize. I treat your space and your pet with the same respect I'd expect if roles were reversed. I follow care instructions to a T - feeding, meds, routines, energy levels, everything - and I'm always checking in to make sure your dog feels safe and secure. We don't cut corners here. If I'm walking them, there's no phones and I'm present. If I'm staying in your home, I'll leave it as clean (or cleaner) than I found it. And if you need someone to just stop in and show your pup some love while you're away, I'm your person.

“Reina watched our dog and cat for 8 days. She showed up on time and never missed a check in with our animals. They were very happy with Reina and comfortable around her. We would definitely book Reina again!”


“Katie was wonderful!!!! I had to call her at the last minute when our usual dog walker was injured. Katie was quick to respond and readily available to help us in a pinch. Our dogs loved her (and we did too). We got tons of pics and updates while we were away and knew our doggies were being handled with great love and care. Thank you so much, Katie!”
