“Amazing sitter! I was gone for the longest I’ve ever left my cats and they were so well cared for. I love coming home to happy cats. Lots of pictures and notes provided!”


About: I currently work as a vet assistant and have over 2 years experience as a pet sitter for dogs and cats. I also have experience watching horses and I am willing to look after pocket pets as well as exotic animals. I am able to administer both topical and oral medication if needed. I will also tend to any housesitting duties such as watering plants, collecting mail, and cleaning. I’m currently working full-time 5-6 days a week, but I do have an hour lunch where I am able to check on pets around noon. My workday begins at 7:30 and ends at 4:30. I prefer to stay at the house that I am dogsitting for as it ensures attentive and thorough care. If I am petsitting and they only require food twice a day, then staying at the house is not necessary. However, if the dog needs to go outside right before bed, it is easier for me to stay.

“Chloe was awesome! She kept in constant contact with me while I was gone and kept Harrison happy. Every visit she would send me pictures and went above and beyond bringing in a package for me that I had expected before my trip. I will definitely use her again!”

“Cameron is a very nice, trusting, and a very professional dog sitter! My husband and I asked Cameron to take our 2 dogs (basset hound and bassador) out to go potty and check on them 2x in the afternoon/evening while we were attending our wedding. He did 2 meet and greets with our boys and they really liked Cameron! Cameron had/has WONDERFUL communication with you, makes sure he knows what should be done and how it should be done, and makes sure your fur babies are content! Needless to say, thanks to Cameron, my husband and I didn't have ANY worries leaving our boys in his hands! If I could give Cameron more than 5 stars, I DEFINITELY would!

Kelly T.
“Kelly is awesome! She loves dogs - our two labs loved her immediately when we had a meet and greet with them! When she found out we love photos she sent fun photos of movie night with the dogs - of course they were snuggled up with her (one dog loves to watch TV especially and the other is a snuggler), Kelly is ver responsible and made us feel comfortable leaving them in her care. She stayed at the house with them and also watered plants in the garden keeping them alive despite the summer heat. She was great, not only with photos but little tidbits that we knew the dogs were loved. To top it all off, I came home and she left the yard in great condition (used our poop bags), left the house clean and had even washed the sheets and towels she had used - to me that show that above and beyond!! I hadn’t asked or expected that! You will love Kelly and so will your pups!!! Thank you Kelly!! Don’t get too busy, the boys will want to have you here whenever we have to travel away from them!!”
