About: I have watched multiple breeds of dogs with different needs, ranging from feeding, bathroom breaks, activity needed, and scheduling. I love to be active so if your dog loves physical activity, you are in good hands! I give lots of attention and spend lots of time with the pets I’m watching. I am currently enrolled in online school but rest assured, I am great with time management and will give your pup the best time! I can hang at your house while I work on my schoolwork to keep your furry friend company! I also work at a dog fitness center so I may have to work while with your pet. I have a 7 year old German Shepherd at home, so I am used to the big dogs who need the physical activity. She gets all the love all the time and loves spending time with everyone in my family. In your home, I will respect your house and rules, as well as follow the instructions regarding your dog’s care! He/she will be in good hands and never have a dull day 🙂

“Alex was an awesome pet sitter. Very reliable, responsive, sent photos & videos/updates daily. The dogs loved playing with him. We greatly appreciated him taking good care of our fur kids.”


“Shannon was a dream! We are so happy we were able to find her before our trip. She went above and beyond making sure our cats were happy and taken care of. She also made sure to send us many updates which really put our minds at ease. Most importantly our cats loved her and felt safe and comfortable with her! We will definitely book with her again when we go out of town!”


“Cyndi is a godsend! She always arrives on time and my fluffy guy, Blue just loves her! You can be assured that your 4-legged family members will be well cared for by Cyndi.”


About: I’ve owned pets my whole life. Cats, dogs, guinea pigs, rabbits, bearded dragons, axolotls… I have had older cats and dogs that require medications and special care. I worked at a pet store for about 2 years. I am always willing to learn about your pet! I am a full time college student, I’m on campus for about 8 hours including commute time. A typical day allows me time to take care of my animals before I leave for class and when I get home. I have a fenced in yard for my dog. My cat and dog are free roam in the house. I have not had an outdoor cat and no declawing. The other animals in my household are in a spacious cage and well taken care of.

“I don’t think we can thank Maura enough for the help and care she provided for our boys!! She was able to come on a short notice, and our boys loved her from the first visit! She sent us lots of pictures and updates on each drop in which made us feel happy and confident in the care and love the dogs received!! Thank you again Maura!”


About: have taken care of or owned pets as long as I can remember. Currently, we own 1 spayed cat that is 3 years old and a 1 year old collie/standard poodle mix that LOVES to make friends and play! I am a nurse, and am able to understand and provide pets’ medication as needed and as instructed by parents. I am able to work remote most days M-F so that means lots of time to provide attention and spoiling for your pet. Also available most weekends unless we have family plans. Happy to provide a loving a safe environment for your pet! I work full-time Mon through Fri, but work remote most days and available on weekends unless we have family plans. My schedule is typically fairly flexible. I have a fenced in yard that provides a safe and fun area for dogs to play. We have a 1 year old male (neutered) dog and a 3 year old spayed cat. We allow our pets to have run of the house and do not crate or restrict them to specific areas of the house. However, if you crate your pet and would prefer crating, am happy to do whatever is best for your pet.

About: I have taken care I’d both Dogs and Cats and I love both of them. I have many years of experience taking care of them. I currently work from 5 am to 10 am and then from 12:30pm till 6pm on the weekdays full time but I’m able to drop by in morning and evening to check in on them and also on the weekends. Also I’m on summer break soon and will have a more availability. I currently do not have pets in the house but when I did, they were taking care of greatlyand I don’t want to be responsible for damaging the clients home.
