“Danielle did an excellent job from start to finish. Because I found out late that our private sitter had to cancel, getting a replacement on such short notice was kind of stressful. Danielle had openings on the needed dates, and she quickly replied to my request. We set up a meet and greet, she came to our house, and the stress was gone. She immediately engaged with both dogs. They clearly liked her. My husband and I went up north, so cell service can be on and off. Danielle sent regular updates which I would see as soon as we were in range. I greatly appreciate that she left the house as neat as it was when we left; actually even neater. I would highly recommend Danielle. Thank you, Danielle for taking such good care of both dogs.”
“Beth and her daughter were wonderful house sitters!! They followed my detailed instructions carefully and there were no issues. Beth sent pictures of my pets and even videos of my puppies playing in the yard. She responded to all my texts quickly with updates as I wanted them. The house was left in perfect order, just the way I left it, and she even washed the sheets and towels they used. I highly recommend Beth and her daughter!”
“Nikole was INCREDIBLY awesome with my baby girl while we were out of the country! She was super attentive, sent pictures every day, and gave her lots of cuddles! I wouldn’t hesitate to use her services again!”
“Great job! Last time I had a pet sitter one cat hid for a week. So it’s been a long time. Came home to all the pets acting normal and happy. Definitely will be able to travel again, and Jailah will be my first choice or who she would recommend!”
“Samatha was very communicative and on-time. While watching our dog for an extended weekend, she updated me on how things were so I was never left wondering. I was also updated with pictures. I felt at ease having her watch our pup while away.”
“Our second booking with Abigail and we are glad we booked again. She’s trustworthy and really takes care of our dog Howard like family. She sends pics and updates us every night. Will be using her again soon!”
About: I've loved animals my whole life, from raising dogs as a child to caring for my cat. I've also worked on horse farms and volunteered at the Humane Society, giving me experience with pets of all kinds. I enjoy spending time with animals, whether it's playing, walking, or simply giving them attention and care. I would love to provide your furry friends with a safe and loving experience while you're away. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, with my only daily commitment being school pick-up. Outside of that, I'm available to provide consistent and loving care for your pets. I love animals of all kinds and would love the opportunity to make your pets feel safe and comfortable while you are away or getting them their much needed excersize.
“Ava did an amazing job staying at our place and watching our three dogs while we were on vacation. One of our dogs had a variety of medicine that she needed to take, and Ava made sure she took everything, even when our Bella wasn't feeling the best and wanting to cooperate. She was great about sending pictures, and our house was spotless when we came back. I would book her again in a heartbeat!”
“Ivy was awesome and helped me on my wedding day! She took care of my two dogs during the wedding and made the day a lot less stressful. She is very communicative and very kind to the pets.”
About: Have been a long-time dog mom of a pitbull for many years. I have lots of experience with high energy and strong dogs who love walkies. Experience with elderly and ill pets as well. I have flexible hours at my part time job, so I'm able to fit in walks and visits. I'm mostly available mornings, any day of the week. I will respect your home during check-ins, make sure your pet is fed and watered and well exercised as per requests. May also eventually include pet care at my own home, with fenced in yard.
“Mariah is fantastic with our pets! She keeps us updated with frequent photos and messages, giving us peace of mind while we’re away. Mariah goes above and beyond, often taking our dog on longer walks which he loves. Her extensive experience with dogs is a huge plus. We highly recommend her services!”
“Carissa had an immediate connection with dog when she arrived at the house. We were kept informed throughout the day with messages and photos of how Ziva was doing. We would certainly recommend Carissa to care for your pets!”
About: I’m the neighbor that dogs love to visit when allowed to escape their set boundaries. My friends dogs can’t wait to jump out of the vehicle when approaching my home and often resist the offer to “go for a ride”, when it’s time to go back home. I’m a true animal lover, and have had pets my entire life. I have cared for neighbors and friends pets for many years. I come highly recommended by those that know me and 100% trustworthy and dependable. I am a self employed hairstylist and also own a mobile wood sign painting class business. I have the coolest little nine year old daughter that is with me more than 70% of the time that I need to remain flexible for. Helping out with your pets just fits into our life quite well. I am particular on a pet coming into my home. It has to be a good fit for my little Yorkshire and my daughter. I require a meet and greet prior to allowing for this service. My standard prices are shown but they are not necessarily firm. If you happen to live closer to me for example, we can likely work out and even better deal for you. Message me and we can work through the fine details. I have based my career around being a single mother and having my little girl a large portion of the time. Caring for your pet works nicely around my work and my daughter. This is something she and I really enjoy doing together. It is very important that I'm aware of whether your pet is good with children, since at some point in our visit there is a good chance she will be with me. She loves animals and they typically adore her as well. Each pet has different needs and each pet owner has different expectations, so we can discuss this further once we have a chance to talk in person.
About: I’ve taken care my own, as well as other dogs my whole life as well as being a foster through Diamond Dogs, giving me experience with a variety of breeds! I have experience feeding, administering medication and so much more! I’m currently a full time teacher so my schedule is very open in the summers! During the school year I am at my school from 7:00-4:00 but am still very willing and open to working with you for pet care! I have a lot of open time for house visits, house sitting, and walks. Pet care is largely based on what clients prefer. I love going on walks, going to the dog park, and doing whatever I can to help your pup get rid of some energy! If you have an older or a low energy dog I am still down to chill with them and give them some much needed company while you’re away!
“She is so great very laid back and easygoing. Our dogs love her especially our little guy. No worries when she is here. She is always available and dependable we always come home to a happy house and everything is just how we left it.”
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and caring for them comes naturally to me. Whether it’s a high-energy pup who needs daily walks and playtime or a senior dog who prefers a calm, steady routine, I adapt my care to fit each dog’s needs and personality. What sets me apart is my focus on overnight, in-home care, so your dog can stay in their safe, familiar space while you're away. I provide consistent routines, lots of love, and a calm presence to reduce stress and separation anxiety. I also offer regular updates, so you can relax knowing your dog is in good hands. Walks, cuddles, feeding, medication—I handle it all with the same love and attention I give my own pets. I work locally and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets the attention and care they deserve throughout the day. Whether it’s early morning feedings, midday walks, or evening playtime, I can easily work pet care into my routine. Because I stay nearby, I’m able to check in frequently, keep routines consistent, and be available for any unexpected needs. This flexibility also makes overnight stays smooth and stress-free—your pets won’t be left alone for long stretches, and they’ll enjoy a steady, comforting presence throughout the day and night. When I care for pets in your home, my goal is to make them feel safe, relaxed, and loved—just like you never left. I follow your pet’s usual routine closely, including feeding times, walks, play, medications, and bedtime habits, to keep things as normal and comforting as possible. I respect your home as if it were my own—clean, secure, and peaceful. I keep litter boxes or yards tidy, wash food bowls, and ensure your pet has fresh water and a cozy place to rest. I also provide updates and photos, so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. Whether it’s cuddles on the couch, quiet companionship, or active playtime, I adapt to your pet’s personality and needs, giving them attentive care and calm companionship in their favorite place: home.
About: Why board when you can have personalized Pet Sitting in your home. I go beyond feeding and walking your pet. I create a nurturing and stress-free environment for your beloved pet. You can unwind and be confident that your furry friend is in capable hands I am currently employed full-time from 8 AM to 5 PM, with weekends off. I am available to take your pet out for walks before and after my work hours, as well as during holidays. I enjoy taking pets on car rides and to parks, and if permitted, I would happily take your pet along with me wherever I go. I will adhere to the instructions provided. Additionally, I require contact numbers for any emergencies, including your veterinarian's details and how to reach you, the pet owner.

She is very aware of what a high flight risk dog is and is experienced in taking all safety precautions necessary to ensure the dogs are always under her control while maintaining a calm environment for them. I don't trust very many people with my dogs but I would absolutely trust Brandy! Brandy has always shown my dogs the love and care as she would her very own.
