“If there was a way to give Liz six stars on here, then I would want to give her seven stars. She is spectacular taking care of our pups. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter”

“Mallory was excellent sitting for us over a long weekend! She was very communicative over the whole period and gave our pup so much love. We will definitely be looking to hire Mallory anytime we need a walker or sitter. Bonus, she left our home spotless so our return home was super easy!”

“Faith was a life saver! She took great care of our dog Chloe while we were on vacation. When our flights got interrupted and we had to come home a day late she was able to come back and take care of Chloe again that night and the next morning! Whew! Will definitely use her again!”

About: As a dog mom of three very different pups—a goofy cuddle bug, a squirrel-chasing chatterbox, and a calm, loyal companion—I truly understand that every dog has their own personality and needs. What sets me apart is my ability to adapt my care to each dog’s unique energy level, quirks, and routine. I have experience with senior dogs, stubborn breeds, and high-energy pups, and I’m especially great with food-motivated dogs (because let’s be honest—treats are love!). Whether your pup needs a playmate, a cuddle buddy, or a calm presence, I’m here to make them feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. I also have experience with medication administration, basic training reinforcement, and helping dogs feel comfortable in new environments. Your pet won’t just be watched—they’ll be cared for like family. Pet care is a natural fit in my life because I’m already surrounded by dogs and love spending time with them! I work full time, but I’m looking to do pet care part time—and I have flexibility in my current schedule that allows me to make arrangements as needed. Whether it’s early morning walks, evening drop-ins, or weekend stays, I’m happy to work with pet parents to find a routine that works for everyone. Caring for animals brings me joy, and I’m excited to welcome more furry friends into my weekly routine! I provide pet care exclusively in my clients' homes to ensure each pet stays comfortable in their own environment and to avoid any stress from introducing them to my three resident dogs. I’m respectful of routines and will follow all care instructions closely—whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, medication, or cuddle time. I make it a priority to keep your pet safe, happy, and loved while you're away, and I always provide updates so you can feel confident they’re in good hands.
“Brittany was well loved by our pups and Brittany loved our pups while we were gone. We were especially grateful when our dogs injury re-emerged while we were gone she picked up medicine and administered it until we returned home.”


“Ashely was incredible!!! She gave great updates and was very easy to communicate with. My dog loved her! She also took fantastic care of my apartment while I was gone. I will for sure be booking with Ashley again! Thanks for everything Ashley!!!”


About: I’ve grown up around animals and currently have two dogs and two cats of my own. I’ve also helped family friends by caring for their pets while they’re away, including feeding, walks, playtime, and checkins. I love getting to know each pet’s personality and making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I currently work part time , which gives me flexibility for dog walks, drop in visits, and pet care throughout the week. I’m committed to being dependable, and I’ll always do my best to accommodate your pet’s routine. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break, a walk, playtime, or some extra attention while you’re away, I’m happy to help. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. As the owner of two dogs and two cats, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets. I follow all care instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications, and exercise needs. During visits, I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, care, and supervision, and I’ll provide updates and photos so you can feel confident while you’re away.
“Second booking with Lauren was just as great as the first. She has a calming presence for my high energy pup. Lauren was responsive and sent great pics/updates. And she left my place cleaner than I left it! Wonderful experience.”


About: I have been helping care for my beagle, Chance, for 9 years. I have taken care of dogs while babysitting. I know how to prepare food, control a tugger of a dog on walks, and give pets the love they deserve. My own beagle is somewhat disabled with full use in only 3 legs. My experience is in dogs, but I also love kitties. I am available to for work Wednesdays, Fridays, and weekends all day. Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday I have an internship until 3pm. Thursdays are available from 4pm-midnight. Monday and Tuesday are available from 4pm-6pm. All care will be done within clients house, with the exceptions of walks or dog parks. I am also available to drive your fur babies if necessary. I will always check the water dish and feed on time.

About: I have been taking care of all kinds of pets ever since I was a young girl. Whether that consisted of a quick walk around the neighborhood, or an overnight stay while an owners away, I have a lot of past experience, taking care of each animal in their needs. I see each pet as an individual, as their needs may differ from others. My number one priority is making sure that all pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable. Pets come first always! I will make it a priority to make sure that I am available to be with any pet at any time. I can happily create a safe environment for different pet's needs. I believe spending 1 on 1 time is very important when making a pet feel comfortable, and most importantly loved.
“Madie was awesome! Accommodated a last minute request and provided great communication the entire time I was away. Would definitely use her services again.”

“Corrinn was the best dogsitter! We needed someone for 9 days while traveling to California without kids and had our sitter fall through. She made it easy to pivot and was highly communicative throughout the entire process. Our pup was so happy to have her company and we loved the check ins knowing that our dog was in good hands. Would highly recommend!!”

“Awia was absolutely amazing! From our initial meet-and-greet, she was kind, attentive, and genuinely interested in learning about Rumi and his routine. She even followed up afterward with a thoughtful message letting me know she was looking forward to caring for him and would take great care of him—which she absolutely did. While I was away, Awia provided regular updates, including texts and photos, which gave me tremendous peace of mind. She was communicative, reliable, and respectful of my home, making her an exceptional sitter and house guest. It was clear that Rumi was in great hands the entire time. I highly recommend Awia and would not hesitate to book with her again!”


“We consider ourselves very lucky to have found Ashley on such short notice ahead of the holidays. Our dates were in flux and we couldn't book as far in advance as we would have liked. I was VERY anxious booking someone new for a full week (as our normal sitter was not available) especially given we have a senior cat that requires regular meds, but Ashley did everything in her power to make this paranoid cat mom feel at ease! She stopped by for a meet and greet ahead of the booking. She sent loads of pictures and updates, including regular updates on how my senior boy was doing taking his meds. Both cats seemed very comfortable with her as evidenced by the snuggles my senior cat gave and the very limited number of hisses from our spicy girl. When we got home, the house was in impeccable shape and Ashley even brought in our mail/packages, which I greatly appreciated! We will definitely be rebooking with Ashley next time we need someone to watch the buddies!”

“Emberly was spectacular. She helped us out with very short notice, taking care of three dogs that can get pretty rowdy. She handled our sick puppy with the care, love, and affection Dottie needed, even though Emberly didn’t know until the night before how much specialized care Dottie would need. My wife and I greatly appreciate Emberly’s help, and we would definitely use her again.”

“Shelby did a great job with our pup! She stayed with him and cuddled him while we were out all day and safely secured him in his kennel when she left for the day. He was a happy and safe dog thanks to her!”
