“HIGHLY recommend Alex. My kitties were so well taken care of that they didn’t seem to notice I was gone when I got back. Alex could communicated with me the whole time and made me feel at ease.”
5. morgan a.
“Morgan was so easy to work with! She sent us updates at every drop in visit and was quick to respond. We have a box turtle with medications and she handled him wonderfully. Our cat also doesn't like other people and she was able to interact and even pet her! Would definitely recommend!”
6. Katy G.
“Katy is a reliable-pet-sitter-extraordinaire! She exceeds expectations and ensures your four legged friend is well taken care of while you are away. Her communication puts any worries at ease and she cares for animals as if they were her own. My cat is quite fond of Katy and he is always prompt to welcome her at the door when she comes by. 🐱 I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable pet sitter!”

8. Avery S.
About: I’ve been all of my family and friends dog sitters for about 5 years now. I love animals and just being around them in general. I just recently moved to college and had to leave my dogs at home and just miss being around animals. I’m currently work full time, however I still have availability to do dog sitting jobs. I’m available almost every weekend and can check on them during the day as well. I always made sure my dogs were on the same eating schedule and made sure they got some sort of exercise at least once a day.
9. Bania P.
About: I had my first dog when I was 5 and up until I was a Junior in highschool when we lost our beloved Burnie. He was my best friend, I would always tell people I was his go-to human we had our daily walks. Since then I have been the family pet sitter which have included plenty of dogs. I am currently a full-time college student but I am free everyday after 4pm. On the weekends I am a little more flexible I just need to know ahead a few days prior if you need services earlier than 4! I do live inside of an apartment but I have space in the back where I can give walks and potty breaks. There are currently no pets inside of my home but your pet is allowed on top of my sofa!
10. Makenzie W.
“Makenzie is very caring and conscientious. She worked for me at Woodland Park Pet Resort in high school and college. She cared for our guests as if they were her own. In addition, she is very observant. I have labradors and I would absolutely trust her with my pups.”
11. Leah P.
About: Always available. Anytime. Anywhere. I am a caring, loving and considerate individual who is a lover of all animals, especially pets. I am the owner of 2 dogs who are indeed my furbabies. I would in turn treat your babies as my own. I looking forward to getting to know your pets as well as exploring the world with them. Allow me to be your dog sitter and you surely won't regret it :) Thank you, Leah
12. Nessa R.
“Grateful for Nessa. Our 3 fur babes were happy and well fed when we got back from our trip. We were able to book Nessa on short notice and she was fantastic. This was the second time we book her because we had a great first experience. We have 3 cats and they all eat different food and its a mix of wet and dry kibble, Nessa knocked it out of the park. Thank you again.”
13. Sylvia G.
“Sylvia has taken care of my pets when I have gone out of town. She has done this for 8 years and has done an excellent job. She absolutely loves animals of all kind and has good judgement when the unexpected happens. I totally trust her with my dogs and they absolutely love her. I don't think I could have a better dog person in my life.”
14. Lianne S.
“Lianne was very easy to communicate with and she took great care of my dog, Clem! She was flexible on timing and adjusted as I changed things. I am sure my dog loved having her drop in to our house to play with her and let her out and she shared photos and useful info after her visits.”
15. Emily L.
“Emily is a wonderful pet sitter! She is very kind and responsible when watching my pup and she always keeps in touch during the stay as well. I would definitely recommend her!”
16. Madison D.
About: I have had dogs, cats, and other livestock all my life. Currently we only have dogs and cats; five and two respectively. The dogs are all 60+ lbs and the cats are strictly inside cats. All of our dogs are rescues from over the years and at various stages of life and they all have their own quirks. One is deaf, one has IBD, and another has allergies so I am well versed in complicated feeding and the nuances that accompany dog care. I am able to pick up/drop off for boarding services. I have several dog kennels that I always use for transportation of dogs. I am currently going to school but am home all day Friday through Monday. My schedule pretty much revolves around my animals. I have several cameras set up in the garage and back yard to check on the dogs if I run an errand. I was in the military so I understand being particular when you have to leave your pets for whatever reason. I am here for whatever your needs/requests are. We have just over an acre with 3 separate fence areas. The back yard is a 5 foot small grate wiring fence. The front yard is 5 foot as well and there is a small 3 foot picket fence within the larger front yard. The dogs have full run of the garage and back yard throughout the day with front yard access during supervised evening sniffs. The garage is fully insulated and temperature controlled with a couch and dog beds for afternoon naps. The dogs almost never come in the house because they don't get along with the cats so I end up spending lots of time outside filling in holes they have dug and playing fetch. We also have goat and cow neighbors so there is plenty to bark at throughout the day and they don't mind the noise. If your animals are ok with cats, they are more than welcome to sleep in the living room if you would like. I can accommodate crate trained or not.
17. Grace B.
About: Hello! I'm Grace and I'm an animal lover and people lover! I'm looking to bring that kind of care and love I know I would want for my puppies, to yours. I understand dogs can be like our children, and I want to make sure yours is taken care of 100% without worry! My dog is special needs, so I would have no problem administering medication as well as adjusting to any specific routine you have for your dog. I know some dogs may need longer walks and high energy play time as well, and I would happily provide those services. I am home full time now, and am looking to help people out as much as I can! I look forward to getting to know your pups!
18. Brenda M.
“Brenda was great with my pup I had for 17 years. She was willing to snuggle and love on him, just as I would have. She is gentle, kind, and loving. I highly recommend Brenda for your next petsitting needs.”
19. Jasmine Q.
About: I love dogs. My past pet experience are amazing dogs are the most pure-hearted animals I know. One comment I get a lot of that I attracted a lot of animals, cats too. I love cats as much as dogs, one think that will set me apart from other sitters is that I want the dog to trust me. I want the dogs I take care of to see me as someone that they are ok with and not someone that is just there to watch them. I want them to enjoy the time with me as much as I will enjoy my time with them. Cats as well I want your animals to trust me as much as you will trust me to take care of them. i’m currently in school with no job but i will work after and on weekends, i love animals and don’t mind spending most my time with them. i live with my mom and we have a big yard(1.8 acres) so they live running out side and i have a big room with lots of space and a big bed so animals can lay on it.
20. Claudia F.
“Claudia took care of my dogs while I was away for two weeks. You will never find anyone as great with animals as Claudia. My dogs absolutely love her and they go nuts when they see her. She is my go-to dog sitter and if she's not available, I honestly won't even make plans. She always goes above and beyond and even grabs my mail. Highly recommend.”
