“Christopher did a fantastic job! I was so happy he could fill in for us at the last minute. He took great care of our pets and we enjoyed the daily pictures. He even brought in a couple of packages which were delivered.”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats all my life. I can’t imagine life without them! My family has had everything from Great Danes to 2lb Yorkies. I currently have a Great Pyrenees Chocolate Lab puppy under a year old. I’m experienced in senior care and special needs/medication giving. I’ve given pills and liquid medications. I have even assisted with under the skin medication administration. I’ve had an old baby that I had to prepare special food for due to kidney failure requiring a special diet. I’ve had a deaf and partially blind weenie dog. My family dog passed away at 17 years old and was deaf, blind, and required special care. I took in a 15 year old pup with cancer and heart failure that required close monitoring, medications, and special care. I had a pitbull who had a trauma issue and separation anxiety that required special care. All of this to say, I’m not one to shy away from any furbaby! Special needs, senior care, small breed, big breed, I will work with you on whatever you and your furbabies need! I also have two cats myself and am willing to watch cats. I’ve had kittens to old cats and love them all! I would love to care for your babies in whatever capacity you need! I currently work Monday through Friday. I’m available to care for your babies any day of the week before and after work. I may not be available during the entire day, but I will still do everything I can to give your pet(s) all the love and attention they deserve! I normally run errands with my pets, so I’m used to having dogs with me 24/7 if you’re okay with your pet(s) getting out and about a little bit. I can watch your pets at your home for their comfort. I want them to feel safe and cared for while you’re away, whether it be out for the evening or away overnight. I’ll love and care for them just as much as I do my own.
About: Experienced pet sitter, caring for cats, dogs, birds, fish, horses and livestock! I can do drop ins and house or barn sitting. We fetch the fun! Flexible schedule provides plenty of time to care for pets. I’m usually available to do drop ins and take for walks if needed! Dog parks are also available! I will follow any requests for taking care of your pet in your home. If needed, I can also crate small dogs away from my pack at my home.
About: I've have grown up taking care of cats and dogs from a young age. In high school, my education focus was in animal science, where I shadowed multiple veterinary offices. In college, I took several semesters of pre-vet courses before I switched majors. I entered the pet sitting business to help out family and friends when on vacations. I am able to work on training puppies as I have crate trained and obedience trained my own, as well as administer medications for pets old and young. I have even owned and cared for senior pets with varying medical needs. I currently work a full-time job Monday-Friday 9AM-5PM during the week so you can expect your pets will be cared for and played with early in the day for at least an hour. When I return home care and play time will last until I go to sleep around 9-10PM. My weekends are typically wide open and so pets will have opportunities to cuddle,play, and relax all day. My property has a large yard that dogs can play in, along with a pond, and trails for those who like to hike and explore. Indoors I have a large house with a friendly dog to keep your dog company when I'm away. I am able to crate or contain your dog to one area if needed. I also have two cats that are present in the home but can be kept separate from the dogs if needed. I have adequate space to allow for pets needing a playful and/or a quiet environment. I always make sure to build trust with the pets I care for so they are comfortable with me. All areas the pets are allowed to go will be pet proof to ensure the utmost safety.
“Elmira did an excellent job caring for my kitten. She was respectful of my space, took great pics of him, played with him even at his feistiest, and was willing to trouble shoot issues with my auto litterbox. Would definitely recommend her to sit your babies!”
About: With me, your pet is guaranteed to receive personalized, loving care. Growing up in a large, close-knit family, I've been surrounded by dogs from an early age, and they've always been an integral part of my life. My experience in raising dogs all my life has made me highly attuned to their needs. I currently have a loving American Bulldog named Apollo, who you'll see under the orange cover in my profile gallery, along with other dogs I've cared for in the past. I've been dog sitting for years, and it’s more than just a job—it's a passion. I understand how important dogs are to a family, having experienced firsthand the comfort and joy they bring to our lives. When caring for your pet, I prioritize keeping you informed with regular pictures and updates, so you can feel at ease knowing your furry friend is happy and well cared for. I tailor my care to your pet’s specific needs and your preferences, so just let me know your pups fav trails and playtime activities and I’m happy to accommodate. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to offer dog walks, play dates, and dog sitting at your home, including overnight stays if needed. I always take the time to understand your pet’s routine and habits, ensuring they receive the best care possible while you're away. I work Mon-Fri. But have the flexibility to leave multiple times throughout the day. I am able to do overnight stays Sunday - Saturday as long as you are comfortable with a sitter that has a 9-5. Open to taking the kids to the park, on a nice walk or even a small trial hike! Whatever meets your needs as a parent. Unfortunately I am not open to overnight sitting services within my own home. I can however bring your pet for a play date with my own dog or bring them to my house for a temporary moment of time.

Sebastian S.
“I have known Sebastian for six years and I can say he loves animals. Since I have known him, I have seen him care for his beloved pet and others as well. His dog was a senior citizen and I watched him do anything he could to make her life wonderful. Having an older dog comes with a lot of responsibilities when it comes to their care. So you can trust that he will know how to handle any extra attention your pet might need. He lavished his pup with affection and even carried her around in a sling! So know he will give your pet all the love it needs. I would recomend him to any friend or family member as someone who I could trust to go above and beyond to care for my pet.”

Mark B.
“Mark was fantastic when watching our little mini golden doodle, Belle. She is 5 years old, and can be fearful when we leave the house. He was so kind to her, and sent us pics of her playing and being happy. Mark even kept the house cleaned and watered our plants when he wasn’t asked to! It was so great, we didn’t even think about mentioning that while we were gone for 10 days. Definitely would recommend, such a nice trustworthy person!!”
