Cheyanne was very patient with my two old pups, one of them requires extra care. She went out of her way to make sure he was not in pain and got tons of love. Will definitely use her again and so should you.

Could not be more happy with our pups being in the care of Alesscia. My 3 dogs that are typically very nervous when we are away, are so content and happy with her! She is an animal lover and it shows! My dogs were instantly in love with her. I came home to three happy dogs. Will definitely be requesting her in the future. 10 stars!!!

Alyssa was incredibly flexible and was able to add extra sittings when my flight was cancelled. She writes thorough report cards that always make me feel better about my cat's care.

About: I have taken care of pets since I was young girl. I also have worked as a Veterinary Technician on Langley Air Force Base. I enjoy pet sitting all kinds of animals, especially dogs and cats. I am retired and involved in some weekly activities, so pet sitting fits perfectly with my schedule. I enjoy the freedom and flexibility of pet sitting, not to mention the joy of being around pets. I am attentive, detail oriented and versatile. I believe in leaving things the way I found them, or better. I always strife to do my best at whatever I do, and I am a very trustworthy person.

Carissa went above and beyond for our two dogs, and I fully trusted her in our home. I already have her rebooked! She left detailed check in notes and sent lots of great pictures. Knowing she was checking in on them made me feel very at ease while traveling.

Savannah was Super! She stepped in on short notice and gave Bella and Hobbes so much thoughtful care and loving playtime. It made a huge difference knowing they were in such good hands. We’re so thankful for her kindness, flexibility, and the way she really connects with our pets. Can’t wait to have her back!

About: I’ve taken care of 4 dogs over the past couple decades. My current dog, Pumpkin Pie, I spoil and give her lots of attention and walks. She goes with me everywhere- from the park to the grocery store! I’m currently working full time, but I want to switch to a field I know I’ve always loved. I’m accepting weekends for now and hoping to work around my current schedule during the weekdays. When I’m house sitting, I make sure that I have all the information I need about the doggo. I make sure to greet and talk to them throughout my stay and make sure they’re comfortable and well fed.

About: Animals have been part of my life since the day I was born. I grew up on a farm outside of St. Louis where animals of all kinds were just daily life — not pets you visited, but family you lived alongside. As an only child, they were my closest companions, and that relationship followed me through every chapter of my life, across three states and a military base in Japan. My family’s experience with animals goes well beyond dogs and cats. Over the years we cared for an array of reptiles, frogs, rabbits, turtles, fish (at one point well over 100), two large-breed dogs, and multiple cats. My parents also bred and sold birds privately and to pet stores, including budgies, cockatiels, finches, lovebirds, and parrots. My first real taste of pet care as a service came when we were stationed in Japan, where we informally provided doggy daycare for my dad’s coworkers alongside our own two dogs. As a stay-at-home mom, I’m consistently available Monday through Friday from 9am to 3pm, which means your pet gets attentive, present care during the hours most sitters are at a desk job. No rushing home, no checking the clock. I left home to serve in the Navy, and while our household is currently pet-free (we’re waiting to see what direction our daughter gravitates toward before adding a new family member), the knowledge and instincts I built over a lifetime of hands-on animal care don’t go anywhere. One thing I always want to be upfront about: my daughter will be with me when I provide services. She’s 3 years old and genuinely one of the gentlest kids I’ve seen around animals. She approaches them the way she approaches babies — slow, soft, and full of care. She would happily take one of every animal home if she could. That said, I completely understand that some pets don’t do well around small children, and I’d rather be honest about that upfront than put your pet in an uncomfortable situation. If that’s your pet, I may not be the right fit, and there’s no hard feelings in that. What I can offer is a lifetime of real, hands-on experience with an enormous range of animals, a calm and attentive approach to care, and genuine love for the animals I work with. Your pet won’t just be looked after — they’ll be treated like family. As a stay-at-home mom, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine rather than being squeezed around a work schedule. I’m available Monday through Friday from 9am to 4pm and can give visiting pets consistent, unhurried attention throughout the day. Walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins all happen on a real schedule; not whenever I can manage to fit them in. All care takes place in your home, so your pet stays in the environment they already know and feel safe in. For drop-in visits and daycare, I follow your routines, your rules, and your preferences — my job is to be a seamless, trustworthy extension of you, not to do things my way. I’ll always communicate how visits go, including any changes in behavior, appetite, or energy that you’d want to know about. If your pet needs medication, has specific dietary needs, or requires a particular routine, I’m comfortable handling that. I bring 25 years of hands-on experience with a wide range of animals and temperaments, so you can feel confident leaving your pet in my care.

Thank you for taking care of my babies while I was away. Stephanie was able to squeeze me in with very short notice and was very punctual in the agreed on times. She sent me updates on the pets and the house, and I felt at ease the entire time.

This was our first time using a dog sitter for our boy Kane and what a great experience! Rachelle was very responsive and even did a meet and greet ahead of our trip out of town. She took lots of pictures and spent a good amount of time with Kane on each of her visits. We will definitely use Rachelle’s services again! A++

Shawna did a wonderful job caring for my cat, Dobby, while I was away for work. She and her kids are great with animals and they made sure Dobby received all the love while I was gone. Dobby is older and has some required special care and I always felt he was in good hands in Shawna. I will be booking her again in the future!

About: I am the owner of two silly cat's, but I have always been a dog lover. I grew up with dogs as a kid, and currently help friend's with their dogs as needed. What sets me apart is my attention to detail, strong communication, and genuine care. I am happy to send photo and updates so you always feel connected. I am dependable and observant. Your pet's peace and comfort are always my top priorities. I'm currently a full-time worker. During the week I am free to play and walk your pets anytime after 3:30pm. I have all day availability on the weekends. I am typically free after work so I am open to doing same day drop ins or walks, if it is feasible for me. I cannot guarantee I will always be able to, but I am willing to work with you. I offer personalized care for both dogs and cats. For dog walking, I'm calm, consistent, and safety focused. Whether you dog loves a fast paced walk or a sniff session, I will match their needs. As a cat owner, I know it's all about timing and trust. I am patient and respectful of their space.
