“Toni was great! She was very flexible with times, and my dog was very calm and relaxed when I returned home. She kept me updated on how things were going and is very nice!”


“This is the first time we have had Roxanne sit for our dog Minnie and we will definitely be asking her to sit for us in the future. Roxanne sent us daily updates, pictures and videos of Minnie. Knowing that Minnie was well cared for made it easier leaving her for our vacation. We highly recommend Roxanne as a pet sitter.”

“Tonya did a fantastic job taking care of our boys and watching our house while we went on a short vacation. She kept us updated and I had no worries about our boys. She's the best and will definitely use her again.”

“Baylee house sat for my family while going on a trip for a week. She did a wonderful job taking care of our cat and large dog. She sent pictures regularly and we were quickly comforted that our animals were in good hands. I also appreciated how responsive she was and did not hesitate to ask questions if she had any. We came home to happy animals, a clean home, and a sweet thank you card she hand-made. I highly recommend her!”

“Such a great sitter, updated me with photos and always made sure I was okay with something prior to. Loki loved dorian and took to her quite well, being hes a belgian and is prone to hyperness and anxiety that made a world of difference. Deff will be using dorian in the near future.”

“John took excellent care of our dogs while we were away! We really appreciate the housesitting and the pictures we received on our trip. The dogs enjoyed the attention they received, and they look forward to future visits. Thanks for everything!”


About: Hello, I'm Amanda—a behavior specialist with a deep passion for working with children with autism. Alongside my professional role, I also run a business specializing in interior painting and light remodeling. With five wonderful kids—three young adults carving their paths, an animal-loving 18-year-old son, and a sweet, gentle 7-year-old daughter—family and community are at the heart of everything I do. Growing up surrounded by animals and spending summers on my grandparents' farm instilled a lifelong love for furry friends. That bond inspires my work today as I provide attentive, loving care for pets while their families are away. Whether it's supervising your beloved pup or ensuring all their needs are met, I take pride in being observant, detail-oriented, and dedicated to keeping them safe and happy at all times. In addition to being a great multitasker, I prioritize understanding the unique needs of every pet, bringing warmth and care into each interaction. I know leaving your cherished furbabies can be tough—that’s why my goal is to create a stress-free experience for both you and them. Thank you for taking the time to learn more about me! Feel free to message me with any questions or for more details. I look forward to meeting your furry family members and being part of their care. I am currently a caregiver for a family friend and so I am always home. I have full availability to step away anytime if your pup needs a walk or your pets need a drop in for food, exercise, or lovins. I have 2 dogs, 2 cats, 4 large fishtanks, and a handful of various reptiles (and growing). I have experience working at a wildlife rescue with all kinds of different animals.
“This is the second time Camille helped us out and she was great again. I love how well she communicates with us while we’re gone and I trust that my animals are receiving the best care.”

“Great communication and easy to work through details of the stay. Ron is a super kind person who will take great care of your pets! Don’t hesitate to book him to hang out with your pups!”

“Ali arrived on time and our dog Monty immediately took to her. She sent several pictures and followed our instructions flawlessly. Professional and courteous and we look forward to asking her again.”

About: I work for myself so my schedule is quite flexible - meaning your pets will have someone with them for at least 18 hours a day and can do things (walks etc) on their already-known schedule. Growing up my family had dogs for 15 years. Since moving out of state, I have loved my friends' and clients' animals as if they were my own pets - especially since I don't have the space to have my own pets currently. I've done overnight stays for clients with animals since 2021. Because I work from home those fur babies received around-the-clock care and attention. I have also worked with clients who just needed someone to drop-in for walks, check-ins, and feeding. I have experience with pets who needed a little extra care, including administering topical and oral medicines and figuring out stomach issues. If you're looking for a pet sitter who is flexible, available to be around most of the day, and has tons of pet love to give, you've found the right person. I work from home and make my own schedule, which allows me to work with clients and their pets' needs. I enjoy traveling which is why I do not have any pets of my own, but I love animals and take any opportunity to connect with people's pets. I currently live in a house with a dog and two cats, so I get to enjoy their company when I'm around. I cannot bring animals to the house I currently live in, but I am happy to care for your animals in the comfort of their own home. I notice that animals tend to be quite anxious for a night or two after their owner leaves, so I have a very gentle approach and give them space if needed. I enjoy sending updates and pictures to my clients (if they like to get updates) and I work with my clients to figure out how to make their animals as comfy as they can be with a new person around.

About: I’ve taken care of all types of dogs ranging from new born up to senior . I’m willing to walk , run or even just hang around and slowly get some outdoor activities in for an older dog. I’m currently unemployed and looking for side work to do and keep me busy in the meantime. I figured why not pet sit/walk since I have a lot of experience with them already .! I have a fenced yard and a friendly Chiweenie to keep your pet company if needed . I can pet sit / visit or kennel train if needed . If you have questions or certain ways you like your pet to be taken care of, don’t hesitate to bring it up .!
“Nellie is the absolute best! She always kept us updated on our pup (Mango) status and made her feel so special and even got her to go on walks beyond her comfort zone! And even though we were only gone 1 week, when we got home Mango was now missing Nellie! Nellie was like having one of our family watch our dog and we will definitely use her again whenever Mango needs a sitter.”

“Natalie did a fabulous job caring for our two big dogs while we were out of town. Her communication is awesome, she asks great questions, keeps us informed and updated on our boys, and left the house clean. We felt comfortable knowing she was there and will put her at the top of the list for rebooking the next time we travel. Our pups were happy and content. Thank you Natalie!”

“Kim did a great job! Very punctual and responds to communications very quickly. Amber looked perfectly happy with her in the pictures I sent. I was about an hour late in returning and Kim stayed on until I got home. Kim is easy going and accommodating. I highly recommend her.”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is that caring for animals has always been a normal part of my life. I grew up around animals and have experience caring for dogs of many ages and personalities, including energetic puppies and older dogs who need a slower pace and extra attention. I'm comfortable with the routines that come with good pet care: consistent feeding schedules, exercise, basic training reinforcement, and paying attention to changes in behavior that might mean a dog needs something. I have experience helping with puppy training basics life patience during walks, reinforcing commands, and keeping them mentally stimulated. I also understand that senior dogs sometimes need gentler exercise, more frequent bathroom breaks, and extra patience. In addition to dogs, I have experience working with animals in a farm environment, which taught me responsibility, consistency, and how important it is to pay attention to an animal's needs and body language. Because of that background, I'm calm, reliable, and comfortable around animals with different temperaments. Most importantly, I treat every pet like they're my own. I know how much trust it takes to leave your animal with someone else, and I take that responsibility seriously. Pet care has always been a natural part of my daily life. I grew up around animals and have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to older dogs who need a slower pace and extra attention. I enjoy spending time outdoors walking dogs, playing with them, and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. As a college student, I plan my schedule carefully, which allows me to stay organized and consistent with feeding times, walks, and check-ins. I genuinely enjoy being around animals, and spending time with them is something I look forward to throughout the week. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. I make sure pets are always supervised, comfortable, and kept in a calm environment where they feel secure. In a client's home, I carefully follow the pet's normal routine for feeding, walks, medications, and playtime so they experience as little disruption as possible. I also pay close attention to behavior and body language to make sure pets are feeling safe and happy. I respect my clients' homes and keep spaces clean, secure doors and gates, and communicate regularly with updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are being well cared for.
“Holly was so incredible with our three pups. They adored her and loved all the love and snuggles she provided. She also sent many picture updates which I appreciated during our 6 day booking. She was on top of the communication and we would highly recommend her!”

“From Anika's first stroking of my cat's fur during our meet and greet, I could see that he felt comfortable with her. It was comforting to know that he would let her provide the love and cuddles we wouldn't be home to give him. Thank you, Anika for taking good care of our senior cat!”

“Patricia was absolutely wonderful and I hope we can work with her again in the future! We had a bad past experience with a sitter and Patricia made my wife and I gain faith in this service again! Do not hesitate to book her, pretty sure some of our pets really missed her after just 1 week! She even left us flowers when she left!”

Kenzie did a wonderful job house/pet sitting for me. My dog is very precious to me and I am highly selective about who watches her when I am out of town. Kenzie was professional and communicative prior to the stay and throughout my trip. She sent regular updates and provided true peace of mind that my Rottweiler was being taken care of while I was away. She was also very respectful of my home. I would highly recommend!!
