“Chloe went above and beyond with her care of our sweet girl and home in our absence! While we missed our pup, we were in complete ease with the thoughtful and fun updates from Chloe that made our time away even more enjoyable! While taking such great care of pup, she also took such great care in keeping our home fresh for our return! We will absolutely ask Chloe for her services again soon!”

“Alexandra was absolutely wonderful with my dog. He’s notoriously sensitive to change—often refusing to eat and hiding when I’m away. But within just two days of being with Alexandra, he was out of his shell and eating normally. Her calm, caring approach clearly made him feel safe and comfortable. I’m beyond grateful and will definitely be booking her again for future trips. Highly recommend!”

“Stephanie was awesome! All my animals loved her! She sent tons of photos and videos and it was a great experience knowing our pets were in good hands!”

About: I have always had a strong passion for animals and have taken every opportunity to care for and support them. Over the years, I have provided reliable dog and cat sitting services, working with a variety of breeds and sizes. Growing up in a home that always included pets has given me a deep appreciation for animals and a natural ability to care for them with patience, attention, and love. I would love the opportunity to provide your furry companion with the love, care, and happiness they deserve. I have a very flexible schedule and am currently available at a variety of times. With clear communication regarding dates and times needed, I will be able to promptly confirm my availability and ensure I can meet your scheduling needs. Every animal is unique, and I tailor care routines to best fit each pet’s individual needs and schedule. I believe clear communication is key to creating the perfect care plan for your furry companion. I always prioritize dedicated playtime and, depending on the pet, provide walks and outdoor time to keep them happy and active. I am highly flexible and committed to meeting the specific needs of every animal in my care.

“Ken was so great with our dogs, he played with them and love them like they were his own dogs, it was really awesome to have him take care of them for us, he's a really nice guy and very down to earth and easy to communicate with. Highly recommended!”

About: I have taken care of dogs of all kinds just about all my life. My grandma takes care of dogs and I am always helping her out. I also have a job at The Woods Canine Resort and Spa where I tend to many dogs every day. I have a part-time job, so I have plenty of time in my schedule to take care of dogs. I am available during the week and weekends for boarding. I have a big open yard with plenty of room for your pets to run around and play. I also have room for a crate if needed. I want to make sure every dog is comfortable and given the best care with me.

“Emily was fantastic to work with. She sent us lots of pictures, and kept us informed of their wellbeing. We felt very comfortable with having her watch our dogs and cats after out initial meeting. We came home and all 5 of our babies were happy, and healthy. Would love to have her watch them in the future.”

About: I’ve grown up around all types of pets and absolutely love all animals! We’ve had an array of animals in our house growing up such as a German shepherd, parakeets, love birds, hamsters, gerbils, hermit crabs, and Jack Russell terriers! I now own three dogs! We have a super sweet labrador, a frenchie, and a boxer-pit mix. We love taking our big dogs on hikes and out to socialize any chance we get! Daily walks and outside time are a must for our pups and we love every minute of it. I have experience with IVDD and surgeries to follow with my French Bulldog. With that being said, I have first hand experience with caring for a medically fragile animal, administering medications, and seeing signs of discomfort in animals. As a pet owner and lover I know the importance of making sure you have someone you trust with your animal babies! I’m transitioning from being in the classroom full time to substitute teaching once school starts back up. I am free for the summer and will have flexibility in my schedule, especially for afternoons and evenings. I take my own pups out for a walk at least twice a day morning and evening. They also have outside time at least 3-4 times a day for 20+ minutes. If you choose to have your pet board with us we have a full privacy fenced backyard. We also have crates and gated off rooms to separate pups in they need a break or some down time. Our neighborhood is very walkable and private with low traffic.

“Such a great experience. Took such good care of my doggy. Amd went above and beyond and made sure the cats were good too.”

“John was EXCELLENT and extremely respectful and professional. I think my dog was disappointed to see me when I returned home, as she LOVED John :)”

“Meghann was great with our dogs and cat. We could not believe how quickly our small dog, who is scared of everything and everyone, warmed up to her. Within a day she was snuggling up with Meghann on the couch. Totally unheard of. Our other dog, a lab, loved her as well, and the cat seemed as happy as he ever is. The house was clean and tidy when we got home. We would definitely have Meghann sit for us again.”

“I highly recommend Gucci’s daycare sitter to anyone looking for dependable, professional, and loving pet care. As someone with a very busy schedule balancing work and school, having a sitter I can trust gives me tremendous peace of mind. Her communication is excellent—she keeps me updated consistently and sends pictures of Gucci throughout the day, which reassures me that he is safe, happy, and well cared for. It is very clear that Gucci is comfortable in her care because he never shows signs of anxiety when he returns home. In fact, he comes home happy, relaxed, and pleasantly tired from having such an active and enjoyable day. She is professional, attentive, trustworthy, and provides exceptional care at a very affordable rate. I truly feel that Gucci is in great hands whenever he is with her. I am beyond grateful to have found someone who treats my dog with such care and attention. Highly recommended!”

About: I have had pets my whole life practically. We currently have 2 dogs, 4 cats and 14 chickens with some more on the way! I’ve had rabbits, hamsters, a guinea pig, an iguana, bearded dragons, geckos, a blue tongue skunk and a ball python. I love MOST animals!! (No spiders or bugs) Animals make life so special and they deserve all the love and care!! I had to quit a pharmacy technician career to be home and available for my daughter who is still in treatment for leukemia so I’d love to take care of your fur babies!! I’m taking care of animals every day! There is never a time that I’m sitting down that I don’t have a dog or cat in my lap. If I’m not sitting, they’re following me around everywhere! And I tend to my chickens daily, collecting eggs, checking feed and water and giving treats! I have only sat for people in their home so far. I follow what instructions they leave and check in with them to let them know how things are going. I would want that reassurance so I do that for my clients.

“Carley was amazing! I highly recommend her! She was professional, on time, and checked in on my dogs multiple times a day. Carley checked in with me multiple times a day and sent me multiple photos. I felt very comfortable knowing she was taking such good care of my boys. I will definitely book her again!”

“Sally did a great job taking care of our sweet boy (and our house)! I'm somewhat of a neat freak and she didn't question any of the house rules and the place looked as tidy as it did when we left. Most importantly, we felt comfortable leaving our 10-year old dog with her, especially as we were worried to leave him alone after his brother passed recently. (He's been extra needy.) We highly recommend her and hope to be able to book her again. THANK YOU, Sally!!”

“Timia did amazing by with our boy. She was communicative, she left our home better than she found it, and was very kind and present for our baby. 10/10 recommended- will be seeing if she is available first for all trips.”

About: As a high school teacher, I’m dependable, patient, and calm under pressure. I’ve personally owned three dogs over the past 25 years, so I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. I do not currently have pets in my home, which allows me to give focused attention and care to the dogs I work with. I also love being outdoors and enjoy walks, routines, updates, and helping pets feel comfortable and cared for. As a teacher, I’m very organized and consistent with routines. During the summer, I have a flexible schedule with plenty of availability throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, and quality time with pets. During the school year, I’m available in the afternoons, evenings, weekends, holidays, and school breaks. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I enjoy being active, outdoors, and dependable for both pets and their owners. I care for pets with patience, consistency, and lots of attention. With my own dogs over the years, I loved taking them on walks, riverwalks, lake outings, and other safe outdoor adventures. I enjoy keeping dogs active, comfortable, and cared for while also respecting each owner’s routines and instructions.

“Carol was very sweet and attentive to my younger, skittish dachshund and older, blind dachshund.”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and cats. I’m reliable and take the time to make sure they feel comfortable. I can help with dogs (basic routines and leash walking) and I’m patient with senior pets who need a little extra care. I treat every pet like my own I work at a dog grooming place most days, so I’m around animals all the time. I’m off on Sundays and Wednesdays and have more flexibility then, but I can still do pet care after work on other days if that’s needed. I care for pets in my client’s home by following their routine for feeding, walks, and playtime. I keep them safe, clean up after them and spend time with them so they feel comfortable. I also follow any special instructions and send updates to the owner.
