“Mary took care of my dogs while my husband was away, and I was at work, and I couldn't be happier with her service. She walked and played with them daily, ensuring they were well taken care of. My pups absolutely loved her! Mary was always punctual and provided fantastic photos and videos, keeping me updated throughout the week. We will definitely reach out to her for any future pet care needs! We would definitely recommend her to anyone!”

About: i've always had dogs in the house. I've always had at least 3 dogs in my house at a time, growing up my best memories were going on hikes with all my dogs. I've always been running and playing with dogs. I'm currently working at Liberty on the Lake. I have my availability set to 4pm to close there though i do work morning and/or night shift on weekends. in my free time i walk my dogs and take my one energetic dog on a run. I am able to take any specifically energetic dogs on runs! I just love animals and it would be a cool experience to hang out with them. I walk in the house and see if a dog comes up to me, if not i call the name of the dog. I take the dog out to go potty and for a walk. If needed i'll feed the dog.

“Whitney was great. Good communication and friendly. Loved that she took a picture of our girl and sent it. She was very accommodating to our change in schedule as well. We will definitely be booking her again. Thanks Whitney!”


“Sadie was awesome! Our cats loved her immediately as she came in the door. She kept great communication and sent lots of photos. We were very pleased with our experience.”


“Melinda was AMAZING with our dogs (and turtle) we had a few last minute issues with our turtle sitter and she helped bail us out! The dogs were loved and cared for wonderfully. We will FOR SURE use Melinda again!”


About: I have had animals my whole life. They are the most precious things to me. All of my pets have exceeded the average life span and were extremely well cared for. I promise to care for your animals as if they were my own. I am a mom of 2, a 10 year old boy and 7 year old girl. I am currently staying home with them for the summer and want a part time job doing something I love and am passionate about. I love to walk dogs, play with them, feed them, can give them medications, clean up after them, can do some grooming. I also love cats, and will play with them, give them plenty of cuddles, clean litter boxes, etc.

About: Hi! I’m Haley, a sitter who will treat your animals like family (because they are). I have my own kitty who I am very selective with who I allow to care for her. She deserves the best and so do your loved ones! I’m a passionate animal lover with hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. From energetic puppies to senior pets, I’ve worked with a wide range of furry friends and pride myself on providing personalized, loving care. I have special experience administering medications to dogs and cats (one of my own cats has epilepsy and requires twice-daily medication), so I understand how important it is to follow routines carefully and calmly. Whether your pet needs playtime, cuddles, quiet companionship, or a bit of extra care, I’m here to help. I believe every animal deserves kindness, safety, and respect. I treat every pet like they’re my own. Let’s chat about how I can support you and your pets! Although I work a fast-paced full-time job as a social worker during the week, I always make time for what I love — caring for animals! I’m available in the afternoons, evenings, and on weekends to give your pets the attention, care, and love they deserve. I provide pet care exclusively in my clients’ homes to help pets feel safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. I always follow your care instructions closely, whether that includes feeding schedules, walks, playtime, administering medication, or just offering companionship. I treat every home with respect and every pet like family — ensuring they’re happy, healthy, and well-loved while you’re away.

“Rebecca was great! Super informative about her visit and took lots of pictures too. You can tell she really cares about your animals and does everything she can to keep them comfortable and happy. We will definitely use her again!”


About: I have experience caring for all ages of dogs, several different breeds, and have even raised puppies from birth. I grew up training and raising national champion rabbit tracking and deer/blood tracking standard dachshunds. While no longer in the practice, I have three wonderful dogs of my own and adore every unique breed regardless of size or demeanor. I am currently working full time but during weekends I am available at all hours. In the coming months my hours will increase due to my children being in school during the day and very likely cutting my full time job’s hours to part time. I will treat every animal as if they were my own. In a client’s home, I will respect their space and follow directions exactly as described/dictated.

About: I am the dog mom to a reactive rescue dog. My rescue dog has minor health and behavioral challenges so I am used to handling medication and loving pets with diverse needs! I am communicative, punctual, and have a passion for animal rights. I am a teacher by trade, so during the school year I am only available after 5pm and the weekends. I have more availability for walks during the day time and overnight visits during holiday breaks/summer. I try my best to update my calendar often! I cannot care for your pet in my home because of my dog’s needs. I ask to do a consultation and meet you in person in your home to make sure I am a good match for you and your pet before house sitting. I will respect all directions given to me.

“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Melanie! She did an absolutely outstanding job taking care of my sweet dog, Penny. From the moment they met, I could tell Penny felt comfortable and loved—which gave me so much peace of mind. Melanie was attentive, kind, and clearly has a natural gift with animals. She went above and beyond to make sure Penny was happy, well-exercised, and cared for like family. I came home to a very content pup and couldn’t be more grateful. I would trust Melanie with Penny again in a heartbeat!”

Eiren D.

“Eiren was wonderful! Such a lifesaver! She handled my pup with patience and care, but more importantly, she handled this anxious owner. I would definitely recommend her for visits!”


Alexandria A.
“Scott and Allie are trustworthy, attentive to detail, and professional. They have sat our two cats and we couldn't have been more pleased. They were timely and kept us informed via text as to when they were coming and the care they provided. Our cats were well cared for and loved on in our absence and what more could we ask for. I would highly recommend them for pet care and will be using them in the future.”
