“Stacy was amazing. She cleaned the litter and was there on time as requested every day. Our cats seemed to really like her since the first few days we got back they would wait by the door for her. She also sent us updates and pictures daily.”
“Mindy and her husband made daily drop in visits with my cat for a week while I was gone visiting family. They came by every day at a consistent time to feed and check on him. My cat is slow to warm up to new people but he was letting her pet him and became very comfortable with them. I received daily reports and photos which made me relax and enjoy my time away! I highly recommend Mindy as a pet sitter and will definitely call her again. Thank you Mindy!”
“Shannon did wonderful checking on the cats while I was away! Always let me know when she would be there and sent me pictures to show me they were fine. I would recommend Shannon to anyone needing excellent care for their pets!! Thanks Shannon.”
“Claire is very sweet and got the job done, and we got cute updates along the way. Thank you Claire!”
About: From a young age I’ve been the go-to pet person in my family—feeding, walking, playing, and snuggling with our cats and dogs. I continue to accept opportunities to care for furry friends . Making animals feel safe, happy, and loved, isn’t just something I do—it’s something I truly love. Currently, I have a handsome tabby. As a stay at home mom, my schedule is free, flexible, and ready to meet your needs. Want someone once a day? Twice a day? Or 4x a week? I’m ready and more than willing. As a stay-at-home mom, I bring my 8-month-old baby with me during pop-in visits, but there will be no interaction between your pet and my child to ensure safety. I stop by to check on your pet, make sure they’re fed, comfortable, and well-cared for. I always respect your home and your pet’s routine, providing calm, reliable care.
About: Ive owned animals my whole life! I’ve worked at a veterinarian clinic for two years as a veterinarian assistant, currently working on becoming a veterinarian technician. I’ve watched livestock, dogs, cats, and much more! I’m up at 5:30 am on weekdays to care for my own animals before leaving for work at 7 am. When I get home it’s straight to tending to my animals. Friday through Sunday I’m up by 7 am to tend to my animals! I have a fenced double lot yard for your babies to run! I also have a crate or room for your crates. I have animals that are fully vaccinated so that they are able to play! And multiple rooms if need to be separated.
About: I’m currently a Veterinary Assistant at an animal hospital I’ve worked at for over 6 years. I’ve had dogs from small to big, growing up. I have experience taking care of family, friends, and coworkers pets. I am very comfortable taking care of your kiddos no matter the breed, size or age 😊🐾 I work full time. I am available all day Sunday/Monday. During my workweek (Tuesday-Saturday) I’m available after 4pm for walks, potty breaks or any care. I can house sit any day of the week but note that I will be at work from 7am-4pm. If not too far from my workplace, I can stop by on my lunch break to check on your pet for a potty break. I will follow whatever rules and or schedule you may have for your pet. They are my top priority so they will be monitored, played with and loved while in my care ❤️🐾

About: I grew up on a farm, so animals have always been part of my world—feeding chickens before breakfast, brushing horses after school, and getting covered in dog hair in between! I’ve looked after everything from bouncy puppies to mellow senior dogs, and I’ve always had an easy, natural connection with animals. They seem to sense that I’m one of the good ones. I’m great at picking up on their vibes—whether they’re in the mood to zoom around or just want some chill cuddle time. Taking care of animals is second nature to me, and honestly, it’s one of my favorite things to do. I live a flexible lifestyle and am fully available to care for your pets. Since I’m not tied to a traditional job or schedule, I can offer your fur babies lots of time, attention, and consistency. Whether it’s daily walks, extended stays, or last-minute needs, I’m here to help and happy to adapt to your routine. I prioritize creating a safe, nurturing environment wherever I’m staying. I care for pets in their own familiar space, which helps them feel secure and relaxed. I’m attentive to routines, respectful of your home, and can adapt to any special needs your pet may have—whether that means crating, administering medication, or extra cuddle time.
“Courtney was a wonderful choice to hang with my Golden Retriever, Suni. They walked, played, and Suni had a fabulous time with her:)”
“Marin always communicated when asked. It seemed like Poppy liked her and was always sitting on her lap!”
About: I have an almost 2 year old chihuahua dachshund, he’s a very friendly little guy. I love small and medium dogs and have house/pet sat for many friends, family; and coworkers with dogs ranging from little dachshunds to golden retrievers. I love going on walks as well and would love to take your dog on an outing. I’m looking for part time and spontaneous jobs like an occasional dogsitting job or dog walking job. I’m also available for pet sitting in home or at my own home. I will be respectful of what you ask for your pet and your home if I am going into it, it’s your pet and your home :)
“I'm so glad that I chose Shawna to board my precious kitty. From the moment I first contacted her, I felt comfortable trusting her with him, and she went above and beyond to make him comfortable with her and her household. I definitely recommend her to anyone, especially if you have a scaredy cat like mine. Thank you, Shawna, from the both of us!”
“OMG! My kitties loved Crystal! We got lots of photos and updates during our trip. We made an excellent choice with Crystal and she will be our go-to sitter from now on. The kitties and we feel like we have gained a new member of our family. LOVE HER!”
About: Born and bred a Cowgirl - I grew up on a ranch where I worked with many different animals and tending all their needs. My method of training is with treats, positive affirmations, and kisses. I am a clean, bubbly, and energetic woman with the deepest love for our four legged friends. I work remotely so I will be able to take the animals out every hour and daily walks! My attentive nature and kind spirit, your baby will be loved and taken care of and as if they were my own. My home is clean, cozy, and private. We have a big back yard that is partially fenced. I have two friendly dogs who are best friends and they will keep yours company! I believe in clean organization, safe space, kindness, and focusing on what is needed to be done. Your family member will get round the clock care, love, and safety.
About: I will treat your pet with the utmost of care, just as I would my own. I love all animals and it gives me great joy to spend time with my furry friends. I am available most days to check in on your pets, feeding times and/or walks. If your pet has any special needs I am here to help. Walks and playtime are a must. If your dog or kitty needs a walk, feeding, brushing or just some tender loving care I am here to meet those needs.
About: I can care for cats, dogs, kittens, puppies, all the way up to horses. I am not complete without a pup following me around and a cat ignoring me lol! I love animals and they love me right back. I have an open schedule, so whatever the client needs can usually be accommodated. I prefer a few days advance notice for housesitting for overnight stays, but I can be flexible too. I guess I think of my pets and your pets as my kids, of equal importance. I keep a watchful eye for their safety. I make sure they have plenty of what they need, which is food, water, exercise, and a whole lot of love. I am calm in a crisis and can remain so while making sure your pet receives immediate care, should that be necessary. Your pet will be just as important to me as my own.
“Jacquelyn was prompt and very nurturing with our 18 year old cat. She sent us great pictures to show us Angel was well and happy. We will definitely want her to take care of our Angel again in the future.”
