About: I have been taking care of dogs my whole life! I have seen a number of dogs from puppy to senior age! I mostly have experience with bigger breeds but have a big love for small breeds as well! I work full time however as I am remote Mondays and Fridays, I have flexibility those days along with weekends! This is a passion of mine so if I want to make it fit, I will! In my clients homes, I like to ensure there is ample but clean space for the dog to play and rest! I follow the clients instructions to a T to insure their pet is well taken care of and happy!
“Jill is so amazing to my baby Thor. I actually have a super hard time trusting anyone and meeting her she goes above and beyond to make him be at ease with my long hours. I’m so blessed to have met her in person. She’s very accommodating to schedules and very caring. If your going to anyone else your wrong, she’s phenomenal. Thor and I are so blessed! Book with her. I met her yesterday and she keeps her word, is kind and updates me (my dog has ficone syndrome and finding someone is difficult) she makes sure he’s ok when she stops by. Thor will not stop wagging about the house about his day with Jill. Thank you again for taking care of my baby!”
“I continue to be so pleased with Katey’s support as a sitter for my very senior cat, Clarabelle. She is compassionate and kind, very professional and has developed a great rapport with my cat. Katey is an outstanding sitter!!”
About: I live with a Great Dane and a Mini Pitcher/Chihuahua mix. I have walked my neighbors dogs when they were out of town and played with them in their yard for a while. I watched my neighbors cats for a while until they moved, this involved feeding, changing water, loving on them, and changing their litter boxes, also cleaning the occasional puke. I currently am unemployed and looking for something to do with my time so I am very flexible and open. I am willing to make things work for you. Having a big dog and a small dog I am very comfortable around dogs and understand that these are your children. Also having experiences with cats lets me know how to treat them as well. Walking the dogs especially in the summer can be tough because of the heat so if I think it’s to hot I will not walk your dog, but would love to reschedule a different time.
“Did a great job of caring for my little kitty. Also watered my plant exactly as asked. Sent plenty of photos and nice descriptions of what happened each visit, and left everything in my home as it was when I left. Amazing sitter!”
About: I have several years of pet-sitting experience and have cared for both cats and dogs—from energetic puppies to senior companions. My own cat is 17 years young! I treat every pet with patience, affection, and attention, just like family. I know how reassuring updates can be, so I always share regular photos and check-ins. You can count on me to care for your pet with love and reliability. Flexible work schedule, I can typically work around you! Weekdays and weekends available. Whether it’s a daily visit or an extended stay, I’m happy to adjust my routine to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or my client’s, I prioritize creating a calm, safe, and loving environment. In a client’s home, I make sure to follow their routines closely—feeding, walking, playing, and administering any needed medication according to their instructions. I’m respectful of the home and try to leave everything as I found it. I stay in regular contact with updates and photos so you know your pet is in good hands.
“Barbara was wonderful. She visited Pangur (aka Mama) even before we left for our vacation. She always communicated with us to ease our mind while we were away. I would highly recommend and use Barbara again. And our Mama loved her too!”
About: I truly have compassion and care for all animals. I am willing to listen to your pet care needs and follow all your instructions to care for your pet as you would like. I grew up on a farm and have been around all types of animals all my life! I currently work full time, however I work from home some days out of the week. And my schedule is fortunately very flexible. I'm able to care to care for animals during early mornings before work, for lunch visits, after 5pm and almost always weekends or holidays. Pet safety is a high priority in my household. I keep my home clean and all cleaning chemicals are stored in cabinets out of my pets access. I have a large fenced safe backyard that my daughter's dog enjoys running around every time he visits.
“Kasper is the best! They took extra good care of my 3 kitties and followed all instructions left. They sent me tons of pictures and left detailed notes of each visit. I felt the my kitties were safe and in caring hands with Kasper. I also felt my house was safe and locked up properly each time. I will 100% be reaching out for Kasper’s services again in the future. - I can tell you truly care about animals and that’s very important to me in a petsitter. Thank you again for everything.”
About: With 30 years of pet sitting under my belt, I’ve seen it all—tail wags, purrs, and the occasional goat mischief! From pampered pups to sassy cats and quirky farm friends, I’ve built a life around loving and caring for animals of all kinds. Trustworthy, reliable, and always ready with a treat (or two), I make sure your pets feel right at home while you're away. Think of me as your furry (and hooved) family’s favorite human! Life doesn’t always follow a 9-to-5, and neither do pets! I offer care to fit your schedule—including early mornings, evenings, and weekends. Whether your pet needs a sunrise stroll, a dinner-time cuddle, or care during a weekend getaway, I’m here to help—on your time. I also do sniff spots - basically it’s like a private dog park for you in my backyard. Message me for details. When it comes to caring for your pets, trust is everything—and I’m committed to earning and keeping that trust every day. I’m neat, organized, and always follow the guidelines you provide to ensure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for. Whether it’s feeding schedules, medication routines, or favorite playtime spots, I take every detail seriously. Above all, your pet’s safety is my top priority, and I’ll treat them like my own, with love and care every step of the way. Please note for the safety of all pets and people proof of your pet’s up to date vaccination records will be required.
