“All I have to say is if you need a pet sitter for you cats or dogs or both and you want peace of mind while gone Mackenzie is who you should book. She was amazing and kept us in formed multiple times throughout the day giving updates and sending pictures. She even administered medicine to two of our cats multiple times a day. She was absolutely phenomenal and we will definitely be using her from now on when we go out of town. We HIGHLY recommended her to care for your fur babies if want someone who would care for them the same way you would !”

10. Cynthia C.
About: I am certified in Pet CPR through Red Cross. I currently have 2 dogs, and have also owned a cat, a hamster and a bird at one point in my life. I am a stay home wife/mom so I am home around the clock with ample time to walk, feed and love on your pet for the best care. I have a big yard both front and back, a crate (if needed) covered back patio, pool, and live out away from the city near a 3 mile walking trail.
11. Summer C.
“I recently had the pleasure of having Summer look after my dog, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. Summer was incredibly attentive and caring, ensuring my dog was well-fed, exercised, and loved. She sent regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. My dog seemed very happy and comfortable with her. I highly recommend Summer for anyone needing a reliable and compassionate dog sitter.”
12. Kira B.
About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed and love their pets! I promise to treat your pet as well as I do mine. I currently am working a full time hybrid job therefore I will have plenty of time to take care of your pet. I tend to always have a very flexible schedule. I live in a very safe dog friendly neighborhood with very few cars passing through my front yard a day. I enjoy going on walks with how safe the roads are and have lots of sidewalks and green grass!
13. Patrick B.
“This was our second time booking with Patrick. He was phenomenal and took the best care of our babies. Detailed notes, the cutest pictures, and even gave our dog extra attention during a storm. If you’re looking for an amazing sitter, Patrick is the one to choose.”
14. Kimberly G.
“Kimberly was absolutely amazing. Because we had never had left our kitties for an extended period, we were very anxious. Our anxiety was relieved when we met with Kimberly. Her charming personality and the affection she showed our kitties assured us they would be well cared for. The kitty humor, details and pictures and videos of her visits assured us that everything was ok. She is a five star caretaker and we will definitely request her services again.”
15. Yasmin A.
About: Hey there! My name is Yasmin, and I’ve always had a deep love for animals. I grew up with dogs and currently own a dog and cat so I understand the importance of a pet’s well-being and the trust required when someone else cares for them. I’ve only pet sat for friends before but over the past year I’ve had the amazing experience of fostering numerous different pets with the local Humane Society! This has given me experience with all different types of dogs and cats with varying ages and personalities 😊. Whether it’s a walk around the block, playtime in the yard, or cuddles on the couch, I’m committed to providing your pets with the same love and attention they get at home. I look forward to meeting your furry family members and giving them the care they deserve! I’m currently in the military on a M-F schedule. I get a break after PT and during lunch so your pet should never be alone for more than 5 hours. I have a fenced in yard that isn’t the biggest but enough to get the zoomies out! Inside my pets get free rein but are crated at night and when I am gone. Would be open to leaving pets out depending on circumstances.

“Would recommend! Gave pictures updated when dog supplies were low. Was easy to work with!”
17. Ginny C.
About: We have a cat and a dog of our own and they are like family for us! They are our babies! Let us love yours like our own as well! I would have all the animals if I could! We love spending time with our babies and would love to take care of yours just like you would! I will be home with them all day and night! Someone will be here around the clock unless we have to run a quick errand to which they won’t be here alone long! We are working on fencing in a portion of our 13 acres to care for others pets! We live way off the road and they have lots of area to play! We have plenty of area to walk them and let them play.
18. Jordan D.
“Jordan takes incredible care of my fur babies. I have a high needs doggo and cat that are happy and well loved when I get home. She tires my high energy dog out before I get home and even strips the guest bed before I return. I cannot recommend Jordan enough!”
19. Martha M.
“I work at a hospital where I have 12 hour shifts and do not have time to rush home during breaks. Martha takes great care of my Fur Baby when I cannot.”
20. Tyler K.
About: I’ve taken care of animals of mine, my neighbors, and friends and family since I was little. I am able and willing to treat your pets as if they were mine and I am excited to meet them! I currently work part-time and have plenty of time to take care of your loved ones. With enough notice, I can make most scheduled visits work. I love any and all kinds of animals, and I would do everything in my power to make sure they are safe and comfortable with me.
