“Alyssa did a great job making my rescue pup with separation anxiety comfortable. Within a few minutes, she had her taking treats and rolling over for belly scratches.”


“Jessica is nice & she is good with Dexter! Takes him for walks and everything. She worked during her stay, which we agreed to, but she was gone a little longer than I expected based on her work schedule. Otherwise, she was good with Dexter and left the house in good order when she left.”



“Jenny put up with our ridiculous Frenchies and even collected eggs from the chickens each day. The house was in the shape we left it and she communicated each day with updates. Would recommend!”


“Zayda is the BEST! Great at communicating, takes excellent care of our dogs, and leaves our house soooo clean! It was so nice coming home after a long international trip to happy dogs and clean home.”


“Alyssa did a wonderful job coming to our home and watching our older chocolate lab, Coco and our 2 year old miniature dachshund, Max. She treated are furbabies as they were her own. A+! ?❤”


“Scott and Argus were amazing companions to Hurley! Scott sent great pictures so we could stay connected to Hurley while we are gone. Scott is great and we would have him watch Hurley again for sure!”


“Hannah is a repeat sitter for us and is great! Gives us lots of updates and has great, quick communication! Both our dogs seem to love her attention and she is great at getting their energy out!”


About: I grew up in an animal loving family and now want to offer my services to other animal lovers! We have had many foster dogs and puppies. I have gone through the potty/leash training phase many times. I also have experience with farm animals as well as kitties! Typically I walk our dogs every other day. I have a fenced yard for playtime and potty breaks during the day. I am going back to school in the Fall and will have a much more flexible schedule during the week and weekends. In our home, the dogs are allowed on the furniture. They sleep in the bed, but our female is crated during the day as she has liked to chew on more than toys in the past. I have a fenced yard and a nice neighborhood for walks. My fiancé lives with me, but it would be just me that is in care of the animals.

“Joanna was a perfect fit for our situation! She came over to meet us and our dog and spent time really getting to know him. She took great care of him and was able to manage the household as well! We are so thankful for her care!”


About: I can care for any type of animal you can think of. Let me know the animal and I will help you out! I have taken care of exotic pets to farm pets. I work a part time job so I have a lot of free time to hang out and take care of the animals I am sitting. Your animal will not be left alone for more then 2 hours at a time. I will care for your animal as close as I can as you do yourself. Your animal will feel at home and loved and cared for.

About: I've had dogs and cats all my life. I am the type to keep my dogs active whether it be playing fetch in the yard or throwing the stick in the lake for them to fetch. I believe in lots of play toys and chewys so they never get bored. I also understand the dog who might be more calm, maybe a little shy and likes time alone, and that is very understandable. I am a retired nurse and know pretty well the signs and symptoms of pain or discomfort. I understand the importance of proper nutrition and availability of fresh water. I lost my 14 yr. old lab to old age 2 years ago, and just recently got a new yellow lab puppy here in March. I really missed having a travel companion! I'm a unique pet/house sitter in that I travel in my beautiful Canadian Roadtrek Campervan and can house "watch" while taking care of your pets. I do not need to stay in your home. Any additional duties other than "watch" your house can be negotiated- like water a few houseplants, etc. I do ask that you provide a household electric (120V) outside plug in. My small RV uses approx. $2-$3 per day of electricity. I love animals. I have a yellow Labrador myself! I travel often in my RV and we make great travel partners often stopping at dog parks 2-3 times a day on our adventures. Beau would love to have playmates! I can only provide mobile pet/house sitting. I am unable to pet sit in the home I live in. I am a recently retired nurse. I am trained not only in human CPR, but I also have dog and cat CPR training. I have given pets medication, induced vomiting -per instructions while on the phone with a vet tech (after dog ate 1 1/2 lbs of bing cherries - pits and all. Happy ending! :). When I go into a home I find myself scanning countertops and floors for potential hazards for pets - things like medications, foods, hot boiling water on stovetop with handles pointing out, etc... I am constantly monitoring for potential dangers. Sometimes things happen though, unfortunately, that can't be avoided and that's when first aid, CPR, poison control line, and Vet info should all be available and handy. I ask that all instructions be written down and text/emailed to me 24 hours prior. That way if I have any questions, they can be answered before you leave on your relaxing worry-free vacation!

About: Dogs bring us all so much joy! I have had one my whole life. I walk my dog everyday and would love to walk yours too! I work part time which affords me the time to take care of your pet. I work part time which gives me availability to walk your pet! I love hiking, walking or running. It would be even better to do this with your pet! I have lived in this area my whole life. I am happy to come take care of your pet when you need it! Nobody wants their pet to be lonely.

About: I've been taking care of pets since I was in high school. Cleaning litter, walking dogs, and feeding times. Doesn't even seem like a job when you get to spend time with animals!! I work full time Monday through Friday but I am able to drop by for walks and visits beofe or after work! I get off of work at around 3 pm so that provides alot of time for your fur babies. I am unfortunately unable to house/board pets because of family members with allergies. This is not a service that I am able to offer at this time.

About: I currently have four of my own dogs ranging from 15 weeks-13 years old! I have watched family friends dogs in the past to feed, take them outside, and one dog was a diabetic dog that I needed to give him medicine for. I am off work during the summer! There are a few weekends I am out of town, but if I am around I would be more than happy to help! I currently have four dogs at my house! My little puppy loves to play and will play with anyone! I do have a few older dogs that will keep to themselves.

Jessica G.
“Jessica and I had lived together for about 3 months, when I just got my first dog. She was a great support and resource in my ability to best care for my new puppy. To this day my dog, Maggie, gets very happy and excited to see her! Jessica is an elementary school teacher, and I am honored to have seen her treat my dog with as much respect and compassion as she does her students. I highly recommend her care to anyone of my friends.”
