About: I have experience with dogs, cats, birds, and rabbits! I’ve worked for 5 years in a clinic supporting a veterinary team providing treatment and wellness to all types of animals. In 5 years I learned how to read an animal’s body language and how to engage with all kinds of temperaments. I have previously worked in a kennel where I maintained the health and wellbeing of boarding animals with scheduled feeding, medication, and exercise. I’ve worked with non profits like the Humane Society working in a high volume setting providing medical care to numerous dogs and cats while advocating for animal welfare and wellness. I’m available for walks and house visits. I’m also available to provide daily feedings in the early mornings or the evenings 7 days a week if needed. I’m always aware of my surroundings especially when working with animals in an unknown environment. I ensure your fur babies, no matter how good of an escape artist they are, are safe and secured at all times with me.

“Alley was with our Abby at our home for two weeks while we were on vacation. During that time we had some very strong storms which our pup doesn’t do well with. Alley was able to manage Abby‘s anxiety and was very communicative with us throughout the entire two weeks. We are very happy with the care Alley provided for Abby. In addition, Alley took care of our mail my plants and our home Alley went above and beyond to ensure our homecoming was quite pleasant to completely clean home, she even washed the bedding in the room she stayed in. Thank you Alley for your time and efforts on our behalf. We will surely call on you again!”


“We can't say enough good things about Chelsey. She was absolutely wonderful with our fur baby, Gertie. It was clear from the moment we met that Gertie was comfortable and happy with her, and when we returned, it was obvious Gertie had a blast! Not only did Chelsey take incredible care of Gertie while we were out of the country, but she also left our home spotless. We truly had peace of mind knowing both our beloved pet and our house were in such capable hands. We highly recommend Chelsey and will definitely be booking her again!”


“Kit stayed at our house for 3 nights to watch out two dogs and one cat and we couldn’t be happier with his services. We did a brief meet-and-greet a few days before and I felt very comfortable because Kit has a really kind way about him, which the dogs and cat immediately responded positively to. I knew they would be in great hands! Over the days leading up to and during the pet sitting, Kit was communicative, proactive, reliable, responsive, responsible, and mature. I got lots of great pictures to know they were happy. Kit has a lot of experience taking care of dogs and cats and was comfortable taking on all tasks of feeding, walking, etc., and kept their routine on track. He asked good questions when he was unsure about anything and even dealt calmly with a temporary power outage situation. Kit always had in mind the best interest of our animals and the house and we felt very assured in his capable hands. As a bonus, Kit was very prompt, tidy, and took great care of the house. He even took out the garbage, which was above and beyond and much appreciated! We will definitely reach out to Kit for future pet sitting needs.”


“Margaret was a lifesaver for us. We had a dog that needed extra+ TLC while we were away for several days and she really went above and beyond. She sent pictures and updates regularly and left detailed progress notes on how things went, what worked and challenges encountered. We're both impressed and thankful.”



“Angelica was great! She was very easy to book with and my cats warned right up to her. She sent great photos and videos of them while we were away and was very communicative about when she’d be there to care for them. We can’t wait to book with her again for our next trip!”


“I'm so grateful to have found Bethany! I booked her for 5 nights with walks at my house and she took amazing care of my huge Newfoundland, Ted. He actually had an injury and the care and attention she showed him while I was gone completely warmed my heart. She treated him like he was her own and went overboard to make sure he was walked, fed, snacked, and loved constantly. Bethany also took great care of my home! She was in constant communication with me which really helped my anxiety with leaving him! (First time) Ted absolutelyyyy loved her too. So happy to have found her on here and highly recommend her.”



“Morgan was amazing. She was constantly sending updates and pictures of Rigs and I never had to worry for a single second. And my house was cleaner than I left it when I got home. I will definitely be using Morgan again!!!”


About: I’ve had animals as long as I can remember, I’ve puppy trained, potty trained and helped others grow a bigger bond with their furry friends. 10 years of experience I currently work remote, my wife is a stay at home mom who caters to our dog already. We would love to give your best friend the best care they deserve I have 3 dog parks in my development as well as 2 tubs of dog toys inside our home, and plenty of room for long walks around our neighborhood I am currently working remote, so I will always be home to cater and love on your fur baby. I try to take walks every 2 hours to stretch my legs and to grab fresh air. I have a fenced home and a beautiful pup to keep yours entertained. However, should you not want them to meet i also have 2 floors, and can keep them separated so i stay with our guest while my wife is with ours.

“Nicole was a fantastic find. We rescued Ellie Mae 3 weeks ago, but had a planned family vacation and no one to leave her with. We decided it would be best for Ellie Mae to leave her in the home she was becoming accustomed to and have someone stay here. We had a meet and greet with Nicole and were immediately impressed with her. She sent texts with pictures and stayed in touch the entire time we were gone. Just a few of the things she did that we didn’t ask for or expect was clean the house, run the dishwasher, wash towels and water the plants. We could not be more pleased with her and highly recommend Nicole.”


About: I have experience training and caring for dogs and cats. I Specialize in dogs with hearing issues/ deafness. Both of my dogs are graduates of multiple behavioral and obedience classes resulting in our therapy certifications. We visit a multitude of schools, hospitals and other wellness centers. All volunteer work done by my companions and myself is strictly a passion and non profit. I was inspired by a visitation to my grandfather by a golden retriever, when my grandfather was in the hospital for open heart surgery. Seeing my grandfathers reaction to a dog visitation while he was in the hospital was a monumental moment for me that further inspired my passion and drive to work with dogs. I currently work early mornings for a government agency as an officer which gives me a lot of available free time at off times of the day and week. Making me readily available to care for your pets . A fenced yard is a must. My dogs are trained and raised to be curious and outgoing, thus a fence is needed. Although my dogs don’t need a leash, I find it’s necessary to generally have a leash attached. I allow my dogs to be curious, and put there noses where many wouldn’t generally allow. It’s important to always cover your stove switches/ burners with dog safety devices!. But ultimately I strongly believe in allowing your dogs and pets to be curious and open to learning. Dogs and cats alike are much smarter then most realize, and I believe this is there first time living as well.. and deserve the best experiences life has to offer!

About: Growing up with dogs myself, I’ve always been a dog lover of all types. Now the proud father of two pups of my own, Tarzan and Violet. I work for myself from home, therefore my schedule is pretty open. I also have occasional weekend availability to walk or check in on your furry little friends. Being a dad to two puppers myself, I walk my dogs 4 times a day. I can definitely check up on, or walk your dog at least once or twice a day.

About: I have volunteered at an animal shelter for 8 months, taking care of cats, dogs, bunnies, and anything that came through those doors. I have dealt with waste, scratches (thankfully not bites). I love to get outside and move and pets are a great way to do that, however, I don’t have any of my own right now so I’m excited at the chance to walk and interact with others! I work 7am-3:30pm Saturday - Wednesday. Therefore I am free in the early afternoons and on Thursday and Friday. I love to get exercise so I will walk as long or as little as your fur baby needs. I am good at following instructions. I can not have pets where I am so I can only do at home care. With that being said, I will ensure to follow any/ everything your fur baby needs.

About: Hello there! I’ve been a caretaker of animals big and small—furry, feathered, scaly, and everything in between—for as long as I can remember. Whether it's a playful pup or a senior kitty, I approach every pet with compassion, patience, and respect for their unique personality. I have extensive experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments. My late Samoyed, Mackenzie, was my pride and joy—I raised her from puppyhood and later cared for her through diabetes, administering insulin and giving her the support she needed to thrive. These days, the current love of my life is Tucker, a Poodle/Bichon mix with a heart of gold. I’ve trained him to be a model canine citizen—he’s friendly with other dogs, gentle with kids, and so well-behaved that neighbors stop just to say hello! I know every pet is different, and I’m happy to tailor my care to what your animal loves most—whether that’s belly rubs and cuddles, long adventurous walks, a vigorous game of fetch, or simply hanging out together in the backyard. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. Let’s chat about how I can help care for your beloved companion! I recently moved to the area and am not currently working full-time, so I am available to provide 24 hour care for your pets with occasional brief periods out of the house. My home is a puppy paradise - there are dog beds scattered throughout the house along with several baskets filled to the brim with stuffed toys and balls, so your precious pup can lounge or play as much as they want. I allow dogs on the couch and they are always welcome in bed, but if your dog prefers a crate to feel safe, you can either bring your own or I can provide a large crate that they can use during their time at my home. My backyard is not fully fenced so I would not allow them outside off-leash, but there are two amazing parks nearby that are perfect for walks and a good sniff or two. If you are comfortable with it, I would also be happy to bring your dog to the Wolf Hill Off-Leash Dog Park for socialization.

“Toni was great! We received lots of picture and video updates and we were very happy with the communication. Our pups took to her from the first meet and greet. Toni is our go to sitter for when we need our dogs watched at our home for a weekend.”


About: I am a retired elementary school principal and a life-long dog owner. Spending my days and nights in the company of dogs is a labor of love. I know how stressful it is to leave one's dog in the care of others, and I strive to provide my guests with the level of care and attention that I hope my dogs would be provided in my absence. My home is 100% dog friendly. Dogs are welcome on the furniture and have dog-door unlimited access to a fenced in back yard and deck area. I am pleased to host dogs Up to 40 lbs.. This requirement may be waived for exceptionlly gentle larger dogs. Guest dogs must get along well with other dogs. I have a chihuahua and cannot host aggressive dogs. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

TLDR: Tracy is salt of the earth and restored some of my faith in humanity and the level of care someone can provide to a complete stranger and their two dogs and cat. Tracy was incredible every single step of the way, you should book her and put all your worries to bed, you are in the best of hands possible. We are new to the Middletown neighborhood and needed help with someone to watch our two dogs basset hound Homer, and mutt Katy.. as well as our cat Coconut for 5 days and nights while we were away on vacation. We were very anxious as normally my parents watch our pets but due to unfortunate medical circumstances they can no longer provide support. Tracy saved the day, met our pups and cat and we knew immediately we met the right person for this job. This was a special trip as I was planning to propose to my girlfriend, and last worry I wanted on anyone’s mind was the pets. I did not worry, I just praised how awesome Tracy was throughout the whole experience. Thank you so much Tracy! Much love Ben, Monica, Homer, Katy and Coconut

Matt was excellent. He took great care of my two big dogs. He was so responsive and sent us pictures throughout the time he was pet sitting. My dogs loved him and it gave us so much comfort that they were safe at home in their own environment. I would recommend Matt to anyone who needs someone caring and responsible.

Robin did an excellent job watching our two small dogs in our home. She treated them with great care and love. Our dogs felt comfortable with her right from the start. Robin is trustworthy and we felt confident leaving our dogs with her. Robin stayed in contact with us through photos and texts. Would highly recommend Robin and rebook with her.
