“Brianna could not have been better with sitting for Alley. I was completely convinced that she would hide from Brianna as she does with everybody, but Brianna was able to get her to come out and play and it really gave me tons of peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend her!”
“Stephanie was absolutely amazing. Not only did she bring toys and treats for our fur babies, but she noticed one was sick right away. She helped get her to the vet and took care of her in her major time of need. I could not recommend her more!”
“Vincent took care of Coco very well, he is very communicative and proactively set up a meet and greet, which was really helpful. He was friendly with her and played with her and also sent me a ton of pics. I would definitely recommend him and rebook him in future. Thank you!”
About: I have over 5 years of experience and I have found that I absolutely love working with dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities! My hands-on experience ranges from tiny, spunky Miniature Pinschers all the way up to high-energy Belgian Malinois. I know every dog is unique, so I tailor my care to match your pup's exact energy and daily routine! Specialized Care I have specific experience with puppies, senior, and high energy pups if you need any form of specialized care! -Puppies: Practicing basic training, enforcing commands, and keeping routines consistent. -Seniors: Gentle, attentive care, mobility support, and oral medication administration. -High Energy Breeds: Structured exercise, play, and mental enrichment to keep working breeds happy (and tired haha). I’d love to chat about your pups specific routine and answer any questions you may have! Pet care fits easily into my routine because I work less than 5 hours a day Monday through Wednesday, which allows me to be home with pets or check on them frequently throughout the day. My schedule is flexible, and I am available all days of the week for pet sitting, drop-in visits, walks, and overnight stays. I enjoy spending time with animals and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and care while their owners are away. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a large fenced yard where dogs can safely run, play, and get plenty of exercise. I am experienced with crate-trained dogs and can use crates when needed. I also have experience administering medications and following special care instructions. I have friendly, well-socialized dogs that enjoy playing with others, but I can easily keep pets separated if an owner prefers. I treat every pet like my own and work hard to make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while in my care.
About: Hello! I grew up surrounded by pets and have two of my own, Izzy and Lola. My home is calm and pet-friendly. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I can give your fur babies plenty of attention throughout the day. I’d love to make sure they feel safe, loved, and are happy while you’re away! I work from home, so my days are completely up to me. In the mornings, I start the day by feeding my babies and taking them out for a walk/to play. Throughout the day, I can easily provide attention, breaks, and play sessions to keep them stimulated. I provide pet care in both my home and my client’s home, depending on the service requested. Since I work from home, I am able to give pets plenty of attention and supervision throughout the day. In my home: I live in a house in a safe and walkable neighborhood with lots of greenery and nearby dog parks. I maintain a clean, comfortable environment with cozy spaces for our pets to relax.
About: I have grown up caring for animals and have years of hands on experience with dogs, horses, pigs, and other animals. I understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, and I always make their safety and comfort my priority. I’m responsible, dependable, and comfortable with feeding, exercise, cleaning, giving attention, and following specific care instructions. I have extensive experience caring for animals on a daily basis through showing and raising livestock and horses. I would treat your pets like they are my own and keep you updated while you are away. I’m a senior in high school, working part time so my schedule is fairly flexible outside of school hours. I’m available for pet sitting, drop-ins, and walks after school and on weekends. I can work with you to find a schedule that fits your pet’s needs and your routine. take pet safety and comfort very seriously. I have plenty of hands-on experience caring for animals and understand how important it is to follow each pet’s routine and specific instructions.

“Isabel did a great job of checking in on our two cats! She followed instructions perfectly and gave them attention. She was also attentive enough to let us know that one of our girls was missing us. I felt great leaving them in her hands.”
About: I’m a 14 year paramedic, wife, mom, auntie and grandma. I am the most ethical person you will meet who will love your pets like you do. I am great at picking up on pets energy and moods which will direct my interaction with them. I act based on their comfort level. I work prn and set my schedule a month or two ahead so I can make my schedule around my rover schedule. I am comfortable giving medications and had a brittle diabetic kitty. She got insulin twice a day, blood sugar checks frequently and eventually I placed an implantable glucose monitor on her. I’m not afraid of medically fragile animals and would be honored (as I am in my career) to give them the best care I can. Don’t let my lack of professional pet sitting experience scare you. Give me a try. I think you will be pleased. #serialsnootbooper I work prn and have a lot of days off that I have available and decided that I need more animals in my life. I have my own animals as well but have my husband available to take care of them while I’m with other animals. I have a large fenced back yard and they will have freedom in every room in my home. I give them fresh water every time I feed them and make sure their bowls are clean. I have a doodle who’s most favorite delicacy is socks, so my house is very much dog proofed for those who enjoy eating things they shouldn’t. Speaking of my doodle, Waffles and my cat, Gomez, they are super chill with other animals. They are around my 3 granddogs (my daughter has 2 and my son has 1) and nobody has ever bitten anybody or shown any signs of aggression. My doodle also travels with me and is out and about around people frequently.

About: I’ve had all types of pets since I was a baby. I’ve had guinea pigs, birds, hamsters, cats, and dogs. I am an animal lover through and through. I have a pretty open schedule so I will always be able to make the time. If not then I will make sure to have that conversation with whoever I’m caring for. Whatever you ask I will do. I know all families situations are different. If they need to be crated I will. If they need to be let out I will. Just tell me what you need.
“Anika has dropped in for my dogs three times. She was professional, great at communicating and handled my intense Scottish terriers well. I’ve rebooked her for future visits. Highly recommend.”
About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life. All ages and sizes, but I am especially good with older dogs, as I have one. I am currently still in school so weekends are preferred, or any time after 4:45. But I still take care of my four pets daily. I care for my pets with many walks and lots of backyard time, and plenty of brushing all that loosened fur off, and bath times.

“Jo did a great job with my very demanding wobbly cat. She frequently has accidents peeing over the side of the litter box while attempting to hold herself steady. She will not use the litter box at all unless it has just been scooped. I have trouble myself getting rid of the smells from these accidents, but I came home to a very clean litter box and no accident stains or smells. She was also immediately friendly and not skiddish like she has been when left in the past.”
“Blake was very good and patient with my cat (who was wary at first, but opened up after a few visits). She was also very responsive to messages outside of her booked to visit visiting hours, and I enjoyed the photos and videos she would send to show that my cat was playing and eating.”
About: Ive been caring for dogs for 6+ years and genuinely love building trust with every pet I meet! I’m very patient and attentive, and I adapt to each dog’s personality. Whether they’re playful, shy, or need extra comfort. I’ve helped with everything fro daily walks to feeding, bathing, and just being a calm, safe presence. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always make sure they feel secure, loved, and understood. Pet sitting fits naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize visits, walks, and check ins throughout the day. I plan my time carefully so each pet gets consistent attention, care, and companionship.

When I’m in a client’s home, I’m very respectful of their space and keep everything clean while sticking closely to the pet’s normal routine to reduce stress. In my own home, I provide a safe, calm, and pet friendly environment where they’ll get lots of attention, playtime, and supervision.
“Mckenzie is the perfect person to watch your loved one! Everything she did was perfect. She even made my my old dog come out and be all peppy and happy and loving. Not that he hasn’t already but she really made him come out of his shell. I highly recommend her. We loved her.”

Breanna was amazing! My kitties absolutely loved her and she took such great care of them! She was super communicative and even brought in our cat food when it got delivered even though I didn’t ask her to! She was super nice and helpful and I will definitely be booking with her again.

Laila was amazing! She guaranteed us a stress free trip, handling issues as they arose to ensure our babies were cared for as well as if we were there. We loved the daily pictures and updates. I will 100% request her for all our future trips! Thank you Laila!!
Jaleeya was an absolute life saver! This is my first time leaving my kitties home without me and she made me feel so comfortable. She gave excellent care and updates at every visit.

If I ever choose to leave again and need a helping hand I definitely am contacting Jaleeya!

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
