“Maura was amazing with our dogs! She was very prompt in answering messages and went above and beyond to make sure our 3 dogs were taken care of while we went on a mini vacation. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her again!”


“Tatum is a wonderful house & cat sitter! She’s a great communicator, and was really good about providing me regular updates and picture of my cat, Davinci, while I was traveling for work. She took really good care of my house and was very clean and respectful. Highly recommend!”


“Ashley was amazing! She was super communicative before, during, and after our trip. We received lots of photos from her of both of our pets. The day before we left, we had to take our dog to the ER for a repeat issues she's had. Ashley was great about administering all of the meds our dog needed in the following days and kept me informed about how our dog was doing. Would absolutely book with her again and 10/10 would recommend to anyone in need of a pet/house-sitter :)”



“Amber was so great with Finn again. She sent pics and videos of Finn so I knew what they had done that day and it is evident from the pictures that he adores her! She was also flexible with my weird schedule which was much appreciated, as flight changes can be super stressful. We highly recommend Amber to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”


“I give Ben an A++. I couldn’t have asked for a better new buddy and caregiver for my fur babies. Ben’s calm and welcoming presence is exactly what my dog needed while I was away. I feel so much better knowing they are just as cared for and loved as when I am home.”


About: • Adult and senior dogs or cats • Special needs (blind, diabetic, trouble walking)) • Quirky behaviors • Puppies that need lots of potty breaks are no problem I am 54, married, retired, and am available 24/7. When not pet-sitting, I care for three dogs at home, plus two sheep and two goats. I will keep your home in great condition, cleaning up after your pets and leaving no trace that I was there. I bring my own snacks!

About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I could remember growing up. And now more recently I’ve started watching family and friends animals as well while they’re gone on short trips I love visiting them and playing with them when I get there! Im currently working part time so I plenty of time to make sure your fur babies are taken care of. During the week is more better for me but I am flexible to do weekends sometimes as well! Since I have a full house I would prefer to come to you. I love to go for walks and play outside with my dogs or when I’m watching someone else’s and I make sure I keep them on the same feeding schedule.

About: With over 8 years of hands-on experience in veterinary medicine, I bring a deep understanding of animal health, behavior, and emergency care to every pet I look after. My background includes working alongside veterinarians in clinical settings, assisting with diagnostics, surgical procedures, and administering medications. Whether it’s managing pets with chronic conditions, administering medications, or simply offering a calming presence, my veterinary experience ensures your pet is in capable, compassionate hands. I prioritize safety, well-being, and individualized care for every animal, treating each one as if they were my own. I am currently working full time at a veterinary clinic. While I am not available during the day, I will be available after 6:00 pm and in the mornings before I leave for work. I am also available almost all day during the weekends to be around for your pets. When caring for both my own pets and a client’s pet, I treat each animal with the same level of love and attention. I make sure they are fed on time and have access to fresh water throughout the day. I take dogs for regular walks to keep them active and happy, and for cats or other pets, I ensure litter boxes are kept clean and fresh. I love interacting with animals—whether it’s playing, cuddling, or just keeping them company. I want them to be comfortable and feel cared for! I also give treats (with permission) as a way to reward good behavior and build trust. Every pet in my care is treated like family.

“Sydnee was absolutely spectacular watching our 3 dogs! She was very attentive to all of them and made sure they got all the outside time and lovings they wanted! She sent updates, pictures and videos, which I absolutely loved. I highly recommend her and will definitely have her watch my dogs again.”


“Aliece did an amazing job with my two dogs (55lb and 75lb) for our week vacation. She was quick to respond from our initial contact and forward.

She sent us multiple daily updates and lots of photos to ensure we knew our babies were comfortable. She administered daily medications multiple times per day. She was flexible with work getting done around the house during her stay. She graciously helped troubleshoot when our AC went our briefly. She is super sweet and my dogs fell in love we her immediately. I would highly recommend her services!”


About: The safety and well being of your pet is my number one concern! Our pets are family and it takes a lot of trust to leave your fur baby with someone new!

I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, and have experience with caring for, owning, and fostering cats and kittens Unfortunately due to my living situation I’m unable to have pets of my own right now, so I’ve got a bunch of extra love to give to yours. I’m currently taking online college courses, so I have ample time to help provide the attention and affection that your pet deserves. This leaves my schedule very open, and I am able to be very flexible with providing pet care. I have full and complete respect for clients property and homes.
