“Max did an hour walk with Trey today. Completely a last minute request and he made himself available. Very much appreciated!!! Trey loved Max immediately and was a great walk for him. Would highly recommend Max.”
“Frances did a fantastic job of caring for our cats while we were on vacation. With 3 Rescues inside and 2 TNR's outside, it's not easy to find someone to take that on. Everything went great and she kept us informed with texts & pics after each visit. She made our vacation so much more enjoyable.”
“Kristy was excellent and helped out in a pinch, which I'm incredibly grateful for. She responded quickly on a Sunday, and the booking process went very smoothly. She took excellent care of Sapphire while helping him to get to his vet and back to my home, even giving me updates with a photo. She also remembered to let me know his weight when I asked, as his weight currently needs to be monitored due to his severe IBD. I will definitely book with her again :)”
About: In all my 22 years of life, I have always had a dog and for as long as I can remember, I’ve assisted in feeding bathing and walking the dogs I’ve had. I’ve always been an animal person even considered becoming a vet at one point. Whenever I met someone’s home, you can find me hanging out with their pet rather it’s a dog or cat or even a a snake! I currently have a flexible schedule, please reach out to me a week in advance, so I can fit your pup into that schedule!! I do 20 hours of volunteer work a week and babysit, I plan each weeks work days/ volunteering days about a week in advance and would love to add your precious pet into that mix! I am looking to do dog walking and dropping in! I am open to taking your dog for at leashed walk around the neighborhood or to a fenced in dog park or if you’re comfortable with it!! My dog Peggy, loves these activities. I will take your pets without Peggy. Unless you specifically let me know that it is ok if Peggy comes she gets along very well with other dogs. Whenever I take walks in the heat, I always make sure to bring water for my dog and myself, and will be sure to do so for yours!
“Heather was GREATTTT with my dog. She checked in consistently and responded quickly with no issues. I had no worries about my doggy at all I knew she was in great hands. She paid attention to her very well and updated us through the day. Book her and you’ll see!! 😊”
“Jon is a cat whisperer. A cat magnet. We were worried about leaving our two 1-1/2 year old cats for 10 days to take a family visit. There was absolutely nothing to be worried about. Even the very shy cat greeted Jon at the door every day and gave him nose kisses. Your pets deserve the care of Jon.”
“Outstanding care for two special‑needs cats, last‑minute booking, and stellar communication! Skye did a truly fantastic job watching my two cats, both of whom need extra care. One is blind, and the other is diabetic and receives twice‑daily subcutaneous injections, and Skye administered medications exactly on schedule. From the start, Skye was incredibly kind, flexible, and professional—especially given how last‑minute the booking was due to an emergency. I received regular updates, which were so reassuring. I appreciated knowing that medications were given on time, feeding routines were followed, and my cats were comfortable and safe. The initial meet-and-greet was warm and professional, which immediately put me at ease. Skye’s attention to our cats’ special needs was exactly what we were hoping for in a sitter. Thank you so much, Skye — your flexibility, compassion, and reliability are deeply appreciated. I would absolutely book again and highly recommend your care to anyone who has pets with medical or unique needs”

“Jim took great care of our kitty! Even though she is super shy and wouldn’t say hello to him, he kept us updated on how much food she was eating and her bathroom habits! Was able to have a stress free vacation knowing she was in good hands!”
“Wonderful Experience with Kristin! ~* We recently had the pleasure of having Kristin care for our two fur children (Mimi and Luci) while we were away, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience! From our initial meeting, Kristin showed genuine interest and care for our kitties~* Throughout our time away, Kristin provided daily photo updates and descriptions of how our cats were doing. This was incredibly reassuring and allowed us to enjoy our trip knowing our fur bebes were in good hands. Not only did Kristin handle the basics of feeding and litter box maintenance flawlessly, but she also took the time to play and interact with our cats, which we (and they) appreciated immensely. It was evident that she genuinely loves animals and knew how to make our kitties feel comfortable and loved. In addition to the excellent care of our cats, Kristin also took care of our home beautifully. Everything was in perfect order upon our return, which was an added bonus after a long drive home. Overall, we cannot recommend Kristin highly enough. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and obvious love for animals make her an exceptional choice for anyone in need of pet care. We will definitely be calling on her again for all our future pet sitting needs! Thank you again, Kristin! ~* Love, Jessie, Russell <3 Mimi & Luci”
About: Experience in dog grooming and boarding. Very knowledgeable when it comes to dog behaviors and temperament. Grew up with dogs my entire life. Volunteered at local animal shelters. I currently work for the judiciary system as a probation officer. I have two remote days a week and weekends off. My schedule is fairly flexible. I am a very active person. I love hiking and walking so your dog will never be bored! Safety of your pet is my number one concern.
About: I have been a life-long dog lover, having had dogs of my own until my kids left for college. These days, I enjoy helping friends and family care for their dogs combining my love for animals with years of hands-on experience. Now I offer that same reliable, compassionate care to others. I own and operate a youth sports training business, which allows me to have a flexible schedule throughout the day. This flexibility gives me the opportunity to dedicate time to another passion of mine - caring for animals. This allows me to provide reliable early morning walks, check ins, and pet care during the time most people are away or at work. I offer in-house pet care only, meaning I come to your home to walk, feed or check on your dog in the comfort of their own familiar space. I do not board or keep dogs in my home.
About: 🐾 Lifelong Animal Lover & Trusted Pet Caregiver 🐾 For me, pets aren’t “just animals” — they’re family. I grew up surrounded by cats and dogs, and caring for animals has always come naturally to me. Today, I care for my 20-year-old blind diabetic cat, which has taught me patience, compassion, and how important gentle, attentive care really is. I’m experienced with giving insulin injections by syringe and caring for senior or special-needs pets who need extra love and attention. I also spend time helping care for my brother’s Pitbull, Chance, so I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels — from couch cuddlers to energetic walking buddies! When your pet is with me, they’ll get more than basic care — they’ll get affection, attention, playtime, and someone who genuinely enjoys being around animals. I know how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone, and I’ll always treat them like one of my own. ✨ Reliable ✨ Responsive ✨ Patient & Gentle ✨ Experienced with Senior/Special-Needs Pets ✨ Walks, Playtime, Feeding & Lots of Love Included I can’t wait to meet your furry family member(s)! 🐕🐈 I work remotely and have a flexible work schedule. I can plan my day around your pet’s routine. Currently available for walking, drop in visits, and over night boarding. I also have experience giving meds including insulin injections. Although, I don’t have a fenced in yard. I have a private rooftop deck for pups that like fresh air and sun. There is a park and plenty of turf areas for play, poops and all the sniffs!!
“Our kitties loves Nicholas and it was so comforting to know that they were being well-cared for. He is such a zen person and remarkably kind. Even my shy girl made “friends” and he spent a good amount of time with them. My sick kitty got her medication and was in good condition when we got home. We were so happy seeing how much better they were compared to previous trips. Will definitely be using Nicholas again in the future!”
“Having Katie watch Winks and Wilson was one of the best decisions we made while out of town. She spent a lot of quality time playing with them each day, picked them catnip from the garden, and supurrvised (lol) them on the porch! Katie is our go to for the boys in the future! She’s the best!”
About: I've rescued all over 50 dogs, have years of pet-sitting experience and love animals of all shapes and sizes! Even skittish pets trust me perhaps because I have a calm personality. I have retired after working at Riverview Medical center for 25 years so I have lots of time to spend with your pet family! I am available most days and/or evenings. I will follow your instructions to the letter- you know what is best for your pet. I will sit with them, feed them, play with them, walk them, administer medicine and/or treats or do whatever is needed to keep them healthy and happy!
About: I'm a 20-year-old nursing student with a flexible schedule, allowing me to visit and care for pets at their homes. I am responsible and will ensure pets feel comfortable and safe in their environment, and I follow all owner instructions for feeding, walking, and medication needs (I am used to handling medication as I have 3 years of volunteer experience in a nursing home). With experience handling various pets (from pigs to cats to Great Danes), I can adapt to their unique personalities and needs, providing loving care and attention while you’re away I have a very light semester with a lot of free time. I have plenty of time for walks, drop in visits, or in home visits! You will catch me and your pup studying and hanging out:) While I care for pets in their own homes, I create a safe, comfortable, and trusting environment wherever I work. I prioritize following your routines, providing regular walks, playtime, and plenty of affection to ensure your pets are happy and at ease

Jon was fantastic with my two cats, spending even more time with them than agreed upon. Over several visits on a long weekend, he gave them excellent care and lots of play. The sociable one fell for him immediately, and even my nervous girl warmed up over a short time. He’s got great energy and a clear love of animals. Book him today!
