“Amazing service!!! I was concerned about my dog being uncomfortable in an unknown place for the first time. Within 30 minutes I had a video showing Duke having a blast. Throughout the evening I received several pics nicer than I’ve ever taken of him. I totally recommend!”

“Joy took wonderful care of our dog. She sent pictures and was very communicative. Our dog seemed very happy while in her home. I would definitely recommend Joy to others, and we plan on using her again.”

“Gloria is everything you want in a pet sitter! She kept us updated the entire time and took care of our dog as if he was her own. It’s evident how much she cares for animals (her “kids” 🤍). Definitely recommend!”

About: Hello! I am a life long pet lover and healthcare provider. I live on a farm with lots of fresh air and space to run. I can’t wait to meet your pup! Feel free to message me with any questions or to schedule a meet-and-greet. I work Tuesday -Friday. Also available for potty breaks during the day. I am mostly available on the weekends but could easily make a day during the week work as well. Our yard is not fenced in but we live on a dead end road. Dogs will be leashed while outside and supervised. Pets allowed in house and living room.
“Jenna was awesome with my dog. Aspyn is timid and needs a calmer environment, which is just what she got with Jenna. I got several text updates with photos so I felt close to our dog even when far away. Highly recommend Jenna!”

“Lynn is the absolute best! Our pup has never stayed with anyone but family. Lynn took great care of Ruby and sent photos throughout the weekend. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Lynn was the perfect fit for our sweet Ruby girl!”

“Leaving my Ashburg and Dingo in the care of Beth and her family was the best decision I’ve made for my pups. She was nice, caring, and always sent updates on how they were doing while I was working which meant a lot. I would highly recommend Beth as a sitter.”

“We drove up to Minnesota from South Carolina to visit family. It iwas hard to leave them but it gave us the opportunity to give 100% of our time to spoil our grandkids. Our fur babies were well taken care of. They were very happy with Lacey & Troy. We will definitely use them again when we visit family in Minnesota. Thank you so much!”

“Shawna was a very compassionate pet owner, and sitter. She met all of my dogs needs , and my own. I can tell she went above any beyond to make my fur baby feel at home. I will definitely be a repeat customer”

About: I’ve had my dog Zelda for eight years now. Still, each day is just as fun as the last. Her personality is never a challenge, and I love to play with her and take her on walks. My extended family also has many dogs I grew up with, so I am experienced with different types of dogs. I typically have free time in the mornings, as well as in the afternoon. Very willing to be flexible. My weekends are almost always open during the day; and that would be the best time for me to do longer days of care rather than just a couple hours of watching your pet. When I am not at school I have more flexibility during weekdays. In my home, my yard is not fenced, so Zelda is usually on a handheld leash (for quick outside time) or on a long leash (usually tied to the ground) when she wants to do her own thing. I always am supervising her outside to ensure her safety. I am very willing to adapt to different ways of having your dog be outside, as long as I am informed of them beforehand. When inside I always keep a close eye on my dog, as she tends to get into trouble here and there. I always make sure I have toys on hand, as well as treats. Whenever I am taking care of a dog I always try to make sure they are as comfortable as possible.
“Maisie was such an amazing help to us! She was very attentive to our newly rescued dachshund and was extremely communicative with us during the sit. She really cares about the pets she sits and we had a great experience with her helping sit Sophie while we were away for Thanksgiving. We will absolutely be booking her again, thank you! 🩵”


About: Hi! I’m Aleah, a lifelong animal lover with years of hands on experience caring for pets. I grew up in a home with 6 dogs and 3 cats, so caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life. From energetic puppies to senior pets who need a little extra patience and attention, I’m comfortable with animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I currently have a dog of my own, which has given me even more experience with daily care, exercise, training reinforcement, and understanding each dog’s unique needs. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your furry family member, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having a calm and reliable companion while you’re away, I’m happy to provide personalized care to keep them comfortable, safe, and loved. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Because I currently have open availability, I’m able to be flexible with scheduling and can accommodate last minute bookings, extended stays, and pets who need more frequent attention throughout the day. Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy, so I have the time and dedication to focus on providing reliable, attentive care for every animal I watch. I care for every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication administration (if needed), and plenty of attention and affection. In a client’s home, I respect both the pet’s routine and the owner’s space, providing regular updates, photos, and communication for peace of mind. I make sure pets get the exercise, mental stimulation, and companionship they need while maintaining a clean and secure environment. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a calm, safe, and pet friendly environment where they can relax and feel at home. I pay close attention to each animal’s personality and needs, whether they prefer active playtime, long walks, cuddles on the couch, or a quiet place to rest. My goal is always to ensure pets are happy, healthy, and stress-free while their families are away.
About: I have taken care of pets (mainly dogs) for many years. I have expertise in walking, training, and making sure your pet gets the best care on a regular basis. I am currently in college and have classes M,W,F. I work at a daycare so my hours are different everyday but I still have availability to care for your pets! My weekends are always open. I am looking forward to help out! I care for pets how their owners care for them. I provide them with a caring personality and follow their routine and owner's regulations. That could be going on walks, feeding them, and playtime. Most importantly I want them to be comfortable with me so do that I think it is important to do things with them that they are familiar with.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over 7 years through friends, neighbors, and family. I genuinely love spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m dependable, patient, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs, whether that means walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or just extra cuddles and attention. I also understand how important communication is, so I always send updates and photos to help owners feel at ease. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, playtime, and care throughout the day. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, overnight stays, and pet sitting during weekdays and weekends. I always try to accommodate each pet owner’s routine to help pets feel comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I make sure pets stick to their normal routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions. I provide a calm, clean, and loving environment and pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and needs. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is being well cared for while you’re away.

About: I have a cat who I’ve had for 4 years. I have always had a passion for animals and try my best to be in tune to their languages. I currently own one cat, which requires pilling. If you have a pet that needs a gentle and loving sitter, or even someone to play and keep them stimulated, then I would love to take care of them! I am currently working full-time as a social worker and I am available from 6pm to 10pm Monday through Friday, and 24/7 availability on weekends. I try to let the kitties/puppies take the lead within reason. I like to try to engage them and play, but I will be gentle and calming if they are showing signs of stress. I’m very observant with body language and try to accommodate for them while still maintaining structure.
