Caleigh was wonderful to work with. She was punctual, attentive to my dog, and communicated important details. I would definitely recommend her to others and will be using her again.

Angela is amazing!! She has been doing drop in visits for our two dogs while our work schedules are more busy than usual and it has given us such a piece of mind. She even came out to our house prior to the visits starting to meet our dogs which made us feel even more comfortable!!

I needed a last minute drop in visit with my dog and asked Nancy and within two hours my request was completed! Getting pics of my sweet boy was icing on the cake. Breathed a huge sigh of relief! She’s the best!

About: We’ve always had dogs until recently. Our last one went to the rainbow bridge last June. We’re taking a break from dog ownership, but would love to still have dogs around! We have over 30 years of experience with all kinds of dogs and other pets. I work 4 days per week and my husband is a retired police officer and has a very flexible part time schedule. My husband watches our video cameras frequently when not home to check on the house, pups (ours until recently). We require a free meet & greet visit for all first time clients. Whether the requested service be boarding, walks, or drop ins. We feel this requirement is essential for trust, safety, and expectations. We want your dog to feel comfortable with us first be for caring for them. We have a fenced in yard and a dog door. Dog door will be blocked off at owners request. We only take one clients dogs at a time so we can devote all of our attention to them. Your dogs will be treated as our family pet while we are watching them and they will never be kept in a cage or crate unless the client requests it. Because your dog(s) will have the run of our house, we only take dogs that are completely house broken. This means if your dog only occasionally pees in the house or pees when they’re super excited, unfortunately we won’t be able to accommodate a booking. We live in the country and on rare occasions we have found a tick on our dogs. This has happened maybe four times in the past 20 years. If we’re going to be walking your dogs on our property, they should be on a flea and tick preventative. We have security cameras in the house and outside. My husband is retired law enforcement and I am a registered nurse.

About: I have dedicated the majority of my adult life to caring for animals of all kinds, including dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, chinchillas, and parakeets. My professional background includes many years in boarding and daycare facilities, where I also gained grooming experience as a dog bather and advanced into a supervisory role overseeing boarding, grooming, and daycare operations. In addition, I have three years of experience as a veterinary assistant in a low-cost spay and neuter clinic, along with further veterinary hospital work. I have fostered dogs for 6–7 years, providing care to pets with diverse needs, and I hold a Veterinary Assistant Certification from Lakeland Community College. With both personal passion and professional expertise, I offer compassionate, knowledgeable, and reliable animal care. I currently have a flexible schedule and am happy to provide pet care as long as the timing works well. As a single parent with limited childcare support, my young son usually comes along with me. He has grown up around animals and enjoys being part of the care experience, and I always ensure that the focus remains on providing safe, attentive, and loving care for your pets. Pet care is something I truly value, and I look forward to helping families with their pets whenever possible. I treat every pet as if they were part of my own family, giving them the same love, attention, and respect I give my own animals. I also take great care to follow each client’s instructions closely, ensuring every pet receives the personalized care they need and deserve.

About: I'm an experienced pet sitter who loves spending time with dogs. I'm patient, reliable and, I treat your pet like family. I have owned and worked with dogs all my life (I'm 65) and feel this is a natural fit as I near and enter into retirement. I'm currently a full time pastor of a Lutheran congregation. The congregation is used to me bringing dogs with me to work. However, depending on the pet and the request of the owners, I can leave pets at my (or your) home and check in on them regularly. I am with them overnight. I do not have a fenced yard in my Condo so will walk them on a leash. I have my own fur baby, Annie, who absolutely loves other doggy companions. I work with each pet and client individually to ensure that we are meeting your needs. Crate trained animals are welcome but I've sat for many who roam free in the condo.

About: I grew up taking care and watching pets. I have mainly worked with dogs and cats. I have been relied on to walk and feed pets for friends and family since I was young. I’m currently working part time evenings and weekends. I have availability during the day throughout the week to come walk your furry friends, let them out to go potty, or just play with them in the house so their day isn’t as lonely. I have a very large fenced in yard that has never had a issue accommodating my 90lbs Flat Coat. I am used to dealing with all different size dogs and can be sure keep them safe while I’m in your home or out on a walk.

About: I have six years of pet and house sitting experience. Between dogs, cats, guinea pigs, rabbits and even house pigs! I'm patient, reliable, and attentive to your pets needs. Currently I work full time, however with my extremely flexible schedule, I’m able to easily fit pet care into my schedule. I can make time for drop-ins, and playtime throughout the day. I am committed to providing reliable care that works around both my schedule and your pet! While I do not currently offer pet care in my own home, I’m more than happy to provide overnights, drop-in visits, walks and playtime at your home. I have encountered many different environments and situations in my experience of pet sitting. I can follow routines- whether it be overnights, potty breaks, walks, or playtime! With that said communication is key to how I provide dependable and reliable care. I will respect your space and ensure your pet feels safe and cared for while you're away!

About: I am a Registered Veterinary Technician. I have 2 dogs of my own as well as 3 cats and 6 horses. I am able to give medications if that is something your pets needs. I can feed, water, walk, clean litter boxes and give plenty of playtime and attention while you are gone for the day or out of town. I can care for your senior pets, your new kittens/puppies or those that fall in between. I will follow the instructions you have in place and will work to help keep your pet happy and safe while you're away. I do have experience working with the aggressive and unfriendly as well as the overly friendly pets. If you have pets outside of the "norm" like reptiles and livestock I can also help with them. I'm currently working part-time so I have pretty open availability. I work with pets as part of my job so I know how to handle a wide variety. At this time I currently don't offer in my house care. I have 2 dogs, one of which who is reactive to smaller dogs so this isn't something I will likely offer.

About: I’ve worked at a Vet Clinic and dedicated my time to helping animals in my career as well as for my friends and family’s animals. I have an extra special place in my heart for our sweet seniors as well. I have lots of experience watching multiple animals in one household. I am currently a flight instructor building time to become a pilot. I would work pet/house sitting into my schedule as I am able to during the week when I am not flying! As of now, my house sitting services with animal care included will not include an overnight stay, but I will stay as late as possible and come back early in the morning. Please let me know when booking the house sitting service that this policy aligns with your plans. Pet parents know their pet best. Any request or routine you have for your pet I will follow to a T as I know pets thrive in a routine and when their parents aren’t around I will strive to keep that routine for them to make them as comfortable as possible.

Olivia did an amazing job with our skittish cat. It takes a lot for him to warm up to people, and he clearly liked her — which says a lot. She was responsive, followed all directions, sent updates and pictures, and was very friendly. We felt completely comfortable while we were away and would absolutely use her again. Highly recommend!

About: I've grown up around cats and dogs my entire life and currently care for two cats of my own. I'm comfortable with feeding, litter care, playtime, walks, and following routines. I focus on keeping pets comfortable and stress free. During the week, I work and attend university, but I'm available for in-home boarding and for weekend travel or overnight pet sitting, so I can be fully present and attentive to each pet's needs. I have a large yard for supervised play and take dogs on leashed walks along local trails. I carefully follow feeding schedules, routines, and any special instructions.
