“We are very happy that Lucky has a chance to socialize with other dogs and people outside family. You are fantastic! I just couldn't see a place to message you to ask questions, so let me write here. This weekend, it turned out it'd be a day trip. So we'd like to swich from overnight boarding to a day-sitting. We don' t know the exact time of drop-off and pick-up, are you still available?”

“5/5 🤩 Nansy is awesome! Very nice person and accommodating, helping us out in a pinch when our usual sitters fell thru. Our senior pupper needs special care, so it was a true relief when we met with Nansy and she asked a lot of questions, going the extra mile to make sure our pup had a comfortable stay. Would definitely book her again if needed. Thank you Nansy!!”

“Aaron was very communicative and accommodating and my dogs were very well looked after and taken care of. He sent photos to share how comfortable they were and he will definitely be my first choice for any future dog sitting needs. I highly recommend him.”

About: Hi, our names are Amanda and Avery, a mother/daughter team! We have pets and love them dearly! We know what it’s like to struggle to find someone to watch our pets, who will love them as much as we do. We want to be for other people, what we’ve been looking for! ♥️ We are willing to drop by your home, feed, water, and play with your pet(s). We look forward to serving you soon! We home educate so we will have plenty of flexibility to play with you pups on days, nights, and weekends. Thank you for you time and consideration. We have two dogs and a bunny, and we know every animal requires something different. It is our joy to make sure each animal’s unique needs are met.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on experience with both young and senior pets, including those with medical needs. I’ve cared for my parents’ dog after a major surgery, which involved giving medications, monitoring recovery, and making sure he stayed calm and comfortable. I’ve also watched my aunt’s senior dog and her kittens, so I understand the different care routines, energy levels, and attention each age group needs. I’m very patient, responsible, and always make sure pets feel safe and loved in my care. I work full time from 6 a.m. to 3 p.m., which gives me plenty of availability in the afternoons, evenings, and on weekends for pet care. I’m very organized and plan my schedule around the needs of the pets I’m caring for. Whether it’s evening visits, feeding, litter box cleaning, or just spending quality time with them, I always make sure they get the attention they need. In my home, I make sure pets have a safe, calm, and clean environment where they can feel comfortable and relaxed. I follow their usual routines as closely as possible—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any medications they may need. I also make sure they have quiet spaces to rest and lots of attention and love throughout the day. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat it with the same respect I would my own. I stick closely to their normal routine to help reduce stress, keep everything tidy, and make sure the pets feel secure in their own space. I give regular updates so owners know how their pets are doing and can feel at ease while they’re away.

“Victoria was amazing with our fur babies! She sent so many picture updates, etc., & even gave them the cutest bandanas when we picked them up! Highly recommend!”

About: I've had dogs for most of my life. I've adopted from rescues and love making my pets feel safe and loved. My current dog is a senior male who's very sweet. He gets lonesome so it would be nice to have dog friends visit. I'm patient and kind. We love to go on walks and relax iny gated yard. I work full-time but I'm very close to work and come home every day during lunch to let my dog have some yard time. We go for a walk at night to get outdoors. I have a senior dog and a nice fenced backyard for them to roam around. My dog is allowed on furniture and sleeps with me.

About: I've been dog sitting on and off since my 20's. Most were co-workers and family. I walked, bathed, brushed and given medicine, both orally and topical as required. I'm currently retired and can dog sit 7 days a week with advance notice. I can also day board as early as 7am and pick up as late as 6pm. If different hours are needed I can be flexible. I have a very large home where your dog can roam freely inside. However, I don't have a fenced in yard. I do have a secure tie line attached to my home. Your dog will never be left outside by themselves as I will be there with them.

“Cortney was excellent to work with, took care of our 2 pups, sent us photos and kept my mind at ease. She made arranging drop off and pick up easy. Thank you Cortney!”

“Stephanie is absolutely wonderful with my dogs! Initially it was drop ins/walks with my black lab approximately 2 years ago, this past year I got a 12 week puppy so they started going to Stephanie’s house for daycare to meet the puppies consistent needs! If we load into the car at 5:45 am they know they are going to Stephanie’s house and get very excited! Sometimes they go for just the day, other times they go for a couple nights! They always come home exhausted from all the playing they’ve been doing! Her communication is excellent, I receive photos and feedback frequently throughout the day when they are there! I highly recommend Stephanie!”

About: I’ve cared for a variety of pets over the years, including dogs of all ages. I have hands-on experience with puppies who need structure and patience, as well as senior dogs who require extra attention, medication, and a gentle touch. Whether it’s going for long walks, playtime, or just providing comfort and companionship, I genuinely love caring for animals and making sure they feel safe and happy. What sets me apart is my attention to detail and calm, caring nature. I treat every pet like they’re my own, taking time to learn their personality. I’m reliable, communicative, and always go the extra mile to make sure both pets and their owners feel comfortable. I fit pet care into my routine during my free time, usually in the mornings and evenings during the week, and more flexible on weekends. I ensure a safe, clean, and pet-friendly environment. I build trust through gentle handling, consistent routines, and lots of affection. I follow specific care instructions and prioritize the pet’s comfort and well-being.
