“Christi and Sara are wonderful! Very prompt and reliable. Was even able to give my senior cat medication. I’m grateful for finding them! I love the updates and pictures with each visit! I highly recommend them!”


“Harlie has done a phenomenal job at taking care of my cat while I was away on vacation with family! Would definitely choose her again as my first choice to watch over my cat, as well as recommend her to anyone else who needs someone to look after their pet while they are away!”


“Laurie is amazing. She took care of both my cat's. 1 cat is diabetic and requires insulin. This was a last minute trip and Laurie was able to do the drop in visits for me. She was very reliable. Did everything I asked of her and more! Due to the excessive heat, the water in my pool was getting very low and causing my pump issues. She tried filling my pool up but that would of taken too long during the drop in visit. She tried contacting me but I was unavailable at the time. She was able to get her husband and they turned off the pump. She reached my husband and he advised her to keep the pump off until we were able to return back home from since we were out of state. She took care of my cats very well, cleaned up, feed them and even took out my garbage and recycling since we live in a community that has specific days that this needs to be done. What a blessing she is! If you need a pet sitter, please don't look any further. She is your girl! Thank you so much Laurie!”


“Nelieze did so well with our 2 dogs! Our Shih tzus have anxiety around new people but Nelieze was able to calm them down easily! Followed all our instructions and was great with communication. Will definitely continue booking with her!”


About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my tailored approach to every pet’s unique personality and needs. I bring years of hands-on experience with both energetic puppies who need structure, play, and patience—and older dogs who require gentle care, medication management, and a calm, reassuring presence. Whether it’s basic training reinforcement for your growing pup or keeping your senior dog comfortable and happy, I provide dependable, compassionate care with a focus on safety and well-being. Your pet isn’t just another client—they’re family, and I treat them that way. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I attend school online, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of free time. This allows me to be fully present and attentive to your pet’s needs throughout the day—whether it’s playtime, walks, feeding, or just keeping them company. My open availability means I can easily adapt to your pet’s routine and provide consistent, reliable care. In my home, pets are cared for in a safe, clean, and welcoming environment where they’re treated like part of the family. I create a calm, pet-friendly space free of hazards, with plenty of room for play, rest, and relaxation. Whether it’s following specific feeding routines, administering medication, or giving them lots of love and attention, I prioritize their comfort and well-being. I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet in someone else’s care, so I provide regular updates and always ensure your pet feels secure, happy, and at home.

About: I had a 40 pound black lab for 14 years that I loved dearly. She loved walking to the lake everyday and swimming. For a couple of years her sister stayed with me as well. I've drove Amazon for 2 years so I'm use to every dog and use to being in different situations with dogs. Love dogs of all sizes and breeds. I've had numerous friends and family have me house sit there dogs and houses over the years. My Mom and my Dad on occasion stay with me with their 2 female dogs. I'll let you know if I have the 2 female dogs when they are staying with me. They love going to the dog park and love being around other dogs and are trained really well. They'll welcome any dog to their little pack. I have an open schedule for pet sitting or dog walking. That allows me to care for the needs of the pets I care for. My flexibility allows me take care of the customers needs and wants for their pet. I own my my own house and have no fenced area. I have no neighbors on either side of my house so I can freely play with the dogs in my backyard. I do have a big cage if needed to cage any dogs. I don't care if dogs are on my furniture. I'm also very close to a dog park if your dog enjoys dog parks.

“Re-booked with Kristi when we needed a last-minute check in for our boy and she was super communicative and able to accommodate on short notice! Always nice to know he’s in good hands with her”

About: I will take care of your dog and play with them when I come on the visits. I will also take them to the park and run with them. I own a boston terrier and a pit bull and they are my loves. I will care for your dog like they are my own. I can also take care of puppy's and will give them the attention they need. I Have always not only love dogs but every animal. I wanted to be a vet when I was little just so I could work with animals. I think dogs are the best animals because they comfort anyone who is upset or just bring joy to your life. I think dogs have a purpose to make their owners happy and will love you unconditionally. I am doing dog sitting and dog walking part time. I am available Monday through Friday. I have a main job and I work from home Monday and Friday so four day weekends are better for me to dog sit. On Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday I go into the office so I can only do two drop in visits during those days. I work on weekends as well. I would come inside the house and greet the pups. I would make sure to take them out to go potty and then give them a treat before I go.

About: I have 20+ years of experience. I started caring for other people’s pets as well as my own when I was 9 years old. I have experience in basic training, leash walking, interactive playtime, potty schedule, food amount per size, dietary restrictions and medication needs, and bathing. I am a virtual high school teacher with a flexible schedule. I spend most of my days at home, allowing me to provide your 4-legged family member with unlimited supervision, playtime/rest, and potty breaks. My work-from-home schedule is 10:00am-6:30pm. If I were to leave, it would be to the gym. However, I would do my best to plan accordingly so I do not have outside commitments when pet sitting. My goal is to treat your pet as my own, making sure they feel loved and cared for. My home has a fenced yard for the loving furbabies to play. It is also a quiet neighborhood so the walks are relaxing. When pets stay with me they have their own guest room which is also my office so they will be with me all day and night. There are 2 XXL crates (approx. 4’x3’) and 1 large which can be prep for use if needed or recommended by owner.
