“Amazing pet sitter! My cat Elsa is always scared of new people and always hides, but with Christine she was comfortable enough to come out of hiding ♡ Christine is very kind and considerate, and I HIGHLY recommend her to anyone who needs their fur baby taken care of. I'm a very happy customer :)”
“Phyllis was a wonderful and attentive pet sitter for my cat during a recent trip. She is easy to work with, provided lots of updates and photos, and my cat loved her. I would hire or recommend Phyllis to others in a heart beat. Knowing that she was watching my cat made enjoying my vacation much easier. Thank you again Phyllis!”
About: I’ve always had a soft spot for animals! I had plenty as a kid and was always helping family members with them. I take pride in training puppies and young dogs, even though I’m not a professional trainer, I know a few tricks! Pet care is what I do full time, I’m always available and I feel like they can use all the attention and loves when their parents aren’t home! I have a daughter who enjoys being with the fur babies as much as I do! I make sure I am easy going and trusting when approaching a pup that has never met me. They’re just like us! I am a very loving and nurturing person, I plan to be someone your fur babies look forward to seeing!
“Abigail was a great companion to our cat when we were gone, she had great communication, sent pictures and even went above and beyond to help with filling water bowl. Could not recommend more and would book with her again! 🐱”
“My 3 cats looked very well taken care of and Emily made sure that my house was clean when I got back from my trip. She did such a great job. Definitely will book her again!!”
About: I have a current access card for the base. I have lots of experience with all breeds of dogs from a young age. I was involved in a local 4-H program starting in grade school, and am a current Berner mama. Puppies are also not a problem! I am currently staying home with my kids, and working remotely online, so my schedule is quite open. I am available consistently throughout the week. I prioritize your pet's safety and comfort by ensuring a secure environment, following all care instructions, and keeping a watchful eye during visits. Your pet's happiness and well-being come first.
“Jen—thank u for your great care of George while we were on our trip. Your playing with him, feeding him, and cleaning up behind him—we appreciate it all. We’d love to have u back next time we leave town!”
“Brandie was so phenomenal with our boys that we booked her again. And for a second time, she did an excellent job giving our cats attention, making sure they were fed, and healthy. She’s also very kind, responsive, and so good with animals. Thanks again!”
About: Hi! I’m MacKenzie, your pet’s new best friend and part-time squirrel scout. While I might not have a fancy pet-sitting degree, I’ve grown up with dogs and cats, and my own dog (a.k.a. my four-legged child) has taught me plenty—especially about basic training, reactivity, and the art of treating every leaf like it’s a masterpiece. I’m also a pro at giving meds and following care instructions to a T, so your pet’s routine won’t miss a beat. Plus, as an avid hiker, I’m more than happy to take active pups on day hikes for a little extra adventure! I get that every walk is a big deal, every squirrel is a personal nemesis, and if there’s a cat involved, they’re probably running the household. And yes, I’m here for my own steps too, because walking is my therapy! I'm currently in between full-time jobs, so I have ample flexibility for pet care throughout the week—perfect for midday walks, medication administration, or just dropping by to say “hello”! If your pet lives more than 30 minutes from Petersburg, they should be comfortable being home alone for up to 8 hours once I return to full-time work. For now, my schedule is wide open, especially on weekends! Routine is important to me, and it’s no doubt important to your pets! My primary goal is always to limit the amount of change, so feeding and potty break times will be strictly adhered to. If there’s valuable training you’ve worked hard to implement, it won’t go to waste! Don’t be shy about letting me know exactly which cues and commands to use, and any other little personality quirks I should know about.
“Best experience! She was amazing, patient, and caring! I will definitely book again, and recommend her to my friends! My cats had never been clipped, and they were skittish, but she helped calm them, and get the job done. No issues, they act as if nothing happened! Wonderful experience!”
“Shelby is awesome! She was very kind and helped continue our cat’s acclimation to our new kitten when we had to go out of town. There were daily updates with pictures and great communication - I would definitely have her catsit again if the need arises!”
“Amanda has been my go to pet sitter since I moved to into town last year. She has always been great, and this time, one of my cats needed extra medical attention, and Amanda was able to handle it! She can pill a cat who doesn’t like to be pilled. As usual, she provided detailed updates and plenty of great photos!”
“Jammie was phenomenal! Volunteered to come meet me before the visit and gave me consistent updates on my babies! Will absolutely use her services again!”
“Brooklynn was amazing with my babies! Lots of play time and pictures. She was very communicative with me and gave them lots of loving. Highly recommend!”
“Coco was well feed and loved. Sitter was timely fir her visits. During visits sat and played my Coco. Coco tail was wagging that is a sign that she enjoyed the company. Thanks again.”
“Monique is such an awesome pet sitter!! She always sends pictures and my cats love her. She even brought my packages in for me when i was away. 100% recommend!”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life. I currently have a working dog of my own. I’ve had a long journey when coming to training her. I take care of my pet everyday with love, training and time out exploring the world. We’re constantly trying something new everyday with new people and animals. I will make sure the environment is safe and secure. I always double check when it comes to the safety of others. I will accommodate where needed.
“great communication & super friendly! kept me updated which is nice. I felt comfortable leaving my kitten with her! definitely will book again ?”
About: I've been the go- to person for puppy cuddles, senior dog care, and long walk to anywhere for over two decades. At home I share space with three felines, one Shi Tzu, several cat trees and scratch pads, dog toys and a nice sized backyard to meet all of their needs and quirky personalities. Whether your baby loves Churu, wet food, tummy rubs, solo time or the occasional walk around the block (stroller included), I'm here to keep them happy while you are away. My home is equipped with puppy pads, litter boxes, pet crate, treats & toys since there is always a fur baby underfoot. I have interactive games, balls, ropes and more to keep everyone entertained and happy. My daily routine is a mix of love, responsibility and chaos. Creating the perfect environment, is all about the meet and greet, consistency, patience and understanding of their unique needs. Having a cozy environment, establishing a routine or following the ones are ready in place, I make sure the pets feel safe and secure in their Home Away from Home.
About: I have groomed a dog before. I have bottle fed kittens in my vet program. I have been dealing with dogs and cats almost all my life. I do work during the week on some days, but I am very flexible with my schedule. I don’t work on weekends, so that is very available. At my home, I have two dogs and they are well cared for. They have a nice, big fenced back yard and they get play time a lot, so that they can stay active.
