I hired Amanda to check in on my three cats over a long weekend. She was great! Very dependable, likeable and knowledgeable with my cats. She understood their needs and quirks. I was very comfortable having her coming into my home. I will not hesitate to hire her again when the need arises. Thank you, Amanda!

Ann Marie was an amazing sitter for our two kitties! My first time using a sitter but she made the process seamless and gave us peace of mind. She even took time to take photos and give them treats. Couldn’t have asked for more and will definitely rebook next time we leave for vacation.

Our cat Scout is usually nervous about meeting new people, and about being left alone. Arianna won him over quickly and helped him relax enough to eat while we were away. Great job!

Susan did a phenomenal job taking care of our really happy boys on our really busy schedule. I couldn't be happier with the exceptional care my furry friend received from Susan! Their genuine love for dogs was evident from the start. Not only did they follow all instructions diligently, but they went above and beyond to ensure our dogs felt at home. Daily updates with pictures reassured me that my pup was in good hands. I highly recommend Susan to anyone seeking a trustworthy and caring sitter for their beloved pet. A true gem in the world of dog sitting!

I can’t recommend Maddy enough! She took amazing care of my cat, Jinx, while I was away. Maddy was incredibly thoughtful, responsible, and clearly loves animals. She kept me updated with photos and little notes about how Jinx was doing, which gave me so much peace of mind. When I got home, Jinx was happy and relaxed. It’s such a relief knowing I can trust someone who genuinely cares. If you’re looking for someone to treat your pets like family, Maddy’s the one!

Walter was so courteous and showed up on time every day and I could tell me animals were taken care of. He even offered more support for the animals for an extended period when my travel was impacted by the snow. He came 2x a day for my dogs and played with them and even stayed extra time s few times, and was able to give them medications and feed them, along with my cats as well. He was also very communicative, and followed instructions. I can tell my animals are happy. I will be using Walter again!

Dayanara did an excellent job taking care of Cora. She followed directions and sent me pictures as well. She delivers such a great service. The Meet and Greet was very professional and she even brought some treats and toys. I was very impressed. Daya cleaned up a bit as well and I came home to a well organized living room. Cora and I are very thankful. I’m definitely going to rebook with her. Thanks Daya!

About: Hello, My name is Maria! I will be going into my senior year of college, after I graduate I hope to continue my studies to become a veterinarian. I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind. Friends and family have relied on me to walk, play, and feed their pets while they were away on vacation or at work. Currently I am working at a local animal shelter where I have gained experience handling nervous and reactive dogs, as well as seniors and puppies. I have also been trained to administer medication. I love all dogs and will treat them as my own! During the school year I will only be available during certain hours so please send me a message to discuss what days/times you will be in need of my help! I will be respectful of your home and be inside only during the time of my services. I will leave everything as I found it.

About: Hello! I’m Liz, a K-1 teacher with a passion for understanding the unique, non-verbal personalities of our beloved pets. With extensive personal experience caring for dogs, cats, reptiles, and fish, I know that animal communication is all in the details—from a swish of a tail to a specific reptilian posture. I am responsible, nurturing, and looking to fill my extra time by providing capable, knowledgeable care for your "fur kids." Whether it’s high-energy dog walking or keeping your scaled/finned friends on their specific schedules, your pets will be safe, loved, and thoroughly engaged. I am currently working as a teacher in the afternoon and have morning and evening availability M-F for dog walking, daily check-in's, house sitting and more. As a K-1 teacher, I specialize in "reading the room" and picking up on non-verbal cues, a skill that allows me to provide an exceptional level of observant, intuitive care for your pets. My approach is rooted in safety and structured communication; I don’t just "stop by," but instead actively monitor body language—from a cat’s tail swish to a reptile’s posture—to ensure every animal is thriving. You can expect detailed updates after every visit regarding behavior, appetite, and health, giving you total peace of mind while you're away. Whether I’m double-checking heat and humidity settings for your exotic pets or maintaining hyper-vigilance during dog walks, I treat your home and "fur kids" with the highest level of professional responsibility, ensuring your space is secure and your pets feel safe, seen, and loved.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 20 years, working with all breeds, sizes, and personalities—from high-energy pups to senior dogs who need a gentler approach. What sets me apart is my focus on structured, attentive care. I don’t just “walk dogs”—I pay attention to their behavior, energy levels, and overall well-being to make sure they feel safe, exercised, and balanced. I’m experienced with leash manners, basic training reinforcement, and handling strong or reactive dogs. I’m also comfortable supporting weight management plans, medication routines, and special care needs. You’ll always receive reliable communication, photo updates, and peace of mind knowing your dog is in capable hands. I treat every dog like my own and take pride in being someone pet parents can truly depend on. Currently helping dogs improve their health, behavior, and daily routine through consistent, structured walks. Pet care is a consistent and structured part of my daily routine, not something I squeeze in. I intentionally schedule my days around the pets I’m caring for to ensure they receive reliable, on-time service. I maintain a manageable client schedule so each pet gets my full attention, whether it’s walks, drop-in visits, or extended care. This allows me to stay punctual, attentive, and flexible when needed. My goal is to provide dependable care that pet parents can count on, with clear communication and consistency every visit year round. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. This includes consistent feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific care instructions provided. I pay close attention to behavior, energy levels, and overall well-being, adjusting my approach as needed—whether that’s structured exercise for high-energy dogs or a calm, patient presence for more sensitive pets. Cleanliness and respect for your home are extremely important to me. I keep feeding areas tidy, refresh water, and ensure litter boxes or outdoor areas are properly maintained. You’ll receive regular updates and photos, so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to provide a seamless, trustworthy experience where your pet feels safe and you have complete peace of mind while you’re away. I approach pet care with structure, attention to detail, and genuine respect for both the pet and the home.
