1. Janis & Devin R.
“I was nervous about finding a pet sitter (my mom had watched my cats when I was away until a stroke left her no longer able to) but I’m so glad I found someone who not only cared for them but gave them playtime and treats while I was away. Janis was excellent with communication and quick to reply. I loved getting the daily photos after visits ended and knowing they were in good hands. Would highly recommend if you are looking for a sitter for your fur baby’s! Thanks so much for caring for my kitties, Janis!”

10. Emily G.
“Top tier Rover. Emily is always saving me in a tight spot and taking care of my kitty, Nyx, during my ultra last minute holiday plans or emergencies. She’s very communicative and follows pet care instructions to a T, she’s saved my ass twice in a bind and I have no complaints especially since my baby is fed and a little less lonely while I’m away. You’re in good hands if you choose Emily.”
11. Grace S.
“Grace was amazing! I trusted her to do a few drop-in visits for my fancy rats and she did great! She was excited to care for them and comfortable with handling them which can be so hard to find. My first sitter cancelled on me but Grace was able to step in within a days notice and she even sent me pictures while I was away. I look forward to booking her again in the future!”
12. Lilliana R.
“She was wonderful with my husky! Spirit is a rescue with a mostly unknown past. She is usually in "Stranger Danger" mode but while she was definitely not happy Lilliana managed to gain her trust and get her bathed with little drama. I am so thankful that Lilliana answered my request.”

15. Anna G.
About: Hi, I'm Anna, a dedicated pet lover with the flexibility to offer dog walking, sitting, and pet care services throughout the week, thanks to my work-from-home schedule. Whether it's weekdays or weekends, I'm here to ensure your furry friend gets the attention and exercise they need! Happy Summer! I live on Lake Michigan so taking dogs to the beach has always been my favorite activity. While I work from home, I'm able to do drop-in dog visits and dog walks in the Michigan City/Long Beach/New Buffalo area. I grew up around German shepherds/collie mixes, so loving on big dogs is my thing, especially on long walks and post-walk snuggling on the couch on those lazy days. I no longer have animals and hope to one day adopt a dog when I'm ready, but for now, I really enjoy being around all types of dog breeds - big and small! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. Working from home gives me the flexibility to walk, sit, and care for pets throughout the day, ensuring they get the love and attention they need every day. I provide personalized care tailored to each pet's needs. In my home, pets enjoy a safe, loving environment with plenty of playtime and attention. When caring for pets in my clients' homes, I ensure they stick to their routines and feel comfortable, happy, and well-cared for in their familiar surroundings.

18. Qiana L.
“Qiana would make a great pet sitter and walker because she allows has the best intentions for the pet. She treats them with love and attention, while also caring for the pets needs regularly and orderly. Qiana also has a deep passion for anything pets.”
19. brandi b.
“I was very happy with the care my cat received from Brandi while I was away. Brandi was terrific and thorough while caring for my cat. Brandi took care to make sure my cat was well taken care of and kept safe. I appreciate the help from Brandi and I recommend Brandi to anyone who needs a pet sitter.”
20. Natasha N.
About: I have always enjoyed spending my time with animals. I got my first dog when I was in elementary school - sadly he recently passed away - but since coming to college I have been missing my sweet fur baby. Being able to play with and care for someone else's pet while also earning extra cash would be an ideal job experience for me. Getting a new pet really isn’t an option for me right now. With all the free time on my hands, and I would love to get the chance to spend it walking and playing with your fur babies! In the past, I have dog sat for other friends and family and I really enjoyed it and having the extra company is always a plus!
