Jennifer did a wonderful job taking care of my rabbit, Cypher, while I was away. She sent lots of pics and didn’t mind cleaning his cage to keep him comfortable and happy. Staying on schedule with his food is a big one for me and she did well at keeping things according to plan. I’m super glad I had her help while on vacation!

I was out of town & there was an emergency with one of my cats that my roommate reported. I reached out to heather to see if she could run over and check on my cat that night (super last minute) and she made it work and ensured that everything was okay! Always super happy with her as our pet sitter ❤️

Kelly has been wonderful with our animals. Our boy cat can be so temperamental when we go away, especially if he has hairballs. The care she showed in asking questions and changing routine where necessary to make both cats as comfortable as possible made us confident that we chose the right person to look after our fur babies.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was a kid, and it’s still one of my greatest joys. Today, I’m a proud dog mom to two pups: Roxy, my 16-year-old toy poodle with a sweet but sassy senior personality, and Pickles, our affectionate long-haired Chihuahua mix who loves everyone—dogs and people alike! Over the years, I’ve also cared for many friends’ and family members’ pets, including dogs with different temperaments and medical needs. I'm comfortable administering medications and giving each dog the attention they deserve. I love going on walks and always enjoy bringing the dogs along for fresh air and exercise. My family enjoys having a house full of furry friends. Whether your pup is playful, shy, or somewhere in between, they’ll be treated like part of the family in our home. I work from home, so when I board dogs, I am available to them all day and night. I also have my summers off, so I can make even more time for the dogs I walk or board in the summer months. In my home, safety and comfort are top priorities. I have a securely fenced yard for safe outdoor play and potty breaks, and I’ve set up gated areas inside to provide quiet or separate spaces if a dog needs downtime. I have two friendly dogs who enjoy the company of other pups, and my two children are gentle and respectful with animals—they love helping give our furry guests lots of attention and affection. I always take time to get to know each dog’s personality and needs to make sure they feel safe, loved, and at home. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or quiet space, I’m here to make their stay as stress-free and enjoyable as possible.

About: I've had and trained dogs my entire life. I am 54 and no longer working and would be available to be here with your baby 24/7. I have a fully fenced in back yard for lots of playtime fun. I'm currently 54 and have retired early, so I'm available to care, love, play, walk, and look after your furry friend 24 hours a day. I have a fully fenced in yard that they have full access to run and play in. Your pet will be treated like family. I allow pets on my furniture so that we can relax and snuggle together.

Erin was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Lola, while we were away for a week. She stopped by twice a day to walk her, feed her, and give her plenty of attention. Lola adored her from day one. What really impressed us was Erin’s calm, thoughtful care during an unexpected heat wave. She kept us updated, adjusted Lola’s routine to keep her safe, and made sure she stayed healthy and comfortable despite the weather. Her communication was timely, kind, and incredibly reassuring. We came home to a happy, relaxed pup — the best sign of all. We highly recommend Erin as a sitter to anyone looking for someone reliable, compassionate, and truly attentive.

Bridget is great with our dogs, she takes such good care of them! She was able to help us out on very short notice, and did a wonderful job taking care of all 4 of our dogs, and followed our instructions to the tee. Very quick to respond, and good with communicating during the check ins as well, we got lots of photos so we could see the dogs were doing well. A+ sitter, will be booking again!

We have enjoyed working with Samauria so far! She came by for a meet and greet first, which we feel is very important. Our pup Poe was loving on her from the start, appreciating the scratches and belly rubs given. They had their first visit today and all went well. Samauria was communicative and save for a tiny house alarm kink, she followed all our instructions. She even alerted me to Poe’s excitement outside that irritated her paws because of the ice. I greatly appreciate her efforts with that. We look forward to future visits and a weekend stay coming up.

About: Hi! I’m Lexie (Alexandria for long), and I’ve been assisting in animal rescue since I was born! I’m a recent college grad, and I can’t think of a better way to earn a couple extra bucks than to get to play with animals. Dogs, cats, fish, birds, rodents, reptiles and more, I'll love them all! My phone is glued to me, so I’m always easily contactable. Can’t wait to meet you! I'm gone for work 7:30AM-5:00PM Monday-Friday, and I'm off Saturday and Sunday. For weekday house sitting, as long as your pet is okay being left alone during those hours, I'm still happy to do it! While I don’t have any professional vet training, I’m comfortable administering oral and topical medications when necessary. I always walk on-leash for your pet's safety.

Nathaly is caring and dependable. My pets look forward to their time with her playing and being snuggled. I have an elderly dog who requires medication and a special diet and Nathaly carries her down the steps and makes sure her needs are met. She is a loving person and flexible with my crazy schedule and long shifts. 💕

I was Very worried with leaving my dogs for a few days. They have never been with anyone except for my family. Adriane exceeded my expectations. She was very patient with my dogs and updated me everyday. She even took some extra time out to hang out with them after their session was over. She even helped clean up the mess that my dogs made in the house. I’m already planning my next vacation just so I can book with her again.
