We can't even begin to describe how amazing Jacqueline took care of our dog while staying at her house! She kept us constantly updated with photos and comments, something that put our minds totally at ease while attending a wedding out of town. She has a beautiful dog of her own and treated our dog as if he, too, was family. Her love for animals is quite apparent. Our boy just absolutely loved her entire family and I know that he will be excited to spend more time with them!

Chelsea was wonderful, we booked her last minute after a family member became ill and could not sit our dog, Kenzie. She stayed over night and sent pictures and updates. I felt very confident leaving our home and dog in her care. Will definitely use her again.

Ryan was so attentive, patient and handled an emergency situation with ease. When our 4 year old Labrador got sick, Ryan was the best at communicating, confirming he could handle the situation and managed to put us all at ease. Highly recommend him. We were grateful for his professionalism.

About: Taking care of animals has always come very naturally to me! As a child I liked to run around the farm I lived on searching for kittens and petting horses. As someone who has loved and nurtured many of my own pets over the years, I naturally gravitated towards taking care of others beloved fur children. I have knowledge of different diets and have had both cats and dogs on raw diets as well as standard diets. I also have experience with senior animals, and their special needs. I started out helping friends or parents of friends when they would travel and have now found myself offering services to others and growing my business. I absolutely love pet sitting and helping families feel comfortable as they travel or are at work for the day. When I am at your home I make sure to not only nurture and love on your pets but to take care of your space. I offer daily updates if preferred and collect mail, keep things tidy, etc. I am able to give some medicine if required and enjoy the company of all ages of animals. I have experience mostly with cats and dogs but am open to taking care of smaller critters too. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or to set up a meet and greet! I offer pet sitting at your home Monday-Sunday with a flexible schedule. I am available for drop ins and overnight stays. My main focus is pet sitting. When staying with your pet or even just dropping in, I can feed, play, crate, or give some meds to your pet if necessary. I am able to take walks or run around for a bit in the back yard. My goal is to always make the pet and the owner feel as comfortable as possible while maintaining a normal routine where necessary. I ask that owners leave detailed instructions so I can accommodate your animals as best as possible. I also request that any cameras in the home be notified to myself before I stay and I like to be clear that my partner may sometimes stay with me for overnights.

About: I am an animal lover at heart, and I treat every pet as part of my extended family. I have experience caring for pets of all ages—from newborns to seniors—and supporting them through every stage of life. I am skilled in administering medication, keeping pets calm, and catering to each one’s unique emotions, whether they need extra love and attention or quiet, private time. I am a full-time pet sitter, which means I take care of pets every day. My responsibilities include feeding them, walking dogs, playing with animals, and making sure they are safe and comfortable. I also handle grooming, cleaning their living spaces, and monitoring their health to ensure they are happy and well cared for. I have a fenced yard, access to a dog park, and plenty of space for pets to run and play. My home is clean, safe, and completely free of cigarette and marijuana smoke. I provide boarding, daily walks, and lots of attention to ensure your pets are happy, healthy, and well cared for.

About: After raising a puppy to become a guide dog for the blind from 2007 until 2009, I was heartbroken (yet very proud!) when I learned that my black lab had moved past her training and would be going on to help a young blind man. Without a dog in my life, I constantly felt like I was missing a much needed companion. I have since gone on to rescue multiple dogs and cats who I absolutely consider my best friends. When my pets need a sitter, I want to know that the person visiting is someone who will show love and affection to make them feel at ease. I am confident I can provide the same level of care I expect for my pets to your pets as well! I currently work 3 days a week at my full time job but have lots of extra time in the week to spend with your pets! I am a firm believer in doing whatever it takes to put your pets at ease and to help them feel the most comfortable. My dog does not use a crate and roams freely when home alone, but I am open to whatever works best and will follow your lead!

About: I have over six years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and energy levels. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me with walking, feeding, bathing, playtime, and overnight care. I’m patient, dependable, and always focused on keeping dogs comfortable, safe, and happy while maintaining their normal routine. Pet care fits well into my routine. I’m mostly available on weekends and can coordinate weekday care depending on location and timing. I’m flexible and committed to maintaining each pet’s normal schedule and routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all care instructions, keep a clean and calm environment, and monitor pets closely. I respect your home, provide updates, and make sure pets feel secure, relaxed, and well cared for at all times.

About: Hello my name is lillianna and I am a lover of all animals! I have worked in pet care on and off a couple of years while working my full time job. Recently I have put my full time job to the side to make my own schedule to work with children and pets. I am also a babysitter as well as a pet sitter so I know how to take care of your pet as if it’s your child (which it is of course). I have a dog and three cats of my own so I know how to take care of them very well! Your pets will feel at peace with me around and you can be at peace of mind knowing they are in good hands! I am currently babysitting for a couple different families whenever they need me, the rest of my week I have time to myself to plan when I can come by to watch your pets! I prefer to watch your pets at your house because I feel they would be more comfortable at your house since I have pets of my own at my house.

About: I'm a proud mama of a st bernard/poodle rescue. Her name is Dolce (dol-che). Love being with her and training her (trained her to ring a bell and that has been a life saver). Would love to walk your dog or drop in. I know the sad feeling of being away from your dog and making sure that they are more than ok when you are away. I would make sure that you are well informed with updates and make sure that your most loved dog is treated well, having a good walk and learn a few tricks with treats. I have learned training Dolce by myself and aware of the patience and satisfaction needed when dogs are obedient and are healthy because they are trained well.
