“Adalyn stepped in last minute when I had an emergency work trip. Even dealt with some craziness from my extra helpful neighbors during the introduction. She took great care of my babies and was very communicative. 10/10 recommend!”

“Kayla is very understanding and was able to flex her time based on my travel schedule. This was the first time I left my cat alone and I came back to a very happy and calm kitty. Thanks Kayla!”

“I highly recommend Samantha. She was very diligent in caring for a somewhat complicated schedule for several types of animals. When we returned the animals were happy and well cared for. She also house sat for us. She is very respectful of our property and the house was left in immaculate condition! We could not have been more pleased and it is such a relief to have someone we can trust with our animals and our home. Hire Samantha! You will not be disappointed.”

“Jenna was amazing with my girls! I have a 5 year old and a 10 month puppy so they’re a handful. Jenna was communicative and followed all of my instructions carefully! I appreciated her keeping me in the loop on everything so I had peace of mind while I was away. I’ll definitely be using her again in the future and would recommend her!”

“Ryan is awesome. I have two German Shepard’s that can be a handful at times, and they seemed to have a great time with her when she house sat for us. Thanks again!”

About: Hi, I’m Olivia :) I’ve had animals my entire life—including dogs, cats, and birds—and even grew up on a farm, so caring for animals has always been second nature to me. I truly love all animals, and I understand that every pet has their own unique personality, routine, and needs. At home I have two kitties of my own that I love dearly, Gus and Sammie. Because I love to travel myself, I know how important it is to have someone caring, dependable, and trustworthy looking after your pets. Being able to give pet parents peace of mind is exactly why I’m here. I work a hybrid job, which gives me the flexibility to work remotely on many days. Just let me know the dates you’re looking for, and I’ll be happy to check my schedule. I’m comfortable with overnight stays, drop-in visits, walks, feeding, and keeping your pets on their normal routine. Growing up babysitting taught me responsibility, patience, and compassionate care for those who depend on us, and I bring that same level of care to every pet I watch. I treat every animal as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I also love being outdoors, so walks and playtime are always something I look forward to! I’m happy to answer any questions you may have for me!! I look forward to meeting you and your furry (or hairless 😆) family members! In the photos provided, you’ll find some of the pets I’ve had the pleasure of caring for over the years, as well as my two kitties! I have a hybrid remote job, which gives me flexibility throughout the week with advance notice. I typically work 8am to 5 pm on weekdays and have open availability on weekends. I’m happy to help with evening visits, overnight stays, and pet care right after work! Boarding at my home may not be the best option right now, as I would want to make sure my own cats are properly acclimated first and avoid creating unnecessary stress for your pets. I’d be more than happy to provide care in your home, where your pets can stay comfortable in their own familiar environment. If you’d like to meet beforehand, I completely understand and would be happy to arrange a meet-and-greet to make sure everyone feels comfortable.

“Brooke was fantastic to work with and did a great job taking care of Scarlett while we were out of town. She sent daily updates and pictures letting us know our Lil Miss was doing just fine. She ran the vacuum and left the kitchen spotless. We will definitely use her again.”

“Andrew is an exceptional dog, cat sitter! I'm very picky who I'll let watch my best friend & stay in my house and he did an amazing job. He communicated regularly with pics and videos and everyone was happy when I returned! I can't wait to use him regularly when we need a dog/cat sitter! Thank you Andrew!!”

Christina P.

“Mirte was absolutely outstanding! From the moment we connected, she was communicative, thoughtful, and incredibly caring with our home and pets. She went above and beyond in every way, sending regular updates and photos that gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Our pets clearly adored her, and it was obvious she treated them like her own. We came home to a spotless house, happy animals, and everything handled perfectly. Mirte is reliable, kind, professional, and truly one of the best sitters we’ve ever worked with. We would book her again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pets and home. Five stars all around!”

About: I had German Shepherds, Welsh Corgis, a Jindo, and a mixed-breed dog back in Korea, and all of them were well trained. When I meet a new dog, I try to become their friend by making gentle eye contact, lowering myself to their eye level, and offering my hand while patiently waiting until they feel I am safe. I have also dealt with aggressive dogs several times, and in the end, they too became my friends. Since I work from home with flexible time during the week, I have not had my own pet yet because I felt it would be unfair to leave them alone for long hours. However, on weekends I usually dedicate time to myself through photography, driving, and hiking, and I would truly enjoy having the company of your dog or cat during those times. Taking care of a pet would naturally fit into my routine as part of those weekend activities, giving me both companionship and joy while also ensuring the pet has quality time and attention. In my home, I would care for pets as if they were my own friends—providing attention, playtime, and walks, even on rainy days, to make sure they stay active and happy. In a client’s home, I would first ask about any rules or restrictions, such as areas of the house that are off-limits, preferred snacks, daily routines, and any medical concerns. I believe following the owner’s guidance is very important to ensure the pet feels comfortable and safe in their familiar environment.

“Alyssa was fantastic and Wesson (our Great Dane) enjoyed her company. I would highly recommend Alyssa.”

CR C.

About: I have been a pet owner all my life. As a kid, my dog, Jeb, was my best friend. I am loving and great with animals. I am always excited to meet a new dog friend. I love to take my dog on walks so let me take care of your fur baby. I am able to provide specialized services for each dog, depending on their needs. I am reliable and patient, as I have a very spoiled hound dog myself. My availability is open and flexible. I am willing and able to work around your schedule to fit your needs. I would love to play fetch with your dog, run with your dog or just take them on a leisurely stroll in the park.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was a kid, because growing my family always had pets. I love animals and my family can rely on me when it comes to caring for their pets. Having pets and growing up around all sorts of animals has encouraged me to expand my knowledge and kindness to help other’s when it some to taking care of their pets. I’m comfortable around all dogs and cats. When I take care of pets I dedicate my time to care for all of them and their needs. My schedule does change a lot when I go ba k to school or during the summer time as well I at the moment I have part-time availability and can house sit and walk dogs. I will also take last minute bookings on the weekdays, and cancellations. I also travel quite a lot so i apologize in advance for my opening. When it comes to taking care of dogs and other animals, I make sure to take them out on the leash and try to get in at least two walks everyday, as well play with them so they’ll sleep well later on.

About: I have had the pleasure of adopting two special canines. The first a lab/beagle mixed who lived his best years until 17 yo. He was on special diet so I am familiar with restrictions. My current just turned 3 and is a lab/german wired haired pointer mix who is always looking for new friends. She had TPLO surgery last year so I am also comfortable with post-op restrictions!! I work from home daily so I can care for your pet all day!! Whatever your pet needs I can accommodate!! Agreeable to following specific needs if required. Our home is non-smoking and no kiddos!! Fully fenced backyard!! Willing to transport to local dog parks if preferred for daily activity!! Instructions are preferred so we make you pet feel at home!!

“Allison was, by far, the best dog sitter I’ve ever had (in the 10+ years of having dog sitters). She took care of the boys like they were her own. She took care of my house the same as well. This was the first time I’ve ever come home from a trip and NOT had the house smell like dog because the sitter didn’t sweep the floor. She vacuumed, swept, mopped, took out the trash, and even cleaned the bedclothes she used. I came home to some very happy boys who didnt seem worse for the wear AT ALL. She sent videos and took them on walks several times a day. Wish I found her sooner. Can’t recommend her enough!”

“Did a great job! Will definitely use him again!”

About: Hello! I’m Christina, mom of a college student, the sweetest Bugg dog you ever did meet and one playful, fun-loving cat. A caregiver at heart, we have always had a pet or three under our roof. Over the years I have had plenty of experience with puppies/dogs, some with kittens/cats and have also spent time assisting with care for horses. I have experience with bottle feeding, caring for very young kittens and am comfortable with oral medication administration to receptive pets. I have had the honor of caring for several senior dogs during their last days and am very happy to comfort and help keep your furry loved one comfortable during this time. I have a special spot in my heart for Boston terriers, senior pets living their last years, or any pet needing some extra tlc. While I love large dogs too (and am happy to help with them), unfortunately, I am not a fit for large dogs that are not well trained. Able to provide extended care services during the day and/or evening for an extra fee. I would go home to sleep and leave at times daily. Weather permitting, I am able to provide walks for small dogs, medium dogs if they are leash trained. If interested in either, please inquire directly for pricing. New clients: Before booking for care I would like to set-up a time for a meet and greet in your home. This typically takes 10 - 25 minutes and there is a one time fee for this of $10. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask. If my schedule indicates that I am available, then I should be able to accommodate your schedule and what you are needing for your furry friend. I will care for your pets in your home just as you do. Before taking care of your pets for the first time I arrange for a brief meet and greet at your home so you and your pets can get to know me and I can get to know your pet(s), their routine, preferences, etc.

“As always, Bandit was happy to see Tolu and that’s all I need to know that Tolu does a great job with him! I also appreciate the regular pics of our pup while we’re apart.”
