“Macy did great, she did everything that we asked of her and more, and our puppies seemed to enjoy her company a lot and we look forward to having her visit with them again soon.”


“Dalton does an excellent job! I left home reassured that my pet (family member) would be just fine because he handles everything in such a confident and professional manner!”


“From the first time I met Jordan, I knew my cat Bobby would be in good hands. I always felt informed about how things were going thanks to her excellent communication and regular updates. I had expected to worry at least a little about Bobby during my vacation, but Jordan put that to rest with her first status update. Highly, highly recommend.”


“We are very thankful to Michael for taking care of our not 1, not 2, but 5 pups!!! 3 of the 5 are complete wildlings but he patiently handled them with grace. He is very easy to work with in scheduling. Michael even showed up for a meet & greet and spent quite a while learning the most he could about our babies so he would be prepared to take care of them when needed. We look forward to building the relationship & being able to count on him to help us when we have plans that cause us to be away from them. Thank you Michael!!!”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with over 30 years of experience caring for furry friends. Growing up in a family with multiple dogs and cats, we often took in strays and provided loving homes for rescues. Over the years, I’ve fostered numerous dogs through rescue groups, ensuring they feel safe and cared for. I currently have a sweet and gentle 12-pound Shih Poo who adores making new friends. My two kids, aged 8 and 14, share my love for dogs and enjoy helping out. Since I work from home, your pup will never be alone and will receive plenty of love and attention throughout the day. Our home features a secure 6-foot wooden fence, perfect for safe outdoor play. I specialize in providing a calm and welcoming environment for all dogs, including shy or anxious pups. Whether your dog needs cuddles, playtime, or just a companion, they’ll feel right at home here! Let me know if you’d like to arrange a meet-and-greet! Since I work from home, I’m available throughout the day to care for your dog. Each day, I ensure your pet gets regular walks, playtime, and cuddles, along with any specific care they need. My Shih Poo, who is very social, helps make every dog feel at home and welcome. In my home, I provide a calm and secure environment where your pet can feel relaxed and comfortable. On the weekends and after school, my kids also help with care, giving your dog even more love and attention!

About: Just a chill pet lover! Would love to share this with your animals! New friends for treats or walks, either way they will be treated like royalty!

I make sure to follow any and all instructions given to me while in a customers home, or at my own! I would love to host your pets!

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life—dogs, cats, horses, smaller animals, birds, and even a longhorn or two! I’ve cared for everything from energetic puppies to senior cats, from barn animals to guinea pigs. I truly believe every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and well cared for—whether they’re curled up on the couch or running in the pasture. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes and temperaments, and I treat every animal like they’re my own! I have a very flexible schedule! I have a few short trips planned throughout the summer before I go back to college in August, other than that I am there when you need me! I care for my own pets with their specific needs, my dogs go on car rides every day, baths every few weeks, my horses get fly spray, supplements, fly boots, all the extras, my cats are mostly outdoor but still get all the love when they are at the house. As for my clients home, I treat it as if it were my own, I have had to feed supplements, do special care for food, etc. So I am pretty much prepared for anything!

About: Looking for someone who treats your pup like family? I’m a dependable, experienced dog sitter who offers more than just the basics. With a genuine love for animals and a calm, patient approach, I ensure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved while you're away. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, feeding, or cuddles on the couch, I tailor care to meet your dog’s unique personality and needs. I'm attentive to routines, experienced with all sizes and temperaments, and comfortable giving medication if needed. Your dog’s well-being is my top priority—and I’ll always keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're gone. I am free at all times! I take college classes online and dont have a set schedule that I need to keep in mind, the only activity I do daily is exercising and caring for my own pup! Whenever I take dogs on walks I always bring a portable water bowl and treats, sometimes I'll teach them tricks for fun! For dog sitting I love taking them on walks, throwing them the ball and caring for them by grooming them! It seems to help the owners when their dogs already have a bath and are clean so they dont have to worry about it!

About: I’ve take care of dogs since I was 8. I also have had experience with a special needs diabetic dog for five years. I also have extensive walking and volunteering experiences at a Humane Society. I’ve had large and medium dogs since I was little. I walked them almost every day and was responsible for medication giving, and treat and play. I would make sure if it was a check in and play that the client had a fenced yard if outside play was needed. If not I would play inside the clients home, such as tug of war and roller ball. When walking dogs, I will always let the dog approach me for the first time, especially if they feel threatened. Then when we both feel comfortable we will go in a walk for as long as the breed specifies needs.

“Jessica stepped up for me when I had to go out of town for an entire month! She checked in on my cat daily or every other day as scheduled (even after getting in a car wreck one day!) and made sure to get some play time in. Jessica was super easy to work with, very responsive through messaging, and always took several photos on visit days. She eased my worries and made sure my kitty’s behavior didn’t change. Highly recommend for cat owners!”
