“We were pleased with our dog, Callie's stay with Alex and Nicolas. They walked her numerous times and sent us many photos so that we knew she was doing well. We had a great peace of mind while we had to be away. I would recommend highly!”


“Jamie did an amazing job watching our baby. She made me feel comfortable and Sutton warmed up to her very fast. I highly recommend her and will be using again. Sutton I think misses Jamie’s family as well now that we have her home!”



About: I’ve always loved dogs and apart from having my own, I’ve been lucky to have experience many others! From puppies to senior dogs who need medicine, I try to do as much as I can to make sure they’re comfortable! I have part time work and classes, so I’m very flexible in when I can walk or watch pets! If I know in advance, it’s pretty easy for me to move things around. I don’t have a dog in my current home, but I offer pretty constant attention to pets no matter what I’m doing. I also make sure to play enough to get them tired out for a good sleep!

“Sammy loved his stay with Emily and the whole family. Both Emily and her husband were super friendly, easy-going and great with Sammy. She sent pictures and communicated regularly, so I was completely at ease. First time leaving Sammy, but will most definitely plan another vacation so I can leave him again! 😀”


About: I am a veterinary technician at a small animal practice looking to earn some extra money taking care of your pets! I am comfortable around all types of dogs, cats, and even horses. I enjoy outdoor activities that your pet can participate in such as playing fetch and going for walks or hikes. If you were to hire me as your dog walker, pet sitter, or dog boarder, I will promise to care for your pets as my very own. The people that I have animal sat for in the past have mentioned that I am a great sitter and take excellent care of their pets and their home. Please consider me as a sitter for your furry loved ones when you have your next date night, vacation getaway, or long weekend from home! I do work full time at a veterinary clinic, but currently 1/2 days on Wednesday. So most availability would be evenings, possibly during lunch break, Wednesday afternoon, and weekends. I can stop by in the mornings as well. I do not have a fenced in yard, but do live in a small neighborhood so they can be on leash or chain hookup if needed. I have 3 large friendly dogs that play well with others too!

“Wow wow wow Lenore was such a blessing! She watched my pup last minute and kept me updated the whole time. She was very very friendly and just an overal sweet woman. I highly suggest her and recommend her to everyone I know who's got a pup. 10/10!!”



About: With years of hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs, I’ve developed a deep love and natural intuition for working with animals of all kinds. I’ve provided pet sitting services both locally and out of state, offering dependable and heartfelt care no matter the location. Whether it’s daily drop-ins, overnight stays, or extended visits, I treat every animal like they’re part of my own family. What sets me apart is my unique connection and understanding of animal behavior, needs, and energy. I don’t just “watch” pets—I build trust and comfort with them, creating a calm and loving environment while their people are away. I share my home with two beloved cats who are not only my companions, but also my familiars. They’ve taught me even more about the special bonds animals create with us when treated with respect, kindness, and consistency. Pets bring joy, peace, and magic into my life—and I aim to return the favor every chance I get. a passionate animal lover with years of experience caring for pets of all kinds. I have a fully fenced-in backyard perfect for safe outdoor play, and I’m just a short walk to a local dog park—and only a quick drive from several amazing dog-friendly beaches! Whether you need someone to host your pup, drop in for check-ins and walks, or stay overnight to keep your home and pets cozy and secure, I’ve got you covered. I always ensure that your pets receive plenty of love, attention, and exercise while you're away. Your pets will be treated like family here! I’m a contract worker by trade, which gives me a highly flexible schedule and the ability to be available throughout most parts of the day. Whether your pet needs morning walks, mid-day check-ins, or evening cuddles, I can easily adapt to their routine and provide consistent care and attention when you need it most. I take great care to create a safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment for every pet I watch. All of the cleaners used in my home are pet-safe, and any plants I keep are non-toxic to animals. I know how important it is to maintain trust and clear communication, so I always keep an open dialogue with pet parents—whether it’s about special routines, dietary needs, medication, or just sharing a cute photo update. Your pet’s well-being and your peace of mind are always my top priorities.

Rachel M.
“I can’t think of anyone more naturally gifted with animals than Rachel Meininger. From the time she was little, Rachel has had a deep love and connection with pets—especially dogs and cats. They are drawn to her, and she has an incredible way of instantly earning their trust and affection. When Rachel is home from college, our pets completely abandon us and become hers. They sleep in her bed, follow her everywhere, and soak up the extra love and attention she showers on them. She spoils them in the best possible way—with affection, playtime, and genuine care. Rachel is responsible, compassionate, and truly understands what it means to care for someone else's beloved pet. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet like family, you won’t find anyone better.”

She handles his daily walks and feedings with care and consistency, along with her ability to check on my place or even provide overnight sitting, and she’s always on time!!! What I appreciate most is her excellent communication. She keeps me updated regularly with messages and photos, which really puts my mind at ease. Bowser clearly adores her, and it’s obvious she treats him like one of her own. If you’re looking for someone reliable, thoughtful, and genuinely caring, I highly recommend Gina!”
