“Annette is a wonderful sitter and I highly recommend her. She is trustworthy, communicative, and kind and shows a great love and passion for taking care of animals!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs practically my whole life, and I’ve also worked at a pet food store so I’ve had experiences with all dog types. My friends and neighbors have often trusted me with their dogs. I currently work part-time (typically 9 am-2 pm) so I have plenty of free time in my afternoons and evenings to take care of your dog! I can also be pretty flexible if given enough notice. I am very respectful of anyone’s homes, and I always make sure to leave the place looking the same, if not better, than it was when I arrived.
“I am so thankful for Gabriella watching our dog Lacy for a few days! I had a lot of specific instructions and Gabriella was very nice and understanding and followed everything we asked. She gave me daily updates and pictures. She left the house super clean after her stay which we also appreciated. I definitely recommend Gabriella for going above and beyond, she really cares about the pets she watches and for the worried owners leaving their dogs! 5 stars!”
“Rachel was awesome! She was here for a whole week watching our 7 yr old dog and 14 yr old cat (on medication). She sent pictures, the house was very clean when we returned, and most importantly, Smitty & Emma were happy and well cared for ❤️ She was excellent at communication with us, and we couldn’t have asked for more. We will definitely ask for her again. Thank you, Rachel, for our worry-free road trip!”
“This was our second time using Daniel's services and to tell you the peace of mind we felt being away from our baby and knowing she was being well cared for is indescribable. Will definitely be using him again in the future!”
About: I have had pets in my household for as long as I could remember. Growing up we had cats, dogs, hamsters, Guinea pigs, and hermit crabs. In high school, I watched family and neighbors pets while they were away. In college, I got a job at a humane society. Here, I learned how to care for sick animals, administer medications, give vaccinations, treat fleas, remove ticks, take care of puppies and seniors, and much more to make sure all the animals were healthy. Also, I learned how to deal with aggressive and behavioral dogs/cats. Now, I have 4 dogs and 3 cats of my own. Most of them were rescues. I am currently a substitute teacher while I go back to school for my teaching degree. Days vary but typically I will be working 8 hours a day if I do get a job for the day. On weekends, I normally don’t have anything going on. I have a fenced in backyard that allows my dogs to run and use the bathroom. In the morning and at night, I take them for walks. In the afternoon, I take my GSP for a run. On weekends, we like to go to Sniffspots or hiking. In a clients home, I will take them for walks, play in the fenced in backyard if applicable, and sometimes with permission will take them hiking.
About: I am a lifelong animal lover with over 10 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I grew up in a home full of pets and have always been surrounded by animals, which taught me early on how to care for them with love, patience, and responsibility. I have two cats of my own and have cared for many others through house-sitting and check-ins during college. I know how important it is to respect each cat’s unique personality and routine — whether they’re social, shy, or need special care. I also spent years walking, house-sitting, and nannying dogs throughout college, treating every pet like they were part of my own family. From energetic puppies to senior dogs needing a gentler touch, I’m confident in providing personalized, loving care. I’m reliable, communicative, and truly enjoy connecting with animals. Whether you're leaving for a trip or just need daily help, you can count on me to care for your furry family like they’re my own! I work part-time, so I have plenty of free time during the day and some evenings to spend with pets. On my weekends off, I love nothing more than hanging out with furry friends, it’s the highlight of my week and a fun way to fill my time! When caring for pets in their home, I make sure to follow their usual routine so they feel safe and happy while you're away. I provide fresh food and water, clean litter boxes or let dogs out as needed, and give them plenty of love and attention. I also take dogs on walks to make sure they get exercise and enrichment. I treat every pet like my own and every home with respect, reliable, caring, and always focused on keeping your pets comfortable and stress-free.
About: Hi! I’ve been around animals my whole life and can’t imagine a home without them. I’ve had pets for as long as I can remember, and I got my very own dog when I was 13 — I took care of everything from daily walks and training to vet visits and snuggles on the couch. I’ve had puppies in my house for each of my 3 siblings and my very own soul dog for 16 years. Pet care throughout the week is my summer job before heading out to college. I am very flexibile, whenever an animal out there needs someone to take care of them! Some pets like cuddles and attention and playtime, others expect their own space. It’s easy to read whatever pets prefer! Feeding is always on time, walks are welcome, and any special necessities will be marked down and remembered— with frequent potty breaks.
“We were very pleased with Jada as a dog and house sitter. She promptly communicated with me and had no problem with a meet-n-greet. Our dogs loved her instantly, and they really loved the walks! Our house was left in the same state that we left it. We will definitely be using Jada in the future!”
“From the first time I met her, I knew she was a dog lover. Olive obviously enjoyed the time she spent with Brooke. When I came home, Olive was very calm happy to see me, but not at all anxious. Many thanks to Brooke for her care and love for Olive while I was gone.”
About: I have taken in many animals of all kinds throughout the years , Persistent and accountable caretaker. It is important to me to make a difference to all walks of life. Currently I am staying home with my young children, I am available most days of the week! And am flexible to you and your pets wishes. I have a few aquarium animals, no dogs or cats, but I also care for some of the animals next door quite often. We have small children if your pet is tolerable of them and crating is optional per your request.
“Kara did great with my dogs. She kept in good contact and sent lots of videos and pictures. Both dogs seemed in great spirits in the updates and the house and dogs were all intact when I returned!! ? I plan to use Kara again!”
About: I have always had a love for animals. They hold a special place in my heart.

I will make sure your pet is fed, and taken care of. I’d do anything for my dogs and even other people’s pets! I am responsible, clean, and well kept. I will treat your dog as if it’s mine and love him/her to death(: You’ll never have to worry about your dog not getting the care it needs when I’m around! Overall, I’m a huge dog lover and would love to take care of your furbaby! I am currently off of work so I will have almost every day to walk/drop by your fur baby during the day! And when I get back to work I will still love to walk and do drop ins! My own dog has her own fenced in yard. She is pretty old so I don’t have to worry about her running off but if any client has a request for a leash or if I don’t see a fenced yard I will make sure to always use a leash on your pet! I will always make sure they are safe and sound!
