“This dog sitter and his wife constantly go above and beyond for all of their clients. They communicate great. They never leave us short on photos. And our dogs are super spoiled when they are watched by them.”


“Elizabeth was wonderful with my kitties. She was patient and waited for them to warm up and had them coming to greet her just a few days in. She always sent great photos of the cats playing and kept them from feeling lonely while I was gone.”


“Olivia took great care of our two kitties while we were out of town! She was professional, prompt in communication, always on time, and a pleasure to interact with! We will book again and we highly recommend her!!”


“Really grateful to Makenzie for stopping by to take care of my fur babies. She kept in contact with me to let me know what was going on, wrote notes on everything she did and gave my babies attention and fed them while I was out of town. She was nice enough to do a meet and greet before I left so I could make sure my big dog would be alright and he immediately wanted her attention when she walked in my door. Will 100% book with her again!”


“Once again, Betsy took such wonderful care of our two cats for a week. It is so nice to see them enjoying her visits while we are away, and it's fantastic to trust them with a caring, responsible, dependable lover of animals when we can't be there ourselves. Thank you for giving our O Bros so much love, Betsy!”


“Billy was awesome. My cat was in good hands while I was away—never had to worry. Lots of updates. He stayed a little longer to make sure she was comfortable with him. I would book with him again in a heartbeat.”


“Jessica has been wonderful! She has had many drop in visits with my puppy and is always on time/communicative. She does a great job with my puppy and is always professional. Highly reccomend.”

We are dog-less at the moment, but would love to give your dog the love we have all of ours for so many years. I work full time from home and my wife is a professor, so we have a lot of time at home. Our son is 2, and absolutely adores dogs Whatever the owner needs us to do for the dog, we are happy to. Snuggles, walks, potty and regular feeding schedule is always on the docket

I only work 6 hour days during the week and am available from 8-11 for walking or pet care. My weekends are pretty open and I am very flexible. I like to love on the pets that I care for and spend as much time with them as possible. I love when they sleep in the bed with me but will of course cater to your pets individualized needs and routine!

“She’s the best. Emily really cares about our pets and treats both our home and animals so well. We can really count on her. Absolute professional and highly recommended!”


About: I treat every pet like they’re my own, taking time to understand their unique personality, routines, and needs. I have had many animals of my own my whole life along with pet sitting for many family members, friends, and neighbors. I am a certified veterinary assistant and have worked in a vet office for over a year now and with my hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and other animals, I’m trained to handle everything from shy rescues to high-energy pups. Pet care is a core part of my daily and weekly life — not just a job, but a commitment I truly enjoy. I build my schedule around my clients’ pets to ensure consistency, comfort, and reliability. Caring for pets in their own home keeps their environment consistent and stress-free. I follow your pet’s regular schedule for meals, potty breaks, walks, and medication. I stick to your instructions for house rules, routines, and preferences. I tidy up after myself (and your pet), water plants, bring in mail, and keep your home secure. I provide updates and photos so you know your pet is safe, happy, and getting plenty of attention. Whether in my home or yours, your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities.

“Jessica was great again ! This is the second time we have used her and have no hesitation to use her again.pups were taken care of and she sent updates every day recommend highly !”


About: Hi! I’m Gianna — a lifelong animal lover with a dream of becoming a veterinarian. I’ve grown up around dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities, so I’m confident with everything from playful puppies to senior sweethearts. I offer flexible availability, including walks, drop-ins, overnights, and plenty of cuddle time. Whether your pup needs exercise, company, or just a loving presence while you’re away, I’ll treat them like family. Animals are my passion, and your pet’s comfort and safety always come first! I’m currently a flight attendant but I usually only do day trips so I’m always available after or before work. I know my schedule a head of time so that will never be an issue. I’ve grown up always having dogs and cats but since moving out I don’t have any. So I currently don’t have any animals as of now.

About: I’ve had pets my whole life. I have 2 large super friendly dogs whom I’m obsessed with! It’s their world, I’m just living in it ;) I am a teacher no longer on summer break, so my availability is now mostly weekends. I work for JCPS, so have no issue traveling across the bridge. Available on the weekends, but can discuss week days. I have 2 very friendly dogs that will keep yours company. I will treat your baby like they are my own. I do not have a fenced in yard, so I never let mine out on their own. I have a rescue that I always take out on a leash, because I do not trust him to stay with me. I will also always keep yours on a leash. We go on a long walk in the mornings and evenings, with many potty breaks/short walks throughout the day.

About: I have 3 dogs, 2 Australian Shepherds and 1 Chihuahua. All the pups are 9 years old and love meeting new pup friends. They love to perform tricks and run around the back yard. I am a stay at home mom (but I will not bring them with me) and my husband works remote so I can be flexible. I have trained them to do tricks and have manners. I am also available to let out dogs or take them on walks. My schedule is very flexible. I love all animals and have had dogs all of my life. I like to walk my dogs every day. I am a stay home mom and my husband works remote so I have flexibility in my schedule and the ability to do my services during normal working hours. I prefer to not stay in the home overnight. I will always greet my pups and friends with a friendly smile and loving pets. I will make sure they are fed, have plenty of water and time to play with me. I think walks are important so I will take them on a walk unless told not to.

About: After going through dog training with 4 dogs (and 2 additional in service dog training) as well as volunteering at a cat shelter for 3 years in college, I feel prepared to encounter many pet situations! From administering medication to meeting basic needs and providing lots of love for all ages of animals, I've done it all! First thing in the morning, I walk my velcro dog, Shadow, a loyal lab/border collie/beagle mix for about a mile. When I get home from work, Shadow and his momma, my Sunny Girl, and I eat dinner together before curling up to watch their favorite show, Law & Order: SVU until we fall asleep. Occasionally we snack on cheesesticks or whipped cream together, too! In a client's home, I value following detailed directions to ensure the pet's routine is as close to normal as possible. Their safety is my priority, and I know they may be a bit dysregulated with me taking care of them instead of their normal human! I focus on creating a bond with them through whatever their motivation may be - snacks, positive reinforcement, petting, etc - and will only go for a walk with a secure leash. In the backyard, I'll verify that the gate is secure before heading out! I'm there to do a job, and it's one I take seriously: giving them the best wags-and-purs experience I can until they see their humans again!

I have 3 poodles of my own! and I have also owned rats and hamsters before. I would love to cater to your furry family! I currently work a 9-5 pm at a veterinary hospital.
