“Loved Anita and so did our dogs! We have a dog in heart failure who is on meds twice daily and Anita had no issues. We will absolutely have her over again! Thank you. Our house looked so wonderful too!”

“Mallory did a great job with Ginger - they connected immediately! Mallory was prompt, kind, asked great questions, and is confident and trustworthy. We will be booking her again and again! It's a huge relief knowing Ginger is in great hands.”


About: I have been helping care for my beagle, Chance, for 9 years. I have taken care of dogs while babysitting. I know how to prepare food, control a tugger of a dog on walks, and give pets the love they deserve. My own beagle is somewhat disabled with full use in only 3 legs. My experience is in dogs, but I also love kitties. I am available to for work Wednesdays, Fridays, and weekends all day. Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday I have an internship until 3pm. Thursdays are available from 4pm-midnight. Monday and Tuesday are available from 4pm-6pm. All care will be done within clients house, with the exceptions of walks or dog parks. I am also available to drive your fur babies if necessary. I will always check the water dish and feed on time.
“Brittany took good care of Ozzy and made sure he had plenty of playtime and attention during her visit. Communication was clear, and everything went smoothly overall. I would consider booking her again!”

About: As a dog mom of three very different pups—a goofy cuddle bug, a squirrel-chasing chatterbox, and a calm, loyal companion—I truly understand that every dog has their own personality and needs. What sets me apart is my ability to adapt my care to each dog’s unique energy level, quirks, and routine. I have experience with senior dogs, stubborn breeds, and high-energy pups, and I’m especially great with food-motivated dogs (because let’s be honest—treats are love!). Whether your pup needs a playmate, a cuddle buddy, or a calm presence, I’m here to make them feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. I also have experience with medication administration, basic training reinforcement, and helping dogs feel comfortable in new environments. Your pet won’t just be watched—they’ll be cared for like family. Pet care is a natural fit in my life because I’m already surrounded by dogs and love spending time with them! I work full time, but I’m looking to do pet care part time—and I have flexibility in my current schedule that allows me to make arrangements as needed. Whether it’s early morning walks, evening drop-ins, or weekend stays, I’m happy to work with pet parents to find a routine that works for everyone. Caring for animals brings me joy, and I’m excited to welcome more furry friends into my weekly routine! I provide pet care exclusively in my clients' homes to ensure each pet stays comfortable in their own environment and to avoid any stress from introducing them to my three resident dogs. I’m respectful of routines and will follow all care instructions closely—whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, medication, or cuddle time. I make it a priority to keep your pet safe, happy, and loved while you're away, and I always provide updates so you can feel confident they’re in good hands.

About: I have been taking care of all kinds of pets ever since I was a young girl. Whether that consisted of a quick walk around the neighborhood, or an overnight stay while an owners away, I have a lot of past experience, taking care of each animal in their needs. I see each pet as an individual, as their needs may differ from others. My number one priority is making sure that all pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable. Pets come first always! I will make it a priority to make sure that I am available to be with any pet at any time. I can happily create a safe environment for different pet's needs. I believe spending 1 on 1 time is very important when making a pet feel comfortable, and most importantly loved.
“Lauren takes great care of our pets and our home. We have two dogs and two cats and it is a huge relief to feel comfortable leaving them with someone in their own home vs boarding at a vet or kennel. Lauren is very responsive and sends us photos of the crew so we know they are safe and happy while we are gone.”


“Brayden did a great job. He was easy to communicate with, was familiar with our training collar, and was able to help when we made a very last minute trip. Our dog is relatively low-maintenance, but Brayden went above and beyond what we asked by taking him on walks in the evening when he was less likely to encounter other dogs (he is dog reactive). Thank you!”

“Christina was outstanding with our two cats and dog she took great care of them, loved on them, removed a few ticks (wooded lot) and sent plenty of photos to show us all was A-OK! She is a fantastic carer for animals. We will be asking her back!”

“Corrinn did a great job! She provided updates often and seemed to really bond with my kitties. I have 4 senior cats that have special needs and I felt very at ease with them in her care. They are very routine orientated and Corrinn didn’t miss a beat with the feeding and medicine schedules. I would definitely rebook and recommend her.”


“We couldn’t be happier with the care Kathleen gave our pups! She treated Franklin and Wilson like her own, kept us updated with sweet photos, and made sure every detail was handled while we were away. On top of that, we came home to a house just as clean as we left it — she even set out our garbage bins and started the laundry, which was such a thoughtful touch. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing both our dogs and our home were in such good hands. We’ll absolutely be booking with her again!”

“Noah was an amazing dog sitter. Such a nice guy, he kept us informed of our two pups well being. He was able to stay with our pups during the night. As most of us are aware pups are needy like five year old children. Noah took care of their needs perfectly send photo updates. I think the dogs actually missed him when he left. We would definitely hire him again. Five stars.”


“Ashely was incredible!!! She gave great updates and was very easy to communicate with. My dog loved her! She also took fantastic care of my apartment while I was gone. I will for sure be booking with Ashley again! Thanks for everything Ashley!!!”


“We consider ourselves very lucky to have found Ashley on such short notice ahead of the holidays. Our dates were in flux and we couldn't book as far in advance as we would have liked. I was VERY anxious booking someone new for a full week (as our normal sitter was not available) especially given we have a senior cat that requires regular meds, but Ashley did everything in her power to make this paranoid cat mom feel at ease! She stopped by for a meet and greet ahead of the booking. She sent loads of pictures and updates, including regular updates on how my senior boy was doing taking his meds. Both cats seemed very comfortable with her as evidenced by the snuggles my senior cat gave and the very limited number of hisses from our spicy girl. When we got home, the house was in impeccable shape and Ashley even brought in our mail/packages, which I greatly appreciated! We will definitely be rebooking with Ashley next time we need someone to watch the buddies!”

“Kayla was great with my older dog. She made Sadie feel comfortable immediately and gained her trust to administer her needed eye medications. I would definitely book her again in the future!”

“Awia is fantastic. Very considerate of our home and a warm and loving caretaker for our three dogs and bearded dragon! Sent pictures regularly and we were able to enjoy our vacation knowing everyone was in good hands. She is unflappable. We will definitely hire her again!”

“Faith was a life saver! She took great care of our dog Chloe while we were on vacation. When our flights got interrupted and we had to come home a day late she was able to come back and take care of Chloe again that night and the next morning! Whew! Will definitely use her again!”

“Jamie is awesome! She took such great care of our dog and cat while we were away for a few days. I appreciated all of the photos and videos she sent us and I could tell our pets were so well taken care of. I will definitely be asking Jamie to watch the pets again and cannot recommend her enough!”
