“Miranda was absolutely amazing. She was extremely responsive and so easy to communicate with. She took amazing care of Hank all weekend while we were away - even making him some special frozen treats (he loves ice)! I can’t speak highly enough of Miranda. She sent so many pictures throughout the weekend - which was very much appreciated. We will 100% be using her again!”
“Michelle is the best!! I can’t say enough. She is our regular sitter. I never have to worry about our senior pups or our home when she’s here. Highly recommend her to take care of your fur babies as well!”
“Heidi was fantastic with Quincy! It's so refreshing to work with someone who is not only organized but also makes sure everything is clearly laid out, ensuring everyone is on the same page. She asked great questions to understand Quincy’s needs and gave him all the care and attention he deserved. Heidi provided the perfect amount of updates and even went the extra mile to give Quincy additional stimulation by taking him to one of his favorite walking spots. She truly goes out of her way to understand the dogs she cares for and makes sure their owners feel at ease. It’s been a pleasure working with her!”
“Natasha did a great job taking care of my cat and rescue dog while I was away!”
“Caleb is the best dog sitter we have ever had. Our dogs are big and love to bark at passing cars and can be a bit tough to care for at times and he did an excellent job. I highly recommend him to anyone. He was kind, communicative, compassionate and took excellent care of our home as well. I could not ask for a better sitter.”
About: My family has had dogs all my life, from cocker spaniels to husky mutts to yorkies, and I have been trusted to care for them whenever needed! I also have experience working in the petsmart grooming salon, so it feels like I've met just about every kind of dog out there. Ive been more actively house/pet sitting for a couple years now and all of the pets are as excited to see me as I am them! I'm currently between more official positions, and therefore Im free the majority of the week and most weekends! Even if I were to get a full time position, my evenings and weekends would remain open I love to visit and play with the pets in my care, and Im adept at maintaining their schedules when taking care for a longer period, including outside time, walks, meals, and medications.
“Our kitten Raven (nickname "Mayhem") gave Jorda a run for her money and she v was up to the task! And she gave our boy his daily meds and kept Jelly the food lover with allergies out of the non-allergy food. And left a beautiful cat pod that she crocheted herself!! I could not recommend Jordan more. My babies were happy and well cared for while we were away.”
“Kiara was a blessing! She was so attentive to our two pups. One was somewhat anxious since she'd never stayed anywhere but our home before but after a time she mellowed out and relaxed w Kiara. Our other was able to snuggle on her lap when they weren't out taking walks. She played fetch w them. She sent adorable photos of their day together. We felt secure knowing they were well cared for.”
“Stephanie was wonderful! My pup Winnie just loved cuddling her and she took wonderful care of her while I was gone! Will definitely book again!”
About: I have been around animals my whole life. I have helped my neighbors with their dogs and cats along with having pets of my own. I currently am in between working and have time to care for pets. I love being around animals and ensure they are loved from even strangers. My pets have endless treats and toys they get to indulge in. They are loved endlessly and probably believe (they do) run the house. I couldn’t ask for anything more except maybe a dog of my own to add.
“Sherri is amazing!!! We feel so comfortable going away and leaving our dog in her care!! She sends us thoughtful updates and cute pics of our dog, and she messages us about any questions or concerns. She has great attention to detail, and she takes wonderful care of our home. She makes sure that our dog gets his daily walks and/or backyard exercise and most of all - lots of love! We definitely plan on using Sherri for future dog sitting! I highly recommend her as a dog sitter and a house sitter!!”
About: I am a very active pet owner and pet sitter. As a little boy, I would curl up with my dog on their pet bed and fall asleep with them. I love to play catch and get pets moving. I have really enjoyed playing dog games, such as hide and seek. My skill set is my true love for animals and caring nature. I am hoping that you will allow me to grow in doing what I love. I have an open schedule that can accommodate most any arrangement. I love to exercise, move, and play with all pets. I can work around schedules and help in emergencies. I am local to the area so trust and transparency is important to me. If on a vacation, I will keep up the home with mail collection, trash and recycling, and giving peace of mind that your me will be "dog tired". I have great communication skills and will let you know how your pet child is faring.
About: I’ve had animals in the house my entire life that I’ve cared for- dogs, cats, fish, hamsters, guinea pigs, a bunny, a turtle, and a lizard. I’ve cared for multiple pets of family members, neighbors, and friends, mostly dogs and cats. I’m an elementary teacher off duty for the summer, looking to take care of some animals and get some long walks in the sun during my break from work. I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule right now, so please reach out with any questions. Can’t wait to hear from you! I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule right now. The only times I am currently unavailable on a weekly basis would be Tuesday afternoons as I’m taking a college course during that time (2-4pm). Other than that, there are only a few days this summer I will be unavailable that I can message you about. Please let me know any rules or requirements for caring for your pet. I am available for multiple services, walking, pet sitting, potty breaks, etc., and will follow your guidelines for how to care for your pet during that service. If you have a specific requirement please contact me to explain and I will get back to you as soon as possible about your request.
“Madeline was great with our two large dogs! Easy communication, super smooth process.”
“In addition to Kristi helping my newly adopted cat adapt, Kristi helped me as I had broken my leg just before the trip. She took care of my house and the cat with equal diligence.”

About: I've raised 2 daughters to adulthood and 7 cats over the years. I've dog sat for neighbors and answered local ads for sitting/walks. I have experience giving cats medicine and cleaning up messes.I love animals! I'm currently a stay home Mom looking for a flexible income while getting excerise and being my own boss. I use to own a business so I'm organized, responsible and dependable. I currently have 2 cats who I feed daily, one gets medicine mixed into her dinner wet food and she's on a diet. My other cat is free fed dry food all day because she has a fast metabolism and is a perfect weight, plus she gets wet food for dinner. Their litter boxes get cleaned every other day. So, I'm use to special feeding needs of fur babies.
About: I have two dogs of my own at home, whom I care for and love deeply. I have pet-sat for friends, neighbors, and family for many years. I love animals and will love yours like my own! I am on summer break right now, so I have lots of free time! I can come whenever you need me, as long as you let me know at least two days in advance. If I am watching your pet, I will be incredibly respectful of them and your home. I will be responsible and considerate regarding any requests you have.
About: I’ve been taking care of my dogs since I was 6 years old. From teaching them tricks to playing fetch whenever they want. I love when a dog expresses its energetic personality because that’s what makes them who they are and they shouldn’t get in trouble for being themselves. I will match a dogs energy with even more because they act as a best friend. I enjoy spending my time with animals because they’re better than humans and just have the best personality. I don’t currently have a job right now but if I do get one it’d be during the summer time during the mornings. So the evenings would be 100% free. But as of right now I am free all day once I graduate high school in a week. I’ll be by the pets side the whole time during the visit when it comes to cuddling with the pet or going on a walk. I love playing fetch as well and just being outside is also a thing I enjoy. My dog uses puppy pads but we have a lot of land so we take him on walks frequently.
