“Leah took really good care of my two dogs while I was out celebrating my birthday all day . She made me feel at ease by sending updates as well as pictures. Both of the dogs were both grinning from ear to ear from the pictures she sent us. Thank you!”
2. Emily K.
“Emily did a great job with my pack . Even handled the unpleasant task of cleaning up after a sick dog. I was very comfortable leaving them with her for the first time. They seemed really comfortable with her and the house was in great shape when we got home. I would book her again!”

“Jennifer has cared for my 11 year old German Shepherd for many years. Kya has cancer and underwent a major surgery, Jenn was fantasic with the aftercare when i couldnt be there.

About: I fell in love with animals at a young age when I bonded tightly with the old family cat at the time and was devastated when she passed. A few years later I got a cat I could call my own, who is a little more aloof but just as lovey when he wants to be. We also have a mini chihuahua who recently has claimed me as his "hooman" and who I love to play and roughhouse with. I have also been gaining a lot of care experience with the TCHS, where I volunteer at most weekends, which has been teaching me a lot about different animal personalities and the best way to care for the animals present there. I am sitting because I truly love animals and prefer earning money for college and drum corps doing something I love. I work part time at an office job from 9-3:30 on Mon-Thurs, so those hours are set in stone. When I can, I volunteer at TCHS from 10-4 Fri-Sun, but I can certainly petsit during those times if need be. I can even petsit on weeknights and evenings after my office job. I will not accept pet dropoffs at my house since we have two other pets there already, and I'm certain that my family would not be pleased if I brought over another animal. I would do most of anything you would ask me to do to care for your pet. I'm not so experienced on giving medication, orally or intravenously, but I would be willing to learn to keep you worry-free. How I play and stimulate your pet depends largely on your pet's personality and preferences. My cat mainly loves to lay around and cuddle, but also loves to play fetch with yellow NERF dart balls! And the chihuahua loves to rough house play, so I constantly adapt to their wants and preferences. I have a more relaxed and chilled personality so if your pets don't like too much movement or rambunctiousness, then we'll get along together perfectly! I like to give cats and dogs a break from louder, more energetic folks and be a safe, calm haven for them.
7. Tess J.
“Tess has been watching my 6 year old Lab since he was a puppy. He absolutely loves her! She takes him on walks, hiking, swimming, and car rides, all the things he loves. He also has seizures and needs to take medicine twice a day, Tess is really good about giving him his meds. I never worry my dog is with her, I know he’s in the best hands possible. I highly recommend Tess, you will not be disappointed!”
8. Candis P.
“I've had Candis watch my animals while I traveled - my menagerie included my two dogs (one of them a senior with medication), and a sun conure. I was thrilled to witness Candis provide such gentle, intuitive care for ALL my animals of varying species! The animals love her, and it shows in their interactions together.”
9. Chelsie M.
“I recommend chelsie very highly, she takes wonderful care of our dogs ,so caring and loving with them and they love whether we go for a weeks vacation or just a couple days.. we can trust her to care for our dogs.”
10. Maddy S.

11. Shane S.
“Thank you for caring for our pets again! Shane is the best! We never worry about anything. He gave meds to our one cat twice a day with no issues.”
12. Oneisha W.
About: I grew up on a farm! Of course we had farm animals but we also had a cat, a dog ( a very energetic Golden Retriever) and hamsters as pets. I’m free Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. I could briefly help out on Saturday and Sundays after 5:30 pm. Tuesdays and Thursdays are unavailable due to school. I love interacting with pets and allowing them feel comfortable and cared for. Animals pick up on energy too! The right connections are meant to flow naturally!
13. John B.
“John is a great dog watcher. He has two dogs of his own as well. He’s very attentive to the dogs needs. He takes them on walks and feeds them and give them water as needed. He plays with them and loves on them.”

About: Hi! My husband (Timothy) and I currently have 2 dogs, 2 cats, 2 rabbits and a few fish tanks. We both have grooming experience with dogs and have grown up with animals. We have some personal experience in training dogs. I currently work part-time, and my husband gets off at 1pm, so we will have plenty of time available to spend with your pets.

About: It’s DOGgone bad you’re away, but hey I’m here to stay! Hi there! My name’s Alexis, I'm looking for a job pet sitting, whether that's while you and your family are on vacation or while you're away on the job. I love animals and I'm used to being around them, taking care of everything from goats and ducks to snakes and gerbils. I love animals of all kinds! Your kitties and puppies will be in good hands with me! If you have other animals that’s fine as well, just please let me know ahead of time so I can plan accordingly. When in contact, please let me know of your babies names and what kind of toys they enjoy playing with (and if those toys have “names” as well). I look forward to taking care of your babies! I currently am mom to two kitties but grew up taking care of all sorts of animals. I’m comfortable waking up early or staying late/ overnight to accommodate your critters 🥰 The cats run the house here we just live in it ☺️ The animals get played with multiple times daily to keep them active and healthy. Comfortable on a free feeding and set time schedule as I’m up from about 6am-12am daily! We enjoy being outdoors and hiking so if you have an excited pup we’ll help out!
