“Bonnie was so great!!! It was the first time leaving our dog home for a weekend and she took such great care of him. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to watch their dog. She is exceptional!!”


About: I have an associates degree in Veterinary Technology and worked in the veterinary field for 5 years. During that time I would often watch coworker's and friend's pets including both cats and dogs. I am experienced with giving medications and caring for senior pets who may need a little extra help and care! I am currently working part-time with a schedule that changes week to week. I am always available before 8am and after 7:30pm as well as most weekends. In all of my past pet sitting gigs, I have always tried my best to respect other's homes and traditions. I am very flexible and will always respect any and all wishes when it comes to your home an beloved pets!
About: I have a family dog, and I have loved growing up with her. They are wonderful companions. I have been pet sitting for a family for over 3 years now, and I would love to do more! I am working part-time, so I have plenty of time to hang out and help with pets! Most weekdays/weekends, I am free for your pet needs. I am good at working with both cats and dogs of any size. Just let me know if there is anything specific I need to do!
“Rachel did a great job taking care of our dog Frankie. She did a great job communicating with us when she did her drop-in visits. I will definitely recommend Rachel to my friends.”

“She was amazing with Beans. Love the daily pictures. Super thoughtful, brought in some packages that were left out in the rain for us. Very happy with the service.”

“Let my boy Odie out and fed him when I had some early and long mornings at work! Great communication and able to accommodate an early drop in time. Will definitely book with her again!”


About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and the responsibility I bring to every pet I care for. I’ve grown up around pets and currently have a rescue terrier mix named Benji, along with three cats, so I understand that every animal has their own personality and needs. I’ve spent a lot of time dog sitting, walking dogs, and caring for pets for family members, including my grandparents. I’m also currently helping train a puppy, which has given me experience with patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs, and I’m happy to follow any routines or special instructions to keep your pet comfortable. I treat every pet like they’re my own and focus on making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. With plenty of trails near me, I can also provide fun, active walks for dogs who enjoy getting outside and exploring. Pet care fits well into my schedule because I have a flexible routine and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I currently work at a dog-friendly business where I interact with dogs regularly, and I make time throughout my week to provide reliable care for pets. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week, including mornings, evenings, and weekends. I can also accommodate overnight stays when needed. Whether your pet needs a quick check-in, a long walk, or extra attention while you’re away, I’m committed to making sure they receive the care, exercise, and companionship they deserve. I always strive to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and any specific instructions. I know that keeping pets on their usual routine helps reduce stress and keeps them happy. I also make sure pets get plenty of attention, affection, and exercise based on their individual needs and energy levels. Whether that’s going for walks, playing with toys, or simply spending quality time together, I treat every pet as if they were my own. Communication is important to me, so I provide updates and photos to help owners feel confident that their pets are receiving excellent care while they’re away.
“Alexis is the best and worked really hard to make Walter feel comfortable, I will definitely be using her again. Let me tell you a story. One morning, Alexis was checking on my dog. She accidentally locked herself out of my house. Bummer, right? I was really mad for a while. Not Alexis' fault, since I thought my roommate wasn't going to be home but he actually was and locked her out without realizing it. Anyway, instead of leaving my dog in the yard and leaving, she stayed with my dog until I came home from camping that afternoon, gave him water, walked him extra, and kept him from freaking out. She really treated my dog like her own.”
“Paige was very prompt and communication was great. My shy cat even sat on her lap for pets, so she definitely is the right fit for us. The dogs did well too. We will have her back.”

“Thank you Dylan for always doing such an awesome job with my kitties!! In the photos you take both Frankie and Rosie look like they’re having such a fun play time with you!! It’s very comforting knowing they are getting such great care!! You are the best!! Thanks a million!!”

About: I grew up with dogs, mostly yellow Labrador retrievers. I also had a dog of my own through college and lived with 3 dogs for several years, so I am comfortable with feeding, walking, etc. I am working part-time in the mornings, so I have full afternoons and weekends available for pet care. My children are also with me at all times. I have a fenced in yard for safe playing outdoors, and two children who enjoy playing with dogs, so we can keep your dog safe and entertained
About: Weather your looking for a dog sitter or some walks here and there i’m your girl — I’ve grown up with animals all my life and would love to have your fur friend for as long as you need! I’m currently in school for dental hygiene and currently work as an orthodontic dental assistant— Always home on the weeksdays after work and on the weekends I can easily crate your dog if needed. I have a friendly loving spring spaniel who loves having friends stay. We love long walks after work and some play time in the backyard.
About: I have been a dog owner for over 50 years and understand first hand the importance and peace -of -mind that comes from having a trusted provider care for my pet when I am working or on vacation. I am an active senior and love having a dog to walk and for just plain old companionship. I have a Havanese/Shih Tzu (23 pounds) who is very sweet and good with other dogs. He likes to play and is even willing to share his bed with visiting dogs. Since I am retired I have a flexible schedule and live near a large city lake with a walking path. And if your dog has special needs I am certainly able and willing to accommodate. Please feel free to contact me with specific questions or concerns.
About: My family and friends have depended on me for many years to take care of their cats and dogs. I am a reliable pet-sitter who loves animals. I work full-time from my home Monday through Thursday and can adjust my schedule accordingly to meet the needs of my clients. My availability Friday through Sunday is very flexible. I do not have a dog, but have walked/taken care of dogs of my family and friends. I have a cat who runs my household. I have had cats in the past with specific medical and dietary needs (diabetes requiring insulin shots, kidney disease requiring a special diet and have administered medicine numerous times over the past 28 years).

About: For my first birthday, my parents' landlord gave them a puppy to give to me as a present. Since then, I've rarely been without at least one dog or cat companion. I've cared for dozens of pets for friends and family over the years: dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, and even the occasional reptile. I'm ready to give your pet the care and attention they deserve! I’m retired, so I have plenty of time to devote to your pet! I’m available both weekdays and weekends. Morning, afternoon, or evening, whatever works best for you and your pet! I have tons of experience with dogs and cats and can follow any directions and honor any requests you have so that you can feel certain your pet is getting safe, loving, and quality care.

Ingrid completed 3 drop in visits for my old kitty cat named Phantom. She sent me detailed updates and photos everyday. Phantom has an issue with going potty outside the box and Ingrid replaced the per pads, cleaned up a kitty mess in the kitchen and I came home to a clean litter box. I would highly recommend Ingrid!
