1. Darnell M.

“Our cats Gus and Charlie were so happy to see Darnell again, and after a weekend away, we came home to relaxed and well-cared-for kitties. Darnell was an excellent communicator and a delight to work with. I look forward to hiring him to catsit again!”

“Thank you Grace for taking care of Henry for us! We really appreciate your help. You were wonderful to let us know that if we were delayed in returning we should let you know so that you could help out. Much appreciated!”


8. Gina B.
“I have known Gina for 20 years now, and we have always helped each other out with pet sitting and care. She’s an extremely caring person for animals, and genuinely enjoys taking care of others little furry family members. Not only is she extremely responsible as well, she’s gone out of her way to play, and hang out with my pets when I’m away so they don’t feel sad in my absence.”

10. Althea B.

“Two words: the best! Althea was able to help me out on short notice and was exceptional in all regards: checking in with me, going above and beyond for the pet, and making it a painless and easy experience. My dog weighs 130 lbs., so I'm assuming Althea is great with just about any size of pet. If she's available in your area, attempt to book her! Also, she was very flexible with time, respectful and cordial.”


11. Casandra B.

“Cassie is such a sweet person who took amazing care of my two fur babies. I am a travel nurse so I had to leave my dogs home while I traveled away for 5 days. This was the first time and I was so scared to leave my fur babies. Cassie quickly put that fear to ease and met the fur babies before hand. She came by and my husband and I immediately got a great vibe from her. While I was away, Cassie sent me videos and pictures of the dogs. I was always updated and she communicated perfectly. She also took good care of our place. We will definitely be using her again! She is heaven sent. Ps: my dogs loved her!”


12. Joseph B.

“We had a last minute need and Joseph stepped in to help. Each day I received photos and updates. His communication to us was great as was his care of our pup. Will definetly use Joseph again.”


13. Morgan B.

“Morgan is my reliable go-to when I need help looking after my own dogs, and the occasional foster pup. She is always on-time and does a great job, and my dogs are happy to see her!”


14. Jared A.

“Jared is easy to work with and reliable! We always reach out to him first to watch our pups.”

About: My name is Ariana and I’m 22 years old. I’m doing this on the side until my kids go to daycare in the fall, And then I’ll be going back to work full time. I have a 1 1/2 year old and a 2 1/2 year old so the pups must be good with kids. I’ve had German Shepard’s my whole life so I’m used to and comfortable around dogs. I’ve been taking care of pets for years. I absolutely love being around and taking care of dogs no matter how small or big he/she is. I have a lot of availability so i can work with your schedule (: I have plenty of free time at the moment. I just graduated college and not working until the fall. My kids love dogs but they are also very respectful when it comes to giving them space. In my town we have long roads, nearby fields, and trails. They will be so loved and have fun here! I’ll take them for walks, and do baths upon request


16. Hope S.
“H is truly the most incredible dog sitter. She went above and beyond for our beautiful girl Millie. She not only gave her all the cuddles, but took her for long walks & hikes. We came home to a house that was way cleaner than it had been when we left and were surprised with printed out photos of their adventures together while we were away. H is professional, loving, kind, & incredibly caring. She is honest & trustworthy. The care she showed our Millie means so much to us. Anyone who is lucky enough to hire H will not be disappointed. She is a true, true gem. H- thank you for being you & taking such good care of Millie and our home.”

About: Are you looking to go out of town for the weekend or for a weeks vacation, but don't want to stress your pet(s) by boarding them? I would be happy to come care for your furry friends at your home, and am comfortable doing overnight stays. I am very comfortable around all dog breeds and sizes. Have a cat or other family pet that needs care as well? No problem! I'm open to caring for animals other than dogs, too, and would love the opportunity to discuss caring for your pets further. Growing up my family always had dogs and cats around, and we also raised 7 dogs for Guiding Eyes for the Blind. For the past 5 years I've been pet/house sitting for others as a way to spend additional time around animals, and provide families with an alternative to boarding. I am licensed, insured, and bonded, as well as pet CPR/First Aid certified. I have exceptional references, and would be happy to provide those upon request. Thank you for your time and consideration, and I look forward to hearing from you!


20. K F.
About: I have lots of experience with animals of all kinds. I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of all kinds for friends & family since I was very young. I currently work full time during the week & have weekends off. This works perfect to allow me to give adequate potty breaks & lots of attention, with even extra time over the weekend. When caring for your pets in your home, I will aim to maintain the routine they know & are comfortable with. I appreciate information on what they are used to, to allow the experience to be as stress-free as possible for the pets.
