“Avery was amazing!!! She stayed in our home and took such good care of Zeus! He looked so happy and she gave us daily updates! I had no worries while on vacation! We will definitely use Avery again!”
“Samantha was so great, she sent us regular updates and pictures of our pups and was happy to accommodate their schedule. We have four, so we’re extra grateful for the attention and care. Would highly recommend!”
“Dana did a wonderful job in my home with 3 dogs. She communicated details of her care and sent numerous photos and videos. I know how much my dogs loved her because they kept looking for her in the house and garage. She also kept the house clean, the bed linens washed and the dog poop picked up. Great job! I will have you come again. Moose, Rocky and Bear miss you. Terri”
“Megan house sat for us and it she was awesome! Came home, house was as we left it. The boys seemed very happy and she was sending frequent pics with updates. Will rebook when we need a sitter again!”
About: Ever since my husband and I got our own dog we just love the idea of taking care of other pets. I understand how it feels when you go places or on vacation or whatever and you cannot take your furbabies with you. This reason is why we love taking care of our friends pets when they are away. It will ONLY be myself working and dog sitting. My husband is not part of this, he has his own things to do, and he watches our own furbaby. I am a full-time student and I only have 2 days out of 7 that are in person. I am flexible most of the days. Oh my boy is spoiled but not too spoiled. I always groom my dog by myself every other day. We put him first because hes our furbaby (even though he is 6 years old). We take him on walks twice a day for 15-30mins. I always offer to groom my friends pets that we look after; only if their furbaby allows it. For my friends with cats, I usually pet the cats after I take care of their dishes (food&water) only if they allow it.
About: I have lived with animals my entire life. Growing up I had a wide variety of animals. I have had experience caring for large and small dogs alike, senior dogs and cats. I have experience administering medication to many of these animals as well. I recently moved from the Midwest where I was a volunteer search and rescue member- closely working with the search dog teams and assisting as a handler as needed. I have experience working with these dogs in and out of the field. I have also trained in K-9 first aid. I work evenings M-F. My mornings and early afternoon are relatively free during the week. And I absolutely love going to visit some fur babies in the evening on my lunch break, or late at night visits after my shift. Currently, I'm fully available on the weekends for pet care as well. I can administer medications as needed. Your pet's safety and health are my number 1 priority. I can clean up after your pet as needed. Playtime, potty breaks, and snacks as well! And I will give them all the attention.
“We had such a wonderful experience with Whitney. This was our first time leaving our dogs while we went on a trip, and she made us feel completely comfortable from the start. She took great care of our dogs, including our one who can be leash aggressive. We really appreciated her patience and attention she gave to their individual needs. She was kind, communicative, and kept us updated. She treated our dogs wonderfully and we will be reaching out to her in the future!”
About: I’ve loved dogs my whole life and have grown up caring for them, from playful puppies to sweet seniors. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every dog like they’re my own. I’m currently a part time nail tech and want to fill my time doing something I love. And if I can fill my spare time by spending it with animals I think my life would be complete. In a client’s home, I follow their usual routines for feeding, walks, and play to keep pets happy and stress-free. Either way, I give each pet my full attention and care as if they were my own.
About: My earliest memories are of playing with dogs. As an adult I love my kitties and will care for any furry, scaley or feathered friends. Every day I care for my dog and 4 cats. The trip to the nearby park is a routine where I find refuge. I have flexibility with my work schedule and can make most times fit. I have a fenced yard where pets can roam free without fear of antagonism or being set loose in the neighborhood. I give each memeber of the clan daily attention and individual care.
“Nichole was great with our pets and stays in great communication. She helped identify a water leak while pet sitting too and really helped us out. Thanks Nichole!”
About: Hi! I’m a former special education teacher now PhD student studying psychology with a lifelong love for animals. I just recently moved to Logan and would love to meet your pet! I’ve cared for a wide range of pets from cats and dogs of all sizes to turtles and even a tarantula! I take pride in building trust with every animal I meet and have experience with puppies, kittens, and senior dogs alike. Your pets will be treated like family, and I’m happy to accommodate any special requests to make sure they feel safe and loved. I start my PhD program at the end of August so my schedule may change but right now I just moved to Logan and my schedule is wide open! I’ll make sure your home stays safe and secure, all accidents or messes are cleaned up, and your pet has everything they need to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m also happy to send pictures and videos for your peace of mind while you’re away!
“Was willing to do a quick meet prior since our dog River has anxiety. She loved and took care of our fur babies while also taking care of the home. Thor especially loved the ride in the car. She asked for clarification when needed, sent updates, and followed instructions”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and currently volunteer at the humane society. I have a dog and cat of my own but I would love to take care of your fur babies as well. Any animals big or small are welcome and I will love them like they’re my own. I currently work full time and I’m in school part time starting this fall. I’m usually available Friday-Sunday but if Thursdays are needed I can see if I can help. I have a dog and a cat so I’m unable to have other animals stay in my home but I am more than happy to drop in or walk your dogs for you. My dog loves other dogs but if you’d prefer your pup to walk alone that’s no big deal!
“Sabrina was so sweet! She watched my three month old puppy on such short notice and did a great job. They went to the park, played, and then my pup took a long nap. Would definitely recommend her!”
About: I will care for your pets as if they were my own. I've cared for a very elderly dog as well as young puppis and everything in between. I have done a lot of training with all of my dogs. My husband and I are both home all day long, so I am available to watch your dogs while my husband can tend to my dogs. I can coordinate my daily life around pet sitting. I will keep your dog/cat safe while they are in my care! I will follow all your instructions for walking and potty breaks. I will never let them be unattended.

As a pet owner himself, he understands each animal's unique needs and personality and always goes above and beyond to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved.

Jared S.
“Jared is amazing with animals—my cats adore him. He has cared for my cats with incredible patience, kindness, and attention to detail. One of my cats, Ash, is a little picky, but he’s totally obsessed with him—probably because Jared brings him fresh chicken every time he visits! I always get the best photo updates when I’m away—he somehow manages to capture all their goofy, sweet moments. He also has the sweetest pup, Murphy, who he regularly takes on scenic river jaunts that would make any dog (or human!) envious. If you’re looking for someone who will love and care for your pets like they’re his own, you've found him.”
