“Melissa was so communicative and helpful throughout the whole process! One of our cats had been sick about a week before our trip, and I felt super comfortable leaving her with Melissa. I appreciated the regular updates and photos!”
“My husband and I booked Erica and Thomas to watch our two cats while we are away for a few days, and they were wonderful! We loved receiving updates and photos of our cats- our cats hid on the first day, but we still received a detailed update about them and their care. Erica and Thomas gave us peace of mind while we were away, and we truly felt that our cats were safe and well cared for in our absence. They were also nice enough to bring our mail inside and empty our humidifier, which we really appreciated. We will absolutely be booking Erica and Thomas to watch our cats again!”
“Such a wonderful experience having Heather take care of my cat while I was away. She clearly communicated each day and sent lots of great photos with detailed updates. I had no worries that my cat was in good hands. I can’t recommend her enough and will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Terry is the best pet sitter I have ever had! She writes detailed drop in reports, asks questions to ensure my cats get the absolute best care, and sends lots of photos. I know my cats and house are in safe and capable hands when Terry is doing visits. We love having Terry take care of our cats! She really goes above and beyond! Terry is wonderful!”
“Sara was incredibly professional and appeased all my needy cat mom wants. I so appreciate her time and am so happy to have found a kind and reliable sitter for our cats when we’re out of town.”
“The drop in visits for my cats were greatly appreciated. Cayton reported issues with behavior when they came up, took pictures and all around took good care of the cats.”
“She was very accommodating for my 2 finicky cats! She took the time to look for my shy cat in the house to feed him his treat and gave me clear notes and pictures each visit.”
About: We have two Grandogs which we are so in love with, however we don’t do any training. We’re mostly in charge of feeding, walks, fetch and love! My schedule varies week to week and allows plenty of time to care for your pet. Each visit will ensure they have the necessities they need as well as lots of playing, pets and purrs! Kitties will be checked on at each visit to make sure they have plenty of food and water. In addition to their basic needs, they will be observed to ensure there are no obvious injuries (limping, wounds, etc). Any concerns will immediately be reported to Parents.
“Carolyn was so kind and fun to work with. She left hilarious and detailed reports and selfies with our kitties and took extra care to follow our specific needs to keep them separated. She was very respectful and caring during our meet and greet and communicative during the planning.”
About: I have been house sitting overnight since I was 14. I have experience working with dogs, cats, mice, and flying squirrels. Believe it or not, I have taken care of dogs who were indoor-trained only.I am also an experienced dog walker- not just with my own dogs but with friends' dogs that I've loved as my own. I will be working part time over the summer (8-12 Monday-Thursday) so I will have afternoons and nights available during the week. I also have most weekends free. I abide by the safety precautions at the homes I stay at (fences, ring cameras, etc). When I stay with indoor cats, I take extra precautions when leaving the house to make sure the cats don't escape.
About: I ensure the highest quality care for my own pets, and I will make it my priority to do the same for yours! As long as I can remember I’ve had pets, and they’ve always been a passion of mine. I work full time from home during the week until 5pm! I am able to provide drop in visits in the evenings and then multiple times a day on weekends. I am unable to accept pets in my own home at the moment, however what ever you need done within your own home I will make sure is done correctly and in a timely manner!
About: Hi there! I’m a passionate dog lover with a heart for every wagging tail I meet. Whether it’s a playful pup or a senior snuggler, I treat every dog like family—because that’s exactly what they deserve. I’m known for being reliable, calm, and endlessly patient. I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds and temperaments, and I pride myself on creating a safe, loving environment where they can relax and thrive. From daily walks to belly rubs and bedtime routines, I make sure every moment is filled with care and joy. Pet parents love my daily “pupdates,” photo check-ins, and attention to detail. I follow instructions to the letter, keep things tidy, and always go the extra mile—whether that means brushing fur, teaching a new trick, or simply sitting quietly with a nervous pup until they feel at home. If you’re looking for a sitter who’s not just dependable but genuinely devoted to your dog’s happiness, I’d love to meet you and your furry friend I'm currently working part time so I have a lot of availability. My full time position is being a mom to two animal loving boys and a dog mama to our Lily At home, Lily has free range to explore. She is the most loving and easygoing dog and LOVES new friends. I follow instructions to a T and would only care for your dog in a space that you feel safe with.
“Sophie was a reliable and efficient cat sitter. I appreciated all of the photos she sent me, not only documenting her tasks but making me comfortable that they were indeed receiving good care. I would strongly recommend Sophie.”
About: As an animal lover with two pets of my own, I absolutely love meeting new furry friends!

I am happy to do short walks and check-ins or to stay over in your house with your pet. I make my own schedule for work, so I am extremely flexible! I know how important it is for your pets to be happy and healthy, and I love being able to take care of them when you’re not available. I can’t wait to get to know you and your pets! I have a very flexible schedule, and plenty of time to care for your pets, whether that be check-ins or staying at your home! I am happy to work with whatever's most convenient to you. I will make sure to take care of all of your pet's needs as well as keep them company and give them lots of love and attention!
“Emily was great! We did a meet and greet before the day of the check-in to make sure Maple (our dog) could warm up and be comfortable with her. She sent us pictures of Maple during the check-in and let us know Maple was behaved on her walk. We will definitely use Emily again when the opportunity presents! Thank you so much Emily!!!”
