About: I’ve been a pet and animal owner my entire life. We have 3 young kids who love to play and one energetic 4 year old dog who also loves to play, so your pet would get a lot of play time at this house! I have lots of availability this summer, so reach out to me for specifics. Once fall hits and I’m back at school, I’ll be available for weekends. We have one friendly dog to keep yours company. Our yard is not fenced in, but we take frequent walks throughout the day. Our dog sleeps upstairs in the bedroom with us, but we do have a crate available if needed.

“Stephen is a great pet sitter who looked after our beloved friend! We had a good opinion of him right away when we met him. He is very nice and pleasant, and he was excellent with Snowy! When we arrived to pick him up, he was calm and joyful. During Snowy's visit, Stephen sent us pictures of Snowy having fun, which was wonderful. I look forward to connecting with Stephen again in the future!! Thanks for doing such an excellent job; keep it up!!”

“Bev is amazing! She went above and beyond to take care of our Pitbull rescue. Our dog is prone to lots of anxiety and stress but Bev made sure that Pepper got meals when he wasn't eating kibble and provided a safe environment for him to enjoy his stay. I can't describe how much it means to us to have someone be able to take care of our high threshold rescue and Bev was exceptional in communication, interactions, and handling of our dog.”

“Lily had such a great time with Sarah and her puppy Benny! I felt very comfortable leaving Lily with Sarah while we were away for 5 days. She was clearly well taken care of. Their backyard is perfect for dogs to be able to play safely. Sarah kept us updated with messages and fabulous pictures of the pups together. We will definitely rebook with her in the future!”

About: Your dog is going to have a good time with me because I really enjoy time with them, they make my life better every single day. In my opinion the safest way to know the love is sharing time with dogs, they always let you know how happy they are to have to near, they just are always good and better for our life with the hability to change a bad day in a few minutes with some with some licks and barks from them. Dogs are love, Joy, loyalty for everybody around the world. Undoubtedly! I am 100% sure about it. Let me be happy with your dog too :) I will be so glad I am a part time employee, so I have always some time to take care of your dog when you are busy and need some help with your fur friend I have an spacious home with one dog and always door open to receive your dog when you need help taking care of him or her

About: I've lived with and taken care of dogs since I was 11 years old. Starting off in apartments where they needed to be walked. I've had my own dogs for the past 16 years. From puppies to seniors on daily medications, I've taken care of it all with my own doggos. We recently lost our doggy siblings, Tegan and Sara in May and July 2022 at 15.5 years old. We currently have a 6 month old rescue named Oswald. I love all dogs! I do not breed discriminate! I live on 3/4 of an acre with a 5' chain link fence surrounding the back yard. I also work from home, so I'm always here. With your permission, I may even take your pups on adventures while in my care! We do have a cat, but she owns the 2nd floor of our house (2 spare bedrooms), so it will not affect your pups stay as we will stay on the first floor. I work from home 9-5:30 M-F. Your baby will get to go out whenever needed in my fenced yard and I will give them love in small breaks during my own work day. They will not spend their days in a crate as I am here to keep an eye on them. I have a fenced yard. I do have a very dog and person friendly pup of my own who will be happy to play with your pup, too, as his favorite place is the dog park. We have few stairs that need to be climbed, 1-3 off our deck (we have a few entrances on the deck) that can be adjusted by closing deck doors as needed for seniors.

She gave him lots of love, paid close attention to his needs, and treated him so well. She also kept me updated every day with adorable photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It felt so reassuring knowing Riott was with someone who genuinely cared about him and knew how to take care of him. I will definitely book with Katarina again!”

About: Born and raised in a family of passionate pet sitters, I've honed my skills in dog sitting from an early age. With a background of caring for Newfoundlands, cats, and my own furry friend, I bring a wealth of experience and genuine love for animals to every pet sitting assignment. From leisurely strolls to cozy cuddle sessions, I prioritize the happiness and well-being of every dog in my care.

During the school year, I’m available mornings, midafternoons, evenings, and weekends, allowing me to provide dependable and consistent care whenever needed. As a pet sitter, I prioritize creating a comfortable and safe environment for the animals in my care. I ensure they receive personalized attention and follow any specific instructions provided by the client regarding feeding schedules, medication, exercise routines, and any other special needs. I maintain open communication with the client, providing regular updates and photos to offer peace of mind while they're away. Additionally, I'm attentive to the home's security and cleanliness, respecting the client's space as if it were my own.

About: I'm a lifelong animal lover and proud pet parent to four adorable cats and two kind-hearted, animal-loving children. Growing up, my home was always filled with furry, feathered, and scaly friends — from my loyal German Shepherd to curious hamsters, chirpy parakeets, gentle iguanas, and, of course, lots of sweet kitties. With a lifetime of hands-on experience and a deep respect for all creatures, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pets like family. Whether it's a weekend getaway or a long vacation, you can relax knowing your pets are in loving, experienced hands. I am a teacher, and will be home for the summer beginning mid June and going through late August. My availability this summer will be quite open. I am a dedicated, special education teacher, who would love nothing more than to take care of your pet’s needs in the evenings and on the weekends during the school year. During the summer, I am available mornings, afternoons, and evenings to care for your fur babies. We currently have four indoor only cats, who are comfortable with respectful dogs. I am trustworthy, respectful, honest, and always strive to do the right thing. I am someone you can count on to provide care either in your home or mine for your beloved pets.

“Sabrina is the best! She introduced my timid Elvis to her 2 little dogs and they became fast friends. She was very concerned Elvis wouldn't eat, so she offered to cook him some chicken. After a walk in the woods, she found a tick on him and pulled it out. She sent me pictures of the dogs playing together. My favorite was of him cuddling up to her. I will definitely ask her to watch my baby again.”

About: With over 10 years of experience caring for my own pets, I bring a genuine love and understanding of animals to every visit. I adore small dogs especially chihuahuas and currently have two of my own, along with a cat. I’m attentive, reliable, and committed to making sure your pets feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I work from home most of the week, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. I take frequent breaks to go outside, enjoy fresh air, and spend time with the pets—whether that’s relaxing on the porch or letting them get some exercise and playtime. I have a spacious yard where pets can enjoy fresh air and explore. While the yard is not fenced, all pets will always be safely supervised and kept on a leash when outside to ensure their safety at all times. Creating a secure, comfortable, and stress-free environment is always my top priority.

Shannon was really great with our dog. She listens to their needs, is home most of the time and goes above and beyond to be sure they feel comfortable. We’ve used Shannon as a dog sitter twice so far, both times almost a full week and we were very happy!

We set up a meet and greet with Shannon to watch our 8 yr old boxer Moxie for 9 days. Right before meeting Shannon, Moxie suffered from a hemorrhaging tumor. Thankfully we were able to stabilize her and she has recovered remarkably. Moxie was still sick though and the tumor could rupture at any moment. But Shannon agreed to take her in knowing I had full confidence. If I could give Shannon a million stars I would. She was a true blessing to our family in caring for her. Not only did Moxie adjust to her home, she thrived!! Thank you Shannon, I would recommend her to anyone!!
