“Sarah was great! Super friendly, responsible, sweet, and an obvious animal lover. We are lucky to have found her to help us with our dog, Pax!”
2. Lindsey C.
“Lindsey is amazing!! She has watched our two cats, fish, and plants for two weeks straight on three separate occasions. Our cats can be standoffish but they have become incredibly fond of her and routinely come to her for pets when she is taking care of them. She always sends pictures and videos, which I love! And she is truly fantastic at managing multiple pets. I also know that she is incredible with dogs, happy to go on long walks and play with them for a while. She’s a very precise and thorough person, so following directions for a complicated medication schedule or something similar would be easy for her. Lindsey has a natural gift for caring for animals and such a big heart. I would recommend her to anyone.”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and started taking on responsibilities of owning a dog at the age of 10. I also worked in an animal shelter for awhile taking care of both the cats and dogs by providing thorough cleaning to cages and walking dogs of all personality types. I mainly focused on cats in the shelter and learned a lot about them that I never knew; I understand their shyness, personable traits, and much more, which eventually led me to getting my own cat! Overall, I love hanging out and providing care to all animals. Soon, I will be starting a part-time job. I do not have my schedule yet, but when I do I will update that information. On days I’m off and before or after work I would be willing to provide care in any way. In my home, I would make sure the animal staying would have access to all the necessities: food, water, toys, treats and a comfy spot to lay down if they choose. I would also ensure dogs would be taken for walks or potty breaks every 2 hours. In a client’s home, I would stop by for 30min-an hour and provide the same care.
4. Taelyn C.
“Taelyn is great! She was able to come meet me and my dog Rupert and then help with walking him while I was out of town. Definitely would book again!”
5. Heather R.
“Our family had a big, fluffy Samoyed for 10 years. Heather took excellent care of her, not only with food, water and walks, but just loving her all of the time. Heather also would take care of neighborhood pets when asked, and cared for cats, a Guinea pig, and even a hedgehog. She is an awesome pet carer and would take great care of your pet(s).”
6. Tara N.
“Tara is always my first choice for watching my pets. I have two cats who can be a challenging to watch as they are extremely weary of strangers. But, Tara has worked her charms on all of us and the boys will eagerly rub up against her legs during her pop in visits. Tara is also extremely well versed in reptile care, which comes in handy as I also have a crested gecko. She’s knowledgeable and truly cares about the animals she’s watching, always providing updates on how everyone is doing. I would recommend her to anyone!”
7. Sammi S.
About: I have been taking care of animals in some form or another since I was five years old. Caring for animals is something I not only enjoy with passion, but excitement too. I have experience caring for many different types of animals — from rodents to fish, dogs to cats, and horses to exotic animals — both on my own time and professionally. I am currently an electrical apprentice with Local Union 159, so I’m busy until 4 pm on weekdays. However, I am available on weekday evenings and anytime on weekends! My priority is providing the best service, no matter what time of day. I am comfortable with dogs on leash or off leash in a fenced in area. I can crate your dog if needed, and I am happy to follow your regular routine to keep your pup on schedule!
8. Jessica K.
“Jessica was great with Kobe from beginning to end and he came back and went right to sleep! Overall outstanding service and will definitely book again! Thanks!”
9. Salem E.
“Salem has strong protective and nurturing instincts when it comes to animals! He also has a great breadth of knowledge of exotic animals and less common pets including reptiles, horses, fish, and insects. You can trust that Salem will treat your animals with great care and responsibility as if they were his own.”
10. Kayla K.
“Kayla is an amazing and kind person who loves animals with all her heart. She has been amazing with my own dogs on trips and at the house. She has dog sat before and also volunteered for sandy paws shelter. A big animal lover in a kind human.”
11. Katie S.
About: I've been a dog lover my entire life. My family includes 3 rescue pups, all from Texas. While working at a doggy daycare I learned SO MUCH about dog behavior and personalities, and I want to do more at-home care for dog families. I'm looking to add a few special dogs to my life, whether that means some playtime with your pup during the work day, or caring for your dog while you're away from home. Let me take extra special care of your dog! I am currently available for weekday visits. Whether that means your dog spends their day at my house, or I drop in for short walks and some play time. I have an unfenced yard, but would not let dogs outside without leashes. I live on a quiet street with minimal traffic, and its a great neighborhood for walks. I have kennels available if needed for any reason, including a peaceful nap time.
12. Molly H.
“Molly had been an amazing dog walker for me. She is very easy to work with and has been flexible with my crazy schedule. Goose loves her and is well taken care of!”
13. Natalie K.
“Natalie has been caring for my pets for over twelve years. She has a great love for all creatures and has a special caregiving touch with dogs and cats. Natalie is dependable, highly-responsible and extremely loving with my two dogs and three cats whenever I entrust her with their care. She goes above and beyond when she cares for my dogs, taking them on long walks and spending a great deal of playtime with them during my absence. She also has extensive experience in caring for elderly or infirm dogs and cats who may need special medications or visits to the local veterinarian. In summary, I haven't ever had to worry about my treasured pets whenever they are in Natalie's care.”
14. Suellen A.
“Very timely when I need a walk in a pinch! Would highly recommend!”
15. Kathryn G.
“I lived in a house with Kathryn and a dog for four months and she did a terrific job. She was always the first to recommend a walk, remember to give her water, and keep her by her side when she was alone with her. Kathryn loves all types of dogs and I can't think of someone more suited for this role!”
16. Libby K.
“Libby was awesome for Josie’s first walk with her! She gave me a cute little report card and a couple of photos that definitely put my mind at ease. I’m sure Josie will love her weekly walks with Libby!”
17. Colette V.
“Colette started pet sitting for me when she was still in high school. She is extremely reliable and dependable. She has cared for cats, dogs, and my horse. She has even come to visit them when not pet sitting! She is responsive to special requests: I always ask her to send me a text when she is there to let me know all is well.”
18. Heather C.
“Thank you so much for your help today. The girls were so content when we got home. I'll definitely book with you again!”
