About: I’ve had pets every day of my life, from cats to dogs of all sizes and personalities. Caring for animals comes naturally to me, and I love making each pet feel safe, happy, and loved. I’m experienced with feeding, walking, administering medications, and providing companionship tailored to each pet’s needs! I am currently working part time so I will have plenty of time to be with your pets. I do not have any animals of my own and I only work In my home, pets are welcomed into a safe, comfortable space with plenty of love, attention, and playtime. I keep their routine consistent so they feel right at home. In a client’s home, I follow your instructions closely—feeding, walks, play, litter, or medications—while giving pets the same care and affection they’d get if you were there. I also make sure your home is respected and left just as you like it.

Tammy allowed us to fully enjoy our vacation knowing our pup was in excellent care. She sent us daily pics of their day together, followed his daily routine and was fully committed to the care and comfort of Tank. I would give Tammy 6 stars if I could.

I really appreciate the service Amber provides. She was on time and very communicative from the start, with our meet and greet and while she was staying in my home taking care of my animals. She is a very responsible sitter and she took good care of my home. I will definitely use her services again and recommend her highly to others.

Nicole did a great job with Max. I received daily updates with pictures/videos. Max is a scaredy cat and Nicole, thru her patience, was able to win him over, even though it was towards the end of the cat sitting. I will use her services again.

About: I’ve regularly helped friends, neighbors, and family members with pet sitting and dog walking. I understand how important routines, safety, and communication are, and I always make sure pets feel comfortable and cared for. I am available at anytime during the day and evening but the best is to let me know your desired hours and I will check my schedule. I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet in someone else’s care. I’m reliable, communicative, and attentive to each pet’s needs and personality. My goal is to help pets feel safe, happy, and loved while giving owners peace of mind.

Mallory cared for our two large dogs and cat. She was very responsive before and during the stay, sent photo updates, walked the dogs, and everyone was happy and healthy when we returned. She did a great job with our anxious/dog reactive pup.

Madison was a wonderful cat sitter. This is our first time having someone stay at the house with the cats while we were away and Madison did a wonderful job. She was very communicative, sent pictures of the kitties and left the place in great shape. Will definitely hire her again!

Shayla was very sweet with our kids, especially with our very senior Lady Ume. She kept us updated texting and with photos. Shayla was respectful of our home and we returned home to a clean and tidy house. We have already reserved Shayla for a second visit.

About: I grew up working on a farm! Not only am I familiar with training puppies and caring for cats, I also know my way around a barn. I have time in the early mornings and evenings to visit your pets! I am also able to house sit and provide daily exercise to any extent you need! I love to go on walks and adventuring in parks. But I also love just sitting on the couch with a dog or cat :) I am flexible and ready to meet whatever your pet needs!

Matthew exceeded expectations! Not only is he professional, but it’s also clear that caring for dogs is a full time passion. My pup, Cooper, loved him and Matthew even took time to train him. I will definitely be booking again and recommending him to all my pet owning friends. Very grateful to have you in the area Matthew!

Taryn is an absolutely amazing dog sitter. One of my dogs had an unexpected emergency and needed to go to the vet, and Taryn handled the situation perfectly with calm, care, and professionalism. She kept me informed, made sure my dog got the care they needed, and went above and beyond during a stressful situation. She is incredibly dependable and takes excellent care of the dogs as if they were her own. I felt completely at ease knowing my pets were in such good hands. I highly recommend Taryn to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter.
