“Randallyn takes such great care of my cats that I do not think twice about having to leave them behind, and I never worry about them while I am gone. She is reliable and communicative - the best attributes in a pet sitter! I have a long trip planned in a few months and am already looking to book with Randallyn again!”

“Sydney was so loving and kind with River and Oskar. She kept me up to date with visit and provided pictures of my boys. She took her time each visit made sure the boys got enough time to potty and even have them sun bathe outside. This made my trip much easier. My boys loved Sydney the moment she came to meet Oskar and River. She is professional and someone you can fully trust taking care of your pups. I appreciate Sydney’s help on such short notice. I look forward in booking her services in the future .”

About: Hey I’m Callie, and I’ve been raised around dogs and cats since I’ve been able to talk. I have grown up with many big dogs as well as taking care of senior dogs who need extra care especially for diets and giving them the proper exercise. I am currently a college student at Simpson university, so I will have lots of breaks to check in on your pets and give them the attention they need. When taking care of your pets I will be able to crate them when necessary, as well as follow any instructions I am given about specific care for your pets because attention to detail is very important to me and taking care of animals.
About: I have been a petsitter for 16 years and this is my most favorite thing to do! I have experience with pot belly pigs, hedgehogs, cats, dogs, reptiles, farm animals, aquatic life, small animals. Also professionally trained with many more kinds of creatures including medication management of birds, turtles, etc. My ultimate goal is to become an animal therapist. Your pet (s) will receive almost non stop attention with me because I can’t have my own animals at this time so I love making the most of it! My housesitting minimum outside of holidays is 3 nights. Minimum during holidays is 4 nights. I have been called an animal whisperer on several occasions and I am grateful to have such a special connection with animals. I also provide “Whole Tones” music for stressed pets free of charge.
About: Very well, experienced in dog training techniques, pet store etiquette, a variety of small pet needs, as well as, infant, elderly & service animal special care. I’m an early riser with a balanced indoor/ outdoor schedule- perfect for animal health. Mornings & afternoon exercise play a large part in my active lifestyle here, too! This property also sits across the street from several beautiful trails that I explore frequently, though, our personal wooded acreage is welcomed to furry guests, too. We have two cats that are very friendly & open to other company, though can easily be separated depending on your personal needs. We also offer spare rooms to customize for their temporary stay. Wind-down times are in place before bedtimes, though there’s rarely been an animal that wasn’t exhausted after a good day here!
“Thank you Jennifer! You are the best! Thank you so much for coming over short notice to meet the dogs before my vacation. That helped me feel more comfortable since it was my first time using Rover. Thank you so much for going beyond taking such good care of my fur babies. The check ins text and photos were awesome and made me feel comfortable leaving them knowing how well they were taken care of. You are my new go to dog sitter! Thank you so much!”

About: My family has always been passionate about giving animals, the best possible life and experience that we possibly could. I have owned multiple dogs of different sizes and cared for multiple kinds of reptiles. I have experience carrying for special needs dogs as two of our dogs needed extensive medical care and medication administered multiple times of day as they near the end of their lives. I consider myself to be very calm and respectful of people’s fur babies and home. I’m currently working part time, just 10 hours a week and I spend most of my time when I’m not working doing schoolwork. I’m a local college student and avid pet lover, so should you choose to have me in your house? I’ll spend most of my time caring for your pets and reading my textbooks. I’m a quick learner and can follow any instructions you set for me. I have experience administering medications to dogs as my previous dog required multiple bouts of different medication throughout the day during the end of her life. I also have experience with reptiles and heating requirements and general feeding schedules.
About: I grew up on a farm, so animals have always been part of my world—feeding chickens before breakfast, brushing horses after school, and getting covered in dog hair in between! I’ve looked after everything from bouncy puppies to mellow senior dogs, and I’ve always had an easy, natural connection with animals. They seem to sense that I’m one of the good ones. I’m great at picking up on their vibes—whether they’re in the mood to zoom around or just want some chill cuddle time. Taking care of animals is second nature to me, and honestly, it’s one of my favorite things to do. I live a flexible lifestyle and am fully available to care for your pets. Since I’m not tied to a traditional job or schedule, I can offer your fur babies lots of time, attention, and consistency. Whether it’s daily walks, extended stays, or last-minute needs, I’m here to help and happy to adapt to your routine. I prioritize creating a safe, nurturing environment wherever I’m staying. I care for pets in their own familiar space, which helps them feel secure and relaxed. I’m attentive to routines, respectful of your home, and can adapt to any special needs your pet may have—whether that means crating, administering medication, or extra cuddle time.

“I definitely recommend Shannon. She has been very flexible and reliable with us. I have never worried about my pups in her care. I know she is spending quality time with them and feel very comfortable leaving them with her.”

“Olivia helped out with a week’s long worth of drop ins while I was out of town. She was communicative, kind, understanding of adjustments, and patient with one of our more skittish dogs. Everything she tended to was tidy and perfect when I returned! Thanks, Olivia!”
