Rachel was a great pet sitter for our kitty, Bandit!! Rachel was very responsive and communicative which made her meeting Bandit, going over Bandit's care, and getting keys, etc., all easy and seamless! It is clear she loves and understands pets very well. We were away for over 2 weeks and Rachel came for daily visits during that time - she sent photos and updates each day and it was clear that Bandit was very happy and well cared for. Upon our return everything was is good order and Bandit greeted us with a kitty "smile"! We highly recommend Rachel, and hope to have her care for Bandit when we next need kitty care!

Matthew was very responsive and thorough. He watched my three cats for a couple days and did a great job refreshing their area and keeping an eye on them. He even watered my Christmas tree while we were away! I would definitely recommend him and use his services again :).

Summer was amazing! Our cats loved her gentle and caring personality, and we loved her reliability and communication. It was such a relief to have someone we trusted taking care of our kitties while we were out of town and we absolutely would book visits with Summer again. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our boys!

About: Hello!! My name is Cambrya but everyone calls me Camy. I’m 24 years old and live with my husband and our 5 dogs! All of my dogs except for 1 I have had s since they were five weeks old. So I know a lot about dog and puppy care. One of my dogs is special needs so I know about certain special needs animals. If you have any questions or want to schedule a booking, just feel free to text or call!!!! I’m currently going to school to get my certification so I need to work around that. I am mostly available any day, since my schooling is online though. I will offer in overnight as long as they are a dog friendly and we’ve had a test run. Sometimes animals just don’t click and that’s OK.

One of our dog seriously hurt her leg two days before we were leaving for a week long vacation. Lena stepped in without hesitation to help with meds and provide extra care per our vet's instructions. She made a stressful situation much easier to handle—both for us and our hurt dog! She also took awesome pics!

About: I have experience caring for all types of animals whether it’s dogs, cats or even rabbits. I have been pet sitting for close to 4 years and have been regularly dog walking for 2 years. My schedule changes on a weekly basis but I am very flexible. Most weekdays I am available, weekends I am more busy but we will work out a schedule that works for both of us! I want to keep your pet(s) happy and safe. In regards to petsitting I try and follow the routine that your pet is used to, and I love adding in fun activities and enrichment so they can thrive even when you are on vacation. I will also keep you posted with pictures and updates. For walks I change my approach for each pup, some dogs love to sniff, some like to run, and others love to learn new tricks. So whatever your doggy likes I try to provide a sensory rich activity as well as an opportunity for them to get some sunshine.

About: I bring a broad background in animal care, with years of experience volunteering at dog and cat rescues in Guatemala. During that time, I fostered dogs, trained puppies, and assisted at spay and neuter clinics. I am active and enjoy running with dogs, which makes me a great match for high-energy pets. In addition to my dog experience, I have worked with horses and lived with cats, giving me a strong understanding of animals with different needs and personalities. My goal is always to provide compassionate, attentive, and reliable care so pets feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. I have a flexible schedule and can provide pet care 24/7. Most of my time is spent managing and maintaining my property, which gives me a steady routine and plenty of availability for pets. I enjoy being active and outdoors, so I’m happy to take dogs for walks, spend quality time with cats, and ensure all pets receive consistent attention, exercise, and care throughout the day. I live on a quiet dead-end road in the woods, right by a river, providing a peaceful and secure environment for pets. I have a friendly cat to keep other animals company when appropriate. I also care for pets in their own homes, spending time training, walking, and engaging them safely outdoors. I am attentive and vigilant, ensuring pets are happy, supervised, and well-cared for at all times.

Valerie went out of her way to befriend our shy dog and took extra time with him so he would feel comfortable. She sent us texts and photos to let us know how he was doing. I will definitely book with her again when we need a sitter.

Alex was amazing with our girl! We have a senior, diabetic dog who needs quite a few supplements and medication, as well as daily timed feedings and insulin injections. It’s is very hard to find someone who has experience with diabetic dogs, but Alex had experience and was more than willing to go the extra mile to keep her safe and healthy while we were gone. He had excellent communication and always asked questions about anything he was unsure of, which made me feel very confident in his ability to take care of our senior. He always let us know how she did at each meal, her blood glucose numbers, spent time walking and giving attention, and updated us with pictures from his visit. We are very happy to have found someone knowledgeable and caring to help give care when we are unable to, and feel that we may finally be able to travel more in the future now that we have a wonderful care-giver on our team!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs & cats since I was 10. I’ve helped numerous friends, neighbors, and family members with house sitting, dog walks, and pet care. I am currently a second year PA student on clinical rotations so I have a lot of flexibility to take care of your fur babies. I live in an apartment so I would prefer to take care of your fur baby in your own home but I am flexible to other arrangements.

About: Animals have always naturally gravitated toward me, and caring for them genuinely makes me happy. I’m the kind of person who notices when a pet wants comfort, quiet, playtime, or just someone calm to sit with them. I especially love creating a peaceful, loving environment where pets feel safe and cared for while their owners are away. I’m very respectful of people’s homes, clean, dependable, and communicative. I know how vulnerable it can feel leaving your pets with someone else, so I treat every animal with real patience, affection, and attention — not just as a job, but because I truly love being around them. I’m also available for overnight stays, house sitting, feeding, walks, companionship, bringing in mail, watering plants, and helping keep things running smoothly while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule right now, which allows me to give pets lots of attention, affection, and companionship throughout the day. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I truly love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and making them feel safe, happy, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m available for house sitting, drop-ins, walks, and overnight care most weekdays and weekends. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets and being in your home, and I take that responsibility very seriously. I’m dependable, attentive, and genuinely loving with animals. I pay close attention to routines, feeding instructions, medications, and the little things that help pets feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I’ll always treat your home with respect, keep things clean and tidy, and make sure you receive regular updates and photos so you can feel completely at ease.

Our cat, Steve, always loves when Susan comes to visit him while we are away! Susan is always on time for our scheduled visits, she remembers all the little details, and sends extremely detailed updates after each visit, including several pictures. Having Susan watch Steve always gives us peace of mind.

About: I have had many different animals my entire life including cats, ferrets, chinchillas, chickens, ducks, hamsters, rabbits… In my 20’s I founded “Not Just Pets, Professional Pet Care”. In my 30’s I founded “Equine Specialist, Care and Training”. I had horses for over 30 years. I trained, showed, pleasure road, belonged to 3 horse clubs and eventually started my own 4-H club. I have bred and trained Boston Terriers and German Shepherds. Currently, I have 4 dogs that I rescued from a SC kill shelter. I have worked with Aly from Coal Mountain and Karen from Arcadia Animal Rescue’s. Both have been amazed by how well adjusted the four dogs have become considering how terrified they were in which no one else would take a chance on. Animals are my passion and greatest friends! I am currently taking an online course to become a Certified Canine Massage Therapist. I work for myself taking care of Seniors and animals. Relocated 04.07.2025 from Maine. I make my own schedule and am flexible to care for your furry family! Every situation can be different. Meeting with the client and their animals is important. I like to know about any vices, medications, vet info, where supplies are at, etc. Taking notes and leaving daily notes for each client keeps communication open and I find is appreciated.
