“We have a dog that is reactive and it was wonderful to come home to find her calm and happy. We could not be more pleased with the care she got, the pictures we saw, the conditon of our house when we returned home. We will hopefully be able to use Jared many more times in the future.”

“Jenn was a delight! She was super responsive, a clear communicator, sent us fun pics of our bernedoodle, and left the house spotless! Plus she’s got upbeat and clearly loves animals!”

“Amanda was great with my 2 dogs, Gus and Hazel. She stayed with them for a week, and kept me updated to ease my nerves leaving them while on vacation! She cuddled them and worked on training while with them both! Would book again for any future vacations!”

About: I have owned a female Belgian Shepherd mix as a child and she was so intelligent that she won multiple ribbons in local skills competitions. I also owned 2 female Saint Bernards (littermates) who I formally trained as pups. They were extremely sweet and gentle especially with my 3 newborn babies as they came home for the first time. I have done dog walking and sitting for several friends, some who had other animals in the home. I enjoy spending time with animals who give me so much joy. In addition to owning dogs and cats, I have also raised domestic rabbits for 15 years and loved the entire experience of bringing new life into the world. We also have a western hognose snake named Remi and she is really great! My children and many of their friends have enjoyed handling her as she is so calm. Other pets we have had over the years include a bearded dragon named Raja, a rat named Tori and several hamsters and fish. Currently I have an open availability schedule but in future I will have part time jobs that will allow me to fit in pet care when I'm available. I look forward to spending time doing what I love! Currently I have 2 cats and one domestic rabbit Each one gets the best care including feeding, grooming, cleaning litter pans and cages. I would do the same for any clients according to their needs and schedules. Dogs would be walked and played with throughout the day or time of care. The home environment is safe and conducive to accommodating animals.
About: I have had dogs my entire life and they are truly the best thing to ever happen to me. I am often called upon to dogsit when family & friends go out of town, I have lots of experience house/dog sitting and when the owners return they always are impressed with how their dog and home were taken care of. I have a rescue dog named Finley who is my whole world so you can rest assured I will treat your dog as my own and spoil them with lots of cuddles and belly rubs. I’m a teacher so weekends I’m always free and am usually always with my dog. I’m available most afternoons for drop in visits or to take your dog for a walk. Summers are also a time when I am completely free and would love to be able to care for your dog(s) while you enjoy a summer vacation! I have a fenced in backyard and a very friendly hound mix dog to keep your dog company. She loves to play and wants to be friends with every dog we meet. I can also easily crate your dog if needed.
“Absolutely without a doubt the very best pet sitter you could ever hire!!! We were coming in to town for my daughter's wedding (staying at an Airbnb) and needed someone to feed our dogs and care for them for a few hours since we would be gone for so long. Julia was an angel!!! She went way above and beyond caring for our beloved dogs (3). She fed them, walked them each individually, played with them and sent us so many pictures of them while we were away. She truly was a wish come true because when I had the idea to hire someone I was nervous. It was for my dog, and my two daughter's dogs, who are all like our children!!! We love them and Julia could not have been any more perfect. They loved her immediately. They were happy and calm. I wish I lived closer to Julia, because we would never hire another pet sitter again if we did!!! Thank you so much Julia!!!”

“Jess dog/house sat for me last week and she was absolutely amazing! I think my dogs want to live with Jess (and Matt) now, to be honest. :) She was highly communicative, sent a ton of pictures, and kept my pups totally entertained. Couldn't recommend Jess more highly for house/dog sitting and dog walking!”

About: I am a Certified Veterinary Technician with a Bachelors degree in Veterinary Technology. I have been a Vet Tech for over 6 years now, working in Emergency and Critical Care. Prior to this, my love for animals started when I was very young. I knew from the beginning I wanted to work with animals in some capacity. I grew up with dogs, cats, hamster, turtles and rabbits, so I am comfortable sitting for a variety of species. I just moved to the area and not starting work until a few weeks after the new year. My schedule from now until then is pretty free, but once I know my work schedule I will update my profile accordingly. I have a yard that is 3/4 of the way fenced in currently. I have a Great dog named Sarge, he is very friendly with dogs all sizes. Your pets safety is my number one priority if there is any concerns at all I will be sure to take the necessary steps to ensure your pets wellness.
“Jen was the best sitter I could have found for my 115lb. Golden. I knew the day I met her and watched how Charlie reacted with her that she would be the person I could trust to stay with him. It was our first time leaving Charlie with anyone other than family, also it was the longest amount of time we would be gone. She stayed with Charlie for 6 days and 5 nights. Our flights were delayed both going and coming home. Jen was so accommodating, she came earlier than I had booked her for and stayed later at the end. I was completely at ease knowing Charlie was going to be so well cared for, even loved. He's such a creature of habit and Jen followed our routine perfectly. It was obvious from the way he reacted to Jen that he knew she was a good person and a dog lover. My husband and I will feel so much better about going away and leaving our dog, knowing that we will be able to call on Jen again. We were so fortunate to have found her!! Thank you so much Jen!!”

About: I’ve had dog(s) since before I was born and I try to make sure that they receive adequate back rubs, treats, and outfits in addition to their basic care. As a kid I watched many neighbors dogs while they were on vacation and I am always the first one to fill a food or water bowl At this time I have a wide range of availability to care for dogs in my schedule. I am open to different care options to best meet the dog’s needs I have a fenced in area where my three dogs are able to let themselves in and out via doggy door. They can have as much food as they want as they are feeder fed.

Maggie is fantastic! She took great care of our dog, Birdie, at our home while we were out of town for 2 weeks. We got twice daily updates of what Birdie was up to and came home to a happy and relaxed pup. Maggie is also very respectful of our home, leaving it tidy and clean.
