“Neige watched our cats for the first time this last week and they seemed to do well while we were gone. Neige was good about sending me pictures and updates and when we arrived home everything was clean and we'll maintained in the cats' main area. She even checked in on them an unexpected extra day when our flight was canceled and we were delayed in our journey home. I would definitely hire her again.”

“We were very pleased with Kassidy and will certainly book with her again. We booked somewhat last minute and were very anxious as we had trip planned, etc. She accommodated and took very good care of our kitties. She even checked on and fed our birds, which we didn't count on her doing, as some people are not comfortable with large parrots. She did wonderful and we are very thankful for her.”

About: I have taken care of all kinds of animals, including, dogs, cats, horses, and sugar-gliders. I have three cats and three large dogs at home so I know how to handle all sizes of animals. If any sickness occurs I am good at cleaning and communicating to veterinarians if necessary. Currently, I am away at college and have classes on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Fridays. Most days I am done with class by 2pm and I recently finished soccer season so I have more free time to fill. I follow instructions provided and if I see something the pets need that are not on the instructions I will provide necessary care. I recommend doing meet and greets before scheduled home visits so I can assess any special needs the pets may have with the owners. I will take your dogs on a daily walk.

About: I have been around animals my whole life and have always been an animal lover! I am one of those people whose pets are their family and I love getting to love on others pets as well. I have always cared for family and friends pets when needed and had many repeat clients by word of mouth in my hometown. I would love the opportunity to love on your fur babies! Hi there! I am currently completing a clinical rotation for OT school. I will be working Monday-Thursday, 8am-6pm. I am free outside of those hours to care for your fur babies! I will not be able to provide care in the place I am renting. But in the client home I am open to providing care in the way the client needs. The best part about being able to leave your pet home is keeping their routine!!

About: From the time I was a baby, there has never been a moment where my family did not have any animals in the home, and my love for animals I inherited from my grandpa. I knew when I had my own home, I would also have pets. After adopting my sweet fur babies, finding a reliable and trusting pet sitter was the most important thing, and having the assurance that they were being loved on and taking care of the same way that I do was the utmost importance. After some time and consideration, I thought I could offer my services as a pet sitter and the same love and caring for other animals that I have for mine, as well as offering the peace of mind pet parents need when trusting another to watch their beloved pets. I have personal experience with different breeds of dogs from big to small as well as cats, and have had animals from puppy/kitten stage to old age. My Fila girl completed 4 levels of training at Tri-State K9 University as her background was unknown when I fostered (and later adopted her), but though her behavior it was clear she had been through a rough time and suffered from fear and anxiety. With patience, love, and training she blossomed out of her shell and out came the sweet, playful girl I knew she truly was. I know some animals need extra care and handling in order to trust someone, which is why I know having the best pet sitter is so important and want to bring my love, experience, and patience to you and your beloved pets. I am mostly available early mornings and evening, but I am willing to work with you to find the best schedule to care for your animal(s). My sweet Fila can be picky with her canine friends, so I will not be able to provide services in my home but I am happy to take your dog on walks around your neighborhood, a nearby park, and play a game of fetch (or whatever your animal prefers) in your yard. I also have a wonderful fiance and stepchildren who would also love to help provide extra love and hugs to your animal(s) if allowed.

“I really appreciate Savannah and have asked her to be my cat sitter in the future! Savannah is kind and considerate and did a great job watching my cats when I was away. She sent me pictures of my kitties, like I asked for, and she appraised me of their behavior when I was gone. I have confidence in her and I am happy that she is watching my babies when I am away. I have only positive things to say about her! ??‍⬛”

About: I have had pets for as long as I can remember. We had pets of all kinds growing up. I have a dog (border collie + blue heeler mix) and a cat (Maine coon). I have been pet sitting for four years and have experience with complex diets, nervous and excited animals, and administering medications orally and through injections. I pet sit in my free time. I usually have to ask off work to take care of animals, so two weeks notice is best. My schedule will be more open in August. I always double check locks on all doors to ensure safety for the animals and belongings in the house. I always clean messes made by animals while I am there.

“Holly took care of my two cats for five days. She updated me at twice once a day, took photos/videos, and was fast to respond. My boys were very happy in her care and well taken care of, and warmed up quick to her home. I couldn't have asked for a better sitter for my boys. I could tell she truly enjoyed taking care of them and loved having them over. 10/10!”

Hannah is wonderful to have as a pet sitter. She made sure to take and send pictures every visit to the house. She also went above and beyond with taking care of the house (mail & trash) when we were gone for an extended period of time. I would highly recommend!
