“Marissa was amazing with our Tank! She won him over quickly and we felt like he was definitely in good hands while we were on vacation. She was always on time when dropping in on him. She wanted to make sure he was eating and drinking, whatever it took she would do it. He loved his long walks with her. We loved how she played with him and gave him rubs and cuddles. We even saw her do a little foot dance one day when she dropped in on him. She’s definitely a 10 out of 10 and if we available she will be our first choice for our Tank. Would highly recommend!”


“I can’t say enough good things about Mahaila. From our very first meet and greet, it was clear how much she genuinely loves animals—my girls warmed up to her right away, which never happens! She was attentive, patient, and incredibly thoughtful every step of the way. While I was away, she kept in consistent contact, sending updates and the cutest pictures—my dogs looked so happy and relaxed, which gave me such peace of mind. It’s hard to trust someone else with your pets, but Mahaila made it easy. I’ve never felt more confident leaving them in someone else’s care. She’s officially our go-to now, and I’m so grateful we found her!”


“Hollie was so sweet to let my Bridgette out today and walk her. It was so nice to be able to trust someone with my dog. I knew that I didn't have to worry about anything today knowing that Hollie was going to be taking care of my Bridget.”


About: I can care for exotic animals too! Rats, snakes, birds, etc. are perfect! I have experience with big dogs, small dogs, housecats, outdoor cats, etc. Im a stay at home parent who runs their businesses from home. So I'm home almost all the time and can provide almost constant care. I have a fenced in yard, my dogs have their own room for when needed and when I'm not home, my cats are lose around the house but are all indoor cats that are generally okay with other cats.

“James loves our puppy Prada. We are so grateful to have found him. He takes time with her and updates us each time. He has also gone in and corrected my mistakes in Rover. I would not hesitate to refer him.”


“I was very nervous about leaving Grace (6yrs) for the first time. Greg was so amazing at our first meeting. He asked questions, took notes, and spent time with Grace getting to know her. While I was a way Greg sent me updates and pictures that really eased my mine and absolutely spoiled Grace with extra love! I can’t say enough wonderful things about Greg and the fabulous care he gave Grace!! I will be a repeat pet parent!”


About: Hi there. My name is Elisha. I am recently retired and looking to fill my days with love from your fur baby! I live with my husband and our 2 year old terrier mix, Jack (featured in my photo). We rescued him at the beginning of this year, but have had dogs for the last 15 years. We live in a condo located in a quiet neighborhood. We don't have a fenced in yard, but there is lots of space to run around and it's a very dog friendly neighborhood. I am available for pet sitting, pet boarding, doggy daycare or dog walks. My dog Jack is very friendly and loves to play. One of our favorite weekend activities is meeting new friends at the dog park. Hope to meet your favorite family member soon!

“Jessica has been an exceptional caregiver to my senior dachshund. My dog requires medication every 8 hours for his heart condition and she was been very reliable and goes above and beyond!”



“We highly recommend Russell! We felt confident leaving our two bulldogs in his care - he stopped over to get acquainted and seemed very experienced with the breed and dogs in general! We got pics and updates during his stay.”


“Nikki did everything we asked and more. We will definitely use her again when we travel. We have one cat that hides from everyone and the very first day she was at the house, she sent a picture of her petting that cat. She is a “cat whisperer” for sure.”


About: Pet sitting comes naturally to me since I grew up with four dogs! Neighbors rely on me to watch their dogs when they are out of town! I love all dogs but mainly the ones that don’t understand personal space! I always communicate about my availability and how the pet(s) is doing! I have a funky schedule as a young person who is in school and working part time but I can always be available for a dog! We have a fenced in yard for any size dog to play in. I have 1 large dog who plays well with any kind of dog. I have plenty of time to take a long walk after work to exercise not only the dog but also me! I love getting outside and letting the dog(s) sniff as much as needed. I don’t end the walk until all of their business is taken care of. I have a fenced in yard and access to a paved and shaded walking path. I have 2 friendly dogs to keep your dog company. My dogs are crate trained so no worries if your dog needs more one on one care.

“Jackie was wonderful and my dog seemed to warm to her. Jackie took lots of pictures, kept my home orderly and was professional. I'm looking forward to many more visits with Sweety!!”


About: I’ve taken care of, owned and trained all types of dogs and cats since I was 10 yo. Big and small I love them all. I am available most days all day especially if I know in advance. I’m very flexible and can accommodate most requests as needed. Try me. I can take care of your fur baby however you want. I do not like to disrupt their routine. You show/tell me and it’s done.

“Thank you so much for today. It was so great knowing Bailee was taken so well care of. Please consider Peggy on your future bookings. She did an amazing thorough job with our bulldog Bailee.”


“Joseph is wonderful! He communicated in much detail about how my dog was acting during each visit. I enjoyed the ease of working with him. Although I was gone for a few days I noticed that Baylee was calmer upon returning and I believe that’s because she received plenty of attention and care from Joseph in my absence!”


About: I’ve taken care or quite a few neighbors dogs the past 4 years. I’m stay at home mama and all my kids are in school so now I’m able to do pet sitting a little more openly. My kids all love dogs and we have an amazing house with a pool and back yard that is fenced in!!! My youngest and I walk 3 miles a day so we are always outside and love to take walks! I’m currently at home so my schedule is pretty open. My daughter and son go to school full time and my youngest is still home with me - we spend our days walking; playing and doing a lot of outdoor time. I’m in the car twice a day going to my kids school for drop off and pick up but we live 5 minutes from their school! I have a fenced in yard and a pool with all the safety precautions for kids and pets so your fur baby will be in great hands!

About: I’ve owned and fostered dogs of all shapes and sizes for over 13 years. I’ve owned Great Danes, Huskies, Malamutes, Anatolian shepherds, Cane Corsos, and even wolf hybrids. I’m comfortable with all sizes and know how to adequately handle them. I am happiest when with dogs and look forward to meeting your furry family member! I work a job where I pick my own schedule. I will work around whatever my clients needs are to ensure their pet is cared for to your standard. I love to walk and am willing to take your furry loved one on as long of a walk as you like. I also practice safe feeding environments and am aware if feedings need to be done a certain way. I am also versed in practices of being safe while on the leash and at dog parks. I have a truck that I can use to take your dog to the dog park as well if you’d like.
