“Tigue is amazing with my orange. He loves her so much! Tigue rocks him every night and he trusts her 100%. Rest assured she will Love your pets as much as she loves her own. It’s a 200% yes with rebooking.”
“I couldn't be happier with Serenity's care for my dog! She was attentive, reliable, and treated my pup like her own. It was clear she has a natural love for animals, and I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in her care. Serenity sent regular updates, which made the experience even better. I highly recommend her for anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter!”
“Lynn was so great with our cats! She took care of all their needs and gave them plenty of love. She made sure to play with our youngest a ton to get that kitten energy out, and she was patient and comforting to our older (extremely shy) cat. We're so happy with our experience with Lynn and we'll definitely be calling on her next time we need a sitter. Thanks Lynn!!”
“Sheri is the best, our dog howls when she comes and she does that howl of love for very few. We never worry about Marley when she is coming. We are so blessed to have gotten connected with her.”
“Donna was absolutely amazing! She was extremely responsive, went above and beyond to make sure Rugby was cared for (even if Rugby never actually came to meet/greet her), and she was the HAPPIEST I’ve ever seen her after coming back from this long of a trip! I wish I could give 10 stars!”
About: I have 3 small rescued dogs and they love other dogs and enjoy playmates. We have a doggie door that they can access the yard from 6 AM to 9 PM. The yard is secure and the fence is 4 feet high. Your dog will get played with, loved and spoiled in my care. I do not anticipate any problem with my daily or weekly routine. I would not accept an assignment if I knew I was too busy that week. Your pet comes first with me. Your fur baby will be in great hands. We love dogs, and our dogs are very friendly and enjoy other dogs. I never get tired of giving attention to any animal.
“Angelique was great! This was our first time leaving our pets with someone who wasn't family or friends, so we were nervous, but she did an amazing job! She even got my super skiddish cat to come out of hiding 😊 I would definitely recommend using Angelique!”

About: Hi! I have carried a passion for animals since I was little; and cared for dogs, cats, and critters since I was 10. I grew up volunteering at the local humane society. Inspired by my childhood dream to be a veterinarian, I always take special care to ensure every pet is loved and well-cared for, including those with special needs. I’m available every day of the week (and I accept same-day bookings), for overnight care at client house, walking, house visits, and drop-ins up to 3 times a day! No boarding at my place as of right now though, I’m very sorry!! I’m passionate about creating a safe, loving environment for every pet, whether in my home or yours. With years of experience handling animals of all temperaments, I tailor my care to each pet’s unique needs—ensuring they’re comfortable, secure, and happy. At your place, I follow your routines precisely, from medication administration to security checks. Safety is my top priority: I’m CPR certified, and have a strong understanding of animal behavior and body language so I’m always monitoring for any signs of stress or health issues. Your fur baby’s well-being comes first, customized to their personality and your preferences.
“Linden took amazing care of both my kitties while I was away for a week, and she was very easy to work with. One kitty needs daily medicine and lots of attention and I returned home and both kitties were very happy. She sent photos everyday and provided a recap of each visit which made me smile to see everyday. I highly recommend her!! ??”
