“Makenzie dropped in to check on our cats while we were gone on vacation. She did a great job! She sent us pictures of them and made sure they had everything they needed while we were away. I would not hesitate to have her take care of any of our animals in the future!”


“Makayla is always very responsive and has been flexible with me when times have changed. She’s wonderful about sending Biden’s or photos to let me see Fiadh is being loved while I’m away. Thank you 🙏”


“Such a welcomed relief having Maria stay with Eevee. We know we've us well taken care of and loved and she communicates really well and quickly. We appreciate her so much!”


“Ira seemed happy and healthy when I got back and Kayla updated me on his progress during my trip. Would have given 5stars but she did leave my spare room messy with food crumbs all over and similarly dirty kitchen counters after pet sitting for me.”

“This was my first time booking with Kiley and she exceeded my expectations. She was hired for a drop in visit but not only showed up on time, but stayed longer than the scheduled 30 mins to make sure my dogs were comfortable. Two out of my three puppers are typically shy around new people, but Kiley was patient and gentle with them. I would absolutely use her again and highly recommend her as a thoughtful and reliable sitter.”


“She is amazing with my cat, very on time and great with communicating any changes. I would definitely recommend her for anyone who looks for someone they can trust to take care of their pets.”


“Olivia is so kind and attentive to our cat. She really loves animals and it shows. She’s reliable and responsible so we always request her for our pet sitting. Our cat comes running to see her. She is the best.”


“She did amazing with our dogs! We will definitely continue using her services!”


“Sarah was wonderful with our two dogs! She is very friendly and easy going. Ellie and Toby were taken great care of! We will definitely use her again!”


About: I’ve taken care of many of my friends dogs and I recently got a dog of my own. My friends have trusted me to care for their fur babies by walking, feeding and playing with their pets My schedule is completely open at this time. After getting my kids off to school at about 7:30 I have the entire day free to assist with any pet needs. I am always very careful in someone else’s home, I ensure the pets area is tidy before leaving and I like to make sure they are comfortable. When in my home I have designated areas for play and relaxing!

About: I come from a household with a love for pets. Combined, my family has 2 dogs and 5 cats. With that comes a lot of experience and love for animals! I just recently moved to the area to start medical school. I have lots of daytime and weekday flexibility as I will be doing most of my school work from home. In my clients homes I treat the animals just as I would my own. With love and care, making sure that they are always well cared for!

About: Have you ever met someone who just seems to attract animals? Well, that’s me. I was raised around dogs, including breeding Cocker Spaniels and German Shepherds, junior handling a Weimaraner and training for obedience and for service dogs. These days I’m a dedicated cat mama with a crazy Corgi who thinks she's a cat! I've recently had to give up transporting furry friends all over the country and since I'll be home for the foreseeable future, I'm available to take care of the local fur babies. I can't board dogs in my home but cats are welcome. In fact, they'll have their own room, complete with a cat tree by the window so they can bask in the morning son and watch the dog run in her little yard. I can house sit and keep your furry children company or just drop>n and visit a couple times a day. If your dog needs a playmate while you're away I know a Corgi who is always willing. I was on the road for most of the month but I had to give that up - at least for now. I'm not working on anything else so I have plenty of time to play with your babies while you're away. I have a young Corgi and an older cat, both fixed and friendly. Right now I have an extra bedroom setup for the cat and I keep the Corgi contained with a baby gate. Cats boarded in my home will be in the bedroom at all times and my cat will just have to take his naps in the living room. Unless you give me permission for me to bring my dog to your house to play, she's not invited.

About: I’ve always loved animals! Friends and Family would reach out to me to watch their fur babies and I was more than happy to be their Fur Mama. I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time in the mornings to walk check in and play with your Fur Babies before I go in at 2. I am willing to accommodate whatever the Fur Parents needs and wants are. I have 2 cats that are indoors and monitor them. My fur babies are spoiled. They get treats and toys galore.

About: I grew up feeding and caring for strays. I've had several "fur babies" since 1987 and have done part time pet sitting professionally since 2006. I am very flexible with scheduling but would prefer reliability in scheduling of clients on my calendar, since I maintain a regular part time job. I would be more than excited to come and care for your fur babies. I've been Mom to an elderly blind dog and am currently Mom of two spoiled felines. I don't charge extra for unconditional love.

About: i love animals so much!! i have had pets every since i was born and was raised to help take care of them! i love both cats and dogs equally (maybe cats a little more lol) i work part time right now so i have a very open schedule. i will have more time open up in the summer as well:) if your animals need certain requirements i’m happy to help! including if they need medications, or have a certain diet! i can walk them and/or take them to dog park.

About: I worked at kennel for 5 years and now decided to branch out and do something a little different. I have two dogs one is deaf and old the other one is young and full of energy! I’m currently only working as a DoorDash driver so I have plenty of availability during the day on week days and weekends to take care of your pet . If there is a fenced back yard we can play back there or go for a walk on a leash whatever keeps you and your pet happy.

“Ivan has a calm gentle energy that is good for cats. My cat loved him instantly. He is courteous, professional, punctual, and went above and beyond while catsitting. You can tell he is a natural animal person. I also appreciated being sent cute pictures of snuggle time. Will hire again and definitely recommend Ivan as a sitter for your furbabies.”

Sherry R.
“We live next door to Sherry R and know her quite well. She loves our Sheltie and enjoys taking him on a walk around the neighborhood just for her enjoyment of being with him. When I am outside at the same time as Sherry our dog really wants to run to her and enjoys the attention she gives. On two occasions we needed to be away from home, first for a long weekend and second for a two week trip to visit family in another country. We left our Sheltie in her care both times and were pleased with the care he received. We trusted her with the key to our house so our dog could stay in his own home (he is shy and does not do well in a kennel situation). Instructions were left detailing his daily routine of food, water, medication, and snacks which she carefully followed. It is so nice to come home following a time Sherry has cared for him and we are greeted by happy dog.”
