Sarah saved us in a last minute pinch when we wouldn't have someone to let our dogs out! She was quick to respond, easy to coordinate with, and provided us with pictures.

What a blessing Keri is! She made our girls so happy and did an amazing job letting them outside to potty and feeding them lunch. We will definitely be requesting Keri again when we need assistance.

Erin was wonderful to have around our pets. She was friendly and personable, and it was obvious that both of our cats were comfortable around her. She also sends pictures of your pets, which makes the time away more manageable! Would thoroughly recommend.

Aubrey was available on short notice and did a great job taking care of our cat. She was attentive to his habits and notified us when something deviated from normal so that we could take action to put things back on track. I hope Aubrey will be available to care for our cat again!

Glenn took excellent care of my Dallas, who is a bit difficult, but he kept me updated and seemed to be happy to deal with her cranky personality. I will definitely book again.

About: I am currently getting my bachelor's in animal behavior and care. I've had many bteeds of dog from small to large as well as cats. I love all breeds and I am open minded to all animals. Even the scaly ones. I have 3 cats and a dog with ptsd from their previous owner. I work but am more then able to adjust my schedule in order to pet sit. I will still be sure they are fed properly, played with, and taken out as needed. I will ensure your pet is fed, walked, taken out and generally well looked after with lots of playtime. I can work with their dietary schedules and needs as well as their special care.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I’m comfortable with daily routines like feeding, walks, playtime, litter box cleanup, and administering basic medications when needed. I take the time to understand each pet’s unique needs and personality so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always prioritize their happiness, safety, and well-being. I work full time for USPS as a mail carrier. I have two days off each week. I’m always off Sundays. Once I’m off work usually around 5/6pm I’m free! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I maintain a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment in my home, free of hazards and closely supervised at all times. I follow all care instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any special requirements. When caring for pets in their own home, I respect your space and your pet’s routine to help them feel secure and stress-free. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are always secure and I provide regular updates so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away. I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and genuine care, and I understand the trust it takes to leave your pet—and your home—in someone else’s hands. My goal is to create a safe, loving, and dependable experience for both you and your pet.

About: New to pet sitting, but not new to pet care! I treat every animal like family, and understand the love, patience, and responsibility it takes. :) I am currently working part-time! I am available on certain days throughout the week to do visits, walks, or daycare. I even can on some weekends! I have both a fenced and unfenced yard! I also have 3 siblings (6 and older) who love, enjoy, and have fun playing with all animals too! :)

About: I have been around dogs of my own and others for my entire 38 years of life. I grew up with having at least 3 dogs at once, then when out on my own for the last 10+ years, have lived with and spoiled at least 2 dogs at a time. I currently have 2 fur kids of my own, who are very loved and spoiled. That same kind of care would translate to any dogs I care for. I'm currently working part time while studying, so I will have plenty of time for your pups! I work 3 varying days a week currently, from about 9am-5pm. A lot of time is spent at home with my own pups, and that would translate to yours. I have a good sized fenced in yard, and can provide a separate space, crating or whatever is needed between your and my dogs! I also keep the back part of my house separate.

My wife and I had an excellent experience with Mayra! She took care of Pipinha (our lovely cat) for two days and did an amazing job. Communication was great — she sent daily updates, photos, and made sure everything was clean and organized when I got back. It gave me total peace of mind while I was away. We highly recommend Mayra to anyone looking for someone responsible, caring, and attentive. I’ll definitely book her again next time!

Alyssa went above and beyond for my pets. She came a few days before to meet them, and get training on what to do. Even though my cats were scared at first, she was very patient with them. On the day of the pet sitting, she sent pictures and explained what she did while she was here. I was very happy with her services!! It was great to know my cats were happy and cared for while I was gone.
