“Shelbi was so fantastic with our 3 kitties! Both Shelbi and the cats seemed to really enjoy the visits. We usually have family help us with sitting but they are not "cat people" so it was extra comforting to get messages and photos from someone who appreciates all the things we love about our animals too :)”


“Yolena was a life saver and was able to watch my cat even though the request was very last minute. She kept me updated and sent pictures letting me know how my cat was doing. Great communication as well! Highly recommend!”


“Our family had to go out of town for a funeral without a lot of notice. We had never left our kitties with a stranger before and we were pretty apprehensive about it. But from the first meet and greet through our return home, Kayla did so much to put our minds at ease. Here are some highlights: At the first meeting, it was obvious that Kayla loves animals. I wanted someone here for them whose heart was truly in this job, and her’s really was. She also not only answered all of our questions, she asked some that we weren’t even thinking about (lights, plants) and took detailed notes. While we were gone, Kayla kept our kitties fed, gave one of them his medication, which we expected, but she also took lots of pictures and sent updates about her time with them. And gosh, I loved these updates! They were detailed, and some made me laugh, these updates also kept me from worrying about my pets during a time when I had a lot going on. I would absolutely request Kayla again and I would certainly recommend her to anyone who needs a pet sitter. We came home to happy and well cared for babies!”


“Ashley was amazing with our two cats. She’d always let me know when she was on the way over to our house and gave me an update on how the cats were. We'll definitely have her over again when we go out of town.”


About: • Adult and senior dogs or cats • Special needs (blind, diabetic, trouble walking)) • Quirky behaviors • Puppies that need lots of potty breaks are no problem I am 54, married, retired, and am available 24/7. When not pet-sitting, I care for three dogs at home, plus two sheep and two goats. I will keep your home in great condition, cleaning up after your pets and leaving no trace that I was there. I bring my own snacks!

“Marisha has taken care of our 3 cats several times. She is conscientious and excellent at comminicating. She has also been willing to feed community cats (at our request) that stop by. She has gone above and beyond on a couple of occasions. I will hire her again.”


“Maura accepted our last-minute request to provide drop-in care for our cats and bird when an unexpected trip came up. We trusted her from our first meeting with her and she did a great job! She communicated with us and sent photos from every visit. We will definitely reach out to her when we need to travel again!”


About: I have been pet sitting for family members, friends and even people recommending me to others since I was 15! I would love to watch your animals as well!! I also work at an animal eye doctor that I have been at for over 2 years now and love it! I’m not afraid of any animal or task and would totally enjoy the time to get to know your lovely pets :) I currently work for an animal eye doctor 5 days a week so I am looking for someone that needs me for the weekend! I can do drop ins after 6 or even early in the mornings before 7 if needed. I also want to offer dog walking on the weekends, Saturday and Sunday. I cannot take pets into my home because it would not work with my pets at home but I am comfortable staying at others homes to care for their animals and any other house tasks such as watering plants or any other job I am put up to!

About: Hi, I have had dogs and cats since I was 10 years old with generally more than 1 at a time since then. I love all dogs and cats. I grew up with schnauzers and then my parents got 3 Bostons who were absolutely the best. They now have a little Shih-Tzu and Boston/BullDog mix. I love these guys. I watch other dogs belonging family as well. All animals (dogs and cats) have always seemed to be drawn to me. I, myself currently have 4 long-haired kitties that I rescued. They are the loves of my life. I treat all animals will love and respect and of course speak to them in a special baby voice meant only for them. I would love to look after and take care of your babies when you need it. Reach out as I would love to get to know you and your babies. I currently work full-time in a fully remote role that allows me to work from my living room. So I have a lot of flexibility and time to care for animals. I have a fully fenced in yard with a covered patio at my home. My four cats use it more than I do most times.

About: years of hands on experience with dogs. I understand their behavior and signs of stress or illness. I take careful measures to insure gentle, positive and respectful handling My full time job I am a nurse. When i’m not at the hospital I have 4 days of free time I’d like to fill I will walk, play, feed, give meds etc. to yours animals. I will spend quality time with them and make sure they receive the care their owners would give. I am a dog and cat mom and know the importance of good pet sitters!

About: I have taken care of animals of all kinds, from dogs and cats to pigs and cows. I love any and all animals. my husband is getting tired of me asking for more animals so we compromised on me getting to love your babies as if they’re my own! All of my dogs I’ve had since they were 8 weeks old, so i’m very comfortable with puppies, potty training & basic command training. I’m a stay at home mama so I have plenty of time to spend with your babies. We love to spend time outside playing and enjoying nature! We have a nice, big fenced yard for the dogs to run and play. Plenty of toys and bones for everyone to share. My toddler absolutely loves to give hugs and snuggle the animals. If anyone were to not get along or need to be kept separate, I can absolutely accommodate! I am fully insured with pet boarding specific insurance. Your family members are protected with me. I am happy to provide you with the proof of insurance, if you prefer!

“I'm very grateful Tatum looked over my cats while I was away for a vacation. She did everything great and followed instructions well. The house was kept clean and the cats were fed on time. She made sure the cats are okay before leaving and provided me with updates through texts and pictures. She even went above and beyond for staying a few minutes to play with the kitties and to make them get used to her more. Would definitely recommend her if anyone needs a cat sitter and would definitely book her again if ever I need someone to look after my cats again. Thank you so much!”


About: I’ve taken care of many animals throughout my lifetime ranging from dogs, horses, pigs, goats and cats. A couple years ago I rescued my own dog & have really enjoyed the process of watching him grow. I’m recently had a lot more free time on my hands and would be available to watch your pet in the morning until early afternoon. I currently do not wish to board dogs at my place - but am willing to come to your place. If there are any special rules you have I request those be written down ahead of time!

About: I have taken care of pets within my own home for my entire life. Feeding, walking, and playing are second nature! Secondly, I have had almost 2 years of experience in a professional shelter environment, learning about dog body language, medication and it's administration, and cheap and effective enrichment ideas for all dog needs! With a passion in animal care and a revamped schedule I have found a lot of free time and would love to use that passion for those in need! Can watch both dogs and cats, have watched large groups, disabled animals and those with very specific needs/ medication requirements. I work full time on the weekends and go to school, I am mostly available during the week, but all hours are available within reason! I prefer to do sitting work at the clients house as my living situation is already full of animals. Having 3 dogs and 3 cats in my home, it is not wise to bring additional animals with minimal meeting beforehand. Therefore I am willing and able to watch any animal within your living situation, following whatever routines and local rules as needed!

About: With 10 years of experience as a dog sitter, I bring a deep understanding of canine behavior and needs. My passion for dogs drives me to provide attentive, loving care, ensuring that each dog feels safe and comfortable in my care. Whether it's adhering to specific feeding schedules, providing exercise, or simply offering companionship, I am dedicated to making every dog's experience positive and stress-free. My extensive experience allows me to handle a wide range of situations with confidence and compassion, making me a reliable and trusted choice for dog sitting. As a stay-at-home wife, pet care seamlessly fits into my weekly schedule, allowing me to dedicate ample time and attention to each dog's needs. My flexible routine means I can accommodate specific feeding times, walks, and play sessions, ensuring that every dog in my care receives the consistency and affection they deserve. Being at home allows me to provide a nurturing environment where dogs can feel comfortable and loved throughout the day. As a pet caretaker, I prioritize giving each dog my undivided attention, ensuring they feel valued and secure in my care. Staying home through out the week allows me to dedicate the time and focus necessary to meet their needs, whether it’s through play, walks, or simply being there for comfort. My years of experience have built a foundation of trust with both pets and their owners, as I consistently demonstrate reliability, responsibility, and genuine love for every dog I look after. You can trust that your dog will be in caring, capable hands, with their well-being as my top priority.
