“Emily did a wonderful job with my dogs and keeping me updated and sending photos of them! Our one dog is recovering from surgery and needed some special care and Emily managed fine! We will definitely contact her again for future needs.”

About: I have been taking care of animals for majority of my life, where I had Labs, English Springer Spaniels, many cats, and ferrets. During high school, I had two jobs that related to animal care, where I had worked at a dog walking place, and a Veterinary Hospital. During my time at the dog walking place, where I worked there during the summer of 2023, 2024, and 2025 I had walked dogs, taught them basic commands, and much more. At the Veterinary Hospital, I mainly helped with cleaning, although when needed, I helped restrain animals, distract them when getting vaccines, and much more. I am also a certified veterinary assistant. Lastly, during my high school career, where my high school had an Agri-Science program, I had helped with cleaning animal cages of many species, such as ferrets, birds, chinchillas, rabbits, and much more, along with running their doggy daycare. I am a current college student, so I am not available Monday- Thursday, due to classes. Although, I am willing to walk dogs Friday afternoon anytime after 3, Saturdays, and Sundays! At home, I have 4 cats and 2 dogs, so if your pet has any history of potentially having behavioral issues, let me know to make sure they are safe!
“Palma was a wonderful sitter for our Scottie, Pepper! Pepper immediately befriended Palma when she came to meet us, and we could tell Palma was enjoying playing with Pepper. We felt very comfortable leaving Pepper in her hands. While we were away, Palma was very communicative and sent photos of Pepper for us (which I love because I always miss her). She left our house in pristine condition! I highly recommend Palma.”

About: Hi, I’m Clara! Animals have been a central part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve worked with pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments—from tiny parrots to towering horses—and I’m confident handling everything in between. I have experience with: • Puppies and young dogs (training, socialization, and lots of patience!) • Caring for a dog with frequent seizures and special health needs • Working at a large dog rescue in Mexico, rehabilitating street dogs with behavioral and medical issues of all sizes • Administering oral medications and following detailed care instructions • Senior pet care with extra attention and gentleness (my dog is epileptic so I know how to administer all seizure meds and the full protocol) • Basic training and reinforcing good behavior • Horse care from years of working in barns (feeding, grooming, handling) • Volunteering for a year at a parrot rescue, learning about specialized bird care I’m active and outdoorsy, so I love taking energetic dogs for runs, hikes, or long walks—but I’m just as happy giving older or calmer pets plenty of snuggles. Safety, compassion, and keeping your pets happy are my top priorities, and I’ll always send plenty of photo updates while you’re away. I’m currently completely open and very flexible with scheduling. I’m not working another job right now, so I can adjust to your pet’s exact needs—whether that’s early mornings, late nights, or last-minute bookings. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. In my home, pets must be friendly with other dogs, as I have my own, and everyone’s well-being is a top priority. We have a fully fenced yard for safe play and fresh air, and I love going on regular walks to keep pets happy and healthy. I’m very routine-oriented, so I’ll follow your pet’s feeding, exercise, and care schedule exactly as you request—whether in my home or yours. I make sure each animal feels secure, loved, and stress-free, with plenty of supervision, enrichment, and affection.
“After having some bad luck with reliable/trustworthy petsitters in the past, I was having anxiety about my upcoming vacation and who I could trust my pets with. Eve was/is dependable, understanding, communicative and all of the other traits I was hoping to find in a sitter. She kept me in the loop and sent me pictures of my happy fur babies while I was out of the country. Eve's the best!!!”

About: I have been caring for animals at a very young age and feel that I have a special bond with all animals. I am a dog mom of two, and know how important our best pals are. I’m looking forward to meeting you and your furry friends. 😁 I’m currently a welding instructor on 3rd shift and have my days to myself (aside from sleeping). I am very flexible and hope I can help when it’s needed. I have 12 acres of land, two adult GSD and have my days to my self. I have the knowledge and passion to keep your pets happy and safe.
“Emily was AWESOME. Very communicative upfront and during her stay watching Koby. I came back from vacation to a happy dog and a perfect house. Will 100% rebook the next time I vacation.”


About: Hi!! I’ve had experience with animals for my entire life, and I’m looking for a bit more experience to build up my portfolio for veterinary school. This would be beneficial and enjoyable and open your schedule a bit. I’m currently at my normal job 4 days a week, on top of college, volunteering , and social obligations. I have 3 days off on which I can potentially be available. Im unavailable for any pet services in my own home, but I can commute to you and care for your pet at yours. I can do bathing, cage cleaning, walking, feeding, watering, playing, and any other necessary tasks. I will not stay anywhere overnight, but I can work with your animals for a few hours during the day.
“Jessica was very attentive to our 13 yr old dog, making sure he was well fed and got his multiple medications. She kept us updated with videos and photos. He was happy to see us when we got home but I think he also missed Jessica!”

About: I’ve had animals my whole life, now I’m ready to help take care of your four-legged friend. My home is their home and will be loved . I am available to watch your four-legged friend on the weekends, so you can enjoy a getaway and know your pet is in good hands I will always have your dog on a leash as that’s what I had to do for mine for 20 years just to be on the safe side. (Unless you have a fenced in yard )They will be treated as if they were my own and looking forward to helping out anyone who needs a warm caring home for their dog while you’re away?
“Madison took care of our 4 pets- 2 large dogs & 2 cats while we were out of town for 5 days. One of the dogs had just had surgery and ended up being somewhat challenging with his bandage. She made sure he was taken care of and kept us up to date the whole time. She went above and beyond! We will use her in the future!”

“If I could give 10 stars I would! Elizabeth is absolutely amazing with pets and I highly recommend having her care for your pets. She was so engaging with all of my animals and sent pictures and updates, she’s incredibly kind and genuinely cares for your animals. She even came another time for me when I asked last minute and she was more than helpful to us. I am very grateful I found her and her services and will be using her again. Thank you so much Elizabeth!!!! ~Alyssa, Ben, Lili, Max and Lana <3”

“It's always hard to leave the old boy, but Marie was outstanding and kept Bentley safe and warm as well as providing a constant presence. Marie is a neat and conscientious house guest and I would not hesitate to ask her back again.”
“Sarah and Mason took great care of our dog and two cats. When we arrived home after a week-long work trip, we arrived to find a lovely note letting us know when our dog was walked last, and when the animals were fed. Not only that the house was a clean as we left it and all the animals were super-happy. We will definitely use them again!!”
