“Lindsay is incredibly patient with our “spicy” cat. She is thorough, understanding, and a great communicator. I love the report she provides that accompanies many photos. We have booked Lindsay a few times and has proven to be dependable. Her sweet and calm demeanor is palpable and would highly recommend. Looking forward to working with her in the future.”

“Lizzy was punctual, reliable, and super sweet with our Lola. She provided updates and photos while we were away. Our dog felt very comfortable with her because she was so gentle and loving with our girl. Would 100% recommend her services to our friends and family.”

“Natalie was kind, compassionate, and reliable as a pet sitter. She cared for our senior cat for 12 days and took great care of him. We got updates at every visit and she took care of special requests. It was easy to communicate with Natalie, and we would trust her to care for our family pets again in the future! Thank you so much Natalie. ♥️”

About: This profile is for my mother Cheryl who will take great care of your dog(s). She’s always had pets and absolutely loves dogs and have taken care of dogs for family members throughout the years. I also worked at a pet hospital and pet boarding facility for two years. Therefore, I have experience administering medicine to dogs as well and will be there to help her when needed. Cheryl is my mother who is retired and enjoys pet sitting dogs full time. I enjoy pet sitting dogs with Cheryl at her home and going to do drop in visits for cats as well at their home. We both love dogs and cats, they are great! Cheryl has a large fenced yard, a sunroom and a 4-bedroom house to pet sit your dog in. She does not have any pets of our own to conflict with sitting your dog. She is comfortable watching your crate dog or house trained dog, and enjoys every moment with them.
“I’ve had Alma scheduled for drop ins for the past few months on the days I work. She is really good and patient with my teenage dog. She even helps with his training. She’s very communicative, replies fast and leaves a detailed note with good pictures. Very flexible with her schedule especially in hotter days. Never missed a visit. Able to do any of my requests. She has been very consistent with me.”

About: I've been taking care of dogs for many years now. I worked in the field as an animal care assistant for almost 8 years and also babysat many dogs and cats during those years. I do have experience, but most of all, I love every dog as my own and I will make sure they are well-taken care of, safe and happy. I currently work from home and I have a flexible schedule. I have a lot of extra time to watch, spend time and play with your pet. I have a fenced yard and big backyard for your pet to roam around, play and burn some energy. I currently do not have any other pet of my own so your fur baby will receive lots of attention and love.
“Natalie was great with my pup! She is very experienced with big dogs and seemed to calm my 9month old puppy. He enjoyed all the love and attention. She sent updates and was very communicative. Would highly recommend!”

About: Animals have been part of my life since I was ten, and cats especially are my specialty — I've raised them from kittenhood through their senior years, including hands-on experience with age-related health needs and end-of-life care. That depth of experience means I recognize subtle changes in behavior or health long before they become emergencies, and I'm comfortable coordinating vet visits when something comes up. What really sets me apart is how seriously I take the "sitting" part of house sitting. I don't just check boxes — I send regular photos and updates, keep the home exactly as I found it (dishes done, plants watered, trash handled), and treat every pet like my own. Past clients have described coming home to a spotless house and visibly happy, relaxed animals. For me, this isn't a side gig — it's a genuine extension of how I already care for the world around me. I work full-time, so drop-in visits fit best on Friday afternoons and weekends. For housesitting assignments, I'm available to stay overnight, giving pets consistent companionship around my workday for the full duration of the sit. I keep pets on their regular schedule—feeding, medications, and walks or playtime as needed—while making sure they get plenty of affection and interaction. I send pet parents regular updates so they can relax while away, and I keep the space tidy so animals stay in a calm, comfortable environment.
“Dustin is wonderful. I often need to make last minute plans. Dustin always quickly responds to out request to let us know his availability. Our dog, Hank, is aging and Dustin takes such good care of him. I never need to worry as Dustin is 100% reliable. I highly recommend Dustin as he is the best of the best”

About: I’ve taken care of many pets since I was 13 years old. My family, my friends, my peers know I love pets and would do anything for them. I’m currently working a part time job but I am open for any availability! Anytime works and I can work around your schedule as well. I have a pet friendly home, where they will be able to eat, drink, and play as well. I have a yard outside whereas they’d be able to potty outside.

About: I have three dogs and a Cat that I take care of currently. I'm a big dog person and have always had the responsibility of taking care of my dogs even at a young age. I care for four pets at home every day. I give all of them plenty of love, playtime, walks, exercise, and regular feeding. I love animals! I make sure my pets have space to play, have fun, exercise, and also are able to stay safe as well as be happy, and comfortable as much as they can every day.
“Stephanie was fantastic! She was punctual, polite, and very thorough, asking all the right questions to make sure our pets were well taken care of. She was incredibly kind and attentive to our dogs, and it was clear that she genuinely cared about them. Stephanie was a huge help while we were away on our camping trip. She not only took great care of our dogs, but also fed our pet betta fish and made sure Luna received her medication. Knowing that everything was being handled while we were away gave us great peace of mind. We really appreciate how responsible, caring, and communicative Stephanie was. We would definitely reach out to her again the next time we need someone to care for our pets. Highly recommend her!”


“Alayna was so gentle and patient with our girl when she was a nervous pup at the start of her visit. She is super responsive and communicative, and her experience with rescues shows. We definitely recommend her!”


About: Hi, I'm Kristina and I've been a veterinarian technician for 5 years! I treat every pet in my care with the same patience, affection, and devotion I give my own dog, Echo. I specialize in customized care tailored to your pet's unique personality—from energetic playtime and structured walks to gentle belly rubs and quiet companionship. I love keeping owners updated with frequent photo updates and detailed check-ins so you never have to worry while you're away. To ensure the safety and well-being of your pet, I require the assistance of a second person for administering injections or difficult medications if the animal becomes highly uncooperative. This helps keep stress low and procedures safe for everyone. I'm currently looking to sit for your fur babies part time while I'm out navigating a new work schedule for the time being Routine & Comfort: Keeps pets stress-free in their familiar environment by sticking strictly to their normal feeding, walking, and sleep schedules. Health & Safety: Precise administration of medications, daily litter/yard cleanup, secure handling, and close monitoring for any behavioral changes.
“Awesome! V&M are easy going, friendly professionals and all went perfectly. Mutts super happy, house in great shape, excellent pics. Made my partially stressful trip way easier. I'm so happy to find these guys and already planning the next booking!”


About: I've owned pets my whole life and spent my childhood living on a ranch with just about every farm animal you can name. Now, as an adult living a more suburban lifestyle, I'm happy to provide loving care for your dog and/or cat in a home-based, high attention environment. As a dog mom myself, I know how difficult it is to trust a stranger with your fur child and the importance of continuing the love and care your pet receives at home. I'm available for boarding on Friday, Saturday, and Sundays. My husband and I work mostly remote, so your fur baby will receive plenty of attention and companionship from both ourselves and our mini dachshund, Charlie! We have a small fenced-in backyard with concrete and turf for potty breaks. Overnight fur guests will have both indoor and outdoor access and can be crated in the downstairs living room during nighttime sleep hours. Blankets, toys, and preferred treats are welcome to help provide your pet with a sense of home.
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Pocket is $25

My dog adores April and even when months go by between visits he is so happy to see her. April is exceptional-very accommodating-very good communication and always friendly. I don’t need much help since I’m retired but occasions do come up and I go to April first.

Gillian is an extremely dependable and astute individual, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. From the moment she met my pups, it was clear she truly gets animals, she’s attentive, patient, and so loving with them. She kept me updated with the sweetest photos and notes, and I came home to two happy, calm, well cared for pups. You can tell she goes above and beyond in every little detail. I had complete peace of mind the entire time and will absolutely be booking with her again. Highly, highly recommend Gillian to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust!

Five stars isn't enough for Maria! She took care of our German Shepherd, Husky, and our flock of chickens while we were away, and she exceeded every expectation. Managing two high energy dogs alongside chickens is no easy task, but Maria handled it with complete ease, professionalism, and care. When we returned, all of our animals were happy, relaxed, and in perfect health.Finding someone trustworthy who can seamlessly handle both large dog breeds and farm animals is rare. Maria is a absolute gem, and we will definitely be booking her again. Highly recommended!

Tierra is great! Our pup was well cared for while we were gone for a family function. I asked her drop in one extra time because we weren’t going to be back when I thought we were, Tierra was very flexible and accommodating. Will book again, highly recommend!

I had such a great experience with Annie while I was away on vacation. She took such amazing care of Ripley and paid close attention to every little detail, making sure she was comfortable, happy, and well cared for the entire time. You can truly tell how much she genuinely cares for animals through the love and attention she gives them. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such good hands, and I’m so thankful for all the playtime, care, and updates she provided. Highly recommend! Will book again!
Ashley is a dedicated and caring pet sitter! My cat loved her and got some excellent quality time and enrichment from her visits. Ashley showed up and sent updates and photos every day. She is also diligent about asking questions to ensure the best care for your pets. Highly recommended.

Kathryn is seriously such a life saver. I had a flight delay, and desperately needed someone to let my dog out. She saved the day by doing a same day drop-in visit. She was there within an hour! She is extremely responsive, and followed instructions with care. My dog Koala took a liking to her. I will be booking with her in the future.
Brian took wonderful care of my girls while I was away again. It meant the world to know someone trustworthy was on top of their needs. He was diligent and communicative, checked in regularly, and gave them real attention. His updates, photos, and thoughtful communication about little matters along the way made it so much easier to relax. I came home to two very content pups and truly appreciated his care.
