“Wendy was amazing with our crew. She was prepared for our meet and greet, and went above and beyond to adjust her schedule for us. She’s been an absolute life saver for our family and all our last minute needs. The pets adore her and we feel safe leaving them in her hands. We couldn’t recommend her more!”

“Christiana was amazing! She handled our house full of animals like a champ. They loved her and she made sure that we were well informed while we were away with updates and photos. She even made sure the house was clean when we got home since the dogs like to destroy it and left us a note and small gift! We could not have asked for better! We will definitely be using her again.”

“Emma was great! She was flexible and understanding when I had to make some changes to my trip plans, took great care of my blind senior dog that requires meds and special attention, and she sent updates and pictures every visit. I know Dakota loved the company and having her take care of him while I was gone!”

About: i've been taking care of fur babies since i was young. Anytime, neighbors, family, and friends needed help caring for their pets, I was there! I will care for your babies as if they're my own. Pet Sitting/Care is currently my full-time job. I'm always accepting new house sits and drops ins, l make sure to update my calendar every couple of days. I do like to do meet & greets before any new sits/drop ins, even if it's just a quick video chat. I don't currently offer boarding services but If i did, I would make sure to your pet is as comfortable as possible in my home. In clients homes, I will play with your pets, and take them on as many walks as needed for them to burn off energy. I will feed on time and keep your pets schedule as normal as possible.
“Amazing experience with Lillian. She went out of her way to provide care and comfort to our pup over the holidays, giving us peace of mind while out of town. Definitely recommend her and will use her in the future.”

“Sophia was a great sitter, followed guidance and always sent the cutest pictures of our furbabies! She was reliable and gave our two cats and 70 pound dog lots of attention and treats while we were gone.”

“Samantha did such a great job visiting my cats who are very demanding. She really does a thorough and reliable job and is very kind. She communicates in a timely fashion which is great”

“Ryann did a fantastic job following instructions and even going above and beyond. She managed to keep our Houdini cat in and the pictures she sent showed happy cats. I will definitely book her again.”

“Hannah made me feel so safe leaving our puppies during a really hard time in our lives. We were in the process of moving but had to be at a wedding. Our dogs were freaked out about the total lack of anything in our house & then their parents left of top of that??? Hannah swooped in and ensured that with each visit she sent incredibly detailed information about their activities, what she did to take care of them & at least 4 pictures :) what a relief. I could not recommend Hannah highly enough. 5 stars seems too few ❤️”

“Great communication and quickly responds back to any requests. Always come back to a happy doggo. Listens and respects my dogs needs and mine about the property and any changes. Definitely recommend!”


About: I have had dogs my whole life. I have also sat pets for many years for my friends and neighbors. I have worked as a dog bather so I have experience handling dogs of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments. I am also willing to bathe, brush, shave paw pads/mats and do nails for your dog, the rate is under drop in visits but that is for everything I just listed if you just need one service we can talk about that 😁 (rate will also change depending on the size of the dog). I volunteer at animal rescues so I am very familiar with rescue animals and accommodations they may need. I love any and all animals. I recently started working with cats at my rescue and am willing to learn more about them. I am recently home from college for the summer. I am available all day everyday for drop-ins, house sitting, walks, and basic grooming services. When caring for pets in a clients home, I follow their normal routine as consistently as possible. I make sure they have water, food on time, bathroom breaks, playtime/exercise, and lots of love. For walks I pay attention to how the dog behaves and set my pace, energy, and length of walk to best fit them. For drop-ins and house sitting I make sure the pet gets playtime, basic care, and companionship based on their routine. I have experience with everyday pet care and have also bathed dogs I have cared for when needed. I aim to make pets feel safe, relaxed, and loved while their owner is away.
About: I have fostered 3 dogs, hosted a Sniff Spot in my 1.5 acre backyard (a private dog park rentable by the hour) and successfully trained the one dog I raised. Throughout my experience with dogs I have done a lot of research (read books watched videos and took a class) on how to train and read dogs’ body language. I am a gig worker so I have a lot of free time during the week. Therefore, I’m able to spend quality time with your pup to offer the care and attention they deserve. With a wide open yard, a pond and critters to chase your dog won’t get bored here! I have a fenced in 1.5 acre backyard with a seasonal pond. I like to crate pups inside the house when I’m not present. Regular feeding and potty breaks with some mental stimulation mixed in. And of course lots of pets and belly scratches!
About: I'm a huge animal lover, and have had everything from cats and dogs to ferrets and fish! I've always watched over other people's animals for as long as I can remember and love every moment of it! From cuddling with a lazy fur baby to going on long runs to let out some energy, I've always been able to match any pets energy! I am a full time college student currently studying at NCTC! I'm usually free for the most part if not in class or the weekends where I get most of my studying and homework out of the way! I'm always willing to abide by any house rules you may have or areas that are off limits or need extra eyes on. I'm more than happy to crate dogs and make sure cats try not to scratch up furniture!
About: I really treat your child (yes pets are children) like my own. I want them to feel at home and happy and safe while you’re away! I work from home, so I can work anywhere! I am in FL for a few weeks and do not have my cat, so I can house sit easily :) My schedule is very flexible for those with needy pets! Whether they need a walk or extra food and snuggle time, I am available! I went the let’s to be as comfortable and as happy as possible! If the dog or cat likes to sleep in my bed, they are welcome! I know what it’s like to have a sitter watch my pet. They are in such good hands!!
