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.
“So pleased the drop ins for Missy have gone so well! You have a gift of connection and caring for our sweet girlie dog! We’ll definitely be in touch again for more visits. Thanks!”

“John and Becky were wonderful and who I will ask for every time. They came over and met our two dogs and we knew right away they were dog people! They visited and loved on our dogs while we were gone and sent pictures. We felt completely comfortable leaving our babies in their hands and I highly recommend them!”

“Great sitter!!! She kept me updated the whole time and sent lots of photos of my cat. She made sure to play with him as well as ensure his food and water were always full.”

“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.”

“Amy really loves on our dogs like they are her own. If they’re happy when we’re gone we know that we can relax while on a vacation. She’s close by and that is a huge plus as well!”

“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!”

“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 ❤️”

“Samantha was amazing! She agreed to drop in visits for our two dogs, THE DAY OF, when another sitter fell through. She was attentive, provided details of every visit, and even brought in our mail unsolicited. I can't recommend her highly enough!”

“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.”


“So thankful for Heather watching our babies!! She spent time with them, tended to them, and provided us with updates and photos. Wouldn’t trust anyone else with our babies!”

About: I am very familiar with small to mid-size dogs. I have cared for a Beagle Pit and a Catahoula Leopard dog for nearly 12 years with my family. I am famillar with dog walking and feeding these dogs. I also helped care for my aunt's smaller dogs on my visits years ago, a Shih Tzu, Yorkshire tTrrier, and two other small dogs (all rescues). I am currently only involved in my studies so my schedule is more flexible. Starting mid-August I will have one 3-hour block Monday through Thursday that I will need to be in classes. Beyond this I am flexible! I can only care for pets in you/the client's home as my Catahoula Leopard (as the breed suggests) is extremely territorial. I can do drop-ins or walks for your doggy throughout the day.
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!!
“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: Over 20 years of my life I have had and cared for dogs among other animals. My husband and I love dogs and will give everyone lots of love and attention. We will get at least 1 walk per day. We will follow all instructions you provide along with sending you photo updates on how they are doing. I have had experience administering medication orally and injection. And, if they don't have skin allergies, I'll even give them a bath before they go home if they got messy while playing :). I am currently a stay at home mom for our children (10yo, 5yo, 4yo, 2yo and infant). So please allow our family to give you some piece of mind while you take a vacation at Christmas and other times during the year. Cheers! I am a stay-at-home mom of 5 young children who loves dogs. We are at home a lot of the time and can provide each animal with love and attention. We have a fully fenced in yard. In the summer if it gets super hot the majority of the playtime is indoors. We also love playing outside with the dogs weather permitting. We separate dogs for feeding and if we see any issues. They all get crated if we leave unless they are used to being out.
