Marti was truly outstanding with our pup! From the very first visit, she was thoughtful, attentive, and incredibly communicative. She made sure he was well cared for through multiple walks each day—even working around storms and hot weather to make sure he was comfortable and safe. She gave us regular, detailed updates, complete with sweet observations about his mood, habits, and how he was doing while we were away. Our dog can be a bit particular, but Marti clearly understood him and made sure he got just the right balance of activity, affection, and quiet time. She even noticed when he was a little more anxious and made sure to help him walk it off and settle with his favorite kong. We came home to a happy pup, and we felt at ease knowing he was in such good hands. We'd absolutely recommend Marti to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and communicative caregiver. She's the best!

About: I enjoy spending time with dogs and cats because they truly bring joy to each day. I’m flexible, communicative, patient and caring, and I’ll always make sure your pets feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’ve spent several years caring for my family’s dogs and cats, as well as pets of my own. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know them and giving them the care and attention they need. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk, a calm companion, or regular check-ins, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, cared for and well looked after. I’m happy to provide updates and photos during visits so you always know how your pet is doing. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets! I currently have a full-time job but have time for pet care on my days off or before/after work. I enjoy going on nature walks with my sister’s dogs. I visit my sister often and always enjoy seeing and walking her two shih tzu’s. They always make my days brighter and lift my mood. Whenever she is out of town, I stay at her house to dog sit. I enjoy taking them on walks around the neighborhood, make sure to keep them company and play with them.

About: I've had dogs all my life and I've taken care of local neighbors' dogs for years including walking, feeding, playing, and occasionally training. I am working part time at most 3 days a week so I will be available half of the week! I usually go to work in the evenings so on the days I work during the week I will be able to care for pets during the morning and day. I have three dogs at home and am living at home for the summer so I unfortunately will not be accepting pet care inside the house

About: I have always had dogs in my life from family dogs to favorite neighborhood dogs. After adopting our dog Rory in 2022, I came to truly understand the dedication that goes into caring for a dog and the many benefits of having such a wonderful companion. I am committed to bringing the same patience and attention to every pup I care for. I am experienced with separation anxiety and know the importance of being sure your dog feels safe and secure while you are out. I have the summers off so am able to care for dogs throughout the week and weekend. During the school year I am available on weekends and some holidays. I strive to build a trusting relationship with all dogs I interact with. I like to incorporate “sniffy” walks to allow dogs a chance to explore and engage their senses.

Our regular sitter was unavailable but Courtney was able to provide stellar service on very short notice. My cat is VERY shy; Courtney was patient and attentive and Ari was very comfortable around her almost immediately. Highly recommend this sitter, and we will definitely be using her again! Thank you Courtney!

About: I have been caring for animals since 2018 and have experience working at multiple dog boarding facilities. At one facility, I worked for over six years, where I cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. My experience includes feeding, cleaning, supervising playtime, and ensuring dogs feel safe and comfortable in a structured environment. I also have personal experience caring for senior dogs, which has helped me develop patience and attentiveness to animals with special needs. In addition to dogs, I have experience caring for rabbits, guinea pigs, and parakeets, and I understand the importance of providing gentle, calm care for small animals. My schedule is flexible, and I am currently available for dog walking, drop-in visits, and small animal care throughout the week. I am available during weekdays and have limited availability on weekends. I do my best to accommodate each client’s schedule and provide consistent, reliable care. I keep my schedule organized to ensure every animal receives the time and attention they deserve. The safety and well-being of every animal in my care is my top priority. I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, behavior, and needs to ensure they feel comfortable and secure. I provide a calm, quiet environment and always supervise animals closely during my care. I am attentive to details such as feeding instructions, medications (if needed), and safe handling. I also make sure pets are kept in a clean, secure space and follow any specific instructions provided by their owner. My goal is to create a stress-free experience where both pets and owners feel confident and at ease.

About: I have had several dogs but do not currently have any pets. I have had to give medicine to dogs and lots of experience with puppy “accidents”. I’m a teacher, so during summer and breaks I have lots of free time. I have two boys, both of whom love animals. They would love to have a pet visit our home. I can only house-sit when I don’t have my children with me, but can board an animal anytime. Important to note that during the school year my Friday availability is evening only. I have a fenced yard. At my home, I can almost guarantee your dog or cat would get to sleep in a child’s bed and be loved like family. At your home, I would respect any rules you have set.

I will stick as closely to your current routine as possible and do my best to treat your pet and your home with the utmost kindness and care.

Lindsey did a great job, taking care of our dog and cats! We contacted her on short notice and she came and did a meet and greet and understood what we needed done. When we arrived home we had a happy pup, who had received his meditations, and cats who didn’t care that we left or came home.😂
