“I cannot say enough good things about how well Abbey took care of not only our baby boy Luca but, we walked into our home after the trip to find our house in immaculate condition!! When we checked in on a daily basis, Abbey would send me pictures and tell me how the day went. Luca was so worn out daily from play time that he slept like a rock when it was bedtime. I am definitely a returning pet parent! THANKS ABBEY!!!”


“What a blessing it is to know your pet is comfortable and happy when you receive a video of them interacting and playing with the sitter like they were playing with you. Anyu is awesome! She took great care of our high energy dog, handled the late night barking and bonded with her like one of the family. We were comfortable when we first met you and able to relax on our vacation. Thank You again Anyu we will definitely be thrilled to have you house sit/pet sit for us for our future vacations.”


About: Since I began offering my services, I have taken care of various dogs with various needs. The safety and happiness of each animal are my top priorities, and there is no job too big or small. I have experience with young pups, kittens, and senior animals, and I love them all the same. Medication, special diets, and niche rituals are no problem for me, and I can ensure this will be your pet's home away from home. I recently graduated from college and am home most of the day while I search for a career post-grad and conduct freelance work online. I will have plenty of time for walks, outside enrichment, and playtime to ensure your pet is well cared for. I have a large, fenced-in yard perfect for playing fetch or relaxing sunbathing. I do not have pets, so any animal boarding in my home would receive all of my attention (and all the belly rubs and ear scratches). My neighborhood is quiet and low-traffic, perfect for long walks. Pets are allowed on all furniture, and I have plenty of room if your pet requires a crate.

“We are grateful we found Stephanie to watch our dogs and always know they are in good hands. Our dogs can take a bit to warm up to people, but Stephanie made sure to spend a lot of time with them so that they were comfortable!”


About: I’ve been caring for Dogs for the last 12 years from all kinds of breeds. I’m experienced with daily walks, feeding with their schedule, and keeping them active and happy! I am currently in the airforce, I am available between Sunday, mondays and Tuesdays to spend time with your pups. I’m also available mornings and nights or whatever works for you:) I will make sure they go on plenty of walk and go outside. They also will get all the love and attention they need. I will also make sure they always have a source of water!

About: I grew up with pets so I have lots of experience. i will walk them every other hour for toilet and have some play time. I'm currently working a part time, so ill have plenty of time to play with your pup! I'm available for boarding any time you guys need a sitter. I have two dogs which are very friendly and playful with other dogs but I won't have them together unless you want them to gradually get to know each other.

“Ava watched my two dogs and she was amazing! Super responsive and took such great care of them. She watched my animals during a really stressful time of moving and she put my mind at ease and made the whole experience so great. Definitely recommend her!!”


About: Hi, I’m Mali! I’ve been caring for animals since I was 11 years old, starting with my own dog, Rajah, who’s now a happy 14-year-old senior. I’ve trained both Rajah and my younger pup, Ripley, as service dogs, so I have plenty of hands-on training experience. I also have the joy of loving and caring for 2 amazing cats. When I was younger, my friend and I even started a little neighborhood grooming service, and since then, I’ve cared for countless dogs and other pets during my time working on a farm. I also have five years of experience as a veterinary technician, four of those in emergency care, so I’m comfortable with pets of all ages and health needs. Currently, I’m enrolled in Penn Foster to become a certified dog trainer and hope to open my own pet training business soon. Your pets will be in loving and knowledgeable hands with me! I’m currently working full-time at a job that has a set schedule that repeats every two weeks. In week one, I work Monday, Tuesday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. In week two, I work Wednesday and Thursday. With this schedule, I have quite a lot of off-time. I can even make myself available before and after my shifts on the days I work if necessary. I would never let any pet go without the care they need and deserve! I currently have 3 dogs and 2 cats. Because I want them to have the most excellent life, I have researched and tailored each one of them the best meal plan to suit their individual needs while staying in a range I can afford. Each animal gets fed, what sometimes feels like a gourmet meal, twice a day with different supplements, toppers, and portions. I have extensively researched, observed, and put into practice what each of my animals needs and wants so they all have slightly different routines. For example, my two senior dogs don’t want or need as much exercise as my puppy. Training is a part of every day with the dogs and cats as learning is an indefinite endeavor for humans and animals alike and does wonders for mental enrichment. I would care for all client pets as much as my own in exactly the manner the client prescribes. I am currently not in a place to watch client pets in my home but am more than willing to commute to the home where the wonderful pet is. I prioritize safety, happiness, and comfort of all pets. I follow all rules and instructions left by clients. After all, it’s the client who knows their animals best. I believe clients should be able to trust that their pets will be treated with the utmost care and kindness in events that they can’t be there themselves.

“Zoe went above and beyond for my puppy! She sent numerous pictures and kept me posted throughout the day. She followed the puppy schedule we had, which we could tell because he’s exhausted. I would definitely recommend Zoe to anyone!”


About: I have always loved animals & they have been a large part f my life! Big or little, Old or young I can’t wait to take care of your most precious family member! I’m currently in college so I have plenty of time to pet sit especially with summer coming up! I live close to town and would be there no issue! I have experience in kenneling & food separation. I have no problem following the rules and guidelines set by my clients for their pets particular needs.

“Kallie did such an amazing job with my babies. I have never gotten a pet sitter I didn’t know personally but she made it so worry free and sent so many updates and pictures! I am a crazy pet mom but she exceeded my expectations! Will be using her again in the future!”


About: What sets me apart from other animal sitters is my deep understanding of pets at every life stage from playful puppies to sweet senior animals and my calm, patient approach to care. I’ve worked with dogs and cats of all temperaments and sizes, and I tailor my care to meet each animal’s unique needs. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I build my schedule around the animals in my care. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or overnight stays, I’m reliable and consistent. I keep a flexible calendar to accommodate everything from quick drop-ins to longer stays, and I always make sure pets get the attention, exercise, and comfort they need. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat the space with the same respect I give the pets. I follow all instructions closely—from feeding and walk routines to any house rules like crating, restricted areas, or medication needs. I always keep the environment clean, calm, and safe locking doors, checking gates, and making sure pets are never left unattended in risky situations.

About: I have had the privilege of having been able to care for my two best buds since they were pups for the past 14 years. Buddy, a shitzhu, and Zeus, a pitbull, were inseparable. We have been through potty training, teething, the woes of senior dog care, and the heartbreaking finality of letting them cross over the rainbow bridge. I wouldn't trade my time with them for anything. I feel confident your furbabies will have a great time in my care and have no doubt in my ability to care for them! We will be the best amigos! I work full time but my schedule is flexible enough to allow me to work from home if needed and pop in for whatever needs your pups will need. I'll have cameras in the living area to make sure they are happy and content when I am not home and have a fenced in yard to allow them to play safely. I have a fenced in yard and have crates as well as gates that can be setup for their safe areas. A camera will also be set up for monitoring when I am not home.

About: I’ve taken care of a variety of dogs that belonged to my family as well as some friends, where I enjoyed walking, feeding, and playing with each pet. I also have helped some with a friend’s pet grooming service. I’ve always loved dogs and have a strong passion for caring for them. I work a part time job, which is scheduled mostly at night so I will have plenty of time during the day to care for your pets! My house is very pet friendly, but my yard does not have a fence. However I do not mind taking pets outside whenever they need to, and I live in a neighborhood perfect for walking!

About: I love cats and dogs of all sizes but am most comfortable with cats and small dogs! I can accommodate any needs for cats owners! I pet sit weekly and am looking to add a few more clients into my book and schedule! Let me know your needs and I’ll let you know my availability! If you’d like me to water plants I can do that too! Haha but I am comfortable with staying in your home if needed and preferred!
