“Chelsea has been absolutely wonderful with our golden retriever puppy. She is so kind and attentive, and you can tell she truly loves spending time with him. He is always so excited to see her, and it gives us so much peace of mind knowing he is in such caring hands. Her updates and photos are always sweet and detailed, and we love getting little glimpses of the fun they have together. We are so grateful to have found her!”


“Sarah did an excellent job caring for our two cats over the course of a week. She communicated with us daily, sent updated pictures, provided clean water and food, and maintained the litter box. We highly recommend Sarah and would love to work with her again!”


“This was our 2nd time having Mary take care of our dog. She was extremely thoughtful and went back to our house to let our dog back in when it started drizzling outside!! We are so appreciative!”


About: I've been caring for dogs for over 10 years—starting with family and friends, and growing into something I truly love doing. I’m that go-to person when someone needs a last-minute sitter, and I always show up. I see pets as family, and I treat them with the same love, patience, and care I'd want for my own. Whether it's a walk, drop-in, or an overnight stay, you can count on me to be reliable, trustworthy, and to give your pet all the attention they deserve. I’m completely free right now, so your pet gets my full attention! Even once I start working, I’ll still make time—I've always made it work. I treat your home with the same care and respect I’d want in mine—clean, calm, and secure. I follow your routine, keep doors locked, and always double-check everything. I keep your pet safe, happy, and stress-free, and I leave things just as I found them (or better!).

About: I work at daycare with all kinds of dogs and cats including seniors. I have a big passion for animals and know how to administer medication if needed. I’ve helped out family and friends with their pets including feeding, potty breaks, playing outside with them, etc. I’m currently working part-time at doggy daycare, so I can spend time with your furbabies. I’m also in school for vet tech but I make time for the babies always! For clients, I usually stick to schedule with their feeding, potty breaks, etc. I like to keep their food and water bowls clean every time to prevent them from being sick. I take them outside for potty breaks and play with for about 30-40 minutes unless it’s too hot or cold. I also like to keep the owner updated on how their pets are doing and send pictures.

About: I have been around pets since I was 5 years old. It all started with a rabbit until we gained a cat and a dog. At one point in time, my house had 2 dogs and 11 cats (indoor/outdoor). I currently have 2 dogs and 1 cat (senior). Throughout the past 25 years, I have cared for all aged dogs and cats with various ailments and illnesses. I have provided medications, participated in obedience and behavior trainings, and own an abundance of toys and treats for dogs. I also own a harness, leash and catpack for our cat and am very familiar with both indoor and outdoor cats. Additionally, I have many cat toys ranging from cat scratch posts and shoe laces to electronic interactive toys and laser pointers, as well as catnip and treats. Most recently I lived and helped care for a 2-year-old rabbit, so I feel confident in my bunny skills again. Unfortunately, fish are not my forte and if anything more than feeding is required, I am probably not your gal. Currently, I work full time as a travel nurse which requires 3, 12-hour shifts a week, the other 4 days of the week I am free to love on and adventure with my pets and yours! Outside of work, I am what some would consider a gym rat and I love the outdoors. I get my two pups and cat out as much as possible, as long as the weather permits (they hate the rain). Otherwise, we are pretty consistent with playing and training inside the house. I am very flexible with scheduling around times that you may need and I have a car that provides reliable transportation. My husband works remotely with occasional odd-end jobs but when he's home, he is available to care for our fur babies so I can focus on yours! I have an open fully fenced in back yard, but just an 8-10 min drive from a park to walk and play. As previously mentioned, I have two dogs, one puppy-ish (18 mo) who would love to play with your dog, and an older dog who can be a bit grumpy but well-behaved when mom/dad are around (can also be separated in a separate area of the house if that is more comfortable for you), and a cat that stays primarily in his own area of the house. We have extra leashes, plenty of poop bags, lots of toys, and even more love for your furry friends.

“Kendall did a great job & would recommend her to drop ins anytime! First using her and she mentioned storms were coming into the area right after she left on her update (which were NOT in the forecast!). My little girl is terrified of thunder and Kendall turned around and went back to give her her anxiety med. Will be calling on her again!!!!!”

“Hannah communicated with us to give updates! Our pups for the first time didn't have to suffer for our out of town trips. They were safe and happy. Hannah is great and really understood how much our pups mean to us.”


About: I've spent my childhood taking care of animals, whether it be your occasional dog or cat, or something as rare as a horse, and pretty much anything in between! I pick up on an animals social ques very fast, whether they be the well known ones or maybe something your animal does that is unique for them. I deal with all ages of animals, including seniors and babies, and can administer medication if needed. I also deal with all behaviors of animals, whether they be aggressive, or a shy baby, or simply just one with social anxiety. I work well with routines if your animal has one, such as feeding times or potty breaks if you know your animals schedule! I have an open schedule, but even if I didn't I'd much rather spend it with fur babies! I can work at any time, on any days, and have a flexible schedule where I can be booked the day of. I fully believe accidents are accidents, so if your fur baby may have an accident I would be more than happy to clean your space as well as theirs. I'm also a believer in having a clean dish for eating time or a clean area for an animal to have fun and be free in without worrying about making a mess. If your fur baby makes a mess of any sorts, I promise to clean it up!

“I can't praise our Lindsey enough for the incredible care she provided to our beloved Charlie. Her genuine love for animals was evident from the start. Charlie was not just looked after; he was showered with attention, affection, and daily walks that kept him happy and healthy.
