“Rachel is awesome! She has been regularly helping us with midday walks. She’s been extremely reliable and flexible when our plans change. I’m super grateful for the help.”


“Kami communicated very well with us. Our cat seemed happy to have someone pop in on her while we were out of town. She provided photos during her drop in visit, gave her some cuddles, cleaned the litter box, checked the water, and fed her.”


About: I have experience with both older and younger dogs, including dog-sitting rescues and providing overnight care. Messes do not scare me and I am more than happy to keep you in the loop. As a college student, I may be away for hours, but my schedule allows me to attend to tasks between classes. My weekends are a lot more free and flexible. If you have any concerns about this, please reach out. At your home, I will abide by all rules and suggestions, ensuring your pets receive the best care possible. This means feeding schedules, walking routines, overnight stays, and more.

About: It’s always extremely important for my family to find a reliable and loving dog sitter for our dog, and I know how stressful it can be & want you to feel at ease while your pup is in my care. Our dog is very welcoming when it comes to having another dog in the home, and we will always treat your dog like our own. I want you to feel at ease knowing your dog is in a safe place and being well taken care of while you are away. Your vacation is also their vacation! I work full time but have the option to work from home if needed or flex my schedule. I can make whatever I need work to fit into our routine of caring for our dog, Nala and your dog too! We have a fenced in yard and will let the dogs run the yard for as long as they want. Making sure they feel loved and comfortable as they are in their own home.

“Erin was a wonderful sitter who I'd recommend to anyone, and plan to use again. My dog unexpectedly acted out while we were gone. My dog was an anxious escape artist. Erin handled it well with appropriate suggestions and collaborated with me to find the best solution. Erin was flexible, and was able to stay with my dog more often, and at different times than originally planned to help with her anxiety. Erin gave me frequent, and detailed updates.”


About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life, I have dog sat for my sisters and friends. I can feed, walk, and bath them. I care for my pets as if there my children and I would do the same for any pet! I got to college online and work a full time job Monday through Friday, when I’m not working I’m home with my pets! They enjoy relaxing with me and my Niko loves car rides! I can do drop in visits and dog walking on weekends any times! Message me and we can definitely work something out! I live in an apartment so I don’t have much of a yard so when it’s not super hot I take Niko on walks let him run around, he enjoys laying outside and chillin. He has so much fluff the heat gets to him ☺️


About: I am a dog groomer by trade. I love animals and enjoy all the time I get to spend with them. I do not see walking or training dogs as a job but rather a hobby. I can guarantee that your dog will be in great hands with me as i will care for him/her as my own. Whether it is just a walk or major training needs I will work tirelessly to make you and your pet happy. The health and happiness of a pet means more than can be imagined and I know that without our beloved animals we would be lost. Feel free to contact me with any questions you may have. Thank you! I do work full time however this is a family gig where we all chip in. There will always be someone with availability to provide care for your dog just as we would our own. I have a fenced-in yard where the dogs can play either by themselves or in a group that fits their personalities. I offer walks twice a day if playing in the yard isn't enough. Depending on length of stay I offer a free bath. Depending on dog's coat I offer daily brushing. If I go to a client's home I will treat their home with the same respect I expect someone to treat my own. I leave everything the way I found it (unless there is a dog mess on the floor, I will clean that up).

About: I previously worked for my local humane society for over a year, caring for a wide variety of animals ranging from young kittens and puppies to senior pets. I also have experience with birds, rats, and rabbits. During that time, I cared for animals with special needs, administered daily medications, and worked with pets who were highly reactive or needed extra patience and understanding. I'm also a proud foster fail—I adopted both a tiny kitten I fostered at just a few weeks old and an older, grouchy cat who stole my heart. I work part-time and am very flexible. Caring for animals fits naturally into my routine, and I love spending quality time making sure pets feel happy, safe, and loved. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. I make sure the environment is clean, secure, and comfortable, with spaces where pets can relax and feel safe. I keep toxic items and hazards out of reach and follow any specific routines or rules you share. When caring for pets in your home, I respect your space and your pet’s routine, from feeding schedules to favorite toys and walking routes. I always keep a close eye on pets, use positive reinforcement, and take extra care with animals who have special needs, medications, or reactivity.

About: If you’re looking for someone who loves taking care of animals, you’ve found your match! I love giving pets the love they give to humans back to them! Since I was 10 I loved caring for animals, playing with them, and attending to their needs. I’ve taken care of puppies all the way to elderly dogs. I also have taken care of younger cats all the way to elderly also. No matter the age or size of the animal, I’d love to help care from them when you’re away! I currently coach high school football in the afternoons and evenings on the weekdays, so I’m available in the mornings for weekdays and free on weekends usually after 1. Sunday I’m free all day. I enjoy coming to the families home so the pet feels more comfortable with the environment. I don’t mind staying the night or working longer hours also.

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats from a young age. I am very comfortable with large breeds such as German Shepards and Labs. Also, I have an 11 month Cocker Spaniel so I can care for any sized breed! Additionally, I have a 4 year old cat and am happy to help look after kitties! I am happy to help with any special needs or requests as long as instructions are provided. I work full time but have a good mix of availability. Tuesday-Thursday I am available for early morning and late night visits. Monday and Fridays, I am available for early morning, early evening, and late night visits. Lastly, I am available all day on Saturday and Sundays. I am happy to take your pet on a long walk or to a dog park! If your dog plays well with others, I am more than happy to host a joint play date with my puppy. I am open to most requests as long as it is compatible with my schedule that week!

About: I have been helping take care of dogs since I was in high school. I have many years experience with home and pet sitting. I can also administer medications including vaccines. I am currently looking to do pet sitting full time and have a very open schedule, so I am very flexible in what days I can sit. I will no longer be accepting clients if it is within a week of booking, as that does not give me time to properly look into who I accept as a client. I am also requiring a meet and greet at least a week in advance to see if your dogs are properly trained and will listen to basic commands, and to make sure the house is clean and liveable for the time I will be there. I plan on utilizing what is available at your house, but I also plan on taking your pet for car rides or to parks to enjoy the outdoors, if that is something they are allowed. I can’t stay at a house or get dogs out of a house with cats. I am highly allergic to them, so it has to be a dog only household. I am currently only able to stay at your home as an option, as my household has dog unfriendly dogs.

About: My family grew up with a cat only because my brother snuck it into the house one day. My siblings and I always pet sat for others though. I was lucky enough to take care of my roommates pitbull when I got older. My wife and I now have 3 dogs, 2 cats, and lots of plants. We love when our cane corsos, pitbulls, german shepards and kitten cousins come over. I will love your pets like my own. Whether that pet be a dog, cat, snake, plant, or other living thing. I’m a school nurse, so I am available early mornings and afternoons. I also have availability on lunch breaks and weekends. Feel free to reach out to see how I can accommodate your schedule. I work in the most trusted profession. A profession of caring and empathy. I will follow your rules for your pets. All pets outside will be monitored at all times. Common sense will be followed when opening doors to prevent escaping pets. Baby gates, doors, and leashes will be used as needed. The house is big enough to accommodate most pets. Meet and greets are required to make sure your pets get along with my pets when staying at my house.

About: Hi, I currently own two dogs and five cats. Over the years I’ve owned many different types of animals including dogs, cats and guinea pigs. I love doing lots of activities and training with my pets. My two dogs have completed obedience training and I’ve learned training skills from these classes. They also compete in dog sports including agility and dock diving competitions. I have pet sat previously for about a year and have watched dogs, cats, chinchillas, and sugar gliders. I am also comfortable giving needed medication to any pets. When I pet sit I make sure your pet feels happy and loved. Whenever I stop by I always play with them for a long time as well. I’d love to help take care of your animals while you’re gone! I am available for summer jobs before heading off to college. My schedule is flexible, so let me know your needs and we can figure something out. In the clients home for pet sitting, I make sure all animals are healthy and are doing well every time I check in. I always play with pets that need to be played with. I always follow the rules set in place by the client of feedings and house rules. The more information the better, including safety information such as your vet for emergencies if needed.

About: I have gained experience with working in the community. I enjoy taking care of animals. Whether it’s playtime, cuddle time, or just providing a calm presence Currently have open schedule. I am working as an RN part time. I would like to spend more time with animals after working as a nurse for 10 years I have space in my apartment if needed. I am not able to over night stay animals. There is a dog park at my complex.

“Amelia was awesome. Very communicative and even my shyest came out for her eventually. She even moved some of my plants to a different room at my request because the cats were playing with them. Will definitely use her in the future next time I’m away!”


About: I’ve had very many different types of dogs in our family through the years. I’ve raised dogs from 6 weeks old to senior. I have experience with giving dogs medicine and following special meal schedules. I have stayed over with dogs and cats for family and friends while they were on vacation, etc. for 20+ years. I absolutely love all animals and promise to love yours too! This is my only source of employment so I can be really flexible and accommodating to your needs and your pet’s needs. Whether it be for potty breaks, taking your pet for a walk, abiding by food/medication schedules, or extended stays. I am available to sit in your home to keep your pet feeling as comfortable and safe as possible. I am familiar with building trust with dogs as well. If you don’t need a daily/nightly sitter, you can count on me to potty your dog at a minimum of every 4 hours.

“Christin was great! She helped us with our cats while we were away and got our mail in also, was great with communicating.”


Michael C.
“Michael looked after my cat Moosh and my dog Mandy while I was away for a week. Not only did Michael make sure they were taken care of, and that my place wasn’t destroyed by them while I was gone, but also they didn’t seem as excited to see me upon my return. It was obvious they were love while I was gone. Mandy has to have insulin injected every day, and as a nurse, Michael was as perfect candidate for the job. Additionally, upon my return I found that Michael went above and beyond- he took out the trash and loaded the dishwasher. Wow! This allowed me the opportunity to relax upon my return. I would 100% recommend Michael to care for any pet.”

Andrea R.
“Andrea has cared for several of my friends’ dogs over the years, so I knew I could trust her with my own pets. She’s incredibly attentive and experienced—especially with my rabbits, who have very specific and finicky care needs. Andrea is detail-oriented, reliable, and always keeps me updated with texts and photos, which gives me peace of mind when I travel for work. Best of all, my rabbits absolutely adore her and genuinely look forward to seeing her!”
