“Haley was wonderful with my crazy pitty boy. She gave him so much love. She walked him and when back inside she would love on him and cuddle a bit before she leaves. I really like that. She even told him daily she loves him. Mel6ed my ❤️.”


“Katie did an amazing job with my pups. It was the first time leaving them with someone else taking care of them. She made me feel so comfortable about it and gave me updates and photos to let me know they were ok. On top of that the pups loved her. She did a meet and greet with them before hand and they picked her basically out of others I met. They wouldn’t leave her side when they first met her. She is such a sweet heart and I will definitely being using her again in the future. Thank you again Katie. You’re the best!”

About: Hi there! I’ve had dogs in my life for over 20 years and started pet sitting professionally about a year ago. I’ve cared for both dogs and cats. I’m reliable, easy to reach, and happy to keep you updated with photos and check-ins. Can’t wait to meet your furry friend! Pet care fits easily into my day, I work part time, just three days a week, so I have plenty of time and flexibility to care for pets. I’m used to planning around feedings, walks, and check-ins. I’ll always make sure your pet feels loved, cared for, and well looked after! Whether I’m caring for pets at my place or yours, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I do my best to follow their usual routines and make sure they feel secure and well cared for. I’m always mindful of special instructions, and I ensure that meals, walks, playtime, and any other needs are handled just the way they’re used to. If they’re staying with me, they’ll enjoy plenty of love, attention, and a cozy space to relax in.

“Stephanie has taken care of Toby, my pup, for 3 weeks and he immediately bonded with her when they met. I had surgery and couldn’t walk him and she has been such a blessing! I couldn’t have had a successful recovery without her help! Toby is a Lab/Hound mix and is 80 pounds of happy to see her everyday!”

“Anne was amazing with Ocean! She kept us up to date and sent over lots of pics. We are new puppy parents so we were super nervous about leaving her behind for the first time but Anne put our minds at ease. She was awesome!”

About: I've been my neighbors' go-to sitter for the last 2 years, and have care for young and old, big and small. Before that I cared for my own dogs for 15 years before! I'm currently taking classes part-time, so I have plenty of time to walk, play with, feed, and generally keep your pet company throughout the day! I can fit well into your pet's normal home schedule, feeding, playing, and walking or letting them out as much as needed to best meet their needs.


“Marsha was great! She walked and loved on Winston while we were gone. We also received a package while we were out and brought in for us without being asked. Marsha is very caring and courteous, we'll definitely be using her again.”


About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing extra love and attention. I’m especially skilled at establishing routines, managing medications, and understanding different pet temperaments. I always approach every pet with patience and care. What sets me apart is my attentiveness and reliability. I treat every pet as if they were my own, keeping their well-being and happiness as my top priority. I also keep pet parents updated with regular photos and notes, so you feel confident and connected while you’re away. I have a Yorkshire Terrier named Rosie. She and I are best buddies. From the moment I brought her home, she has been my unofficial child. I completely understand how hard it is to trust someone else with your best friend so anything I can do to make you feel comfortable, I would. I feel at ease with cats as well! I wake up and immediately let my dog Rosie out of her kennel to do her morning zoomies and good mornings throughout the house. While she’s checking for intruders (and crumbs), I give my cat Lolli some pets. Following this, I check my chameleon Wilbur’s enclosure to make sure his temperature and humidity levels are just right. Rosie and I go outside for our morning walk around the neighborhood, where she says hello to every object in our vicinity. I feed all of my pets and make sure they have plenty of water. I take Rosie to potty every hour or so, ensure lolli’s litter is clean, and check Wilber throughout the day. Rosie and I finish up the day with an evening walk before bedtime. I have a friendly doggy to keep your baby company. Rosie and I go outside numerous times a day and I’ll take yours out as often as needed.

“Shannon has been awesome with our two pups!! She is very reliable and goes above and beyond during her visits. We look forward to our pups’ walks with Shannon and I’m sure they do to!! We highly recommend her services!”

“I just used Kristina to watch my little chihuahua while I went out of town for a week. My little guy does not like people and will not let anyone pick him up. I was nervous leaving him because I was afraid he'd be scared the whole time. Kristina sent me pictures daily of how he was doing and I was shocked to see that he had taken to everyone in the family and he was allowing them to pick him up. That is a huge deal. I felt way more confident a couple of days in after I saw that he was not just okay but he looked comfortable and happy. I was very happy with her!”
