“Kaitlyn was amazing! She took Great care of my girls while I was away. I love that she updated me daily with pictures and stories about how the girls were doing. I love the details that she would give me about what girls were interested in playing games everyday and who would rather just chirp for attention. Definitely trust and recommend her to take care of your fur babies.”


“Besides a misunderstanding regarding litter box cleaning that wasn’t done, Alexis provided care for my two cats while I was gone. I got a photo each visit, which was a nice check in.”


“Norman dropped in to play with my dog, Archie, for the past two days. He met with me earlier in the week to meet Archie and to learn about Archie’s routine. He has been a great communicator and I can tell Archie has enjoyed his playtime with Norman. I definitely plan on asking Norman if he can drop in on Archie again.”



“Rachel is a very responsible pet sitter. My reservation with previous pet sitter got cancelled because of the bad weather one day before the service. Me and my family were already out of town and my cats were at home alone. Rachel was able to accept this late request and took care of cats well in the bad weather situation.”


About: Hi there! I work from home and would love the opportunity to care for your pup. We have had dogs all our lives. In fact, one of my favorite jobs was working at a dog grooming salon. My husband and I have an adorable dog of our own named Oprah. She loves playing with other dogs, laying in the sun, chasing squirrels and snuggling up with humans under a warm blanket. I work from home, but do head out of the house for up to 4 hours to run errands, walk other dogs, etc., so dogs that can’t be left alone for a few hours may not be the right fit for our household. We all look forward to making your pet feel right at home! I am available for boarding, and dog walking. We have a fully fenced yard and lots of cozy space to curl up and relax. We only board for 1 family at a time and prefer a meet & greet prior to booking to ensure the dogs get along well & to put your mind at ease while you are away from your pup!

About: I’ve cared for pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments—from playful puppies to sweet senior dogs who need a little extra TLC. My experience includes everything from basic training reinforcement to administering medications, managing separation anxiety, and understanding different energy levels and needs. What sets me apart is my attention to detail, patience, and genuine love for animals. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality and routine, so they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Whether your dog needs long walks, slow strolls, or just some good couch cuddles, I’ve got them covered. I work from home most days so am always available to check in and take care of your animals while you’re gone! I love taking time out of my day to get off of my desk job to take a nice walk with your dogs. I have a fenced in backyard with ample space for your dogs to play in! I plan on making sure they’re in a safe environment always by avoiding any dangers that might come on walks.

“Jessica always takes such great care of our two cats! I can tell they get A LOT of love and attention during each drop-in! We have peace of mind anytime we travel out-of-town, knowing our boys are in excellent hands 🐈🐈”


“Becca was attentive and thorough when she watched our 2 cats and 2 rabbits. We appreciated that she checked in with us often and our animals seemed to like her too. Even our skeptical cat quickly came around. We look forward to booking with her in the future.”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was little, and I love to be around them. My family has also had me take care of their dogs too, and I have one of my own. I’m a college student, so I’ll be at home with the pups and have time to give them attention and lots of love! I’m available on weekdays and on the weekends :) I have a very friendly neighborhood, and a very friendly dog of my own to keep your little one company! If needed I can crate your dog as well.

About: I'm a one-person pet sitting business committed to providing exceptional care for your beloved pets. I understand the special bond you share with them, and I treat each pet as if they were my own. Over the past 2 years, I have watched my friends and co-workers pets for them. Now I have my own business license and pet insurance to offer my services to anyone who are in need. My usual day starts with checking with clients pets in the morning and letting them out/feeding them, then during my lunch time I come back from work and let them out to go potty, in the evening I feed them then let them out one more time before I leave for the night. Sometimes my clients wants me to stay at their homes and I do for an extra charge. I have a dedicated area at my home for my client's pets. Then I always ask my clients for their veterinarian's contact information just in case for emergencies.


About: I make sure your dog is well cared for in their home and also take care of your home too. I’ve spent over 8 years living with dogs or dog sitting them. I’ve worked with a wide variety of breeds from small to larger. I’m currently changing careers so I have plenty of time to work around your schedule so that your pet is well taken care of. Weekdays or weekends are wide open for house sitting. Or just walks. I make sure to establish your typical routine for your pet in your home and follow that to a tee. Making sure the pet is comfortable and happy is my main priority.

“Laura took care of our cat Ocean (daily visits) while we were out of the country for a week. She was simply wonderful. Ocean tends to be anxious around new people, and is slow to let her guard down. With Laura, however, it is clear that Ocean felt increasingly comfortable over the week, to the point where she was even willing to play with Laura a bit (very rare for her to get to this point with a new person so quickly!) Laura also went above and beyond in communicating with us, updating us on the visit each day with photos and videos and written notes. She was reliable, knowledgeable and thoughtful. We recommend her to anyone!”


About: Hi there, my name is Sarah and I love taking care of small dogs and cats! **I require all new clients to book a 1-2 day trial stay before booking more than a 5+ boarding stay in our home. I do not accept last minute requests for new clients, but will accept last minute requests for my regular clients at this time.** I have prior experience with taking care of two toy breed yorkshire terriers growing up and have always been a dependable and reliable caregiver for friends and family that own small dogs and also cats. I had my own fur baby 5lb pomeranian pup that I raised her from being a puppy until she was four years old and she passed away in 2023 due to MUE. She was the love of my life. 🌈 😔 As an ex-puppy mom, I miss having to take care of my own and would love to spend time with your pet and treat them with lots of attention, cuddles and playtime. If my requirements seem strict, it’s because I genuinely adore small dogs and want to ensure they are comfortable, supported, and thriving during their stay with us. As a former dog owner, I know firsthand the anxiety of leaving your beloved pet with someone else, and I want to put your mind at ease by making sure we're the perfect match for your pup before committing to extended boarding. If you’re a dog parent who truly cares about your pet’s well-being and quality of stay, I hope this message resonates with you. I’m committed to building strong relationships with pet parents who value their dog's happiness and want a reliable sitter who follows instructions and maintains a consistent home routine to help ease any anxiety. During the week day I work a part time position outside of my home and only can do dog boarding on the weekends. Given my schedule, I’m unable to provide constant care for elderly or high-needs dogs at this time. However, I'm more than happy to shower your dog with love and attention by playing with their favorite toys and taking them on evening walks. Since I'm an illustrator, I often have virtual meetings and design work to handle during the day, so I can only accommodate dogs that are calm and low-maintenance. In the evenings, my husband and I wind down by watching a show and heading to bed by 10 p.m. as he leaves for work at 5 a.m. I require meet and greets where we can go over care instructions and ensure your pet is friendly and well-behaved and house trained. I do send out an intake form that I require to be filled out prior to our meet and greet. Here is a breakdown of my services I currently offer and what you can expect during your pet’s visit: Each visit I provide 4-12 photos and 1-2 videos. Boarding: Ideal for 1 animal under 10lb, my home offers a fully fenced yard in the back and a partially fenced yard in the front for potty breaks. I require all dogs to have been crate trained and require all dogs to have a crate of their own or a small space or bed when they stay at our house. We do not supply any pet beds or crates and do not have stairs to go on the couch nor in our home. My husband and I have no children or pets and live in a 1-story 800 sq ft rambler style home. We have lots of rugs since we have wood floors and a cozy fireplace to lay next to during the winter. In the afternoon and evenings, me and/or my husband are home to ensure your furbaby gets lots of cuddles, affection and playtime including playing with their favorite toy, fetch, and going on evening walks. Please ensure your pet is up-to-date on all of their vaccinations, treated for fleas/tick prevention before arriving. 30 minute Drop-in Visits: Ideal for 1-2 animals, in this time I will put out fresh food and water, potty breaks, and spend the rest of the time offering cuddles, affection and lots of playtime with your furbaby. 60 minute Drop-in Visits: Ideal for 1-2 animals, in this time I will put out fresh food and water, potty breaks, clean litter boxes, and ensuring lots of affection, cuddles and playtime. If you have any special requests I’m happy to accommodate 😊 If you have any questions at all, please don’t hesitate to ask!

“Sarah H. watched our Yorkie pups Ascii and Bandit for a week while we went out of town. She did a great job playing, feeding, caring and walking them at her home. She sent us pictures, and videos and reported to us every few days. She managed to keep them both looking pretty content despite their very unique personalities. One is a nervous dog and less trusting, but when we returned we found him content and pretty happy but still a nervous pup. The other is very relaxed and pretty happy, and he literally was curled in her lap when we arrived to pick them up. Sarah provided us a great card outlining daily notes with meal times, snacks and behaviors for each of them, along with a treat bag for each of with some of the treats she recommends. We really liked her when we met her originally and was so relieved to find her available. We will use her again! Thanks you so much Sarah! You did a great job!”

She’s incredibly attentive, kind, and always puts their well-being first. Her passion for animals is obvious, and I would trust her completely to care for any pet. If you’re looking for someone who truly loves animals and treats them like family, Judith is the perfect choice.”
