“Murphy was absolutely great. All my dogs took to him right away, even the cat came down for a pet. He was very attentive and even found a new toy that our German shepherd loves. We came back to 3 very happy and well exercised dogs. Would absolutely hire him again!”

About: I have been around animals my entire life but decided to go into veterinary medicine. I have about seven years of vet tech experience some in day practice but mostly in the ER setting so I'm well trained for emergencies and how to spot certain illnesses. I also have about five years of boarding and pet sitting experience. I adore all animals. I try to love everyone's fur baby as if they're my own. Give them all the love and care they need until they can be reunited with you. I'm also trained in physical therapy, senior care, and grooming. My heart and home are always open and willing to help out with all our fur babies. They give us the best form of unconditional love you can ask for. Animals are my life that's all I do all day long so I have more than enough time to care for your fur baby when you need me My yard is completely fenced in to provide safety I also have two friendly for babies to keep your baby company while they're here so they feel so lonely I work as a relief vet tech so I'm usually at home most of the day and available to care for your baby as needed I try to make all fur babies stay as comfortable as possible and to make them feel as close to being at home as possible
“Sherry is amazing! She took such good care of our pup, River! She sent pictures and updates the whole time we were gone! We've already asked for her again! I would definitely recommend her to anyone who needs a loving sitter for your fur babies.”

About: I've taken care of animals of all ages since I was a child. So your senior pets are safe with me. Your pets needs medication? Not a problem. I know how to preform CPR if an emergency were to happen. I set my own work schedule. Which in turn let's me have plenty of time to care for your pets in the way they need. I have a big yard which let's your pets have plenty of room to explore. I have one pup of my own so your animals will feel comfortable in my home. I have a room dedicated for pet sitting if they get overwhelmed and need their own space.
“Kristaina was great!! She was available on short notice, during thanksgiving! She was responsive and gave updates throughout the day. She also sent pictures throughout the day. I will definitely be using Krsitana again in the future”
“We have had Hershey for several years now and haven’t quite figured out how to travel that didn’t stress Hershey (and us) out the whole time. Uncle Devin to the rescue!! Devin and Hershey hit it off great. Hershey got to enjoy an stress-free week at home with his new friend, Devin, and we got to relax knowing everything was taken care of at home - and the price was very reasonable. I haven’t been that at ease on a trip in years! Highly recommend Devin!”

“Book Robb! He is so professional and takes GREAT care of your pets and house. He communicated well and sent pictures. He left our house cleaner than we left it. Lol. We would definitely rebook with Robb no question.”

About: With over 10+ years of experience in dog sitting and walking, I've had the privilege of working with dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I love getting to know my clients and do my best to meet their expectations and requests. From helping puppies learn basic commands to providing gentle guidance for dogs, I’ve honed a skill set that focuses on positive reinforcement and building trust. Dog walking is something I truly enjoy—each walk is an opportunity to connect with dogs and give them the exercise and mental stimulation they need. What brings me the most joy, though, is giving back to my community. Helping dogs in need while fostering positive relationships with pet owners is incredibly rewarding. Being able to support families and their pets while making a positive impact on my neighborhood truly makes my work fulfilling. It’s not just about walking or training; it’s about creating a space where both dogs and their owners feel cared for and understood. I am currently working part time so, I am available to do an exceptional job walking pets. I plan on focusing on my clients needs. I have two dog houses that my family and I built, cages used when necessary and tons of play space in the yard for my dogs. I am happy to provide my dogs with the utmost best care and upkeep!
About: I have been caring for dogs and cats for the majority of my life, starting with my family's pets and continuing with my own senior dog, Minnie, whom I've cared for for 13 years. This lifelong experience has given me a deep understanding of a pet's needs throughout all life stages. What truly sets me apart is my specific experience with senior care, including the comfort and skill to administer medication like eye drops and pills. I am also confident and capable of handling large, energetic breeds, as I regularly care for my sister's two 70-pound Huskies. I believe in a calm and patient approach to every pet I meet, earning their trust and making them feel comfortable and safe with me. Since I work part-time, my schedule is very flexible and allows me to easily fit pet care into my daily and weekly routine. I can accommodate a range of times for dog walks and drop-in visits, and my flexibility also makes me available for last-minute requests. Pet care is a priority for me, and my schedule is built to ensure I can provide consistent and timely care for every client. When caring for pets, whether it's for a drop-in visit or a dog walk, my first priority is to follow the owner's specific instructions and routine exactly as they are laid out. Before starting, I will ask about your pet's routine, personality, and how they respond to different environments to ensure a stress-free and positive experience. For drop-in visits, I will ensure your pet has fresh food and water, gets a potty break, and has some quality one-on-one time, whether it's through play, cuddles, or just companionship. For dog walks, I focus on providing a safe and enjoyable experience, matching the pace to your dog's needs and energy level while being attentive to our surroundings. I believe clear communication with the owner is key, and I will be sure to provide updates and photos to let you know how your pet is doing.

“Ashley was such a help when we had to change our Labor Day plans at the last minute! Our pups loved snuggling with her and she even managed medications and walking the two of them.”

“This was my first time having Jessica watch my girl Boo, and she did a wonderful job! It was a huge green flag when she showed up to the meet and greet with a notepad ready to take notes! I felt like she took really good care of my baby and of my house. She's going to be the first one I contact next time I go out of town.”

“Jasmine has taken care of our animals several times and has done a great job each time. I like having consistency when it comes to our animals caregiver and Jasmine is who we use exclusively.”

“Brittany was absolutely amazing and took great care of our dog Ranger while we were out of town. The house was immaculate when we returned including the sheets washed which was so appreciated! Ranger got lots of love and we got updates from Brittany throughout. We will absolutely work with Brittany again!”

“Kristen did a great job caring for our 3 babies and our home! She spent a lot of time at the house with them and they were well cared for. We'd definitely use her again!”

“Tiffany is my go to for Bruno every time I have to go anywhere. She is a life saver. She takes care of Bruno’s special needs and is very accommodating. Would recommend her 10/10.”

About: As an anxious pet owner, I understand how important it is to have a trustworthy caretaker for your fur babies. I will do my best to ensure your pets feel comfortable and right at home. I work from home full time so will always be available during the day. I sometimes leave in the evenings for the gym or workout classes, but if your dog is not crate trained please let me know so I can adjust my schedule and be at home full time if needed. I have an 8 year old dachshund mix named Peanut. We have a large fenced in yard that is perfect for playing fetch. Peanut is small so normally gets enough exercise from this, but we occasionally take walks around the neighborhood as well so let me know your pets current activity schedule.
“Crystal is beyond excellent and an expert in providing care for precious pets! She is absolutely gifted! My dogs are as different in personality as can be-- a calm, laid back German Shepherd and a fiesty, energetic Chihauha and both want special attention! Crystal was able devote exactly the right time and touch to each of them and even educated me on how to handle their individual needs, what to watch for with each and how to engage them individually! I can't describe how grateful I am of Crystal, how much I trust her with my dogs and how much she's done to put me at ease!”

About: I have over 20 years of experience caring for a variety of animals, including dogs, cats, small mammals, turtles, fresh water fish and salt water fish, including extensive knowledge of saltwater reef tanks. My approach emphasizes creating a comfortable and safe environment for pets, ensuring they feel loved and secure while their owners are away. I’m attentive to individual needs, whether it's regular exercise, playtime, or administering medications. My reliable and responsible nature, combined with a genuine love for animals, ensures that your pets will receive the best care possible. I’m committed to providing peace of mind for pet owners by sending photos of our visits throughout the day while providing a fun, stress free experience for pets. I am able to set my own hours in my current job so I can be flexible as needed. I can be available as early as 9AM and as late as 10 PM or even stay the night if needed. I will love your pets like they’re my own no matter what type of pets they are. My wife and I have 2 dogs, a cat, a turtle and a reef tank with salt water dish.

Kate is an AMAZING sitter! Our furbaby absolutely adored her. When she came to meet him the first time, she just melted and tried to go home with her lol! She's super sweet and kind (furbabies can tell) and never once felt any concern or worry about the care our Kobe would receive while we were gone. She sent pics every day of our trip to let us know how he was. She was great! Highly recommend!
