“I genuinely could not have asked for a better person to watch over my kitty while on vacation. She keeps you updated, sends pictures, whatever you may need to keep you at peace while being away from your pet. Highly highly recommend! I will not use anyone else as long as Erin’s available from here on out!”
“Here’s a warm, Rio was absolutely wonderful! She took the time to come over and meet me and my cat before the booking. During each visit, she provided detailed notes that showed how well she cared for my kitty. It was clear she took her time and genuinely cared. I felt completely at ease knowing my cat was in great hands. I highly recommend Rio and will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Anabeth was a very good cat sitter for my Molly, sending pictures daily of her playing and very sure to tell me when she had a concern for her! I would recommend her and definitely will be using her in the future when I need to go out of town!”
“Our shy kitties loved their visits from Gaby, she made sure they were well loved, fed and taken care of while we were away, which we are so appreciative of! They were in great hands!”
About: With over 30 years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages and breeds, I bring a lifetime of dedication, reliability, and deep animal understanding to every visit. What sets me apart is not just my longevity in the field, but the personalized attention and calm, confident care I provide. From energetic puppies needing structure and training, to senior pets requiring patience, medication, and gentle handling—I’ve done it all. I specialize in reading animal behavior, easing anxiety in shy or rescue pets, and creating a safe, loving environment while you’re away. Your pet’s routine, health, and happiness are always my top priority. Whether it’s daily walks, overnight stays, special needs care, or just keeping your pets company, you can count on me to treat them like family—because to me, they are. Pet care is a natural and fulfilling part of my daily and weekly routine. I structure my schedule around feeding times, medication needs, play sessions, and quiet companionship, ensuring each pet receives the attention and consistency they thrive on. Whether it’s early morning visits, midday check-ins, or evening routines, I prioritize each pet’s comfort and well-being as if they were my own. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do—it’s woven into my lifestyle, bringing joy, purpose, and a calming rhythm to each day. I have a large fenced in backyard that has ample room to run and play. I also have a Great Dane who loves all animals. In my clients’ homes, I provide personalized, stress-free care that keeps pets comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow each pet’s routine closely—whether that includes feeding, walks, playtime, medications, or cuddle sessions—ensuring they feel secure and cared for in your absence. I keep things tidy, stick to household rules, and maintain open communication with daily updates and photos. My goal is to create a calm, consistent presence that pets trust and look forward to, so you can travel or work worry-free knowing they’re in capable, loving hands.
“Riley is the sweetest! Great at communicating and very thorough and sweet. Provided great updates for our sweet cat throughout the weekend. Will definitely reach out again for cat sitting!”
“Tristan has house/dog sat for us many times. She is amazing. She always shows up on time and does all the mouse care and pet care. Feeding , walking and medications. She sends pictures all the time and is a great communicator. Our dog Takoda loves her too. The house is always left the way we left it. We love to have her in our home.”
About: As a lifelong animal lover and proud dog owner, I know just how much your furry friend means to you. With years of experience caring for my own pup, I understand the importance of exercise, attention, and love in keeping dogs happy and healthy. Whether it’s a long walk, a quick potty break, or some extra playtime, I’ll treat your dog like they’re my own—because to me, every wagging tail deserves the best care. I work from home, so I’m available 24/7, seven days a week to provide attentive and loving care for your furry friends. Whether it’s a midday walk, feeding, or just some company, I’m here whenever your pet needs me. If you choose me to pet sit in your home, I’ll treat your furry friend and your space with the utmost respect and care. I’ll follow your pet’s routine closely—feeding, walking, playtime, and any special needs—to keep them comfortable and happy while you’re away. I’m careful and responsible, making sure your home stays clean and secure, and I’ll handle your belongings as if they were my own. You can trust me to provide loving, reliable care that gives you peace of mind.
About: We have been pet owners all our lives until recently. We have experience looking after dogs and cats. We would love to fill the gap by helping you out with pet sitting needs. Your fur baby will be treated as part of our family! My husband and I work full time, some days from home. My work is just few minutes away so I am able do potty breaks and walk during lunch. Our schedules are flexible and we can adapt to your needs. We currently don't have any pets at the house. Our yard not fenced but the neighborhood is very dog friendly with a little nature trail for walks.
About: I’ve been pet sitting for over 5 years. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each animal’s unique personality and making sure they feel just as loved and comfortable as my own two dogs. I’m very patient, so if your pet is shy or a bit energetic on the leash, that’s no problem—we’ll take things at their pace! I currently work part-time remotely, which gives me plenty of flexibility to help care for your pet! I'm available Monday through Friday from 8 AM to 4 PM, and I’m happy to adjust those hours if you need care a little earlier or later. I have a strong attention to detail, so you can trust that I’ll carefully follow any instructions you leave to ensure your pet’s routine is kept just the way they like it.
About: I’ve been caring for cats and dogs for over 20 years, and each one has taught me something new about patience, love, and the joy of companionship. Whether it’s a playful pup or a shy cat, I meet animals where they’re at — with kindness, attentiveness, and respect. I don’t just “watch” pets, I treat them like my own friends: making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for every step of the way. As a stay-at-home parent with a supportive and loving partner, I have plenty of time to spend ensuring that your beloved animals receive the maximum amount of care and attention. With extremely flexible hours, and plenty of open days, I can ensure you that your fur babies will have my complete and total loving attention. I don’t offer care in my home since I have an elderly cat with special health needs and an unneutered dog. This ensures my focus stays fully on your pet in their own safe, familiar environment.
About: Growing up with a revolving door of furry friends (rescue pups and adopted kitties to be exact!), I understand the special bond we share with our animal companions. My home office offers a calm and loving environment where your dog can relax and receive personalized attention. I believe in tailoring each experience to their unique needs, whether it's a playful puppy, a senior who enjoys gentle strolls, or a special needs furball requiring extra TLC. I currently work from home most of the week. I'm available for boarding, dog walking and daycare during the week and weekends. I will try to accommodate any schedule. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs and a cat to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed. I'm experienced with handling dogs of all sized, breeds, and temperaments. Happy to accommodate special needs, dietary restrictions and medication schedules.
About: I have experience with small, medium, and large dogs! As long as I can remember I have always had a dog in my life- whether it be a family pet, a farm watchdog, or a herding dog for our cattle! I love all breeds and will do my very best to provide trustworthy care for your loving pet! I will treat and love your dog just as if it were my own! I have a toy Australian Shepherd named, Wren who is 8 years old and since I didn’t think 1 dog was enough, I got another Australian Shepherd who’s name is Piper and she is 6. Piper warms up to any dog and loves to make new friends! They both would give me 5 stars⭐️ Can’t wait to watch your pets! I currently work from home 2-3 days a week. When I’m on the road or in office for work, I typically get back home around 6:00 pm but have a very flexible schedule and can be home earlier. I have a fenced in yard and my dog Piper gets along with any dog! They will have a blast playing with each other! I will love and care for your pets just as they are my own.
