About: I have been dog and cat sitting for six years, and have had in home pets my whole life! I have experience with senior pets and am happy to help with any mobility needs. I am open to caring for puppies and kittens, but they must be potty trained. I work 8am-4pm and can take a lunch break to let pets out as needed! Happy to spend the night with a pet, or just pop for a bathroom break! I am not able to care for pets at my house at this time, however I am happy to spend the night somewhere else if need be (after being able to visit with the pet parents present). I am also happy to walk or play with pets to get them some exercise!

About: I bring a level of responsibility and trust that sets me apart. I’ve cared for pets of all kinds — from cuddly cats to quirky dogs — in homes across the U.S. I’m calm, attentive, and always treat pets like they’re my own. I'm also neat, reliable, and communicative, so you'll always know your pets and home are in good hands. What sets me apart? 👉 Life experience 👉 Flexibility to travel 👉 A deep love for animals (and the quiet joy of daily routines) Whether it’s meds, snuggles, or just holding down the fort — I’ve got it covered. I’m a retired real estate agent turned full-time traveler, so my schedule is wide open — no 9–5, no rush. Pet care is a natural fit for my lifestyle. I enjoy quiet mornings, long walks (with or without a leash in hand), and cozy evenings in. Because I work remotely and love slow travel, I’m able to give pets my full attention. I’m home a lot, I don’t party, and I’m happy sticking to your pet’s routine — whether that’s sunrise feedings, mid-day meds, or nightly snuggles. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I treat it with the same respect I would my own. I follow all instructions closely — from feeding schedules to security routines — and I’m extremely mindful about keeping doors locked, floors clean, and pets safe. I believe in calm, consistent environments, especially for animals. I keep noise to a minimum, never invite guests over, and I’m happy to update you with daily messages or photos so you always know your pets are well. Trust and safety are my top priorities — both for your animals and your home.

About: I offer pet photography! I am a photographer and would love to get your dog professional photos while I am pet sitting. I’ve had animals my entire childhood. We have never been without a dog in our home. I am experienced in dog walking, over night stays, check ins, and belly rubs! I am currently not working so I will have all the time to care for your dogs any day! Weekdays or weekends I will be there for your pup! I will follow any directions you give me based on your dogs needs. I am very rule oriented so anything you have to do for your pup will be done by me!

About: I've never owned a dog but I've always been around family dogs and have given basic dog care over the years. Including walking and dog sitting. I'm currently not working so I have plenty of time to attend to your pets needs. My schedule is very flexible and I'm sure we could find a fit. I currently only offer in client home sitting. I will follow guidelines set by the pet parents in regards to walks and feeding times, etc.

“Emily was awesome to work with. I have a very large, energetic German Shepherd. She was able to stay at our house with him while we were away. He does not do well at a kennel and this allowed him to stay in his own home. I immediately noticed he was calmer upon my return. Emily played with him throughout the day and kept me updated on how he was doing. Since we are in a pandemic, Emily also was kind enough to disinfect surfaces before we got home. I will absolutely work with Emily again.”


“This is our first experience with Vonda. Our longtime dog sitter unexpectedly moved out of town for a new job, and we needed to find a new sitter quickly. We contacted Vonda and she was available to meet with us the same day – and we booked her the next day. Vonda responded to any questions or requests we sent her way during our travels. We are very happy with the excellent care Vonda provided for our fur baby and for our home while we were away... We recommend Vonda and hope to use her services again should the need arise.”


“If you want a pet sitter who will treat your pets like their own, pick Mackenzie!! She is our go to pet sitter for our three dogs and two cats. She goes above and beyond every time and is so good with them all! I have dogs ranging from 7 pounds to 110 pounds and I would trust her with any of them any day! Thank you Mackenzie, my babies love you!”


About: Hi! My name is Alicia. I am a Licenced Veterinary Techician, and graduated from IMBC. I have two cats and two jumping spiders currently. I was a full-time LVT at NEAH, but left recently due to compassion fatigue. I have experience with exotics as I used to own rats, a fire skink, and have cared for bearded dragons in the past. I would like to get to know you before coming into your home and caring for your pets. I think establishing trust between each other is an important step to becoming a valued pet sitter. I’m very excited to meet you and your little companions! I am currently working part time doing odd jobs and would love to add this to my routine! I have so much love for animals! Cleanliness is a top priority of mine when it comes to feeding and potty time. Additionally, I know the basics of first aid and CPR in a situation where the worst would occur. I believe this is important knowledge for any sitter to have.

“Sanibel had an amazing time with Stephanie. She hung out with her 2 nights in a row during our wedding weekend. The 2nd night as soon as she saw her she was prancing her way excited to spend the night with her. Stephanie was super flexible and accommodating and we knew right away Sanibel wa in great hands. We hope she can spend some time with her again!”


“Pups had a great time. Very good communication”


“AWESOME!!!!! I wish there were more stars than just 5. Danielle was amazing. She took great care of my furbabies and my home. She did more than I expected and sent updates with photos. I was nervous having someone I did not know in my home with my pets for 3 nights, but Danielle took care of my pets and home as if they were her own. She even striped the bed she used, washed the bedding and remade the bed, she took out the garbage and washed and put away the dishes. Completely unexpected, but greatly appreciated. She made my long weekend away much more enjoyable because I knew everything was in good hands with Danielle. She is a God Sent and a True Blessing. In case you cannot tell, I highly recommend her!!!!”

“Cassie was great with my dogs! She made sure to walk with them and play with them, they're always tired and happy by the end of the day. My dog Tikka especially loved having Cassie over. Highly recommend!”


Veronica E.

“I highly recommend Veronica as a pet caregiver! She is incredibly responsible, attentive, and genuinely loving with animals. Whether it's daily walks or just giving extra snuggles, she treats every pet like her own. You can travel worry free knowing your furry family member is in caring capable hands.”


Madelyn N.
“Maddy has been one of the most passionate and caring pet sitters we have ever used. She understands that pets ARE family and treats them as such. We have two dogs, three cats, and used to have a bunny. She has followed every instruction left for her and is extremely conscientious, not only with our pets but with our home as well. We rely on her for house sitting, but also for drop-in and walks while we are working or traveling. She is a great communicator and sends pics and stories. She also brings to our immediate attention any issues. Both dogs require meds and she routinely administers the medications. I love, but hate to travel without our pets, and Maddy makes it so I can enjoy my time away and not have to worry so much about the family members I am leaving behind.”


Monica C.
“Monica and I bonded over a cat with special needs--a daily responsibility, which Monica embraced with gusto. Meantime, she was not just accommodating but encouraging her other cats' individual personalities. In other words, she gets two very important things. First, the key to good critter health and happiness lies in the everyday details, and she is dedicated to fulfilling them every single time. Second, enrichment is everything--and also most of the fun for all involved.”
