“Taryn is wonderful. We will definitely hire her again. She’s very pleasant and great with our pets. They warmed to her immediately. She’s a problem solver (we had a minor plumbing issue which she solved on her own but contacted us). She stays in touch just enough so we know all is well but not so much that we can’t enjoy our time away. She went above and beyond. Excellent pet and house sitter!”


“So grateful to have found Erin! She was so wonderful with my two dogs over the holidays! She sent me several updates throughout the day & left my home spotless. She has such a warm spirit & loved on my boys so well while I was traveling. I can’t recommend her enough!”


“Ell was great! She kept me updated with photos, & I could tell my dogs were very well taken care of. She also took good care of my home & left it clean & organized! She also did me the favor of watering my outdoor plants. I will definitely be hiring Ell again!”

But I am comfortable to care for any other reptile as well ) -dogs (both elderly and puppies) -cats ( kittens inculded and also ones with behavioral issues) I’m always open to take care of any kind of pet with with ever need like giving medicine or changing diapers. I would love to be able to take care of your fur baby wants and needs so you can be able to accomplish whatever life’s busy schedule brings you! I currently work part time five days outta the week but have free time ID love to use to take care of your fur baby! So you can take care of yourself and your schedule:) I have many toys and space in my area for pets to be able to walk and play with no worry of anything being in the way. I also bring treats and small pet snacks for a rewards for after walks and such!

About: We’re a pet-loving home with 3 cats and 2 sweet senior dogs—all friendly, spayed/neutered, and great with guests! Your pet will feel right at home with plenty of love, snuggles, and playtime. I am available everyday, if I am boarding in my home I am available to come and go a lot. If boarding in your home I am available to stop by multiple times during the day/night. I have a fenced yard & two senior dogs who enjoy company. They’re still young at heart! 3 cats who are very social and enjoy new faces.

“So thankful to have found Ellie to house sit with our cat! It was the happiest she's even been while we're away. Ellie is so responsive and thoughtful -- it was like having a friend over to care for our Lily :)”


“Torie took great care of my doggies and my home! She is always so sweet and attentive with my pups, and she did a great job of checking in and giving me updates while I was out of town.”


“Kadyn did a wonderful job watching our two kitties and left our apartment better than she found it. She was an excellent communicator and followed all our instructions exactly. Most importantly, our cats both seemed happy and healthy all in the pictures she sent!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all kinds professionally for two years, but I grew up in a home that was always filled with pets! I’m a college student during the week and looking to give loving, genuine animal care on the weekends! I’m free Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays unless stated otherwise! My schedule will open up more once school is out for the summer! I have a big fenced in yard with a house full of pets! Any pets looking to stay with me will need to be ANIMAL FRIENDLY! I have a home with dogs, cats, small animals and reptiles. The dogs and cats are the only free roaming pets so as long as your pet is dog and cat friendly then that’s ok! I also have crates if your pet would need to be kenneled for any reason!

“Took great care of pongo and Bork chop, and sent lots of daily updates with photos making my first time leaving both of them while out of town much more relaxing, knowing they were in great hands!”


“Victoria (Tori) was so good to our dogs when we were gone. She cuddled with them and sent us updates and photos. We will for sure book with her again. Thank you so much Tori!”


About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember! Growing up, I cared for small pets like hamsters and guinea pigs, and later, I helped care for our family dog who lived to be over 15 years old. Toward the end of her life, she was blind and deaf, and I was there for her every step of the way, making sure she was as comfortable and loved as possible. I’ve always been around extended family pets, so animals have been a big part of my life. Recently, I had the joy of pet sitting a puppy for three weeks while the owner was out of the country. It was such a rewarding experience! I’d love the opportunity to care for senior dogs, as I know how important it is for them to have gentle, loving care in a peaceful environment. I live in a quiet neighborhood with a cozy home, perfect for dogs who need a calm, comfortable place to stay. As a homeschool mom who works from home, I have the flexibility and availability to provide consistent, dedicated care for pets. My schedule allows me to be home throughout the day, ensuring that your pet receives plenty of attention, walks, and playtime. Whether it’s daily care or longer stays, I’m able to give pets the love and care they deserve without any interruptions to my routine. I care for pets in my home just like they were my own, ensuring a safe, comfortable, and loving environment. My home is in a quiet neighborhood, perfect for peaceful walks and playtime. I make sure pets feel at ease with plenty of cozy spaces to rest and relax. Safety is my top priority—I keep a close eye on them at all times and make sure they’re secure indoors and outdoors. I also take the time to understand each pet’s individual needs, whether it’s special feeding schedules, medications, or extra attention, so they feel right at home. Your pet’s happiness and well-being are always my focus, and I’m committed to providing them with a safe, trusting environment during their stay.

“Excellent communication. Great job taking care of our special need dogs while we were away. This was our first time leaving the dogs at home so we wanted to make sure they were left in good hands. So glad we went with Delaney. We will definitely go with her again. Highly recommended.”


“Adrianna was AMAZING! It was my first time leaving my dog and she was so great to send constant updates and pictures. She knew just how to approach my dog who is nervous around new people at first and by the end of the stay, my dog was loving Adrianna! Adrianna was willing to be super flexible with my unreliable flight schedule and work to accommodate any last minute changes that could arise! Highly recommend Adrianna! Thanks for the wonderful service!”


“Zachary is great with our dogs! They love spending time with him, and we get pictures and updates on how they're doing. I don't feel like I need to be concerned at all if he's taking care of them.”


“We absolutely LOVED Lucas! Even Bobby Cat loved him and and Bobby doesn’t like anybody! This was the first time we have ever left our boys with a stranger. We did a meet and greet with Lucas several days before we left and our beasties all went crazy over him. I trust their instincts over anything. Lucas sent us pictures and messages daily. I felt comfortable and confident that the boys were in good hands, and able to relax and enjoy myself. The entire experience was great! Lucas will be our “go-to guy” for future travel!”


“Joseph was wonderful with my dog Buster! Would definitely use him again!”



“Pamela did a great job taking care of our house and critters. Will definitely be using her again! Highly recommended!!”


About: I have experience in clinic and shelter environments, especially with fearful or reactive pets. I also have experience with exotic animals and have taken care of personal pets my entire life! I’m reliable for feeding, walking, medicating, providing enrichment, and more. I’m currently available mornings, evenings, and overnight. With notice, I can invite animal-friendly small/medium pets into my home. For larger pets or those who don’t enjoy animal company, I can do drop-ins or walks at your home! I have my own friendly dogs and cats in my home. The small animals in my home are kept in a separate room. I have a long leash to give your pup some playtime outside, or we can take good walks on a regular leash. I can crate, medicate, or provide enrichment for your pets as needed (with instructions), always with compassionate care.

“Angie was amazing and meeting her put me completely at ease! I knew our zoo was in good hands and would end up spoiled, which they were. She even left us a report card which was appreciated. Angie will be our go to sitter without a doubt!”
