“Sarah is the best! This was the longest we’ve been away from our dog, and we came home to a happy, comfortable dog and a clean house to boot! Our vacations are always so much more enjoyable because we know Sarah is doing a killer job taking care of our pup :) thank you Sarah!”

“We loved having Pat watch our 2 fur boys. She sent pics and texts and we felt so comfortable knowing that Dill and Rocky were in great hands!!”

“Cary was an excellent dog sitter! She cared for my dog for 7 days while I was out of the country, and this was my first time being away from my dog. She was very thoughtful about sending regular updates throughout the day, which gave me so much peace of mind. Cary stayed at my home and took great care of both my dog and my space. She kept everything clean and even washed my sheets before I returned, which I truly appreciated after a long day of traveling. It’s clear she genuinely cares and treats your pet like her own. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”

About: From working/volunteering at shelters to pet sitting for friends and family, I have 10+ years of experience caring for furry friends of all ages, personalities, and sizes! Most all of my pet care has been limited to cats and dogs, but I am willing to work with small critters, birds and reptiles with the right care instructions/tutorials. I am not typically squeamish, so I am open to handling clean up and medication - please message me for specifics. As a dog mom myself, I understand that each pet requires different levels of care and attention, and am willing to meet them where they’re at! However, I do not offer training services and might not be the most compatible caretaker for pets that exhibit aggressive behaviors (I am open to discussing). Additionally, I am a full time graduate student, so care in the early morning and evenings will work best for my week day schedule. I will be available some holidays (i.e., Thanksgiving). My availability may also change from time to time, so please be sure to check my profile or message me. Choosing me means your pet will receive quality care, and that all the updates you receive will include cute pics! As a full time student, my weekday availability might mean limited check-ins, but your pet is always the priority! - Monday & Tuesday: 6:00 AM - 7:30 AM; after 5 PM - Wednesday: 6:00 AM - 7:30 AM; after 7 PM - Thursday: 6:00 AM - 7:30 AM; after 5 PM - Friday: 6:00 AM - 8:00 AM; after 3:00 PM - Saturday & Sunday: Flexible! I will need a few hours in the morning and some afternoons to volunteer. For pet sitting, I can provide the following: - Feeding and hydration - Exercise and play - Maintenance and cleaning of pets environment (e.g., litter box, crate, etc.) - Medication administration - Light housekeeping (e.g., bringing mail in, watering plants, taking out trash, etc.) - Text/photo/video updates

“Ashley took absolutely excellent care of our cat while we were out of the country for a week! I knew from the moment she met our cat during our meet and greet that our little girl was going to be in great hands. Throughout the trip, Ashley reached out with check-ins and photos reflecting how well she was being taken care of. She also responded quickly to any messages and went above and beyond watching our place. We (and our cat) look forward to seeing her again in the future!”

“Melissa was a HUGE help, stepping in over the holidays for a long house-sitting service when a previous sitter had to cancel last-minute. She is personable and communicative, shared lots updates during the stay, and took good care of our house. Our dog and cat were in great hands, and it felt wonderful to come home to relaxed happy pets. Happy to recommend!”

About: I am a cat mom to two lovable cats that are my World, and have owned dogs in the past (my black lab passed away in March). I am currently in college to become a Vet Tech (I graduate in June), so I am very passionate about helping animals, providing excellent care, and of course having lots of fun with them! I have 8+ years of experience dog and cat sitting for various families as well as experience working at a Doggy Daycare for 4 years. Lastly, I am Veterinary CPR certified and can administer medications, including insulin injections. Being that I am a full time student, I will be unavailable mornings, Mon-Fri between 7am-noon. If I sit for your dog or cat, I will be at your home the rest of the time. If you have any questions don't hesitate to reach out and I look forward to meeting your fluffy friend! I am currently a full time Vet student, so I will be unavailable from 7am-noon on weekdays. I will be available to be with your pet outside of those hours at all times. I am CPR certified for dogs and cats, and can administer oral and SQ medications. . . .. . . . . . . .

“Maggie did a wonderful job with Morgan & Frankie. She arrived when asked and even stayed longer then planned due to a flight delay. I received pictures and the dogs seemed happy and at ease. She said they were well behaved-everything a dog Mom wants to hear. She will help us again in a few days and I have total confidence they are in good hands and they will be happy to see her. I highly recommend her.”

“Micheal’s was wonderful she got along great with Ka’lua. She gave Ka’lua her meds like a champ. I will call Micheal’s again”

About: I am a part time college student. I am going to school to get my ECE Degree. I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 10 by volunteering at humane societies and having my own dogs. I also worked at a doggy daycares throughout Florida and Wisconsin. I love all dogs like they are my children. I would love to own my own rescue center but as of now I want to gain more experience with taking care of different breeds and just express my love of animals to the world. I hope that you choose me to be a temporary parent for your dog and that he or she is in perfect hands and will feel at home. Thank you. Hopefully we speak soon. I work third shift for Target and dog sit during the day. I make sure they are taken out three-four times and feed twice a day. I care for them like they are children. Go on walks, feed, cuddle. Run like crazy and crash from exhaustion. I also love getting to know the dogs personality.

“Marilia is the best! Our cat and dog love her. She is always reliable, and always a pleasure to work with. She's our first option for all house and animal sitting.”

Julia M.

“This was our first time using a dog sitting service and we couldn’t have been more lucky to have Lily watch our dogs. She met with us multiple times to meet our pups and walk through our routine. During our trip she sent plenty of updates and pictures to keep us up to date. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our pups and will definitely book Lily in the future!”

Shiloh F.

“Wow! What can I say? Margaret exceeded every expectation I had for Uecker’s care today! As a new puppy mom who’s only had him for three weeks, leaving him with someone for the first time was a little nerve-wracking. But Margaret made me feel completely at ease. She didn’t just watch him—she played with him, loved on him, reinforced the commands we’ve been working on, and treated him like he was her own. The best part? Walking through the door and finding Uecker snuggled up right next to her. My heart absolutely melted. It was obvious he felt safe, loved, and completely comfortable. I truly couldn’t be happier with the care Margaret provided. Book her before I do, because with my busy schedule, I’ll definitely be calling her again! Thank you so much, Margaret. Uecker already adores you, and so do I!”

“Kelsey was great with our 2 year old, high energy Samoyed while we went on a two day bike trip! She proactively asked to do a home visit first, which we were grateful for and it helped relieve some stress for us before our trip. It was clear Kelsey read all the info we prepared to help her have a fun stay in our home, and she sent lots of photos and updates. We were fully able to enjoy our time away as a result. She had great judgement about walking our double coated dog in the heat and rain. Our home was as clean as we left it upon our return. We’ll definitely book with Kelsey again!”

Carla I.

“Steph was communicative and reliable. She clearly loves cats and understands their behavior and needs. We felt relaxed while away knowing she was watching over things!”
