“I’ve used Terra a few times now and - incredibly responisve and would recommend to anyone needing drop-ins. She dropped in to give my cat food and some love.”


“First time using Rover, and Jessica was awesome at caring for my special needs kitty. Definitely put my mind at ease when I got the pictures and status updates. Would definitely use Jessica again!”


“Appreciated THE TIME SPENT WITH Moose and the attention given to him. With Moose only 10 months old, Jeremy seemed to have no problem with his visits, walks and play time. Would definitely request Jeremy again.”


“We cannot recommend Stevie enough! Especially if you have cats! Your pets are in great hands with Stevie. She went above and beyond with our kitties and with our space. From hanging out with our cats, cleaning out their dishes and sending lots of great pictures- you will have great peace of mind when out of your home knowing Stevie is taking care of your pets! Thank you Stevie! Recommend x100!”


“Ayaka is such a great pet sitter! There's always lots of photos and updates of my pups day. I have already scheduled her for our next vacation!”



“Nicole helped out very quickly and get to my pup who needed a bathroom break.”


“Kim has been simply wonderful! She is a kind and gentle soul who has shown nothing but love and care with our two cats! We really appreciated her detailed updates with pictures that set our minds at ease while we were away on vacation. Kim even remembered our cats weird preferences and accommodated them (one of them prefers to drink water from a certain bathroom sink and she made sure he got his sink time in).”


“Deana watched my three cats during vacation and took great care of them! It was a relief to know that they were in good hands 😊 I loved all the pictures and updates I got!”


“Natalee took care of my cats over 8 days. She was conscientious about getting to them after her flight home was delayed and during a storm. It would have been good to learn about the delay without asking, but with airline issues, I don't think she knew sooner. Thanks for all your help, Natalee!”


“Camile did an excellent job! She went above and beyond for our pups and communicated with us very well. We will definitely ask her to help us out on future vacations.”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 15. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets. I have an English Mastiff, so I’m confident handling large breeds, but I also love working with tiny pups and seniors. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and treat every dog like my own. I am currently not working a job so I am available full-time to care for your furry friends! I would more than happy to take your puppy on a stroll around the neighborhood or stay with them overnight if needed! In clients’ homes, I follow all instructions closely to keep your pet safe and comfortable. I maintain their routine, keep their space clean, and make sure they get plenty of love, play, and attention. I’m respectful of your home and always leave things as I found them. Whether it’s sticking to feeding schedules, going on long walks or staying overnight, I’ve got it covered.

About: My name is Lisa and I love dogs! We have a female King Charles Cavalier named Lady and a female Black lab named Laramie. I have grown up with dogs and absolutely love taking care of them. They bring so much joy! We live in a great neighborhood, and also close to a great trail that will be GREAT for walking and getting lots of exercise. We also have a great big back yard that your pups can run, roam and play! We can’t wait to meet you and your furry friends! I am a stay at home mom, and will be working part time during the school year. Dogs will have access to the house or the back yard. We have a fenced yard for the dogs to run and play. We have a loving home for them to sleep. They will feel right at home!

“We were lucky to find a caretaker like Terry for our senior while we were away. She clearly has a love for animals and our cats got along with her. She gave oral med to one of our cats daily. Her daily pictures were great to see as we knew they were being well taken care of. She even offered to help out if we got delayed coming home or if we needed any additional visits which gave us an added peace of mind while we were away. Terry is easy to get along with and is very reliable.”


“This was my second time I've had Carmen care for my animals. I would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone that needs care for their pets. She and her family truly are amazing and really love wht they're doing. Thank you SO much.”


About: I currently own a very sweet, rescue lab mix and recently adopted a mischievous German Shepherd mix puppy. I trained both through reactivity issues, loose leash walking, as well as basic potty and crate training. I currently work in the evenings and am available for walks and drop ins through the morning and mid-day during the week. I'm fully available on the weekends save for spontaneous outdoor adventures with my own pups! I ensure your pets trust by gentle introductions and let them set their own boundaries if needed. I also have two dogs of my own for added socialization on walks.

About: I have had dogs my whole life, ranging from miniature dachshund to German shepherd. I was involved with 4H when I was a child. I am comfortable walking dogs and administering medications. I currently work full time in healthcare but desire to provide pet care services in my free time. I am an animal lover and enjoy spending time with all types of animals. I will care for your pets in your home to keep them as comfortable as possible. I will follow their routine to keep them as happy and stress free as possible.

About: Ever since I could remember I have loved animals, I grew up spending most of My time at My grandfather’s farm. I would help My grandfather feed the animals. I gave the dogs and horses baths and groomed them. When I moved away from the farm and had no pets I still dog sat My neighbors dogs and Bunny. When I got My 2 dogs I had been the one to feed them before and after school , pick up after them, and bathe them. I now have a cat and have had her for over a year now since she was 6 weeks old. I have trained her a bit and I groom her weekly. I would say I would be a great pet care giver. I currently work Part-time as a manager but have alot of time on My hands to care for pets. If time goes on and I am seeing good results in this work I plan on making pet care My main focus. Right now I unfortunately can’t take care for other pets at My home because I am living with Family and in total the house has 4 pets. But I can care for clients pets at their house, that way their fur babies feel more comfortable too.

About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, pigs, birds, reptiles, and fish of all breeds and ages. I am a lover of all animals, especially yours! I am available daily for walks as well as in house care. Monday through Friday works best but can be available on weekends on occasion. I am respectful of all clients homes and only do tasks which are asked of me. I leave homes better than when I have arrived.

About: i’ve grown up with dogs all my life. My family loves to get a new dog every few years and so i’ve had lots of experience with puppies. I also have been the one to train most to all of my dogs. before going to work everyday i make sure to feed and fill my dogs water bowls. i also make sure that there leashes and harnesses are by the door. I would treat your pet as i do my own. I care so much for my dogs because they are part of your family. I would make sure that they were treated in the manner they are comfortable. I am a full time college student but i am back full time at home during summer.
