“Amanda did a great job taking care of my cat Lucie for 3 weeks! She didn’t miss a day and sent great pics. She is highly trustworthy, I would use her again, and I highly recommend her!”


“Izzy was so nice and took my booking at the last minute which I so appreciated! My mom met with her since I left before she could meet up, and also had nothing but good things to say. She came around the same time every day, took pictures of my cat for me (there is separation anxiety but it's not my cat), and gave her some pets as well as medication. My cat is usually very nervous and doesn't come out for just anyone, but she came out for Izzy. She also checked on my fish when we needed to determine if the water was low. Thank you, Izzy! I'll be booking again!”


“So happy to know Kara! She took such good care of my 2 kitties - they were perfectly happy when I returned. I definitely recommend her services and plan to use her services again for sure! Thank you Kara! Knowing you were looking out for my fur babies really put my mind at ease. Your visit reports and cute photos were reassuring and fun to see! Best to you!”


About: While I have the most experience taking care of cats, I do have experience with dogs, bearded dragons, and fish as well! I am also always open to learning about new animals and their care routines. I am consistent, detail oriented and passionate about caring for critters and that will always be the same no matter the animal! I am currently employed 7-3:30 5 days per week. I am able to attend to pets before and after work every day as well as on my days off. If something does not quite fit with my schedule I do have a partner who is a little more flexible and may be able to fill in. I live in a spacious townhouse, so if your pet is joining our crew we can provide them with their own space or allow them to roam with the others! If I am caring for your pet in your home, I will treat it as if its my own. I am a very cleanly person and I am detail oriented so I will attend to your surroundings as well as your pet!

About: I've always been the family member my family could call on to take care of their dogs when they were out. I've walked/been walked by an energetic husky, I've looked after a blind/deaf elderly shih tzu, I've spent hours playing with a cuddly golden retriever, and now I want to help take care of your pets. My schedule is fairly free for weekday/weekend care, earlier in the morning would work better for me but if you need me to come over at the evening/night time, I'd be more than happy to do so. My drop-ins involve a quick to-do list to take care of the basics (any food bowl, water, or potty attention), followed by playtime until I can ensure your pet is happy and satisfied. If you'd like me to have some photos of your pet whether I'm doing in home care or taking them for a walk, let me know and if there's an opening, I'll gladly snap a few photos for you on my phone!

“Emily is wonderful! Our cat was originally a stray so she is timid with others but based on the videos I think she is really warming up to Emily! Emily does a great job and we have used her services several times now. It feels so good knowing we can rely on her to check on our cat when we go out of town.”


About: I have been around animals my whole life, and I have done dog and cat sitting a few times over the years for neighbors or friends. I’ve had cats and dogs in my home since 2014, and I am very comfortable around both. I currently have a full time job; I work primarily in the mornings with evening shifts thrown in here and there. I don’t do much outside of that, so I am pretty available otherwise. I want to keep all pets feeling comfortable, following their routines/schedule, and keeping them company (within their boundaries). I no longer live with my cats and miss them greatly, so I will make sure they receive extra attention, pets, and playtime (within their boundaries).

About: I have always had a dog in my house since I have been a kid. A house is not a home without a dog. I will treat your dog as if he/she were part of my family. I am working part time and want to spend some time with your dog. I work every other weekend as a nurse, and have some free time during the week to check in on your dog while you are away. I can provide walks, medications as needed & play time for your dog. I can groom your dog (if they like it), too! Looking forward to meeting him/her.

“Fantastic. I forgot to book the last day and she kindly reminded me that it wasn't booked so that she could help us with care before we return home. Our fur babies loved her presence and she didn't waste any time to ensure they had some fun playtime together. Thank you!”


“Thank you so much Kelly! My husband and I had a worry free weekend away knowing our dogs were well taken care of with Kelly. She went above and beyond for our girls and seeing pictures and getting updates was amazing!”


About: I have owned animals in my house since I was 7 years old. I also animal sat for family and friends while they were on vacations. I currently do not have a job. I can take care of animals anytime and any day of the week. I also have a reliable vehicle to get to and from scheduled times. I currently live in an apartment so I can't take animals in my home, but I can and will provide the best care to another person's animals like they are my own at their home.

“Abby did an amazing job. If you need someone to administer medicine and treat your cat like her buddy, have Abby take care of your kitty. Our cat Shadow was very comfortable with her and enjoyed being spoiled!”


About: I have worked with many animals over my time of pet sitting. I have worked in a boarding and grooming job, retail specific to pets, as well as over night pet sitting, walking, and drop ins I do currently have a part time job but I can try to make anything work for both of our schedules to the best of my ability. I take care of others pets as if they where my own. Even if that means spoiling them a little bit. I have many references and am very confident in my pet sitting abilities.

About: I’ve always been an animal lover since I was little. Throughout college I have done all sorts of pet/house sitting for friends, family, coworkers etc. I have house sat for a family friend that required feeding and watering horses, milking goats, reptile care, rabbit cleaning care, medicating cats/dogs if needed, you name it. I currently have a Corn Snake as well as a Crested Gecko. I have been a Veterinary Receptionist for over 3 and a half years now and have a beautiful 11 month old daughter I plan to share my love of animals with. Currently working a max of 30 hours at my day job as a Veterinary Receptionist but recently have been working less. Typically I have Sundays and Tuesdays off during the week but sometimes get another random week day off depending on how busy we are at the clinic. My shifts are usually from 10-4pm or 12:30-6:30pm. Your home is their home. I will cater to your pet based on what they like or need. If they just need someone to keep them company I’m there. I will treat your space with respect and follow any instructions given. My pets are family and are treated as such so the same would go for your kiddos.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs, cats, reptiles, and fish from the ripe age of 10! I have had animals from the size of teacup yorkies to the size of Rottweilers so size doesn’t challenge me. I currently work full time Sunday-Wednesday and find myself with a lot of free time the rest of the week so I’d love to get to play and help with your best friend as much as I’m able to get I am able to follow all the rules you provide with your best friend and am able to accommodate with any requests to keep you stress free!

Ross G.
“Ross is GREAT with my fur baby! She always knows that she is going to be spoiled with love when he is around. Ross is great on walks (even though our good girl isn’t the most experienced on a leash), and does a good job of engaging with her/rewarding her throughout the walk. Ross clearly has experience with dog manners/basic dog training and isn’t nervous around bigger dogs! I would trust Ross with my pupper ANY day of the week — and know that she would be extremely well cared for!”

Darcy S.
“Darcy is one of my closest friends and coworker at our vet hospital. Darcy has had years of experience pet sitting for various friends, family, and coworkers. There is no animal she doesn’t love with her full heart, whether it be dogs, cats, or even snakes! She is someone you can trust to love and care for your pets as if they were her own. Don’t miss out on an opportunity to work with someone as amazing as her!”
