About: As a psychiatric nurse, I offer gentle, attentive care to people in vulnerable moments. I bring the same calm, respectful presence to the pets I care for. Their feelings and situations are accounted for while I tend to their personal needs. I work part-time on an as needed basis and can work around the schedules of my clients. Available on short notice, including nights, and 12-24 hours' notice is preferred. I have a lightly fenced yard and two friendly dogs. A canine guest may be offered crating for sleep, or they are welcome to bring their own bed. Must be cat friendly. If caring for a pet in a client's home, care will be provided in their own environment precisely as they are used to.
“Hayley is AMAZING!! One of my cats is very social and the other is shy. She got BOTH of them playing, brushed them, and made sure they knew they were loved on top of the bare minimum of feeding them and giving my old lady her meds. She even checked to make sure my hamster was still breathing while I was away since it was always during my hamster’s sleep time that she was there. Highly recommend. Will be using again if I ever am going away and she is available”
“Collin was great with our dog, Remy! He was very nice, professional, and followed all our directions. Remy is 85 pounds of pure muscle and can be a bit rough, especially with pulling on walks, but Collin handled her like a pro from day one. Super responsive and clearly experienced—highly recommend!”
“Carter was very attentive to the needs of my anxious pup. He was on time and reliable and contacted me with questions. I highly recommend Carter as a pet sitter.”
“Tatyana was great - she was on time, asked good questions about the dogs and our instructions, sent us pictures and videos, and stayed in touch throughout our time away.”
“Our second time having Stacie watch our pups, and she’s simply amazing. Always goes above and beyond and leaves our home spotless and the dogs well loved and well cared for.”
About: Owner of seven dogs since 1998. Currently have two dogs. I have walked and cared for numerous friends' pets as well as my own for over 25 years. Semi-retired, part-time work schedule allows for flexible options for pet care any day of the week. Open weekend schedule also allows for extended pet-care options. As a pet owner for 28 years, am acutely aware of paramount safety procedures both inside and outside the home. I understand the importance of maintaining safety of a pet with leash and/or harness, and awareness of nearby animals or humans who may be problematic.
“Fawn was just wonderful! She was very responsible and on top of things. Our elderly cat has several medications and she kept a written record of doses and was diligent about giving them. She is a great communicator and gave us regular photos and updates and responded to texts quickly, and she was confident about asking questions if she needed more info. She spent quality time with our cat, let us know right away about any hiccups, and did a great job of looking after the house, the plants and the mail. We came home to a spotless house and most importantly a very happy and relaxed kitty! She is a friendly and cheerful person, very easy to work with. We recommend her unreservedly and hope to have her sit for us again. Thanks so much, Fawn!”
“Kiersten is very easy to communicate with and took great care of my dog, Luna. She sent me lots of pictures of their time together and was very flexible when our plans changed. I would definitely hire her again.”
“Magdalena stayed for six days to care for and cuddle my dog Nellie and cat Olive. She communicated and provided updates and photos daily. It was reassuring to know she was there to keep my pets safe, fed and loved while we were away. I highly recommend Magdalena for all your pet care needs. I will be booking her again in the future!”
“Amanda was AMAZING for our house sitting booking. She took such good care of our pitbull and cat. She really connects with animals and they absolutely love her. Our cat, who normally hates strangers and always hides, was curled up on her lap by the first night. We will definitely be booking her again!”
“We really appreciated Emily staying with our fur babies and we will be trusting her with all our future visits! She did a great job of keeping us updated and making sure their needs were met.”

“Caroline did an awesome job while we went away on vacation. I felt very comfortable leaving our two dog and our home with her while we were away. We also got delayed coming home by 2 days because of hurricane Irma, and she gladly stayed the two extra days to help out our family! I would highly recommend her to anyone needing a dog sitter overnight. Everything was in great condition upon return and we greatly appreciate her level of care and service while we were away.”
