“Truly incredible people! They sent us daily updates with tons of great photos and videos of our cats, and it was clear how much they genuinely care for animals. The attention and affection they gave was above and beyond and our cats might’ve even been a little disappointed it was us walking through the door and not them! We’ll absolutely be booking with them again for future trips. Can’t recommend them highly enough!"”


About: My family and I are big pet people; we’ve have always had at least two dogs that I’ve trained, walked, and loved my whole life! I’ve always been the dog walker in my family for my grandparents and aunts when they are out of town so I have lots of experience caring for animals both in our home and theirs. I’m home from college and looking to pick up some extra work! Fully available weekdays and weekends, day or night to care for your pets! I have a fenced yard with a doggy door and two friendly dogs! We walk them every day and take them out to socialize often! I live right next to a large dog park where I often take our animals to run and play. I am very willing to drive your animals to these parks alongside sitting and walking.

About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. Friends and family have always trusted me to love and care for their fur babies like my own. Nurturing comes naturally to me it's truly second nature. From bottle feeding newborn puppies and kittens to gently supporting senior pets with special needs, I have experience with all stages of life. Whether it’s playtime, cuddle time, or medication time, I treat every pet with patience, love, and respect. Your pet's comfort and happiness is always my top priority. I also have a sweet 2 year old Maltipoo named Tuesday, who’s used to sharing her space and gets along well with other pets. As a stay-at-home, homeschooling mom, I’m home throughout the day—so your pet will get plenty of love, attention, and care. Animal care is part of our daily rhythm. My dog Tuesday and I go on multiple walks around our complex each day, and there’s always time for play, cuddles, and quiet rest. Whether your pet loves activity or prefers a calm, cozy environment, I’m able to meet their needs consistently all day long. Your pet won’t just be a guest they’ll be part of our little family. Even though I live in an apartment, your dog will still get plenty of outdoor time. I take multiple walks each day around my pet friendly complex, and we also have access to two fenced in dog parks for safe playtime and exercise. I follow a consistent routine with meals served at breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and fresh water is always available. In my home, pets are treated like family with lots of love, structure, and attention to their individual needs. When I care for pets in your home, I respect your routine and space. I make sure your pets feel secure and comfortable by sticking closely to their normal schedule, whether that’s feeding times, potty breaks, walks, medications, or cuddle time. I clean up after them, keep things tidy, and leave your home just as I found it if not better!

“My Fur baby LOVES Lien! We schedule weekly drop ins and she plays fetch and teaches my Fur baby new tricks. She is very kind, patient, and trustworthy. My Fur baby is very particular and doesn't take to alot of people and she is soooo happy and excit when Lien.”


About: I’ve been asked to watch my friends and families cats and dogs for the past two years. I feel more than comfortable feeding them their food as well as taking them out on potty breaks. I am available any day of the week in the mornings and afternoons. Once I begin my fall semester on August 18th, I will be available every Thursday and on weekends. Until then, I have open availability. My boyfriend and I have our own dog, Princess. She is a shih-tzu Maltese. She is the sweetest dog that I know, and we know that her favorite part of the day is when we take her out on her daily walk.

“It was our first time leaving our 10month old kitty, Mitchell all by himself, so we were really worried about that! Luckily we found and met Ella — She dropped by and took good care of Mitchell for a couple of days. She was really great with Mitchell considering the fact that he’s so cautious and shy. Ella did a good job following the instructions we wrote for Mitchell’s routine. Kept us updated too with everything. Very trustworthy & amazing with pets. Will definitely reach out again the next time we need a sitter for our fur baby.”

About: I've been taking care of dogs as long as I can remember. Growing up, I was a latch key kid, so from the time I got home from school to when my parents came home from work, my dogs and my siblings were under my supervision and care. Every time a friend or family relative goes on vacation, or just need someone to watch their pet for them for the day, I'm the first person they call. While under my care, I do my best to make sure your fur-baby feels just at home. I'll also help you feel at ease with regular updates and pictures of your pet while they're with me. I am currently a stay at home parent. I have a very open schedule to help you and your pet care needs. I'm available Monday through Saturday. I have a fenced yard. While your pet's under my care, Mi casa is su perro/gato's casa. My stairs are gated off, but besides that, the rest of the house is their domain. I have three dogs and three cats. My dogs are very friendly with other dogs, but I have no problem keeping them separated if you'd like. My cats stay upstairs or in my daughter's room for the most part.

“Mickie was very responsive and was great checking in on my cat while I was out of town. Definitely recommend!”

Your pet’s happiness and safety are my top priorities. I offer a fun and secure environment where they can feel relaxed and at home. I work from home and occasionally go into a pet-friendly office, so your pet will never be left alone and will always be safe and supervised. I’ll provide daily photo updates and communicate with you regularly so you can feel at ease while you’re away. We live in a house with a spacious, fenced yard—perfect for running around, playing fetch, or just relaxing in the sun. My two children absolutely love animals and are always excited to help with walks, playtime, and giving extra cuddles! You can count on me to provide the proper exercise, attention, and care that your pet deserves. Whether you need boarding, house sitting, dog walking, or drop-in visits, I’m here to make sure your pet gets the love and care they need. I'm also experienced with pets of all sizes and temperaments, and I’m happy to accommodate any special needs your pet may have. I ensure that your pet is always safe, happy, and comfortable, no matter where they are. Let’s schedule a meet & greet so I can learn more about your pet and their needs. I can’t wait to be a part of their next adventure while you’re away! I work from home most weekdays, which means your pet will have plenty of company and supervision. On days I go into the office, I bring pets with me—it’s a pet-friendly environment where they stay safely by my side. I’m fully available on weekends, making it perfect for overnight stays or last-minute bookings. Whether it’s weekdays or weekends, your fur baby will never be left alone or unattended. When caring for pets in my home, I prioritize a safe, clean, and loving environment. I live in a house with a fully fenced yard where pets can play freely and securely. Indoors, I create a calm space with plenty of cozy spots for rest, toys for enrichment, and constant supervision. Pets are never left alone for long periods, and when I go into my pet-friendly office, they come with me and stay right by my side. In my client’s home, I make sure to follow all instructions closely—feeding schedules, medications, routines, and preferences—to help pets feel comfortable and keep everything consistent. I take care to respect your home and leave it just as I found it. Communication is key, so I provide frequent updates and photos, and I'm always available to answer questions. Whether in my home or yours, I treat every pet like family and focus on building trust, ensuring comfort, and giving them all the care and attention they deserve.

Jennifer is kind, responsible, responsive, and reliable.”


“Emily took great care of my needy guy not only by feeding him but giving him love and cuddles. I received lots of pictures of my cat sprawled over her or next to her so I know he was well taken care of and spoiled rotten ?”


About: I’ve been taking care of pets such as guinea pigs, budgie birds, hamsters, dogs, and of course cats as I was growing up. I personally don’t have a dog of my own, but I’ve taken care of my friends dogs numerous times. I also love to do extensive research when it comes to our different type of fur babies health. For example their diets, how active they should be, what type of environment they need to be in, and etc. I would only be available on holidays and weekends, I currently work a full day, so I would be available anytime during those days. My personal pet care schedule usually deals with feeding in the morning, having an automatic feeder during the afternoon, and then feed her dinner when I get home. If you were to have a dog boarded here, they would have to be friendly towards cats, my cat did grow up with a dog so she’s friendly with dogs.

Every time I see my babies after Jenice has been with them; they are always wearing something brand new or have a new favorite toy!
