Along with Parker, we were delighted to meet Jill. We found her to be kind, compassionate, and capable. We had no qualms about leaving Parker in her good care and will do so again when the need arises. We highly recommend Jill!

Lauren's "roll with the punches" attitude really meant a lot -- she was super easy to contact, we stayed in touch regularly about the pets, and she didn't mind the logistical complications of a confusing apartment complex. Our dog and cat loved their time with Lauren (the cat even came out of hiding!). We will definitely look to Lauren when we travel again!

Brittany was great with Ruger! She took fantastic care of him and our home. He is a pretty anxious guy, and there were severe storms, and she was so great with him and let him be as close to her as he needed to be. He loved having her here. We will definitely be using her again! It was so nice having her here to take care of him and to be in our house with him so we didn’t have to worry about anything.

About: I’ve got a senior dog who is diabetic, and am well versed in providing medication to older animals. I am able to make homemade pet food for special dietary needs clients as well. I am currently a college student, so pet care is an amazing job to have while dealing with school. I adore animals and love making sure they are well pampered, taken care of, and given lots of affection. My schedule is very light, so being able to make quick trips in the middle of the day is perfectly reasonable, and longer early morning and evening visits are perfect! Within my own home, my pets are spoiled rotten in the healthiest ways possible. They are given homemade food, lots of supplemental treats, and given their medication in a timely manner. I love to play with my pets, as well as my clients: I am always down for a good game of tug-o-war or fetch.

About: I have a genuine dedication to each animal's comfort and well-being. I take the time to understand every pet's unique personality, routine, and needs, ensuring they feel safe and cared for while their owners are away. I am reliable, attentive, and treat every pet as if they were my own. I am going to school for Fisheries and Wildlife sciences, I am available during the week and most weekends. I love animals so I am happy to visit them whenever needed. I have a large fenced in yard, fenced in porch, and love being outside. If your dog prefers indoors, we have a large open floor plan for them to roam with plenty of comfy spots to nap!

Avery was fantastic with my large energetic dog. She was communicative and sent lots of photos. I can’t thank her enough for easing my sense of worry about leaving my fur child at home.

About: I’ve had pets ever since I was a baby. I also volunteer with local shelters off and on and deal with pets from all backgrounds. Don’t know if this is a plus but I’ve also taken care of bears at a sanctuary before! I work full time, so I can tend to your pets before work, on lunch break, and after work! I usually work from 9-6 5 days on and 2 days off. I prefer to stay at a clients home. But I do have a fenced in yard that your dog would be in when I’m home. When I’m gone your dog would be inside. I have a friendly 9 year old Labrador mix that is low-maintenance and also have a higher maintenance dog that comes over frequently.

About: Over the years, I have owned many dogs and cats and have taken good care of them, and loved them more than I could put into words! I have also had stranger animals, such as birds, horses, and more. I am reliable, honest, and can't wait to show your animal family some love and care! I am a full time college student and very active in other groups as well. My schedule is often busy but when I am in town and not in class I have more time to come and see your pets! Most weekends I am in Russellville and I am able to come by and check on your animals! While my schedule can be busy, I will do my best to make my schedule on the app clear and concise! I live in the dorms most of the time, so I will only care for pets in your home. When I am in your home to take care of your pets, if you let me know what you want to be done (and it is within my scope) I will do it! Usually, when I have petsit in the past, I will make sure to do what needs to be done such as give food, water, and other needs and then stay for a while with the pets and show them some love before I have to go!

About: Hello! My name is Katherine, but you can call me Alex (less formal and easier to remember) I've been around many kinds of pets all my life! Dogs, cats, bunnies, guinea pigs, and even some fish and I have always treated them with the highest amount of care and respect! So no matter what, you can trust that I will love, care for, and respect your pets as much as you do I don't have a job currently, so I'm pretty free up all the time. I can't do boarding or care at my residence, but I can do whatever care you need at your home. I can do whatever is needed, feeding, watering, walking, brushing, nail trims, baths, sneaking in the cheeky pill for the stubborn dog or cat. Basically any care you need from me, I can do.

Lisa was really awesome with my Great Dane. She came early so my girl wouldn't be alone and it made me feel so much better and allowed me to enjoy my time away from my girl. I highly recommend Lisa for all your pet needs. She stepped in for me last minute after another sitter canceled on me a day before my trip. Lisa is a very sweet lady.

About: I took care of my boys for just over 14 years, twin Shih Tzu’s, they were the loves of my life. They taught me more patience and much more research especially when they became seniors and required medications. After their passing I’ve been honored to take care of others fur babies, 3 goldens + 1 king cavelier and another’s cat. I loved every minute of spending time, walking, playing and even just sitting with them for company. I’m currently working part time and am flexible to help out with your fur babies whether you need someone to stop by for a few hours or need someone to watch them overnight. I will, with your instructions, care for your pet(s) just as you would. Currently I am unable to care for them in my own home.

About: I have had dogs and cats my whole life. I have experience with big dogs and tiny lap dogs. I have pet sat for a family that had multiple cats all with different feeding needs. I currently have one dog that is high energy. I currently work with children with autism. My work schedule varys and I'm looking to fill in the free time. I don't work on the weekends and I'm usually off work by three. I enjoy getting cuddles and rewarding my pets with snacks for good behavior. I believe it's good to have regular exercise and positive reinforcements for good behavior.

Jill was awesome! She took and sent the most adorable pictures of our sweet boy while we were gone. She took him on walks and played with him in the yard. She even washed the bedding after she left. She was amazing! Highly recommend! We will definitely request her again.

Our new regular dog sitter! We always get a little antsy leaving our dogs with someone new but they made sure to keep us updated the entire time, our dogs were happy as could be when we came home, and they loved our dogs as much as the dogs loved them! Can’t recommend enough!
