“Gabriele is a super reliable rover! She brought games over for our golden to play while she was visiting and provided photos of our pup during the visit! I would recommend her to anyone looking for an awesome pet sitter and friend for their furry pal.”
“Zoe is the best pet sitter! She is very reliable and has great communication. She made sure to take her time with my dog by walking, playing, and cuddling with him. She also sent me lots of photos of him and he looked so happy with her. I will definitely be booking her to watch my pets next time I’m out of town!”
“If you have cats and need care for them when you are not home, Casey is your answer. It is obvious she cares about felines and knows how to care for them. She came to our home to check on our three, sent pictures and made sure all were OK while we were out of town. Such a relief to have someone in the area that you can count on for care and check-ins.”
“Hanna did a wonderful job caring for my elderly cat. She sent sweet pictures and thorough am/pm updates. Hanna is warm, outgoing, engaged, enthusiastic, caring, sincere and confident. My cat takes several meds- topical, injection, and oral and she was able to administer successfully. Not only that but she went above and beyond loving on him and giving him quality time. I highly recommend Hanna.”
About: I live with two sweet cats who each have their own quirks, routines, and strong opinions—so I totally understand how unique every pet can be. One loves to cuddle, the other prefers space, and both have taught me a lot about reading body language, building trust, and keeping a calm, consistent routine. Beyond my own cats, I’ve cared for a variety of pets through house sitting, including multi-week stays back in my hometown and weekends with animals who needed a little extra attention or care. I’m confident handling feeding schedules, administering meds, cleaning up accidents, and just being a calm, reliable presence so pets feel safe and happy while their humans are away. Pet care fits really naturally into my routine—I work part-time, so I’m usually only away for 2 to 5 hours at a time. That means I can give pets plenty of attention throughout the day, whether they need regular walks, playtime, or just someone around to keep them company. I’m flexible and happy to adjust to different care needs, whether that’s staying overnight, checking in a few times a day, or just stopping by for a potty break and some quick playtime. I know every pet is different, and I’m all about making sure they feel safe, loved, and relaxed while you’re away. When I care for pets in their homes, I focus on keeping their environment safe, familiar, and low-stress. I know how important it is for animals to stay in their own space where they feel comfortable and secure, so I do my best to stick to their routines and respect their boundaries. I pay attention to little details—like closing doors and gates, keeping feeding areas clean, and making sure they always have fresh water and cozy spots to rest. I’m also happy to water plants and help with small house tasks while you’re away. My goal is to create a calm, trusted atmosphere where pets can relax and feel cared for until their people return home.
About: I have taken care of my neighbors dogs ever since I was ten years old. I currently take care of my four dogs and absolutely love animals of all kinds. I am used to following specific instructions relating to healthcare protocols. I pay close attention to detail and am looking forward to meeting furry friends I am currently transitioning from my time serving in the military for the past four years. I am currently taking a break from work before I begin my next journey. I offer plenty of love and am willing to provide any animal care services needed! I love exercising and playing with animals and can’t wait to care for your animal
About: I have experience with all different kinds and size animals. I grew up on a cattle ranch and competed in 4h. My family has never had less than 5 dogs at the house that ranged all the way from yorkies to, herlers to, corgis to, pyrenees. I own a mastiff/Dane/ Corso mix of my own who is the biggest gentle giant. So I understand working dogs and excited dogs and even lazy dogs. I think it’s important for our pets to have consistency with food schedules, walks, outdoor time, and night time routines to help them feel comfortable. I also grew up sneaking barn cats home and had to learn to tame them so I’ve experienced some pretty feral kittens who turn out being so sweet. Our pets mean so much to us. I am currently working part time and have a flexible schedule! I always have my phone on me and can make myself available especially incase of emergencies. I believe it’s important to make sure dogs get plenty of outdoor time and exercise, It’s also very important to me to keep pets on a consistent schedule to help make them a little more comfortable. Being a pet owner myself helps me understand how important our pets really are.

“Allison did a great job of taking care of our cats while we were out of town. She brushed our one cat who gets very nervous and is calmed by being brushed. She made sure they had water and food (and their treats) and cleaned out their litter box daily. She gave them attention and loving and sent us detailed updates daily along with photos. We knew they had been well cared for when we arrived home and the cats acted as if we had just run an errand and not that we had been gone for five days. We will definitely be asking Allison to watch our cats again.”
