“Blair was a life saver when I needed a sitter last minute! She was quick to respond and always answered texts/communications promptly. I cannot thank her enough for caring for my fur babies. She relieved any anxiety I had by sending lots of picture updates and always keeping me in the loop! Again, I can't thank Blair enough for her care and compassion. I will definitely be rebooking with her in the future! Thank you Blair!”


“Blake was amazing! He came to meet our dogs and asked great questions. He arrived on time and sent pictures! We loved that our dogs were well taken care of and loved while we were gone. Blake left our home perfectly cleaned and the dogs were well cared for. Will absolutely book Blake for future trips we have. Loved having Blake take care of our house and 3 dogs!”


“We couldn't be happier with Sean's pet-sitting services! He took incredible care of our three cats and our potbelly pig. Leaving our pig can be a source of major anxiety for us, but Sean handled everything with such skill and confidence. It was a huge relief to come home to happy, well-adjusted animals. He truly went above and beyond. Highly recommend and will definitely be rebooking!”


“Andrew and Evelyn were fantastic with both Beasley and myself. I will use them again and again.”


About: When i start college in January, i plan to take agriculture and own a ranch/farm rescue for dogs and any animals in need. Animals are my best friend and i couldn’t ever imagine being without them. I’ve taken care of 10 dogs most of my life. My parents love animals so i’ve always been around different kind of animals. They currently have 3 bunnies, guinea pigs, 10 cocker spaniels and 1 lab, and 2 cats. When they are away i am the main person to take care of them since they also foster and i’m the oldest kid in the family. I know how to care for dogs of all sizes, breeds, temperaments and personalities. I also am experienced in special needs dogs, my parents have a cocker spaniel who has special needs and he’s the sweetest dog i’ve ever met. Me and my girlfriend do this together and she is an amazing help, she’s cared for many animals like horses, dogs, cats, and fish. she’s like an animal whisperer.. she always knows what the animal wants and needs and always tends to them. she especially knows how to make dogs feel at home. ❤️🔥🐾 I had a senior dog , izzy who had cancer and i did my best to make her feel cared for through the time she had left. I really take my time caring for dogs with special needs and who are older, they need fun and love. 🐾 What i offer : • Boarding (Overnight stays) • At your home doggie sitting • Day care • Walking • Drop in visits • Clean, and spacious home • Structured play time, nap time and lovin time • Fully fenced in yard for supervised outdoor play and potty time • A calm living space where pups are free to play and relax • Lots of squeaky toys and stuffed animals 🦴🧸 • Doggie pool for the hot summer days 💦 • 2 walks a day 🐕 if they need more we are happy to provide more walks :) I understand how stressful it can be to leave your dog with someone new. That’s why i am firm on communication. I’ll send you updates, videos and pictures so you can see how much fun their having and be comfortable having them in my hands :) I am home most of the day, there may be a time where i have to run to do an errand like grocery shopping etc. My girlfriend is home all the time so she will be home to take care of your pups. Their safety and well being always comes first 🐶 Im 18 and work from home with my girlfriend. We are available 7 days a week. I have a fully fenced in yard so your pup can play outside and be safe. My home is tidy, and very clean. We make sure everything is put away. We know how it is to have a pup that likes to put everything in their mouth so we make sure to vacuum and mop. I live in a quiet little neighborhood. My house is a very spacious 4,000 square foot home and it was a church before it was turned into a house so it’s very unique. I have a cocker spaniel and a brittany mix, they are both very sweet and love new company. My brittany is 15 so he kinda just lays around but my cocker spaniel is 3 so she loveeesss to play.

About: My name is Kristen and I am 35 years old. I would like to offer to you my dog services to you, which would include watching your dog, walking, running, feeding and making sure they have plenty of exercise!! I have a true love for animals and love working with them. I have much experience with different breeds of dogs and would like to meet your friend!! I also will offer pick up and drop off to better serve you. About this sitter: I love working with people and their pets!! I am able to walk, run, and play with your dogs whenever you need me! I care for pets by greeting them and playing with them, taking them on runs or walks, giving them extra affection and attention and treats!

“This is the second time Brittany has watched our pets for us and we absolutely love when she's here! She spends lots of time with our guys, makes sure our dog gets out for walks (even when the weather isn't great), and takes incredibly great care of our house! She goes above and beyond to ask if there are things around the house she can help with, like watering plants or getting garbage cans out. We'd love to have her back in the future!”


“Rachel did such an amazing job caring for our labradoodle, Stella. She’s 3 and never been left alone for more than a few hours. Rachel eased our minds and took wonderful care of her while we were gone for a last minute trip! Rachel was very kind, understanding and easy going. She made the process very easy and painless. She also did a great job communicating with us. We highly recommend Rachel!”


“Ariel was great about sending me updates and including lots of pictures! Everything was left very tidy and she even left me an adorable sketch of Al!”


“Jordan met my pets before house sitting. I could tell right away that he was interested in my 2 dogs and a cat. He got down on their level and rubbed ears and neck exactly as they prefer. He was wonderful even doing little chores around the house unasked but very appreciated. All my pets are on meds and he managed them without difficulty even my cat’s ear med. Usually when I get home, my cat cries for a day as she is so happy to be back on her routine with me. This time she hardly peeped, letting me know that Jordan had been a pretty good substitute. I really wish I could keep Jordan a secret but I guess I need to share how good he is.”


About: I’ve walked dogs of every breed weekly for 5 years at an animal shelter, so I have lots of experience caring for and walking dogs of all shapes and sizes. I can handle large dogs and small dogs without issue, I love all dogs equally!! I was taught all the signs of dogs so I know how to read their emotions and adjust accordingly. I love to play with dogs and cuddle as well when they are up for it. My family has had a dog my whole life so I have lots of care experience. I work full time during the week (7-3), so after and before work is when I can walk or let out dogs. My weekends are completely free for boarding, walking, and sitting! I can also let dogs out on my lunch break depending on distance. I have 1 dog in my home, he is a sweetheart so no worries there! I also live alone so no issues with roomates or space. I have a yard and a dog park in my neighborhood, but it is not fenced. I pay strict attention to dogs I am watching and make sure they are always happy and healthy, I do not take my eyes off of them! I walk dogs focused with no music or phone distraction to make sure I am ready for anything, and I have handled aggressive dogs often and can adjust when needed. I always clean up if accidents happen, and I leave places better than I found them, always!

About: As a pet sitter, my greatest joy comes from the wagging tails and purrs of contentment I receive from the animals in my care. Each pet is unique, and I take pride in understanding their individual needs and personalities. Whether it's a playful pup who loves fetch or a cuddly cat who enjoys a good nap, I ensure they feel safe, loved, and happy while their owners are away. Knowing that I can provide peace of mind to pet parents and a comfortable environment for their furry friends is what makes pet sitting so rewarding for me. I am freshly graduated from empire beauty cosmetology school. I now work in a restaurant so I have mornings and early afternoons available and nights. I have 2 dogs at home and used to have a cat. Everyday it is my duty to feed, water, and play with my pups to keep them happy and healthy, and I can do the same for yours!

About: "With over a decade of hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of pets, from playful puppies and senior cats to Guinea pigs and hamsters. I bring a deep understanding of animal behavior, nutrition, and health. My compassionate approach ensures every pet feels safe, loved, and well-cared for, while providing peace of mind to their owners." As a self employed person my schedule is generally flexible. I am available most days and I wouldn’t accept a service that I am unable to commit to if my work interrupts. If planned in advance, I can create my schedules around your needs. As a dog walker I will take whichever route is best for your pet. If they prefer a certain direction I will happily take them. If they are curious and want to go somewhere else, I’m good for that too! As a sitter in your home I will always do my best to stick to any routines they are familiar with to ease any anxiety of their humans not being home for them. I’m happy to sit or check on cats if owners are traveling. I know most cats are okay with a clean litter box and food. They are certainly self sufficient little critters. I have 5 in my own home and care for 15 feral fur babies that we attempt to spay or neuter when we can catch them and release them back to our yard where they know food is always available. They also have warm homes for those cold winter nights.

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 12, through all stages of life, from puppy to adult to senior. I worked at a dog daycare and have experience with dog kenneling. I am a full time student with an extremely flexible schedule, so I have full availability to care for your pets. I am available anytime, any day of the week. I will care for the pet(s) as agreed upon by the owner, I am extremely flexible and will follow any instructions for caring for your pets.

About: I have have taken care of dogs of all sizes for over 15 yrs. I have 4 of my own ranging in size and age. I also fostered for a couple years, helping puppy mill dogs learn how to live life. Rehabilitating mistreated dogs to learn how to play, potty train, trust people, go up and down stairs and become happy pups again. I have 3 older children 9, 13 and 16 that have my same passion for dogs. Excited to take care of your baby and give them love while your away! I work M-W 10 AM - 3. I work from home on Thursday and Friday. We are home on weekends. Once summer starts there will be someone home all day. Dogs would be dropped off or come over for a meet and great. I have 4 of my own dogs that are extremely socialized due to fostering. Never have had any issues. I have a big fenced backyard that the dogs can run around in. If it’s sunny out, I like to leave the door open so they can come in and out as they please. Dogs will be crated at night if they are not potty trained. If your dog is stressed or has severe anxiety etc, they will sleep with us so they know they are safe. I keep multiple bowls of dog food down and have taught my dogs not to be aggressive. If you bring your own food, I will separate your dog so he/she can eat their own food alone. We do allow dogs on the couch and in bed with us. I do have a basement setup with couches, toys and crates of varying sizes. They will have a blanket and you with them in each crate. Any messes will be washed out and exchanged for clean bedding each day.
