It was our very first time using this service and we were a bit nervous. Jeff was available even on the short notice. From the first time we met Jeff we felt good. He is an experienced sitter. Cats felt comfortable around him. Jeff was very responsible. He ensured we received photos from each visit. Cats looked good and relaxed. Definitely will be calling him again in the future.

Lee was able to watch my pup over a holiday weekend last minute and took great care of her! I would highly recommend Lee for anyone looking for a sitter.

About: Hello! I’ve cared for dogs and cats for years — including rescues, seniors, and pups with lots of energy! I’m patient, reliable, and comfortable with feeding routines, meds, and special care needs. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I promise to keep you updated with cute pictures and messages throughout their stay. Your fur baby’s comfort and safety come first! 🐕✨ I am currently working part time. Which is Tues-Sat 4pm-11pm tho so I’m anytime free before then. & I am off every Sunday and Monday I rent a home with a fenced in backyard. I do currently have 2 dogs. (Chihuahua mixes and a heeler mix.) they are crate trained so if you’re more comfortable with them staying separated from your baby(ies) that is absolutely no problem, depending on the duration of the stay.

About: Taking care of your animal will be my number one priority. I love animals, I will be more than attentive to their needs and accommodate anything you would like. I’m available any time you need me and I will take in any animal, big, small, furry, hairless, you name it! I love them all. I’ve had animals my whole life so I know how to take care of dogs, I’ve had cats now for 5 years and kittens and it’s a handful but it has taught me so many things needed to be a perfect sitter! I love getting pets toys, and fancy food sometimes to spoil them so expect that (if it’s fone with the owner) of course. I can’t wait to meet you and your lovely pet!

About: Lifelong animal lover experienced in nature walks, companion feedings, soothing chest rubs, treat distribution, and earning a cats trust. I will make sure your pets are happy, safe, and properly spoiled while you’re away! I am currently working part time after a career shift. My days have too much down time and I decided to fill those hours doing something I love! I closely monitor outdoor time to ensure the pet is secure in the yard. I remain aware and assess surroundings when walking dogs to prepare for any triggers the dog may have. I closely follow food, and potty, schedules so as not to upset the pet and to make transition of care easier.

Samantha is the best! So greatful she was our sitter. Samantha followed all the instructions I had to take care of my senior (18 yr) cat. Her and Noel became friends after a few days. I would definitely trust Samantha with my pets. She was even nice enough to leave additional lights on knowing we were going to come home late.

About: Having raised both cats and dogs, I can understand the signs and characteristics of both; I love taking pictures of people’s pets (with permission!) which means updates aren’t an issue! I feed off their energy, and believe that mental stimulation and exercise are incredibly important in their daily lives— they don’t want to be bored anymore than we do! Senior animal care is something I’ve also had plenty of experience with my own; ensuring that they have the most comfortable spot to lay in and help going from floor to floor are vital. I’m free from mornings til evenings for drop-in visits, walks and pet-sitting during your workday! I’ve also pet-sat in the past, so in the future once I’m got things going here may be a possibility! In my home, having a dog that follows you around means never having to wonder too long what they’re up to. That said, I always try to make sure that pets are within eyesight at home to prevent shenanigans, but never bark at them (no pun intended) unless it’s a matter of vital safety. I let the pets work me out at their own pace for trust and snuggles. ☺️ If there is ever a critical medical issue, I will be sure to notify the pet parent and take them to their preferred vet facility of choice. I don’t take chances with their health or safety—I can’t stress this enough.

About: Hi! My name is Ruthie, and I’ve been around dogs my whole life (& have adopted my best friend of four years!) From training puppies to caring for senior dogs, I have experience with all stages of a pup’s life. I’ve also pet-sat for family dogs on and off for about two years and have had my own dogs for 8 years, so I understand how important it is to find someone reliable and trustworthy to care for your furry family members. I’m patient, attentive, and love spending time with dogs—whether it’s going for walks, playing, or just giving them the attention they deserve. I also have experience with basic training and can reinforce commands if needed. Every dog has their own personality, and I take the time to ensure they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I am currently taking online summer classes with a part time job. Pet care naturally fits into my schedule and I am happy to be flexible for your scheduling needs! I provide pet care through check-in visits and dog walking. I prioritize each pet’s routine and comfort, ensuring they feel safe and well cared for while their owner is away. Please let me know any important details about your dog or anything I should prepare in advance to help them feel as comfortable as possible.

Emalee is amazing!!! I highly recommend her services. Emalee takes care of Scooby every week while I'm at work. Emalee never disappoints. She is amazing with Scooby, at least that's what he told me! Lol. Emalee is always early and her communication skills are fantastic. You will get a response quickly. She is also very very flexible. I couldn't ask for more!

About: I've had experience taking care of animals (& dogs) of all sizes. I had a Great Dane for almost 8 years and I've also had small dogs so I know what to expect from any sized dogs. I love playing with dogs since they're so fun and high energy which is something I can relate to. Animals in general have always seemed to really like me for some reason. I've had pets throughout my entire life so I'm very used to being around animals of all sorts. I've had dogs, cats, fish, rats, a rabbit, a hedgehog, and a tarantula. I have a B.S. in biology with a focus on animals in my studies. I love all animals, but have always found myself to be a cat person at heart! I'm available after 3pm and all day on weekends. My work schedule is subject to changes, but I'm also rather flexible when it comes to times, just reach out to me. I have a fenced in yard, but I feel more comfortable with pets in a place where they're also most comfortable with me, so I've found not coming to my home better.

About: With over 5 years of hands-on dog watching experience, I provide more than supervision I provide stability, attentiveness, and genuine care. Over the years, I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes, breeds, temperaments, and ages. From energetic puppies who need structured activity to senior dogs who thrive on a calm, predictable pace, I understand how important it is to adapt to each dog’s individual needs. What truly sets me apart is the balance I bring between structure and affection. Dogs feel most secure when their routine stays consistent, so I make it a priority to maintain their normal schedule as closely as possible. My daily routine typically includes on-time feedings, fresh water refresh, bathroom breaks, and exercise tailored to your dog’s energy level. Whether that means long walks, active play sessions, enrichment activities, or simply relaxed companionship, I adjust based on what your dog needs that day. Beyond the basics, I focus on mental stimulation and emotional well-being. I reinforce positive behaviors, engage in interactive play, and ensure your dog has both active time and calm downtime. I work overnight shifts during the week, and I dedicate my weekends fully to pet care. This allows me to provide focused, unrushed attention from Friday through Sunday. I intentionally keep my weekend availability open for pet sitting so I can give each pet consistent, quality care without overbooking. Weekend care includes structured routines with feedings, walks, playtime, enrichment, and calm companionship tailored to your pet’s needs. I make sure their schedule stays consistent and stress-free while you’re away. When caring for your pet in your home, my goal is to keep everything as normal and stress-free as possible. Pets are most comfortable in their own environment, so I prioritize maintaining their routine, respecting their space, and creating a calm, consistent presence while you’re away.

About: I started dog sitting when I was in high school. I got my dog when I was a freshman in college and needed a friend. Since then, I have loved dog sitting so my puppy can make more friends and I can fill up my free time! I have recently graduated college and have lots of free time in between work! I love spending my time caring for pets, and available any time of the week! I have one dog of my own that can be crated when needed, but can keep your fur baby company. I have a nice trail by my home for nice long walks!

About: I have always loved animals, especially dogs! I am a responsible, energetic, caring person that would love to take care of your pet! Your pets are part of the family, just like mine. I have experience dog sitting small to medium sized dogs. I am not strong enough to walk or care for larger dogs (unless of course they are great on the leash walking). I do not discriminate against any kind of breeds. I have two dogs of my own that are chihuahua and chihuahua mix. I have cared for small chihuahuas to larger pit bulls. Just message me with your needs as I work part time as a dental hygienist so I will work around my hours. I, also, volunteer at a wild animal rescue where I get to care for raccoons, foxes, deer, possums, squirrels and rabbits under the supervision of a veterinarian. I love animals of all kinds! Caring for animals is a passion of mine !
