“Kolleen has cared for my dog, Casey, three times. She is a fantastic sitter. Her attention to detail is admirable, she makes sure that she understands exactly what is needed. In addition to providing outstanding care, she has taken Casey on a couple of "field trips" (with my permission, of course) and he has had so much fun with her. I highly recommend Kolleen.”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since i was 6 years old. I will take them for walks, play with them, make sure they are comfortable at their home. I’m super attentive and trustworthy, plus I’ve got experience with puppy training and senior pet care, so your furry friends get extra love and attention while you’re gone! I work part time currently and will have plenty time to care for your pet as you need. I am always available to help out with whatever you need me for! I prioritize safety by following all care instructions carefully and keeping pets in a secure environment at your home. I build trust through clear communication and consistent updates, and I make sure to create a calm, clean, and loving space that respects both the pets’ needs and the environment they’re used to.

About: I have taken care of animals since I was younger. I have 3 years of experience when it comes to dog sitting and house sitting. I always make sure to accompany the pet as often as possible so that they feel cared for and less anxious being away from their owner. I aim to provide the best service and care for pets. I’m currently working full time throughout the week, but I can still find time to take care of someone’s pet before and after my shift. In a client’s home, I can feed, walk, and entertain your pet as needed. I can make sure they have water and food available before I leave to work and I can also put the pet in a crate if the owner asks.

About: I'm a licensed small-animal veterinarian retired from 40 years of clinical work. I'm comfortable with pets of all needs, including medical treatments. I wish to continue service to animals through providing daily care. I love being around animals of all types, including dogs, cats, rabbits, rodents, birds, reptiles, fish, horses, cattle, sheep, goats, etc. I also have a wealth of training experience based on positive reinforcement. I'm retired from clinical settings (working under my maiden name Carol Hansen, DVM), and still maintain an active lifestyle. I'm free most days. My routine is very flexible. I spend time with my own 2 dogs and 5 feral cats. I love travel and seeing wildlife worldwide. I have done pet care for my own and others' pets for most of my life. I'm very honest, trustworthy, and conscientious in making sure animals thrive in a healthy environment.

I am very open to discussing schedules and am very flexible as my classes are online with no set time. Feel free to reach out to discuss what works best for you. Your pets safety is of the utmost importance and I will make sure they are properly looked after and stay vigilant of any possible dangers.

About: As the token "animal lover" friend and family member, I've been the go-to for all things caretaker since I was young. It's my pleasure and joy to spend time with animals; I'm extremely attentive, love to give pets and cuddle. As a pet owner myself, I always worry if the sitters I have to watch my babies are going to be attentive enough and really ensure that they feel loved-- so that's always my MO. I currently work from home with a super flexible schedule, so I'm easily able to accommodate last minute requests as well as regularly scheduled visits for your fur babies! I'm a cuddler, and love to go on multiple daily walks myself, so you never have to worry about me just "checking the box" and leaving. I love to hang around, am very present with my visits, and big on cuddles. I believe I'm the perfect fit for anyone who wants to make sure their fur babies are well loved and seeking lots of pets/ attention. When taking care of another's fur baby, I always strive to meet the animal where they are and ensure that they feel as comfortable as possible as I know missing mom and dad can be hard and produce anxiety. I'm big on giving cuddles, attention, keeping them busy and going for walks, etc. More than happy to administer medication, stick to any special routines, and keep things as "normal" as possible. I'm extremely reliable and responsible; caretaking is one of my callings in this life and I thoroughly enjoy being that resource for others :)

“We are a four dog family and asked much of Jalissa watching them all during our home’s open house. She managed to keep them all very happy taking them for long walks and sending lots of photos of their adventures. Caring for four dogs at once is not for the weak of heart and she did an amazing job. I would entrust our pups to her anytime. She takes your dogs on as her own and makes sure they’re happy while you’re gone. Thank you Jalissa!”

“This was the first time Rebecca took care of my fur babies. I had been nervous about having a new pet sitter, but I could tell right away that I didn't need to worry any longer. She is wonderful with animals and I'm so happy to have found her.”


“Camryn is the BEST!!! She took such wonderful care of our 2 kids. A German Shepherd and Shitzu. She is excellent with animals and so caring. We will definitely contact her again. She also updated us with photos all day! 10 stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️! ❤️???”


About: I am reliable and very responsible with all fur babies! I am confident in CPR for animals, but still working on certification.

Currently, I have live online classes monday 3-9:30 and I am a clinical intern in the mental health field. Those work hours very, but I like to keep them strictly to Tuesdays and Thursdays. Depending on needs, I can be very flexible! Many services I provide include walking, housesitting, potty training, bathing and other basic needs.

Michael M.

“Michael is a caring sitter who will treat your pet as if they were a human being. Rufus is an important part of our family and it is difficult to leave when Rufus is unfamiliar with his care taker. Rufus is always happy to see Michael when he arrives. We feel comfortable with the service Michael provides and he follows our instruction. He is very organized and will love your pet as if they were his own. The relationships Michael builds with your pet is a unique one. You will feel comfortable and safe knowing your pet is in Michael's care.”
