About: For over a decade, I have taken care of all kinds of dogs from varying backgrounds with the utmost care and love. I have experience following medication routines, dietary specifications, and facilitating engaging activities for your pups’ comfort. I have two of my own fur babies that are my whole life, but they have their unique quirks; I understand how important your favorite family member is, and how necessary it is to have someone capable of adapting to their needs! Currently I’m taking time away from work to take care of family. I have a very open schedule and can stay nights if need be! I’ve seen time and again that it is best to care for dogs where they are most comfortable: in their own home! My goal is keeping your pup on their set routine so they don’t feel any discomfort while their family is temporarily away.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have experience caring for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs. I’m also comfortable managing multiple pets at once and making sure each one gets the attention they deserve. I truly see dogs and cats as part of the family, and I treat every pet in my care like my own—with love, patience, and plenty of attention. I work from home, which allows me to be present and attentive throughout the day. Pet care is part of my daily routine, so your dog will have plenty of supervision, companionship, and care. I’m able to take regular breaks for walks, playtime, and check-ins, ensuring your pet stays happy and comfortable. I tailor my care to each pet’s needs, routine, and personality. In my home, pets receive lots of attention, regular walks or potty breaks, and a calm, safe environment. I make sure they feel comfortable and cared for, just like they would at home. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely—from feeding schedules to walks, medications, and preferred routines. I’m respectful, clean, and treat both your pet and your home with care. I also provide updates so you always know how your pet is doing whether at my home or yours.
About: My name is Wenese, I’m 30 years old, and I have experience caring for both dogs and cats of different sizes and personalities. I truly love animals and treat every pet like they’re my own while making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m dependable, patient, and attentive to each pet’s routine and needs, whether that’s walks, playtime, medication support, or extra cuddles. I also provide updates and photos for peace of mind while you’re away. I completely understand that life happens, so I don’t mind last-minute cancellations or schedule changes when possible. My goal is to make things stress-free for both you and your pets! I currently work a hybrid job. Which requires me 3 days in office, 2 days at home, the only mandatory day in office is Wednesdays. I am flexible otherwise I care for every pet as if they were my own, while closely following the routine they’re already familiar with. My goal is to keep things consistent, comfortable, and stress-free—so both you and your pet feel completely at ease.
About: As a long-time owner and caretaker for pets of all sizes, breeds, and personalities (from high-energy dogs to independent cats and even the occasional reptile in between), I understand how much trust it takes to leave your baby with someone else, and that is a responsibility I do not take lightly. I have hands-on experience with everything from everyday routines to more complex medical and behavioral needs, so I’m comfortable handling a wide range of situations calmly and confidently. I’m very attentive, reliable, and focused on making sure your pet feels safe, cared for, and comfortable while you’re away. At the end of the day, I treat every pet like they’re my own—and work hard to make sure you feel just as confident and at ease as they do! I work remotely, so thankfully I’m able to fit pet care naturally into my day. I’m around to make sure they’re cared for consistently—whether that’s walks, meals, playtime, potty breaks or anything else they might need. I’m intentional about the bookings I accept and only take on clients when I can provide their pets the level of care and attention they deserve. My goal when caring for your pet while you’re away is always the same—to create a calm, comfortable environment where they feel safe, relaxed, and right at home, while also giving you, their pawrent, complete peace of mind knowing they’re in great hands.

“Lori was incredible and I will absolutely be asking her to watch my cat Teddy again when I need a cat sitter. She very clearly loves cats and takes incredible care! Teddy doesn’t do very well when we go out of town, but when we returned, he was very happy and content showing me that Lori went above and beyond with his care. She provided great updates and made me feel at ease about being gone. I'm very thankful to have found her and cannot recommend her enough!”
“Summer was amazing ❤️ I had to find a sitter last minute and she was willing to rearrange her schedule to helps us walk our pups. I will definitely call her again for future dates. Thank you so much Summer ?”
“Caitlin is wonderful. We were stranded out of town for 48 extra hours on our trip and she stepped right up, taking great care of our dog on those unexpected days. We always have a little anxiety leaving our elder dog and then to have extra days on top - but Caitlin communicates with each visit and provides photos so we can see our old girl is doing just fine. Thank you!!”

I cannot say enough about how wonderful Catherine is - my cat Max loves her, and she is simply amazing with him. She always gives him so much attention and affection when she is caring for him. I love getting the pictures, notes and updates each time she drops in to care for him. He was comfortable around her from day one ; I have had her look after my fur baby several times already and I will be rebooking with her again. Thank you, Catherine.
I cannot recommend Kari enough. She was willing to work with me last minute, and then went above and beyond while watching my crazies. I have three dogs that have just moved across the country, two of them are geriatric, and they were leaving masses all over the place. Kari it took care of it like a champ, even offered to help clean and put a load of wash in, etc. Bringing her own mop to make sure the house was left in better condition she found it in while simultaneously taking such good care of my babies. As a sitter on her, Myself, I would have to say that this is exactly the type of person you want watching your pets. ❤️ thanks Kari, I will definitely be reaching out to you again soon!
Joy was wonderful! She took great care of my fur tribe while I was away. I felt like she really cared for them and gave them the love and attention I would during her visits. She was very communicative. It was great knowing that my fur babies were well cared for while I was away ❤️
Allison took excellent care of my pets - dropping in multiple times a day and even going above and beyond picking up after there mini house renovations and bathroom stops outside! She managed multiple feeding scheudles and meds. Our pets were stress free during our trip because of Allison's care. We will be continuing to book with Allison for our pet care.
Ilene is the best! She meet with us ahead of time to introduce herself and meet our 4 babies before our vacation. She was so kind and communicated every step of the way. We felt so at ease while we were away! She took pictures and gave updates. Ilene is a true animal lover and we will definitely be rebooking with her! Thank you so much for Ilene for your care for our babies while we were away!
Summer is our go-to sitter for our cats. We know they are being loved and cared for while we are away. She spends time playing with our high energy kitten and is patient with our older shy cat. Thanks again Summer for a great job looking after our two…it’s great to be able to get away and not worry about them. We most definitely will be calling on you again.
