“I recently had Sara come over to meet with my dog. It was obvious she is an animal person right away. She asked a lot of questions and wanted to make sure my dog would be well cared for. A last minute schedule change by me but she was able to do two 1-hour drop-in visits. She kept me in the loop on arrival, sent pictures of my smiling dog, a summary of how the visit went, and then when she was leaving. She did a fantastic job. Very trustworthy and I definitely plan on hiring her again to pet sit.”
“Allison is the best! She was reliable and responsible and took great care of my babies! Getting updates and photos when I was so far away was so great. I knew they were well taken care of!”
“Halligan is great with my old guy! Understands his gentle needs, is patient with him and is able to give medication if needed or asked! 1000% recommend Halligan for anybody!”
“Susan has done drop in visits a couple times for my wacky pups. She is so good with them and it's clear they enjoy her and are happy in her care. I feel very comfortable while I'm away with my pups in Susan's care.”
About: Hi, I'm Kat, I love all animals but I have an affinity for dogs, especially small ones. I've taken care of cats & dogs for more than 20 years. I've recently lost my baby boy Max (my Shih Tzu) to cancer, we're not ready to get another dog but am ready to help watch your dog and shower him/her with all the love/kisses they want. I'm available to watch your pup within 24hr notice. We don't have a fence yard but am willing and I enjoy walking dogs. We live in a very walkable town with nice wide sidewalks for your pup & I to go explore the neighborhood. I will treat your pet as if it was my own.
“I highly recommend Audrey for any pet sitting needs! She stopped by twice a day to care for my three cats while I went on vacation. I received pictures from her from each drop-in along with an update about how the drop-in went! I felt very comfortable leaving my cats in her hands!”
“Michael came 3 times a day for over a week for an hour at a time. He took time to spend with each of our 3 older dogs individually and sent multiple photos each time we was at our home. He gave in real time updates on food, bathroom breaks and ensured he gave each dog their medication. He brought our trash cans up our driveway, and brought it our mail before we even reached out to ask, and even took a photo of bees getting into our home while we were away in which we were able to prepare for before we returned from our vacation. He was wonderful for us and from the looks of our blink camera taking some videos in real time, the dogs loved him as well!! We will be requesting Michael each time we take a trip as we feel incredibly comfortable with his care.”
About: I have taken care of all different pets from puppies to seniors, big to small, active or cuddly. With some senior care experience or special needs. I am currently working part time and have availability on Tuesdays for walks or cuddle sessions. Boarding available on weekends but can be flexible if needed. We have a fenced in yard or a tie out, whichever you are comfortable with. Have a friendly dog that does go to Daycare and gets along well with others.
About: ** Please contact me to see what city I'm in** I’ve been helping friends and family with pet sitting for over 10 years. Dogs, cats, young, old, mellow, energetic, you name it. I’ve handled feeding routines, daily walks, basic training, and even some light meds. I tend to adapt to each pet’s personality, whether that means playtime in the yard or quiet companionship around the house. After a workplace injury led to a layoff from my tech job, I decided to take some time to travel, visit family & friends across the country, and shift into remote work. Pet sitting fits perfectly into this new chapter of life! I’ve got the flexibility to take it seriously and the calm presence that helps animals feel safe. Most pets warm up to me pretty quickly, and I enjoy their company just as much! **Please contact me to see what city I'm in - My profile may not have updated** Since I’m traveling full-time and working remotely on my own projects, I have a pretty open schedule and can plan my days around the pets I’m caring for. Whether it’s sticking to a feeding routine, getting in a few walks, or just being around to keep them company, I’m usually nearby and available. I’m not rushing out to an office or juggling a bunch of local obligations, so your pets get a lot of attention and care. I treat every home with care and respect. Like a guest who knows the rules… I don’t go into rooms I don’t need to, and I always follow any guidelines or preferences the owner shares. I clean up after myself, stick to the pet’s routine, and do what I can to keep the home safe and comfortable while you're away. That includes things like bringing in packages, taking out the trash, and keeping everything looking lived-in so the place doesn’t appear empty.
About: I’ve had all kinds of pets from the age of 5 and have been pet sitting off and on since I was a teenager. Friends and family have relied on me to love and care for their pets as my own. I would love to meet your furry friend and give you peace of mind that they will be well cared for while you are away. Jake loves to play with other dogs his size and they always have a good time running and playing together. He is indifferent to cats and I would love a fur ball to sit in my lap. I have a lot of experience giving medications to dogs and other pets. I will work with you to give your pet the things they are familiar with at home. Look for lots of photos and videos of your pet having fun while they are with me! I work full time but I am home throughout the day so that they are only alone for a maximum of 2-4 hours. We love to walk and visit the dog park in our spare time I have no commitments outside of work and can provide companionship and playtime with your family member and my Jake. I am more than happy to accommodate any needs your furry friend has and the schedule he or she needs.
About: I have always felt happier around animals! I have had the pleasure of caring for dogs, cats, and rabbits since I was young. In my adult years, I have owned and trained four German Shepherds. I have cared for puppies and older dogs that required medicine. I currently have more time in my schedule to assist with your pet needs now that I am older and my children are young adults. Our pets have been an integral part of our family, and I would like to give the same love to your pets. I am ready to help you.

Toriann H.
“Toriann has watched my two bunnies on countless occasions. I never have to worry about going out of town and leaving them. She sends me updates (with pictures) about how they’re doing, will interact with them, and make sure they have everything they need. She is not like other sitters that come and go super quickly - she will play with them to make sure that they are still being socialized when I am gone! 10000/10 experience!”
