About: I am not currently working so I have all the time in the world to dedicate to the pups! In general I'm quite flexible, I like to fly by the seat of my pants. Within the past 9 years my brother got a Basset Hound, (who has since passed), my parents got a German Shepherd, (who has since passed), and I got a Shepherd/Hound rescue pup. Man so I miss having pup around! I've quickly become the dog sitter because I like dogs more than people! I am very comfortable with big dogs and open to working with smaller dogs. I love taking long walks with the pups. If the dog is willing I love to teach them new things! I have all of the patience in the world for dogs. They are and will always be my number one priority at all times. I will respect and follow any rules or guidelines you have knowing full well how much work goes into training and wouldn't want to cause any set backs. I'm a stay at home mom of a 5 year boy. He goes everywhere with me and is also amazing with dogs. So if your dog just needs some company or a nice walk, I'm your girl! I care for any pet as if it were my own. Any specific directions given to me will be followed to a "T". I know how important pets are and I treat them as such.


“Evelyn was fantastic! At the meet and greet she showed up with pen and paper taking notes to make sure she didn’t miss anything important, which I loved since my dogs have a lot of instructions. She came on a walk with us on their regular route to see how they act and what they’re used to. I am very pleased to continue working with Evelyn in the future!”


“Meg is just wonderful! During our meet and greet, it was very clear that she has a way with animals. She took care of our 5 cats and even happily accommodated their different food preferences. Everything she did (rinsing out food cans, for example) was done thoughtfully. I would recommend Meg without reservation!”


“Brielle is an absolute delight! She took such wonderful care of my cats, one of which is special needs, while I was away. Brielle is communicative, thorough, and my animals, even my fussy dog, all took to her immediately! I felt so comfortable leaving my fur babies in her care and highly recommend her!”


“Very friendly and great with our kitties! Let me know when she was heading over a followed up with several pictures, as well as what she did. Would hire again!!”



“Juliana did a great job with our large dog and 2 kittens. She was timely, thorough, asked any clarifying questions and clearly took excellent care of them. We will use her again in the future !”


“Maria is fantastic to work with. My bunny is very comfortable with her. She communicates well and responds promptly. Highly recommend!”


“Thank you so much Emily !!! It was last minute but she made it work !”


About: I have loved dogs since I was a young child chasing Oscar at my grandparents' farm. To this day, if I see a dog I have to introduce myself. I have cared for dogs from six week old puppies to elder dogs in their final days. I also have experience with cats, having lived with four of them at one time. I am retired but fit and healthy. I am available most days and will stay with you pets overnight as well. I hope to turn pet care into a 25-30 hour/week job. I am unable to bring a pet into my home. For pet care in your home, I would closely follow your instructions. I do believe that play time and outdoor time are critical for pets fit for such activities. I want you to be very happy with my care and to request me again!


“kania is soooo good. I was anxious because it was my first time leaving Maxx alone, she followed all the introductions Maxx loved her. I will love to book her again.”


“Kaelin made time to meet us and my Loki before starting drop ins. She was delightful and I (and my pup) felt very comfortable with her immediately. Although the weather was sleeting rain, she played frisbee with my high energy border collie for the majority of her time with him each day and left lovely little check in messages and photos.”


About: I genuinely treat every pet like family. What sets me apart from other sitters is not just my love for animals, but my attention to detail, calm demeanor, and experience with pets at all life stages; from energetic puppies to senior pets who need a little extra TLC Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I plan my days around your pet’s needs. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday playtime, or evening cuddles, I’m consistent and reliable. I keep a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets the time, attention, and routine they’re used to, especially during drop-ins or overnight care. If your pet has a strict feeding or medication schedule, I always stick to it. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. In my home, pets get a calm, clean space with plenty of love and supervision. I pet-proof areas as needed and follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible to reduce stress. In your home, I respect your space like it’s my own. I follow all instructions carefully; from feeding to playtime, potty routines, and any house rules your pet is used to. I’m also mindful of securing doors, leashes, and gates so your furry friend stays safe. I always keep you updated with photos and notes, so you know your pet is happy and cared for.

“Celeste was amazing! She was punctual and we received a notification each time she arrived at the house and when she left. She also sent us a few photos of Laila while visiting! We felt so comfortable that Laila was being very well cared for in our absence. Highly recommend Celeste.”


About: I have been sitting for years and currently have two dogs of my own. Our older dog had ear cancer so I am familiar with how to care for sick dogs and how to give medicine and the treatments of such nature. I currently work during the work week so I am free most nights during the week week do stop ins and then have much more open availability on the weekends! I am very attentive to the needs set out by the parents and make sure I am following instructions! I love taking the pets and walks as it’s good for both me and them! I would love to play and also can be down for a good cuddle as well.

“Kaylene was wonderful and would recommend her to care for anyone’s furkids. You can feel her genuine love for animals and the care she provides reflects it. Thank you so much for taking care of Simba and Nala!”


About: I’ve always had pets in my house growing up. My friends and family always relied on me to care for them. To make sure they are well fed, walked, and overall happy! I work a few part-time jobs but your pet is my main priority in between shifts! Every week is different but typically I am available to care for the pets in the morning, afternoon, and night. I will follow however your dog is trained and what works for your pets. Whatever you feel most comfortable with I’ll make sure I follow!

“Danielle did an amazing job! Each day she showed up in time and sent us Ellie’s report and photos. It made us feel so good knowing that our pup was in such capable hands! We could not be more pleased! And grateful! Highly recommend!!”
