About: I have experience with all sizes of dogs and cats and I have plenty of time and energy to spend on your furry family members! I am currently between jobs so I'm happy to stay at your place and give your pet plenty of walks, love, and attention. I can accommodate specific walking and feeding times as well. I cannot host pets in my home because I have pets of my own, but I have house-sat and pet-sat for plenty of friends over the years!

“Kaylee is a cat whisperer! My cat is afraid of everyone but me (and now Kaylee!) She took to her immediately, following her around, asking for pats, and even slept with her! Kaylee did just as good of a job with my 12 yo Aussie, taking him for walks several times a day and showing him great care. I would highly recommend Kaylee and have already asked for her to come back to sit my pets again!”

“Kendall really took great care of our 3 pets(1dog & cats). We had gone out for 5days, she stayed at our home and took amazing care of our pets. She even took the garbage out without us mentioning it on the garbage day. I would highly recommend her without any doubt and will definitely contact her for our future petsitting needs.”

About: I’ve cared for all sorts of animals from horses to hamsters and everything in between. Personally, I’ve had dogs, cats, small mammals, reptiles, and fish. My experience with birds is more limited. However, I do have some experience handling and caring for them via my job as a pet counselor at Petland where I specialized in caring for small mammals and birds and helped pet parents decide on care/products. I was later a kennel technician for Petland. Furthermore, I have experience working with aggressive/anxious dogs. Finally, two of my volunteer experiences involved animals, the first was Casey’s Save Haven horse rescue and the second is Wings and Talons working with ambassador birds of prey! I have class on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. I can drop by between/after class on those days. On Sunday I start volunteering at 1pm and usually don’t get off until 4 or 5, but again I am available before or after that! For more info on my school schedule, just message me. I will permanently update it after I know my 2026 schedule. I cannot do in home care due to the people and pets that I live with, however, I can do any outside care like home visits and dog walking!

About: I have been around dogs my entire life, and as a result bring a wealth of experience that includes a deep understanding of canine behavior and a genuine love for our furry companions. Before he recently passed, I cared for my dog Blue for the last 9 years, and have developed a very effective care approach that prioritizes safety, comfort, and overall well-being. Achieving this required adapting to my dog's unique personality, ensuring that routines are maintained, and accommodating any special needs or preferences that might arise. I cannot wait to bring this same level of attention and care to your pet! I incorporate interactive play, stimulating exercises, and most of all engaging walks to keep the dog both physically and mentally stimulated. Clear communication with pet owners is a priority of mine, providing regular updates and addressing any concerns promptly. I am commitment to creating a stress-free environment to establish trust with your pet. I work remotely full-time, and can commit to drop ins during the week depending on proximity to my home. I can also do house-sittings as needed. I am also available on the weekends! My care approach is built around making sure the pet feels safe and comfortable. Owning a reactive dog myself means I am constantly assessing our surroundings for triggers while also monitoring their attention and interests. This means that your pet's needs will always be top of mind, and their comfort and trust my number one priority.

I truly don’t know what I would do without Kaylee. I plan my trips around her availability - I have complete trust in her to care for my rescue dog. She is proactive in every way and reaches out regularly, even suggesting and offering options through this cold weather to ensure my pipes don’t freeze. She is an amazing person!

Philip is the kindest and most dependable pet sitter! He took excellent care of our Great Dane over a long weekend. From the questions he asked during our first meeting, it was clear that Phil is the kind of sitter who makes a real effort to befriend and understand the needs of every pet he cares for. To anyone who wants to rest assured that their pets are getting all the love and care they deserve while you’re away, my husband and I cannot recommend Phil highly enough.
