“Julie is amazing! Another trip taken knowing our sweet boy was in good hands. A trip with two littles is fun with a touch of hectic but Julie’s wonderful, descriptive updates full of adorable pictures keep me so relieved that our Buzzy (our cute, old man kitty) is all good getting spoiled back home! Our sweet boy needs nightly meds. If you are in need for someone to take care of your sweet baby with any med needs, she’s your girl! Thankful we have her as our trusted sitter!”
About: Having been a lifelong animal enthusiast and pet owner, I bring 15 years of hands-on experience from my involvement with a local animal rescue to my pet care services. I am adept at caring for a diverse array of animals, from neonate kittens to senior cats, as well as dogs, and fish. My skills include administering medications (oral, liquid, insulin injections with blood glucose monitoring), managing feeding tubes, and providing subcutaneous fluids. I am also comfortable with all types of diets, including fresh and raw. As a retired teacher, I am highly organized and detail-oriented, ensuring your pet receives the highest level of care. My aim is to offer you peace of mind while you're away, and I am available to help with household tasks like collecting mail and watering plants. I am open to work right now as I'm currently working part time. I can adjust my schedule based on your needs. Currently no overnights as I am taking care of my parents full-time. Pets will always be safe in your home, I will be sure that doors are secure when I leave and your pets are happy! They will receive lots of love and pets, just like my own. :)
“Ruth was wonderful with our kitties. One is super shy but he went right up to her and demanded cuddles and pets. Thank you for providing so much love to our fur babies and brining in all of our packages! She was great and would definitely recommend her.”
“Donavon is a great sitter! He was very attentive and asked many questions to make sure he had a great understanding. Our pup seemed very comfortable with him. Will be utilizing him again in the future.”
“Trina is a wonderful puppy sitter. Very reliable, even buying treats and toys for our dogs. She also took care of them over Christmas time. I would recommend her to everyone! Kim Matthews”
“Barbara did a great job with our senior cat! She understands the seniors very well. I appreciated her questions and checking in each visit! I’d love to invite her back!”
About: I have had my 2 dogs since they are 8 weeks old. I would be so happy to look after your babies. I have a fenced yard with protection from dogs getting out. I currently work from home more than 3 days a week and can change accordingly. I’m flexible with pick-up and drop-off times. Your babies will have 24/7 care and love with us. I have a fenced yard, a large dog crate, couple dog beds. I have one golden retriever and a Labrador retriever. They are very friendly and playful. We have giant water fountain and toys for dogs.
About: Hi All - I enjoy cats and dogs. I consider myself very reliable and will treat your animal as if it were my own. Everyone has last minute needs and are always in need of someone they can count on for help with their little loved ones. Recently, I found myself in a jam with having to go out of town and not having a reliable cat sitter. With almost pulling my hair out, I realized how important and stressful it is trying to find the right person to watch your baby. I don't want that person to be me. I want to help others. Be that person that you can trust in your home and with your animal. I will not NOT show up, I will text you with updates on how your baby is - what ever you need, I will get for you. I am there for you I work full time until 330 PM during the week but available afterwards, available for weekends & holidays if needed as well. I am Very reliable. I will treat your pet as I would my own. I know the importance of maintaining their regular schedule as if you weren't away. Pets can be sad when their owners are away. I will be sure to do what ever is needed to make them feel comfortable and cared for.
“Hannah took the best care of our two dogs. The updates she sent always made us feel good that the dogs were in her hands. One of our dogs is very anxious and seemed to warm up to her very quickly. We will definitely be booking with her in the future! Thanks Hannah (:”
“Macaire was pleasant to work with, despite some difficulties with contractors working on my house and being in the way when she dropped in. She fulfilled all duties in my cats were great with her. I would hire her again.”
About: I had a dog growing up and always loved walking around with him. He made me get up and be outside everyday and now I just have a general live for pets and the outdoors. I’m currently a full time student and have a part time job. My schedule is kind of weird so I have Wednesday through Monday available to take care of pets. Starting Wednesday after 3:50 and ranging to about anytime Friday-Sunday. The only day I’m not available is Tuesday but depending on your need we might be able to work around that. I have experience with some bigger dogs but mostly with smaller dogs and cats. I would keep all dogs leashed at all times and make sure cats have any food of water they need.
“Kaitlin provided very courteous, conscientious and reliable care for 10 days not only to our cat but also to several patio plants. She was also kind enough to bring in the mail. Upon our return, we found the house just as we left it all living things thriving. We welcomed her to contact us as soon as any question arose, and we really appreciated her communicating with us to seek information whenever needed. It was always clear that she wanted both Franklin to be a comfortable kitty and us to be happy clients. We highly recommend Kaitlin!”
“Rachael did a fantastic job with our dog Ralphie! He is seizure prone and takes medicines strictly, but Rachael and her family made sure to give them correctly and gave him lots of love ❤️ Will definitely use Rachael's services again in the future.”
“I couldn't have asked for a better sitter! From the moment Jennifer walked into our house, our kitties loved her. While we were gone overseas visiting my in-laws, Jennifer still made sure to send pictures and updates of our kitties. It helped my husband and I both so much knowing they were in good hands. I highly recommend her services to anyone!”

Karen I.
“I highly recommend Karen as a pet sitter! Karen is one of the most trustworthy, experienced, and compassionate people I know when it comes to animals. She has spent years working in animal rescue, giving her extensive hands-on experience with a wide variety of pets—including those with medical needs and behavioral challenges. Whether it’s administering medications, monitoring recovery after surgery, or helping a shy or fearful animal come out of their shell, Karen approaches every animal with incredible patience, care, and respect. She truly understands how to make animals feel safe and loved, no matter their background. I’ve seen firsthand how animals respond to her calming presence—she has a natural gift for connecting with pets, especially those who need extra time and understanding. You can absolutely trust that your pets will be cared for as if they were her own. If you’re looking for a sitter who’s not only reliable and responsible but also deeply knowledgeable and kind-hearted, Karen is the one. Book her with confidence!”
