“Cori and Jamie watched our two cats and two dogs for a week while we went on vacation and we couldn’t have been happier with how well our fur-babies were taken care of! Both of our dogs have extremely high anxiety and Cori and Jamie helped ease both their nerves and ours with lots of updates and pics throughout the week. Definitely recommend and would love to book with them again!”


“Kendra always does such a great job with our pets! This is our second time booking with her and definitely not our last. We are so happy to have someone who can watch our babies when we have to go away. Thanks again Kendra!! :)”


“Kristi was so great with our 2 little guys. She went out of her way to come to our house for a meet-and-greet and then came back another time to go over procedures, feeding, etc. It’s very hard to leave your home and pups in the care of a stranger, but Kristi put us at ease right away and didn’t feel like a stranger at all. She provided lots of updates and we were able to enjoy attending our nephew’s wedding without having to worry at all!”

Thank-you, Diana.”


About: I am very intuitive to what animals needs are. I’m patient and pets safety is my top priority! Comforting animals is a blessing that I can’t get enough of! My hours are a bit flexible but I am mainly have a lot of free time on Mondays & Fridays from 2-7. Saturdays and Sundays I am completely available. First off, I always read the directions multiple times. Make sure their food and leashes are easy to find. Then I always check the backyard before letting a dog out. I want to be sure there are no gaps in the fences or any other large wildlife they may want to chase. If in case of emergency, I would love to know what veterinary practice is used and emergency contacts if I’m not able to make direct contact.

About: I have been around animals my whole life. My range of experience goes from new born puppies and up. I have been dog sitting for my neighbor and some family friends for about 2 years now. I work 2 overnights a week at my job Sunday night and Tuesday night but would still be able to help out at night before going in and in the morning after I get out. I can make any accommodations for any of your animals needs whether that’s needing to only go out on a leash or following specific training plans.

“Nicholas was a great sitter! He followed our complicated instructions to a T and made sure to give the dogs lots of exercise. He shared plenty of updates as well so we were never worried about the health and happiness of our pups.”


“Riley is super responsive and great to work with! He house sat for us and our two dogs and did a wonderful job. We already have him booked for another job soon and will definitely be using him in the future as he is trustworthy and dependable and took good care of our pups!”


“Jason was communicative and worked hard to get our shy/skittish dog to warm up to him. By the end of the weekend both Nova and Frankie were big fans. He also left the apartment very tidy, dishes clean and garbage taken out. Very classy. I would highly recommend.”


About: have extensive experience in pet care, having had many pets over the years. My journey includes rescuing, fostering, and rehoming animals, which has allowed me to develop a deep understanding of animal behavior and care needs. Throughout my experience, I've worked alongside trainers, learning valuable skills to help animals thrive. I pride myself on my patience, compassion, and unwavering love for animals, which I believe are essential qualities for providing the best care possible. My hands-on experience with a variety of pets has given me the ability to assess individual needs and provide the right support to ensure their health, happiness, and well-being. While I work full-time in an office Monday through Friday, my love and commitment to animals are a central part of my daily routine. I make sure to devote my evenings and weekends to providing the care and attention that animals deserve. My special bond with animals allows me to connect with them on a deeper level, ensuring they receive the emotional and physical support they need. I understand how important pets are to their owners, and I treat each pet with the utmost care, creating a safe, loving environment where they can thrive. Whether it’s through walks, playtime, or simply being present, I appreciate the opportunity to spend my free time helping animals feel loved and secure. I have years of experience offering in-home pet care, which allows me to create a safe and comfortable environment for each pet in the comfort of their own home. As someone who lives downtown, I’m well-positioned to serve professionals who need reliable care for their pets while they’re away. Although I’m unable to care for animals in my own space, I pride myself on being a trusted, dependable option for those in need.

About: I have helped take care of the pets in my family since I was little! I love the distinct personalities and quirks that different animals have. Spending time with animals is good for the soul and I would love to help take care of them in my free time! I am currently working part time, and need to be in Oswego on Wednesdays and Fridays until 4. I particularly enjoy going for walks on these days to move after a drive. I am free the rest of the week and available on weekends! I follow the directions given to me for petcare, and make sure animals get plenty of attention and play time while their owners are gone while being respectful to their space.
