“Susanna and her husband are the epitome of great pet sitters. We left very last minute for a family emergency and they both took on the job and did great at it also. Going above and beyond to make sure my house was cared for while we were gone when that wasn’t part of the job description. Definitely rebooking with her for our next family vacation. Thank you guys!”

“Emily is great! She was very attentive with our cats and they warmed up to her quickly. She loves animals and took great care of them while we were out of town. We def noticed a difference when we came home vs leaving them alone or just having a neighbor check on them. Would def recommend Emily and book her again!”


About: I have house sit for a couple people, one recently before I came to college was an older dog and a cat. Cleaned all messes and made sure pets were always fed and walked. Back home, I have 4 cats and 1 dog. I love all pets and treat all like my own, I grew up with many cats and dogs. I just want to help out people who don’t always have enough time or need some help. Thank you. I am currently working a work study at CCC from 2pm-6pm the latest during the week. I am free on the most weekends. I play basketball for CCC so sometimes we have games, I would always let you know before hand if I can’t come and refund you. I have house sat before for one of my mom’s friends and she left me specific instructions because they were on diets and I completed them with no problems. Cleaned litter boxes, went for walks, they were gone on a cruise so it was a few days of house sitting. That’s where I really found this love for helping others take care of their pets and watch the house.
About: I have dogs of my own ranging from a senior dog all the way down to a puppy. For over a year I’ve had to care for my five-year-old German Shepherd. He is administered medication daily. My Yorkie is 10 years old and our chocolate lab is almost 2. We have inside and outside cats and also have a bunny. They are all my babies. I’m currently seeking to be a full-time caregiver for pets. I am available during the week and on weekends. I am flexible and can travel to you. I have a Fence yard and three friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. If you prefer a crate, we can provide those. I am flexible and able to travel to your home or visits during the day.

About: I have been taking care of pets for 40 years. I have experience with both large and small breeds. I am patient and realize that each pet has it's own personality and needs. I also sit for dogs on deployment which is a pet sitting service for military pets in need while their parents are deployed. I absolutely enjoy being around pets and that shows in my interaction with them, I talk to them and play with them so they are not only getting the attention they need but also using up the extra energy they may have. I will take care of your pet as if it was my own because I realize that they are an integral part of your families and are like children. I work from home so I can be at your pets disposal at all times. I alternate every few hrs of playtime to a rest time so pets aren’t overly stimulated I have a fenced in yard so I allow them to just run off leash and interact with each other or with my two dogs .

About: I adore dogs. I’ve had dogs my entire life and have house broken puppies and taken care of senior dogs and all ages in between. I know how to give medication to dogs, both oral and injections. I love playing with dogs and taking them outside to run around! I used to volunteer at the Humane Society and took care of the dogs there. I also fostered dogs until they could be placed in a good home. I have a part time job with flexible hours so I’m free a lot. I can usually take a new pet sitting job on one day notice. I’ll take very good care of your fur babies! I will feed them, take them out for walks and potty breaks, give treats as allowed and play with them as much as they want. If they let me I’ll snuggle with them too! I also take care of cats and I’ll feed them, scoop litter boxes, give treats as allowed, play with them and snuggle if they let me. I also have a lot of experience with smaller animals like rabbits, hamsters, gerbils, Guinea pigs, and fancy rats! I can feed them, clean their cages and play with them if it’s ok with the owner. I have experience giving oral medication and injections to smaller animals. I can take care of birds and fish as well. I will give your babies loads of attention and affection! We will have fun together! If I’m house sitting I’ll be glad to water plants and bring your mail in if you want. I’ll take pictures of your fur babies every day and send them to you, whether I’m there for a drop in visit or house sitting.
