“Where do I even begin?! Mandi was an exceptional sitter and provided such a source of comfort while we were away, despite several “hiccups.” Our greyhound Ziggy got into a large bag of pill pockets which made him really sick. At one point, he became so irritable and blocked Mandi from getting back inside the house! But she remained so patient with him and tried lots of solutions until finally he calmed down. She never once made us feel bad and was so willing to help. Ziggy had several accidents in the house due to his upset stomach and anxiety from fireworks, and Mandi cleaned everything up with no complaint. She even made a special trip to the vet to pick up meds for him, and prepared him a bland diet of cooked chicken and rice! Last but not least - we have the worst luck - our refrigerator died and Mandi cleaned out as much of the spoiled food as she could. This could have been the worse vacation considering everything but Mandi was a true professional and helped us relax without having to worry too much about Ziggy’s care. We will definitely be reaching out in the future (if we haven’t scared her off lol!).”


“Rebecca was amazing! She was flexible with a short notice change and it was much appreciated! Dependable and right on time! I loved the feedback and pictures! Will definitely book with her again!! Thank you so much, Rebecca! 🌟”



“Susan was fantastic! All of her updates for Charolette were thorough and made me feel at ease that my pup was doing good while I was gone. Would highly recommend Susan as a sitter for anyone’s dogs!”


“Patten was a God send, since I had to pull last minute shifts with the wife being away for work. Daisy took to her so well and she really made sure to keep Daisy company and not just feed her take her out and leave for the day. She truly cared enough to play with Daisy and make sure that she ate all her food before she would take her out. Again cannot be more grateful how helpful and caring she was to Daisy.”


About: As a work-from-home father, my flexible schedule accommodates needy pups or cats requiring frequent visits or overnight care. I currently have 2 small dogs and am comfortable with dogs of all sizes. If you live in this area, I'm here for you! I also run (slowly) so if you have a dog that wants to run off energy for a few miles, I'm in! I work from home with minimal meetings (about 5 hours/week.) so I can make frequent visits during the day or even take my computer over to your place if you have good wi-fi! I have a fenced-in backyard of about 3/4 an acre. My two small dogs are friendly and we are glad to introduce them if this interests you and your dog. Our dogs have free run of the house and sleep on the bed.

About: Hello! I am an avid pet lover, having owned two dogs and a cat. I have experience with anxious and senile pets, as well as walking cats. I am also a quick learner for any other needs, so just let me know pet-specific needs! I love to cook elevated pet meals enriched with beef, fresh veggies, fish oil, etc and also am a strong supporter of animal enrichment such as treat puzzles and learning new tricks! If your pet needs to be the only pet, let me know and I can accommodate for you. I work from Monday to Thursday, and I have the rest of the time with no other commitments. As this is my only obligation, I have the time to give my full attention to your pet! Before booking, I would love to chat with you to make sure this is a good match! Getting to know you and your pet can help ensure a successful trip for your pet. I would love to know details such as your pets’ personality, likes/dislikes, fears, and anything else you deem important. I am located walking distance to a vet as well as Zonolite Park. We can go for long walks there or doggy play dates with a close neighbors’ dog if you would like! I have many years’ experience babysitting, so understand this dynamic well. My goal is to help everyone feel comfortable and priority is your pet’s wellbeing and happiness. I am excited to meet you and your pet!

“She has pet sat for us several times and every time she has gone above and beyond. This past trip we were gone internationally and never had one concern because I knew Abigail had it under control!!”


“Shaynna is absolutely amazing! She came to meet the cats and talk about their routine a week before we left for vacation. We were out of town for 10 days, and never worried about our cats. We received daily reports and pictures. Shaynna will be hired again if we go out of town. We highly recommend her!”


About: I’ve taken care animals for as long as I can remember. I’ve been animal sitting and an animal shelter worker for 4 years. My clients rely on me to walk, feed, bathe, medicate, and even take them to the vet if necessary. I have experience with senior animals that have specific needs and I’m also certified in training Service Dog and Therapy dog which give me some training experience. I have a full time job. My schedule is 9-6, 5 days a week with an hour lunch. On my days off I do as much with the animals as I can. I follow the instructions from the owner to the T. If I have any questions on concerns I contact the owner as soon as possible

About: I’ve been working with dogs for three years and I truly love what I do. Please note that I cannot provide cat care as I am allergic! I’m currently part of the team at Good Dog Paws, a facility that has been voted Best Pet Training in the Tri-State area for 2023, 2024, and 2025 — and I’m incredibly proud to be a part of such a trusted and respected organization. At Good Dog Paws, I handle a wide range of responsibilities that have helped me become confident in working with all types of dogs. I bathe dogs, manage feeding routines, administer medications (including oral and topical treatments), and closely supervise group play to ensure every dog stays safe and happy. I’ve learned to read body language, manage group dynamics, and handle unexpected situations calmly and professionally. In addition to my work at Good Dog Paws, I’ve also volunteered at the Washington County Humane Society as a dog walker. That experience helped me become more comfortable with dogs who may be shy, nervous, or still learning basic manners, and I’ve developed a gentle, patient approach to building trust with animals who need a little extra love. I’ve also provided pet sitting and house sitting services for both family and my boss. These experiences have taught me how important it is to follow routines closely, keep pets comfortable in their own home, and maintain regular communication with pet parents while they’re away. Whether I’m taking care of a senior dog with special needs or entertaining an energetic pup with tons of personality, I take pride in offering reliable, compassionate care. Your pet’s safety and happiness are always my top priorities. I currently work part time so I have plenty of time for pet care in my schedule! Please reference my calendar and message me as needed for availability! I plan to keep your loved ones safe through supervision and attentive care. Through my years of experience caring for animals, I will give them the best quality of life as possible!

“Definitely appreciated knowing Jenna was stopping in to check on my babies. >^.^< They’re not happy with strangers, but Jenna even got Charlotte to socialize a bit the one day!”


About: I have had the honor of having dogs my entire life. Recently, helped my daughter potty training her last to rescue puppies. They have become protectors of my grandchildren. I'm currently enjoying my summer break and would love to offer my services for walks during the early mornings and evenings. On cooler days, I’m also available for midday walks. Additionally, if you need overnight care, I can provide that service in your home upon request. Currently, I do not have pets in my home, as I do not have a fenced yard that would allow them to safely play and enjoy outdoor activities.

About: I love spending time with animals every day! I bring fun, care, and belly rubs to every visit. Your pup’s happiness is my priority. 🌿 I’m available weekdays from 12 to 8pm and weekends 10 AM to 9PM. Flexible with last-minute requests—just let me know! changes lot too. thank (: I care for pets safely in their home, follow all instructions, maintain routines, secure doors, and provide updates to keep owners confident and pets comfortable.

About: My wife Jessie and I have been around dogs all our lives. You can trust and rely on us to make sure your dog feels safe, secure, and at home while you are away. We take care of your pets as if they are our own! Unlike kennels and certain doggy daycares, we do not utilize crates or cages. We provide them with extra attention to make them feel at home and relaxed while you are away. This is especially important for dogs with separation anxiety. Being left in kennels or crates all day can leave your dog with heightened anxiety and traumatic stress. When you bring your dog to us you can be assured that we will make them feel at home and treat them as a part of our family while they are here. We will not crate your dogs and leave them like some doggy daycares and kennels, unless you request that they are crated. We will give your dogs the extra attention they need while you are away. I work different days throughout each week, but my wife Jessie is home full-time with the dogs and our kids. So one of us will always be here with them the majority of the time. We pay extra attention to your dogs so they feel at home. Feed them regularly as specified, as well as taking them outside to get exercise at least a few times a day.

She’s always been eager to help us out when we need it, usually for occasions when we are out of town for a day and she comes over to feed/walk our dogs while we aren’t home. The dogs are always excited to see her when she comes over and you can tell she feels the same.”

We could not be happier with anyone else taking care of our furbabies!!”
