“Jessica is fantastic she came for a previsit and met our pup who immediately took a liking to her. The day of her first scheduled visits she allowed our dog to warm up to her at his own pace and was patient and kept me informed. We will be welcoming her back real soon. I highly recommend Jessica.”

“Did a great job!”

“Riley puts me at ease when I have to leave Spade (my 14 yr old Bombay male cat). She keeps me updated with photos and a narrative of what took place. She goes beyond and even cleans any mess he’s created. She is always punctual and attentive to his needs. I will recommend her with a glowing review and hope to book her on my next trip out of town. The best!”

About: I have 4 years of veterinary care experience along with 2 years of pet boarding experience. I own and care for several of my own animals as well! I am currently available for afternoon visits and care on week days. I have full availability on the weekends for any needs! I can also do midday pop in’s depending on location! I have 1 very friendly dog who does amazing with other animals but if your pet isn’t a fan I always have another safe space for them. I unfortunately do not have a fenced in yard therefore your pet will always be leashed for their safety. I will ensure we do lots of walks and playing to get their exercise!

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my diverse experience and deep commitment to providing tailored care for each cat I look after. I have a strong background in caring for cats of all ages, including senior cats who may require special attention and medical care. My experience includes administering medication and ensuring their comfort during their golden years. Additionally, I have a knack for understanding feline behavior, which helps me create a calm and engaging environment that caters to their individual needs. I am also skilled in socializing and training younger cats and kittens, helping them adjust to their new homes and learn good habits. My ability to recognize and respond to their unique personalities allows me to build trust and strengthen our bond, making them feel secure and loved. Furthermore, my passion for plants means I can ensure that any cat-friendly greenery in the home is safe and well-maintained, creating a healthy environment for your furry friend. With my combination of experience, compassion, and specialized skills, I aim to provide the highest level of care and companionship to every cat I sit for. Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine, seamlessly woven into my lifestyle. Each morning begins with feeding my own three cats, ensuring they receive the nutrition they need to start their day. I make it a point to engage with them through playtime and cuddles, which helps strengthen our bond and keeps them happy. Throughout the week, I prioritize regular check-ins and walks for my auntie dogs, making sure they receive the exercise and love they deserve during family gatherings and visits. When I’m pet-sitting, I adjust my schedule to accommodate the specific needs of the pets in my care, whether it's administering medication to senior cats or providing playtime for energetic kittens. I also dedicate time for litter box maintenance and grooming, ensuring a clean and comfortable environment for my feline companions. My love for plants complements my pet care routine, as I often incorporate plant care into my day, creating a harmonious atmosphere for both my pets and my greenery. Overall, pet care is not just an obligation for me; it’s a joyful commitment that enriches my life. Caring for pets in my home and my clients' homes is a thoughtful and personalized process that prioritizes their well-being and comfort. In my home, I provide a safe and loving environment for my own pets, ensuring they have access to fresh food and water, clean litter boxes, and plenty of playtime. I have designated areas for both relaxation and play, allowing pets to feel secure and engaged. When caring for clients' pets, I take the time to familiarize myself with their routines, preferences, and any special needs they may have. I follow feeding schedules meticulously, ensuring that each pet gets the right amount of food at the right times. For cats, I maintain a clean litter box and provide enrichment activities like toys and scratching posts to keep them stimulated. If a pet requires medication, I handle it with care and precision, making sure to follow the owner's instructions closely. In addition to basic care, I prioritize companionship and interaction, spending quality time with the pets through play, grooming, and affection. I also keep the environment safe by ensuring that any plants or items around are pet-friendly. Whether in my home or a client's, my goal is to create a nurturing atmosphere where pets feel loved, secure, and happy, reinforcing their well-being during my care.

About: I’ve taken care of animals since the age of 12 I’ve had neighbors and family recommend me to others and overall enjoy walking and play with all dogs or pets I enjoy walking around and would love to have your animals walk with me. Most animals always enjoy walking and getting out to play. (Plus they get good pets) My yard is a pretty big area there’s a creek right behind the house that they can play in that’s shallow and safe to have them play in. There are many parks that I know of in the area that they could be taken too and be able to run around in.

“Peggy was great! It was my first time leaving my 13 and 15 year old babies, and leaving my house, to someone I don’t know. It was also last minute and they were anxious because they knew I was going away. Peggy allowed me to call her and talk to her, send her written and video instructions, and assured me everything would be okay. She was punctual at every time I asked her to be here. She stayed with them and played with them, which is more than I was expecting. She kept my updated. She turned off the lights like I asked, and left them on for me when I came home. Everything was perfect and made my trip much easier. I’d recommend Peggy if you need a sitter.”

About: My name is Grace, and animals have always been a significant part of my life. I grew up on a farm where I was surrounded by cows, chickens, and sheep, and my mother bred Australian Shepherds, which sparked my passion for animals. I have over a year of experience working in dog grooming and have worked with both cats and dogs of various sizes. I am currently a student at flcc and I don’t have school on Tuesday or Thursday and I am available for weekends so that gives me plenty of time to play and take care of your pets! I take into account all that a client may ask of me I understand that it takes trust to have someone care for your pet like that. A pet is a valued family member and they should be treated as such!

About: Hi everyone! I have been watching dogs for as long as I can remember! I am a family nurse practitioner but am currently on maternity leave with my second daughter. I have a lot of availability and flexibility for pet sitting. I love dogs of any age and size and I love all of their personalities! I have a special dog swimming pool for your dog to utilize if they like water! I know how hard it is to trust someone with your dog, but I will send pictures (if you want) of your dog enjoying their time with me. Please don't worry!! I will make sure to take great care of your dog for you and follow any specific instructions you may have because I understand they are an important part of your family! :) I am on maternity leave so I have plenty of time for pet care right now. I will ensure that your pet is cared for. I care for pets in my home like they are pets of my own. When I am in someone else’s home I show the utmost respect for their space and care for their pet as I would my own.

About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them have grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals l. I’m currently seeking to spend more time outdoors and to spend time with animals so this allows me to accomplish both of those things while being able to get exercise. Being patient and calm while making pets feel comfortable, sending pictures to the client, and letting them know of the extra attention they are getting.

“Haille is so wonderful with our puppy, Charlie! She is great at communicating how Charlie is doing, sending photos and helping to following the puppy training when she checks in on her. We will certainly be booking with her again when we need someone to check-in on our pup!”

“Dan was very attentive to my 3 fur babies. He stopped by to meet my pups prior to the drop in, which was appreciated. Bailey and Ripley took to him right away. Luna, who is usually skittish and takes awhile to warm up to new people, came around after a few minutes. Dan sent updates and pictures after the drop-in and was on time. I will definitely be utilizing his services again. Thank you so much, Dan!”
