“Kailie was awesome! The dogs treated her as their own. She paid attention to all the details we had for her and kept us posted with the updates and pictures while we were gone. We'll have her always”


“Jade was a perfect house/pet sitter. She watched my dog and two cats in a last minute request and was very helpful and nice. She was also great at communicating and I appreciated all the picture updates.”


“It is challenging to leave our anxious dog when we go away. Joyce made it so much easier! She is very thoughtful and went above and beyond to understand our dog and give her lots of attention. She sent us the sweetest daily updates. Also, it was very clear when we got home that she had taken very good care of our house. Joyce is now on our short list of favorite dog sitters. We will have her dog/house sit again without question.”


“Kate was a wonderful dog and house sitter! Our two dogs were better off then when we left as Kate did some training with them. They took lots of walks and seemed very happy and healthy. The house was great as well.”


“Kaeleen watched our dog Sadie and cat Mac for a week. She took great care of them. She provided updates and sent pictures. She was respectful to our home. I would recommend her for anyone looking for a great in-house sitter!”


“Kayla is a friendly, responsible, hardworking pet sitter and a genuine lover of animals. I would 100% book her again. She had vast experience with all sorts of animals, and I trusted her completely with my pets. I wish everyone was as good as Kayla! Book her, you won’t regret it.”


“Cindy is amazing! 100% would recommend her. Cindy was such a lifesaver for us by watching my dog, Tayto, for a night on short notice while we were visiting Vermont. It was the biggest relief and comfort knowing that Tayto was in such good hands with Cindy. She loved and cared for him so well, and I am so grateful. I wish we lived closer so Cindy could always be our dog sitter! Kind, wonderful, and shared lots of great photos. Thank you, Cindy!”


About: I am mostly interested in hosting cats but if you have a well tempered pup I would be willing to discuss if we would be a good match. I have time before I go to work (from 6 am to 8 am) to check on animals and after I get out at 5:00 pm I am available Monday through Friday. Saturday's I am available after 1 pm and Sunday I have open availability. I love cats and want them to feel most comfortable. Give me a list of their likes and dislikes and I will be sure that we will have a splendid time!


“There aren’t enough good things to say about Danielle! From start to finish she was a super professional, and it’s very clear that she is a true dog lover. My wife is really anxious about leaving our dog with anyone, even family, but from day one with Danielle she was so detail oriented, asked the right questions, and sent so many great updates, that even a nervous dog mom felt 100% confident. Honestly, I think Finley had a better time with Danielle than he usually has with us! Not only was our buddy in great hands, but the house was spotless when we returned. We hope to hire Danielle many times again in the future!”


“Anesa is great. She and Dexter got along famously. We appreciate that she took him on a hike and on playdates with other dogs over the weekend. She also gave us periodic photo updates which were greatly appreciated. We'll definitely rebook the next time we need a sitter!”


About: With experience as a kennel attendant, I have worked with hundreds of different dogs, and am comfortable walking the smallest toy breeds to giant breeds like mastiffs or Great Danes. I have worked with a variety of different personalities and am capable of caring for terminally ill, disabled, or special needs pets! I am currently a college student and mostly spend my time studying if not hanging out with my own pets. I’m available for drop-in visits Monday morning-afternoon, all day Tuesday, Wednesdays and Thursdays after 3, and Fridays until 2 at this time. I am also available Saturdays and Sundays after 4! I care for everyone’s pets as if they’re my own - following their owner’s schedule as closely as possible to ensure their comfort and keep them stress-free! I also like to send owners updates with photos to ease any anxiety about being away from your baby!

About: I have had dogs for all of my life. Through the years I have had a Great Dane, a Doberman, and several mixed-breed dogs. I understand the unique needs of different breeds and am comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Pet care fits seamlessly into my routine as I work from home, managing multiple online jobs. This allows me to be flexible and available throughout the day to give your pet attention, exercise, and any care they need, ensuring they feel comfortable and well-cared for while you're away. I live in a somewhat secluded area, which makes it easy to take dogs outside for walks or playtime, either on-leash or off-leash, depending on their comfort level and training. My home has plenty of space for dogs to play indoors, so they can stay active and entertained no matter the weather. I prioritize a safe, comfortable, and engaging environment for pets, both inside and outside.

“Amazing job. We felt so comfortable having Thomas watch our dog and cats while we were away. We had a very bad experience previously with another dog sitter, and he knew that, and really took the extra steps to make sure we knew our babies would be taken care of. He left the house clean and tidy, sent us lots of photos and updates, and was very communicative. Definitley will be using Thomas again everytime!”


“Kasey house/pet sat my 2 cats and chickens on a holiday weekend and did a great job communicating with me. I appreciated the photo updates and she left the house just as I left it! Definitely will reach out again.”


About: Over 16 years training, walking and exercising high energy dogs. I have extensive experience with working dogs, special needs dogs and have certifications in dog obedience and other disciplines. I am licensed as a public school teacher and fully background checked. Contact me for the best care. Boarding and adventure daycare is my speciality. I have limited housesitting and drop in availability. Dog walking and exercising is my full-time job. I want to provide a concierge service that makes it easiest for you to take your time back and be well. Your wellness is key to your dog being well. My joy for this profession started when I couldn't find a trusted sitter and dog walker for my own animal. I decided to provide that service to others so they wouldn't have the same problem. I give love, attention and exercise to your family member as if they were my own. I am a licensed public school educator who is fully background checked with glowing references that can be provided and contacted.

About: Hello folks, I am an experienced animal caretaker with a background in fostering pets. I have cared for dogs, cats, other domestic pets, and farm animals. My clients, friends and family have entrusted me to watch their animals since I was 12. I believe that direct communication with pet owners will allow me to provide a safe and engaging experience for your animals. I work part-time from 10 am - 2 pm throughout the week. My work days change frequently but I am available outside of these hours for your caretaking needs. I will not be providing services in my home at this time. For pet sitting and walking services, I am available to stay in your home or do daily check ins. My goal is to be an accessible source for your animal while you travel or are at work. I will be available 24/7 via email or text after you book my services. Please provide me with any medical, dietary, or enrichment needs for your animal when you book my services. I always adhere to my clients wishes and will do my best to stick with your pet’s daily routine while in my care. If you have a dog who is friendly, I can provide additional enrichment with my three year old pup Zeus.

About: I have over 15 years of pet sitting experience including but not limited to, feeding, daily exercise, oral medication administration, foster dog, and senior dog experience. I'm currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to play with your pup! I am available most weekends for all your furry friends needs. I typically request a meet and greet so that I can see your pups routine first hand and ensure that we are a great match :)
