“Makenzie dropped in to check on our cats while we were gone on vacation. She did a great job! She sent us pictures of them and made sure they had everything they needed while we were away. I would not hesitate to have her take care of any of our animals in the future!”
“Jensen took wonderful care of Honey and sent many pictures every day. I never had to doubt that Honey was in great hands! I will be using her and her mothers services again in the future for sure!”
“This was my first time booking with Kiley and she exceeded my expectations. She was hired for a drop in visit but not only showed up on time, but stayed longer than the scheduled 30 mins to make sure my dogs were comfortable. Two out of my three puppers are typically shy around new people, but Kiley was patient and gentle with them. I would absolutely use her again and highly recommend her as a thoughtful and reliable sitter.”
About: I've had all sorts of pets growing up. I do have medical training and can handle difficult situations. I currently have two dogs that are rescues and a cat that was abandoned at one day old that I hand raised. My younger dog has an autoimmune disease so I am well practiced on giving medications. Thank you. I can schedule my own hours at my job so I'm pretty flexible on when I can be available. I am available weekends usually with no problems. I am unable to bring animals to my home due to renting. I am able to house sit or walk dogs only at this time.
“Makayla is always very responsive and has been flexible with me when times have changed. She’s wonderful about sending Biden’s or photos to let me see Fiadh is being loved while I’m away. Thank you 🙏”
About: I grew up feeding and caring for strays. I've had several "fur babies" since 1987 and have done part time pet sitting professionally since 2006. I am very flexible with scheduling but would prefer reliability in scheduling of clients on my calendar, since I maintain a regular part time job. I would be more than excited to come and care for your fur babies. I've been Mom to an elderly blind dog and am currently Mom of two spoiled felines. I don't charge extra for unconditional love.
“Olivia checked in on our cat while we were out of town. We appreciated the updates and photos and felt like our cat was well taken care of. Olivia was friendly and quick to respond to any messages. I would highly recommend Olivia for any pet sitting needs and will absolutely be rebooking with her when we need a cat sitter again!”
“Maria was flexible and communicated quickly. Eevee (our fur baby) loved her and did great, we don't trust many people with her, but I would trust Maria anytime and we will definitely use her again. She was so great with Eevee, and sent detailed messages and pictures back with her. Can't say enough good things! 💜💜💜”
“Natalie did an amazing job in taking care of my cat. She visited him multiple times so he wouldn't feel lonely, and she went beyond my expectations and was responsible for taking care of him. I'm so glad that I found her.”
About: First and foremost, I love animals, and I mean all animals. Anything from frogs to dogs, they’re gettin some love from me. I am super flexible in my availability. I will treat your pets like family, whether that’s some extra cuddles or a run for a pup cup. I’m good with all animals, whether they’re shy or bouncing off the walls, I can adapt and tailor to any animals needs. I am a trustworthy individual, and will provide you with pictures and gps tracked walks if requested. Thank you for considering me to take care of your family! I work as an on call employee for Moore Water and Air. On average I work about 3 or 4 hours a day, Monday-Saturday. I am off on Sunday. I am consistently available from 6:00 am - 3:00 pm during the week. I consistently will be unavailable for 3-4 hours between 3:00 pm and 9:00 pm. If any care would need done after 8:00 pm, I would absolutely be available for that after my shift. I treat any animal in my care as if they were a member of my own family. My animals are very nice and well trained, they interact well with other animals but can be kept separate if need be. As far as care in your home is concerned, I will treat your house as if I’m in my grandmothers. I am used to being in peoples homes for my work and I always treat anyone’s property with the utmost care and respect.
“Searra was excellent. She took great care if our cats while we were away for 2 weeks. She kept me updated and even took care of the house when the cats made a mess and when the weather shifted. We got pictures and updates every day and she was very responsive. We would definitely recommend her to anyone.”

Cheryl L.
“Hi I'm Brennan S. Cheryl is a co-worker and our pet-sitter confidant. She has been watching our animals for the past 4 years for when we go on vacation or have an emergency. My wife is a certified cat breeder (Maine coons) so we don't just let anyone watch our animals because if anything were to happen, we would be out a lot of money. The main thing that we love about Cheryl is how attentive she is with her care. She just doesn't show up to feed and water them. She sticks around and takes time to play with them and attends to all of their needs. I recall one time, we had just had a litter 2 weeks before vacation. While she was taking care of them she noticed that the momma cat wasn't allowing the babies to feed for very long. So Cheryl went to the store and got formula and individually fed the 5 baby kittens. We strongly recommend her to anyone that is in need a caregiver for their fur babies. You will not be disappointed!”

Sherry R.
“We live next door to Sherry R and know her quite well. She loves our Sheltie and enjoys taking him on a walk around the neighborhood just for her enjoyment of being with him. When I am outside at the same time as Sherry our dog really wants to run to her and enjoys the attention she gives. On two occasions we needed to be away from home, first for a long weekend and second for a two week trip to visit family in another country. We left our Sheltie in her care both times and were pleased with the care he received. We trusted her with the key to our house so our dog could stay in his own home (he is shy and does not do well in a kennel situation). Instructions were left detailing his daily routine of food, water, medication, and snacks which she carefully followed. It is so nice to come home following a time Sherry has cared for him and we are greeted by happy dog.”
