“Hannah was amazing! She is extremely friendly and knowledgeable. My pup is paralyzed in the hind in and needs to be expressed and it’s really hard to find someone who is comfortable with him and who I feel comfortable leaving my pup with! From the first meet and greet I knew I would be able to have a peace of mind having her watch my dogs. She was very prompt and on time, communicated great, provided updates throughout the day, and my dogs loved her!! Would definitely book again and would recommend!!”
“Morgan really is a kitty whisperer☺️our lil’ guy just fell in love with her which made us feel so at ease. Thank you again Morgan I will definitely use you again and again!! 10 out of 10!! Thank you Suzy M😊”
“We ended up needing to book with Kasidy at the last minute, but found her to be very responsive and a great housesitter for our two dogs! We had been nervous about leaving our dogs while being gone for five days as they are anxious and wary of strangers. But they warmed up to Kasidy quickly due to her calm, relaxed presence and (and ball throwing :). She paid close attention to the instructions left for our dog with Addison’s disease, and texted me with updates on her status. Kasidy is a responsible and reliable pet sitter and we (and our dogs) hope to use her again in the future!”
“We really appreciated Katelyn’s stay in our home to care for our two new kittens for the weekend. She sent us updates and the kittens were safe and sound when we returned. She even fed our fish. We would love to book her help again!”
“Elizabeth was so kind and thoughtful! She cared for my dog and cats AND watched over my home. ❤️ I came home to flowers at my front door! Elizabeth took my dog on daily walks and sent me pictures of her. She even brought my delivered groceries in for me (which I totally forgot about - thank you Elizabeth)! ❤️🙏 she met with me before the booking to meet my dog and see the home and where things were. I’m so blessed and grateful that she was available and that we met!”
“This was the longest trip we have taken, and been away from our dogs. Shelly did a great job, and when she had other things she needed to do, she had her daughter help out, which I believe worked out great! The dogs were very happy to see us return, but I feel they were taken very well care of, and we would definitely ask Shelley to come back. Thank you, Shelly!”
“Our puppy is 9 months old and we were having a hard time leaving him, but Sharon put our mind at ease from our initial meet and greet until we picked him up. She is the best combination of being a professional who obviously has many years of experience, but also a dog owner and lover. Our puppy took to her right away and it was clear in the daily communication and photos that he was well cared for and enjoying his time. I couldn’t give a higher recommendation!”
About: I’ve grown up taking care of dogs, fish, and especially cats! I have training from the SPCA on dog walking, cat care, and some skill/behavioral training for both cats and dogs. I have 3 years of fish keeping experience. I currently have my own cat (he’s orange!) and I am fostering a mother and her kitten for the time being. I am willing to help clean around the house as well! I have indoor/outdoor plants and I can take care of your plants while you are away - I have a green thumb :) I’ve helped friends and clients with farm animals, including feeding and cleaning their spaces. If directed I can help with other farm projects. I am looking to take on as many hours as possible! I am currently in college, but only have classes Monday and Wednesday and can work around my school schedule. I am unable to bring pets home due to having my own cat and living in an apartment with a single pet deposit! But I am just fine coming to you! I offer dog walking, some behavioral training while pet sitting/walking, in home pet sitting, and I can do small cleaning projects for a minimal extra charge. I am gentle with the animals and can do grooming such as brushing and can try nail clipping if your pets allow it!
“Isabel was amazing! She took great care of my two cats and dog and was super responsive. We had some key trouble early on and she showed up early/was very patient and made it work. She even vacuumed up the apartment before I got back! Will definitely be booking her again :)”
About: I have been watching both dogs and cats for many years. I have been asked to dog and cat sit since I was 12 and have accumulated all kinds of dogs over the years. I am capable of handling and walking large dogs, as I am 5'11 and 16o lbs. My own family's dogs are not the best walkers, but we still get it done. I also have experience with lots of cats and would definitely consider myself a cat-lover. I have sat many cats including my neighbors' , grandmothers', friends', and other family. I love getting to know new cats and getting them to trust me. I am currently on break from school and have open availability to stop by or house sit in the area. I am willing to wake up early or stop by late. Our dogs at home walked down the driveway into a fenced off yard where they play and use the restroom, so I am capable of taking the extra steps for your dogs. As for our cats, both are indoor-outdoor and are fed inside; one friendly, and one independent. I love all kinds of cats and will do my best to make them comfortable.
About: I grew up taking care of the animals on my mom's hobby farms and as a kid I did both 4-H and FFA which gave me experience with many types of animals. I especially love dogs and I have one of my own. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to care for their pets and I am open to unique requests such as snakes and lizards. I have apart-time job and I am attending classes but I am able to care for animals morning and night and the occasional afternoon check in. Depending on the service I am able to find time in my schedule to care for your pet. I keep dogs leashed when needed, maintain a normal feeding schedule for comfort, and give them ample outdoor time in the day. I am familiar with behavior patterns for a number of animals and understand their need for normalcy even when their owner is gone.
About: Hello! I’ve always been an animal lover. I grew up riding horses & as an only child my pets were my best friends. As I’ve grown into an adult, the friends I’ve made usually come with bonus friends (their pets). I’ve had friends/roommates that are pet professionals (groomers/vet techs) & I’ve picked up a lot of knowledge along the way. I’ve been lucky enough to be welcomed into my furry friends homes to care for them as their people are away, feeling comfortable with their sitter. I like to do a meet and greet to get to know your loved one and follow any instructions to the letter. Young to advanced age, trust they will be well cared for as if they were my own. My schedule is currently open, not including any pending appointments. I’m very flexible with reliable transportation and can meet your needs morning afternoon or night. I prefer to care for your pet in their own home where they are most comfortable. They have my full attention when you are away. My husband is loved by every animal he meets and is the best teammate.
About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of Animals! I have lots of references. I take very good care of your house/pets while you’re gone!! I clean too I currently work as a nail tech during the day, but I have plenty of time to take care of your pets. I love Dogs Oh have a fenced yard! One dog, that loves all the other dogs I’ve brought hm. Can stay at your house too! I love animals
“Angie was great! Our dog, Maggie, was well-cared for and all of her ever-flying German Shepherd fur was vacuumed up, as well. Thank you, Angie, for leaving on the lights to welcome us home after our late flight. Merry Christmas!”
“Justine is great! She came to meet Aster and instead of shying away from his barking she immoderately got him into training mode and more calm. I could tell Justine knows her way around animals and truly loves them. Aster was a happy boy when we came back from being away. Definitely using her in the future!”
“Katie is absolutely fantastic and I would highly recommend her if you want peace of mind knowing that your pet and your home are safe and secure. Thank you once again for being so good to the crew and we will see again soon.”

Bailey A.
“Bailey is an amazing person and a fabulous pet sitter. We have known her for 6 or 7 years, since she became friends with our son in High School. Small, sweet, quiet - those are the first impressions of Bailey. Turns out she's ambitious, strong and strong minded with a great sense of humor! After High School she was headed to army boot camp - I remember thinking how is she going to accomplish that? She came out laughing - saying she'd learned several words she didn't know she needed to know. Made me laugh. We have hired several of our kid's friends to pet sit and take care of the garden. Bailey is one of the few who actually did what we asked without skipping corners here and there. She even tackled some garden digging (just for fun!) on a large project we were working on. Our animals love her, our plants love her, and we love her. She is trustworthy, kind, gracious and responsible. You will be glad you hired her.”

Serena C.
“I know that Serena is an amazing care giver of pets. She understands animals and is not afraid of hard work. She is gentle and loving but firm with them. I wholeheartedly trust her with the care of all of my own pets: dogs, cats and horses. She has been surrounded by pets and livestock all of her life and it shows in her ability to problem solve, "control" and understand animals. Her experience raising a variety of livestock through the 4-H program instills confidence that she can without doubt care for animals with confidence and consistency. Serena lives her life with integrity and honesty. I highly recommend Serena Connely as a pet sitter and dog walker without any reservation. Hiring Serena would be a very wise investment.”
Kathy M.
“Kathy was great. Punctual and our dogs loved her. She was caring and sent pictures and updates without being asked . Will definitely use her again.”
Haley C.
“Haley is a responsible animal caregiver. She cares for your pets as if they were her own. I worked as a veterinary technician and trusted Haley with the care of my fur babies while I was out of town. She sends pictures and updates you daily on your pets status. She paid close attention to my pets behavior and reported it to me. I highly recommend her for the supervision of your pets. She is very thoughtful and trusting.”
Rebekah B.
“Becky takes great care of our two Labradors and has been doing so for over 6 years. We've had her pet sir for long and short periods -as little as one night to as many as 21 nights. She follows instructions for feeding, supplements ands treats, exercises the dogs and spends time with them. She stays overnight at our home and always leaves it cleaner than when we left. She also waters the outdoor plants that are not on the irrigation system. She is very caring and conscientious! Becky send pictures and updates by text, which is appreciated when we're missing our pups. Selfishly, I hesitated to recommend her because she may get too busy to watch our pets and home, but of course that wouldn't be fair to her - our wonderful pet sitter!”

Kasidy was great ! She was very accommodating. Our dog has separation anxiety but she was so relaxed and calm whenever Kasidy was here and when she saw us leaving. Kasidy is such a kind and caring person and I loved talking with her about all her other animal experience and knowledge. We would highly recommend her !
