“We had an excellent experience with Mariah. This was my first time leaving my cats in the hands of a pet sitter so I was a bit nervous. During the week, Mariah sent updates of how the cats were doing as well as photos of each kitty. I couldn’t be happier”
“Liv was so understanding and patient with my dog, Poppy, and was really flexible and reliable! She was willing to stop by two times so Poppy could get to know her before her drop in visits, which I really appreciated. Poppy is deaf and can be a little high energy but Liv was awesome with her, sent lots of pictures and updates, and Poppy loves her!”
“Emily was great to work with and I would recommended her to anyone. This was the first time I left the cats at home so I was a little nervous but Emily made me feel that they were in good hands.”
“Rusty has been great with my dog, Kota! Since Kota can be nervous around new people, we scheduled a meet-and-greet prior to any visits. Rusty took the time to get to know his quirks, and allowed for a slow introduction. He has been very reliable and flexible, and always provides detailed updates. I highly recommended booking with Rusty!”
“Leslie went above and beyond checking in on our kitties and our dog while we were away. She made sure everyone had water and treats and even checked a few other things around our home. We got pictures and an update each day as well. We will definitely be utilizing Leslie in the future to help care for our animals when we're away!”
“Another stellar performance!! Thank you Julia for coming to make sure the babies were ok. I know they loved seeing you again and we look forward to having you check on them again!”
About: I’ve had cats and dogs my whole life and I still do to this day. If you need any assistance, don’t hesitate to reach out! I have a pretty flexible schedule as I work from home most days of the week. I’d love to take your pup for a walk around the neighborhood! I have 2 cats and a puppy. I would treat any pet as if they were my own and make sure you’re happy and trusting that I’ll take care of them.
About: In addition to growing up with dogs, cats, horses, sheep and goats, I worked at Ben-Jee Kennels for two summers. My duties there included dog walking, feeding, administering medications, and facilities cleaning. I have also pet sat for many friends and am comfortable with animals of all sizes. My job allows me to work from home full time, with occasional travel within surrounding counties. This gives me the flexibility to house sit and dog walk during standard business hours. I do not have a fenced in yard at my property, so I will not be petsitting animals in my own home. I am more than willing to house sit or drop by to walk &feed animals.
About: I’ve been around cats and dogs all my life. I care about everyone’s pets just like they are my own and would love to take care of yours I am a full time teacher and my summer is wide free for anyone that may need care for their pets while they are at work, vacation, or away. I will care for your pets just like they were my own. I will follow whatever directions are provided for me to the best of my ability
About: I’ve had a deep love for cats, dogs and all things furry my entire life, sharing my home with corgis, labradors, Norwegian Forest Cats,, and lovable mixed breeds. From playful pups to wise old companions, I’ve cherished them all. I’ve attended training classes with my dogs and am certified in pet first aid through the American Red Cross, ensuring I’m prepared to handle their needs safely and confidently. I treat my pets like cherished family—and that’s exactly how I’ll treat yours. My dogs and cats are truly part of my family, and I make sure they’re well-fed, exercised, and engaged with enrichment activities every day. I work from home several days a week and take time out of my day to give them the attention they need. They enjoy nutritious meals and safe, fun toys to keep them happy and stimulated. I love spending time with my dogs, taking them on vacation each year to the lake or beach because their company brings me joy every day. When caring for your pets in their own home, I bring the same love and attention I give my own animals. I respect their routines and environment, ensuring they’re well-fed, exercised, and mentally stimulated just as they’re used to. Being in a familiar space helps reduce their stress, and I make it a priority to provide consistent companionship and care tailored to their unique needs. Working from home allows me to dedicate quality time to your pets, giving you peace of mind while you’re away.
About: I have 10 years experience with every type of animal from puppies, cats to horses reptiles and birds. I also have experience with dog training. I currently work full time but my job is very flexible with breaks, so your furry friend will get all of the attention that they require! I believe in utilizing all of the space available to provide the most optimal experience for the pet and for the family returning back home
About: I have two pups of my own, a shitzu and boxer. My house is dog friendly and your pup will become one of the family over their stay with us. Treats, walks, and belly rubs for all. I work a full time job but am off all weekends. I am happy to host your animals Friday-Sunday. Optional weekdays possible after discussion on care. I own a house in town with a privacy fence in my back yard. Dogs are allowed to free roam the house while I am there, unless otherwise instructed.
About: I've worked in vet med for over four years. I've owned animals my whole life and currently have four of my own critters (one dog and three kitties). I currently work part time while going to school. My schedule is a bit different every day of the week, so please let me know what you need and we can make a plan! I have a ton of experience with cats and dogs, both in my personal life and my professional life. Because I'm an experienced vet tech, I'll be able to recognize any concerning signs with your pets while you're away, and I'm trained to give medications if needed (oral, topical/ears, injectable).
“Very kind and caring sitter. Was able to check up on our pups at requested times. Sent us plenty of photos and checked in with us regularly. She was willing to take the time for our one pup to get to know her.(he is defensive towards new people and has to warm up to people). And she was able to book our requested days literally last moment when our boarding situation fell through. Will gladly say we will be scheduling more with her in the future.!”

“Ivy seemed to enjoy her daily visits from Megan based on the pictures and daily notes. I was satisfied with Megan and will reach out to her/Rover if I need a sitter again.”
Jennifer P.
“I’m writing to provide a reference for Jen Plank, who has consistently taken excellent care of my cat, Pepper, whenever I travel. Most recently, she looked after Pepper over the Christmas and New Year holidays, and she has also cared for her during Thanksgiving, Easter, and other times I’ve been away. Jen is incredibly reliable and always shows up on the exact dates and times we agree on. She keeps me updated with texts and pictures, which gives me real peace of mind while I’m away. My cat is usually very shy around people, but Jen is patient and understanding. She even followed my suggestion to turn on the TV and sit quietly in the living room so Pepper could come out at her own pace. It’s a small gesture that meant a lot to me and showed her respect for my pet’s personality and comfort level. When I return home, I always find Pepper well-fed, relaxed, and clearly cared for. Jen makes it easier for me to take short trips, knowing that my cat is in such good hands. I would absolutely ask her to help again and again—I trust her completely.”
