“Kaleigh is incredible and I’m so happy to have found her! She made drop-in visits for my two pups while I was out of town and they were alone during the day for the first time. She was so sweet with them and sent me the cutest pics and videos! She was also super patient and flexible when my dates moved around as plans changed. Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will definitely book her again anytime she’s available! Thank you Kaleigh! 💜🐾”
About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was 16, so I have years of experience with animals of all ages and personalities, from energetic puppies and playful kittens to older pets who need extra patience and love. I currently have two dogs and a cat, and I’ve raised them since they were young, so I understand the attention, training, and care every animal needs. I’m an athlete and love going on walks, so I can keep up with high-energy dogs or take long, leisurely strolls with older pets. I’m also comfortable handling feisty or shy pets, and I always focus on building trust, keeping pets safe, and making sure they feel happy and loved while their owners are away. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, cuddles, or just companionship, I treat every animal like family and adapt to their unique personality and needs. I’m willing to go the extra mile (literally and figuratively) to make sure your pets feel cared for, safe, and comfortable. I just finished school and currently work as a waitress for about 4 hours a day, which leaves me with plenty of free time. I’m looking to spend those off-hours doing something I genuinely love caring for pets. My schedule is really flexible, so I’m able to fit in walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting throughout the day and week. Whether you need regular visits or last-minute help, I’m happy to make it work around my shifts. When I’m caring for pets in my client’s home, I follow their routine as closely as possible so their pet feels safe and comfortable. I stick to feeding schedules, walk times, playtime, and any special instructions you leave. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality whether they’re playful, shy, or extra cuddly and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and reassurance while you’re away. I also respect your space by keeping everything clean, secure, and exactly how you left it. When caring for pets in my own home, I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can play and explore safely. My dogs are kept in my garage during visits so your dog has full freedom to roam in the yard or, if they are an indoor dog, stay inside the house comfortably. I already have two dogs and a cat, so I’m used to managing different personalities and making sure everyone feels safe and happy. Walks, playtime, and lots of love are always part of the day. No matter where your pet is, my goal is always the same: to keep them safe, happy, and loved just like they’re part of my own family.
About: Dog, cat, parrot and fish owner for 10+ years (and a couple frogs as well 🐸 ) Patient and attentive, I want to give your animals the love they deserve while you’re away!! I work full time, so am available for drop ins and walks in the late afternoon/evenings and weekends! Happy to book last minute to meet your needs:) I am attentive and prioritize my animals’ comfort and safety, and pay close attention to the needs they are communicating. Your baby will be well cared for, the way I’d treat my own 🥰
“Curt is a superstar sitter! We’ve been booking for daily drop in visits for over a year and he's been a massive help to us. Curt is reliable, responsible and loving with our dogs. We especially appreciate the surprise toys he often brings our pups on his visits!”
“Kathleen arrived on time, devoted the full half hour to Kalea. Our dog is nervous having recently had surgery and is in pain. Kalea opened up, trusting Kathleen. She was able to get massaging and some deeper rubs even some prom moves.”
“Ali was very thorough in checking in on our lil comrades. She provided photos for every check in and was even able to interact with our cats which is rare considering how shy they are. We will definitely be reaching out to her on future trips.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a kid. I have years of experience working with large dogs with anxiety and high energy, especially German Shepherds. I have been trained in reconditioning and desensitization training for anxious/traumatized dogs. I also love working with small and medium dogs. I am very attuned to the body language of cats and dogs and am attentive to their nervous system to ensure everyone’s safety and comfort. I’m currently working part time and my schedule is very flexible. I can also do most of my work remotely so I can be with your pets even more. I can be available most days and nights. I strive to maintain your pet’s normal routine, whatever that may look like. I know that when you are away, that can be more stressful for your pet so I try to do whatever I can to make your pet more relaxed and happy. If I am house sitting overnight, I will clean any dishes I have used, launder any sheets or towels if I am able and generally leave a tidy space for you to return to.
“Maureen saved the day! I had to leave my kitty for 2 weeks and couldn't have asked for a more attentive sitter. The daily updates and pictures reassured me he was in good hands. Definitely will be using her again.”
“Kimberly is awesome! She takes great of the pups and clearly cares for them. We always feel comfortable when we are away knowing that Kimberly will care for dogs as if they were her own.”
About: I’ve had pets almost my entire life and can’t imagine a home without at least 20 extra legs romping around! I love caring for pets of all kinds—dogs and cats, whether they’re easygoing or have extra needs. I’m calm, attentive, and tuned in to their routines, comfort, and subtle cues. I also have experience with more complex situations, like fostering pregnant dogs (including one on strict bed rest with a broken leg) and supporting her and her puppies through pneumonia. I’ve provided breathing treatments, assisted with chest therapy, bottle-fed sick puppies, and administered medications when needed. Beyond that, I’ve raised puppies with and without their moms, hospice-fostered senior dogs, regularly dog- and cat-sat for friends, and fostered kittens and cats. I treat every pet as if they were my own, so you can trust they’ll be safe, happy, and truly cared for. Pet care is already woven into my daily life. I currently have two cats and three dogs, so feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and engagement are a consistent part of my routine. I’m home regularly throughout the day to provide meals, companionship, and attentive care, rather than fitting pets in around long absences. Because my household already revolves around animal care, welcoming additional pets into my space doesn’t disrupt my routine—it simply means adding more friends to it. I’m thoughtful about maintaining structure, ensuring everyone gets individual attention, and keeping the environment calm, safe, and comfortable. Your pet will be cared for as part of a well-established, loving routine, not treated like an afterthought. I tailor care to each pet’s individual needs and preferences to create a calm, low-stress environment. I’m attentive and proactive about supervision, and if any concerns arise, pets are calmly and safely separated. I have experience managing mixed households and ensuring all animals have their own safe spaces. My home includes a fully fenced, secure backyard that is always closed and locked for safe outdoor time. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I closely follow their routines to maintain comfort and consistency. Above all, my priority is that every pet feels safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for.
About: Trusted care, daily updates, and peace of mind while you’re not there. I’ve taken care of chameleons, hamsters, fish, birds, bunnies, cats, and dogs. Those are just my pets. I’ve also cared for water turtles I am retired and my time is very flexible to be able to help with routines and needs for care throughout the day and evening. I will not be able to keep animals in my home as I have too many but I am willing to stay at your home I would treat them as if they were my own
“Jennifer did a great job with my dog Bailey. She regularly sent pictures every time she took him for a walk and he looked very happy in those pictures. I would highly recommend Jennifer for walking your dog. She was great.”
About: If I had to add up all of the walks and ball throws in my lifetime, so far, it would probably be in the millions. I have had many pets over the years and I have cared for pets of family and friends since I was 7. I am a very compassionate person. I have experience with all types of animals the list is almost endless. Animals of all life stages are welcome with me. I am Pet First Aid certified. I even have experience caring for animals with special needs. During my life I raised a cat named Gizmo, she was diagnosed very early with hydrocephalus and cleft palate. I was told she would not even make it to the age of two, instead she lived a happy and loved life until the age of 10. My family also adopted the sweetest blind German Shepherd named Maddie. She had been dumped at a kill shelter after her original owners had discovered she had gone blind. Pets are part of the family and should always be treated with love and affection. If you choose to work with me, I can assure you, your pets will be in the best home away from home. I am currently working from home so your pets will get all of the attention they need. No waiting long periods for potty breaks. I am available for boarding seven days a week, drop off or pick up as early as 6 am and as late as 8pm. I live in a single story home so no stairs for older pups to have to climb. I have a medium sized back yard that is fenced off. No pool. However, I do have a small play pool for pups to enjoy in warmer weather. With owners permission of course. I provide daily walks, there are beautiful walking trails and parks with in walking distance. I currently have a cat and she is very mellow and pretty much keeps to herself during the day. She is used to dogs and other animals. We recently lost our 16 year old chihuahua to a heart condition. I do have a child under the age of two but he is used to animals. He is really quite tender and loving.
About: I have a great deal of patience and compassion for animals. Any animal I meet usually trusts me right away and end up having a bond right when I first arrive to watch them. I promise I will provide them with the best of care! I will always update with tons of pictures and always let you know what is going on. While growing up I've cared for a wide variety of animals for most of my life, from farm animals, to wild animals, to pets. I work part time but would love to accommodate anyone at anytime if they need a walker or someone to drop in for a quick visit I make sure the dogs are fed, watered, exercised outside with a bunch of playtime. Take them on walks in a nice safe environment unless owner says otherwise.
“Trey was a life saver! He took great care of our two dogs for two drop in visits. He even arrived a few minutes early! He was very communicative, sent photos and gave me updates which is always a huge plus!! I will definitely be booking with Trey in the future. If you need someone dependable who will take great care of your pups, book Trey!”

Claire was an excellent caregiver for my two cats. She was a great communicator and I had complete peace of mind leaving for over a week with my cats under Claire’s care. The check-in snapshots were great! Overall, I couldn’t think of a better caregiver and would highly recommend her to anyone. 6/5 stars ☺️
Lilah was incredibly reliable and communicative and was successfully able to medicate both of my shy kitties. I will hire her again and recommend her to all my friends! I loved getting photos of my babies and was able to enjoy my time away knowing they were in excellent hands.
