About: Your dogs care is my top priority! I take on 1 household at a time so your fur babies will get all the care and attention they deserve and require. My name is Megan, and I am a lover of all animals! I had 3 cats for 17 years, and since they have passed, I very much miss having animals in my everyday life. I am beyond grateful for this opportunity to spend time with your fur babies and will treat them like my own. In addition to owning cats, over the years, I have volunteered in animal shelters and have pet sat caring for both cats and dogs. I have experience caring for animals needing iv fluids, with hygiene specifications, daily medication, and special diets. I have experience in massage therapy and will happily give your little one a therapeutic rub down! My attention to detail and love for animals makes me a very hands-on caregiver. I currently work in my towns school district (typically M-F 7am-2pm) just 2 miles down the road. I am off summers, major and religious holidays and am able to be home at 10:15 during my lunch break for 30min walks/visits so your pup would never be left alone for more than 3 hrs on days I work. I will always be transparent about my schedule and only ever accept jobs where I know I can give your animal the attention they deserve. I will be your pets main caretaker but I live with my retired mother, Donna, who is around at times to lend a helping hand. I am a homebody who also loves the outdoors. When I am not home, I love to go on hikes, visit parks, and take walks in nature. I prefer the company of animals to people, so I can assure you they will never want for attention or affection! I welcome as much information/details about your pets routine as possible so I can keep them feeling safe, happy, and regulated during their stay. Other than the few hours I may be at work, I spend close to every other minute with the pups I care for. I welcome your pets to sit with me on the couch and sleep with me at night! Unless it is your wish to keep them off furniture, where I go, they go :) I have a gated yard (44in) for your dog to run and play. I live on a long quiet street, great for our walks. I am close to several parks. I am happy to give your pet whatever activity level you desire and they feel comfortable with. Any and all instructions you leave for me will be followed with the utmost care to keep our little buddy happy! I have a close family member who was a vet tech and has a vast working knowledge I can call upon if ever necessary. If you have any questions don’t be afraid to shoot me a message and ask away!

Extremely reliable & detailed….. she wanted to be sure she followed my instructions to the letter. Excellent!!! I’ve already re-booked her for June! Thanks Paige….. great job with my fur-babies 🥰”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We can't praise Mike enough for his incredible pet-sitting services! He has stayed over and also dropped in for visits. He has taken care of our three dogs and two cats flawlessly. Mike not only follows our instructions to the T, but also has a remarkable ability for understanding our pets' needs even without detailed guidance. It truly gives us peace of mind knowing our furry crew are in such capable hands. His warm and caring approach makes it clear that he genuinely loves animals, and our pets adore him! If you're looking for a reliable and skilled pet sitter, we highly recommend Mike. You won't regret it!”


“Michael has been absolutely wonderful with our doggo! He has such a care and attention to her needs, and even helped out when she got into trouble and got into our pantry lol.

We can tell that she is very comfortable with him, and would recommend Micheal to anyone with a furry friend! :)”

“Veronica was so sweet, and so diligent while watching my 2 cats while we were away. We were lucky enough to meet her prior, have her meet the cats & luckily enough it wound up being a great fit. Getting the updates of her visits gave us peace of mind the cats were being well taken care of, and we'll most definitely book with Veronica again in the future.”


“everything went exceptionally well with Kevin taking care of Darla and River. Kevin was punctual, followed instructions that were left and interacted with the dogs extremely well. I give him 5 STARS and will use him when his services are required in the future.”


About: I have experience with taking care of my own fur baby for 7 years. Besides her I have also taken in family pets whilst they went to vacation, as well as drop ins and checking their pets for the duration of two weeks. I was capable of teaching the pets under my care tricks and was always on top of everything being responsible, and making sure the fur babies got the attention they needed. I am also comfortable looking after feline (cat) pets as I have taken care of them with my boyfriends family during drop ins, and also freshwater aquarium pets as I have hosted them in my home for my cousins taking care of up to 6 in a tank. I am in college so I only attend school three days out of the week leaving all day of monday and friday, adding on I have a late class wednesday so I am available early on Wednesdays! I am also free on the weekends. So, I am able to check in with pets during my free time, and make sure to care for the fur babies. I can do afternoons for monday, friday, and the weekend and day time for wednesday! In my home I have one pet, my girl dog pearl who receives all the love she can get and is treated as a family member :) In my home I have a fenced yard, I have treats to provide, toys, and more. I also have a play penn in which pets can have space and play freely if wished to be crated. I will make sure to always give attention to the pets just as if they were my own babies.

“Sara was great with our cats. They warmed up to her immediately and she kept them well fed and entertained. Would hire again!”


“Liz is great, she always helps out with Bonnie when needed. Highly recommended!”


About: I have a 10 month old puppy and two 10 year old cats of my own! I spoil them rotten and will do the same for yours. I love going on long walks that allow your dog to be fully enriched and engulfed in their surroundings. Whether you prefer your dog to go on structured walks, sniffy walks, or anything in-between, I can do it all! I love dog walking and making the most out of our time together. I work as a social worker at a local school district so I would love to do after school walks! On breaks from school, my availability is fully open. I also love spending my time on weekends outdoors and would absolutely love exploring with your dog Saturday/Sunday anytime. I would love to do neighborhood walks or nature walks with your dogs and play with them in the yard. I can also provide drop in visits for potty breaks and fetch in the yard!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a child. Lots of experience in caring for dog and dog walking. I also have experience in caring for a pet after surgery and administering medication. I understand how important it is for your dog to be comfortable while you are away from home. I work full-time, but I work from home two days a week. Those days I would be available for dog walking or checking in on your pet. Could do in-home sitting, preferably on weekends, but should be able to fit weekdays schedule also. I would be caring for your pet in your home. This would make them the most comfortable being in their own house. I will try to stick to the same routines that the owner does.

About: I've been around household pets my entire life. My special skill is simply kindness and attention to detail. I will treat your fur baby as if it were my own. I am newly retired so all of my attention will be on your baby! I am newly retired and at home full time. All of my attention will go to your pup for the duration of their visit. He/she will always have company. I will be respectful of whatever routine you have in place for your fur baby. Outside of that, with permission, your pup would hang out with my family and I indoors and/or in our fenced in backyard. We do have an inground pool but I will be extremely attentive and careful not to ever leave your baby unattended. With your permission, your baby can join us for a nice swim!

Shes a dog whisperer.”

With Alyssa, I never had to worry about her as I knew she went above and beyond to make sure she was well taken care of. Her size and her energy didn’t intimidate her. She took her on walks, played with her endlessly outside and gave her extra snuggles while I was gone. I would highly recommend her to take care of your pet too!”
