Makayley did a great job. We could not have asked for better service. I think our puppy would go home with Makayley if she would let him. She sent us pictures every day with briefings on how our puppy was doing. He missed us for the first couple of days, but then he seemed to accept Makayley as his temporary master. I think we missed him more than he missed us!. Great job!

Jasmine did a great job taking care of our dog. This was our first time using Rover and we were hesitant, she took pictures of our dog and handled our big hyper dog so well. Highly recommend her! Will definitely use Jasmine again!

Alexandria did a great job with my kitty, Bea. When I got home Bea was calm, happy, fed, and her long hair was brushed. She sent photos and videos. The house was tidy! She even put out the trash for trash day. I would ask Alexandria to Bea-sit again.

About: I grew up on a working farm, so I've cared for all kinds of animals throughout my life. My family and I bred, raised, and sold labrador puppies for many years. Neighbors and friends have also relied on me to feed, walk, and house sit their pets. I am a stay at home mom, so my schedule is flexible allowing me to cater to your timeline. I prefer a week in advance notice, but if you're in need of last-minute care please reach out, I'd love to try and help. I live in a very rural area, perfect for walks and outdoor play with your pet! I have a fenced yard, pet-friendly indoor space, and crates for your fur baby if needed. *Please note* I do have a toddler, so if your pet is not child-friendly, please notify me in advance.

Raeann was great! She took great care of my two cats while I was away for a long weekend. Sent pics and updates, gave one of my boys his injectable medication each day, and gave them some extra loving on top of it too! Even vacuumed before I got home! It was wonderful peace of mind knowing they were well taken care of and would definitely book again!

This was the longest I’ve ever left my cat, Jack, and I honestly could not have asked for a better sitter. Jack is extremely shy and nervous around new people, so I was very anxious about leaving him, but Nicholas was incredibly patient, kind, and understanding with him from the start. Within just a few days, Jack completely warmed up to him, which honestly says everything. I received beautiful daily pictures and videos, and it was so reassuring seeing how comfortable, happy, and loved Jack was while I was away. Because of that, I was truly able to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing he was in such great hands. I came home to a very happy cat, and I’m so grateful for the care and attention Jack received. I would absolutely recommend Nicholas to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and reliable pet sitter.

My cat, Jack, had the best care while I was away for 8 days! I came home to a happy, relaxed, and clearly very loved kitty. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such great hands. Viridianne is incredibly attentive, caring, and reliable, and it’s obvious how much she truly loves animals. Jack absolutely adores her! I’ve used her multiple times and will continue to do so—I couldn’t recommend her more highly.

Melissa was a fantastic cat sitter! She is a very caring individual who took very good care of our "baby", and was very kind, considerate and timely. She definitely has a great love of animals, and our cat was very well taken care of and loved. We would absolutely ask her to care for our cat in the future!

About: I’ve had/been around many different types of dogs my entire life. My family would always want me to come over and train/watch theirs animals for them like I was the go to person for anybody who got a new pet. I also use to volunteer at a boarding company to help feed/walk the dogs. I currently do doordash so I can pretty much fit any request in to my schedule. The most amount of time I would be away would probably be around 5-6 hours. I’m a dependable and caring pet sitter who treats every pet like my own. I know how important routines are, so I make sure pets are fed on time, get plenty of attention, and feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away. I’m patient, responsible, and good at picking up on what each pet needs, whether that’s playtime, walks, or just some extra cuddles. I also like to keep owners updated so they can relax knowing their pet is happy and well taken care of.

Heidi was wonderful. She came by to feed my dog, spent quality time with him, and made sure he was well cared for. She was reliable, sent great updates, and gave me peace of mind while I was away. I’m especially grateful that she was able to step in at the last minute over a holiday. I’d absolutely recommend Heidi and would gladly book her again.

About: Pet care plays a significant role in my life as I am working as a veterinary assistant and am actively pursuing an Associate degree in Animal Care and Management. My job allows me to directly impact the well-being of animals, while my studies deepen my knowledge and skills in providing top-notch care. my passion for animal welfare shines through as I balance work and education, creating a fulfilling and purposeful routine. By dedicating myself to pet care both professionally and academically, I am not only enriching my own life but also positively impacting the lives of the furry friends I encounter. On my days off from working and school I would love to offer my services to pets and their owners. Knowing they’re with someone experienced in pet care is super important. Since my pets are mostly farm animals they Free range their pastures. Although I do have a dog and his name is max. Max has a huge yard to run around in so im never too worried about him having to go on a walk he just runs around in our fenced in yard. max gets his daily exercise in as he is a small breed dog.

This was our first time using a sitter and it was a wonderful experience. She was well prepared and noted all of our concerns. Ashley kept us updated and sent lots of pics. We came home to a happy dog which is exactly what we wanted.

About: I have worked with animals since I could walk. My mother owned a doggy daycare/boarding facility for the majority of my life and I have worked there since the beginning. I have worked hands-on with all sorts of pets and am prepared and accustomed to aiding other people's animals while they're away from their humans. I am currently working Monday - Thursday but am available all day Friday and the weekends! If your animal only needs a morning and evening check in during the week however, then that works for me! I care for each animal as if they are my own, giving them all the love, support, and care that my own animals get. If there are any specific needs or requests, then I am more than willing to implement them into my care as well.
