About: I have taken care of animals since I was a little girl. I have always had multiple cats at a time. Staying at friends house also helped me learn how to take care of farm animals at a young age as well. I work a fulltime and part time job. My hours are flexible on most weekends. During the week preferably before 7 am and after 4 pm. I do not board any pets, but am willing to take care of them at your home. Following steps left by the pet owner and taking notes during our conversation.

About: I have taken care of dogs my entire life. My family has always had multiple dogs in our home and a house isn’t a home without a dog. For years I have cared for friends and family dogs while they were either at work or vacation. Now that I am retired I have a lot more time to give helping others who need support to care for their dog. I am available all hours of the day and night. I can pick up dogs or they can be brought to my home. I am semi retired and this allows me lots of flexibility in my schedule. I have a fenced in yard that backs up to conservation land that I use to exercise my own dogs. If allowed by owner, walks on the beach at low tide is a favorite activity for our dogs. During the summers I walk the many trails this area has to offer, many with ponds the dogs love to swim in.

“Sue was fantastic! Our dog Bailey, and two cats felt very comfortable with her. She even sent pictures! Excellent critter sitter! Looking forward to having her back again and would highly recommend her to others. Thanks Sue ???”


About: I have been a dog owner for the last 25 years. I have raised three Labrador retrievers, each unique and special in their own way. I enjoy being around dogs and I frequently babysit overnight for my friend’s dogs. During the summer, I am available moat days and have a flexible schedule to help accommodate pet owners. As a pet owner myself, I know things come up and you might need a little extra help. I consider myself to be a great pet owner. I have always trained my own dogs due to my background as a BCBA, although I do not train dogs I understand positive reinforcement and the need for consistency. My own dogs have always come first, even when caring for multiple ACL surgeries.

“Zack was amazing with our dog! He dropped in and stayed for longer than we asked him too because he truly cares about the animals he is taking care of. We are thankful for finding him!”


“Tracy did a great job with the cats. She fed them, administered medication, played with them, scooped their boxes and washed the cat dishes. Will definitely be having Tracy care for them again!”

“Elizabeth popped in for a walk with Ari & was great at accessing her needs and making sure she was comfortable! She provided a very detailed update, so I was able to know my pup was safe. Ari seemed very happy and healthy after!”


About: I’m a lifelong pet and dog lover with a 7 year-old female spayed lab, Ellie, of my own. I’ve cared for family, friends, and neighbor’s dogs for more than 25 years. My Ellie is very calm, friendly, highly socialised, and great with other dogs and children of all ages. I work from home and operate a licensed family daycare with success for more than 25 years. I have weekends off where I have plenty of time to take walks with my own dog and others. I am available for over night dog stays at that time also. My work area is separate, but I have a large fenced in yard with grass. My own dog plays with the children outside, but mostly stays upstairs when we are in. My Ellie often prefers the couch over her dog bed, and I’m fine with that. 😊 I have a completely fenced in backyard where the dogs get plenty of fresh air and exercise, but are never outside alone. My dog Ellie loves playing with other dogs and has a portable ‘doggy pool’ when it’s hot and plenty of shade. If your dog enjoys the comfort of their crate or special bed, feel free to bring them along.Home also has central air to keep your fury ones cool.

About: I have owned, trained and loved dogs, cats, puppies and kittens all my life. Large breeds and small. I enjoy making friends with every dog or cat I come across. Now that I'm srmi-retired, becoming a pet sitter feels like the most natural job in the world for me. I work only part time, so I have time to pet sit part time. My family is grown and gone, and my only pet at this time is a kitty who doesn't mind my absences I will be caring for pets in their homes. I will follow whatever routines my charges are used to, and the house rules of their masters.

Dyanna R.
“To Whom It May Concern, It is with genuine enthusiasm and confidence that I recommend Dyanna for any opportunity that aligns with their exceptional talents, character, and work ethic. I’ve had the privilege of knowing dyanna for 40 years, and in that time, I’ve come to deeply respect their integrity, intelligence, and unwavering commitment to excellence. Dyanna brings a rare blend of warmth, professionalism, and creativity to everything they do. Whether tackling a complex challenge, supporting a team, or going the extra mile to help others, they lead with thoughtfulness and determination. They are an outstanding communicator, a quick learner, and someone who truly cares about the impact of their work. What sets Dyanna apart is not just their skills, but their character. They are deeply reliable, kind, and grounded — someone you can trust to handle responsibility with care and to treat everyone with respect. I’ve seen firsthand how they inspire those around them and bring out the best in any team. I wholeheartedly recommend Dyanna without reservation.

Tj D.
“TJ has watched my dog, Oscar, when I go out of town and she is absolutely fantastic! She is so great about playing with him and keeping him busy - he can be a nervous dog but she calms him down and when I pick him up he is always reluctant to go home with me! She is also great at staying in communication and texted updates and photos the entire time. She absolutely loves all dogs, and it is her obvious in the way she cares for her own pups as well as others. I highly recommend her as a great pet sitter for your four legged friends!”

“GG is a kind, patient person with a huge heart. Experienced pet owner… I have known her for over 20 years and personally attest to the way she treats her pets and other animals. I have left my “needy” dog with her without worrying about her losing patience with my hyper mini pinscher. Your pet will be in good hands.”
