1. Hanna M.

“Hanna is the best! She is kind, caring, thorough, communicative, comfortable giving medication. She was a life saver and relieved a lot of stress when we travel! Every day we received a summary and picture of her visit with our sweet Jamie. I will be trusting Hannah again with our fur children the next time we are gone!”


2. Anica E.

“We were delighted with Anica. She sent pics and videos and gave our sweet tomcat the best attention. We would love for Anica to look after our boy again when we are off on future travels! Thank you Anica! Marianne H.”

4. Christina S.
About: i’ve grown up taking care of my own cats and dogs all my life and I’m looking to give a helping hand to anyone who needs help watching their own pets. As I’ve gotten older I realized I have the time to reach out and help those who love their dogs and cats as much as i do and i know life can get crazy busy sometimes but i know it’s easier when you know your pets are in good hands. I plan on taking care of every animal as if they were my own and following any routine or even medical issues at hand because I’ve dealt with those in the past as well. I can’t wait to meet all your expectations and more !


5. Emma D.
“Emma is our go to caregiver for Magnus, Gustav and Isis! She is the most responsible and conscientious of all the pet sitters we have ever engaged. Highly recommend this pet loving angel for your fur baby care.”


6. Carley T.

“Carley, thank you for your excellent care of our two kitties, keeping up with our big boy's meds, getting our shy girl to come out and enjoy time with you, giving them loving attention, and managing their food/water/litter. Much appreciated & will contact again when we need coverage. Thank you!”


7. Riley H.
About: I have had 3 dogs in my life and have experience training them when they are puppies, as well as taking care of dogs with medical issues where I have to administer insulin and give the dog pills. I currently have a 7 month old puppy at home, so I am taking care of her full time. I do not have another job so my schedule is pretty open right now to help take care of some other dogs/puppies! I do not have a fenced in yard, but I like to take my dog on leash walks in our private neighborhood. I as well have a spacious house with plenty of toys where another puppy/dog can play with my friendly dog. I as well have a crate that can be used at any point if needed.


8. Rachel K.
About: I have had pets in my life since the 1st grade. I worked as a veterinary assistant for 2+yrs. I have been an equestrian for 31yrs, I currently own 1 horse and lease another. My Belgian Tervuren is 9yrs old. I also have 3 cats and 20 chickens. I am well rounded in pet care as I have been providing such service since I was a teenager. I know what it is like to leave your pets in the care of another and I promise to take care of yours like I take care of my own! I do have a full time job, but that does not mean that I cannot provide care. Each booking will be tailored to your pets needs and my availability. Currently I am not offering any pet care in my own home, but I am happy to schedule anything outside of my home that works best for myself and the client.

10. Crystal S.

“Crystal was absolutely great with my dog, who was a rescue, who was abused. Crystal’s experience and talent showed Pepper that she can learn to trust people. Most definitely will call on Crystal for when I plan to go away again. Great job Crystal!”

15. Phoebe S.
About: Dedicated dog walker/animal sitter with 8+ years of experience. Providing care to a variety of breeds. Skilled in handling anything from small to large breed dogs, cats, and other pets. Proven ability to maintain a positive and comforting environment, exercise animals regularly, and to communicate professionally with pet owners. Committed to ensuring the safety and well-being of all animals in my care. Can also administer medicine if needed. I am currently working part-time as a groomer for myself. Plenty of time for me to care for your fur babies. I am pretty much flexible. Just need a couple weeks in advance to schedule :) I’ve had a love for pets ever since I was a child. I care for pets in my home and/or your home by making sure they are as comfortable as can be. When they go out, they are on a leash at all time. I do not have a fenced in backyard, but I do have 2 very friendly, playful dogs that will keep your fur baby entertained all day long. I can also easily crate dogs if needed.


16. Jess B.

“Jess dropped in to take care of our dogs for us. Both pups were fed and happy when we got home! We will definitely book with her again!”


17. Nicole K.
“Nikki is an invaluable companion/caretaker to our ten year old Westie, Daisy, and our sixteen year old Maine Coon, Luciano. Whenever we ask her to stop by our home to walk, feed, play with Daisy, and just make sure she is ok, Nikki does so with kindness, gentleness, and the utmost care. She, also, ever so readily, will come by to check on, feed, pet Luciano, and, of course, take care of his litter box. Her interactions with our pets always puts our minds at ease when we are away. She lets us know how they are doing, and any changes she notices in their behaviors and habits. We are grateful for Nikki because we don't have to worry when our pets are in her care. She knows that our pets are family members, and she gives them the enthusiastic attention they deserve. She loves to share her time with the animals and you will be impressed with her level of dedication. We wholeheartedly recommend Nikki to care for your pets.”


18. Thomas D.
About: I previously worked as a dog walker/sitter for 2 years while also taking courses on dog behavior and training. I've worked in pet stores where I was educated on dietary needs of pets and how to administer medication. I'm working part time, so I have some days where I can do multiple visits in a day. My availability can range from early in the morning to late in the evening. My family and myself have always had dogs around. We've also had cats too. Currently I have a lovely pitbull terrier named Kingston that is and absolute sweetheart to care for. I've taken care of a variety of breeds ranging from toy size to over 100lbs. I've also had to administer shots to dogs from time to time. I like to take dogs for long walks and then sit and get them comfortable afterwards.


19. Morgan A.
“Morgan has taken care of our dogs on numerous occasions as well as the pets of many of my friends. She is able to reach and connect with even the most difficult of pooches. She gives them her undivided attention, is down on the floor playing with them, takes them for long walks and shows them bundles of love. I call her the “dog whisperer.” She is amazing!! I would trust her implicitly and quite frankly, she missed her calling…she should have gone to vet school.”


20. Sarah R.
“Im happy to recommend the services of Sarah as a house and pet sitter. She always gives our cats dogs horses and chickens the most loving care. I'm confident you will quickly come to rely on her for all your pet sitting needs! I don't go anywhere unless she's available!”
