Tracy was amazing and helped us out when we needed someone to let the dogs out very last minute. Tracy was able to send me a picture with both puppies looking at the camera at the same time. This is just short of a miracle :) so I know he is good with pups.

Paris took such amazing care of our kitties! Being the first time leaving our cats at home, we were a nervous wreck traveling all the way up to Michigan! Paris took such good care of them and always kept us informed every step of the way, easing our worries! Her flexibility, patience, understanding- we are so, so grateful!! We wouldn't trust anyone else (also a bonus that she's amazing with ALL pets and our extremely picky cats absolutely adored her!)

Christina was amazing!! Our little Charlie has had a tough few months since he lost his sister. It’s been quite an adjustment for him and when we would leave him, he would be so sad all the time. Christina did a drop in with him, and when we came home, he was a happy boy. She communicated very well with us, and when he met her for the first time he fell in love. I totally recommend her!!

Edmy is amazing. Our dogs loved her from the moment she walked in the door to meet them. We were surprised when she sent pictures of our cat visiting her too. She usually hides from guests in our home. Kind, patient, and truly seems to care about your pet. Very good communication as well about her visits. We hope she is always available to check in on our dogs when we are away for the day.

About: I’ve taken care of many dogs and cats for friends and family over the years. Along with my own two girls, a senior dog and a senior cat. I have a huge heart for animals and love them to pieces. Would love to meet your furry friend Currently working part time during the week days. Would be able to check in / walk your buddy for you before work (9am) , on break around (12pm), or after work (4pm). Weekends fluctuate but will be available either in the morning or evening I treat every pet I meet like they’re my own. I will bring comfort and relief to your buddy whenever you need! I love spending time outside; throwing a ball, going on a run.

About: I’ve had pets all my life. From lizards, to birds, cats and dogs, you name it. For the last 3 years I have been pet sitting for friends, neighbors, coworkers, and friends of friends as an in house sitter. I am currently working full time, however, my work life is very flexible with flexible hours. I can do middle of the day check ins if that is what you would prefer with no problem. I do spend a lot of time with the pets late afternoons to late evenings if I am not staying in the residence. When caring for pets in your home, I encourage a very detailed day to day that your pet has so I do not break from that routine for them as much as possible. It’s my hope for you and your pet to feel as safe and comfortable as possible. No needs or routine is too inconsiderate for me.

About: I have owned and taken care of a lot of dogs in the past 10 years. Friends, family and neighbors have trusted that I take great care of their fur babies! I offer overnight care in your home as well as walking and drop-ins! I am a self employed hair stylist so I can pretty easily modify my schedule to accommodate you and your dogs personal needs! I work 4-5 days a week so I am looking for something to do in my free time. I always prefer to have a run-down on how you take care of your dog and understand your personal routine with the dog so that I can mimic that to the best of my ability.

About: I’ve loved animals my whole life and have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I currently have two dogs of my own, including a golden retriever puppy, so I’m very familiar with puppy energy, basic training, and keeping dogs active and engaged. I’m a Recreational Therapist, which makes me naturally patient, attentive, and focused on creating safe, positive experiences. I love going on walks, playing, and making sure each dog feels comfortable and cared for based on their individual needs. I treat every dog like my own and always prioritize their safety, happiness, and routine. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so you can feel confident while you’re away! I work during the weekdays but have availability in the afternoons, evenings, and weekends for walks, drop-ins, or boarding. I’m flexible and do my best to accommodate your schedule and your dog’s routine. Whether your pup needs a quick visit, a long walk, or extra attention while you’re away, I’ll make sure they’re well cared for and get plenty of love and activity! I treat every dog like they’re my own and always focus on keeping them safe, comfortable, and happy. I have two friendly dogs, so I’m very familiar with reading behavior and making sure everyone feels at ease. I take introductions slowly, follow all routines closely, and can crate if needed. You can trust that your dog will be well cared for, supervised, and getting lots of love while you’re away.

About: I grew up in a household full of dogs and cats and a turtle! This lifelong exposure taught me that every pet has a unique personality and specific needs. For the past few years, I’ve specialized in in-home pet sitting, offering both daytime visits and overnight stays to ensure your pets feel secure in their own environment. I am particularly experienced with high-energy and reactive pups. My own 'wild' puppy has taught me patience and various positive reinforcement training techniques, so I’m well-equipped to handle strong pullers or dogs who get a bit nervous on walks. Whether it's a calm senior cat or a zoomie-prone puppy, I know how to keep them engaged and safe. As a college student, my schedule is incredibly flexible. I have the ability to step away for midday walks or check-ins, ensuring your pet is never alone for too long. During the summer months, I am out of school and only work a part-time job one day a week. This means I have nearly 24/7 wide-open availability for housesitting, extended stays, and frequent drop-ins to keep your furry (or shelled) friends company! I understand that your home is your sanctuary. I pride myself on being extremely cleanly and respectful of your space. My goal is to leave your home exactly as I found it (if not a little tidier!). Beyond the house, your pet's safety is my #1 priority. I am hyper-vigilant during walks and always adhere to your specific household rules regarding furniture, feeding, and routine. I treat every 'pet child' with the same love, attention, and protection I give my own, so you can have total peace of mind while you're away.

Samantha is awesome, very communicative and knows just how to spoil Tako cat! I loved all the photos she sent me, and knew Tako was being very well taken care of. I would certainly hire her again.

I highly recommend Tracy, he was exactly what my cat needed. He was patient and gentle with her, always cleaned her food bowl and refilled it, paid close attention to her water fountain, and made sure to play with her while also respecting her space when she wasn’t yet familiar with him. I would hire him again 100%.

Elliot was great to work with - very friendly, quick to respond, and flexible. Ozzy was very happy and well cared for when we got home. Elliot even helped us out with some deliveries and feeding our fish, as a last minute ask. We will definitely be in contact again for Ozzy-care the next time we're out of town! Thanks, Elliot!
