Angelee was great and took really good care of our pups. She kept us updated and sent plenty of pictures of them having fun outside. We will definitely be using her again.

About: I regularly care for dogs and cats for friends and coworkers. I love animals, and pet sitting lets me spoil them since I don’t have space for my own puppy. I work full-time with a bit of remote flexibility, so I’d love to sneak in some pet cuddles and care between work tasks. Free after 5 PM weekdays and all day weekends! I provide a safe, loving, and trustworthy environment for your pet in their own home. I follow routines, respect their space, and ensure comfort, care, and peace of mind while you’re away.

About: I have been around family pets from the age of 5 years old. At 17, I raised my own dog from a puppy as well as participated in obedience training up to the advanced level. I have worked with dogs of various breeds and sizes through house sitting and volunteering, and I have experience with dogs of all ages from newborn puppies to senior dogs. I have also had pet cats and enjoy caring for them and their needs. PLEASE NOTE: New clients must book a minimum of 5 nights for the first stay. My job allows me to work fully remote, meaning that my place of work allows me to be flexible for extended stays as well as have pauses throughout each day for the ideal at-home pet care schedule. I strive to maintain a routine as close to each pet's home life as possible. I set clear and simple boundaries for clients' pets that reflect those of their owner and allow them to feel at home with me as their sitter.

Emma was absolutely amazing!! This was the first time ever I’ve had so much peace of mind leaving our fur babies behind. Everyday I received pictures and updates on how they were doing! They were very spoiled with snuggles n love while we were gone by her! She cared for them like they were her own! For that we are very grateful and will definitely be using her again. Highly recommend her to anyone!!

Jodi did a wonderful job caring for our dogs, Maggie and Louie! She kept us updated with regular pictures and messages, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Both pups were happy and relaxed when we returned. She also left our home in great order and even took the sheets off the bed before we got back, which was such a thoughtful touch and very much appreciated. We’re grateful for her care and look forward to having her again in the future. Highly recommend!

About: I’ve taken care of animals at a very young age due to working on my grandparents farm growing up. Loved spending time with many different animals. I am a barista at a local coffee shop hours typically around 7am-1pm the latest 3pm. I am available for drop ins, walks, and over night stays! I take the dogs out multiple times and make sure to go on walks as well as play with the dogs when I am taking care of them. My cat prefers to be held like a baby while I’m at home (he’s terribly spoiled) so I would love to spoil your cat as well!!!

About: I've cared for dogs since I was a young boy when they would follow me home. I discovered I loved spending time with them. I've cared for a variety of dogs, small to large, pup to senior and dog's with disabilities who need extra TLC. I am able to assess and adjust my attention based on a dog's needs and desires, energetic and playful or gentle and loving. I've spent many hours training my dogs and will follow your instructions and commands to ensure best experience for you and your dog. I look forward to caring for your dog as if he or she was my own. I have lots of time most evenings (Wed-Fri) and all day on Saturday to care, walk and play with your dog(s), giving you time and peace of mind. I currently do not have a dog as my last rescue, Buddy, crossed the rainbow bridge last year. We are waiting for a move to the country before getting another dog and fostering many more. I will walk your animal on leash or use a dog park as you desire. Safety is always top priority. I stay aware of my surroundings and on the look out for potential threats to the dog I'm walking.

Stephanie is the best pet sitter we've ever had! She went above and beyond when one of our dogs had a medical situation and likely saved his life. Calm, pleasant, super responsive to calls and texts both! The house was immaculate and our other pups and kitties super calm and happy. Really caring! We can't thank her enough, and will surely invite her back. Fenway, Scooter and Sally say "4 paws up!"

About: From a young age I've always gravitated toward the unconditional love that an animal provides. Throughout my life, I've cared for miniature Yorkies all the way up to 90lb German Shepherd's. I’m currently a graduate student at Drury University so my schedule is flexible. Recently adopted a French bulldog and I'm looking forward to caring for yours! Your animal will have the peace and quiet of a house with only one other small French bulldog and no children. I would love to take your furry friend for a walk or relax at home.

Olivia took great care of our three dogs and an axolotl. She stayed at our house and was a very considerate guest leaving the house clean upon her departure. She was very easy to work with. I can’t be more happier with my decision to hire her to watch after our dogs. I highly recommend her.

I’ve been trusted with house sitting, ensuring homes remain clean, secure, and well-maintained while owners are away. I take pride in being reliable, responsible, and attentive. Pets quickly become comfortable with me, and owners know their home is in excellent hands. I’m in school on weekdays, but I’m available mornings, evenings, overnights, weekends, and holidays. I’m flexible with last-minute bookings and happy to adjust to pets’ routines. My schedule allows me to provide consistent care and attention while ensuring pets feel safe and comfortable. I treat every home as if it were my own, respecting your property and following your instructions carefully. I provide a safe environment for your pets by supervising them according to their needs, maintaining their routines, and ensuring they feel comfortable and cared for. I communicate regularly with owners, providing updates and photos, and I’m attentive to any special instructions or health concerns. Your pets’ safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities.
