About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was probably around ten years old. Making sure they are fed, played with, and petted are all ways to show them they are pampered and loved, and that’s something I strive to do! I work a part time job, but I can always do my best to make my schedule flexible. The only unchanging thing I have is going to the gym for about an hour, but I will always come right back! My service is completely up to you! If your furry friend needs to go in the kennel for a little bit, I can do that. If he or she needs to be walked for an hour every day, I can absolutely do that as well. Once again, my service ends wherever you need it to!

About: I’ve had doggos my whole life and have been entrusted by friends/neighbors to take care of theirs since I was a kid! My family calls me Snow White because I’ve never met an animal that hasn’t liked me (it’s true). I’ve always loved animals of all kinds, but dogs hold a special place in my heart. I’d be honored with the trust of walking/checking in on your furry friend! *If weekends are needed, please ask upon booking!* I blocked due to my job, I’m a full-time real estate agent, but I’m able to have some flexibility. I’d be available earlier in the mornings and mid to late afternoon’s most days, but that could be subject to change depending on the day. When you book, I’ll be able to provide times with certainty, but I’d be able to walk and/or drop in up to twice a day during the week. I’ll treat your home and animal(s) as if they’re my own! I always make sure the animal(s) have enough fresh water, food (according to the feeding routine that’s given), and play time! If the animal(s) make a mess, I have no issue tidying/cleaning as needed. I’ll never leave without ensuring that the animal(s) are where they’re instructed to be, if applicable, and will always make sure your doors are closed/locked when I leave.

About: I’ve lived with dogs since I was a child and now I have my own 3 dogs as an adult. I’m the go-to pet sitter and helper for all of my friends and family. I’m currently working part-time and can help during the week day from 9 am - 3 pm. I love to help out and am looking forward to doing drop ins. My three dogs are escape artists so I have become well-versed in making sure they are secured while entering and exiting the house. You won’t have to worry about anyone slipping out.

About: I have experience caring for dogs through helping friends and neighbors with dog sitting and dog walking whenever they need me. I also have a 9 year old dog of my own, so I understand the daily responsibilities of caring for a pet. I love being around dogs and giving them lots of attention! I am currently home for the summer from college and will be working part time as a waitress, so I will have plenty of time for dog walking! I will take every safety measure there is when it comes to doggies such as making sure the doors are closed, the fence is closed, keeping them on the leash, and helping them feel comfortable.

I was really nervous leaving my 9 month month old kitty and 18 year old cat at home for 5 days while i was gone, but Rachel was such a wonderful sitter, and provided me with wonderful photos and thoughtful, detailed updates while i was gone that really put my mind at ease knowing they were in such good hands. Rachel really went above and beyond to make sure my cats were well taken care of, played with and happy. She even brought a few toys and treats for them to play with! And my 18 year old cat needed a topical medicine in her ear each day, which Rachel applied to her no problem… meaning my cat really trusts her. I almost think my cats were a little disappointed to see me instead of Rachel opening the door when i got home yesterday haha! Thanks so much Rachel - we will absolutely be in touch the next time we need a sitter!! I highly recommend her :)

Hope took such good care of my two kitties! This was my first time leaving them alone with a sitter and any anxiety I had about it went away immediately with Hope. She was prompt with a response to any message I sent, and I came back home to two happy cats and my home as clean as I left it. She sent me adorable updates each visit (2x a day) and was consistent with her schedule for them. I would recommend Hope to anyone!

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was 7 years old. I grew up on an acreage and we always had cats and dogs. I can administer shots and medication and have experience bottle feeding kittens and bunnies. I love animals and understand that each one is different and deserves love. I am patient and careful with each pet, giving them the attention they need and feel most comfortable with. I have a soft spot for senior animals. I am a teacher, so I am available all summer for your pet sitting needs! During the school year, I am only available on the weekends or after school check-ins. I will follow all directions and rules for taking care of your pet(s). Each one is special and I understand they all have their own needs. I am great at going with the flow with your pet and letting them lead the activity.

About: Some dogs need more than a sitter—they need someone who understands their fire. I specialize in caring for the bold, the stubborn, and the wonderfully rebellious (likely referred to as reactive) pups that others often turn away. With a training style rooted in positive reinforcement (yes, plenty of treats), I help even the toughest personalities feel safe, understood, and engaged. I avoid labeling dogs as “reactive,” even though it’s become the norm—I prefer positive terms like high‑drive that honor their energy and potential. From high‑drive Malinois and German Shepherds to clever Australian Shepherds, spirited Corgis, and the gentle giants like Mastiffs and Cane Corsos, these dogs aren’t just clients—they’re my best friends. Here, every dog gets the patience they deserve, the structure they crave, and a companion who truly gets them. Pet care is woven into my everyday life. I work part‑time in a dog kennel, so caring for dogs isn’t just a job—it’s truly my passion. I dedicate three full days each week to dog sitting, and I’m also available most weekday evenings. Spending my time with dogs, especially the rebellious and high‑drive ones, is simply part of who I am. When I care for pets, the dog’s needs always come first. I follow their routine, provide structure, and make sure they feel safe, understood, and engaged. I also take plenty of photos and videos of our playtime and daily activities, sharing them with the dog parents so they can relax and enjoy their time away knowing their pup is happy and well cared for.

Linnea followed through on all we requested. Our cat seemed to love Linnea's visits, and he was a happy cat when we got home. Having Linnea care for our cat was so much better than have a neighbor come in to check on our cat. We could tell Linnea loves cats.

Haley and Alex were fantastic! Super reliable and responsive, and they were also incredibly friendly. Our dog is a husky and pitbill mix who gets bad separation anxiety and is also high strung around new people. He warmed up to Haley and Alex right away, and they were well equipped to deal with a more high strung dog. Highly recommend them!

About: I love all animals, if you need someone to help I’d be gladly to help out. I have Been pet sitting and walked dogs for almost 9 years now. I have 5 animals of my own, 3 dogs, 2 cats. I am also a kennel attendant to all animals. I do some basic training for dogs, I can do it on walks so they learn basic skills even when there are people out or when dogs are out. I could help with that if needed. If the dog has a higher level of energy we will go for longer walks or runs. We will play with toys for a long period of time to tire him/her out. I work well with any kind of breed. Small, medium or large dogs. If you need the help I’ll be there to assist I’m currently working full time at a daycare but I normally have an hour to hour an half before having to go back to work to let out the dog(s). I will let the family know what time I have let them out and fed them. And normally completely free after work and will stay late to make sure the fur baby has had lots of love and cuddles If needed I will crate the dog, I will send photos of their fur baby to ensure their trust not only with me but to see that their animal is taken care of.

About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was eight years old. I had my own dog at this age until I turned 20 years old. I have also taken care of my friends dogs, or cats. This has made me be comfortable with feeding, walking, taking care of animals. I am reliable, timely, and really do love animals. I know animals are family and I will make sure to treat your animal with care and kindness. I have lots of time to be able to look after your animals. As of right now I am available Monday through Friday 9am - 9pm. My weekends fluctuate, so some weekends I may be available others I may not be, but I am very flexible. If you need a day on a weekend I am open to the conversation. I care for pet's by the instructions of the owner leaves. Also making sure that the pet is in a safe environment, this being when we go for walks, always making sure the pets leash is secure and being aware of my surroundings. I also will make sure your animal gets all the attention, and care they need.
