“This is the second time Ashley has taken care of my kids (this time 3 cats and 2 bunnies). She always arrived as scheduled and sent pictures and notes each visit. It is such a relief to be able to travel knowing my kids are well cared for, especially the bunnies, who require a specific feeding schedule. I highly recommend Ashley and will definitely be using her services in the future!”

About: Caring for others has been a meaningful part of my life for as long as I can remember—both people and animals. I’ve cared for my own pets, dog-sat for family and friends, rescued lost pets and helped reunite them with their owners, and have always been drawn to animals who need a little extra care and patience. I currently have a nine-year-old Beagle/Toy Poodle mix named Millie and a cat named Josie, who is about six years old. I rescued Josie as a stray when she was sick and in need of care. I took her in, helped her get healthy, patiently earned her trust, and ultimately decided to make her part of my family. Her journey has given me firsthand experience with cats who may be fearful, shy, anxious, temperamental, or slow to trust, and taught me how important patience, understanding, and respecting an animal’s boundaries can be. I’m comfortable with animals of different sizes, personalities, energy levels, and temperaments. I pay close attention to animal body language and behavior and can recognize the signs that a dog or cat is comfortable, fearful, overstimulated, anxious, playful, or welcoming. I believe understanding those signals is one of the most important parts of caring for an animal because every pet communicates differently. My caregiving experience also extends to people. I’ve cared for infants, toddlers, and children, helped my mother with babysitting while growing up, and have provided care and companionship to elderly individuals. My professional caregiving background also includes working as an obstetric technician, caring for newborns, young children, and mothers following delivery, as well as caring for elderly patients, including those who needed comfort, companionship, and attentive support. These experiences have taught me to be patient, observant, dependable, gentle, and attentive to the needs of those in my care. Whether I’m caring for a person or an animal, I understand that they may not always be able to tell me exactly what they need. I’ve learned to pay attention, recognize changes in behavior, and respond with compassion. I understand that leaving your pet with someone else can be difficult. I take that trust seriously. I’m comfortable following your pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and giving them the patience and space they need to feel comfortable. I also believe in keeping owners informed and communicating if I notice anything unusual about their pet. Most importantly, I don’t see pet sitting as simply “watching an animal.” I see it as caring for a member of someone’s family. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and genuinely cared for while you’re away—and for you to have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. My schedule is flexible because I do contract work, allowing me to focus on pet visits and walks. I’m happy to work with clients’ schedules and do my best to accommodate their routines, work hours, and pets’ individual needs. I prioritize safety, trust, and making every pet feel comfortable in my care. I have experience with dogs and cats of different sizes, personalities, and temperaments, including shy, anxious, fearful, energetic, and more independent animals. I pay close attention to body language and behavior so I can recognize when a pet is comfortable, overwhelmed, nervous, or needs space. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or visiting a client’s home, I will respect their routines, boundaries, environment, and individual needs. My goal is to provide calm, attentive, compassionate care while giving owners peace of mind that their pets are safe and well cared for.

“Brooke is awesome and truly goes above and beyond. We came home to our babies feeling happy and relaxed instead of anxious like they can be when we’ve been gone. Book her today!”

About: I've been taking care of pets since I was younger. I have had cats, dogs and tarantulas, so I am used to a wide range of animals. I live alone and work a typical 9-5 job as an attorney in town, and I do not have any pets of my own. I always pet-sit for my friends' cats and dogs, so I would love to do it with Rover. I love to play games with the animals to keep them stimulated. I also enjoy walking animals and simply being with them. I am very good with both dogs and cats.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs big and small since i was 16! Whether it be going on walks, bathing them or just watching them! I’ve always had a love for animals, caring for them brings me joy! I’m working a full time! This is something I like to do any time I can on the side! I’m willing to work with anyone if they will work with me with my crazy work schedule. I’ll make room for taking care of anyone’s furry babies! I have a fenced in yard with a puppy, I make sure there isn’t anything harmful on the floor or in reach, there’s plenty of space and toys!

“We couldn’t have been happier with Elizabeth! She was dependable, kind, and patient with our cat. It gave us great comfort as we traveled and we loved getting her pictures. She was very adept at giving our cat medication which is not easy! We would not hesitate to recommend her and would definitely use her services again.”

Susie T.

“My little guy has really bad anxiety 😥 So do I leaving him for a extended period of time Angela helped him so much. She went the extra mile to keep him calm. He looked so happy in the report cards. I definitely made the right choice hiring her. You could see he was very glad to see her every time she came to care for him and hang out with him. I will definitely hire her again for future trips.”

“Aspen was great with Nash. She was very communicative and thorough during her time with him. I will definitely be booking her again.”

About: I've been pet sitting for as many as 3 animals at a time since I was 12, I specialize in making pets feel cared for and following even complex instructions to the letter! I love cats and dogs of all sizes and energies. I really value putting in that extra effort to make a pet feel cared for and keeping a house tidy and safe. I can send updates every visit and value clear communication above all else. I work part-time as a stagehand with very flexible hours, often late nights, so my days are largely open for looking after whatever creatures come my way! I try to foster an environment of calm in any home I visit and am happy to work with a rowdier pup! I'm vigilant about potential hazards and have no problem keeping track of things like medicines, allergies or any other extras to consider.

“awesome dog sitter!”

About: I am an animal lover and have over 33 years of experience! I grew up having dogs and cats. I have had 3 of my own dogs and 2 cats, 4 of which were strays. I have trained all of my furry friends and even helped my Boston Terrier Mix have puppies. I have also cared for elderly pets and so I understand what it takes to give them the love and treatment they need in their more frail years. I currently have very flexible hours and can take care of your furry friend whenever you need me. I had a career in Nursing, but I am currently not practicing so I am free to help you out with your needs. I am very reliable and trustworthy. I have always had pets in my home, but take great pride in my home being well cared for and clean. I would ensure your home would be taken care of in the same way while looking after your pets. Whether it is my home or yours, or taking your pets for a walk, I will be respectful and ensure your pet and your home is well looked after.

“Darian really went above and beyond. I was so stressed and worried because my dog can sometimes take a minute to warm up to new people. Overall a great experience and would recommend him to anyone!”

About: I’ve helped family members take care of dogs by walking and bathing when needed. I’ve always loved being around dogs all my life as I grew up around them and worked in pet stores since 2022. I am currently working full time but the earliest i can stop by is 8 am and the latest being 9:30 at night if needed. I am comfortable with working with any restrictions required by owner, even if it means crating the animal, or any dieting the animal may have. I am also CPR certified through the American Red Cross, i can also provide proof of certification.

About: I have cared for just about every animal type - dogs, cats, rodents, fish, and a few exotic reptiles and amphibians. In that scope, I’ve managed surprise litters, caring for young and senior pets with all their needs. I’m currently working from home, so my schedule is very flexible. I will have my elementary age kids and our senior dog with me every other week, and we’re unfortunately allergic to cats. I have a large fenced in yard, plus my own dog every other week. She is a bit picky about other dogs depending on their size, age, and personality.
