“Danielle was amazing with our animals! She was super flexible with our last minute plans and was fast to respond to texts. We also enjoyed the several pictures we received while we were away. We will definitely use her again in the future!”


“Kristin was wonderful with my dog and two cats. I even added two addition cats to her duties and she was great with that. She stayed overnight with them and sent updates throughout her day. I will definitely be calling her again. It was nice knowing my babies were in their own home and happy.”



“Alex took such great care of our little Olive! He sent lots of photos and updates, and we felt completely at ease knowing Olive was so well cared for. Alex went above and beyond making sure Olive was content! Alex stayed overnight with Olive and also spent lots of time with her during the days. Olive looks forward to Alex’s next stay!!”


About: I have taken care of a variety of animals, my own and others included, since as far back as 8 years old. I've always enjoyed taking care of animals of all shapes, sizes, and ages and it makes my heart happy to see my kids following in those footsteps as they get older as well. I have a husband of almost 10 years, which will occasionally be helping with some of the pet care, and we have 2 kids (ages 3 and 8) so you know your animals will get plenty of cuddles and play time. We all enjoy and love your pets like our own! Our pets of our own include chickens which are all kept inside of a fenced in area. We live on roughly 3 acres of "unfenced land" at the end of our paved neighborhood road. Included in that are a few scenic trails through the woods on our property, so that means we have plenty of space for your fur babies to have some play time outside in the yard, and walks through the neighborhood/trails for exploration, exercise, and relaxation throughout the day! We are here with open arms ready to care for your sweet babies and willing to learn about each of their individual needs to make sure we make them and you feel comfortable and part of our family in the process! From boarding overnight, to drop-in visits when you can't be there, to random play visits/walking your fur babies, or even meeting/helping you with multiple animals' vet visits..... No matter the job or type of animal, give us a try and you won't be disappointed! We can't wait to hear from you and to make you part of the fam! I am a full time stay-at-home mom/wife so I have plenty of time to devote to your fur babies to make sure they get all the love, care, and attention they deserve for whatever the job you may need for them! Depending on size, your pets are housed inside our home (when staying overnight with us) as one of the family. We have plenty of crates inside our house for individual sleeping spaces. We also use baby gates throughout the house to separate areas of our house so animals can be separated in their own spaces if and when needed. I always communicate quickly with clients and make sure to send lots of pictures to assure them of their pets experience and exceptional care with my family and I. I also provide each animal with an apple air tag just as a safety precaution when they are in my care for mine and my clients peace of mind.

“Wonderful sitters! Joyce and her husband took such good care of our 4 dogs. We were really happy that they were able to come to our home multiple times per day in order to feed water and play with our 4 sweethearts. And Joyce was able to take 1 dog to the vet to look at an injury that occurred PRIOR to her starting; the dogs paw got caught in something right before we were scheduled to leave for vacation. Luckily, his paw was fine. I cannot say enough about how pleased we were and are with the house/pet sitting by Joyce!”

About: I grew up taking care of all different breeds of dogs, and there’s nothing else I’d rather do! I started out caring for my own, then I started caring for my family’s and friend’s pets too. My experience ranges from caring for puppies and senior dogs. I had a 14 year old lab that I had to provide senior care on, from feeding by hand, cleaning her up, and administering medicine. I am working full time at the moment but am more than excited to spend my days off with your fur babies! As of right now I am available most weekends, and nights. I care for my dogs by letting them run around during the day, I have a huge yard with plenty of space. At night my dogs like to sleep in their crate.

About: With dogs and cats as part of my family since childhood, I’ve developed a deep love and understanding for our furry friends. I’ve happily pet sat and dog walked many times, making sure each pet feels cared for and cherished. My experience as a kennel assistant at a busy boarding facility taught me valuable skills in pet care and medical treatment, ensuring every animal’s health and happiness. I also worked at a rescue, where I cared for dogs and cats of various breeds—feeding, grooming, and supporting those who had faced tough times, helping them on their journey to loving furever homes. Whether it’s dog walking, cat and dog sitting, or quick check-ins, I bring passion, kindness, and plenty of experience to every visit, making sure your pets feel safe, loved, and joyful while you’re away. I'm currently on summer break from college so I would be available during the week from 9am-7pm. And for long-term and weekend sittings with notice. When caring for pets in my client’s home, safety, trust, and environment are my top priorities. Having grown up with dogs and cats, and with hands-on experience working in a kennel and animal rescue, I understand the importance of creating a calm, secure space where pets feel comfortable and loved. I always follow each pet’s unique routines, including feeding, walking, and playtime, to maintain their familiar environment and reduce stress. My background in medical care and rescue taught me to be attentive to any health needs or behavioral cues, ensuring prompt and gentle responses. Building trust comes naturally by being consistent, patient, and respectful of each pet’s personality—whether it’s a playful kitten or a senior dog. I treat every home as if it were my care while providing compassionate care that keeps pets safe, happy, and relaxed while their family is away.
