“Kate was amazing. Our kitties were well taken care of while we were away on vacation. She left a nice thank you note for when we got back and was very friendly and professional to work with. Would book again.”


“I needed recurring visits & Arrica was more than helpful with my dog! She truly saw my dog as her own & took wonderful care of him. Will be booking with her again if I need someone to drop in on him!”


“Jacki was great! I work morning to evening so it was so great to have someone come hang out with my doggy!! She took him on a walk and played with him; made him feel loved!! She even sent me photo updates. Will be booking with her asap again!!!”


“This was my first time using Rover and Mya made the experience amazing! I will definitely be using her again. My dog is very shy and not good with strangers but Mya took her time to be patient and calming. My dog started warming up to her very fast and I belive dogs have a good judge of character ;)”


“Maggie has been excellent with Oliver. She even checked to make sure he was up to date on his tick prevention as some of the grass is tall. One walk after it had rained she dried him off prior to the end of her visit. I would definitely recommend her for all your fur babies!!!”


“Absolutely amazing! I couldn’t recommend Cheyenne more. She’s caring thoughtful and has amazing attention to detail. My one baby cat was more social with her than I’m used to seeing with others! I absolutely plan on booking with her again! Thank you again Cheyenne!!”


About: I've been around dogs my whole life even before I had one of my own to take care of. As far back as I can remember, I was crawling around after my grandpa's dog. . We got what I can remember being our first real family dog when I was eleven. She was a German shepherd named Pepper, and she stayed with us until the end. The next dog that made an impact wasn't meant to be mine,but my mom's. It was this shy little Papillion that had been previously abused. It thought it was hiding from you in obvious places. That dog ended up choosing me and we many wonderful years together. This dog was with me past what is senior years, and I gave him the best care that I could provide for him. Recently, we took in a stray senior dog that we provide care for, so be sure that you can reach out and request my help. I 'm comfortable with large and small dogs. I work during the days so I while I mostly show availability during the weekends I could be open to evening if something was needed just during that time frame. In our home we have an indoor cat and 2 large breed dogs. The newest addition to out house is an old lady who gets a little grumpy with others which is why even though we have a nice fence for dogs to play in I 'm hesitant to invite your over for now. I like to have fun with my pets encouraging play and snuggles, positive reinforcement.

“Delaney was great with my dog, she made sure to meet him before letting him out for the days I needed help, which I really appreciated. She was great with communication and with my dog. I am thankful and definitely recommend!”

About: Ive owned dogs my entire life up until my last dog passed, since then I have decided to take care of dogs when people need someone they can trust. I love all dogs and have experience with senior dogs as well as dogs who have seizures and/or have to take medication. I work in the healthcare field, I only work 3 days a week (Monday, Wednesday, and Friday) I do work 12-14 hour shifts but if I have enough time I can request to leave early to be able to go home on breaks to care for your babies. I work from 4am- around 3pm, I am available to drop in to check on your pet after work and/or take your pet on a walk and give them some exercise. I do not offer in home sitting due to having two cats of my own, I do not want the chance of any animal getting stressed out. I like to come by before you leave to get a layout of everything and learn your pets routine so that they can still have a sense of normalcy while you are gone.

About: My name is Kayla Roy. I’m 25 year old new mom with 2 dogs of my own. Growing up, I don’t remember a childhood memory where there wasn’t a dog or some sort of pet involved. To me, pets are just as much as family as a human. They bring so much love and joy to a home and deserve the world. I am very motherly and nurturing and love to ensure both the pets and their family feel comfortable and loved through the care I provide. My degree is in communications so naturally it is one of my strong suits and I will ensure you as well as anyone else is in the loop with ample detail. I’m comfortable with dogs including puppies to senior dogs - I’ve cared for them all! I am currently working full time as well as a full time mom, mornings and afternoons during the week can be hectic, but I am open most evenings and all weekend hours. I can make lunch time work most days I just need notice in advanced. My dogs are like my children. They have a large fenced in backyard where they can run and play not to mention a boat load of toys and treats as well as being snuggled. They’re allowed on furniture and go on walks often. We have introduced them to our baby and they are absolutely in love. Just because we had a baby doesn’t mean they get pushed to the wayside.


About: Hi, I am Tricia and i have had dogs all my life. I love pets very much and have worked at local animal shelters. Working in animal welfare has graced me with all sorts of experience with all types of animal behaviors and personalities. I also have lots of animal medical experience. I have worked with animals with aggression, separation anxiety, seizures, deaf, shy and fearful and much more. I can also medicate animals in any way needed. I am experienced in giving shots and pilling animals. Basic training is something I like to work on with all animals as I believe it helps them not only build their confidence but also keeps their mind busy and wears them out! Please let me know if I can help you out! I am currently working from home meaning I can spend tons of time with your pups staying at my home! We also love to go get pup cups often! I have a fenced yard and dogs that also love other dogs. My house is centered around dogs with lots of comfy beds, toys and other fun stuff!

About: I personally have had a lot of pets that have been properly loved and taken care of by me all of my life, this will be a great opportunity! I’m currently out of a job so this will be a great opportunity for a side job! I’m home most of the time with my fur babies so being with yours makes all the better! I am very good when it comes to learning the animals language and will give and get what they need! I am very active when it comes to pets!

“Roxanne is an amazing sitter! She was available last minute when another sitter fell through and assured me my kitty would be in good hands! She did a fantastic job, in the future, I’ll book her every time I leave town!”


“Caitlin was wonderful at taking care of my two spoiled enormous dogs! This is the first time we've used a pet sitter and we will be using Caitlin's services in the future. The dogs were more relaxed being at home and frankly I was relaxed on vacation. She gave them medicine they needed and kept us updated with lots of pics and it was truly a great experience.”

“Going out of town on vacations or family event's, wondering who could possibly take care of your sweet and cuddly furry family member to your reptile buddy while you're away can be overwhelming. Samantha, made us feel very at ease when she watched over ours. She makes sure they're very well seen after while we are awhile, which sets both our minds as well as my kid's minds at ease. HIGHLY recommend!”

Aaliyah L.
“Aaliyah is trusting, caring person who loves all animals. I have used Aaliyah several times and at the last minute. Aaliyah comes to let my dog out while I’m at work. She takes him out to potty, feeds him, plays with him and exercise time. She also watched him for a week at my home while I was on a vacation. I am pleased with how she cared for my puppy while gone and my home. Very trusting and caring. I would definitely recommend Aaliyah services to anyone.”
