I felt completely at ease knowing my dogs were in such good hands. Highly recommend Alex for anyone looking for a caring and dependable dog sitter!”


“Jessica really helped me out of a bind. She offered to com to my home to meet Zoey at 9 pm the night before a trip when another sitter flaked out on me. She stayed at my home and everything was in place when I arrived home. Would definitely use her again!”


About: I’ve been taking care of my senior dog for 8 years and have cared for many dogs in my neighborhood as well as social circle. Experienced in large and small dogs. I currently live with one cat (16) and one dog (13) so caring for pets is something i do every day! Scooping poop and cleaning hairballs is just a normal weekday. In my home both of my pets are cared for with love and kindness and so will yours! My dog gets multiple walks a week and CBD gummies, my cat gets supervised outside time! I’m willing to do anything for your pets because i would do the same for mine!

“Dawn was great!! My pets were obviously very well cared for :) My pup has some special needs and she was on top of it and sent plenty of updates and pics to ease my mind as this was the first time we’ve left our dog with anyone since she had her amputation back in September. I didn’t worry about a thing and was able to enjoy a long weekend away knowing my pup was well attended to. Will definitely use Dawn again :)”


“Shea and Nicole were so great. I would absolutely recommend them. They were able to do a last minute booking with us and were very communicative. They took the pups on many walks and played lots of ball in the backyard!! Loved all the pictures they sent too.”


About: I have worked as an animal sitter since graduating from college in 2010. We lost our two adopted dogs this year at the ripe old ages of 17 and 14 and have not brought any new indoor pets into our home. I have volunteered with animals and worked in a veterinary setting with large animals (horses mostly!) I graduated with a degree in animal sciences. I am well equipped for special needs dogs with a large dog stroller and wheelchair! I work outside of the home 4 days a week and am home Friday through Sunday to spend as much time with your pet as they need! I love to run, so if you have a high-energy dog, then reach out to me! We can wear each other out. Our home is dog friendly with a large fenced in yard with indoor access for dogs that prefer to make their own indoor/outdoor schedule. We love to have pups and cats snuggle on the couch with us or play in our large yard. We have farm animals, lots of new smells and places to explore!

“Sam was wonderful! She took great care of our 115 lb Leonberger and of our house while she stayed here. She was great at communicating with us and sending pictures along the way.”


“Meagan was fantastic! She took great care of our little guy, allowing us to take part in a family event without worrying. She was proactive in setting up a meet and greet a couple of days before and was prompt and kind. We'll be asking her back in the future for sure! Thanks Meagan:”


About: I have owned animals all my life and have plenty of enrichment activities- snuffle matts, snuffle balls, puzzle toys, regular toys, and a big yard to play in! I love animals and this is currently a full time job for me being a pet sitter and owner. I make my dog my life and we go for walks and adventures daily. I make a schedule for my own dog, which includes puzzle toys for breakfast, an afternoon walk or adventure, snuffle mats and balls for later, and plenty of cuddles throughout the day!

“We couldn’t be more grateful for the amazing care Trie provided for our 13-year-old Maltipoo. He has a tough time with separation anxiety and often struggles with eating when we're away, but Trie was absolutely incredible with him. She stayed by his side, took him on several walks a day, and knew exactly how to encourage him to eat. Trie sent us frequent updates and lots of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. For the first time, we were able to truly relax on vacation knowing our fur baby was in such loving hands. She is incredibly sweet, gentle, kind, and attentive — exactly the kind of person you’d hope to find to care for your pet. We’ll definitely be booking with her again for any future travel!”


“We have special needs very spoiled pups and Amanda was so loving and caring! It was our first trip where we weren’t in driving distance and I didn’t worry a bit! She went above when we had cat food issues. I can’t say enough great things about Amanda!”


“Took wonderful care of my dog and kept me updated on how things were going and sent pictures. Very responsive and responsible. Definitely would recommend Kimberly and will use her again!”


About: I’ve been around dogs my entire childhood, I have experience working with dogs at a boarding kennel and daycare. I own a great dane myself so size does not intimidate me. I have given dogs baths, nail trims, medication by mouth and medication by syringe, along with feeding and walking all types of dogs. I currently have a very open schedule, as of right now I am extremely flexible to dog sit or walk when requested. I can give your animal plenty of attention and care. I provide reliable and experienced dog care tailored to your pet’s needs. With a background in a boarding kennel and daycare, I’m comfortable handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments—including giant breeds like my own Great Dane. Whether your dog needs feeding, walks, playtime, or just companionship, I ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and well-cared for while you’re away.


About: Our family has been taking care of our own dogs as well as others for over 20 years. We are a loving family with a large private yard. And...Petey and Moxie love to play with other dogs! About this sitter: I have been working with dogs in various aspects of the pet care industry since I was a teenager. My primary focus is on Obedience Training and I specialize in providing personal professional care for your beloved pets. We treat them like family because after all they are family. Why I love dog sitting I grew up surrounded by the love of pets, we had dogs, cats, horses and a variety of other small pets. I started working with dogs 20 years ago and I have worked in many aspects of the pet care industry. From grooming to boarding to training and more I've done it all. My love for dogs is a core part of what makes me who I am. Meet my pets Petey, Moxie & Lola About my yard I have a large grassy yard and for now I have a 16 x 16 foot dog yard for fresh air and potty breaks but that will be added on to as soon as the yard is dry enough to add more fencing. My dog yard and the future space will have 6ft fences which are necessary to provide the best security for all dogs. My experience administering medication Yes. I can administer any medications your dog may need including injections.

About: I'm not like other pet sitters because I truly understand the unique needs of each pet. I take the time to build a bond with them, ensuring they feel comfortable and loved while you're away. My personalized approach means your pet will receive the best care and attention tailored just for them! Hi! I’m Tyler, me and my girlfriend have started this in hopes of making extra funds while in college. I have open availability almost all the time and pet care fits into my daily routine seamlessly. I start each day by feeding my pet and taking them for a morning walk, which energizes both of us. Throughout the day, I make sure to take breaks for playtime and cuddles, and I always set aside time in the evening for grooming and training. This way, pet care becomes a natural part of my day, enhancing my routine and keeping my pet happy and healthy! I care for pets in my home and my clients' homes by creating a safe and loving environment for them. At home, I ensure they have plenty of space to play and relax, along with regular feeding and exercise routines. When caring for pets in clients' homes, I follow their specific instructions and routines to maintain consistency, while also giving them lots of attention and affection. My goal is to make sure every pet feels comfortable and happy, no matter where they are!
