Cheryl did great with all of our fur babies! Even with the puppy being apprehensive she stuck it out until he got comfortable with her. I love that she was consistant with sending pictures!

This was the first time I had a sitter in my home. I was anxious but I knew my sweet dog, Pepper, would be more comfortable and easy at home. Pepper was very comfortable even sleeping in bed with Samantha. Plants were watered and she even made my bed for me as I was arriving home late. I have already booked her again. I would have preferred more communication and pics especially on that first day.

Jennifer stayed four nights with my three dogs. She was responsive and provided regular updates and photos. My pets were happy and well cared for, and my home was nice and clean when I returned. I definitely will use her again in the future!

About: Looking for a compassionate, reliable critter sitter with strong communication skills and extensive animal experience? I’d love to help! I regularly dog sit for friends, neighbors, and clients, and I also volunteer at a local county animal shelter as a dog walker. Through this work, I’ve received hours of formal training and am well-versed in dog behavior, enrichment, handling techniques, and training methods. As the guardian of three rescue dogs, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pet. Here are three reasons I’d be a great fit as your sitter: 1. Animal Advocacy: My shelter work has given me hands-on experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. 2. Active & Capable: I live an active lifestyle and enjoy running, strength training, and yoga - so I’m comfortable handling high energy dogs or strong pullers. 3. Compassionate Care: I treat every dog with patience, respect, and kindness, ensuring they feel safe and loved while you’re away. I'm currently working full-time remotely. Having the flexibility to work from anywhere has offered my opportunities to help look after neighbors, friends, and clients beloved four legged friends while they are away. Saturdays and Sundays are completely open. Before taking on a new client, I schedule a phone or in-person meet-and-greet with two key goals in mind: 1. **Understanding Your Pet’s Needs** I take time to learn about your pet’s personality, preferences, and routines—including likes, potential stress triggers, dietary needs, and any training or behaviors you’re currently working on. This allows me to provide consistent, personalized care that helps your pet feel safe and comfortable. 2. **Building Trust and Clear Communication with You** My priority is giving you peace of mind. I’m highly responsive and easy to reach, so you can feel confident knowing I’m always available if you have questions or need updates. After each visit, I provide detailed check-ins with photos and notes so you always know how your pet is doing.

Carol was great. Apollo has severe anxiety during thunderstorms and she took care of him. Gave him his medication and cuddled with him to make him feel safe. She played with him and took him on short walks. She asked questions when needed and sent us pictures daily. I highly recommend Carol. She treated Apollo like he was her own. We already have her booked for a second time.

Jessica was wonderful. This was our first experience with a sitter, so I was nervous. She exceeded all of my expectations. Jessica answered all of my questions, was here when she said she would be, played with Bear, took him on nice long walks, sent lots of pictures, and left the house in perfect condition. Thank you so much! We will absolutely have Jessica sit for us again.

About: I’ve taken care of pets since the age of 3, growing up as a dog owner with a couple cats at a time, as well. I love written instructions and schedules to follow for feeding and potty time and am attentive to detail. I can send photo and video updates as often as requested. I’m currently working part time with some flexibility built in to help fur baby parents with pet care. Let’s come up with a schedule that meets your needs! I can offer overnight stays if needed and extra time spent with pets on top of feedings, walks, treats, and toilet times. The more details you provide about what you need, the better. I’ll keep things tidy for your return, too.

Patty was great with our boy Sam. She was patient with him which helped a lot because he is so skittish and afraid of everything. We appreciate that she was willing to sit on short notice and have already asked her to sit when we go away in August. We definitely recommend her as a pet sitter.

Carter took great care of my boys. They aren’t the easiest (one doesn’t like strangers or other dogs and the other has separation anxiety and both are big and needy) but from the moment he met them, they were buddies. He left the house in clean and kept me informed on how they were doing while I was away. Will definitely book with him again and we are so thankful we found him.

About: I've spent my entire life surrounded by animals. Cats, dogs, bunnies, and fish. You name it! It was like growing up with LOTS of brothers and sisters! Even my first job was in the animal field - at a petting farm :D. Animals are truly the best therapists, friends, and snugglers. I even got my pet first aid certification. Not only for my pets, but for yours too! I currently have a part time job so I have tons of extra play time for your babies. my availability is pretty open and flexible. So feel free to reach out if you have any questions or want to work something out! I like to do pet sitting in my clients home so the animals can be in a familiar environment. Many fur babies find themselves anxious when their owners go away. So to minimize that fear, I like to have them in their natural environment with all the sounds, smells, and surroundings they're used to. I also like to do meet and greets ahead of time to make sure all parties are fully comfortable and assured! :)

We loved having Kelcey pet sit our Pup Zena. She gave Zena all the special care that she needed with being an older dog. When Zena didn’t want to go out after a long day, Kelcey picked her up and got her outside. She gave her a ton of loving and is very trustworthy. Will definitely book again as long as we still have Zena. Thank you again, The Gregory’s

About: I approach all walks of life with an open heart and love. Because of this I believe all critters seek out my affections and makes for fun interactions. I am currently at a cross road in life and looking for new situations that are more fulfilling. I absolutely enjoy spending my time with four legged friends. I have a mostly private fenced in yard with plenty of room for running and playing. I also can provide crates and segregated spots for our friends that need their own space or maybe a little to shy.

Wonderful!! Can't say enough good stuff about Tina. She's a sweetheart and loved my Bernie and she loved Tina. They had a good day with no issues so I was able to travel to Jacksonville for Dr appointments. Tina arrived bright and early ask planned and was very patient about our long day away. Bernie, Mom & Dad love Tina E!

Cheryl is awesome! We took our first trip without our 1 year old pup and he couldn't have been in better hands. The first time we met her our pup was in love. He actually laid by the front door to block her from leaving. He is pretty choosy about who he wants hanging around, but he took to Cheryl right away. She gave him plenty of exercise and snuggles. Also, he is very lean and can be finicky with food. We were worried he wouldn't eat but that wasn't a problem...total win! Not only did she take good care of our furry family member, she also took good care of our home. She is trustworthy and kind. Our pup spent the day after we got home looking for her. It was very sweet. We look forward to seeing Cheryl again.

I would give Debbie more stars if available. We had her house sit for our dog. She went above and beyond. I'm not sure our dog even missed us, and I think our house was cleaner than we left it. I feel very secure in leaving our dog with Debbie. It makes traveling so much easier for us to know there is someone out there that treats our dog as good or even better than we do. Thank you Debbie We will see you again.
