“We had a family emergency and needed to travel suddenly. Kristin responded so quickly when we asked if she was available, made time to come meet the cats the next day and go over the routine, and was great with the cats while we were gone. Both cats need medication and one is skittish enough that sometimes that can be challenging with new people/cat sitters, but she seemed to do great with Kristin! Photos and notes from each visit helped a lot too, knowing that the cats were doing well helped mitigate some of the stress.”

About: I’ve cared for my dog(s) at home for the past 13 years: walking, feeding, bathing and playing with them on a regular basis. I have also volunteered at a cat and dog shelter for the past 6 years, caring for rescued animals. I am available for pet care most weekdays and some weekends! I’ll always make sure to spend as much time as you request with your dog/cat. I am sure to provide one-on-one attention with your pet(s), accommodating to their routines and your preferences. Whether your pet is more or less active, I look forward to caring for them and meeting them at their level!

“Lindsay S. saved the day! She came over on only 2 days notice & on one of the hottest days of the year. We had to keep our dog inside; Lindsay S. was prompt in arriving at his "dinnertime" to let him out, feed him & keep him company for the drop-in visit. She took great care with him & then sent photos on her own accord. That put our minds at ease until we could get home a few hours later. Well worth the (very affordable) fee & we will reach out to her again in the future, for sure! Thanks Lindsay S.!”

“Pamela is amazing with dogs. Caring, compassionate, loving and provides excellent care. You really can’t ask for a better care giver for furry family! Would recommend hands down and plan to rehire.”

About: I have always had dogs and cats growing up, which peaked my interest in animal care. In high school I worked as a kennel technician at a boarding kennel and gained an internship at the local veterinary office. now in college, I am studying animal science to hopefully get a degree in veterinary medicine, and continue to pet sit for my friends and family including both cats and dogs. I'm currently home from college for the summer, and home most of the time! I do have a car, and am available almost any time of the day. I have pets in my home that are not socialized, so I would not be able to pet sit in my own home, but I am happy to make the trip to the comfort of their own home.

About: Hi, my name is Mindy! I have been caring for pets ever since I was a kid, when I began sitting and walking neighbors and family friends' dogs. So far I've raised puppies, cared for senior dogs, and everything in between. I'm sure to spoil and love your furry friend as if they were my own- while I don't currently have a pet of my own, I grew up caring for two geckos (shout out to Coco and Kiki), and I've fostered dogs in the past as well. I provide walks, drop-ins and house-sitting services. I also have extensive experience with fast walkers and dogs who pull. I'm typically available on weeknights and weekends. I am more than happy to help out with house sitting if you're going on a trip or with any additional afternoon/evening needs. I'll spend time with your pets doing their favorite activities, whether that's playing out back, going on a walk, or just getting some cuddles in. I use positive reinforcement of all kinds- a little extra praise, some treats, and plenty of ear scratches!

“Natalie watched our dogs while we were on a 2 week trip. She kept us updated and 3x daily photos of our pups. So glad she could take care of them 🐶”

Jennifer B.

“Kristen watched our 4 kitties for an extended weekend. She did a fantastic job. She was prompt each visit and did just as we requested. I will definitely use Kristen again in the future.”

About: I love dogs and cats and treat them like family. I hope to be a care giver that pays close attention to detail and keeps your pet safe at all times. Daycare: They will be at my house with my dog all day. I will be home with them and will play, feed, give water and take on walks through out the day. If the heat index is above 85 degrees, the walk will be shortened at my discretion I work remote so I am available during the day to spend time with your pet. I can take them on walks during the day as well I have a fenced in yard and 1 friendly dog. His name is Cosmo and he is a Basset Hound/Beagle mix. I always keep an eye on him

About: I am reliable and trustworthy! I have worked closely with families for 5 + years, walking their dogs daily and house sitting and caring for their beloved pets while the owners traveled. I am available daily, mornings, afternoons and evenings, I just ask for 24-hr notice so I can plan accordingly! I am happy to walk them for atleast 15-20 minutes so they can stretch their legs and get out some energy! I also am happy to feed them for their routine meals if you are unable to do so. I am comfortable walking your dog if there is a safe space to do so, or playing with them in your fenced in yard, it is what you are comfortable with.

“Natalie was great! Easy to communicate with and sent a nice pic of Lindy. :-)”

Mara T.

“Allena did a great job taking care of my 3 cats. She sent pictures and reports every day. Would definitely use her again.”

About: Animals have always been part of my life and caring for them comes naturally to me. I currently have two black cats who are my favorite girls. I’ve looked after everything from energetic puppies to older pets needing a gentler touch. Friends and family regularly rely on me for pet support because they know I’m responsible, kind, and truly pay attention to each pet’s needs. My goal is to always make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away! I’m available to help with morning, afternoon, or evening visits as well as weekends. I am available for overnight stays on a case by case basis! I pay attention to detail and will get to know and love your pet! I will always respect your space as if it was my own. I am in the process of getting settled from moving and currently unable to accept pets at my home.

“Natalia was wonderful!!! She took such great care of our little girl, Scarlett, and we would not hesitate to use her again… she sent tons of pictures… lots of updates… we loved her?”

Debra B.

“This was our first time using a dog sitter and I have to say, I was a little nervous about leaving our dogs...but there was no need, Liz was great! She was very communicative, sent pictures for every visit and let us know how the dogs were doing throughout the weekend. I'm really excited to have found someone to watch our dogs when we are away!!”

“Erin went above and beyond. Received pictures and videos daily. I will use her and recommend her to anyone in need of her services.”

About: I’ve groomed dogs for 7 years, including running a boarding and grooming facility for 3 of those years. I’ve also trained dogs for the past 6 years. Most recently, I’ve spent the last year working at a veterinary clinic, gaining hands-on experience with both dogs and cats. My well-rounded background in grooming, training, boarding, and veterinary care ensures every pet receives knowledgeable, attentive, and compassionate care. My life revolves around my passion for caring for animals and helping people build peaceful, thriving relationships with their dogs. My schedule can vary week to week and month to month based on training sessions, pet care appointments, and client needs. To ensure the best possible care and planning, I kindly ask that you provide as much advance notice as possible so I can reserve time on my calendar for you and your pet. I care for pets in their own homes, providing a familiar and comfortable environment. Safety is always my top priority. I ensure all gear is secure and properly fitted, and I follow any rules or guidelines you provide. On walks, I inspect collars and leashes for fit and condition. If weather conditions are unsafe, I switch to safe, engaging indoor activities to meet your dog’s mental and physical needs. You can trust that your pet is cared for as my own.

About: I've worked with animals most of my life! I have raised trained and shown dogs. 40 years in the Veterinary Field , now retired, and rescues. I Have worked with and owned birds, rodents, reptiles, and aquatics. (fish salamanders, turtles and I even own an Axolotle!) Your pets will be well cared for and loved, as they are all a part of who I am. In your home, I will also not only clean up after myself, but water your plants, collect your mail, and fill bird feeders if needed. I am retired, so I have alot of free time. I will need to have a little time, occasionally, if I stay in your home, to run an errand, to the store, appointment, or a few hours of charity work, but that's all, the rest of the time will be given to your pets needs. And they will not be alone for extended hours. When I am in your home, I will need some time daily to run errands if needed. Essentially, I will do my best to stick to your pets normal routine, with a little extra spoiling and play time if allowed. No dog will be allowed off lead, when leaving house, unless you have good fencing and request it. All cats must remain indoors, unless the cat is specifically out door cat. I will need a written exclusion if it is. All caged animals must have clean and proper caging, depending on needs and length of stay, I can clean them for you. Aquatics shall be the same, I can change filters and treat, but not water changes.
