1. Mandy S.

“I highly recommend Mandy to others! She is flexible, timely, and responsible. Mandy treated my dogs as though they were her own & didn’t hesitate to go above and beyond for them. She followed their regimen to perfection & wasn’t scared to ask questions. Mandy is a great fit for our 4 legged friends!”


2. Rachel R.
“Rachel dogsat my pitbull Jesse for a week. She asked me how often I like updates or check ins. That was great. I was worried hiring someone online, but the house looked better than when I left. Nothing was taken. She scuffed my vacuum but was honest and offered to get me a new one, but I don't care about a little mark on a vacuum. She took good care of Jesse, and the cleaning was an extra that was great. Would recommend.”


3. Christina C.
“I would highly recommend Christina to anyone who is looking for a pet sitter and wants to have a kind, responsible, and knowledgeable person to care for their pets while they're away and be able to enjoy their time off without having to worry about their pets, as they would be in safe and very well cared for.”


4. Alicia A.
About: I will be on time -probably early- most of the time. I will always do the best I can and I'll treat your dog with respect. I'm walked friends and neighbors' dogs before. I love all types of dogs no matter what size. I will make it look as though I never was even there. I'll also play with the more active dogs so they won't have as much energy after I leave. I work at nights so I can swing by almost anytime and I'm also self employed so my schedule is pretty flexible and can go while working if needed. I can go to your house and take care of your pets at your home and will follow any instructions left for me to follow.


5. Autumn K.
“Communication is key, and Autumn Klein (Atom) nailed it. Kudos! I left detailed instructions that they followed as I want things done MY way. I received updates and photos that kept me informed and reassured while I was away. It was clear that my pets were happy and well-cared for. I couldn't have asked for a more attentive and communicative pet sitter. Thank you, Autumn, for your outstanding pet sitting.”

About: I have taken care of neighbors’ pets many times to brush, feed, scoop, etc and we have 4 cats of our own! I absolutely love animals of all kinds and there are stories of my excited reactions to dogs on the street while I was in a stroller :) I am a college student who is off for the summer; I start the new semester Sep 3rd. I am out of town the 19th-25th. I will adjust to your home and animal’s needs, taking great care and ensuring all play is safe play, wherever we are, walking or at home.


8. Kylie C.
“I can't say enough great things about Kylie and the care she provides for my dog Charlie. Kylie cares for my dog as if it were her own. She is extremely professional, responsible, and caring. She is very flexible and reliable and has made my life much easier. I highly recommend Kylie to anyone looking for a dog walking service.”

10. Grace B.
About: I’ve been raised with pets as long as I can remember. I was raised on a farm in Missouri. My home back in Missouri I left has 6 dogs (ranging from 2 search and rescue German shepherds to my 13 year old papillon), a cat, 2 goats, lots of chickens, and 6 ducks. Pets have always been in my life. I currently have my one and a half year old cat with me. I would love to take care of your pets because I understand how important they are:) I graduated from college in May, so I am currently on summer break and have all the time in the world to stay with your babies:) As someone who has always had a pet and gone to pets when I am sad, I seek to understand whatever pet I have. It is most important for me to understand the pet so I can know the wants, needs, or dislikes your pet wants.


11. Melinda O.
About: As a life-long lover of animals, I’ve taken care of my own cats, dogs, horses, birds and other small animals my whole life. I have recently begun pet sitting for others and find that I really enjoy the opportunity to meet and spend time with other people’s pets. I’m currently semi-retired, so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets while you are away. I’d love to keep them company and make sure they don’t miss any meals while you are away. I will spend time with your pets in your home and send you daily photos so you can see how they are doing while you are away.


12. Shannon C.
“Shannon is a loving and caring animal lover with a great deal of animal care experience. She has an absolute warmth that is detected immediately by all animals so that they are comfortable in her presence. She is responsible and great with follow up in the event you have any questions or concerns. I highly recommend Shannon as an animal care sitter and your furry friend will guaranteed love her :-) ”


13. Marielle F.
About: HOME FULL TIME! Nail trims available during boarding or day care For an extra $10 per dog! Hi everyone! I’m Marielle! I’m very experienced with dogs especially but cats too! I’ve done just about every job you can do with animals, from managing a doggy day care, to working in grooming salon, to being a veterinary assistant. I have worked with animals professionally for 8 years and counting! I do have a few pets of my own right now, I have an Italian greyhound who is just my baby and a cat Theo who pretty much leaves all the dogs alone. I have no problem with any breed or any size dog, and know how to handle timid and anxious animals as well. I am extremely loving and treat every animal as if they were my own! Right now, I do not have a fenced in yard but I do take dogs on walks 3 times a day plus potty breaks as often as they need. I am home full-time so my days revolve around the dogs. Whatever their schedule is is no problem for me! I will adjust anything I have going on to meet the dogs schedules. I treat every animal as if they were my own. Safety wise I do prefer if they can be crated for a few hours when I am not home as some animals can get anxious in new places and start getting into things that they shouldn’t and potentially harm themselves. I do not have a fenced in yard at the moment. I still take dogs out for potty breaks and walks 3 times a day.




14. Leah H.
“Leah sat for my dog Dexter and she was fantastic. She kept me updated with multiple photos and texts. I would highly recommend Leah and will definitely be booking with her again.”


15. Lauren L.

16. Angelica M.
About: I've loved and had a few dogs during my lifetime. I've since lost them years ago, but my love for them will never die. I have a big heart and would love to share the love. My daughter is especially excited when she sees dogs or cats. We have a few stray cats around our building and she loves to see them. She is the only child and having pets around would be such a entertainment booster. Shes 8 so she's definitely aware of them. Plus we could get more exercise!! Win win for everyone. Your pet will be well cared for and anything special they may need will be taken care of as long as we're instructed to do so. I can't wait to see your fur baby soon!


17. Abbi D.
“I have known Abbi for a long time and she has always loved being around animals. She has grown up with dogs, cats, chickens, ducks, a chincilla, etc and she has loved them all and has a big heart for all animals. I know she is looking forward to loving on more animals in the future!”


18. Natalie L.
“Natalie is a true animal lover, and takes great care of her cat Felix and her family’s three rescue dogs. She always goes the extra mile to make her pets happy, from taking Felix on a walk in his cat stroller to celebrating her dogs’ birthday with special pet friendly treats! She is very reliable, caring, and great with both cats and dogs.”


19. William A.
About: I have had pets all my life. Everything from exotics to cats and dogs. I can also help with sick or injured pets I used to teach a class in pet first aid and cpr. I will make sure your furbaby is happy, healthy, and you will have a piece of mind knowing your furbaby is in good hands I don’t work that much so it shouldn’t be a problem. I work in critical care and was trained to do emergency care on dogs. If your pet has medical issues this is the best place for them. I have a fenced dog enclosure. And they have free roam of the house. Accidents happen so we don’t worry about it just clean it up and let them have a great day.

Having him around has been a great relief for our family in some difficult situations, he is experienced and capable even in stressful circumstances. He is kind, friendly, communicative, and most importantly our dogs really love him! They are excited to see him every time.”
