“Holly is an excellent pet sitter! She goes above and beyond and sent lots of pics and videos and updates. I didn’t worry at all with her. She won over even our most stubborn kitty, and not just fed them but also spent some time playing with them. I’d definitely recommend Holly!”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! Our dogs were comfortable, happy, and well loved while we were away. Kathryn was dependable and made the whole experience stress-free for us. We’re so thankful for the flexibility she granted us and we would gladly book again!”

About: I've been on and off pet sitting since I was seven. I grew up with all kinds of dogs with all kinds of needs. I'm especially good with blind, deaf and senior pups. This is a full time gig, so taking care of your animals is my top priority! Any time, any day, I will be there for your furry friends! I can walk your dogs multiple times a day if needed. Whatever you need I will happily do. Just say the word and I'm on it!
“Sarah was great with watching our puppy, Murphy! She was able to play with him, walk him and feed him while we were gone for the day. She is very responsive and messaged me with check ins throughout the visit. We will definitely be booking with her again!”

About: Hi my name is Aliyah and I’m a former zookeeper at Busch Gardens. I’ve worked with a wide range of different animal of various ages and medical needs. I look forward to putting my keeper skills to use and helping you take care of your furry friends! I recently left my job looking for a change of pace. So my schedule is pretty open in the meantime until I go to technical school. I usually start my day making sure my animals space and clean for them and making sure they have all their basic needs met. You know your the best and I will make sure to do whatever I can to make them happy and comfortable while you’re away.
“Bianca went above and beyond had two trips back to back and one last minute and she said yes without hesitation. Communicative, attentive with my fur baby. Very recommended. I will definitely use her services again.”


“Very polite and understanding of pets needs. From the meet and greet to actual sitting, my Dog got a big and he was more than understanding in his new diet. Always giving updates and feedback on his walks. Highly recommend.”

About: I’ve been caring for animals my entire life—dogs, cats, bearded dragons, snakes, and just about every quirky pet a friend has trusted me with. I even interned at a veterinary office back in high school, which gave me early hands‑on experience with animal behavior and basic care. I provide individualized attention, plenty of playtime and cuddles, regular walkies for the pups, feeding, and medication administration when needed. As a naturally detail‑oriented person, I follow your care instructions closely so your pet’s routine stays consistent and comforting. Your pet will be in safe, attentive, loving hands every step of the way. 🏡 Boarding Routine For boarding, I match your pet’s normal schedule—feeding times, walk times, medication, bedtime routines, and any special habits they rely on. Since I work from home, your pet won’t be left alone for long stretches and will get plenty of companionship, playtime, and supervision. 🐾 Walkies & Drop-Ins During the week, I'm available for morning and evening walkies & drop-ins. On weekends, my schedule is fully flexible to match your needs. I keep a calm, low‑stress home with plenty of soft, cozy spots for pets to relax. I can separate pets for feeding if that’s part of their routine. The lawn is unfenced, so all outdoor time is supervised and on‑leash to keep everyone safe. I make sure pets always have a calm, safe space to relax. Their comfort and safety come first. For Walkies & Drop-ins, I make sure your pet gets attention, potty breaks/walks, fresh water, and anything else they need to stay comfortable until you’re home.
“Michelle is 10 stars. I was impressed from the moment i met Michelle with her preparation and attention to detail. I left the country for 2 weeks and she went above and beyond keeping me updated and taking great care of 5 cats and a bird! I had no worries while i was away thanks to Michelle”

“Lindsey did a great job. She was on time and returned our texts and calls almost immediately. Barkley loved her. We were first time users of a pet sitter and Lindsey exceeded our expectations. As nervous pet parents, Lindsey put our minds to rest by sending pictures and updates of how Barkley was doing through out our time away. We will definitely use her again as Barkley's sitter.”

“Jess is absolutely amazing! She is great with my dog, super communicative with me, and sends the funniest pictures. My dog is super shy but she loved Jess immediately. I highly recommend Jess for your pets, she will love them and they’ll love her!”

About: I have worked with cats and dogs for many years. I have trained my own dog who is very well tempered and I have administered different types of medicines to older and younger animals! I have a very open schedule as a college student and love spending time with animals! I love going on walks and being outdoors, weather doesn’t matter to me! I live in a nice neighborhood with a dog park walking distance away, and I have no other animals so that yours can be the center of attention!
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over 2 years, but truly my love for animals started as a kid. Neighbors, friends, and family have always trusted me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior pets, and even pets with special needs. My goal is always to make your furry family member feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. I’m available on weekends and weekdays. perfect for boarding, walks, or drop-in visits. I love making time every day to care for animals, so your pets will always get the attention they deserve.

Sara was incredible! She took such great care of my older kitty while I was away on a trip. He’s on many different medications and has specific needs for his health, and Sara was so patient and helpful, making sure to follow all his instructions. She went above and beyond to learn about his needs, play with him, and make him comfortable.She was so easy to work with and clearly experienced. She became a constant soft place for my kitty to land while I was away! I definitely plan to work with her again!

Andrea is the cat whisperer! My cats, one of which is extremely shy, warmed up to her immediately. Cats have a sense of who they can trust. Andrea was reliable, followed everything that was asked, and sent updates. I always get nervous leaving my pets home by themselves when I'm away, but I felt at ease with Andrea checking on them. Will definitely be contacting her again!
