“Jenna was the most perfect sitter for our kitties! She sent lots of photos and detailed reviews of each of her visits. Our cats loved her so much and played and snuggled with her. We are so thankful for Jenna!”


“This is my first time using a pet sitter, and it’s the best money I’ve ever spent! I felt like my pets were in amazing hands with Lara. She paid extra attention to their needs (and messes) and cared a lot about their wellbeing. I really appreciated her attentiveness and her love for animals.”


“Santana did a wonderful job with our two dogs while we were gone for the holidays! She was always quick to respond to my messages and gave detailed updates on how the pups were doing. She was willing to work with our dogs quirks to ensure they were both safe and happy. We highly recommend her for watching your pets!”


“Camillia did a fabulous job - even with a surprise issue we had at our house that required ServePro to come daily for mitigation! Thank you to her for taking such good care of Leo!”


“Emily did a great job with our 2 kitties! We were out of town for a week and we’d never left our boys alone longer than one night, so we were trepidatious about leaving them that long. Emily communicated every day and sent pics, which put our minds at ease. Thank you for taking good care of our boys! 10/10, would recommend.”


“I adopted an 8 year old cat. The only person she will allow to touch her is me. Usually hisses at everyone else even my husband. This the third time Brooke cared for Dolly she was sitting on Brooke’s lap getting pets. Brooke the cat whisperer does a fantastic job.”

About: I have taken care of all sizes of dogs. I love seeing a pets’ personality bloom as they get comfortable with me! I enjoy showing animals and attention! I have experience with animals that have medical issues/need medication. I am a college student but I take online courses. I just have to be logged into the Zoom meeting. I do babysit on Tuesdays and Thursdays for two hours: 10am-noon. I like to take notes about the animal that I can access at anytime. I like to ask for a vet preference in case anything ever happens. I am very detail oriented!

“Jeralee did an outstanding job with our puppies. She was very professional with us two leggers and very sweet with the important four leggers. We asked very last minute for a sitter, and she was on it. I would ask for her in the Shelly, Idaho Falls area any time. Thank you Jaralee.”
