“Another great visit from Nikki. She even helped us out by bringing on all of our Amazon packages that we weren’t expecting, since the weather was bad. Thanks so much, Nikki!”
“Devon was an excellent sitter for our cat Moose. She fed him and played with him while we were away for a week. Devon was responsible, quick to respond, sent photos of Moose everyday, and wrote about each visit. Good communication and clearly loves what she does! Cats don’t always warm up to people right away, but Moose did when they first met. Devon even came to meet us and Moose before booking which was very helpful! I will definitely be using Devon again!!”
“Amanda is phenomenal with our two dogs and our shy pup is getting more and more comfortable with her. Amanda always shares great updates and is super easy to communicate with about schedules.”
“This is the second time I’ve had Callie do drop-in visits for my two cats and she did a fantastic job both times! She goes above and beyond to make sure your pets stay happy and healthy. I highly recommend hiring her for any of your pet care needs!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, bunnies, chickens, and even bears (yes, really). I’ve been pet sitting since I was 10, and families have trusted me for years to walk, feed, and love their pets like my own. I’ve also volunteered at an animal shelter and a wildlife refuge, so I’m comfortable with all types of animals and their unique needs. I’m reliable, calm, and know how to handle both routine care and the occasional pet emergency. Whether it’s a weekend away or a two-week trip, I make sure your pets feel safe, happy, and loved the whole time. I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule to dedicate time to pet care. I’m available for boarding on weekends and most weekdays. Pet care has always been a big part of my life, and I prioritize it in my daily routine. Whether it’s drop-in visits, walks, or overnight stays, I make sure your pet gets plenty of attention and love. I live on 10 acres of open land, giving pets lots of space for calm outdoor time (always supervised), and a smaller fenced area with a shallow (40” depth) pool. I also have two sweet, cat-friendly cats and chickens, so I’m used to managing different types of animals. I’m trained in pet first aid, super reliable, and always follow care instructions closely to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy in any environment.
“Alyssa has been walking our dog daily for the past few months, and she has been great! Fenway loves getting a mid-day visitor when Alyssa stops by and gives her a quick walk around the yard. She's been great at providing care and attention to both our dog and our cat. We have never had any scheduling issues or cancelations from her. She has been great to work with so far, and we look forward to working with her further.”
About: I have had dogs all my life and love taking care of them. We have 3 dogs at home who are all super friendly. I’ve been helping take care of them since I was 7 years old so I have a lot of experience. I’m a college student home for the summer. I am currently working part time in a restaurant so I have a lot of free time to walk dogs, check-in on them, etc. We have fenced in area out back and an area in front that is not fenced in. I have three dogs and two of them we can let go outside without a fence or leash but the third runs so we always put him on a leash or in the fenced in area. We have plenty of dog beds, toys, and treats.
About: I have had a dog since I was born. My dog and I grew up together, learning together. Saying that I’ve had my fair share of experience being with pets. I have always had the responsibility to learn how to take care of them and their needs and we can’t forget having fun with toys and walks. Recently my dog sadly passed away and I would love nothing more being pets again. I currently work night shift during the week. So I’ll be available during the day after 7 am for playtime and walks and making sure they are fed and whatever they may need. I also have the weekends off Unfortunately I do not have a fenced in yard but I do have lots of grass for them to run around in and live in a quiet neighborhood perfect for walks. Since I’m used to having two dogs in the home, I can accommodate most specific needs.

“Amazing!!! Was such a relief having someone help with our pups who clearly loves them as much as we do. Thanks for making our vacation more enjoyable by doing such a great job with Fenway, Duke and Roxy.”
