“We needed last minute care for our kitten who had recently had spay surgery. We needed someone to come over and administer meds and feed our two cats while we were gone for the weekend. Rebecca was available same day and was a life saver. She was very communicative and reliable. It was a relief to know that our kitty was in good hands.”


“Although I ended up having to cancel my trip so Ashley/Olivia didn’t end up doing the drop in visits, Olivia was great at the drop-in visit I scheduled before our trip! My chinchillas took to her immediately. Gus, our fiestiest boy, happily accepted cheek scritches from her and another one of my chins even let her pick him up :) That says a lot about how she interacts with animals because as prey animals, trust doesn’t come easily to chinchillas. She also asked a lot of important questions about their care which I appreciated. She was super responsive and flexible about when I came to pick up my key from her. I would feel at ease with her taking care of my pets the next time I need care for them!”


“Aimee was the perfect sitter for Salem. She made sure he was well taken care of. She updated us everyday with pictures. I am very stressed when I know he has to be left alone but this trip i knew he was in very good hands. Definitely recommend.”


“James' professionalism shines through his attention to detail and willingness to go the extra mile. His genuine connection with animals was evident when Geronimo, typically shy around strangers, warmed up to James enough to forgo his usual under-the-bed hideout. The daily updates reassured me that Beowulf and Geronimo were receiving ample attention, exercise, and care. James' excellent communication skills kept me informed and at ease throughout my absence. Perhaps the most valuable aspect of James' service was the peace of mind he provided. I could fully enjoy my time away, confident in Beowulf and Geronimo's well-being and my home's security. For anyone in need of a dependable, compassionate drop-in dog sitter, James comes with my highest recommendation. We're already looking forward to booking his services for our next trip!”


“I’ve had Jaclyn take care of my dogs a few times now and she always sends me updates on the dogs and sends me pictures, assuring me not to worry while I’m away. I highly recommend her services!”


“Allison is fantastic! She’s super patient, reliable, and Eclipse absolutely adores her. I always feel at ease knowing my pup is in such loving hands. Lots of playtime and care every visit—highly recommend!”


“Miranda has been visiting my dogs for about 3 months now and they love having her around. She has been particularly patient with my anxious dog and that gives me peace of mind knowing he has someone who accepts him. Both dogs are excited to hear her name when I tell them she’ll be by while I’m at work. She is communicative and reliable. I will continue to use her for the foreseeable future.”


“Sarah was a life saver. She came through for us for our family vacation. She was so good with my 2 girls. Now they have a new friend. Thanks for being so punctual and for spending time with my dogs. I will surely be using you again in the future!!”

“Chelsea was absolutely great! She provided drop in care for our 2 cats when we were out of town. She did exactly what we asked her to manage and it was great! Our cats were very happy and comfortable around her which is NOT the norm. Just goes to show how sweet and good she is with pets. I highly recommend!”


About: Currently only available on evenings and weekends. I was raised with dogs my entire life. I've never met a dog who I didn't like, and who didn't like me. Three and a half years ago a cat walked into my home and refused to leave and made me his human and I consider this the highest compliment a cat can give. Special skills include giving the best pets/scratches/rubs/loves, being very big and strong so even the biggest dogs can't pull me or get away from me on walks, having tons of energy and enthusiasm for play, understanding/being able to read body language of dogs/cats, I'm currently funemployed and have wide availability to offer walks and drop ins at nearly anytime. Let me know what works for you and it will likely work for me. I am unable to bring others pets into my home as my cat deeply prefers to be an only pet and came to me to avoid another cat in his previous home. However, I will care for pets in their own homes or on walks with the same love as I've treated all my own dogs growing up and my cat now with. The most important thing about my care is I will discuss with you how you care for your pet and I will make sure that when your pet is with me they receive no less love, attention, and care than if you were with then yourself.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my calm, patient approach and deep understanding of animal behavior. I have experience with puppies, including basic training and potty routines, as well as with senior pets who may need gentle handling, medication, or special care. I treat every pet like family, and I always tailor my care to meet their unique needs and personalities. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m available for house sitting, drop-ins, and dog walking, so I organize my schedule around each pet’s needs—whether that’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening feedings. Caring for pets isn’t just a task for me—it’s something I look forward to and prioritize in my day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine to help them feel safe and comfortable. I follow all instructions closely—whether it’s feeding schedules, medication, walks, or playtime—and I make sure their environment stays clean and stress-free. I also provide regular updates and photos so you know your pet is happy and well cared for. My goal is to make your time away worry-free while keeping your pet’s day-to-day as familiar as possible.


“Naya did an amazingly Job for us watching our boys. Photos were provided and they looked like they had a great 30 minutes of play with Naya. We will definitely use Naya again.”


About: With over 20 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and small animals, I provide more than just pet sitting — I offer a second home for your furry loved ones. From daily walks and feedings to cuddles and playtime, every pet is showered with so much love and attention. Whether it’s senior pets needing gentle care or energetic pups who love adventure, I tailor each visit to meet their unique needs. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priority. I always communicate clearly so you feel at ease while you’re away. Because pets aren’t just animals — they’re family. 🐾 I currently work full-time 3 days in office and Wednesdays & Thursdays from home. I’m also available on the weekends so feel free to reach out any day of the week for boarding services and I’ll be happy to receive your pawsome fur baby 🐾 I live in a very safe and dog friendly environment. I do not have a fenced yard, however, my community is very dog friendly that has a dog park right behind my house and walk friendly paths to take your fur baby on. I also care for cats as I grew up with both dogs and cats and have experience taking care of little kittens and pups to seniors. If you’d like me to check in on your fur baby at the comfort of your home, please feel free to reach out so I can coordinate a time where I can come and give your fur baby some loving care 💕

“Nicole took amazing care of our senior pups. I usually worry so much when I have to leave them but felt very comfortable that she would take good care of them. She was on time for all of the drop ins we had scheduled, sent us pictures and took good care of my girls. I will definitely use Nicole again and would recommend her to others.”


“Once again, our favorite pet sitters came through! They did such a wonderful job leaving pictures and updates of our pups while we were away. They are hands down the best option if you want to come home to happy, healthy dogs! Thank you so much as always!”
