“Lindsay is the best! We are moving out of area and we are so sad about having to find another dog walker. Tonight on her walk with Crystal, Lindsay encountered a crazy cat that kept trying to attack our little dog. She is such a good protector that not only did she try to shoo away the cat, but she carried Crystal all the way home when the cat kept trying to attack her! ??? #dogwalkeraward”


“We are so thankful for Hannah! We haven’t even had our puppy a week and underestimated the ability to leave him on our work days, Hannah was able to come over a couple times throughout the day to take him out and play with him. So communicate and patient with me as a first time puppy parent.”

About: I have a dog since I was 7. I currently volunteer at a rehabilitation center and have been there for one and a half years, so I am well suited to fulfilling the needs of your pets. I’m currently working a part-time job so I can stop by on weekdays while you work your nine to five to pay for your fur baby. I have a dog that gets kibble all day and wet food at 5:30 every night. He receives a daily walk around our local neighborhood and we play on his schedule. I listen to what his needs are and make sure they are met.


“Jennifer was awesome! She gave me pictures Daily and took great care of our kitty, Alice. Would highly recommend if you are looking for a caring, sweet pet sitter for your cat or dog. Thanks, Jennifer!”


“We were so grateful to have Jennylyn take care of our cat while we were out of town. She responded to our messages promptly and kept us updated with regular photos and reports. Our cat can be quite sassy, mischievous, and not always friendliest, but Jennylyn was very patient and handled things wonderfully. We felt at easy knowing our cat was in great hands. We'd definitely book with Jennylyn again and recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter.”


“Could not be any happier with Amber’s care of my fur babies! One of the best features of my trip was her taking such good care of our pets. Not only do my high maintenance Siamese have separate food and medication but they’re also separated in the house and she handled with ease. Very much appreciate the peace of mind she gave me with following our complicated routine, giving detailed visits, and pictures. Incredibly grateful and confident in hiring her again. Thank you SO much Amber!”


About: I've owned everything from birds, turtles, fish and dogs. My dogs are treated like my kids so don't expect yours to be treated any less than that. I've also pet sit cats, dogs, and rabbits so I know how to care for a wide variety of normal house pets. Pet care is a daily thing for me I have 2 pups myself and I feed them before work, make sure they have time to use the restroom, and relax a bit with them before work. After work we go out to either play or walk and then they have their dinner and we play before we go to bed. I have a nice back yard dogs can run around in as well as different size crates/ kennels if that's needed as well. I'm patient and let them have their time to sniff everything needed and let them enjoy themselves. They're here much shorter than we are so I want them to enjoy life.

“Kallie and Adam were wonderful. They took the time to get to know our dogs and left perfect notes on their visit. This was our first time using them and not the last.”


“Kiki is great. She was excellent with our dog and went the extra mile during her drop in visit. We will be asking Kiki back for more visits and you should feel confident in hiring her.”


“Cassandra did a great job again with my two cats! I greatly appreciate how communicative she is and how well she follows instructions. My cats love her and her love for animals is very evident. I highly recommend Cassandra!”

At my current job, I focus on feedings, medications, group enrichment activities and agility/basic obedience training. I have also been a kitten/cat foster parent since April 2020.

“Look no further ! Alyssa is TOP NOTCH! When I need help with my two cats while I am out of town, the first person I call is Alyssa (even before my own mother!). They are always very eager to help and provide their services. While planning for anytime I am out of town Alyssa is very diligent about getting all necessary details for the care that will be needed – i.e feeding schedule, emergency contacts, any specific play time or extra play time that would be needed. My two babies LOVE Alyssa like another parent and are so excited to spend time with them – the photos I get prove it every time! I am so lucky to have Alyssa as an extra pair of hands while I’m going for a long trip or a quick one and would highly recommend them to anyone to help take care of their fur babies!”
