“Pleasure to work with and coordinate the visit. Highly recommend Katie to anyone who wants detailed attention for their fur baby. We’ll be using her services on a routine basis. Thank you for making Kai’s first experience an enjoyable one!”

About: I am a cat mom and lover of all animals! I have experience with many types of animals, from cats and dogs, to reptiles and birds, to farm animals. I currently have a medically needy pet of my own, so I am well-versed in medicine administration and caring for animals with different needs. I am currently working at a school, so I have afternoons and weekends pretty much free! While I am caring for your pets, they are my number one scheduling priority. I will meet your pet where they are at in their own home, allowing them to stay in their safe space. I will adapt to their routines and give them a seamless experience until you return to them!
“Cara is extremely professional and a delight when she checks in on our little guy. Her communication is timely and provides a great level of assurance that our cat is well taken care of. We are beyond thrilled that we found Cara!”

“Debbie was fantastic! She took wonderful care of my cats while I was away for a week making sure they were well-fed and spoiled with plenty of treats. It gave me such peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. I would absolutely hire her again!”

About: I have been thoroughly enamored by dogs most of my life, ever since my family got our first black Lab. I have experience working with puppies, seniors, and everything in between! I currently have a 1-year-old puppy and 2 cats at home, all of whom are front-and-center in my life. I am also a veterinary technician (nurse), so I am very comfortable giving medication and caring for pets who may be unwell. I can also perform basic veterinary first aid, though I do not know CPR. I am extremely dedicated to keeping pets happy and healthy. I love working with them and discovering their unique personalities and quirks. I look forward to getting to know your dog! I am currently a full time vet tech, but am available all day on Sunday and Monday, and also afternoons (after 2 pm) on Wednesday and Saturday. I have one very friendly large-breed dog, who is generally pretty chill around other dogs, but will sometimes play. In your home, I would respect any boundaries you set and maintain common courtesy. I also strive to leave everything as I found it.
“What a huge help Amber was! We're incredibly grateful she was available to watch our two geriatric kitties. She is thorough, communicative, great with medication administration, trustworthy, and a joy to coordinate with and talk to. My cats were in wonderful hands, and I was able to actually enjoy time away and feel comfortable with the care they were receiving. Amber is a true gem, and she's definitely in the right field! Thank you!”

About: I grew up with dogs and love every dog I’ve met. I’ve been caring for dogs (and cats, chickens, pigs) for the last 10 years. I’ve cared for all sizes and breeds, mostly in their homes while their families go on vacation. This includes puppy and older dogs, following any instructions and keeping their routines. I currently work full-time. I typically do weekends (Friday-Sunday), but am available for extended or week long stays, if the dogs are typically okay for 8+ hours or another sitter to come let me out during the day. I make sure they are fed and have gone out before I leave and feed them and let them out when I get back and make sure it sit them with outside when the weather is nice. Dog sitting at the dogs home causes the dogs less anxiety and keeps them comfortable while they miss their family. I love when they are comfortable, show all their quirks, and get into their favorite spots. With providing at home sitting, the dogs don’t have to handle the stress of their family being gone and going to a new place, which every dog reactions different too. All the dogs I care for, I’ve seen the benefits of being in their house with them
About: I have had 2 pit bulls over the years, the best trained, off leash, friendliest dogs ever, on command from pup, you would have to meet them to know their awesomeness! You can spoil them but they need to learn that you are their alpha and consistency is key I am a server at dinners so my day is free and love dogs and am very passionate about their care and dedicated as you are to them! Your pet is like a child to me, meaning with great care, showing them love as you do and I will follow your lead during my visits
“Alissa was awesome! She was kind, communicated clearly throughout the process, and did a great job with our very anxious pup. We're so grateful that she was able to take care of him while we were gone, and I would definitely recommend her!”

“I highly recommend Lila. She did an amazing job with my three cats. She is very diligent and honest. Gustav needs a pill and she was able to give him that. Betty is very timid but she went to Lila. Lila kept me updated with texts and photos everyday. She went above and beyond. I look forward to having Lila take care of my fur babies whenever I travel!”

“Lily was extremely helpful when my previously booked sitter cancelled at the last minute. She was friendly and able to respect our home's dietary restrictions. She was a lifesaver! My senior car was cared for, and the house was in order upon our return. Lily provided occassional updates on how things were going and a few photos. She always responded quickly to messages despite a time difference. We'd be open to hiring Lily again.”

About: I’m an animal lover at heart and have been helping care for dogs since I was little, at least 20 years and counting! I “dog-sat” throughout middle and high school for friends, family & neighbors. Happy to walk, play, feed, and then some. I’m seeking additional “work” that can also help me - I firmly believe that caring for animals is beneficial for mental and physical health! I’m not only caring for them, the furr friends are taking care of me too! I’m a teacher, off for the summer, and pretty available with the exception of a short vacation here or there. I am happy to coordinate times and schedules with you around your pets needs. I love nature and spend time outside daily; I can walk them around the block, the yard, or play catch! Suggestions welcome of your "norms"
About: Hello! I have 30 years of experience caring for pets. I own an 80lb lover-girl named Lobster and a 10lb rascal-cat named Trinity (from The Matrix!) My schedule is very flexible and I'm available for couch snuggles, energetic playdates, and walkies. My furry companions have other members of the family to care for them at home if I'm pet-sitting overnight. I can drop-in your place, go for walks, stay overnight, give your cat snuggles, or (with your approval) bring your pup(s) to my large fenced-in backyard!
“Excellent service. Reliable and understanding and quick responses to any questions. We felt very confident when we were away that our 2 cats were under great care with Eryn. She is a very sweet person!”
About: I take pride in my ability to care for any and all animals of any size! I guarantee to provide a safe, loving and warm environment for your fur baby. I currently work 3 (random) days per week, 7a-7p. Working towards becoming a Nurse at the moment so love and care is in my blood! I have a dog of my own, so I am always caring for an animal on my days off! I have a fenced in yard that our Newdle loves to sprint all around! I never leave my pup unattended, I always go out for potty breaks and to play in the yard to ensure his safety.
“Ace is an incredibly attentive, thoughtful, and caring sitter. We booked her to care for our two older cats and she was so communicative and kind to the little guys. One of our cats needs a subcutaneous injection daily, and she did a wonderful job delivering it - even when he was being difficult. I couldn’t recommend Ace enough, and am definitely going to book her again in the future.”
