“Becca was so amazing with our animals! We have chickens, cats and a reactive and kind of difficult German Shepherd and she did amazing with all of them. She took amazing care of the chickens and cats but I was most impressed with her work with the GSD. She walked him every day, even when he was being a doofus and once pulled away from his gentle leader. She then switched to a different collar and continued, even though we said she could just let him out in the yard. She sent thorough updates every morning and night and was super pleasant to work with. 110% recommend to anyone and we would love to use her again!”

About: Animals have always been a part of my life. I currently have a playful Russian Blue cat and have cared for both dogs and cats for over a decade. What sets me apart is my attention to detail, calm demeanor, and ability to tune into an animal's needs—whether it's a high-energy puppy, a shy rescue, or a senior pet needing gentle care. I have experience with reinforcing training with consistency and love. I work remotely and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide reliable and consistent care throughout the day. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I make sure animals receive attention, play, and walks at regular intervals. I’m committed to keeping pets comfortable and cared for, whether it’s a one-time visit or regular companionship. I treat every home and pet with respect, care, and professionalism. I follow all instructions carefully, keep pets’ environments clean and safe, and always ensure gates, doors, and crates are secure. Whether in your home or mine, I create a calm, low-stress environment where pets feel safe, loved, and well-cared for. I communicate clearly and provide updates so pet parents feel confident and informed.

“Second time we have used Jen. Could not be more pleased. Great communication, pets are happy and healthy, and she does exactly what she says she will. Thank you Jen. You release the stress of having to leave our pets.”

“Excellent sitter! Our cats are notoriously finicky and even they warmed up to him! He was super accommodating with meet and greets and things like that, and offered up some suggestions to help us with one of our animals who needs pills. Our dog was totally in love with him! Fantastic guy, wish I could give 6 stars”
25. Melise S.
“Melise has stayed at my house with my dog Lily on several occasions. Lily is a Havanese who is very friendly and wants to be with you wherever you go. Melise takes her for a walk and lets her ride in the car, two of Lily's favorite things to do. I trust Melise in my house with Lily. She is trustworthy, kind,, dependable and reliable. I would highly recommend her as a house/dog sitter.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and have been caring for them since I was a young girl. They’ve always been a part of my family, so I’m comfortable with everything from dog walking to pet sitting, feeding, and even bathing. Whether it's playing with puppies or giving extra attention to senior dogs, I want to make sure each pet feels comfortable and loved. My schedule is pretty flexible! During the week, I’m available after 5 pm, mostly for dog walks. On weekends, I’m free all day and can help with dog walking, pet sitting, house sitting, or whatever your pet needs. I don’t have any dogs at home right now, but your dog will be treated like part of the family! I focus on creating a safe and comfortable environment where your dog can relax, play, and enjoy their time. I make sure to follow your pet’s routine and give them the love and attention they deserve.
