Melanie was top-notch. This was our first Sophie-care encounter with Melanie. Sophie is a 16+ year-old beagle with health issues and medicine requirements. We exchanged info through Rover, Melanie stopped by to meet Sophie and learn a little about Sophie’s care, and Melanie cared for Sophie during a drop-in session at our home. Melanie was professional, thoughtful, positive, and very clearly had Sophie’s health and well-being as her top priorities. We will definitely add Melanie to our go-to list.

Kylie always goes above and beyond when she takes care of my Emma. She is my go to when I need someone to watch my Emma. I wouldn’t have it any other way, and Emma would agree!

I never worry about my pets when they are in Michele’s care. She is very patient with my senior cat and shy dog. I appreciate her updates throughout the stay.

About: I bring a lot of hands-on experience and a whole lot of love to every pet I care for! I’ve dog sat for up to a week at a time and have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities—from energetic pups to more laid-back seniors. I also have two dogs and two cats of my own, so I’m very used to juggling different routines, energy levels, and preferences. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, cuddle sessions, or keeping cats comfortable in their own space, I make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and right at home while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine! I’m in school from 8–3, but I’m self-employed, which gives me flexibility outside of those hours. This means I can easily plan my days around pet visits, walks, and in-home care without worrying about a strict work schedule. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening care, and I make sure every pet gets consistent attention, exercise, and love built into my daily routine. I focus on keeping pets comfortable by sticking as closely as possible to their normal routine. In a client’s home, I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while also respecting the home and keeping everything clean and organized. For dogs, this includes regular walks, playtime, feeding on schedule, and lots of positive interaction. For cats, I prioritize calm care, feeding, litter box upkeep, and giving them space or cuddles depending on their personality. Because I have two dogs and two cats of my own, I understand how important consistency and communication are. I always keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can feel confident their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for.

Corette did an amazing job taking care of our two high maintenance kitties. She sent us picture updates and it was clear our cats loved spending time with her while we were gone. I would definitely have Corette watch our cats again!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was young, family and friends have allowed me to take care of them. I enjoy taking them on walks, petting them and giving the attention they deserve, and taking care of them. I will treat them just as you would and offer extended stays. For stays longer than 5 days, most I have done is a month and a half as of present, you will return to a clean home 😊 I am strong and able to keep my stability while walking dogs, am able to let them out, feed them, give baths, and offer other services for the home like my interior design skills which is another side business, that can be spoken about, if interested.

About: I’ve lived in a household with pets for my entire life, so pet care comes as natural as family care to me. I’ve had dogs and cats of different colors and sizes ranging from 5-180 lbs, so I’ve learned how to accommodate for any furry family member you might need help caring for. I’ve been pet sitting for family and friends since I was in middle school. This is cats, dogs, both, and even goats at one time! I’m excited to give your pet any extra care and love it needs just like I would my own. I’m a full time student and have extra time throughout the day/week to give to your furry friend. I’m available for visits during the day or evening and some afternoons. I’m available for weekend care as well! I’m open to caring for pets in your home for visits or overnight care if you’ll be away for some time. I always make sure I’m acquainted with the pet(s) first so that I’m not a complete stranger coming into their space. I like to make sure I have clear and explicit instructions for food, medications, entry/exit procedures, etc so the pets routine stays as normal as possible!

Avery was so pleasant and attentive to Florence. She agreed to dog sitting at the very last minute and was very prompt and responsive. I also had some last minute conflicts and she was super flexible about everything with scheduling. Obviously comfortable with animals and a kind person to interact with! Will definitely be using dog sitting again!

About: I’ve had a dog ever since I was a baby and grew up visiting my grandpa’s farm in the country! My family also had cats, and I had four fish growing up! I love taking care of my family’s dog whether it be walking, exploring, or just cuddling and petting! I have had experience with all types of pets, from super energetic to ones that would sit on the couch all day long if they could! I have experience staying overnight for multiple days if needed with your pets, or dropping in a couple times a day as needed! I also love taking walks!

Keandra took care of our Malinois for two weeks. I was super nervous to have a new pet-sitter, as we just moved into the area and it would be the first vacation we'd taken where our dog would be with a new sitter and it would be for a long time. Keandra was super understanding about my concerns and we set up two meet and greets beforehand so my dog would be more familiar with her and her house. They spoiled Lily so much, and she did great the entire time. Keandra didn't send many updates, but was quick to respond whenever I asked about Lily, and encouraged me to check in as often as I needed. Lily will often start chewing her feet when anxious, or refuse to eat her food, but I came back to a fully healthy, happy dog who had been spoiled rotten for two weeks! Really made my heart happy to see how well she did and the care they gave her. Keandra even gave Lily a bath right before we picked her up!

Due to unfortunate circumstances she couldn’t watch my pups. She was very proactive in keeping me up to date and helping me find another dog sitter. She said she would definitely like to help in the future.

About: I have my own cat but dog and cat sit for for friends/family often - including my sister’s doodle for 6 weeks when he was a puppy! I work full-time and enjoy working out in the evenings but can let pets out for potty breaks throughout the day depending on my work schedule. I prefer to care for pets in the client’s home, since my own cat is very territorial - he is not a fan of other animals.
