“We absolutely loved having Theresa as a sitter! She was great with our girls and they loved her. They can be finicky dogs and they felt comfortable with her from the start with snuggles on the first day. She was very attentive with lots of feedback that enabled us to enjoy our vacation because we knew our girls were well taken care of.”


“Emily is the perfect pet and house sitter! She updated us every day multiple times a day. She followed my written instructions with no problem. She gave our pets so much love and attention…. Even more than we do probably. She gave our scared pittie special attention during thunderstorms and fireworks. She handled our blind Aussie like it was nothing. Our pets looked so happy the entire week in the many photos we received…and our house was exactly the way we left it upon our return. I just can’t say enough good things and we cannot wait to have her back!”

“Look no further for the perfect pet sitter. Kiera is absolutely wonderful! She treated my babies like her own and got our extremely skiddish previously feral cat to snuggle on her lap which is unheard for a stranger. She went above and beyond to provide care, with frequent pics and updates if you request that. We couldn’t be happier!”


“Brandi was an absolute delight to work with. You will be instantly at ease with her caring for your pets. She is thorough, kind, and it was amazing to come home from a trip to happy and relaxed animals. Brandi communicates so well by sending pictures and updates. Will be using her services again and again! Thank you Brandi?”


“Amber took great care of my senior cat. He takes medicine 3 times a day and she was ON it. I came home to a calm, happy kitty. She communicated, sent pictures, and was just a great care provider!”


“Riley was a blessing to our house. Theo and Daisy love her. It was wonderful to see my fur babies go to her and be so relaxed. Taking such good care of them, while staying in their environment to help them feel more at ease. They had just gone through a move and being home was important to their wellbeing. Thank you so much for alleviating so much stress from me plate. We look forward to our next vacation, knowing you are their special person.”


“Taylor was very loving towards my girls and communicated very well while she stayed with my girls! 3 dogs can be overwhelming but she embraced it and I came home to happy girls after my trip!”


“Nickali was fantastic with the dogs. We had never left them with someone before. The dogs were happy to see us, but were just as content with Nickali. It was a huge relief. The fact that he sent us pictures also helped. We will use him again.”


“This was a long stay and we were able to enjoy the time away knowing our pup was well cared for at home enjoying Regular walks and outside play.”


About: I am such an animal lover. I’ve grown up on a farm and I’ve been taking care of all animals since I could walk! I’m a healthcare worker just looking to fill up my extra time. I currently work 3 days a week. Mondays through Wednesdays. I’m looking to fill up my extra days off. Thursdays-Sundays! I don’t travel much so I’m always around. I have a rescue Aussie named Duke and he is in our unfenced yard with an underground shock collar. I’m in an area where walking trails are available! We love to play with our million toys and pond swimming. A good walk with all the sniffing needs to be done.

About: I've provided full life love and care to my own dogs as well as others. I am trained and experienced in the training, caring, and identifying of any "issues" and/or "complications". I don't currently have a part time or full time job. That being said, I'd find it to be pretty fortunate if I could make pet care my full time passion. I can care and tend to your pet(s) in any way that you and them need and see fit. I have no special arrangements needed for my own needs(I'd rather sleep on the floor with my own clean blankets and pillows anyway :) ). I don't currently have any pets but it's the same approach when I do and that is to make sure they're feeling comfortable and loved first and foremost. I would like to say and inform any potential clients that I am not yet experienced upon this platform watching more than 1 dog at one time and will not be able to accept any requests involving such circumstances. My reasoning for that is as simple as I don't want to put your pets or I at risk for any potential setbacks/complications. I'll happily update my profile as I obtain more experience.

About: When considering a pet sitter, I bring years of experience and a genuine passion for animal care. Having taken care of pets since I was just 9 years old, I've developed a deep understanding of their behaviors and needs. My love for dogs, in particular, drives me to provide the best possible care for each furry friend I encounter. I pride myself on being intuitive when it comes to animals, allowing me to recognize their emotions and needs quickly. This ability helps me create a comfortable and nurturing environment, ensuring that pets feel secure and loved in my care. I easily bond with animals, which not only enhances their well-being but also fosters trust between us. Choosing me as your pet sitter means entrusting your beloved companions to someone who is not just experienced but genuinely cares about their happiness and health. I am committed to providing a safe and enriching experience for your pets while you are away. Part-time seasonal pet-care is what I’m offering. I can house sit pets for vacations or short trips that just require pets be taken outside or a walk. I have 11 years of pet ownership experience, and from that I am confident that I can handle most any of the needs of others pets.

“Did such a great job taking house sitting and taking care of both dogs. Loved all the pictures ?”


“Ashley has been a blessing to us. She has been so good to our girls. Our house was clean and I can’t appreciate that enough. Absolutely she gets 5 stars from us.”


“We couldn't be happier with Brogan! We were away for a long weekend and she looked after our dog, Darla. Brogan sent us lots of pictures, texts, and info on how they were all getting along. It definitely made me feel little to no concern about how things were going back home and I was able to enjoy my trip. Darla is a reactive dog and strong as well. Brogan worked so well with her on the leash and wasn't at all uncomfortable. Lots of communication before we left as well and totally responsible with the house. We're already hoping to book her again! 15 stars!! ☺️”

11. Tanner L.
“Tanner has a very unique and definitely rare gift of being able to care, and even more importantly and impressively, relate to pets. If I had to somehow describe it without watching it with you, I would suggest thinking of the movies Marley and Me and A Dogs Purpose(i haven't seen him around cats). He understands not only what troubles them and why it troubles them but also is able to seamlessly put himself in their shoes and knows their perspective of how things are going for each pet. More importantly, I believe this allows and gifts the pet a certain feeling and level of freedom and trust to the outside world.”


12. Logan S.
“I wholeheartedly recommend Logan as a pet sitter. He consistently demonstrates a high level of dependability, which gives any pet owner peace of mind. His genuine compassion for animals is evident in how he interacts with them, ensuring they feel comfortable and loved. Logan has an exceptional rapport with animals, understanding their needs and behaviors, which makes him an ideal choice for any pet owner. I believe Logan would provide excellent care for any pet.”
