“Stacie was awesome, she took really GREAT care of my kitties. We've only had them 3 months and didn't know what to do. We were so glad to have found someone so caring of animals. Loved the selfies, we would use her again. Thank you so much!!!!”
“Kelera was great! She played with our cats and gave great updates with photos and videos. I have an older cat that is scared of everything and she did her best to check in on her. Our younger cat was so excited for playing”
“Jazz was so very awesome. This was the first time we used Rover and she was a definite awesome choice for our cats. We had a video call before to discuss everything and make sure we both knew what was to be expected. I got a text and photos and video of her visit with the cats, so my mind was more at ease. We will definitely recommend and rebook Jazz 😊”
“Lisa has watched my two cats, twice now and I cannot emphasize how amazing she is. She is so professional and always checks everything off my list. She also sends very detailed updates and photos. She makes my time away from home so easy because her service gives me such peace of mind. She has easily become my best sitter experience! Please book her! You will be so glad you did! ❤️”
“Erica has babysat our cat Domino in our home several times now. Domino is a cat that we took several months to rescue earlier this year. Consequently, she is shy and a bit skittish around new people. She bonded with Erica almost immediately! Erica has two cats of her own, so she knows a lot about them and their finicky nature. Erica has a warm and caring nature that comes across in the way that she communicates with Domino. She calls Domino her niece! Erica is fastidious with Domino’s litter box and feeds her twice daily. She sends us regular posts and updates regarding Domino’s antics. Erica spends time with Domino and plays with her. We miss Domino when we are gone, but never worry that she will be too lonely without us. We feel secure when we are away. We trust Erica with having the keys to our home. We have the utmost confidence that Erica will take great care of our fur baby.”
About: My family has had dogs since I was young. I also pet sit for friends and family while they are away on trips. I will care for your pets as if they are my own! I am a teacher so I am off during the summers. I do tutor but am happy to work with you to see what times will work best for us and your pets :) I am more than happy to play with your pets inside (and outside if able) your home, crate if necessary and take walks as needed.
About: With years of caring for dogs, cats, and everything in between, I’ve learned that every pet deserves more than just food and water. They deserve love, attention, and a sense of home while you’re away. I take time to get to know each pet’s personality, quirks, and routines so they feel comfortable and safe. Whether it’s extra cuddle time on the couch, long walks to burn off energy, or gentle reassurance for anxious pets, I’m here to make their day brighter. I’m currently working until 4:30pm during weekdays and am fully open on weekends. I’m happy to adapt to your scheduling needs and help your fur babies. When caring for pets in your home, I follow your instructions to the letter and keep your pet’s routine consistent so they feel secure. As a lifelong pet owner and experienced pet sitter, I’m ultra-vigilant about their safety, health, and comfort, always watching for changes in behavior, energy, or appetite. I’m also highly respectful of your space, treating your home with the same care and attention I give to your pet. Whether it’s feeding, playtime, litter scooping, or quiet companionship, my goal is to make sure your pet feels loved and your home is just as you left it.
About: I have extensive experience in pet care, having spent several years looking after a variety of animals including dogs, cats, and small pets. My responsibilities have included feeding, grooming, administering medication, walking dogs, cleaning litter boxes and cages, and providing companionship to ensure each pet feels safe and loved. I understand the importance of routine, patience, and attention to detail when it comes to animal care. Whether caring for energetic puppies or senior pets with special needs, I always prioritize their well-being, comfort, and happiness. Pet care is a natural and consistent part of my daily routine. Since I’m available every day, I’m able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to each pet’s unique needs. Whether it’s feeding, walking, grooming, or simply spending quality time with them, I make sure every task is done with care and patience. My flexible schedule allows me to adjust easily to last-minute needs or extended care, which helps build trust with both pets and their owners. Being fully available means I can maintain a reliable and steady routine that keeps pets happy, healthy, and comfortable. I care for pets in their own home to ensure they stay comfortable in a familiar environment. When I visit a client’s home, I follow their specific care instructions closely. I make sure to keep the pet’s routine as consistent as possible to reduce stress while their owner is away. I’m respectful of the home, always keeping things clean and organized, and I stay in touch with owners through updates and photos so they know their pets are safe, happy, and well-cared for.
About: I am a Veterinarian Technician with 7 years experience. I graduated from Fox college Vet Tech Institute and working with animals is my passion. I have experience working with Dogs, Cats, Rodents, Rabbits, Exotics, and Birds. I offer additional care for seniors pets (Ex: taking them on shorter more frequent walks) and pets who have health concerns. (Ex: Giving medications). Book with me and your pet will be in great hands! I am available 7 days a week! I offer Early morning walks, afternoon walks, evening walks, and night time walks. What ever time works for you most likely works for me! I live in an animal friendly apartment! I have a large kennel if your pet prefers to sleep in one. I have a big field of grass behind me for leash walks / play time.
“Marissa was great! She arrived on time to meet my little pups before I went out of town, and also arrived on time the day I scheduled for her to come let them out. She played with them, took them for a walk, fed them, and changed out a potty pad.”
“Keith was absolutely amazing! Snow has never been away from home or me before so I figured he would be a little skittish. He warmed right up to Keith! He sent pics and kept me informed. Would highly recommend him for all your furbaby needs!!!”
About: I’ve had pets my whole life ranging from fish, amphibians, rodents, birds, cats, and dogs. I love connecting with animals and giving them all the love they deserve! I also am a former vet assistant (I now work at a vet lab) so I have experience with pets of all ages, temperaments, and health statuses. My priority is the pets’ safety and comfort, and will work with them to ensure we have a foundation of trust. I also can work enrichment into my visits to get their minds more stimulated or just give them a 15 minute belly rub if that’s more up their alley. I’ve also trained many of my pets so I can help introduce basic commands to puppies or reinforce commands and manners from older pets. I’m available pretty much every day for the summer. Once mid-August comes around, I’ll be available Sunday-Tuesday at all times and Wednesday-Saturday from 9-11 AM I can come in let the pets out, clean up messes from them, feed/water, play enrichment games or work on training, and give them lots of love!
“Cindy was absolutely amazing! I was so uneasy after missing my meet and greet with the original scheduled sitter. But Cindy came and met my dogs and took the time to warm up to them in my absence. She’s really kind and sweet. I would definitely use her again. What a great service that allows the opportunity for dogs to stay at home in an environment where they feel comfortable or go out and enjoy something new! Thank you so much ?”
“This is my 2nd time using Myesha to help care for my fur babies when I was away. I felt so relaxed knowing that they were in great hands, she is my go to pet sitter!! Thank you Myesha!”

She has so much knowledge in that field. I highly recommend Bailey for the care of your pets!”
