“Melissa was so wonderful! Our cats were So happy she was there and we loved getting updates on how they were doing. She’s our #1 choice for cat sitting.”


About: While I was growing up, my family always had cats and dogs. I have a lot of experience taking care of animals. I have 7 pets. I have 2 rabbits, 2 Guinea pigs, a crested gecko, a cat and a dog. I have been volunteering at a rabbit rescue for 3 years. I have experience giving medication to dogs, rabbits and guinea pigs. I am comfortable around dogs of all energy levels. I work full time from home, 8-5 Monday to Friday. I will be available most weekday nights and weekends. Days and times can be flexible. If I am caring for a pet in someone’s home, I will be very respectful of their home and exactly follow their instructions as far as taking care of their fur baby.

“Christiana is great! I am a very paranoid dog mom lol. It was hard trusting someone with my dog but she is super sweet! She sent pictures the whole time she watched my dog and Marshall loved her! Would highly recommend!!”


“Melanie and Anthony were great with our dogs, even with one of them in heat. They kept them well fed and exercised. We were very pleased with the experience”



“Kathy knows her business and has a natural connection with dogs. Our little Chihuahua mix is very shy with strangers, but Kathy gave her a "massage" that immediately won her over. We were very comfortable knowing Kathy was taking care of our dog and two cats for the holidays. Highly recommended.”


“Trisha graciously watched my 2 older dogs at the last minute in my home. She was an amazing houseguest, and was incredible with my visually impaired dog who requires various daily medications. My other grumpy dog took to Trisha immediately, which is remarkable as he can be stingy with his affection. Thank you Trisha and we all look forward to seeing you again soon.❤️”


“Olivia was amazing with our Cavapoo, Lulu! They bonded instantly, and Lulu got to stick to her routine even while we were away. She made sure Lulu got plenty of playtime and attention, which we truly appreciate. Thank you again, Olivia, for keeping our girl company today! 😊🐶”



“Kyle is a great pet sitter, he was very conscientious of the animals needs and was great in the house. He kept me up to date and sent pictures and updates. My dogs loved him! I highly recommend.”


About: Hello! My name is Brittany and I have had animals my whole life, Growing up I always had dogs and cats, and still do! I'm very passionate about animals.

PLEASE read the details section of my page to learn about my availability, I have a very flexible job and I am willing to work with you!

I will never bring any other people to your home! These hours strictly apply to me visiting your home alone, as I have a unique job that allows me to work mostly from my home. Typically while I am working we leave my home for a few hours per day, but reside there majority of the time. Nobody I work with has ever been violent or have any history of violence / anger and would absolutely love to join me dog walking/sitting! They are high functioning, intelligent, and kind individuals who love animals and have their own dogs at their homes, However, if you do not want them to join me that is your complete right that I will ALWAYS respect. I live with my mother and grandmother so if I need to leave the house on occasion, your animal will never be home alone. * I own one dog and 3 cats at my house, and I am fostering a Black Lab untill August. My backyard is spacious and completely fenced in, all animals will be supervised at all times, especially when in the backyard because I do have a pool. All of my animals are very well trained and friendly towards others and will not be scared or aggressive towards other dogs and cats. Rooms separate from any animals are available for small animals such as fish, hamsters, bunnies and more, that will never come in contact with any of my cats so they are not stressed out!

“Emma was amazing. She took the time to make sure Jack felt completely comfortable with her so they could enjoy a great evening together. He can be a little anxious around people, but he warmed up to her right away. She naturally gives off an animal lover’s energy that both pets and humans can sense. She asks thoughtful questions to ensure she’s following your dog’s care instructions closely and even sends pictures to keep you reassured throughout the experience. We are so thankful we found her here.”

Please let me know if you would like to book Oaklin as well for your dog's drop-in visit or walk. I always bring Oaklin on overnights with me, as I am a single dog mom myself. From June 28-August 8th I have open availability! Currently, I am a teacher, so I'm only available 5 PM or later on weekdays, and occasionally on weekends until June 28th. . I have cared for pets with varrying energy levels, ages, training, interests, and health conditions. When I care for your pet, I will treat it as if it is my own.

Some of the breeds I’ve rescued, fostered and cared for include Pointers, Terriers, Retrievers, Chihuahuas, Doodles, Bulldogs, Mutts and designer dogs. As well as cats, bunnies birds and reptiles. I love them all equally! I take whatever approach necessary to tailor my care and attention to match your pup’s needs, whether they are high energy or easy breezy…I will be sure to provide a great experience for them. Your dog and I can go for walks or hang in your yard. Go on play dates or spend quality time…a one on one game of fetch or just snuggles.

Furnished with a large sofa, fluffy dog beds, soft blankets, snuggle floor mats, tons of toys, fresh filtered water, treats, cool A/C, flatscreen TV and streaming music or stress relieving sounds for those nervous visitors.
