“Kristina and Jordan took such amazing care of my pup while I was away. Kristina and Jordan treated her with so much love, and sent many pictures and videos during the stay. I’m definitely an anxious pet parent, but their care actually allowed me to relax knowing that she was in the best hands possible and having a great little vacation of her own. I couldn’t recommend them more. Thank you guys so much!”

“This was our fourth time booking Mary Ann to care for our elderly pup and once again, she delivered in spades! Over the years, our dog has boarded at various kennels and veterinary offices, but none those experiences with trained professionals could hold a candle to the services Mary Ann provides. I fear we have become too spoiled and now we will never be satisfied with anyone else ever again! Mary Ann is kind, professional, clean, and extremely skilled with pet care. She is the very best and we look forward to using her services again!”

We will definitely use Katie again to take care of Linus.”

About: I have taken care of my own cats for all of my life and neighbors cats. Cleaning litter boxes, being on top of food and water, and ofcourse giving cats enough play time as that is very important in a cats routine.
About: I provide, as well as top-notch care,a uniquely adaptive music therapy session for your pet so that even the most high-strung pets can feel relaxed and reassured by the sound of live classical piano music. A professional musician,I have also raised a litter of 10 puppies and have owned at least one dog at every point in my life.I am a consummate pet lover with 2 dogs currently. If your animal is a bit of a loner I can provide sequestered accommodations. I have a 16 year old who also loves animals; she as well has never lived without a dog. One of her passions is horseback riding and through this activity she has achieved a gentle but commanding demeanor around most animals. Between the two of us your pet will never lack a playmate! My work schedule allows for either me or my daughter to always be at home, so the pets have round the clock love and attention. I have a fenced in yard, and a house with plenty of space for pets to hang out. My 2 dogs are very friendly and are used to visiting dogs.
“My husband and I knew upon meeting Tara for the first time that she was the perfect fit with our cat, Charlie. Charlie is very shy and usually hides when people come to visit. However, this was not the case when Tara entered our home. Tara did a top-notch job taking care of Charlie during her drop in visits over a period of one month. We were so happy when she sent up pictures and updates. Tara is reliable, kind, professional, and a true animal lover. Cats can be messy with the litter, etc. But with Tara on the job, we came home to a very neat home and well-fed, content cat. We will definitely seek Tara services again. Furthermore, we highly recommend her. Thanks a million, Tara.”
“Marisa stayed at our house for more than two weeks, caring for our cat and plants. She did an exceptional job! Our cat was very content and hardly seemed to miss us, which really shows how comfortable she was with Marisa. I would recommend her to anyone, and we would be delighted to have her house sit for us again!”
“She was awesome taking care of our cats! She’s very good at giving oral medication so I felt comfortable with her giving meds to our boy. Thank you so much!!”
“This was our first experience… Caitlyn was patient with questions & gave prompt feedback. My cat trio enjoyed the first drop in visit this weekend. It will give me peace of mind to have someone reliable & caring if I do more traveling.”

“Our cat Ashley is shy, anxious, and not super trusting of strangers. After just a few days she and Meaghan were fast friends. This is the second time we’ve hired Meaghan to take care of our girl and she continues to do such a spectacular job of it. I was so thrilled to see how well Meaghan was able to coax our girl out of her shell and am so comfortable having Meaghan in the house. We will for sure go with Meaghan for all future cat sitting opportunities.”
“Courtney was great! She sent me pictures every visit, checked in and out when she dropped in, took care of my plants, and when she dropped off my key, my cats ran to greet her, obviously having enjoyed the play time with her. I will definitely book Courtney again.”
“Katie took such good care of my kitties! She stopped in prior to our scheduled pet sitting to meet my cats, which was much appreciated. She did everything I asked, and made an effort to give my kitties some playtime, even though they were being shy. She provided lots of pics and feedback after each visit, which I love to see, as I worry about my girls when I can’t be home with them. We will definitely be using her services again! ?”

Afterwards, my puppy Bianca and Angela spent some time outside, and that's when I knew this was a wonderful match. I trust Angela with my dog, and I'd recommend her to any dog owner who wants outstanding services.”

About: I’ve cared for many different animals throughout my life, including mammals, birds, reptiles/amphibians, exotics, farm animals, and wildlife. I’ve cared for pets of friends and family. I have experience with overnight sitting in the pet’s home. I also have experience caring for senior and special needs animals. I spent 6 months as a volunteer at a vet clinic assisting with exams and surgical procedures, and I am currently exploring career paths in animal sciences and wildlife rehabilitation. I have lots of availability to care for your fur babies! I work part-time as a waitress while exploring different careers in the field of animal behavior and sciences. I have the flexibility to accommodate to your schedule and needs. I can be available on most weekends and holidays. I also accept same-day bookings. I prefer to care for animals in their own home where they feel most comfortable. As well as walking in areas they are familiar with. I always make sure to maintain pet safety in the home such as keeping doors/windows/gates shut and keeping hazardous items and toxic plants out of reach or locked away.
About: What sets me apart is my hands-on experience and genuine love for dogs of all ages. I worked at a dog kennel for two years, where I cared for dogs with all kinds of temperaments, ages, and needs. I’m experienced with senior dog care and I’m comfortable with puppies too—whether it’s crate training, potty breaks, or just keeping up with their energy! Your pet’s comfort and safety are always my top priority. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine since I have a pretty open and flexible schedule. I’m most available Tuesday through Friday between 11:30 AM and 4:30 PM, which works great for midday walks or drop ins. That said, I’m always happy to discuss and make arrangements that work best for you and your pet! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort always come first. I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, needs, and personality to make sure they feel secure and loved. I keep a clean, pet-friendly environment and follow any instructions you provide whether that’s feeding schedules or favorite toys. I also provide regular updates so you can feel confident and at ease while you're away.
About: Hello friends! My name is Londiwe I'm 19f I recently graduated high school and am excited to embark on a career in pet care. I love both dogs and cats! I'm experienced with taking care of cats, I had a cat for 4 years so i'm familiar with cleaning the litter box, feeding, washing, and playing with cats. As for dogs i'm familiar with them in the sense of being around them through friends/family and I adore dogs. When I was really young i would go to a pet store where you could see or play with puppies and I loved it. I'm aware also with dogs that if I were to pet sit I would have to make sure they're taken care of like: fed, played with, and in their cage whenever the client says they're suppose to be. I also provide unlimited cuddles/pets/love for both dogs and cats. :) I'm currently free to dog walk or petsit any day of the week and if not then I would most certainly let the client know beforehand and try to be flexible with my schedule. The services I offer are dog walking and pet sitting in the clients home. I currently don't have any pets but if I were to, I would feed and play with the dog or cat in question and clean up after any mess they may make and basically treat them as family.
About: I have had dogs my whole life but 2 of my dogs gave birth to 11 puppies in October of 2022 and I helped take care of them all until they were ready to go to their new homes. I kept one of the puppies and have taken care of her since she was a newborn so I am very familiar around all types of dogs. I am currently working part time but am working towards having my own pet business one day. My hope is to meet new people and create lasting relationships that could lead to business opportunities I will make sure your pets are getting enough attention and exercise when you are away and will treat them like they are my own.
“Melody provided quality care to my Labrador while i was away. She followed directions, provided great updates, and demonstrated exceptional flexibility and was willing to adapt to my schedule. I highly recommend and am excited to rebook with her!”
About: Since childhood, friends and neighbors have always relied on me to watch their pets! I grew up with dogs but do not own one now due to housing and have two kitties. I am also experienced with large farm animals and safety when handling and being around them. This translates to dogs as well, for safety we must remember we can never 100% predict an animals behavior. I maintain one part time job aside from home animal care, so we will discuss your custom scheduling! Mornings afternoons evenings or frequent visits for medical reasons can be managed based on your needs! Thank you so much for reading and considering me for services While unable to host pets at my home, I always follow the owners instructions closely and pay attention to detail regarding an animals home turf!! I would never disrespect the animals home and space.
About: I’ve always had a passion for animals which brought me into the veterinary field 12 years ago as a kennel attendant, I loved the job however I didn’t feel all the animals boarding were always getting one on one attention. Over the last 12 years I’ve gone to school and graduated as a Veterinary Assistant/Veterinary Technician, currently in school for my B.A in Veterinary Technology. Taking care of animals is truly my passion whether it be in my hospital, at home or for family and friends, all pets truly get treated as if they were my own. It truly gives me joy knowing I’ve made a small difference. With all that has been stated above I do have a full time job as a ER/ICU Veterinary Nurse. Thank you for taking the time to view my profile and the best of luck in your search for the perfect pet sitter My current ER work schedule is Mon-Wed 8am to 6pm and every other Sunday 8am to 4pm. I do have hour lunches if needed. Also I will add since making my profile active again, I am a single mother to a adorable 14 month old little boy. So with that being said I would only be able to book house sittings when he is with his dad. ALL pets in my care are treated like my own. ALL animals in my care are always treated with respect, love and most importantly compassion
About: Hi there! I’m Kaylee, a passionate and experienced pet care professional. With 5 years of hands-on experience in animal care, I have worked across a variety of environments, including doggy daycares, boarding facilities, and grooming salons. My background has given me a deep understanding of animal behavior and the specialized care different pets require. I truly love what I do—caring for your pets brings me so much joy, and I am committed to providing them with the same love, patience, and attention they receive from their family! I am very flexible and happy to work around your schedule. To make sure I am the perfect match for you and your pet, I offer a complimentary meet-and-greet before our first booking. This gives us a chance to get to know each other and ensures your pet feels comfortable and excited to see me! Have any questions? Please feel free to reach out. I would love to chat about your pet care needs and how I can help! My Approach to Care I understand that every pet is unique, with their own personality, routine, and set of needs. I pride myself on providing personalized, attentive care tailored specifically to your pet's requirements. Whether your dog needs extra exercise, a specific routine, or just some extra companionship, I am here to help.
About: I live on a farm with lots of animals and have been caring for them for as long as I can remember. I love both cats and dogs of every age — from tiny puppies to gentle seniors — and I make sure each pet gets the care and attention they need. Your pet will enjoy plenty of room to run, play, and explore, but they will always be under my watchful eye. Safety and comfort come first here. The farm is a calm, natural environment where animals feel relaxed, loved, and at home. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member and make sure they have a happy, safe, and fun stay! 🐾 I’m a part-time student and I live at home, which means I have a very flexible schedule. My classes are spaced out, so I’m home throughout the day. Because of that, I’m able to give pets consistent attention, regular potty breaks, playtime, and supervision. Taking care of animals is already part of my everyday life on the farm, so your pet naturally fits into my routine. They’ll never be left alone for long periods — I’m either outside with the animals, studying at home, or right nearby where I can keep a close, watchful eye on them. I care for pets in a calm farm environment with plenty of safe outdoor space to explore and play. Pets stay inside our home with me and are treated like part of the family — no kennels unless requested. I keep a close, watchful eye on them at all times, whether we’re inside relaxing or outside getting exercise. We follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible: meal times, walks, play style, treats, and any special needs. I’m used to caring for both high-energy pets and slower senior animals, and I adjust activities to what makes your pet feel happy and secure.

I know what its like finding someone who is trustworthy to care for my dog when I need to travel for work or personal vacation. It can be a bit stressful looking for a good sitter but I can assure you that your dog will be in good hands.
About: When I was 10 I joined a dog training program through my school, that’s where my training experience began. I provide a premium, low-volume dog care experience for owners who want their dog to have more one-on-one attention in a calm home environment. Your dog won’t be just one of many in a crowded space. I keep my care more personal so each dog gets plenty of attention, supervision, and outdoor time. I have a big yard for dogs to enjoy, but my indoor space is smaller, so I am very intentional about keeping the number of dogs low. That means I can focus on your dog’s comfort, safety, and overall experience much more closely. This is a great fit for dogs who do better with a quieter setting and for owners who value quality of care over high-volume boarding or daycare. I generally only take one to a few dogs at a time unless they are from the same household. I have a lot of experience with senior dogs. I took care of my childhood dog for 17 years of her long, beautiful life. I have experience working with small senior dogs specifically and I know all the little things that they appreciate. I also have experience with large dogs and can handle very big strong dogs. I also love hiking with dogs so if you have an energetic dog you need to burn off energy I am your guy. I have an acre yard with a fenced in front yard in a nice area. Any dog that boards with me would be treated like my own dog and let out very frequently to go to the bathroom and play outside. I would always remain home with your dog. Thank you for considering me and I hope to meet your pet soon! I’m currently a fully remote student so I am fully available. If I board a pet I will be with them full time to make sure they receive the care they deserve. I have a fenced in front yard, and a good amount of unfenced land in the back. My dog is very friendly and would keep your pet great company. He loves dogs and cats. I can easily crate your dog if needed, but would love to give your dog the pet experience and treat them like my own. I live in a nice are and have great access to the woods nearby as well.

“Kristina and Jordan took such amazing care of my pup while I was away. Kristina and Jordan treated her with so much love, and sent many pictures and videos during the stay. I’m definitely an anxious pet parent, but their care actually allowed me to relax knowing that she was in the best hands possible and having a great little vacation of her own. I couldn’t recommend them more. Thank you guys so much!”

“Chloe's place was so much fun for my dog because he was surrounded by good caring people who have their own dogs each with a different energy level, all very chill and easy going. My dog made a best friend to play with all day. I'm sure they must have slept well at some point.”

“We had a great experience with Kate! Our dog, Sampson, stayed in her home and was very well cared for. Communication was easy and consistent, and we felt completely comfortable knowing our pup was in good hands. Sampson is pretty easygoing, but it was clear he was treated with attention and kindness. We will definitely book with them again.”
“Katie watched our dog, who is almost 2, for a couple of nights recently. I was very comfortable dropping him off and leaving him with her and her family.

We will definitely use Katie again to take care of Linus.”
