“Jen immediately put us at ease. Her positive energy and love of dogs came through at our very first meeting. She regularly sent us notes and pics of our dogs, which we really appreciated. Thank you Jen! We will definitely call again if we need a sitter!!”
“Emily was great! We dropped our 1 year-old Hound-mix for a week while we went on vacation and couldn’t be more satisfied! She gave us constant updates and pics/videos to provide that piece of mind we were hoping for. Utley seemed to really love it there and we will be using her in the future for sure!”
“Mike and his family are so friendly! We have a 5 years old golden retriever. They did a great job and took good card of him. They sent pictures to me everyday and are very patient to him. Mike helped us give medication to our dog since he had ear infection before we left, and now his condition is much better. Thank you Mike! You will always be our first priority in the future!”
“Jilesa was so accommodating, she made us comfortable when we were running behind to pick up our dog. Location was so great, I am pretty sure with all the animals she has on her farm, my dog had nothing but great time. Definitely recommended!”
“I’m thankful for Kari & Jospeh’s family for loving and caring my baby like their own, it was stress free time during his stay we’re I don’t have to worry about how he is doing since he is in great hands. My boy would love to come back again,”
“We are so grateful for the wonderful care Nikkita provided for our dog, Pepe. She was incredibly attentive and went above and beyond to ensure Pepe was comfortable and happy during his stay. She was also very flexible with our pick-up and drop-off times, which made things so much easier for us. We loved receiving regular updates and pictures, which helped us feel connected and at ease. It’s clear she truly cares about her furry guests, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend!”
“This was our second time booking with Jill and Thomas, and once again, we had a wonderful experience! They took care of cucu for an entire week. They were incredibly responsive, provided daily updates (which gave us so much peace of mind), and were always quick to answer any questions we had. It’s clear they truly care about the pets they watch. We are so grateful to have found someone we trust with our pup, and we’ll definitely be booking again! :)”
“We had the absolute pleasure of having Brittany watch our Toby for extended stay while we were on vacation. From the first meet and greet, we were certain we made the right choice as it is apparent Brittany genuinely loves animals and pet sitting. Her beautiful home and farm is such a welcoming place for animals of all kinds and our dog even used the pool for swimming. We really enjoyed the daily pictures and updates from Brittany to put our minds at ease. She even gave our dog a bath at the end. Highly recommend Brittany if you are looking for a loving pet sitter!”
About: We have been a dog family for the past 11.5 years! We love our dogs so much! We have an 11 year old Australian Shepherd/Border Collie mix and a 2 year old Aussiedoodle. They are sweet and fun and love other dogs! We have 4 kiddos as well who love caring for the dogs including our 12 and 11 year old girls who love taking the dogs for walks! We are a homeschooling family so we are home most of the time and don't kennel our dogs at all while we are home! We have a huge fenced-in backyard that the dogs love to roam and run around in! Playing fetch in the back yard is a highlight in our home!
“Candace was wonderful with our dog, Lincoln. Since he is a rescue that was a stray, Lincoln is unsure when first meeting people, along with being a bit temperamental at times. Candace and her family made him a part of their family, even letting Lincoln sleep with them. We were happy to hear that Lincoln and Candace’s youngest child were buddies for the weekend. Lincoln came home tired from his busy weekend. Were are so thankful of the care Lincoln received and the updates we received. We will definitely use Candace again and would highly recommend her and her family to others.”
“Justin and Steph were amazing again!! They made my dog feel at home and she was a happy girl when I picked her up! I travel 45 min to have my dog stay at their place because they are just so good with her! They were great with communication and sending tons of updates and pictures!”
“Barb was fantastic! We chose her because of her experience with dogs of all ages, especially older pups. Although our pup was a bit nervous, she seemed to settle in well and made herself at home. Really appreciated the updates and pics to let us know all was good.”
“Rackeem was awesome with my dogs while I was on vacation! He took excellent care of my fur babies and I highly recommend him! He provides daily updates and pictures so you can be assured your pets are safe and doing well while in his care. He's also a great trainer as well! He helped my very active 14 month old pup 🐶 stop pulling so much while on our walks.”
“I can't even express how deeply grateful I am to have found someone as exceptionally loving and thoughtful as Patricia to take care of our dog while we were away. It can be concerning when trying a caregiver for the first time, but she completely exceeded expectations and made our dog feel right at home. I could tell from the videos, photos and descriptions that our dog had so much fun and was so happy, even with her tending to have a hard time opening up to new people. Our dog is almost 7, and this is by far the best time she's ever had away from us. Very much looking forward to the next opportunity for Patricia to dog sit for us again.”
“Sandra is an excellent sitter! Our dog Chico was very happy to be with her! Definitely we will go back to her as needed and certainly highly recommend Sandra as a pet sitter!”
“Laura was a fantastic dog sitter! She was flexible with scheduling pick up/drop off, sent an update with a photo, and our pup seemed to have a great time with her. We will definitely use her services again!”

“Tiffani was so responsible and receptive to my “shy” guys. I was so relieved going out of town and using a new care person for the first time in four years to get the feeling that all was being done as if I were home. Takes a lot of pressure off the normal stress of being away from home.”
“My pets Daisy and Missy were very happy when Delany would make her daily visits. Delany was always on time and very conscientious with making sure the kitties had fresh food and water and clean litter boxes. Delany went the extra and made sure they had lots of playtime and most important sent me lots of pictures with her update. I’m very happy with the care my pets received with Delany and would love to have her care for my kitties the next time I travel.”
“Deanna was amazing. I needed someone to help give medication to my older cat while I was recovering from surgery. Mojito is not the most socially adventurous cat but Deanna did a great job working with him and I did not have to worry about him getting his meds. Deanna is super friendly and I would highly recommend her to anyone needing assistance with their fur babies.”
“Cameryn was great! She watched my 2 kitties while I was away and they loved seeing her. She stopped by each day, fed lots of treats, and sent me pictures each time. It’s nice to know I can trust someone with my boys when I go away. Thank you Cameryn!”
About: I am a proud cat lady and cat mommy. With two of my own cats and experience loving and caring for many others, your feline fur babies are safe with me. I understand the importance of honoring a cat’s personal space and preferences, and I know that every cat is unique. It is my mission to ensure every cat I interact with is comfortable and confident in knowing that they are safe around me. I have experience with all cat personality types. Having cats of my own, cat safety is engrained in my practice. I am consistently hyper aware of open doors, cat proofing spaces, litter box cleaning, etc. I am also well versed in navigating pet dynamics in homes with both cats and dogs. Lastly, I am very educated and experienced with noticing cat behaviors, body language, and vocal communication; which helps me evaluate a cat’s mood or needs at any given time.
About: I’ve been pet sitting since 2018 and have experience caring for cats, dogs, and birds. I currently have a cat and a bird of my own, and I’ve also had dogs in the past. I’m an Agriscience Education major and took Animal Science in high school, so I’ve always had a strong interest in animals and their care. I’m comfortable following feeding routines, cleaning litter boxes and cages, giving medications when needed, and making sure pets get plenty of attention and playtime. I know every pet has their own personality and routine, so I take the time to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away! I’m a college student, so my schedule can vary depending on my classes, but I have flexibility throughout the week for pet care. I’m able to plan visits around my class schedule and make sure pets receive the care and attention they need. I’m also happy to communicate ahead of time to work out a schedule that fits both you and your pet! I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they are in a safe, comfortable, and clean environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routine and any specific instructions they leave for me. I’m respectful of your home and always make sure doors, gates, cages, and other areas are secure before I leave. I also understand that some pets can be nervous around new people, so I’m patient and give them time to get comfortable with me. My goal is for both you and your pets to feel safe and confident while you’re away!
About: Hi! I'm Jordan, a lifelong animal lover with a special appreciation for cats and their unique personalities. I understand that every cat is different—some love attention and playtime, while others prefer quiet companionship and routine. My goal is to make sure your cat feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. Whether that means feeding, litter box maintenance, play sessions, administering basic care, or simply providing company, I'll treat your cat with patience, kindness, and respect. I'll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your feline family member is in good hands.
“Rebecca took great care of our dog. She was very dependable and on time even in poor weather conditions. Our dog was very comfortable with her. We would highly recommend her to anyone.”
About: I’ve taken care of several cats in my life, and now have the pleasure of having my own cat! I have experience with kittens, adult and senior cats. I love spending time with my cat playing with toys, brushing him and cuddling. He’s my greatest friend.
“Sam is hands down the best! She is always flexible with her availability and takes such great care of both of our cats. She plays, feeds and gives our babies love and attention just as we would and there is no one I trust more to care for them when we are away. Don’t hesitate to book with Sam!”
“Mike did a great job for us. We were away for an extended vacation. He kept us well informed about our cats but also things at our home. A neighbor left mail on our porch and an outdoor ornament blew off our house. He notified us on both issues. The ornaments were brought in and he checked our community mailbox to confirm our mail was being held by USPS. During our vacation we received a boil water notice; We informed Mike and he brought bottled water for our pets. It’s the second time we used him and I’m sure we will be using his services again.”
“Breanna is Great! This was our first time using the service and we were nervous leaving our babies that now require medication (insulin/supplements) however after one conversation I felt comfort and reassured they were in good hands, and they certainly were! Timely check-ins, cute pictures, and most importantly, successful delivery of their medications. Highly Recommend!”

About: I have 6 years of experience taking care of 4 cats and my dog!! I can feed, give water, take walks, scoop boxes, and entertain with toys. I am also excellent with anxious pets and those who need a little extra care and love. I have a gentle voice and will always try to be aware of your pets' comfort level before approaching. I am currently in college, so I go to class various times during the week! Because of this, I may need to adjust arrival times depending on my class schedule and what days you need me for. This also means that I am good for vacations and other short-term jobs. I will work hard to provide a safe environment for all animals in accordance with guidelines set by my clients. For dogs, I prefer a fenced in yard, but will consider leashed walks depending on the size of your dog.
About: About Me: I am a teacher, pet mom (to both dogs & cats!), and lover of all animals. I lead my life with empathy, which makes me an extremely patient and effective pet care provider.

My Schedule: Until my summer ends, I am available almost daily. Once school starts, I am available on weekends and week day evenings. During these times, I can do check ins, feedings, walks, play times, or overnights. I am comfortable with week day overnights, if your pet is able to be alone during my typical 8 hour work day.

I am comfortable with many styles of pet care including crating, walking, outdoor and indoor play, anxiety management, and more. As a mom of an anxious rescue pup, I understand the importance of providing an animal a safe space. I make it my mission to help all pets feel comfortable and confident around me.

About: Dog owners and their dogs will love many things about the care that I provide. First, I have always shown love and care to every dog that I have met and all these dogs have responded in a positive manner. Second, I believe in a healthy lifestyle for my dogs (as well as myself, haha) and take my dogs for walks everyday, and feeding them their recommended portion of dog food with minimal people food. Third, keeping my dogs on a daily routine helps tremendously as well as their owners. Growing up I have had a Schnauzer (Mickey), Springer Spaniel (Snickers), Springer Spaniel (Princess), two box turtles (Fred and Wilma), and currently own two Puggles (Liberty & Bell). All the dogs I have trained to not go to the bathroom in the house, and many tricks. I work full-time (7am-330pm) and I am available Monday-Friday before 7am and after 330pm. Saturday and Sunday I will be available all day. If you need more information, please don't hesitate to contact me, Thank you.
About: Hi! We are Hannah and Bierina. In order to provide the most flexible care possible, we work together to care for your fur babies. Quality care for animals is our forever top priority. Between us, we have trained puppies, had many senior dogs and dogs with special needs.

“Jilesa was so accommodating, she made us comfortable when we were running behind to pick up our dog. Location was so great, I am pretty sure with all the animals she has on her farm, my dog had nothing but great time. Definitely recommended!”
“I’m thankful for Kari & Jospeh’s family for loving and caring my baby like their own, it was stress free time during his stay we’re I don’t have to worry about how he is doing since he is in great hands. My boy would love to come back again,”
“Highly recommend Karen! First time having to find a sitter for my puppy, Karen was awesome communicate very well. Even got picture updates through out the week as my puppy socialized with the other dogs. Will be back for sure!”
“This was our second time booking with Jill and Thomas, and once again, we had a wonderful experience! They took care of cucu for an entire week. They were incredibly responsive, provided daily updates (which gave us so much peace of mind), and were always quick to answer any questions we had. It’s clear they truly care about the pets they watch. We are so grateful to have found someone we trust with our pup, and we’ll definitely be booking again! :)”
“We had the absolute pleasure of having Brittany watch our Toby for extended stay while we were on vacation. From the first meet and greet, we were certain we made the right choice as it is apparent Brittany genuinely loves animals and pet sitting. Her beautiful home and farm is such a welcoming place for animals of all kinds and our dog even used the pool for swimming. We really enjoyed the daily pictures and updates from Brittany to put our minds at ease. She even gave our dog a bath at the end. Highly recommend Brittany if you are looking for a loving pet sitter!”
About: I’ve had animals all my life. From dogs to cats to exotics. My pathway in school was for animal science which I have my certification from that class. I also have worked at a vet before so I would say I definitely have some experience! Right now I mostly work from home so I’m pretty flexible. Whether that be for boarding or potty breaks I can pretty much make anything work. I have a section of my yard fenced off so they can just go out and potty but also love to take them for walks in my neighborhood! If they get along with other dogs great! If not I can manage to keep everyone separate if boarding is preferred at my house.
“Justin and Steph were amazing again!! They made my dog feel at home and she was a happy girl when I picked her up! I travel 45 min to have my dog stay at their place because they are just so good with her! They were great with communication and sending tons of updates and pictures!”
“Kayla was great and was able to accommodate me and my dog on very short notice. She’s incredibly caring and was great with updating me during my boarding time. Will definitely use her services again.”
“Rackeem was awesome with my dogs while I was on vacation! He took excellent care of my fur babies and I highly recommend him! He provides daily updates and pictures so you can be assured your pets are safe and doing well while in his care. He's also a great trainer as well! He helped my very active 14 month old pup 🐶 stop pulling so much while on our walks.”
“Yvonne and Joe had my young 80 pound bernedoodle as a guest in their home for a bit over a week. The accommodations were awesome which included a fully fenced back yard, providing ample "free" space to roam. Murdoch had ample opportunity to mingle with other dogs in the home. Yvonne and Joe come with many years of dog-sitting experience and knowledge. At no time was Murdoch left un-attended by an adult. He was safe and well taken care of. This was the first time Murdoch was a guest in someone else's home and he definitely pushed his teen/toddler boundaries! I appreciate Yvonne and Joe's patience and hope that Murdoch will be invited back...eventually! :) Thank you again! Heather”
About: My name is Taryn and I have lived with animals all my life. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, birds, horses, fish, chickens, and small snakes. I have two young adult daughters that live at home and share the same passion as I do. I do have a 7yr old mix of my own that enjoys playing with others. If your dog happens to not be dog friendly, no worries; I provide in home dog care, drop in visits and dog walks! My home is clean, quiet, and pet proof. I have a large back yard with plenty of room for your best friend to run and play. We even have trails nearby where we can go on fun adventures! Pets will have free roam of the house so they don’t feel left out, after all they are apart of the family. Your pet(s) will never be alone or feel scared with me as their sitter. I work full time during the week. But I’m available weeknights for drop-ins, walks, and daycare. I’m available Fri-Sunday for the above as well as in home and in my home boarding. I have a large yard and a friendly dog for your pup to play with. If needed, I also have a crate. I don’t like crating my dog so prefer not to crate yours unless instructed by you for specific reasons. Of course they’ll be let out often to use the bathroom and have unlimited access to water. In your home, your pet will be let out when needed/scheduled if they have one, played with, and loved on. No matter where we are, my goal is to make your pet feel safe.
“Sandra is an excellent sitter! Our dog Chico was very happy to be with her! Definitely we will go back to her as needed and certainly highly recommend Sandra as a pet sitter!”
“Our dog Cooper seemed so happy during his overnight boarding. He normally doesn’t eat at first when being boarded but he was enjoying a treat and eating his breakfast within moments of being dropped off. We received thoughtful updates and photos and Cooper was relaxed, comfortable and had settled in so quickly. Fantastic communication and quick responses made our trip stress free; we knew our dog was in good hands!”
“Laura was a fantastic dog sitter! She was flexible with scheduling pick up/drop off, sent an update with a photo, and our pup seemed to have a great time with her. We will definitely use her services again!”
