“He is a very good dog sitter, and I highly recommend him! My dog is always excited to go over there, which gives me a lot of peace of mind. He keeps me updated with pictures and communication throughout the stay, and he’s also very flexible and understanding. You can tell he genuinely cares about the dogs he watches!”

“Morgan did an excellent job taking care of our cats while we were away. They loved the Cuddles, Playtime and Treats and the Photos every day were an added bonus. We HIGHLY recommend her.”


“If we could give Margarette 10 stars we would! Our cats loved her and she put our minds at ease when we went on vacation and had to leave our furbabies. One of our cats already misses her!!! Thank you Margarette for being so good to our kiddos!!!”

“Carly was great with my four kitties. Despite my kitties not being the most social, Carly sought them out and would make an effort for them to feel relaxed around her. I definitely recommend her and I look forward to future bookings.”


“We were so pleased with the care our feline friends received. Chekerra was incredibly attentive and spent quality time playing with them. It was also very helpful that she went the extra mile to bring in our mail. We also had contractors coming to install flooring during our absence.And she worked masterfully to secure our pets so that they could be safe and not interfere with the crew when they did their work. She also informed us promptly after the construction was done that.The crew had left the house a mess. Her concern for our home in addition to our pets was very special. We truly appreciate the exceptional service provided. We will definitely be reaching out again for future needs.”

“Want to thank Hannah for short notice booking, great meet and greet with myself and dogs. Thank you for the pics, the dogs liked you 2 which i feel pets know good people. Again thank you for such short notice and being able to do so. It was very much appreciated. Randy S,”

She also took the time to clean up my cats food bowls and spent some time brushing her. I will happily use Sandy again the next time I'm away from home. Thanks for such a great experience!”

About: I LOVE ANIMALS! Growing up my family has always had animals. We currently have 2 dogs of our own. They are both very friendly. I love taking dogs on walks, to the dog park and making sure they get out and active! I make sure to always add in time to take our dogs for a walk or the dog park, or some other type of exercise. If we are gone long we have someone who comes and lets our dogs out of the house so they are not inside for too long. Our dogs are like our kids, they get their regular meals with treats, they have rules that they need to follow based on what me and my husband have agreed too.
About: Hi! I’ve been raising my 6-year-old male Husky since he was a 3-month-old puppy, so I understand structure, training consistency, and high-energy personalities. We also care for our 16-year-old female Toy Poodle. Senior care has taught me patience, attentiveness, and how to manage age-related changes with calm and routine. I personally handle bathing, brushing, nail trimming, and grooming for both dogs. Our home has a secure backyard with a dog door for safe bathroom access, and daily walks are part of our routine. We are a family home with a child, so I only accept dogs that are comfortable in a home environment. I work part-time and manage family responsibilities, so I require advance scheduling. Weekday mid-afternoon availability may be limited, but I’m happy to discuss options to ensure it’s a good fit for both sides.
“Karin and her son were wonderful dog sitters to our two dachshunds. They sent us updates and photos the entire time we were gone and I know the girls were as spoiled as if they were with us!”

“I’m so thankful that I’ve found Cynthia to care for my sweet Sadie Bear! She truly cares about the dogs in her care, and I feel comforted and relieved to know Sadie is so loved and well cared for when I have to be at work. Already booked again with her!”

“Seth did an amazing job caring for our dog. He was a great communicator, his house was easy to find and he took pictures throughout the day to send to us. We would definitely use Seth again.”

About: We have a cat and a dog of our own and they are like family for us! They are our babies! Let us love yours like our own as well! I would have all the animals if I could!

“Had to find a sitter this week at the last minute due to moving. Sandy was pleasant and kept me updated on my babies. I felt comfortable leaving them with her daily. Will definitely book Sandy again for doggy sitting.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind for many years. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets... I love dogs, I’m a fur-baby mom myself I’m currently a stay at mom, I have plenty of time to play with your fur-babies and take them for walks. I’m available Monday-Saturday 8am-8pm. My fur-baby is very friendly and she enjoy playing with other dogs. I don't use cages, however if you prefer your dog caged, I can accommodate
About: While growing up, there’s never been a time where an animal was not in my home. From dogs to horses to chickens to cats and much more. I currently have 2 rescues and know how much your four legged friends mean to you. I promise with any service you book with me, I will make sure to care for your pet just as much as I would care for my own. I’ve always loved animals and hope to pursue a career in taking care of animals as a zookeeper. I will make sure your pets will get plenty of walk and play time as well as making sure they are as happy as can be! I promise you won’t be disappointed when booking a service with me!
“Kimberly has always done a great job with our elderly dog. Bailey loves spending time there and doesnt even look back when we drop her off. Kimberly updates us frequently and checks ib from time to time. We'll definitely continue scheduling with Kimberly in the future!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs throughout my whole life! I take them for walks, dog sit at home where they are comfortable, keep them occupied while you are away, making sure they are entertained, fed and exercised! Your dog will never feel lonely or bored! My schedule is wide open as this is my primary position, so as long as I don’t have a booking my schedule is all yours! I will take them for walks/outside to play/to use the bathroom. I will feed them as instructed for their nutritional needs and if wanted i can put background noise on(maybe shows/movies you watch at home) to make them feel more comfortable! Whatever they need I will provide!
“Ok, so, I held off on writing this review for a while until I processed and let me dog heal. Now that I have, I think it’s important everyone knows the kind of person Kira is. My dog, Winnie, was attacked by another dog while in Kira's care, and the way they handled the situation was nothing short of exemplary. Kira responded quickly and calmly, ensuring Winnie received immediate attention and the necessary medical care. She kept me informed every step of the way, which greatly eased my anxiety during such a stressful time. (For the record, Winnie was attacked by an aggressive dog at the WWC dog park which I gave permission for her to go to, so it was not her fault. The owners of the dog also ran away so they could not be held responsible.) Despite the trauma, Winnie was happy and well-cared for when I picked her up. It's clear that Kira genuinely loves animals and is dedicated to their well-being. Winnie had surgery the next day because the other dog ripped her gums from her jaw. She got 15 stitches but has recovered so well and is going great! Kira has checked in several times to see how Winnie’s doing. If you're looking for a responsible, compassionate, and reliable dog sitter, look no further. She truly cares about the pets they look after, and I am incredibly grateful for the exceptional care they provided to Winnie during such a stressful day. I can’t imagine how it would’ve gone if her sitter was someone less caring.”

About: I have owned, cared for and trained pets most of my life. Neighbors, friends, and family have entrusted me to walk, feed, bathe and love their pets. I have experience caring for senior pets as well. Since I don't have pets of my own, I am able to give your senior pet the individualized attention he/she needs. I recently lost my 12 year old Tuxedo cat, Bandit. She was the love of my life, and I miss her dearly. I'm looking forward to showing your fur baby all the love I can while you're away. I will do whatever it takes to ease their anxiety, knowing their owner is away. Hello, thank you for considering me. I recently retired from a 30 year design career with Interiors by Decorating Den, so I am home all day to provide a safe , loving, and structured environment for your pet. I am very dependable, responsible and trustworthy. I have provided boarding for family and friends as well as clients over the years. My grandson visits some weekends and will love having another pet to play and cuddle with at night. There is no area off limits in my home. Your fur babies are welcome to sit, stay, and play on the furniture, sleep on the beds, or lounge in the sun by the patio door. If your pet is crate trained, you are welcome to bring his/her crate or for your convenience, I have a small and medium crate available. Outdoors, I have a large grassy backyard for playtime and exercise. I have balls, ropes, and frisbees for your fur babies to play with as well.
“Talk about top-notch! I’ve had nothing but excellent experiences with Morgan. I can tell how much care and effort Morgan gives from the excitement and anticipation I see Mochi have on the doggy cam, everyday during her visits! She brings treats and sits down to play with him which really helped to build a bond between them. I’ve even noticed that Mochi is less combative with his harness and collar since Morgan has started helping out. She takes pictures during every visit and will even restart Netflix shows on the tv before she leaves which helps keep Mochi entertained until I get home. Another thing that makes Morgan a wonderful walker/sitter is her flexible schedule. This means that I can always count on Morgan to make sure Mochi is taken care of while I’m at work. I can’t recommend her enough!”

About: I’ve been dog sitting for the past 10 years, I have also fostered many dogs! Additionally I worked in a vets office for a over a year and I am comfortable giving medications and providing any other special care! I recently stopped working so my availability has opened up a ton! I have plenty of time to provide requested pet care services, even with last minute requests. We have a large unfenced yard but will keep your pup on a leash/longline to ensure they stay in the yard, they will always be supervised when outside! I would prefer a meet and greet ahead of time to make sure everyone gets along well, we can also keep your pup separate from our dogs if you prefer 😊.
About: Hi! My name is Lauren, and caring for dogs is something I genuinely love. I understand how important it is to find someone you can fully trust with your pets, and I strive to make every dog feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I have hands on experience working at a vet owned doggy daycare and boarding facility, where I cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, temperaments, and needs. Through that experience, I’ve become comfortable handling: * Puppies and high-energy dogs * Senior dogs needing extra patience and care * Dogs with medical needs and medication schedules * Reactive or dog-aggressive dogs * Anxious or shy dogs who need a calmer approach Because of my background, I’ve learned how to read dog body language, recognize stress signals, and adapt to each dog’s unique personality and routine. My goal is always to make your pet feel as relaxed and happy as possible while keeping you updated for peace of mind. I currently only offer care in the owner’s home because I believe many dogs are happiest and least stressed in their familiar environment. Staying in their own home allows them to keep their routine, sleep comfortably, and receive one-on-one attention and care. Since my husband is currently deployed, I’m back home full-time, I have a very flexible schedule and am available 24/7 for your pet’s needs. This means plenty of potty breaks, playtime, walks, cuddles, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. Not just quick drop-ins. I know leaving your pet with someone else can be nerve wracking, so communication is very important to me. I’ll always keep you updated with photos, videos, and messages so you can relax knowing your dog is in caring and capable hands. I treat every dog like they’re my own, and I would love the opportunity to care for your furry family member! Pet care easily fits into my daily routine since I currently have a very flexible schedule. I’m available for morning, afternoon, evening, and overnight care depending on your needs. I do my best to follow your dog’s normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. Consistency is always my goal, whether that’s feeding times, walks, or potty breaks. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Since I provide care in the owner’s home, your pet stays in a familiar environment, which helps reduce stress and anxiety. I carefully follow all instructions provided, including feeding schedules, medications, and behavior guidelines. With my background working at a doggy daycare and boarding facility, I’m experienced in handling dogs of all temperaments, including puppies, senior dogs, medical needs, and dogs that may be reactive or need extra patience. I always use calm, attentive handling and prioritize positive, stress-free interactions
About: I’ve had pets for 25+ years, and I truly can’t imagine life without them. Whether it’s giving meds, keeping a routine, or just making sure your pet feels safe and loved, I bring years of hands-on experience and a whole lot of heart. I treat every animal like family because that’s exactly what they are. I work from home with a super laid-back schedule, so I’m around pretty much all day to keep your pets company. Whether they need regular potty breaks, playtime, cuddles, or just someone to chill with, I’m here for it! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I create a calm, pet-friendly environment where they can relax, play, and feel right at home. I always follow the routines you provide and keep a close eye on behavior or anything out of the ordinary. I believe trust is earned, so I’m happy to give updates, photos, or videos to keep you in the loop. Whether it’s a walk, a drop-in, or a longer stay, you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.

“Ashley was great! Bluey was welcomed as one of the family and she made herself at home. If you are looking for someone to love your furbaby like you do, I highly recommend her.”
“He is a very good dog sitter, and I highly recommend him! My dog is always excited to go over there, which gives me a lot of peace of mind. He keeps me updated with pictures and communication throughout the stay, and he’s also very flexible and understanding. You can tell he genuinely cares about the dogs he watches!”

“Eve was absolutely wonderful! She sent pictures of my two sweeties. One showed her hugging my Australian shepherd. She not only cared for them, she loved them. I’ll definitely use her again.”

“Carly was amazing with Haven while I was out of town. I absolutely loved the photo check-ins, they gave me so much peace of mind and it was clear Haven was having a great time. I also really appreciated that she was able to socialize with other dogs; I could tell she had an absolute blast. Highly recommend Carly and I will definitely be booking with her again!”

“They were so great, and gave our pup a home away from home! We got pictures of our dog while he was there ans her communication was always excellent! We would recommend Karin and her son to anyone in need of a pet sitter :-)”

“Kimberly and family, including 4 dogs, made Rocket feel right at home. It’s like sending him off to the cousins house to play! Plan to visit with them all again for a longer stay.”

About: I'm super flexible and can tailor my approach to fit exactly what your pet needs! Plus, I'm all about making sure your furry friend feels safe, loved, and has a blast while you're away. I make pet care a priority by structuring my day around their needs. Walks, playtime, and feeding times are all carefully planned to ensure they get the attention and care they deserve. It's like having a furry, fun-sized boss who dictates my schedule! Safety first! Whether it's my place or yours, I make sure the environment is free of hazards. Trust is built through consistent, loving care, and I always respect your home and rules. Basically, I treat every pet like they're my own and every home like it's my grandma's – with lots of love and respect!

About: I’ve spent years caring for pets for family and friends, including dogs and cats with different needs and personalities. I’m experienced with daily routines like feeding, walks, playtime, and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for. I’m patient, attentive, and always focused on keeping pets happy and safe. My current hours of work are 7:30 am - 3:30ish pm. I’m available throughout the weekend definitely and may possibly be available throughout the day sometimes. I provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment whether pets are in my home or their own. I follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific care instructions like medications or special diets. I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection so they feel relaxed and secure.
“Mrs. Sandy was amazing with our babies!! She sent us updates and pictures, answered every question that we had, and put our worries to rest about being separated from our fur kids. 100% would recommend her (and our pups would too- they loved her!!) ❤️”

About: We have a cat and a dog of our own and they are like family for us! They are our babies! Let us love yours like our own as well! I would have all the animals if I could! We love spending time with our babies and would love to take care of yours just like you would! I will be home with them all day and night! Someone will be here around the clock unless we have to run a quick errand to which they won’t be here alone long! We are working on fencing in a portion of our 13 acres to care for others pets! We live way off the road and they have lots of area to play! We have plenty of area to walk them and let them play.
“She did a great job! She sent plenty of updates and pictures. My flight got delayed by 24 hours. She was able to keep my dog for an extra day and was flexible on the pick up time. I would definitely use her again.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I’ve had them all growing up. I like going on walks or jogs with the dogs or keeping the cats area clean. I’m a tech at the hospital so my schedule varies sometimes but I will always update based on my schedule. I can take pets on walks after or before shift (7a-7p) Very careful about dogs and leashes especially if there are no fences. I like brushing dogs and making sure cats boxes stay clean. Making sure hey have food and water is important.
