“Graham and his wife were AMAZING!!! They were so gentle and loving to Brooklyn. They kept me updated on her stay and sent me several pics of her smiling. Brooklyn's stay was over the 4th of July weekend and they made sure to play loud music for her so she wasn't stressed out. I'm so sad that they are moving because Brooklyn had such a great time with them. They were even nice enough to give her a gift at the end of her stay with a toy, homemade treats and a thank you card. PHENOMENAL PEOPLE!!!!”

“Chelsea and her boyfriend, Josh, really helped me out when I was in a tight spot. They are communicative, reliable, and were available on short notice. They took very good care of my dog and he came home happy and healthy. I think my dog really enjoyed playing with their two dogs. I would certainly use their services again.”

About: I have been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember! I have experience with everything from horses and livestock, to birds, reptiles and fish. I am currently working very part time (3 hours a day) at a Kennel. I am usually always home by 11 am and am only away from home for a very short time. I have a large fenced yard, but will crate or kennel pets while unsupervised for a very short amount of time. I spend a majority of my time at home with my own pets and hanging out in the yard.
About: Hello, I have cared for dogs for 6 years and love them to death. I have a lot of energy for your dog or I can chill and pet him all day... whatever your baby wants I'm down! I am very flexible with my schedule due to my work. I work part-time so scheduling with me won't be a problem. If your furry babies have specific times I would be able to do so. I will take care of your pets like they are my own! I will make sure I have detailed instructions so your babies get the same care they would have in your hands. I love walking dogs or chilling with him with cuddle and pets. I am comfortable crating your pet or letting it roam based on your desires whenever I am not present with your pet. I am also knowledgeable in particular behaviors or needs such as anxiety, medication, and old age.
About: I grew up on a farm with dogs and cats and horses and birds. I love animals and have trained many dogs throughout my life. I have a big fenced in yard and my 14 year old dog just passed away, crushing my soul. Until I ever feel ok again to get another dog, I thought I could love someone else’s dog while helping them out! I work from home and only leave the house for errands here and there. I spend the majority of my life on my property working and tinkering around. I have a big fenced in yard and no other dog currently on property. I do have a cat wandering around. I can continue to crate train and love on them all day.
“Leticia did a great job boarding our dog! She was extremely communicative, friendly, and accommodating. You can definitely tell she’s a huge animal lover! Will definitely be booking again.”

“Kerri took excellent care of our senior cat (including giving ear medicine) during our 4 day get-away. She communicated regularly and consistently provided videos and updates. Kerri was also clean and neat & was extremely flexible about modifying our schedule as needed. Highly recommend.”


“Tomi is such a kind and caring person and you can tell instantly. They took such great care of my pet while I was gone and I’m so thankful for Tomi’s gentle and reliable care of him. Tomi is Bun’s friend for life. Thank you so much, Tomi, for taking such great care of him.”

About: I’ve taken care of cats pretty much my whole life between childhood/family pets and helping neighbors. Now in my adulthood I’ve become obsessed with my own two cats, both of which I’ve had since they were kittens (mom & son combo) and they’ve taught me a LOT over the years but most importantly is what unconditional love means. Kitties are just sweet little creatures who each have their own personalities just like humans and I feel it’s important to honor that for all furry friends whether they’re my own or not.
“Jen did everything we talked about. She sent videos of our pack and they all obviously loved her and felt taken care of. I will definitely use her services again. I'm so grateful to have found someone I can trust to love our babies while we're gone. It means the world to me.”
“Aaliyah, thank you for the comprehensive follow-up and for loving my fur baby like he is your own. I know Remy can be a bit overwhelming at times and I’m so thankful that you showed him the love and affection that he needs.”

About: Over the years, I have cared for cats around my neighborhood. Ranging from young healthy kittens to older, more delicate adults. My deep love for animals really shines when given the opportunity to care for your pet.
About: I have hands-on experience raising my own Collie and a lifelong passion for caring for dogs. As a retiree, I have the time and flexibility to give each pet my full attention. I’m patient with playful puppies, gentle with senior dogs, and attentive to individual needs. My priority is building trust, ensuring safety, and creating happy, healthy walks — so every dog feels like they’re part of my family. Now that I’m retired, pet care is a natural and joyful part of my day. I have a flexible schedule and can provide walks, playtime, and companionship whenever they’re needed — mornings, afternoons, or evenings. This means your dog will get reliable care and attention, without being rushed. I prioritize safety and trust above all. When walking dogs, I use secure leashes and select calm, pet-friendly routes to ensure a worry-free experience. Whether in your home or outside, I maintain a comfortable and calm environment, making sure pets have fresh water and plenty of attention. I treat every dog as if they were my own, with gentle care and respect for their individual needs.

“Molly came highly recommended from our usual sitter who was not available during our wedding weekend. Molly had excellent communication leading up to the meet and greet. She truly loves animals and we bonded over our compassion for senior rescues. She took wonderful care of our senior cat while we were away. It was such a relief to know she was in such great hands during a high stress (but exciting!) time in our lives. We will definitely be using Molly again the future!”

About: I’ve been a lover of cats since a young age, and have helped care for friends and neighbors cats throughout my life. I can tailor your cats care to fit their personality — from shy, nervous cats to friendly, social ones. Just let me know your cats preferences and I can meet them at their level!

About: I didn’t get my first cat until i was 18 but I’ve loved them since! Cats are more interesting than dogs in that they definitely each have their own personality! I’d be honored to take care of your cat and figure out who they are! Mahalo!
“I can’t recommend Angelina enough! A dog sitter cancelled on me last minute and she saved the day. She took great care of my pup, was very responsive and friendly, and is quite affordable. I definitely will be contacting her again next time I need help.”

“Chelsea was amazing! She took great care of my cat and loved him like he was her own. She took care of his meds, which was a relief. She made sure the litter box was clean inside and out. I loved getting updates and pictures. Very grateful for her help caring for my cat while I was away.”

“I could not recommend Bailey more, she did an absolutely awesome job taking care of our kitty! Super communicative and went out of her way to make sure he was well taken care of. ☺️ Will definitely book again.”


“Great for house/ pet sitting. Used her while I was 3000 miles and an ocean away for over 10 days. Used her for Christmas drop in to feed. Check in on the cats when I took dogs an hour away for two nights over Christmas. Swell communication. The animals love her! So do I!”

About: I have experience with dogs and cats (also new born kittens), birds, rabbits, and fish. I have been dog sitting for years now, and I have been helping out with friends, neighbors’ pets and couple returning clients while they are away. I'm currently working remotely, so my schedule is flexible and just need wifi when I stay. I will be able to spend some quality time with your pets. We have a beautiful trail next to guys where we go on walks and meet with other babies. The house is pretty spacious for them to explore. I always make sure your buddies have a leash on at all time when we go out.

About: Over the years I have owned and cared for various breeds of dogs which has thus created skills that I utilize during my car of your pet. My number one principal is to create a peaceful, loving environment for your animal while under my care. I am a very flexible sitter and I’m willing to accommodate to any requests you may have. Thank you for your consideration. All of my work is based out of my home office. I spend a lot of one on one time with my clients pets which I believe brings a much better experience for both me and your pet. Boarding services are my favorite services because I get to spend more one on one time with the animals. Doggy Daycare is my home daycare service, taking the clients out for most of the day, playing and relaxing instead of waiting alone for their owners to return home for the day. Drop Ins and Walks are services provided at the clients residence. I want all of my clients to feel loved and safe while in my care and I would like their owners to know they are in good hands.
About: I grew up caring for cats and dogs. I have an innate understanding of the behavior and needs of animals. I truly enjoy caring for animals; almost as much as they enjoy me : giving them all the attention they need, walks, hikes, and/or trail runs. I'm an elementary teacher and available after 3:00 during the weekdays I am available for over night stays any night of the week and free on weekends. I can care for your pet at your home, since I do not have a fenced in yard. I will follow the schedule and instructions for your animals.
“Margo was an incredible find! She was so caring and attentive to our little girl from the first second they met. I thought I would be so anxious leaving her with someone I didn’t know, but Margo kept me updated & sent multiple pictures throughout the day. Charlotte came home happy and healthy and sleepy from all their playtime and walks. I honestly wish we’d found her earlier in the trip. 15/10 recommend”

About: With over 40 years of experience caring for animals, my love for pets is a lifelong devotion. I’ve shared my home and heart with dogs and cats throughout my life, and I’ve been a trusted pet sitter for friends, family, and neighbors. I have experience with animals of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments—including senior pets and those needing extra tenderness or special care. In addition to hands-on experience, I bring a calm, grounded presence and a deep sensitivity to the emotional needs of animals. I’m trained in energy healing and often incorporate gentle, calming energy into my care when appropriate—helping pets feel safe, seen, and loved while their humans are away. My approach is intuitive, attentive, and heart-centered. I treat each pet as the unique soul they are, and I feel truly honored to care for them. I work from home a lot and I have the freedom to be available and present full-time. I’m devoted to being with your pet providing all their needs. I prefer to provide care in the clients home but I can also bring your pet to my home. I have a big yard and a deck that is fenced. Pets will are welcome.
“Richelle is great with our puppy who is sometimes too rambunctious with her more calm dogs. She instinctively knows when it’s best to separate them. Our Sophie loves going to her house!”

About: I am an active, dog-lover that would be so excited to get to know your sweet pup! I love taking dogs for walks and going out and exploring the neighborhoods (and dog parks!) around me. They will get endless amount of love and attention while in my care! I currently work remotely, so I am able to stay home for most of the day with your furry friend. Please reach out and let me know if you are in need of a dog-loving sitter! I work from home Monday-Friday and have a 5-1pm schedule. Within that timeframe, my work is pretty flexible so I will often play with the pups on breaks/lunches. I go on walks every evening between 1-4pm, usually 3+ miles. I am not able to offer stays at my own home at this time, but would love to help out and house sit or come stop by to take your sweet pup for a walk! I like to understand each individual dogs needs, so please don’t hesitate to let me know if there are any specific requests for activities/enrichment for your dog.
“Kerri was great with Nahla and even stopped by earlier in the day to do a meet and greet before their scheduled walk. I will definitely be reaching out in the future for her care :)”

“Aaliyah was amazing with my pup! I had a last minute schedule change, and she came through and saved the day! We were able to book two walks with her and I know my puppy absolutely loved her because he looked so happy in the photos she so kindly sent over. I also appreciated the detailed summary of the walk in the Rover card, it put me at ease to know my puppy was in good hands. I would absolutely recommend her for your fur baby’s needs, and we will definitely be booking her again soon!”

“Jennifer is fantastic! She goes above and beyond and takes my pup to the beach when I work long shifts. She even hoses her down each time after. Frankie always comes home happy and exhausted. I feel like my pup is in good hands with Jennifer!”

About: I’ve dog walked and dog sat for over a year and on and off for about 5 years. I’ve always loved being around animals, I grew up in a dog family and have always enjoyed walking dogs playing with them or sitting on the couch and snuggling with dogs. They’re truly happiness and every dog I’ve ever met has always put a smile on my face. As of right now I currently work part time so I’ll have plenty of time to spend with your dogs. Do any days of the week work I’m a trustworthy and reliable person and will prioritize spending time with your animals making sure they’re happy and safe. I can only stay at a clients house as I can’t bring any pets to my place as I’m renting.

About: I worked in a dog boarding and pet day care facility all through high school. Afterwards I did dog walking and pet sitting for those same families after I graduated and continued until recently when I moved. I grew up with lots of pets and I love every single one of them. Dogs hold a very special place in my heart. I have practice dispensing medication to animals due to my past job experience. I’m very active and love playing with dogs and taking them for walks. I also volunteered in my local animal shelter in the beginning of college. I’ve spent plenty of time around dogs, cats, and lots of other animals through out my life. Thank you for reading.(: I’m currently working from home part time while also taking my last few college classes online, so I have a lot of free time and flexibility to care for animals and make sure they’re getting the play time they deserve. I have lots of experience with high energy dogs and fostering a safe environment for them to get out the energy through fun play and runs.

About: From having a pet dog, to dogsitting and catsitting countless times throughout my life, I’ve learned how to meet the needs of each animal- from puppies & kittens to the elderly of all different shapes and sizes! It’s important to me to make sure they’re getting enough love and care throughout the day. I believe taking care of a pet’s emotional needs is just as important as meeting them physically, so I do my best to make sure they’re staying happy and comfortable while they await the arrival of their parents later on :) My week availability is very open as I’m in between jobs, so I have a lot of free time to dedicate to pet lovin’ on Mondays-Fridays, especially between 9 am to 7 pm. I respect the space and property of others, so I do my best to take care of your pet in whatever way you see best fit, and in a way that respects the home I’m coming into.
About: I’ve cared for animals and pet sitting since I was very young! I have farming experience, and I love helping animals feel at peace when their owner is gone. I’ve even dealt with and more complex situations in caring for animals with medical needs. I also have a passion for chickens so if they need care while your gone I’m a great fit! I’m free on the weekends, and work remotely throughout the week, which would leave me plenty of time to play and care for your special pet! I am happy to care for your animal in their home including walks and keep care of basic house sitting needs while you are away! I love to play with pets and snuggle them if they’ll let me!
“Callista is just great with Max! He has some quirks and she really listened to our instructions and worked to get his needs met. Great communication, arrived on time and sent photos of their walks together. We so appreciate her help…makes it easier to go away when we are confident in who is watching our pet.”
