“I was very nervous leaving my dog for the first time in a new place. Brittany and Matt were great with Ghost, he can be a handful with his anxiety and they were patient and understanding. They sent updates and videos of him playing with their dog King. We will definitely use them in the future if we need a sitter.”
“Rebecca had excellent communication and was very flexible with my ever changing schedule. I loved the daily updates and pictures. Jetty had the best time! I would absolutely use Rebecca again.”
“Michelle was a fantastic sitter for our Pepper. She provided daily updates and photos, and it was apparent that Pepper was enjoying his time with her. We highly recommend Michelle”

I will make sure your pet gets the exercise, attention, and love he/she needs while you are away. Your pets will receive the same care I would want for my own. I am an energetic, trustworthy, caring person with a flexible schedule and would love to care for your pet! I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Thank you❣
“Joseph and Destiny plus their pups were awesome! Friendly and took extra special care of our, not always perfectly behaved, fur baby! I will definitely be asking them to care for our pet again.”
About: I have experience taking care of dogs, cats, horses, goats, chickens, and turkeys! I am now offering boarding for dogs at my home. Thank you! I am currently working part-time. I have been a pet sitter for a couple of years and decided to go public with it! I will give your animal all the loving and care! If I am keeping your fur baby in home I would take them on as many walks possible and play with them regularly. I will always do my best to keep your fur baby happy!
“Booking with Kiley was the best decision we ever made! She sent tons of pics and videos, and nova had so much fun spending the weekend with her and her family. She played, did some crafts, and was so well taken care of. Nova is a puppy, and our baby so knowing she was in the hands of someone who loved her just as much as we do made us feel so much better about leaving for a long weekend. If you’re doubting if you should book- just do it!”
About: Growing up I wasn’t able to have pets, so I always volunteered to care for my neighbors pets. It was the best part of my childhood. Now that I have pets of my own, I’ve realized how much goes into it. I’m constantly researching new things to help my pets thrive. I rescued my dog as a puppy from the side of the road when I was 13. I had to learn to potty train her, leash train, etc. Realizing how many things could hurt her, even my everyday foods was enlightening and scary. Learning about cats and dogs is so intriguing and I want to understand each and every animal I take care of on a personal level. I am currently a stay at home mom to a 2 year old and newborn. While my little need a lot of one on one time, they sleep a lot allowing for plenty of time to spend with my fur baby as well as yours! My apartment complex offers a fenced in area for animal play which my pup loves taking advantage of. About once a day we go to said area to play and get all of our energy out, when we’re more on a time crunch we’ll take a lap around the building. We tend to go on walks every 3-4 hours or as Trixie let me know she’s needing to potty!
About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and my commitment to providing reliable, attentive care. I focus on building trust with both pets and owners by following routines closely, ensuring safety, and giving each pet individualized attention so they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for at all times. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I don’t work outside the home and complete my college classes online. This gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to focus on walks, feedings, playtime, and individualized care, while being attentive to each pet’s needs throughout the day. I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment in every home I enter. I follow each pet’s routine closely, respect house rules, and ensure doors, leashes, and gates are secure at all times. I have over four years of experience caring for cats, including my own 7-month-old kitten who was recently spayed, which has strengthened my attention to detail and patience. For walks, I focus on safe routes and attentive handling, and for overnight stays, I keep pets comfortable, maintain cleanliness, and provide consistent updates so owners feel confident their pets are well cared for.

“Monica exceeded my expectations. Until Monica, my cat Sinner would only engage with me. In a few days time Monica was able to pet Sinner and play with her. I appreciate her taking the time and being so patient with my cat. Monica sent nice photos and reports daily. She left the house clean and the cat happy. I'll definitely be recommending her and having her back again.”

“I think my cats like Auntie Beth more than they like me 😂 she brought them fun toys, a crate to play hide and seek in, and a big ball of yarn. She fed the birds outside the window so they would have something to look at. She assimilated so well with them while I was gone, keeping to their routines and patterns. She left the house in a better condition than I did. The communication while I was away was perfect. I never had time to wonder or worry. She even kept my plants alive for me! Thank you Beth!”

About: I have a passion for animals and have been working with them for many years. Growing up on a large farm in upstate New York, I was exposed to a wide range of pets and farm animals. After years of working on the farm and caring for various animals, I realized that my passion was in providing care and love for pets. I decided to start my own petsitting business to offer the best possible care for your furry family members while you are away. I offer a variety of services, including housesitting, drop-ins, and walks. Whether you need someone to stay with your pets overnight or just check in on them during the day, I am happy to accommodate your needs. I understand that each pet has its unique personality and needs, and I tailor my services to meet those needs. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to find a trustworthy and reliable petsitter. You can rest assured that your pets will be in good hands with me. I take pride in providing high-quality care for each pet that I look after. Thank you for considering my services. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! Petsitting is what I do on a daily basis. I take priority into providing my services, and I am very flexible with making sure I can do so 🙂 When I care for your animals in your home, I treat your home, and your animals like my own. I go about it the same as I would with my animals in my home. Potty breaks or walks every 2 hours (or 1 hour for puppies and senoirs). Clean up any accidents right away, and follow the feeding schedule you provide.
About: What sets me apart is the heart I put into every tail wag and paw print I treat your pet like family! I have two friendly dogs who love making new furry friends, so your pup will have playmates and never feel alone. From fun fetch sessions to cozy cuddle breaks, I make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and right at home. I learn their routines, quirks, and favorite treats, and I always keep you in the loop with updates and photos because peace of mind matters just as much as playtime! Pet care fits perfectly into my schedule because it’s already part of our daily life! With two dogs of our own and a stay at home wife who loves animals just as much as I do, there’s always someone home to give your pet attention, playtime, and plenty of love. We keep a consistent routine, and caring for animals is something we truly enjoy not just a job. Whether it’s walks, snuggles, or just keeping them company, your pet becomes part of our pack and is never left out or alone. When your dog’s in my home, they’re part of the family. With my two friendly pups around, there’s always someone to play with and lots of love to go around. I make sure to stick to their usual routine as much as possible feeding, walks, and chill time so they feel comfortable and happy. It’s all about making them feel safe and cared for, just like they’re home, so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands.
