“Loved booking with Brittni, very easy process. She was available any time I had a question or just wanted to check in on Max. He loved it there snd I’m happy I found someone that he is comfortable with so that I don’t have to be anxious while away.”
“Amanda and her kids were very attentive to my dogs needs and took really great care of them. Amanda always responded when I messaged her about the dogs and sent me pics of their stay. I know my dogs can be alot to handle and I truly commend Amanda for taking care of my two dogs ontop of taking care of her 3 children! I was very pleased with how everything went. One of her children even sent my dogs home with a toy that was handmade for him! I highly recommend Amanda to sit your dogs they will be well taken care of!”
“She was awesome. Very friendly and her dog was very playful and friendly. Her family is awesome with animals and my dog loved them. She sent photos while we were gone of my dog playing with the others. Would highly recommend her”
“We were away for 7 days and Carly kept us updated daily with photos of Norman-he seemed happy and adjusted well with his stay! I would highly recommend Carly if you’re looking for someone who cares about your pet! We will definitely be booking with Carly again!”
“Maya was amazing with Gojo! Sent updates everyday with photos, took him for walks, gave him all the attention he could ask for (if you know Gojo, that’s a lot of attention), and truly welcomed him into their home. Gojo was happy to see me on pickup but sad to go as well. Will definitely recommend Maya and will be bringing Gojo back in the future to play with Thor!”
“If there was a rate of 10 stars Briana would get it! The communication is fabulous along with the pictures of our sweet Samoyed with her family and their dog, Duke. We are at easy knowing our sweet boy is being well taken care of when we travel.”
“Melissa was great! She kept our Great Dane for a week, this was the first time we left our dog with anyone. She kept us updated with texts and videos. She is very experienced with a wide variety of dog breeds. Her house and land is great for the dogs to run and play. When we picked our dog up she seemed like herself and didn’t seem anxious or stressed at all. We would definitely book with Melissa again, and I highly recommend her.”
About: Over the past 20 years, I’ve cared for three of my own dogs from puppyhood through their senior years, giving me firsthand experience with every stage of life—from potty training and high energy phases to gentle senior care. I’ve also raised kittens into senior cats, so I’m comfortable with feline personalities and needs as well. Beyond my own pets, I’ve regularly helped care for the dogs and cats of family and friends. I understand how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your pet, and I treat every animal in my care with the same patience, love, and attention I gave my own. As a stay-at-home mom, pet care fits very naturally into my daily schedule. I’m home throughout the day, which allows me to give pets consistent attention, maintain their routines, and provide a calm, present environment while you’re away. I know how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own space. I take a patient, gentle approach and pay close attention to each animal’s unique temperament—whether that means playtime and energy for a young pup or a quiet, reassuring presence for a shy cat. In addition to everyday care, I’m experienced in administering medications, including oral meds and insulin injections for diabetic cats. I understand how important consistency, attentiveness, and trust are when caring for pets with medical needs, and I’m confident providing that level of care. I’ve also been the go-to pet sitter for family and friends over the years, helping with walks, feedings, routines, and lots of affection. Every pet I care for is treated with the same love and attention I gave my own. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind and your pet a calm, loving experience while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities, whether I’m caring for them in your home or welcoming them into mine. In my home, pets are treated like family. I have a friendly, well-socialized dog and cats who are accustomed to other animals, creating a calm and welcoming environment. I’m mindful of introductions and each pet’s personality to ensure everyone feels safe and at ease. Dogs are always leashed for daily walks, and I have a large yard that allows for extra exercise and playtime in a secure space. As a stay-at-home mom, I’m home throughout the day, which allows me to closely supervise pets, maintain their routines, and give them consistent attention and companionship. When caring for pets in your home, I’m respectful of your space and committed to keeping your pet’s routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions, and any special preferences you share. I also offer meet-and-greets before bookings so you and your pet can feel comfortable and confident. Building trust with both pets and their owners is very important to me, and I want you to feel completely at ease knowing your pet is in loving, attentive hands.
“Kaitlyn watched and boarded my dog Sasha while I was recovering for a week from surgery. She took excellent care of her and updated me daily with pictures of her playing and enjoying her large fenced in yard. She returned her to me happy and healthy. She is great and I would recommend her services to anyone who loves their fur baby 😊💕”
“Laurie was wonderful with Gracie! I was a little nervous letting Gracie stay away but from the moment we had our meet & greet I felt very comfortable. Laurie, her sweet dog Daphne & daughter were very warm and welcoming. Laurie provided many check-ins and promptly answered all of the questions I had. I would definitely Laurie to anyone looking for a sitter and plan to use Laurie again in the future!”
“Mary was great for our last minute trip and flexible with scheduling, which was much appreciated. I love that our boy got tons of outside time while we were away. It was exactly what he needed. She provided pictures and updates daily. Our boy came home happy and tired.”
About: I have always had pets . I grew up helping my mother groom and take care of dogs. I would do anything for an animal. I am available all 24/7 everyday. I am willing to work any day of the week. I am availability because this is my only job, and I am passionate. I have been lucky enough to be raised with dogs my entire life. My family were breeders for standard poodles at one point, which was amazing to watch and learn about. I am no stranger to special needs, administering meds, able to provide short term care until help arrives. I love all dog breeds equally and will treat your dog like my own. This is my passion. I have 2 guest rooms that can be turned into private doggo apartments. If your pets need exercise I can provide. If they need relaxation, I love cuddles on the couch. We have crates of all sizes, beds for any size dog, dog gates for stairs, enough rooms to spread out and separate if needed, and live minutes away from a fenced in dog park. We live 3 minutes from 2 vet clinics and we use them for our own dogs. We have security cameras in the house with 2 way speakers if we need to step out for any reason. Please let us know about your dogs temperament with other dogs ahead of time. If your dog has special needs or quirks around certain people. We are happy to share our dogs food but would prefer food is delivered with the dog for stays. We are used to dogs that have a tendency to run if given the chance but appreciate heads up so we can be extra attentive.
“Anthony was great! This was the first time boarding our dog and was a little nervous because he’s still a puppy but Anthony was patient with him and constantly gave me updates on how Bullet was doing. I felt very at ease leaving him there. I would highly recommend him and plan on using him again in the future!”
“Heather and her family were very welcoming and made me feel great about leaving my dog in their care. Heather kept me updated with my dog's silly antics and were very nice to get. My dog was tuckered out for 2 days after I picked her up so I know she was busy playing and having fun. I would not hesitate to use Heather for any of my future dog sitting needs.”
“Rhonda was great with my dogs over the weekend! She treated them as her own.She sent me videos and pictures of them having fun at her house! I look forward to bringing my dogs back and will refer her to everyone! Thanks for loving us! Ace and Bella!”
“Fifth time client and as always, a great experience. Our dogs love Chelsea and her family. Lots of snuggles and playtime and love. She is our go to and #1 choice any time we are headed out of town.”
“Thank you very much for everything towards my dog. You are a very good caregiver. My dog was very happy. She keeps you in communication and sends you photos every day.🤗”
“My dog went back to Lindsey’s while I was on a recent trip. He had a great time there with her and the family! I loved seeing the photo updates and I always know that he’s in good hands there!”

“Norah was the absolute best letting my dogs out twice a day for 4 days. I got a report card for every visit and it made me being gone for 12+ hours a day that much easier knowing I had her to let them out. She was very communicative and I did not worry for a second that my dogs were in good hands. She will definitely be one of the first people I look for whenever I need someone to watch my dogs!”
“Marie was wonderful. She gave us a daily update that we read when we got home and of course pictures every day. It was not easy giving him is meds every day but she managed to find all of his hiding places. We are extremely grateful for not only taking care of our cat but also checking on the house.”
“We are so happy we found Taylor to watch our 5 cats. She was dependable and communicated really well. We loved all the pictures and updates. We would highly recommend her and use her pet sitting service again.”
“Maya is an awesome nanny for our kitty. While we were traveling to Yellowstone National Park, Maya kindly helped take care of our little girl—our beloved cat, Meme. She kept us updated with photos and stories of Meme’s daily activities. As a talented writer, Maya beautifully captured their moments together with vivid and heartwarming descriptions. Meme quickly warmed up to Maya and settled in with ease. She’s been eating well—so well, in fact, that she’s noticeably heavier than before! We’re truly grateful for the time and care that Maya and her husband devoted to looking after her. Thanks to their support, we were able to enjoy our trip with complete peace of mind.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for years! I even completely trained my old puppy to do all different kind of tricks, potty training, and behavioral tactics. I believe I am a very reliable and trustworthy dog sitter. I do work full time but can make plenty of time for any of your animals needs. My hours do vary but if we have compatible schedules, count me in. Whatever is asked of me, trust and believe it will be taken care of. Your fur baby needs taken out for a walk, done. Litter needs changed, done. Food and water needs refilled, done. I am a very reliable and dependable individual.
About: I have helped taken care of, or owned, cats since I was younger. My family had always had pets, and I love to take care of them. I would often cat sit for friends and family. I have owned rats in the past, which requires constant upkeep with cleaning and sometimes medication(I’m not afraid of a little dirty/stinky work). Whatever instructions you can give me, I’ll get ‘em done!
About: I am a true animal lover with hands on experience caring for cats and understanding their unique personalities. I know the importance of patience, routine, and a calm environment. Whether your cat is playful or prefers quiet companionship, I provide gentle, reliable care and treat every cat like my own so you can feel completely at ease.
About: While I grew up primarily caring for dogs, I currently have a cat of my own and have gained experience understanding cat behavior, routines, and personalities. Through both pet ownership and my work in a veterinary clinic, I am comfortable caring for cats with a wide range of temperaments—from shy and independent cats to more social and affectionate ones. I understand that cats thrive on routine and a calm environment, and I always aim to respect their space while ensuring they are well cared for, fed, and comfortable. I am also familiar with assisting with prescribed medications and monitoring for any changes in behavior or health.
About: I am an active pet lover who will go out of my way to provide exceptional care for your pets and make sure they’re getting my full attention. Pets have always been a big part of my life and I’m looking forward to showing you how much your pet can mean to me. I am available on weekends or week days, whenever you need an extra hand! I work from home so will be around throughout the day, I am able to take extended lunch breaks as well to ensure your dog is getting out for enough time! I am fully available after 4 on weekdays, and most weekends. I have a large fenced in backyard for easy access to let pups of all sizes out when needed! I work from home so am available all day for any of the pups needs:)
About: We will treat your fur babies like our own! We both have grown up around animals of all kinds and are animal lovers through and through! We strive to ease the stress of leaving your pet home alone! We are both currently at home with our one year old daughter, so have plenty of time to spend with your pet! We are available any day of the week for drop in visits or walks! We will treat your pet like our own! Our rescue dog, Harry, is a handful. We understand that different pets have different temperaments, needs and wants!
About: My childhood home had 5 cats ( varying ages) which I looked after for many years, I have two cats in my home that I love and look after currently that I adopted two years ago. I am very experienced in cat care
About: Growing up we always had dogs in our house from bulldogs to an English mastiff. I currently have a 6 year old sharpei mix that I absolutely adore. I’ve been dog sitting for family and friends since I was 14 and love it. I’ve worked with puppies and dogs as old as 14. I would love to get to help other people out because I know how big of a hassle it can be to try to work around a work or vacation schedule to make sure your dog is taken care of. My dog has a tie out that he gets connected to when he needs to go potty, we do not have a fence due to living on a large piece of land. When he’s off leash he has an e-collar that allows me to keep track of his location. As far as taking care of other peoples dogs goes I just do as I’m told or whatever is requested. If you’d like your dog to be leashed, great! If you’d like them not to be leash, also great! Put them in a crate while no one is home, can do! Whatever they’re used to is what I will do, keeping them in a routine is so important.
“Zoe is literally one of the most sweetest caring considerate and empathetic person I have met! She was so understanding and updated me about every single thing happening with my pet! She met all my needs and my cat is in perfect shape!! I found my new sitter!!!”

About: I've been taking care of dogs and cats alike as long as I can remember. My family, neighbors, and friends trust their fur babies with me because I treat them like they are my own. I am a stay at home wife, so my day is completely free to look after your fur babies. I have all the time needed to provide a safe and happy stay. I have a fenced yard and two of my own fur babies to keep your baby happy and entertained. The babies are allowed on the furniture and in my bed if they need it.
“Maggie really enjoyed her doggie daycare with April in her home, this included Ollie, April’s doggie! Her parents enjoyed it even more that Maggie was safe and in good hands. April was professional and prompt in communication and sent doggie report cards each day with pictures! She was super accommodating with our special hours for pick up and drop off. We definitely will be returning to April in the future!”
“My dog Arthur has very specific needs and doesn’t feel comfortable with just anybody. Arthur seemed to settle right in, and take over. He even ate his dinner which he doesn’t do when he’s nervous or anxious. I’m hoping that Chris will be available again sometime when I would like to get out of the house. Extremely pleased!”
“Very nice folks, couldn’t have been more confident leaving Mamabear in their care. Very nice home, and their resident dog Thor was just a gentle giant and a sweetheart. They even offered her a swim in the pool! Will definitely use again. Thanks!”
“Kind, caring and conscientious! My fur baby loves visiting Anthony and Leslie! Highly recommend this sitter for daycare and boarding. They go above and beyond what is expected.”
“We love Wendy. My only regret is that I didn't find her sooner. We've moved too far away now, but she was so great to help us with last minute doggy daycare when we had a day of house showings before our move. We will miss her. She pampers the pets that stay with her. It's obvious that they become part of her extended family. You will not regret booking Wendy, I promise.”
About: I am a single mom with 20 year old daughter who is away at college. I have a golden retriever who loves to have dog friends visit. Your pet will get the same TLC as my own dog. They will be a part of our family while they are with us. I have a fenced in yard, making it easy for your pet to be safe and get some exercise too. I have been watching dogs in my home for about 25 years. I work from home Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, and I am gone on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday from about 10-4, so I am almost always home aside from the occasional errands. On Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, I can always run home in the middle of the day if a potty break is needed. Accidents are ok too. Mine has had a few over the years. Your dog will never be in trouble if this happens. You won’t have to worry about your dogs when they are with me. They will be treated like family. I work from home, so your pets will rarely be left alone. When they are, it is just for brief periods for when I running errands. I have a fenced in yard and w very friendly fur baby of my own. I can let them out frequently and always supervise outside even though my yard is fenced. I am able to feed them if they are here during meal time. I will just need to know if your dog is food possessive so I can make sure they eat separately from my dog. Unfortunately I can’t leave your dogs food down throughout the day because my dog will eat it.
“Amelia watched my 4 month old puppy for the day and took such amazing care of her! She sent adorable updates throughout the day, set up a kiddie pool and sprinkler in her backyard, and even gave her a bath afterwards! It was such a relief knowing my dog was in great hands. Highly recommend to anyone looking to find an attentive, caring person who will go the extra mile to make your little one feel at home!”
“Mary was great! My puppy was a little apprehensive at first but by the end of the day settled right in. She had great communication and sent a few photos during the day and kept me updated to ease my anxiety.”
“2nd time booking with Chelsea & she will always be our go to if we need day care again. Super flexible and communication is top notch. Lots of photos each day along with details of the day's activities. Our pups come home happy and tired, having spent their days playing and snuggling. Chelsea and her family are beyond fabulous!”
About: Hi! I’m Cass. I have been a life long animal lover. I was often the child bringing home every stray cat and dog I found. When I became a Mom and my youngest son begged us to get a dog, I was so happy. We added Rocky to our family 12 years ago and he’s been my companion ever since. We also have two cats Domino and Luna to complete our family zoo! We’d love to have new furry friends and visitors to come on our family adventures and to play with. I work from home so I am available all day for pet care needs to be able to frequently feed and bathroom breaks along with some outdoor time I have a somewhat private back yard and I will be outside with your pet at all times while they get outdoor time and use the bathroom or I am able to go to your home and walk them in their environment. I also have a nice neighborhood block area that I am able to take breaks and walk your pet.
“Sierra took wonderful care of my disabled cat, Bonbon. She loved her like her own and was very attentive to her needs. She was patient and flexible with us for our drop off and pick up times that were somewhat uncertain as we came to town to help with a sick family member. I will plan to look her up again the next time we’re in town!”

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and will show all the love! I prefer walking/potty breaks but can do overnights/vacations within reason (potty trained, friendly to other animals). I work remote from home and make my own schedule so I can be very flexible as long as the fur babies are local! I can do potty breaks/walks during the day My 2 dogs are free range and don’t need to be tied up. I make them fresh/homemade food and take them on lots of walks. They are very spoiled and well cared for

“Rylie loved being able to play outside with Lucy. First time I’ve had to take her to a dog sitter that she doesn’t know - she had no problem warming up to Courtney and everyone. Will be using again! Excellent communication- thank you Courtney!”
“Basil came home tired and worn out. I think she had a good time staying at Heather's with her man, and the kids! Would recommend her! Shes punctual with replying back, very informative, and fairly prices, and she accommodated basil with her special need.”
About: I have had a dog my entire life. When my last one passed, my heart was broken and I haven’t been able to get another one. I watched my daughter’s dog for a year but took her back about a year ago to Idaho. I work from home and it’s very quiet without any four-legged friends to keep me company throughout the day. I would love to help you out by watching your fur baby (& I can’t lie, it would make my heart happy to do so :)) I only book for one owner at a time & I do require a Meet & Greet to make sure I am a good fit for you & your furry friend. I work from home and have the flexibility to take them out for walks as needed. I walk multiple times a day & would love to share that with a dog.

I am grateful for the love animals give me and I hope that I can give them that love back. Animals are part of families and I want to provide that comfort when their families are not around! I have expierence with being around all different animals since I was very young. I have been dog sitting since I was 13 years old. I have the experience you want for your loved family member. I work at a veterinary clinic so I have experience with working with all types of breeds. Being a vet assistant I am able to provide for your pet with the knowledge and confidence it takes to take care of any pet!! I work full time at a vet clinic and love to surround myself with all types of different animals! I find comfortable and peace giving people the option to have someone love their pets as my own when they are away! Any needs that your pet may need I am more than comfortable to provide. I deal with many different species and behaviors daily at my job and would love to do whatever your pets need to be comfortable.

About: I’ve taken care of both dogs and cats since i was a child, along with taking care of sick animals. I have also spent many years volunteering at different animal shelters. I am currently not working so I have all the time in the world to take care of your furry friends! Any day of the week I’m available to keep your pets company and take care of them to my upmost best! I have spent my whole life caring for animals of my own and currently have two cats and a wonderful dog, so i know how to handle multitudes of pet care.
About: Hi, I’m Tate a lifelong animal lover with experience as unique as the pets I care for! I grew up surrounded by animals—horses, dogs, geese, and barn cats—and I’ve been a trusted sitter for everything from puppies to parrots, bottle babies to bearded dragons. I have a special heart for pets with extra needs, including those with anxiety, reactivity, or medical concerns. I’m experienced with insulin administration, glucose monitoring, and special meal prep—your pet’s routine is safe with me. While my husband was serving in the Air Force, I spent four years caring for military families’ pets near Dyess AFB while completing my college degree. I’ve worked with dogs, cats, chickens, exotics—you name it, I’ve probably cuddled it! I genuinely feel like I speak their language. Whether your pet is high-energy, shy, or needs a little extra TLC, I’ll meet them where they’re at—with love, patience, and lots of care. Pet care isn’t just something I fit into my routine—it’s something my routine feels incomplete without. After earning my degree in graphic design and moving across the country, I had to say goodbye to the fur family I sat for in Texas. That shift made me realize just how much joy and purpose pet sitting brought to my everyday life. These days, I work from home on flexible, self-paced art and design projects, which means I have the freedom to take breaks, make visits, and give pets the attention they deserve—whether it’s a midday walk, medication, or just some much-needed love. Caring for animals brings balance and warmth to my day, and I genuinely look forward to every tail wag, meow, chirp, or cuddle. When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, my top priority is maintaining their usual routine and environment to minimize stress and keep them feeling safe and secure. I take time to understand each pet’s specific needs, whether that’s playtime outside, quiet companionship, or extra TLC for pets who are shy or reactive. My approach is experience-focused—I’m not just there to check a box, but to make sure your pets are truly cared for and comforted while you’re away. I also believe in leaving your home as tidy (or better!) than you left it. I often vacuum or sweep, take out the trash, bring in mail, and keep up with litter boxes, enclosures, and yard clean-up. My goal is to provide total peace of mind—both for your pets and for you.
“Maya has taken my dog on two walks now and I'm very satisfied with the results. My dog, "Sissy" gets bored easily and starts to find her own "entertainment". After Maya spent time with Sissy, Sissy was content with lounging around the house until I got home from work. Maya sent pictures and quick updates of the visit assuring me that Sissy was getting great care.”

About: I have a great experience in senior dog care which may include more guidance, patience and frequent potty breaks. I also just had two puppies of my own who are 6 months old and have experience in handling them. I work a close by day job and have the flexibility to do 3-4 drop ins daily, and multiple visits if needed. I have the flexibility to stay overnight as well. Frequent potty breaks/walks are so important and also providing play is just as important. I would care for your pet like my own in regards to playing,walking,cuddling, meal time, and more.

About: I am 23 & have owned and worked with many dogs and cats over the course of 4-5years through doggy daycare/boarding facilities, assisting with obedience training, medical situations, petsitting, and of course owning my own pets as well. Each animal has its own unique personality, traits, and quirks that make them special. Which is what I love about them so much! I work full time at a doggy daycare and have been for the past 3 years! It’s amazing getting to be around so many different dogs each day, I learn something new every day I understand different dogs have different needs, and different owners have different needs for their pets as well. Will do everything to keep the pet as happy and comfortable as possible while it’s people are away
About: I have had animals my whole life and I have love for all kinds of fur babies. I can’t wait to meet yours and shower them with love and attention! I just graduated college and am applying for corporate jobs at the moment, but so far am primarily pet sitting so my schedule is very open. I do not care for pets in my home as it is a shared space with roommates and pets. Thank you for your time and understanding.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. Currently have 4 herding dogs and chickens. Experience from puppies to seniors. My kids are adults and I have free time from my varying work schedule. Sometimes in I’m hotels around Pittsburgh with idle time during the weekdays and evenings. Im always local Saturday and Sunday. From stopping by to check on your pets and letting them out, to walking or playing, let me know how can I can help out. I am available for afternoons and evenings depending on where my work takes me.

Friends have trusted me for years to pet sit.
About: I currently work at an animal shelter, where I care for a wide variety of dogs. My daily responsibilities include administering medications, cleaning and maintaining living spaces, walking, and socializing the animals. I also assist with humane calls and the safe capture of stray dogs. With this experience, you can be confident that your pets will receive their medications on time and that their environment will remain clean and well managed. In addition to my professional work, I have been a lifelong dog owner, which has given me years of personal experience in providing attentive and compassionate care. Pet care is an essential part of my daily routine. At the animal shelter where I currently work, I spend each day administering medications, cleaning, feeding, walking, and socializing dogs. Beyond my work responsibilities, I also care for my own pets at home, which means I’m consistently providing structure, attention, and affection. Because pet care is already a regular part of my professional and personal life, it fits seamlessly into my weekly routine. In my home and in clients’ homes, I make pet care a top priority. I focus on providing a safe, clean, and comfortable environment while following each pet’s individual routine as closely as possible. This includes feeding on schedule, administering medications, going for walks, engaging in playtime, and offering plenty of attention and affection. I also make sure to maintain a tidy space and monitor for any changes in behavior or health so pets stay happy and well cared for. My goal is to make pets feel secure and loved, whether they are in my home or in their own.
About: I am an active pet lover who will go out of my way to provide exceptional care for your pets and make sure they’re getting my full attention. Pets have always been a big part of my life and I’m looking forward to showing you how much your pet can mean to me. I am available on weekends or week days, whenever you need an extra hand! I work from home so will be around throughout the day, I am able to take extended lunch breaks as well to ensure your dog is getting out for enough time! I am fully available after 4 on weekdays, and most weekends. I have a large fenced in backyard for easy access to let pups of all sizes out when needed! I work from home so am available all day for any of the pups needs:)
About: Growing up my family always had one or more dogs so we definitely had our hands tied, additionally, to make some extra money when I was a kid my brother and I would offer to walk dogs around our neighborhood. I moved forward with the love for handling pets and creating new appreciation for the impact they really do have on our lives whether it’s my own pet or someone else’s. I recently took care of one of my best friends dogs every Wednesday for a few months while she had clinical all day, and it really revitalized my passion for being around animals. I’m a big outdoorsy girl and love to hike so being able to do a service outside is like two worlds colliding- it’s the best! I currently work full time, 8am-5pm. However I wake up around 5:45 every morning and am available until 10 til 8am. And I’m available after work until just a little after dusk, so around 7:30-8pm. I have a pet of my own, a cat! Her name is Kai and I’ve had her for a little over two years now. She is my best friend and it was truly the best decision ever to adopt her!
“Jeannine was so helpful to us when we had another dog walker cancel last minute!! She stepped in & did an amazing job with Oakley! He loved the belly rubs & her company, I’ll definitely keep her in mind the next time we need a sitter!”
About: I truly adore animals! I am a fur mamma of a long haired 18 year old cat LuLu and a 10 year old pomchi names Frankie. They bring me so much happiness! I love spending time with them and miss them dearly when I leave for trips. I know what a comfort it is to know your fur babies are in good hands when you're away! I've had pets my entire life and realize that no two are the same. I have experience with finicky eaters and all kinds of fury personalities! I am not afraid to take care of a challenging pet! From walks, playtime, all the good pets and brushes, snacks and feeding I am a girl you can count on! I run a small jewelry business with my best friend making real pressed flower jewelry. I have the ability to create a very comfortable schedule for myself. January-May my schedule is very open, especially during the week! Towards the end of summer we begin market season. My schedule may vary but is still very accommodating! I am very trustworthy, caring, and dependable! I feel I make a great house sitter because I would respect your home and fur family as though they were my own!
About: I’m home full time and love going on walks! I have a golden doodle who is 5 and loves friends. I’m very flexible with my availability. I had dogs growing up and my family loves them! I provided care for several years while I lived in Colorado. Now I’m in Ohio and would love to do the same. Our neighborhood is great for walks. We have a large yard that isn’t fenced. I have three children 5,7,9 that live all animals. I’m a stay at home mom with 3 kiddos who are very well acquainted with all size and ages of dogs. We are involved in activities but always make time for our furry friends. We love on them with cuddles. We have a large crate we can put them in if needed. We also have a separate room if they need some space.
About: I treat every animal as if it were my own pet- with lots of love, care, and compassion. I’ve watched many many animals over the past couple years and have loved every second of it. I know how to give many types of medication to different animals as well. I am able to help out with any animal needs outside of my normal job. I always make sure they have what they need, get love, and get some energy out! I treat every animal as if it were my own. Lots of love and care go into every animal I watch/take care of. I try to make it so the animals aren’t focused on missing the owner as much. For house sitting, if possible, I always ask if my fiancé can come stay as well as I have trouble at new houses alone. I always will try to make it work if not though! He will also come with me to meet you and your fur babies for a more peace of mind if needed!

“Maya was amazing with Gojo! Sent updates everyday with photos, took him for walks, gave him all the attention he could ask for (if you know Gojo, that’s a lot of attention), and truly welcomed him into their home. Gojo was happy to see me on pickup but sad to go as well. Will definitely recommend Maya and will be bringing Gojo back in the future to play with Thor!”

When we picked our dog up she seemed like herself and didn’t seem anxious or stressed at all. We would definitely book with Melissa again, and I highly recommend her.”
About: Over the past 20 years, I’ve cared for three of my own dogs from puppyhood through their senior years, giving me firsthand experience with every stage of life—from potty training and high energy phases to gentle senior care. I’ve also raised kittens into senior cats, so I’m comfortable with feline personalities and needs as well. Beyond my own pets, I’ve regularly helped care for the dogs and cats of family and friends. I understand how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your pet, and I treat every animal in my care with the same patience, love, and attention I gave my own. As a stay-at-home mom, pet care fits very naturally into my daily schedule. I’m home throughout the day, which allows me to give pets consistent attention, maintain their routines, and provide a calm, present environment while you’re away. I know how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own space. I take a patient, gentle approach and pay close attention to each animal’s unique temperament—whether that means playtime and energy for a young pup or a quiet, reassuring presence for a shy cat. In addition to everyday care, I’m experienced in administering medications, including oral meds and insulin injections for diabetic cats. I understand how important consistency, attentiveness, and trust are when caring for pets with medical needs, and I’m confident providing that level of care. I’ve also been the go-to pet sitter for family and friends over the years, helping with walks, feedings, routines, and lots of affection. Every pet I care for is treated with the same love and attention I gave my own. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind and your pet a calm, loving experience while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities, whether I’m caring for them in your home or welcoming them into mine. In my home, pets are treated like family. I have a friendly, well-socialized dog and cats who are accustomed to other animals, creating a calm and welcoming environment. I’m mindful of introductions and each pet’s personality to ensure everyone feels safe and at ease. Dogs are always leashed for daily walks, and I have a large yard that allows for extra exercise and playtime in a secure space. As a stay-at-home mom, I’m home throughout the day, which allows me to closely supervise pets, maintain their routines, and give them consistent attention and companionship. When caring for pets in your home, I’m respectful of your space and committed to keeping your pet’s routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions, and any special preferences you share. I also offer meet-and-greets before bookings so you and your pet can feel comfortable and confident. Building trust with both pets and their owners is very important to me, and I want you to feel completely at ease knowing your pet is in loving, attentive hands.
“Kaitlyn watched and boarded my dog Sasha while I was recovering for a week from surgery. She took excellent care of her and updated me daily with pictures of her playing and enjoying her large fenced in yard. She returned her to me happy and healthy. She is great and I would recommend her services to anyone who loves their fur baby 😊💕”
“Mary was great for our last minute trip and flexible with scheduling, which was much appreciated. I love that our boy got tons of outside time while we were away. It was exactly what he needed. She provided pictures and updates daily. Our boy came home happy and tired.”
“Kimberly is FANTASTIC! I would recommend her services to anyone looking for someone to care for their pet. I like how she took the time to provide both a meet and greet and a visit to her home before our dog’s stay. We were nervous our dog would be scared to be in a new environment, but Kimberly helped her feel comfortable and they had a great stay together. I also want to compliment how respectful her son was of our dog - Kimberly stated she has taught her son how to treat animals and it resulted in our dog not feeling stressed out with anyone invading her personal space or pushing her boundaries - I really appreciated that! Kimberly was also kind enough to send updates and photos to make it easier to be away from our favorite pup. We had a great vacation knowing our dog was being well taken care of :)”
“Anthony was great! This was the first time boarding our dog and was a little nervous because he’s still a puppy but Anthony was patient with him and constantly gave me updates on how Bullet was doing. I felt very at ease leaving him there. I would highly recommend him and plan on using him again in the future!”
“Heather and her family were very welcoming and made me feel great about leaving my dog in their care. Heather kept me updated with my dog's silly antics and were very nice to get. My dog was tuckered out for 2 days after I picked her up so I know she was busy playing and having fun. I would not hesitate to use Heather for any of my future dog sitting needs.”
“Rhonda was great with my dogs over the weekend! She treated them as her own.She sent me videos and pictures of them having fun at her house! I look forward to bringing my dogs back and will refer her to everyone! Thanks for loving us! Ace and Bella!”
“Fifth time client and as always, a great experience. Our dogs love Chelsea and her family. Lots of snuggles and playtime and love. She is our go to and #1 choice any time we are headed out of town.”
“Thank you very much for everything towards my dog. You are a very good caregiver. My dog was very happy. She keeps you in communication and sends you photos every day.🤗”
“My dog went back to Lindsey’s while I was on a recent trip. He had a great time there with her and the family! I loved seeing the photo updates and I always know that he’s in good hands there!”
“Courtney was absolutely excellent! She is a natural dog-lover, & really went out of her way to make sure that both of our dogs were exceptionally taken care of. She sent photos, and she even cuddled with them. She has a backyard, which was perfect for letting them run around and for going to the bathroom. I highly recommend Courtney.”
