“Susan was great taking care of our little Annie! Annie wouldn't eat her regular food so Susan made some "home cooking" food and Annie ate it all up! Thanks! Annie enjoyed her regular walks by Susan and had a great time playing with other puppies. We were updated daily with pictures and comments on how Annie was doing, that was greatly appreciated! We like to thank Susan & her husband for making Annie feel comfortable when she had some anxiety of not being with us. Definitely would have Susan take care of Annie in the futures. Thanks again, Pha & Bruce”

My experience is both professional and for friends and family; I am experience with giving insulin and testing glucose, as well as giving oral medication and topical medication.
“Joel provided drop in visits for a week while we were on vacation and if we could give him 10 stars out of 5 we would. He is prompt, caring, follows up very quickly with availability and answering questions, and we recommend him to anyone looking for a pet sitter. His flexibility helped us a ton as our request was last minute and we felt a little scattered with our plans. We felt very comfortable, our new kitten loved him and he is extremely knowledgeable! Also, he met with us prior to watching Pearl and answered all our questions. Highly recommend!!”

“Ben did a stand-out job when it came to drop-in visits for our dog while we were out of town. He reviewed our request with such detail that he was able to spot a mistake I made with the booking & ultimately ensure that our dog got the best care under his watch. He offered to meet our pup before we left town & they hit it off right away! The picture updates Ben sent with each drop-in was proof that our dog was being treated well & was happy to see Ben each time he stopped by. We are so appreciative of Ben & the care he provided our dog while we were out of town.”

“Beth was amazing with our three boy cats ! We were gone almost 2 weeks and when we got back, they were content and happy. A huge bonus is that the area where our cats have their litter box and their food station was spotless. I cannot recommend Beth highly enough.”
“Terry is a caring and attentive cat-sitter that we were delighted to have watching over our 5 cats. It’s not easy to handle the various food patterns and routine that each of our babies prefer, but she handled it with ease and kindness. We cannot say how much we appreciated her - she gave us detailed updates and made sure everyone was comfortable and happy while we were out for a week. Thank you!!”

“100% would recommend S&J! I had an unique circumstance of coming from out of town for a family event and Sheila accepted my 8 month old pup, Reggie, for the day. She provided constant updates and made me feel comfortable leaving him for the day without them every meeting. Thank you so much!”
“We'd highly recommend Angie as a sitter! Our dog has pretty bad separation anxiety, and Angie made sure she felt comfortable while in her care. She's very attentive and provides lots of updates and pictures!”
“Daniel was fantastic!! Very kind and welcoming. He eased my worries of leaving my dog as soon as I met him. I can’t thank him enough for today. He really helped me out by watching my dog at the last minute. My dog loved him!! I don’t think he wanted to leave. Daniel sent me pictures of my dog having a great time at his house. Those pictures are priceless. My dog is smiling in them😊 I will definitely be using Daniel in the future. Thank you again Daniel. It was very nice meeting you!!”

About: I have a sweet beagle that was rescued 7 years ago. I am fully responsible for his care, including feeding, walking, bathing, nail trimming, etc. I always check him for ticks after visiting a park and know how to safely remove them. I enjoy going for long walks, especially in summer, so would be glad to give your dog exercise. My kids have had goats, rabbits, chickens, turkeys, and ducks, which are all fun to play with, and I would be glad to care for your less-typical pets, if needed. I have even cared for lizards and snakes. I am a teacher, so have loads of time available in the summer. During the school year, I am available most weekends and after 4 on weekdays. I always keep dogs on leash when walking them...you never know when a squirrel or other dog will come by or how they will react.
About: While growing up, I fed, watered, played with, and walked our family friends. I even picked up poop! As an adult, I've done it all, from cleaning major messes to administering meds. I love canines and felines of all varieties, from the smallest to the largest! I am available to care for your pet(s) throughout the business day. Although I am also doing some volunteer work, I keep a regular schedule. I will care for your pets according to your express instructions. They will be treated as my own with as much love and concern as I can provide.

About: I have owned and cared for more than 50 animals in my 38 years 🥰 I currently have a 3 year old cat, a 2 year old cat, and a 1 year old cat. I had 2 dogs over the course of almost 19 years (12 years old and 16 years old when they passed). I grew up with skunks, cats, dogs, hamsters, lizards, and more. I also have been fostering with local rescues for more than 10 years. Overall, I am just a big animal lover and find joy in watching other people's fur babies 🥰 I work from home full time, which allows me to have a flexible schedule. Evenings, weekends, and overnights can also be arranged. If you need anything overnight I prefer to stay at your home with your pets so they are comfortable and can stay in their normal routine. Let's discuss your needs! I am happy to follow whatever instructions you have for me to care for your furbabies! I know each pet is different. Generally, dogs go out to potty several times a day, as well as need fresh food and water daily. Cats also need fresh food and water daily, plus cleaning their litter boxes at least once a day.
About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life. When a couple of years ago we lost our senior family dog, I started volunteering with a local rescue and have fostered 20+ puppies over the past few years. Fostering has given me experience with everything from energetic, playful pups to post-surgery care—things like baths, basic grooming, medications (even injections), vet pickups, and lots of patience and love. I also help neighbors with dog walking and pet sitting, so I’m used to different personalities and routines. I truly just love being around dogs—and getting outside for walks is a bonus for me too! I’m available for afternoon and evening walks or check-ins during the week. On weekends, I have much more flexibility and I am available throughout the day for walks, check-ins, or multiple visits if needed. I’m also happy to stick to your dogs’s usual routine to keep them comfortable and happy. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. During walks and check-ins, I follow your instructions closely, keep dogs secure on leash, and make sure they get the right balance of exercise, attention, and care. I’m attentive, reliable, and treat every pet like my own.
“Gay was awesome! We were staying in our RV at a local campground and wanted to do a day of sightseeing. Gay came to out RV twice, then nice to meet our pup and us, and then again to walk the dog while we were away. She was kind, helpful and obviously loves dogs! Highly recommend!”

About: Hi! I’m Hannah, and I absolutely love pets of all kinds. I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and have cared for three of my own. I’ve also provided dog-sitting and cat-sitting over the years, which has given me a strong understanding of different personalities, routines, and care needs. I treat every pet like family and focus on creating a fun, safe, and loving environment. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I prioritize giving each pet consistent attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. A typical day starts with morning potty breaks, fresh water, and a walk or play session to get their energy out. Throughout the day, I provide regular check-ins, feeding on schedule, enrichment activities, and lots of love. I stay flexible so I can match your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I follow whatever routine the owner prefers to make your pet feel comfortable and at home.

About: I've had dogs off and on my entire life but it wasn't until we adopted our baby girl Coco that I really fell in love. We had 13.5 wonderful years with her, then after she passed we decided to foster dogs in her honor and have been doing this since Sept. 2020 with several local organizations. We have fostered 25 dogs and have sat 26 dogs to date, including puppies, senior dogs, and dogs with behavioral and medical special needs. Our pricing reflects the peace of mind of knowing that your pet is well cared for and part of our family during their stay with us. Or for in house sitting, we are mature, reliable and trustworthy and treat your home like our own. We look forward to hearing from you! My husband and I are retired so we are very flexible in our schedule and decided we want to do something meaningful and enjoyable in our retirement. We have a large 1.5 acre lot with a pond on property. It is very serene and peaceful here. Our yard is only partially fenced so we keep the dogs on leash when walking outside. We make frequent potty breaks and like to take dogs for walks in the woods behind our house. They dogs usually sleep on a bed on the floor in our bedroom but will be crated if we have to leave the house for their own safety.

“We were very pleased with the care given to our two dogs during our 7 day trip. Anna was great to keep us informed daily, text back quickly and stay on top of things. For the first time in many years, we actually had a relaxed vacation. We certainly will plan on using Anna again in the future.”
“She did a great job and my usually very shy and scared cat warmed up to Stephanie and her family fairly quickly! I have nothing but good things to say about her. Also, she was very flexible on the pick up time and I couldn’t be more appreciative. Highly recommend to use her for your animal sitting needs!”
“Melanie was great taking care of our little Charlie. She gave him lots of attention and he really enjoyed being at her home. She also gave us updates on how he was doing.”
“They helped me out TONS by watching my Shih Tzu for about 6 days. I’ve never used Rover before, so I was a little hesitant at first. Everything went smooth and they were flexible on drop off & pickup times since we drove all day. My dog seemed extremely comfortable @ pickup and we got several pics throughout the week! I would definitely book with them again.”
“Colleen was great, and accommodating of a last minute request for sitting. I received daily updates with photos, and my dog seemed very happy. No issues noted, and will definitely use her again - on a monthly basis if possible!”
“Lana did a great job looking after my dogs for the long weekend! She sent photos and kept me up to date with how they were doing. One of my dogs needs medication twice a dog which was administered. There is a lot of space on her property for playing and my dogs had lots of fun!”
“Amazing dog sitter, would highly recommend. You can really tell that she and her husband care and love the dogs so much. So glad and reassured that Miso was in their hands for a week and had so much fun. Would book again for future trips!”
“We had a wonderful experience! Karin took excellent care of our dog, kept us updated, and sent photos. She made sure our dog got plenty of walks, play time and snuggles. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup, and we wouldn't hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Thank you Brittany for caring for our girl while we were on vacation.She was so relaxed and calm when we returned gave us piece of mind to see the picture of her relaxing with your family. "The Fleshman Family "”

“Mac had a great overnight with Katie! I really appreciated all the texts and pictures Katie sent, especially since it was our puppy’s first night away. I can tell that Mac was given lots of care and attention. We will definitely book with Katie again!”
