Theresa took excellent care of Lucy. Very happy with our experience and would totally have our dog stay there again. She was enthusiastic of a meet in greet, wanted to learn about our dog, accommodated refrigerated food, very communicative throughout the stay, and Lucy seemed very happy there! Thanks so much, Theresa!

Janet was wonderful! This was the first time I've left our chocolate lab with someone we didn't know. She had a great time at doggie day camp, playing with her dogs, lots of walks, including to the creek, and treats galore! We are grateful to have found someone who will love our girl and take such good care of her while we are gone.

About: I have looked after both dogs and cats for multiple years of friends and family. What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of personalized care I give to each pet. I treat your pet like family, whether that means sticking closely to their routine, giving them extra cuddles, or understanding their unique quirks and needs. I have experience with a wide range of pets, including dogs and cats of all sizes and breeds. I'm comfortable administering medication and even handling leash reactivity for dogs. Clear communication, reliability, and genuine love for animals are at the core of everything I do. I currently work full-time but will be leaving soon to continue my education in a Masters program! I am available most Wednesdays and weekends as well as majority of evenings during the week. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my top priorities are keeping their routine consistent, making them feel safe and loved, and respecting your space as if it were my own. I take the time to learn your pet’s habits, feeding schedule, walk routine if applicable, and favorite toys or activities. Whether it’s playtime, quiet companionship, or a long walk, I adjust to what your pet needs most. I also send regular updates and photos, so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. Cleanliness, clear communication, and attention to detail are part of every visit.

About: My family has always had animals and we couldn’t live without them. I’ve always been the biggest animal lover 🖤🐾 no matter the size or breed, I’ll treat them like I would my own! My current schedule is flexible. I am always wanting to help others and I’ve been successful with making plans that work best for me and my clients needs. I prioritize my own health so daily walking and playing with your fur babies will be enjoyable for the both of us! 🥰 I am a nurse first but if I didn’t take care of humans for a living, I’d take care of pets without a doubt.

I've taken care of animals since I was kiddo, and currently share a roof with three cats and one pup. Friends, family, former employers, and my very own animals trust me to watch, walk, feed, water, groom (brushing, bathing, trimming nails) and lavish their cats and dogs with attention. My availability varies, as I work in the Events field, but I am ready and interested to take on regular weekday workday (9-5) walking duties with your pups! As a guest in your home, I will show your space and family the utmost respect. Being invited into your family's space is a privilege.

About: I'm always available and I love all animals. I'm CPR certified and I calm with emergency situations and know how to handle them. I have two dogs of my own and a spoiled rotten cat as well as a friend who lives with me and helps with the animals. I am very flexible with my hours and rates. I'm open to sitting for cats and dogs only. In emergencies I will be happy to transport to owners vet at their expense. I do not potty train. All animals must have some obedience training and be housebroken before I can make any pet sitting exceptions. I will provide food, toys, crates, or anything your pet needs during its stay. I can't wait to start watching your pet. I am willing to help with obedience training. For grooming or any kind of pet services I will need copies of vaccination records as well as emergency contact numbers as you pet will use my own professional groomer who is paid 40.00 per pet at your expense & I will need time to book an appointment in advance with a groomer. I am home all the time, I stay home so I can take care of my own dogs & keep my home clean. Rover is my job I have a fenced in run connected to an enclosed patio & I allow them to be inside bedrooms in their crates or play in my living room & kitchen area with supervision, they must be house broken

About: I have been pet sitting for over five years on a regular basis. I have been around cats and dogs my whole life. I have worked in a dog kennel/doggy day care in the past. I am confident and experienced with giving diabetic injections or medications. I am confident with dogs,cats,rabbits,lizards,snakes, hamsters, mice,and fish. I love animals and make sure to spend extra time with them. I am currently a homemaker and have a very flexible schedule. I can do small walks or check on pets a few times a day as needed. I make sure the pets get plenty of bathroom breaks and attention. I try to get them to play or take them on walks to get energy out. I can even water plants and pickup the mail.

About: You can trust your pup with me! My love for dogs and animals started when I was a child and has grown into a deep bond and genuine care for every dog I meet. I truly go above and beyond when it comes to pet care — and in my book, a little spoiling is always included. ;) I’ve had decades of hands-on experience caring for dogs since 2004, from training my first Mini Schnauzer, Ally, as a puppy to providing specialized senior care as she got older. In 2009, my husband and I rescued our first senior Schnauzer, Smokey, and cared for him through several medical issues including seizures, gastroenteritis, and inner ear infections. I’m extremely attentive to a dog’s needs, personality, comfort, and safety, and I always stay alert to make sure they’re happy, secure, and out of trouble. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your fur baby, and I would care for your dog like one of my own. *Please note: I can only accommodate dogs up to 15 lbs. Requests above this size will be declined. Please do not request bookings for larger dogs. I’m a stay-at-home pet parent, which allows me to give my full attention and care to both my own dog and the pets staying with me. At our home, pets are treated like family and will receive lots of love, attention, supervision, and playtime throughout the day. We have a securely fenced yard for safe outdoor time, potty breaks, and play, but dogs will always be supervised while outside. I pay close attention to each dog’s personality, comfort level, routines, and needs to help them feel safe and relaxed while away from home. Whether your pup enjoys playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply relaxing in a calm environment, I’m happy to accommodate their routine as closely as possible. I also understand the importance of consistency, patience, and attentiveness, especially for senior dogs or pets with special needs.

Our previous sitter told me they are moving, which prompted me to search for a new sitter. I decided to try Rebecca, and am I glad I did! I was happy with our first sitter, but LuLu spent her time there just sniffing their yard and snuggling up on the couch with the sitter. She barely ate and wouldn't play with their dog. It was such a delight to see how happy LuLu was at Rebecca's place. She ran around the yard like I haven't seen her do since she was a puppy. When Rebecca thought LuLu needed a rest and brought her inside, LuLu whined to go back out, so out she went for more running around! Finally, she took a nap on the couch, then got up and ate all of her dinner. Then she settled down chewing on her toy until we came back for her. She was happy to see us, but gave Rebecca a tail wag when they said goodbye. I'm so glad LuLu found a place where she can thrive when we're gone. Now I won't hesitate to book a vacation! Rebecca was very attentive to the history I gave her about LuLu and my instructions about her routine and fears. We did a Meet & Greet on short notice, and Rebecca showed LuLu and me her back yard and inside her house. She assured me that she would never give LuLu an opportunity to run away. The way Rebecca gave me updates all day long assured me that LuLu was being well cared for and was having a great time. Rebecca is definitely Lulu's new sitter. I couldn't be happier with her care.

About: I love animals of all kinds and enjoy caring for them as if they were my own. I have experience watching neighbors', friends', and family members' furry companions, and I understand how important it is to provide them with loving, reliable care. Whether it's going for walks, playing at the dog park, or simply giving them plenty of attention and affection, I'll make sure your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you're away. I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby! I am available Monday threw Sunday at any time after 8am. If it’s a emergency, I will take your fur baby before 8am. I look forward to meeting your fur baby. All dogs will be on a leash when I take them out to use the bathroom. I do not have a fenced in backyard. I only crate animals if you request that and you provide your own crate. Other wise I allow all animals to roam the house freely.

Kimberly was absolutely phenomenal and so kind! Our senior fur baby has a lot of extra needs, so we’ve always put date days aside to ensure we wouldn’t have to leave her home alone. From the first text interaction with Kimberly to meeting in person - we knew that we found someone we could trust! We got picture updates throughout the day, and each care instruction we provided was taken very serious. We will definitely be trusting Kimberly with our fur baby in the future. Thank you SO much!

About: I have taken care of dogs sense I can remember. Walking and grooming them. Playing with them and just cuddling them. I think of dogs as my all time favorite stress reliever and simply enjoy their company. My dog Newton accompanies me to work as well and makes a great therapy dog with his laid back attitude and lovable heart. I’m currently working part time but I am available on Sundays, Fridays, and half days on Mondays. Also walking in the evenings most any day after 5 pm.0 and near by lake for walks, also my little 20 lb dog who thinks everyone is his friend. He has a very gentle spirit and is more of a passive dog than a alpha leader.

About: I'm always available and I love all animals. I'm CPR certified and I calm with emergency situations and know how to handle them. I have two dogs of my own and a spoiled rotten cat as well as a friend who lives with me and helps with the animals. I am very flexible with my hours and rates. I'm open to sitting for cats and dogs only. In emergencies I will be happy to transport to owners vet at their expense. I do not potty train. All animals must have some obedience training and be housebroken before I can make any pet sitting exceptions. I will provide food, toys, crates, or anything your pet needs during its stay. I can't wait to start watching your pet. I am willing to help with obedience training. For grooming or any kind of pet services I will need copies of vaccination records as well as emergency contact numbers as you pet will use my own professional groomer who is paid 40.00 per pet at your expense & I will need time to book an appointment in advance with a groomer. I am home all the time, I stay home so I can take care of my own dogs & keep my home clean. Rover is my job I have a fenced in run connected to an enclosed patio & I allow them to be inside bedrooms in their crates or play in my living room & kitchen area with supervision, they must be house broken

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and over 40 years of hands-on pet care experience. I’m very comfortable with large breeds and currently own a German Shepherd, so I understand the structure, exercise, and consistency they need. I’m also experienced with puppies, seniors, feeding routines, and daily care. One of the main reasons I do pet care is because I know how hard it can be to find someone who truly works around a real schedule. Many sitters expect dogs to be done for the night far too early, which simply doesn’t work for most households. I believe dogs should be let out when they actually need to go — including later evening potty breaks. Now retired, I have the flexibility to design drop-ins around your dog’s normal routine, whether that’s meals, walks, playtime, or letting them out between 9–10pm. I treat every pet like my own and focus on calm, dependable, loving care so you can leave with peace of mind. I’m retired and have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets the time and attention they deserve. Because I’m not rushing between commitments, I can accommodate early mornings, later evenings, and customized routines for meals, walks, and potty breaks. Pet care fits naturally into my daily life, and I truly enjoy spending time with animals. My goal is to make sure your pet’s routine stays as normal and stress-free as possible while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I carefully follow all instructions and take time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and needs. I’m experienced with large breeds, puppies, seniors, and pets who need consistency and structure. In your home, I’m respectful, reliable, and attentive. I make sure doors and gates are secure, routines are followed carefully, and pets are never rushed. I’m happy to provide updates during visits so you know your pet is doing well. If requested, I’m also happy to bring in mail or packages during visits, which can be helpful while you’re away. Being retired allows me to be fully present and attentive, so both your pet and your home are well cared for.

About: Hi there! I'm a young professional who's grown up surrounded by animals ever since I can remember. This lifelong love led me to officially launch my own pet care business in my hometown at 14, and I've continued providing these services as I've relocated to different cities. Now, with about a decade of professional experience and a work-from-home arrangement, I can offer your pets consistent care and attention throughout the day. I've cared for all sorts of pets – from energetic puppies to senior pets needing extra TLC. Whether it's following special diets, administering medications, or using that one trick that always calms an anxious rescue, I adapt to each pet's unique needs. My remote work situation allows me to be available for midday walks, regular check-ins, or just some extra cuddle time when needed. Communication is crucial to me, so you can expect consistent updates and photos of your pets if desired. By choosing me, you're securing a dependable, seasoned, and adaptable caregiver who'll treat your fuzzy family members with the devotion and care all animals deserve. Let's work together to keep your pets happy and healthy! As a work-from-home professional, pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine. I'm available throughout the day for walks, feedings, playtime, and check-ins. Work officially ends around 4:30pm for me most days - however, my flexible schedule allows me to accommodate various pet care needs, anywhere between early morning visits to evening care. Weekends are open for more extensive services like boarding/home stays. I'm committed to working with you to provide consistent, attentive care that fits your pet's routine and your schedule. I prioritize the safety and comfort of pets in both their homes and mine. For in-home care, I follow your specific instructions meticulously, respecting your space and your pet's familiar environment. In my home, I maintain a pet-friendly space with secure areas for play and rest. I'm experienced in administering medications, following dietary requirements, and adapting to each pet's unique needs.

About: I have looked after both dogs and cats for multiple years of friends and family. What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of personalized care I give to each pet. I treat your pet like family, whether that means sticking closely to their routine, giving them extra cuddles, or understanding their unique quirks and needs. I have experience with a wide range of pets, including dogs and cats of all sizes and breeds. I'm comfortable administering medication and even handling leash reactivity for dogs. Clear communication, reliability, and genuine love for animals are at the core of everything I do. I currently work full-time but will be leaving soon to continue my education in a Masters program! I am available most Wednesdays and weekends as well as majority of evenings during the week. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my top priorities are keeping their routine consistent, making them feel safe and loved, and respecting your space as if it were my own. I take the time to learn your pet’s habits, feeding schedule, walk routine if applicable, and favorite toys or activities. Whether it’s playtime, quiet companionship, or a long walk, I adjust to what your pet needs most. I also send regular updates and photos, so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. Cleanliness, clear communication, and attention to detail are part of every visit.

About: I've always had dog(s) in my household since I was a little boy. I've seen them all, hyper dogs, lazy dogs, mean dogs, social dogs, and dogs that think that they're human. In my experience in dealing with all of these personalities I've noticed one trait that is essential in dog-care, patience. Patience is something that I have no shortage of, I've seen it all. Trust me, I've seen the nitty, the gritty, and the nasty...nothing can scare me away. In terms of my tangible experience, I've logged an immense amount of hours volunteering at animal shelters and pet-sitting for various friends and family. I'm a huge advocate for exercise and fitness for pets so if you leave your dog with me, I guarantee that we will be going on runs and playing outside.

About: I’ve been pet sitting for over 10 years and have a lifelong love for animals. As a dog owner myself with two dogs at home, I understand how important it is to find someone who will care for your pets the same way you do. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pet loves long walks, playing fetch, cuddling on the couch, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m experienced with feeding schedules, administering basic medications, potty breaks, exercise, and providing plenty of attention and affection. I also know how reassuring it is to receive updates, so I’ll send photos and messages throughout your pet’s stay or visit to give you peace of mind. My goal is to create a fun, safe, and stress-free experience for both you and your pet. I treat every animal as if they were my own, and I can’t wait to meet your furry family members! I currently do work full time but I do create my own schedule and am pretty flexible so we can work around the hours needed for you and your pet! I do currently have two male dogs who are 8 and 9 years old. They both are very friendly and very playful. They play with puppies and older dogs very well and they’re very diverse with sizes of dogs who they are around. If your dog is aggressive to other male dogs, this won’t be a good fit for you. However, i’m happy to have an introduction to make sure everyone is comfortable. We tend to take a lot of walks and play ball in the yard throughout the day. During the summer we swim in the pop up pool we have for the boys and get the zooms out!

John was very kind and accommodating through adjustments I had to make regarding my trip and my booking for dog sitting. And, he took such good care of my Tilly, updating me daily.

Theresa took excellent care of Lucy. Very happy with our experience and would totally have our dog stay there again. She was enthusiastic of a meet in greet, wanted to learn about our dog, accommodated refrigerated food, very communicative throughout the stay, and Lucy seemed very happy there! Thanks so much, Theresa!

I took Margot for her first day care day with Samantha today and Margot absolutely loved it! Samantha sent me photos and updates all day and I was sure she was taking good care of my baby! Samantha is very flexible and communicative and Margot will definitely become her regular client. 100% recommend her!

Emily did an amazing job taking care of our dog Gamora. She had so much fun playing with the other dogs in Emily's care. We boarded Gamora with Emily for a week and we definitely recommend her! She is very sweet and always takes good care of our girl and updated us everyday with plenty of cute pictures!

Janet was wonderful! This was the first time I've left our chocolate lab with someone we didn't know. She had a great time at doggie day camp, playing with her dogs, lots of walks, including to the creek, and treats galore! We are grateful to have found someone who will love our girl and take such good care of her while we are gone.

Marah is probably the kindest person on the planet. Her and her husband watched my two rambunctious puppies for an entire day while I had an emergency in TN to take care of. I will be back!

Super friendly, & worked with us when we were in a bind, to watch our dog at the last minute. Everything went really well! She even sent us a pic! We highly recommend Katie, & hopefully she will always be our go-to sitter, from now on. :)

I was nervous about leaving Louis with anyone but I’m so glad he was left in Kimberly’s care. She is super nice and took great care of my baby. She also kept me updated with photos throughout the visit so I knew he was doing okay. I would be booking with Kimberly again if I’m back in the area and would recommend her to anyone!

Every time we drop our dogs over there, they come back happy and tired from having a lot of exercise and fun with the other dogs. I would definitely recommend leaving your dog with them. I would definitely use them again also.

David Is calm and caring and took great care of Watson. I don’t often leave Watson but when I do he usually comes home unnerved. That was not the case this time. Thank you!

About: I began volunteering at my local animal shelter at the age of 9 and have been caring for animals ever since. I have 20 years experience pet sitting for neighbors and I have my own 6 year old pitbull, Cleo, so I’m no stranger to energetic dogs. I’m a teacher, so my summers give me full flexibility to care for your animals! I love to walk dogs on local greenways and trails. SCHOOL YEAR UPDATE: I’m still happy to provide boarding, walking, and drop in visits outside of school hours. I am unable to be home or care for pets from 7am-3pm each day. If your dog can be left for 8 hours, boarding continues to be available during the school year. I have a fenced in backyard where your dog can play. If they like to play with a buddy, my dog will be their best friend!

Erin and Matthew were absolutely amazing! Our small dog takes a while to warm up to people but by the end of the trip they were best friends!! They sent constant picture updates and even snapped a beautiful Christmas photo of our babies! 1000% will rebook thank you for taking such good care of our pups!!

About: I love caring for dogs and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away. I’m patient with dogs of all sizes and personalities and always follow feeding schedules, provide regular potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention so every dog feels at home. I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available most days of the week, including weekends. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, walks, and playtime throughout the day. I’m happy to work with different schedules and last-minute bookings whenever possible I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Since I don’t have a fenced yard, I take dogs on regular walks for exercise, potty breaks, and fresh air. I also provide plenty of attention, playtime, and follow the pet’s normal feeding schedule and routines. My goal is to make pets feel relaxed and at home while their owners are away.
