“Connie L. is absolutely amazing. She took such wonderful care of our girl. Sent us some great pictures. Shiloh was happy to me but didn’t want to come home because she enjoyed being at Connie’s so much! Thank You for everything!”
“I recently had the pleasure of using Christopher for 4.5 days, and I couldn’t be more impressed with the level of care and professionalism. From the moment I dropped Titus off, I felt at ease knowing he was in capable hands. Overall, I highly recommend Christopher to any pet owner looking for trustworthy, compassionate, and reliable dog care. We’re grateful for the wonderful care Titus received and will definitely book again.”
“My big furry baby Dream loves to stay with Megan. I feel at ease when we go away and she’s with Megan. I know she’s safe and cared for exceptionally. Side note: I love the photos that Megan sends me of Dream.”
“Audree is the best! She took such awesome care of my big baby, Charlie! I loved getting updates and pics. Anyone looking for top notch care for their fur baby- Audree is the one! Only downside I had is that Charlie didn’t want to leave! She is so patient and knowledgeable. I cannot sing her praises enough.”
“Wow! I cannot express how amazing Lorena and her family are. This was our first time leaving our two Shih Tzus overnight and we received regular text messages with pictures and updates, always very personable. Prior to their stay, we visited Lorena upon her request, to make sure the stay would be a good fit. This gave me peace of mind, knowing she has a screening process. I learned about Lorena from two of my neighbors who shared really positive feedback, so I went into this first stay confident. When picking up our Tzu's they were happy, healthy and obviously well loved. Many thanks to Lorena and her family for being a second family to our babies while we were away <3”
“We boarded Gigi with Amber for a week. Gigi initially would not eat or drink. But Amber was patient with Gigi coaxing her to eat her food. We would definitely board with Amber again.”
“We are so happy we found Laurie to take care of our 12 year old Aussie. After the initial meet and greet she was able to take him in for a few nights while we were on travel at the last minute. Laurie is super friendly and you can tell she really cares for the pets she’s watching. All of the other dogs that she watches were all really friendly as well and we are really grateful that’s he got a lot of playtime in her fenced in back yard. Laurie was also super communicative and sent multiple updates and pictures everyday which we really appreciated. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“Ligia, thank you so much for taking such great care of Cranberry. This was her first time away from home. You were so accommodating to her needs. Thank you for treating her like a princess.”
“Since our first use of Rover, this has been the best visit/offering of service thus far! Sonja &Phil maintained communication and provided photos throughout her entire stay, provided proper feeding (I always give a little extra and sitters would never have any to return), and she came back well and in good health (not the case on 2 occasions with another sitter). I appreciated that Roxy was still able to get outdoors in a enclosed area and I'm sure she did as well because she loves being outdoors. Highly recommend and I'll definitely be looking to use their services again!”
“Morgan was absolutely wonderful with Luna and Bella. He was so sweet and patient with them, made sure they were fed on time, and always gave them plenty of time outside to play in the yard. He really paid attention to the little details and even gave us helpful recommendations to improve how we care for the dogs, which we truly appreciated. He was always on time, very responsible, and super patient when loading them up. His communication was on point; he kept us updated every day without us even having to ask. We’re so thankful we found him and are already planning to book him again for future pet sitting. Highly recommend!”
“I can't express enough how grateful I am for the wonderful care River receives at his home away from home. From the very first visit, it was clear that River was going to be treated like family. Their warm and welcoming environment makes every stay a delight. They go above and beyond to ensure River feels comfortable and loved. Whether it's engaging him in playtime, providing treats, or simply showering him with affection, their dedication shines through. I love receiving updates and pictures, which reassure me that he’s having a fantastic time. Knowing that River is in such capable hands allows me to relax and enjoy my time away. I wholeheartedly recommend to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy home for their pets. Thank you for everything you do for River! 🐕 ♥️”
“Wonderful care for our Miss Etta James. Considerate n amazing family interactions.... loved how your family was so involved. Thanks n looking for Etta to stay w you again. Love Rhonda Garry n Miss Etta 💚☘️”
“Yoda spent 10 days with Seyla, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience! She had such a great time that I’m pretty sure she thought she was on vacation. 😂 Seyla is an excellent animal caretaker, and you can immediately tell how much he genuinely loves animals. All of the animals in his care are incredibly well looked after—plenty of walks, good food, lots of attention, playtime, and fun. Staying at Seyla’s house is basically like going to a doggie resort! The dogs get to play, run around, swim, and just have the best time. One of the things I appreciated most was how communicative Seyla was. He sent me multiple videos of Yoda every single day, so even though I was away for 10 days, I felt like Yoda never really left me. I could see how happy, comfortable, and well cared for she was throughout her entire stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. Seyla is also incredibly accommodating. My friend was supposed to pick Yoda up for me, but his flight was delayed by a day. I contacted Seyla, and he had no problem extending Yoda’s stay for an extra night. I would absolutely trust Seyla with Yoda again. Knowing that she is somewhere safe, loved, well cared for, and having the time of her life makes traveling so much easier. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone who will treat their dog like one of his own. Yoda will definitely be back! ❤️🐶”
“Our old pup absolutely loves staying with Julie’s family. She takes wonderful care of him, navigating his picky eating and various joint medications. He comes home so tired - from both the outdoor time and the social interactions, I am sure. I trust Julie completely with his care and will continue to use her for our dog sitting needs as long as she will have us.”
“Eldeen and Eugene have been our pups favorite second family for a while now. They are the reason I am always at ease whenever I have to go away on a business trip or a family holiday. I get updates via photos and their pick up/drop off service is effortless. Eldeen and Eugene are the gold stars of quality care for your pet. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“This was my first time using this type of service to board my senior dog, and I must say that it was a blessing to find Sarah. She cared for Princess as if she was her own. Sarah provided me with status updates and went the extra mile. Will definitely use her services in the future. Thanks Sarah! You are the best!”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter than Sydney. From the moment we met her, she was incredibly friendly and easy to communicate with—someone we instantly felt we could trust. She was reliable every step of the way, and our two cats absolutely adored her. Sydney went above and beyond by sending us frequent photo updates, which not only showed how happy and relaxed our cats were, but also gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Thanks to her attentive care, we were able to fully enjoy our vacation knowing our pets were in the best hands. Highly recommend Sydney to anyone looking for a kind, dependable, and truly caring sitter!”
About: I am an avid animal lover of all kinds and have in the more recent years been able to care for feline only families and have gotten quite used to their care. I have plenty of references on cats of all ages, litter boxes of all kinds, feeding time with both raw and kibble, cats that need to be seperated or are fine playing together. Diabetic kitties. You name it. I’ve handled it.
“TOP ENDORSEMENT: Pet care is Kimberly's career. This dedication & training are evident in her professional in-person demeanor and ease with animals. Kimberly sat my two male, semi-feral cats for a week and I couldn't be happier with her care. Food, water, and litterbox cleaning was EXACTLY as I asked. The aloof, don't-touch-me cat now adores her. She was even kind enough to water my money tree and stack my mail. Her expertise and depth of experience enabled me to travel completely WORRY FREE. Highly recommend!”
“Jessica is amazing. I have used her several times when away and she is consistent and thorough. I was gone during the snowstorm and she (with my neighbor) shoveled the walkway and stayed on schedule seeing the cats. It was so comforting knowing they were taken care of during the storm when I was gone.”
About: Hi! I’m an active dog lover and runner who loves starting my mornings outside, and I’d love to help your pup do the same! 🐾 I know how busy work schedules can get, and sometimes dogs just need a chance to stretch their legs, burn some energy, and enjoy some fresh air. I offer morning walks and drop-ins to help your pet get exercise before the heat of the day sets in. Whether your dog needs a chill walk or to get some miles in I’ll treat them like my own. I have years of hands-on experience caring for my own animals and understand that every pet has their own personality and activity needs. Let me help your pup start their day happy, exercised, and ready to relax while you focus on whatever your day brings! 🫶🏻☀️ Im currently working as a bartender in the evenings and am studying at germanna online this semester. I enjoy getting some miles in early before it gets hot to get the day started right. Each booking I will come prepared with water, a portable bowl, and potty bags. If your dog is food motivated please feel free to leave me your dogs favorite training snack or kib to bring along for our walk. As someone with a dog who has a sensitive tummy I will never provide any food items to your dog unless it is provided and explicitly directed to.
“Camryn and her husband cared for my two cats while my husband is on vacation. They sent us updates and were flexible with drop off and pick up. They were accompanying to my cats needs and they were happy and healthy upon pick up. Definitely will be requesting their services again!”
About: I’m a devoted cat mom to Dexter and Burger King, an older rescue who joined our family at 11 years old. I understand that every cat has their own personality, boundaries, and preferred way of receiving attention. I take the time to learn each cat’s routine and follow their feeding, water, and litter instructions carefully. I’m happy to provide playtime, cuddles, and companionship when invited, while also respecting cats who need more time or personal space. I’m thorough about litter box care and cleanup, and I’ll send plenty of photos and updates so you can feel confident that your cat is safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.
“Jessica did a wonderful job checking on our older cat who can sometimes be particular with who he shows affection to and has some quirks. She left great pictures and updates and that put us at ease on our vacation.”
“Lisa has watched our cat for a few years now and always does a great job! She sends us pictures, gives him his daily medicine, and this year sent a reminder that we should get his meds refilled soon. When we get home, our cat always seems happy and not totally starved for attention since Lisa has been there once a day to give him pets 🙂”
About: I've watched pets of family and friends since I was a kid and always enjoyed it. I always make sure to spend plenty of time and give them as much attention as they want. For dogs, I did walks, gave bathroom breaks, play time, cleaned up accidents, and fed them. For cats I'll do the same, except walks. I am available everyday for the foresable future, on the bright side that leaves me with no commitments where I won't be able to watch your pets For my own cats, I fill the water and food bowls daily, as well as clean the litter boxes. Throughout the day I provide them with affection or a warm lap/bed. For dogs I will make sure they're completely safe outside and watch for any other dogs or cars. Inside I will do the same with my cats.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life. I’ve spent the last 15 years taking care of friends, neighbors and clients pets. The last 6 years I’ve rescued and been a foster mom for local dog rescue. Very comfortable working with dogs, seniors and puppies as they adjust to new people, surroundings and experiences. I’m currently working part time and home during the day so your loved ones getting plenty of attention! I can offer pick up/drop off for boarding if needed. I am mindful of your space and routine with your loved ones and will treat your home with respect. If boarding, I have dog friendly home with plenty of couches, pet beds and decks to lounge on. I have huge yard so can spend plenty of outdoor time if they want. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. I carefully follow each pet parent's instructions regarding feeding, walking routes, routines, and any special needs. Before every walk, I make sure the leash, collar, or harness is properly secured, and I remain alert to traffic, weather conditions, other animals, and anything that could make the pet uncomfortable. During drop-in visits, I respect the client's home and privacy. I make sure doors, gates, and crates are securely closed, and I never leave a pet outside unattended. I provide a calm, clean, and loving environment while giving each pet personalized attention. I will also send photos and detailed updates so pet parents know their pet is safe and well cared for. Requested information about your pet Before caring for your pet, I would like to learn about their personality, daily routine, energy level, and any special needs. Please let me know about any medical conditions, allergies, medications, fears, triggers, or behavioral

“Larissa is SUPER responsive and our dear puppy absolutely adores hanging out with her and her pups! You can always tell he has a WONDERFUL time because he comes home worn out! We are soooo happy that we found Larissa!”
“Melissa was great at taking care of Dasher Ron short notice. She communicated with me throughout the day and sent pictures. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter!”
“Connie was amazing! Not only did she take great care of our dog, she went out of her way to meet is at the beginning and end of his stay. We were only passing through town and reluctant to entrust our 'child' to a stranger. She quickly put us at ease and we felt very comfortable with leaving Codey with her all day. He had a blast! That was quite evident from the photos and his exhaustion at the end of the day. Thank you Connie!! I hope we can find someone at our new home to live up to your spectacular care.”
“Chris was very patient, flexible, accommodating, and understanding. We had last minute plans and needed someone to look after our Saint Bernard. We did a meet and greet and a daycare session to get her comfortable before we leave and he did a great job!”
“We were visiting from out of town for our sons wedding and needed a last minute sitter. Thankfully we found Megan! Olive had a great time with Megan. She was a happy and worn out pup by the time we picked her up.”
“Tahliyah is an excellent dog sitter! She watched my 6 month old golden doodle for the whole day and provided updates, pics, and videos. Her puppy, Rocket, is very playful and the got along very well. Thankfully, my pup was wiped out when I picked him up and he chilled the rest of the night. I’d recommend Tahliyah and will be utilizing her services again.”
“I was so happy to find this sitter! We just adopted a rescue dog. He has a lot of anxiety. He needs special care while he is adjusting to his new home. Because of his anxiety he needs a low stimulation environment. She has been so good working with my dogs special needs! I can’t say enough good about her!! We are so grateful for the care she has given our dog!!”
“Morgan is amazing ! I’m in the process of selling my home and had a pre-planned event prior to scheduling my open house. Morgan came to pick up my boys they had a blast and he dropped them home after the open house was over! Morgan is a great communicator and it’s evident that he loves dogs and they love him!”
“Our high-energy rescue has been doing great with him and coming home well worn out after doggy daycare. He’s kind enough to accommodate early work hours or a change of plans. Very satisfied! We’ll be booking weekly for daycare.”
“Ligia did a good job caring for my two dogs in their doggie day care stay. Does a good job of slowly introducing new dogs to each other and respecting if certain dogs don't want to play with others. Her house and yard are set up in a way that allows her to separate animals, if needed. She communicated well with me and was available at the agreed upon times. We will be booking with her again in the future.”
“Yeny was kind enough to do a list minute Day Care for us on our Anniversary. Easy drop off and pick up. She was walking her as we arrived to pick up and passed them..! She seemed happy and exercised. The whole family seems to participate in the care of the animals. Yeny took the time to hand feed her a bit at her first dinner away from home to get her started. She took to the time to talk about her day with our pup before we left. It seems to be a caring environment. We will definitely use her again.”
About: I absolutely adore animals. I have four children who are also huge animal lovers so if you board with us in home your pet will be absolutely doted on. Pet parents will be hard pressed to find a family that will take better care of your pet or give them as much love and attention. I love being outside and going on long walks and would love to accompany your dog on their daily walk. We have a tremendous amount of time to play with your pet, take them on walks, and give them the attention they not only require but also deserve. We have a decent sized fenced in yard which is perfect for lots of play time! We are very attentive to animals and have experience giving medication including shots.
“My dog Diego had never been in doggie daycare before and I was nervous to leave him. Also being a puppy, I felt bad knowing he doesn't always know his strength and when to go out. He was evidently a good dog, and I didn't have to come get him early. I highly recommend Eldeen!”
“This was a great day for my baby! This was her first day away from after not even having her a week. I really appreciated the pictures and messages when I was at work. Made me feel more at ease.”
“Connie was amazing with Thor! Besides being available last minute, she went above and beyond. She has a super warm personality and made Thor feel at ease right away. He was so happy to run around in her yard. She even packed some homemade treats for him to take home! She was just fantastic and I highly recommend. We will absolutely reach out again when we need help with our pup.”
About: I have hands on experience caring for my own dogs, including an 8-year-old Corgi and a 3-year old Dachshund. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, so I take the time to make each pet feel safe and at home. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, basic medication routines, and caring for both younger and older dogs. I also know how important communication is, so I’m happy to provide regular photos and updates while your pet is staying with me. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to be home often and available for boarding throughout the week. I can accommodate different drop-off and pick-up times Pets in my home are treated like part of the household. I have a large backyard with plenty of space for dogs to get outside, play, and enjoy some fresh air. I keep the home pet-friendly, supervise outdoor time, and stay careful with doors and entrances to help prevent escapes. I also pay attention to how each dog adjusts to the environment so they can feel comfortable during their stay.
About: Been taking care of pets since I was in Highschool. It was always a fun way to get my pet fix since we didn’t have any growing up! Stay at home mom of 3 young boys so I’m always home. This will give us a new purpose during the day which is much needed. It will also give me the chance to spend time with all these sweet animals instead of trying to own a million of them myself 😂 A bonus of booking with me is your pet will get lots of one on one attention as this is not like your average corporate kennel. We provide a cozy environment within our home. Your animals will get all the love and attention all the while getting treated as one of our own🤍 I am trying to put my sweet boys through private school and thought this would be an awesome way to do so since it’s something me and my whole family will love! Big animal lovers over here:) We will provide a loving home with a big fenced in back yard for all to play. Can’t wait to love on and help take care of/entertain your fur babies!

About: I’ve had plenty of dogs my entire life as well as taken care of friends and families dogs. Overnight, check ins or walking. I love walking dogs especially and playing with all animals. I will provide a safe, caring, and loving environment for your pets so you’re worry free while away from them! Currently between jobs and am a full time online college student. So I am pretty flexible!! If something doesn’t work i’ll just make that clear but I do not have many scheduled things in my day to day. I don’t mind doing feeding, walking, play time! Also don’t mind light clean up if they make a mess while you are gone. My dogs are kind of crazy so I understand messes happen! My dogs have an open back yard but if your dog is trained to walk I will be happy to take them out that way. My dogs get plenty of play time mainly with each other but i’ve done plenty of play time with them myself and can incorporate that with you dogs if they require play time! I also have dealt with older and sick dogs so I know how to be gentle and handle that. I have also had my own cat and watched others, I adore cats. Mine was sick for a while so i’m familiar with oral medication for cats and soothing cats’ anxieties as mine suffered heavily from unknown anxiety.
About: I love all animals and enjoys their company. I'd love to take care of your dog(s) and cats while you're away, so you don't have to worry. When I'm not traveling, I work from home full time, so animals will have plenty of attention and go outside pretty frequently. I have a large yard on rural property and there's a dirt road to get in a several walks. Your dog will have supervised and/or leashed access to the outdoors. There's a lot of room to run. I have had experience handling medications for animals for several years, as my cocker spaniel took medications for glaucoma and congestive heart failure. You can trust that your pup will be spoiled here, like one of my very own. :) I am currently home full time but job hunting so animals have care 24/7. Hoping to find remote work but if this changes I will update here. My animals are friendly with all dogs. I keep all dogs leashes while outdoors. We make sure all doors are closed and all food and poison items are not within reach
About: I have always had a soft spot for animals. I began working in the medical field but once I became a stay at home mom I realized something was missing.. my heart was in the place to care for animals instead. When my youngest was just under 2 I started taking on small dog walking jobs to get us out of the house during Covid and enjoying some fresh air and I really just fell in love with it. I have my own "misfit farm" of unwanted animals and in my down time I am taking on dog walking/pet sitting. I am knowledgeable in many animals including dogs, cats birds, small animals, exotics and farm animals. I currently own a Great Pyrenees, two cane corsos, beagle and we recently lost our mini dachshund, a cat plus 3 rescue goats, bunnies and a ton of chickens. I can also help with basic training and using an E collar. Medications or special needs animals is also something I am comfortable with. I do have kids who love to go on walks with me when I am dog walking, but it is not necessary for them to come with . My dog sitting calendar is filling up quickly! At this moment I am boarding dogs on a case by case basis so just reach out and we can chat! I am available for house sitting, however cannot accommodate regular overnight stays but can accommodate frequent and lengthy visits. I am a mom to 3, but am pretty much open and available for your needs. Hanging out with animals is a strong passion of mine and I often use the extra cash to do things with my kids. I cannot accommodate overnights in my house sitting but can offer lengthy and frequent visits I am available for walking, feeding, caring, loving and walking your babies of whatever species and breed. I am extremely responsible and comfortable with administering medication if need be and am very cautious when it comes to walking or letting the animal outside or when it comes to rules you have for your pet. There is very little I wouldn't be able to do, so little I can't even think of one at the moment. You can trust that I will love and care for your animals like they were my own. I can even show you pictures and videos of my very spoiled pets for reference!
About: I have house/dog sat for 7+ years now around my old neighborhood. I have cared for pets (cats and dogs) of many ages and breeds. I am experienced with giving your fur babies the medications that they may need and the amount of exercise they require. I am experienced with caring for young and old dogs and will personalize care however you prefer. My pup requires a long walk every day so I am used to walking long distances if needed; it is completely up to you to decide! I have a SUPER friendly boxer. He plays very well with other dogs, big and small. He loves all dogs, humans, cats, you name it. I also currently foster for a Belgian Malinois rescue and have a ~2yo mal foster. She is also friendly and does well with dogs but prefers neutrality. If your dog isn’t friendly or prefers alone time, that is also fine! I am easily able to separate dogs so that they can have a neutral environment. I work from home currently, so I am available to take the pups out whenever they need. My dogs usually get a long walk (1-4 miles) and any dogs I watch are welcome to join! If they cannot handle a longer walk they can get a shorter walk before or after my dog’s walk. I leave for about an hour a day to work out or run errands. At most I’m gone 2 hours from my house. I live in a neighborhood and have a semi large yard. My yard is not fenced but I have long lines (leashes) that I will take your dog out on to run and get exercise if they do not prefer walks. They will always be supervised and on-leash outside to prevent any accidents!
About: Hi! I’m Cami, and I live in Fredericksburg with my husband, daughter, and our two cats. I’m a preschool teacher and have been caring for pets since I was 12 years old. Over the years, family, friends, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, and care for their pets while they’re away. I enjoy spending time with animals and understand how important it is to know they’re in good hands. I’d love the opportunity to care for your pet and make sure they’re comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend! I’m currently on maternity leave, which allows me to be available full-time over the next few weeks for pet care, boarding, and drop-in visits. During the school year, I work as a full-time preschool teacher from 6:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., but I’m available before and after work, overnight, and on weekends. I’m happy to work around my teaching schedule to provide reliable care for your pets! We have plenty of space around our home for walks and outdoor time. Our two cats are very friendly and comfortable around other animals. I’m also able to accommodate crating if needed and can care for multiple pets when appropriate.
“I really enjoyed the peace of mind Alexis gave me while I was out of the country. She was prompt, gave me updates/pictures, and communicated very well. I will definitely be using her again in the future! Poppy and Piper also say thank you 🐶🐶”
“Jessica is absolutely amazing! She did a great job with my babies and sent very detailed updates. We will definitely be booking with her going forward. Thank you Jessica!”
“Kimberly was great with Chase as always! She's great at communicating with us, both when things are going great and when things come up and some flexibility is needed. Her concern for Chase is the first priority and we really appreciate that. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve loved and cared for all kinds of animals throughout my life. With dogs specifically, I have experience with puppies, adults, seniors, anxious pets, and multi-pet households. I’ve also administered medications and supported senior pets through end-of-life care. Before changing majors, I studied pre-veterinary medicine, and I have volunteered with several animal rescues. Those experiences strengthened my ability to recognize behavioral cues, respect an animal’s boundaries, and remain calm when a pet needs extra reassurance. Caring for so many different animals has taught me that every pet has their own personality, needs, and way of communicating. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk, quiet companionship, or a familiar routine while you’re away, I’ll care for them with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own pets. I’m self-employed and work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule for weekday, weekend, and holiday care. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and care in your home. I’ll work with you to understand your pet’s usual schedule and maintain as much consistency as possible while they are in my care. As a pet parent myself, I know how stressful it can be to choose the right person and leave your animals in someone else’s care. Before a booking, I prefer to learn about your pet’s routine, personality, triggers, medical needs, and what helps them feel comfortable. I carefully follow all instructions for feeding, medications, walks, and household routines. During walks, I double-check collars and harnesses, keep dogs securely leashed, and remain attentive to our surroundings. During drop-ins and overnight stays, I’m mindful of doors, gates, and other potential escape points. I’ll treat your home with respect and will never bring another person into it without your permission. You’ll receive as many updates, photos, and videos as you’d like, so you always know what your pet is doing and how they are feeling. If I notice any concerning changes in their health or behavior, I’ll contact you promptly.
“Paige is so flexible and understanding. I had to cancel a couple hours before because my husband got sick. She graciously made the changes. She’s also fantastic with our pup. I highly recommend her.”
About: I love pets! I will make sure your pet is well taken of and loved while you are away from your home! I have taken care of a few different pets! I have a busy schedule, but I can make accommodations as needed :) I’m mainly available on Mondays and Thursdays and during the evenings anytime. I make sure your pet is fed and well loved. I will walk your pet 2-3 times a day. I also will spend lots of time with your pet, so that they don’t feel alone.
About: I’ve taken care of two dogs for ten+ years! I’ve grown up around dogs and cats my whole life, especially senior dogs. I’m good at walking and caring for animals in their homes. I work as a substitute teacher and can make my own schedule, so I will have plenty of time to hang with your animals! I am flexible with my schedule and can make last minute drop-ins if needed. I have a home with a fenced in porch, plenty of room for your pup to have some outside time. I can also crate them if needed. I’m flexible on whatever your needs should be!
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life. I’ve spent the last 15 years taking care of friends, neighbors and clients pets. The last 6 years I’ve rescued and been a foster mom for local dog rescue. Very comfortable working with dogs, seniors and puppies as they adjust to new people, surroundings and experiences. I’m currently working part time and home during the day so your loved ones getting plenty of attention! I can offer pick up/drop off for boarding if needed. I am mindful of your space and routine with your loved ones and will treat your home with respect. If boarding, I have dog friendly home with plenty of couches, pet beds and decks to lounge on. I have huge yard so can spend plenty of outdoor time if they want. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. I carefully follow each pet parent's instructions regarding feeding, walking routes, routines, and any special needs. Before every walk, I make sure the leash, collar, or harness is properly secured, and I remain alert to traffic, weather conditions, other animals, and anything that could make the pet uncomfortable. During drop-in visits, I respect the client's home and privacy. I make sure doors, gates, and crates are securely closed, and I never leave a pet outside unattended. I provide a calm, clean, and loving environment while giving each pet personalized attention. I will also send photos and detailed updates so pet parents know their pet is safe and well cared for. Requested information about your pet Before caring for your pet, I would like to learn about their personality, daily routine, energy level, and any special needs. Please let me know about any medical conditions, allergies, medications, fears, triggers, or behavioral
“Lisa is AMAZING! Bane and her clicked right off the bat. He enjoys his walks and the love she gives him while I am away at work. She is number one in my book and I couldn’t ask for a better person to watch my baby boy. I highly recommend her for any service you may need.”
About: I've watched pets of family and friends since I was a kid and always enjoyed it. I always make sure to spend plenty of time and give them as much attention as they want. For dogs, I did walks, gave bathroom breaks, play time, cleaned up accidents, and fed them. For cats I'll do the same, except walks. I am available everyday for the foresable future, on the bright side that leaves me with no commitments where I won't be able to watch your pets For my own cats, I fill the water and food bowls daily, as well as clean the litter boxes. Throughout the day I provide them with affection or a warm lap/bed. For dogs I will make sure they're completely safe outside and watch for any other dogs or cars. Inside I will do the same with my cats.

“Connie L. is absolutely amazing. She took such wonderful care of our girl. Sent us some great pictures. Shiloh was happy to me but didn’t want to come home because she enjoyed being at Connie’s so much! Thank You for everything!”
“I recently had the pleasure of using Christopher for 4.5 days, and I couldn’t be more impressed with the level of care and professionalism. From the moment I dropped Titus off, I felt at ease knowing he was in capable hands. Overall, I highly recommend Christopher to any pet owner looking for trustworthy, compassionate, and reliable dog care. We’re grateful for the wonderful care Titus received and will definitely book again.”
“My big furry baby Dream loves to stay with Megan. I feel at ease when we go away and she’s with Megan. I know she’s safe and cared for exceptionally. Side note: I love the photos that Megan sends me of Dream.”
“Wow! I cannot express how amazing Lorena and her family are. This was our first time leaving our two Shih Tzus overnight and we received regular text messages with pictures and updates, always very personable. Prior to their stay, we visited Lorena upon her request, to make sure the stay would be a good fit. This gave me peace of mind, knowing she has a screening process. I learned about Lorena from two of my neighbors who shared really positive feedback, so I went into this first stay confident. When picking up our Tzu's they were happy, healthy and obviously well loved. Many thanks to Lorena and her family for being a second family to our babies while we were away <3”
“We are so happy we found Laurie to take care of our 12 year old Aussie. After the initial meet and greet she was able to take him in for a few nights while we were on travel at the last minute. Laurie is super friendly and you can tell she really cares for the pets she’s watching. All of the other dogs that she watches were all really friendly as well and we are really grateful that’s he got a lot of playtime in her fenced in back yard. Laurie was also super communicative and sent multiple updates and pictures everyday which we really appreciated. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“Ligia, thank you so much for taking such great care of Cranberry. This was her first time away from home. You were so accommodating to her needs. Thank you for treating her like a princess.”
“Since our first use of Rover, this has been the best visit/offering of service thus far! Sonja &Phil maintained communication and provided photos throughout her entire stay, provided proper feeding (I always give a little extra and sitters would never have any to return), and she came back well and in good health (not the case on 2 occasions with another sitter). I appreciated that Roxy was still able to get outdoors in a enclosed area and I'm sure she did as well because she loves being outdoors. Highly recommend and I'll definitely be looking to use their services again!”
“Morgan was absolutely wonderful with Luna and Bella. He was so sweet and patient with them, made sure they were fed on time, and always gave them plenty of time outside to play in the yard. He really paid attention to the little details and even gave us helpful recommendations to improve how we care for the dogs, which we truly appreciated. He was always on time, very responsible, and super patient when loading them up. His communication was on point; he kept us updated every day without us even having to ask. We’re so thankful we found him and are already planning to book him again for future pet sitting. Highly recommend!”
“Tahliyah was Amazing! She was very accommodating, and very professional. When we picked up our dog she was freshly bathed, brushed, and sent home with a goodie bag. 10 out of 5 stars.”
“Tracey, is amazing with dogs and puts up with my active two year old Golden doodle. She is super flexible and is willing to work with you if you need to change your time for drop off or pick up. She is warm and loving and I know my dog is in good hands with her.”
“I can't express enough how grateful I am for the wonderful care River receives at his home away from home. From the very first visit, it was clear that River was going to be treated like family. Their warm and welcoming environment makes every stay a delight. They go above and beyond to ensure River feels comfortable and loved. Whether it's engaging him in playtime, providing treats, or simply showering him with affection, their dedication shines through. I love receiving updates and pictures, which reassure me that he’s having a fantastic time. Knowing that River is in such capable hands allows me to relax and enjoy my time away. I wholeheartedly recommend to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy home for their pets. Thank you for everything you do for River! 🐕 ♥️”
“Yoda spent 10 days with Seyla, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience! She had such a great time that I’m pretty sure she thought she was on vacation. 😂 Seyla is an excellent animal caretaker, and you can immediately tell how much he genuinely loves animals. All of the animals in his care are incredibly well looked after—plenty of walks, good food, lots of attention, playtime, and fun. Staying at Seyla’s house is basically like going to a doggie resort! The dogs get to play, run around, swim, and just have the best time. One of the things I appreciated most was how communicative Seyla was. He sent me multiple videos of Yoda every single day, so even though I was away for 10 days, I felt like Yoda never really left me. I could see how happy, comfortable, and well cared for she was throughout her entire stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. Seyla is also incredibly accommodating. My friend was supposed to pick Yoda up for me, but his flight was delayed by a day. I contacted Seyla, and he had no problem extending Yoda’s stay for an extra night. I would absolutely trust Seyla with Yoda again. Knowing that she is somewhere safe, loved, well cared for, and having the time of her life makes traveling so much easier. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone who will treat their dog like one of his own. Yoda will definitely be back! ❤️🐶”
“Our old pup absolutely loves staying with Julie’s family. She takes wonderful care of him, navigating his picky eating and various joint medications. He comes home so tired - from both the outdoor time and the social interactions, I am sure. I trust Julie completely with his care and will continue to use her for our dog sitting needs as long as she will have us.”
“This was my first time using this type of service to board my senior dog, and I must say that it was a blessing to find Sarah. She cared for Princess as if she was her own. Sarah provided me with status updates and went the extra mile. Will definitely use her services in the future. Thanks Sarah! You are the best!”
