“This is the second time I have used Rebeccah for our dogs and I could not be happier. Both my dogs and cat seem to really like her! She has proven to be very responsible and is very easy to get a hold of- which is great when I am out of town, I know that they are in good hands.”

About: I'm a lifelong pet owner with plenty of experience caring for different species of all ages. I'm super comfortable adapting to whatever specific care an animal needs. I am a college student with part-time jobs, which means my schedule is pretty flexible so I can easily adapt my hours to fit any routine and care needs I have two very friendly dogs and one social cat at my own home, so your pet will be in great company. If I'm caring for them at your home, I will follow all given instructions and spend quality time socializing with your pets.
“Thanks so much for taking great care of them. It looks like Jasmine was more comfortable this time. She must have remembered you. And Leo got his exercise time with the laser light. Thanks again! I am going to book for next month now we made our plans 😊”

About: I am a veterinary assistant and I am currently trying to get into veterinary school. I have the knowledge and experience to keep your pet safe and take action should any issues arise! I currently work full-time Monday through Thursday as a veterinary assistant. I can stop by during my lunch break and after work as needed, and I am available all day Friday-Sunday! I'm happy to accommodate any request that you might have for your pet, as I know that each one is unique and special in their own way! Personally, my dog has bad allergies, and I know how important it is for him not to deviate from his diet.
About: I have taken care of dogs pretty much all of my life. I will give your Pups real one on one care, affection and presence. I am responsive, consistent and someone you can count on in a pinch. I am patient and calm. I will also be able to give you updates. I am retired, so my daily routine will be based around your needs or wants for your pup. I am not juggling a job anymore, so I am open for bookings to help give your dog structure and companionship I do not have the capability, at my home, of having pets at my home due to not having a fenced in yard for their protection.
“Julie was fantastic! She clicked with my dog, June, from the get go. While we were away, Julie responded very quickly to any questions, provided updates, and was flexible when our plans changed. I would 100% recommended her!”


“Finding Nancy has been such a blessing. Words I would use to describe her are: professional, prompt, honest, thorough, caring, and compassionate. I have used her services twice now, and feel at ease knowing she is taking care of my babies. I received daily pictures and notifications from her, and anytime I contacted her she was quick to respond, day or night. She is a keeper in my book and if you are in need of pet care, I give her 5 stars ⭐️”

“Meredith is absolutely the best she was so amazing taking care of our doggos! Even the little messes they made she did an amazing job taking care of them and even doing extra to clean up for us! I will recommend her to everyone!”

“Leanne was great with our 2 cats. I was able to text her while I was away, & that allowed me to enjoy my trip more because I knew the cats were being taken care of. The cats really loved her; our shy one came right up to her! She even gave them treats & brought in our mail. Great job!!”

About: I’m very organized, communicative, and attentive to routines, whether your pet needs walks, playtime, medications, cuddles, or just someone calm and patient around them. I’ll always send updates and photos so you can feel relaxed while you’re away. I know every pet is different, and I’m happy to adjust to their needs and personality. I currently work a full-time job that allows me to come and go as I please. I am available for stop ins/bathroom breaks and dog walks.

About: Ensure your pet feels safe and loved even when you're not home. My dedicated pet sitting services allow your furry friend to stay in the comfort of their own space. From regular dog walking to attentive care for your pets, I cater to their needs while you're out of town or just away for the day. With a focus on individual attention and affection, your pets will enjoy a stress-free experience. Book with me and give your pets the care they desereve! Pet care fits naturally into my routine, allowing me to give my full attention to each animal I look after. I visit clients’ pets before I start my work day and return directly afterward to ensure they stay on their regular schedule. On weekends — and on weekdays when I have extra time — I go beyond the basics by adding extra playtime, enrichment activities, or simply quality companionship for pets who value one-on-one attention. Whether they’re energetic explorers or calm cuddlers, I make sure each pet feels supported, stimulated, and loved every day their family is away. When caring for pets in their home, I make sure their routines and comfort come first. I provide fresh food and clean water, ensure they have proper potty breaks, and clean up any soiled areas to keep their space tidy and stress-free. Each visit includes 30 minutes to an hour of engagement — whether that’s active play, enrichment activities, or simply relaxed cuddle time depending on what the pet enjoys most. I also handle medication when needed, maintain clean litter boxes, and pay close attention to their overall well-being. My goal is to make every pet feel secure, comfortable, and loved while their family is away.

About: Hi, I'm Makenzie! Since I turned 18 I’ve worked as a Veterinary Technician, a kennel tech, at daycare/boarding facilities and I have pet sit for dozens of people throughout my life. That being said, I have experience with all different kinds of dogs and cats! From the smallest Chihuahuas to giant breeds, like Mastiffs. I've worked with the deaf, the blind and the sickly. I'm not excluding cats in any way, I've had my Calico since she was just a few weeks old and she’s my heart and soul! Animals are my passion and I'd love to be a part of your fur babies life! I’m currently not working a traditional job, so I have all day Monday-Friday to take care of your pets! Weekend availability is currently as needed. I care for your animals as if they were my own, making sure safety is my number one priority! As I do not offer in home services at my residence, I’ll see to it that your animals are safe, happy and healthy in their home and whenever we are exploring outside of it.
