I have never left our dogs with anyone but family and due to health issues we had to change our plans. I never expected to come home to the happiest dogs ever!!!! Kayla sent pictures all the time with updates and because we were on a cruise our WiFi was not good but she had known that and still sent pics so when we did get WiFi it made us so happy to see them!!! We absolutely will use her again for future trips!!!!

Sharon was an outstanding pet sitter. We felt at ease and she was great about giving us updates. It was wonderful to be able to relax and not worry. In addition, she stayed at our home and everything was immaculate. With two cats and an elderly dog to care for, this was not an easy task. We highly recommend her to others.

Libah was incredible with our 2 golden doodles! I have always been anxious leaving my babies when we go out of town but I didn't feel that way at all with Libah. She sent me regular updates and pictures and took care of them like they were her babies. Finding a sitter we trust has been so difficult and we are so relieved to have found Libah!! Would 100% recommend her to anyone needing a sitter!

Karen did an amazing job at our home with our 3 cats during a 17 day vacation. She came to meet our pets before we left and they were comfortable with her immediately. When we returned home, the house was clean and pets were happy and healthy, and they were brushed (3 long hair cats). One cat needed medicine twice daily which was no problem for Karen. She sent photos or videos every day to let us see how they were doing and they seemed relaxed and playful with her. We enjoyed our time away and weren't concerned about our home or pets because we knew they were in good hands. We feel that Karen is conscientious and trustworthy, and she is a true animal lover. We were lucky to find such a great pet sitter, and will definitely ask her to stay with our pets in the future. :)

It was such a relief to find someone who is minutes from our house, who is caring, honest and trustworthy. Being very particular, I only wanted my precious Pierre to be in the care of one woman to care for him. Bittersweet, it took several sitters to find the perfect person... Carrie, you are so amazing. What a relief to find you and we do not want to lose you either! While we were out of town, our last trip, the previous sitter did not stay with our precious Pierre as we paid her to do so. It certainly pays to purchase a Canary camera and to also listen to your neighbors! Carrie, it was a blessing that you were available to get him at last minute and give him the attention he needed. Our week away in July was relieving and relaxing knowing that our Pierre was in your care. Thank you, thank you, thank you for helping us at last minute and being there for our sweet little four legged boy. He was so relaxed and calm when we arrived home. This validated how comfortable and happy he was in your care. Muah!!

Tatianna took wonderful care of my dog while I was out for the evening. She arrived on time, then walked him on one of the coldest nights of the year, gave him treats, and paid lots of attention to him. I will not hesitate to have Tatianna come back again.

About: I’ve had pets since I was a young girl. There was always a dog and cats in the house, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I recently lost my dog to old age, and I really miss that daily companionship, which is why I’d love to help care for other people’s pets. I’ve pet sat for friends, family, and neighbors over the years, and now I’m ready to open that up to more families. I’m comfortable with both dogs and cats, and I have two cats of my own. I’m patient, attentive, and I treat every pet like they’re my own—making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m reliable and easy to communicate with, and I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. I’m home most of the day, so I have a flexible schedule and can give your pet plenty of attention and care. I do have two kids, so with a little advance notice I’m happy to plan ahead and make sure I’m fully available for your pet’s needs. I’m an active person and enjoy going on walks, so dogs will get plenty of movement and time outside. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, and sitting during the week and weekends, and I can adjust to your pet’s routine to keep things consistent and stress-free. I have a fenced backyard, and pets are always supervised when they’re outside. Most of the day they’ll be with me, so they’re not left alone for long. I handle all feeding, walks, and care myself to keep things consistent and done right. I have two cats that are indoor and outdoor. They’re friendly and used to being around other animals, but they mostly keep to themselves and won’t bother your pet. My home is calm, clean, and safe. My kids are gentle and love animals, and I always make sure interactions are respectful and supervised. I treat every pet like my own and do my best to make them feel comfortable and at home while you’re away.

About: I have loved animals my entire life and grew up on a farm caring for animals of all sizes, from rabbits to horses. Through the years I have gained experience caring for a variety of pets and understand that every animal has its own personality, needs, and routine. I currently have three dogs of my own, and they are a huge part of my life. I also regularly care for neighbors’ pets while they are at work, running errands, or out of town. Whether your pet needs walks, feeding, playtime, companionship, or extra attention, I am committed to providing loving and dependable care. I work as a per diem Occupational Therapy Assistant, which allows me to maintain a flexible schedule. This flexibility gives me the opportunity to accommodate your pet’s needs and routine as closely as possible. Weekend availability is typically open as well. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I will carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise routines, and any special requests you may have. I am also happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is receiving excellent care while you are away. I look forward to meeting you and your pet and caring for them as if they were part of my own family. I currently work per diem as an occupational therapy assistant. My schedule is very flexible to be able to care for your fur babies on your time frame. The weekends I typically have open availability. I live in a single family home with a large fenced in yard. I have three dogs that love to run and play! We have a dog park 5 minutes from our home that we enjoy going to. I have two children that love playing tug of war and fetch with the dogs! My husband also enjoys cuddling the fur babies just as much as I do if not more!

Thomas did a wonderful job with our lab. We felt she was in good hands and he stayed overnight with Willow and worked from our home during day so she had him to keep her company. We were very happy that Thomas did a meet and greet and took the time to get to know Willow. We will keep Thomas on our list to contact for future dog sitting needs.

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with real hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. At one point, I had four cats and one dog at home, so I’m no stranger to multi-pet households or complex routines! My sweet special-needs cat, Tiny, required twice-daily medication, probiotics, and a special IBD-friendly diet, so I’m confident with senior and medical care. And my beloved corgi Beans, who recently passed, gave me 12.5 beautiful years of experience with senior dogs, mobility issues, and lots of corgi cuddles. 🐾 Right now, my world revolves around my two cats, Chester (a goofy dog-like boy) and Domino (a king with firm boundaries—unless he’s feeling snuggly 😽). They’re both featured in my profile pics because I genuinely adore them and treat them like royalty. Outside of pet care, I work in an elementary school as a first grade teacher! I’ve been a vegetarian for 20+ years because I truly love and respect all animals, and I’m currently looking to spend more time around pets while I’m not teaching during the day. Whether your pet is shy, energetic, quirky, or needs special care, I’ll treat them like family—because that’s what they are. 💕🐶🐱 During the school year I am available after 4:00pm on weekdays and anytime during the weekends! I am available whenever during the summer ! I am happy to drop-in during these hours! When I’m doing drop-in visits, my #1 priority is making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable in their own home. I always follow your care instructions to the letter—whether that’s meal portions, meds, favorite toys, or specific potty routines. I believe pets thrive when their normal routines are respected, so I do my best to keep everything familiar and stress-free. I treat each home with the same respect and care I’d want someone to show in mine. I’m mindful about security—making sure doors are locked, alarms are set (if needed), and pets are safely inside before I leave. I also love sending updates and cute photos, so you know your pet is happy and in good hands while you’re away! I know it takes a lot of trust to invite someone into your home to care for your pet, and I don’t take that lightly. Your pet is part of your family—and during our visits, they’re part of mine too. 💕🐾

We couldn’t be more grateful to have found Naomi! She took incredible care of our French and English bulldog, giving them so much love, attention, and cuddles while we were away. It’s clear our pups felt totally comfortable and safe—like they were right at home. From the updates and photos to the thoughtful care, Naomi went above and beyond. You can tell they genuinely love animals and treat them like family. Knowing our dogs were in such good hands gave us total peace of mind. We would absolutely love to have her watch our dogs again—our pups already miss them! Highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and truly attentive sitter.
