About: I’ve had animals my whole life! I’ve grown up with cats, dogs, guinea pigs, hamsters, and even a pet rat! I love animals and want to spend time with them as much as possible! I believe animals are definitely humans best friend and should be treated accordingly! My experience over the years has taught me how to care for and respect an animal. I also have experience with giving oral medication and providing updates to owners about how their pets are doing while in my care. Pet care is something I’m passionate about because animals give me so much joy and unconditional love! Pet care fits into my open schedule to be able to enjoy taking care of others pets! Caring for someone’s animal is like having another one myself. I do like detailed information about the animal’s likes and dislikes. I also want to make sure that the animal is comfortable with me and that the owner feels good about leaving them in my capable hands!

“Autumn is the best dog sitter! She is so good dealing with high energy dogs who have no concept of personal space, our dogs are always happy after a visit with her! She is great with updates, providing pictures and making us feel very secure as dog owners. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Ariana was fantastic. Great communicator. Sent multiple updates which I appreciated so much. She did so well with my grumpy pug. I will rebook for future trips!”

Christine W.

“Sarah was fantastic and I will absolutely request her services again! I was nervous to leave about leaving my dogs for the first time; they are both rescue dogs with separation anxiety and used to a very consistent routine. She took the time to come meet them ahead of time and go over their needs with me. She was very communicative, sent multiple check-ins and photos, and was quick to clarify details if she was unsure about something. They both took to her right away. She was the perfect fill in for "mom" while I was away. Thank you so much! We will definitely reach out again in the future!”

About: I connect with pets in a playful way so they have a fun and enjoyable experience, feel less lonely, and are excited and engaged during their day. I am retired and play pickleball regularly, which leaves me with plenty of time throughout the day to care for your pet while you’re away. I will visit your pet in your home, feed and play with them, give them their meds and keep them company. I will walk your dog so they can explore and engage in their surroundings.

About: I have two boys of my own, and I’ve had both of them since they were puppies. My youngest is 7 and my oldest is 13, so I have over a decade of hands-on experience caring for dogs through different stages of their lives. I potty trained both of them and learned how important patience, consistency, and understanding are when raising a dog. What makes my experience unique is that I’ve learned to understand dogs beyond just their basic needs. Every dog has a different personality and their own way of communicating, and I take the time to understand what makes each one comfortable, happy, and feel cared for. I know dogs are an important part of your family, just like mine are to me. So allow me to be of service and help you and your family whenever you need it. I’ll treat your dog with the same love, patience, attention, and care that I give my own. My part-time job gives me a pretty flexible schedule, so I’m available for mornings, afternoons, and even evenings. I can work around your schedule and do my best to be there whenever you and your pup need me! In my household, pets are forever the babies of the family, no matter how old they are, how slowly they walk, or how big they may be. I care for every pet in a safe, comfortable, and loving environment, whether they’re in my home or yours. I follow your pet’s usual routine, provide plenty of attention and playtime, and make sure they have fresh water, regular meals, and a clean space. I’m happy to follow any special instructions or care needs so your pet feels relaxed and well cared for while you’re away.

“Jessica is our go to sitter and walker. She takes loving care of our boy Ziggy, and he absolutely loves the care and attention he gets from Jessica. Jessica will go the extra mile.”

“Brian and Katherine are both fantastic! My dogs love seeing them and I feel confident in their abilities to look after them well. They are great with communication and super reliable. I wouldn't hesitate to use them for a second.”

“We appreciate Annette SO much! It's wonderful to have her consistent communication and knowing that our dogs don't have to learn someone new whenever we travel. She leaves our house clean and tidy too!!”

About: I have taken care of pets my entire life, which has given me a deep, lifelong understanding of animal behavior and needs. My experience goes far beyond standard pet sitting; I am the proud parent of a special needs, insulin-dependent fur baby. Because of this, I am completely comfortable and experienced with administering medications, maintaining strict schedules, and monitoring vital health cues. I know how stressful it can be to leave a pet behind—especially one with medical needs—and I promise to bring that exact same level of devotion, vigilance, and love to your home. I look forward to meeting you and taking care of your fur baby like, they are one of my own! I have taken care of pets my entire life, which has given me a deep, lifelong understanding of animal behavior and needs. My experience goes far beyond standard pet sitting; I am the proud parent of a special needs, insulin-dependent fur baby. Because of this, I am completely comfortable and experienced with administering medications, maintaining strict schedules, and monitoring vital health cues. Because I work from home, pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine, allowing me to offer unmatched attentiveness and flexible scheduling throughout the day. Being steps away at all times means I am always available to maintain strict medication timelines, monitor health cues, and provide companionship whenever it's needed. I know how stressful it can be to leave a pet behind—especially one with medical needs—and I promise to bring that exact same level of devotion, vigilance, and love to your home. I look forward to meeting you and taking care of your fur baby like, they are one of my own! When caring for your pets in their own home, my absolute priority is maintaining their familiar routine, comfort, and security while ensuring they remain safely inside. Because my own fur babies are inside-only apartment pets, I am naturally vigilant about home safety, secure entryways, and preventing any accidental escapes. I focus on replicating their exact daily schedules, from precise feeding and medication times to their preferred play and rest windows. By providing dedicated, one-on-one attention in the environment where they feel most confident, I ensure they receive both the physical care and the comforting companionship they need to feel completely relaxed and happy while you are away.

“We are so happy with the loving care ty got. We booked last minute and they were so accommodating and great with the cat and provided updates and photos to make us feel at ease”

“Lani took excellent care of my high energy Lab while I was out of town for the weekend. This was my dog’s first time with a sitter, and I was very nervous because my dog is highly active, needy, sometimes anxious, very bonded to me, and used to me being with me all the time. Lani was able to meet all of her needs and make her feel comfortable while I was away. She is punctual, reliable, trustworthy, and sent regular updates and photos. I’m so thankful!”

Jessica C.

“Dawn was an absolute superstar!! Our dog is wary of strangers in the house, but Dawn was patient with her, and the two of them became best friends in no time. Dawn sent us daily pictures and updates during our trip, and was very responsive when we had questions. She was communicative and so sweet with our pup. And to top it off, when our flight home was delayed into the early hours of the morning, Dawn stayed an additional night. Knowing that our puppy was in Dawn's capable hands made our whole trip so much more relaxing and enjoyable. Will absolutely be booking Dawn again!”
