“Sandy is wonderful! She is kind, calm, compassionate and is pet-centered in her care, prioritizing the needs of the pets in the absence of their owners. She is sensitive to pet personalities and special needs, while adhering to their normal routines as much as possible. We appreciate the time Sandy spent getting to know our pets prior to the care assignment. We also appreciate Sandy’s willingness to take on a couple extra big asks. It gave us great piece of mind knowing our home and pets were in great hands! Our place was more tidy than the way we left it and Sandy laundered the linens before she left. I highly recommend her! 5-Star care!”
“Stephanie treated our pups like they were her own. She was kind, communicative, and flexible. She even vacuumed up the dog hair before she left! We are so grateful to have found her and would scream all the recommendations from the rooftops for her!”
About: I’ve taken care of all animals, big and small. I grew up with dogs and cats, and have barely had any time without one of the two. I grew up on a small farm and I’ve cared for a wide variety of animals. I work 5 hours a day and the rest I’ll be able to take care of your furry babies. I love spending time with animals, and it’s the best part of my day! I love playing with pets and providing them with some much needed cuddle time. I try and keep to their specific feeding schedules and potty schedules. They’ll be well taken care of!
“Erran was the best pet sitter we have ever had. She was extremely respectful, clean, and professional. Our little dog loved having her stay at our house. We will use her again 100%.”
About: Our pets are family and deserve the best care possible. I am animal lover of all sorts! I’ve taken care of a variety of different breeds and sizes. Thank you for checking out my profile! I am currently a CNA and a caretaker during the week and free on weekends. I am available for drop in visits or overnight stays over the weekend. I am also available during the week but my schedule is a little unpredictable. Typically I will establish a schedule with the owners and the pets. I prefer the owner to leave a written list of introductions for the pets.
“Sarah was absolutely amazing! She house sat for our boy, communicated everything to us and sent us tons of pictures. Our dog even jumped in her car and refused to get out after we got back 😂 we will 100% hire Sarah again ❤️”
“Julia did a great job keeping our dog while we were away on vacation. The only downside I saw was that our dog was less excited to see us when we got home because I think she missed Julia! Hope to get to use her again in the future.”
“Amazing experience with Vicki!! Her communication was great, she was patient & sweet with my 3 crazy dogs, and left our house cleaner than we left it. Thank you ? would definitely recommend!”
About: I have raised many dogs and been around pets my whole life! I have always had a love for animals, especially dogs! I’ve trained and took care of all the dogs in my family growing up! I manage my own business and choose my own hours to take care of my dogs at home! So I’m very flexible with times to schedule your pets needs as well! Please schedule a meet and greet! I’m available to come to your home and build that trust. Show me the routines so that I can adapt to all the meal times, play times, walk times, potty breaks, etc. I also have 2 other dogs at home that would love to play and love on your dog(s) as well! I also live right down the road from the dog park! I’m also available for watching your pet at your home, whatever is the most comfortable for you and them.
“Naya was amazing with our 2 pugs! I was so nervous to leave them with anyone as we are not from the area and she always kept us updated and was super flexible and responsive. She took amazing care of our pups and treated them as her own. Cannot say enough great things and would absolutely use her again if we ever need a sitter in the area again!!”
About: I’ve had the pleasure of working with over 60 dogs, including training 13 energetic puppies! My experience ranges from basic obedience to daily care routines, and I’ve loved every moment of it. I care deeply for dogs, cats, and animals of all kinds, and would be honored to watch over your furry friend. Whether it’s a playful pup, a snuggly senior, or a curious kitty, I’m here to provide them with love, attention, and plenty of tail wags while you’re away! I currently work part-time with a very flexible schedule, which allows me to be available whenever needed. This makes it easy for me to prioritize pet care and provide the attention your pet deserves. I’m also hoping/open to building lasting relationships with regular clients, so we can work together to find a schedule that works perfectly for you and your furry friend. I have a fenced-in yard, giving your pet a safe space to play and relax outdoors. I’m also just a short walk from the local dog park, perfect for pets who love extra playtime and socializing. Whether your pet prefers cozy naps, outdoor adventures, or lots of belly rubs, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and right at home.
“Mckensey is amazing and her dog Clementine is adorable. She took excellent care of my dogs and gave many updates. I felt that my dogs were very comfortable and well entertained with walks and attention. Also my apartment was probably cleaner than I left it. I would recommend Mckensey to anyone!”
About: I spent four years caring for a geriatric Pomeranian, gaining valuable experience in tending to elderly and sick dogs. After his passing, I adopted a Rottweiler, who is now approaching two years old. With over a decade of pet sitting experience, I specialize in handling larger dogs and more aggressive or reactive breeds. My background also includes part-time work as a dog trainer, driven by a deep passion for animals of all kinds. I work fully remote in the medical staffing industry, and that allows me to have very flexible availability to accommodate your pets needs. I am available 7 days per week, most weeks. I have a large crate in my condo, but I don't have a backyard. My 110-pound Rottweiler gets plenty of exercise with frequent walks, and I take him to a huge, fenced-in field across the street where he can play fetch and run around.
About: I have professional experience dog sitting and walking and treat each animal as if they were my own. I've experienced a large variety of breeds, ages, and sizes. I pay attention to details and send a text report after every visit, including adorable pictures. I am very aware of my surroundings and do everything I can to ensure a safe and enjoyable walk. If you have a feline friend in addition to your canine I take care of their food, water, and cat box as needed. I make sure your pet has fresh water and food or medicine if necessary, as well as change pee pads. I give small treats when appropriate as well. I supply my own treats and poop bags but also respect requests for no treats. :)
About: I’ve grown up with large breed dogs my entire life! I’ve also been helping my mom dog sit since I was in elementary school and some of the kids I nannied in high school had a family dog I’d have to watch as well! I currently don’t work and only plan on bartending part time this summer so my schedule is super open. Also have been looking for more excuses to be more active and outside so I figured what better way than to hang out with some pups. I’ve had dogs of my own so I know how important rules and cues are. I have a dog in my home but I would only bring your dog here if he wasn’t around. His name is cheese, he’s chill but on the anxious side so I wouldn’t want to risk anything. My backyard is fenced! I would also strictly follow whatever rules and notes you leave behind for me about your dogs specific care.

“Joanna has been my wonderful house sitter and animal care person for several years now. She has come to my rescue on my farm while I have had extensive hospitalizations and now finally while I go for a week’s vacation. I trust her 100% with my home and animals. She knows I love my animals like they are my children. When she comes to my farm she cares for 24 sheep, two dogs, one indoor kitty, six outdoor barn kitties, chickens, and a 45 year old African Grey parrot!! And she does a fantastic job. She is very trustworthy, kind, and compassionate with my animals. I recommend her!!!!”

She responded immediately and was able to help out on short notice, which was a huge relief. Jax took to her right away, and it was clear she has a natural way with dogs. She followed all of his care instructions closely and made sure he got daily walks. I could tell he was happy, relaxed, and well cared for when I got back. I’ll definitely be booking with Dylan again in the future!”
