“We appreciate Abbey so much! She’s made being away from home so much easier, we know our kitties are in great hands. I would not hesitate to recommend her as she has proven herself to be a 10/10 per friend! She has even made friends with our notoriously shy Maine coon ♥️”
“Alisha did an excellent job watching my cat this past weekend! She was communicative and went out of her way to make sure that my cat got attention and the food she needed. I could tell from the photos that my cat was so happy with the visits. Thank you so much Alisha!”
About: Hi! I’ve been pet sitting and had my own dog for many years. Now, I have experience from drop-in visits to extended overnight stays, with many different types of needs. I’m dedicated to caring for a pet the same way their owner would and look forward to spending time with animals. I work from home most days and can accommodate a flexible potty schedule and activity level. I enjoy taking breaks to spend with pets, to get outside or tuck in on the sofa! I have an enclosed garden and large, unfenced yard. We are well back from the main road so pets are welcome to explore the neighborhood.
“Kadyona was dependable and easy to communicate with. She took care of my two cats over five visits. My cats enjoyed having someone to spend time with them and give attention and playtime.”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on experience, reliability, and genuine love for animals. I’ve cared for both energetic puppies and older pets who need a slower pace and extra patience. I’m great at picking up on individual needs—whether that’s sticking to a strict feeding schedule, handling clean-up routines, or giving pets the one-on-one attention they deserve. I am free most weekdays after 3pm and open on weekends. I can guarantee you my undivided attention to your pets. I will make sure they are taken care of wonderfully. In my home, pets enjoy a safe, clean, and calm space with plenty of love and attention. I follow their routines carefully to keep things familiar and stress-free. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect the space, follow all instructions, and ensure their pet feels secure and cared for. Clear communication and gentle, attentive care help build trust every step of the way.
“Stephanie did a marvelous job taking care of my very senior (19 yo) cat in my home while I was gone. She came twice a day to feed her, clean up, give medication, brush, pet and hug her. She texted me pictures and updates at every visit. Peaches looked better when I got back than she did when I left! I highly recommend Stephanie as a very dependable and caring petsitter.”
About: Having 21 years of personal pet care experience, both on and off of a farm, I have general knowledge of dog obedience training, socialization training and general grooming of both dogs and cats. I am always willing to learn new things, especially for the sake of the animals that I am responsible for, as well as encourage them to have fun, feel loved and know that they are always in the best care! I have high standards for myself in this regard, so you can always expect that your pet will be in the best hands. Not only that, but you can also count on my loving your furry friend as my very own. I work full time, Monday - Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM; I take hour long lunch breaks, traveling home to care for my pup and taking care of business in between. Weekends are open, within reason, and I am willing to modify my schedule for the right person and pet. I will follow clients’ specific guidelines on how to care for their pet(s), observing and reporting anything and everything that occurs during each visit. Routine and consistency is everything, and I will follow these to a “T”!
About: I have always grown up with multiple dogs and cats and have experience caring for both of all ages. I love a good walk, especially when it’s with a furry friend! I know how important it is that you are confident your little guys are taken care of while you are away and I am here to help! I am here to make sure your fur babies are happy, having fun and relaxed while you aren’t home. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to be available for both weekday walks and drop-ins, as well as weekend care, perfect for any and all of your pet care needs! I will respect your home whenever I am there, and make sure all is safe and tidy for your pets- making sure to check for any accidents or mischief your pets may have gotten into. I will be sure to make sure they have adequate food, water, and address any hygiene needs they have. I will be sure to send lots of photos of your pets each visit!
About: I grew up with pets and have always felt that they complete a home! I’m here to help care for your pets so you can travel worry-free. I work full time but can be remote or take breaks midday to check on pets. I don’t have children so there is a lot of flexibility in my evenings as well! I can provide overnight stays for up to seven nights consecutively. I have done housesitting occasionally for years and have no problem helping your pets adjust to your absence.
About: Animals are children to me. Grew up with many dogs/cats & birds! Offer great at home visits to exercise, play & feed your pets! Strong, driven individual that can handle multiple large dogs at a time. Also have trained many puppies through my youth and adult life, so can handle the little ones too! Respectful to clients and pets alike, understanding the value and security of your home and neighborhood. Will always walk dogs until they poop and pee; will pet and play with them during walks and visits. Please do not hesitate to ask questions or request supplemental services. You will not regret picking me as your animals caretaker!! I am working part time with a flexible schedule, so boarding your dog takes priority. I wake up early each morning and retire around 9p I have many trails in the back of our property, with hills and fields to run in. Dogs are given all the love I can muster in the home and out on walks or hikes! Very safe environment for your dog
About: I have years of experience caring for dogs and enjoy figuring out how each dog thinks, why they do what they do, and what they need to be happy! I've boarded single dogs, and I've done overnight stays in-house with 18 dogs at once! I also have experience with all types of medicine administration. Sadly at this time I can only watch female dogs! I have an allergy to the dog allergen Can F 5 which is only found in male dogs. Hope to start allergy shots soon! I'm also a fan of training for those who are trying to train their pups, or don't mind me doing so. Our corgi now knows the following commands: Clean up your toys (she puts them into her toy box), Wipe your paws, Speak, Go to bed, Do yoga (stretch), Spin, Belly (roll over), Snout (put your collar on), Down, Stay, and more! I am completely available for your dog- I work from home as a writer and have very few meetings or obligations throughout the day, which means I get to spend all day with my own Corgi and your dog will be well-cared for! I have a fenced yard, a great neighborhood for twice daily walks, and a very large crate for sleeping if they prefer crate sleeping. We have one spayed 1-year-old dog and one 12 year old male cat who ignores dogs unless he's cuddling with ours.
“Bella and Cameron are such diligent and responsible cat sitters! They sent very cute updates and photos while we were out of town, about all the activities they were doing with our cat. We will definitely be booking with them again!”
“Alexandra was terrific! We were so happy she was able to take care of our poochies for us while we were out of town, and we were especially delighted that she bonded with our older dog, who is not fond of many people. We really appreciated her reassuring communications. Five stars!”
“Liilian really went above and beyond to make sure that our cats were cared for, played with, and safe while we were away and we're so thankful for that peace of mind knowing that they were in such good hands. Thank you!!”
About: I love animals of all shapes and sizes and am looking forward to meeting your pets! I have experience with large and small dogs, puppies, cats, and small animals. I am quite active and happy to take your dog on an adventure. I am currently available on Fridays for walks and check-ins throughout the day. I am not currently available for pet sitting but I hopefully will be in the near future. When I am with my dog Rossi we walk on-leash when we’re on the road or in busy areas and off-leash when we’re in safe areas. I like to bring treats as a reward for good behavior, especially because she is still a puppy.

Carlyan V.
“I had the pleasure of having Carlyan care for my cat, Toby, while I was away, and I couldn’t be more grateful for her help. Toby can be a bit shy and particular, but Carlyan was incredibly gentle and caring with him from the start. She took the time to make sure he felt safe, comfortable, and loved, and I could tell he was in good hands throughout the entire time I was gone. Carlyan communicated with me regularly, kept me updated, and followed all of Toby’s care instructions perfectly. Her calm and attentive nature made all the difference. I would confidently recommend her pet sitting services to anyone looking for a responsible, kind, and reliable caregiver. I’ll absolutely be calling on her again! – Jess R.”

Kaitlin D.Star Sitter
“I love when Kait watches my cats! As a wonderful cat mom herself, she knows it’s great to receive frequent updates and pictures so I can feel sure that my kittens are happy when I can’t be there. There’s no one else I’d rather have pet sit.”
Danielle S.
“The Venn diagram of Dani’s level of responsibility/reliability compared to her love of animals is a circle. You want your pet to be cared for with the same attention to detail and thoroughness as Leslie Knope? Dani is your person. You want your pet to be safe protected at all costs with the fierceness of a secret service agent? Dani is your person. You want your pet to be doted on with the love and adoration of a very present grandparent? Dani is your person. You cannot go wrong here folks. Unrelated to animals but a Testament to her skills and personality: Dani is always my first answer for “who would you want on your zombie apocalypse team”… she’s level headed, common sense, dependable, resilient, medical knowledge, ecological knowledge, a great leader etc etc. If she could confidently take on the zombie apocalypse, this position will literally be a walk in the park. (In terms of actual reference, i have a dog and cat that she has cared for for me for almost a decade) Take my word for it, your pet will be in GREAT hands!”
Andrew C.
“Andrew is the best with my dog Arra! She's always excited when he comes by, especially because he brings her favorite treat: carrots! Andrew has been really accommodating with helping walk Arra - which has been great due to my insane workload. Highly recommend Andrew for any and all your dog walking needs!”
Abigail C.
“Abigail was wonderful! Very responsive and prompt. Abigail clearly LOVES animals and is committed to providing excellent care.”
