“Cara was AMAZING!!!! She was wonderful with communication and was so great with everything all weekend! From helping dog sit last minute and through TERRIBLE weather - Cara was great through it all and I will definitely request to have her watch my pup again!!”



“Andrea was wonderful. Her easy going way and sensitivity to Pete, our nervous guy, was a perfect fit. Andrea kept us up to date on how things were going while we were away. When we arrived home, we saw that Pete was happy and relaxed. When Andrea departed, he followed her to the car, and then nugged her for a final goodbye -- and he is not an affection dog, but sure was with Andrea! We were so happy things worked out so well. Thank you Andrea.”


“Jordin stayed with my two dogs at my house for 8 days. She was great with communicating with me, as well as keeping me updated on my pups. She sent great pics, took them outside on a nice day and followed instructions. The house was in order and clean when I returned, but more importantly my dogs were happy and well cared for!”


“I couldn’t say enough good things about her! She has a very good friendly personality and is still professional. My dog loved her and it seems she took good care of him and he seemed happy. My house was very neat. I will definitely use her whenever I need a sitter.”


“Leigh, was wonderful! She took care of our too spoiled pups and our saltwater fishtank. She kept us updated throughout our trip with pictures! Would be happy to have her stay again!”

“Very reliable and I could sense Niqo loved having a sitter. I swear when i returned he acted a little full of himself🙄😁. She did a great job sent me updates and pics and was very obliging with my short notice change of plans. Will definitely recommend and use again!”


“Sheila was amazing! She sent lots of pictures of all my babies during her time with them. Our dogs have very different personalities and needs, and she was great with all of them.”


“Marissa is AMAZING!! She took wonderful care of our fur babies and sent pics and updates. I would 1000% recommend her!! Our babies were so relaxed and showed no signs of stress upon our return. Being able to vacation and know that your pets are happy and loved at home, is priceless!!”


“Trina did a fantastic job house sitting for us during a 9 day vacation. The animals and house looked great and I know Finn had a great time from the pics she sent and how tired he was when we returned. Trina went above and beyond to walk Finn at 5:30 in the morning so he wouldn't overheat during the extreme heat we were experiencing. I would recommend her and I will be calling her again for our next house sitting needs! Thanks, Trina!!”


“Abby was amazing! She provided so many updates and pictures. She is by far the best pet sitter I have had. Would definitely recommend her to anyone that wants someone who cares for your animals like they are her own!”

About: I’ve spent most of my life rescuing and transporting animals with mother via her company , especially cats and dogs, across America. From a young age, I’ve always had pets, and caring for them has been a central part of my life. My passion for animals is driven by my deep compassion and the desire to give every animal a better chance at life. Over the years, I’ve worked hard to transport animals to their forever homes, and I’ve always approached my work with kindness, patience, and a genuine love for all cpets . My caring nature and dedication to their well-being fuel everything I do in this mission. Hello I'm Abigail I currently work part time fluctuating hours , that's why I asked for 3 days in the advice but I am available most times I'm available in the morning , evening , and overnight and Im off weekends at this point. Having animals most of my life, I'm every comfortable cleaning up after both cats and dogs. Also I'm very comfortable giving oral medicine to both. I love taking walks with dogs, also, I plan on investing in a cat stroller to take your feline friends with us!

About: I have done checkins, dog sitting, and walks for my neighbors, families, and friends dogs. I have watched and worked with dogs of all sizes. I’ve spent afternoons caring for dogs. I’m adequate at cleaning up any messes dogs may make. I am good for afternoon to evening visits. I work until 4 pm on the week days. I’m free all day on my weekends of Saturday and Sunday. I’m very attentive to how dogs react to me. If they are on the timid side, I try to let them warm up to me. If they are on the playful more energetic side then I will be much more playful. I give the energy and attention to what the dog will need from me.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs as long as I can remember! From taking care of my elderly dog to welcoming home a brand new puppy, my love and affection for dogs ensures good quality care and extra attention for your fur babies. Outside of my weekend job, I’m totally free during the weekdays (unless of course I’m out of town!). I am good at balancing early mornings and late nights and providing my full attention and energy to your pet is my priority! From basic food, water, and play services to walks, hikes, and medical schedules, I offer a fun, energetic, yet reliable and easygoing experience for your pup!

About: I have enjoyed working in a pet store and running a mini farm! One of my most incredible experiences was taking care of my dog's puppies after she gave birth to twelve adorable little ones. I’ve loved caring for and learning about various animals along the way! I am a college student in need of a flexible schedule. I usually finish my classes by 11 a.m. I have a busy schedule but would love to spend time with cute animals. As a college student, I understand the importance of being responsible and trustworthy, especially when it comes to caring for your beloved pets. I am dedicated to providing attentive care in the comfort of your home, ensuring your animals feel safe and loved while you’re away. You can count on me to be respectful and maintain high standards of ethics in your space. Your pets deserve the best, and I’m here to offer that peace of mind.

About: I’ve owned animals my entire life. I’ve raised puppies, teaching basic skills and potty training. I am a true animal lover, prioritizing the happiness and health of my pets and caring deeply about all animals. You can trust that your pet will be top priority when in my care. I am available M-F after 5pm for 30+ minute walks and playtime. I am available Saturday and Sunday any time. Depending on your preference, I can walk near your house or I can take them on nature hikes, at local trails for a longer and more enriching experience. I am also available for overnight boarding any day of the week (including weekends). This can be either at your house or my own, depending on the situation. I am willing to discuss any requests. When boarding, I will be available to tend to the animal before and immediately after work and at least every 2-4 hours on the weekends. I will prioritize their needs 100% while they are in my care. I have a dog that is very easygoing and can keep your pet company. She prefers to nap but will share toys and would love a partner for walks. I also have the option to have relatives keep my pets while your pet is staying with me, if your pet prefers no other animals in the house. I also have a guest bedroom that (if necessary) allows me to separate the animals while I am away for safety reasons. I prioritize safety and will constantly monitor the animals, while allowing them freedom to roam and enjoy a comfortable environment. I am also available to stop by your house on a schedule to care for your pet if that is preferred. I am willing to discuss my staying at your residence as well. I am flexible and willing to work out the perfect situation for your specific needs.

About: I live in a home with three very affectionate dogs. I’ve experience with clingy, needy dogs from this. I also do well slowly gaining animal trust and reading body language. I’ve also a little experience volunteering at an old dog rehoming center. I work at an elementary school so I usually am not free until 5-6pm. However, my work leaves my evenings and often weekends pretty free. I try to fill the role of their owners to the best of my ability. I’ll try to keep the routine animals want to make them comfy. I also love dog cuddles but am usually gentle. I am pretty good at slowly working to gain trust and read their body language.

“Kate is an animal person through and through and loves nothing more than spoiling our dog. Over the years, she has dog or cat-sat for us as well as for friends and neighbors - always to rave reviews. She's dependable and caring (and yes I'm biased as her mom) but beyond that she truly enjoys spending time with animals and spoiling them with attention.”

“Raquel has a great love for all kinds of animals. She was responsible for the care of a minature horse, goats, birds, fish, cats, small dogs, large dogs, and eleven newborn puppies. She worked at a pet store that sold dogs, small animals, reptiles and fish. She is very knowledgeable about how to care for all sorts of animals. Raquel has successfully done in home pet sitting. She is a very honest, trustworthy, caring and responsible person. I highly recommend her to care for any and all of your animals.”
