“Sarah was a great sitter! The dogs were happy and she kept everything neat around the house. She understood when our flight was delayed due to storms. Will definitely recommend.”


About: Hey there! I’m Haley. If you’re anything like me, your pets are family. 🩷🩷 I’m confident with pets of all ages, sizes, temperaments, and medical needs. Whether your pet needs medications at specific times, your cat is skittish around new people, or your senior pup needs a little extra TLC — I’ve got it handled with patience, experience, and a whole lot of heart. I genuinely pay attention to the little things — their habits, moods, body language, what makes them feel at ease — and I always aim to make their time with me feel like a safe, happy extension of home. I’m especially tuned in to pets with anxiety or special needs. I know how hard it can be to leave your fur baby behind, and I do everything I can to make that process feel smooth and comforting for both of you. Expect open communication, photo updates, and lots of love given in your absence. I’m not just a sitter — I’m a calm presence, a routine-keeper, a play buddy, and most importantly, someone who genuinely loves animals. I treat every pet like they’re my own. If that sounds like what you’ve been looking for, I’d love to meet you (and your four-legged bestie)!🩷 Pet care is part of my everyday life—I build my schedule around your pet’s needs. Whether it’s morning feedings, mid-day walks, or evening check-ins, I make sure your pet’s routine stays consistent and stress-free. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, which makes me available for frequent visits and extended stays if needed. Your pet’s safety is my top priority. In your home, I keep their space clean, secure, and familiar. I follow all your routines and instructions closely—whether it’s crate time, diet, or meds. In my home, I maintain a quiet space with plenty of supervision. I communicate with pet parents frequently, with photos and updates for peace of mind.

About: I have taken care of animals of every shape and size since I was little. Growing up around dogs, cats, chickens, horses, and many others has given me great experience with handling animals. I have always had a love for animals, no matter how big or small. I am not certified in any training, but training all of my pups over the years has got to count for something, right? I am currently taking a break from my career in welding due to a back injury, so I’m looking for some work here in the meantime! I have full availability, and am willing to take care of any and every animal you have. I am very active and enjoy going for walks (or runs, for those extra energetic pups). I will always follow the house rules when it comes to your furry friends. Whether your animals hog the bed or are kenneled overnight, I will always give them the love they deserve and make sure they’re happy until you return!

“I would give Kennedy 100 stars if I could! She was an absolute team player and stepped in immediately when we had another bad sitter experience. Kennedy took on the job with little to no insight and not getting to meet us or our pets ahead of time. She took over in the most effortless way and let us enjoy the remainder of our vacation knowing our pets were in such excellent hands! She communicated very well and even communicated more to ease our anxiety. Kennedy is a rockstar and took initiative on asking if I needed any care of stuff I didn’t mention in my notes or a drop in before we made it home! Words will never be enough to praise her great work ethic. She truly cares about your pets like her own. Thank you for absolutely everything you did to help us Kennedy!”


About: I’ve taken care of my dogs since I was 11. I was told I had to do all the puppy chores if I wanted a puppy so I’ve always walked, bathed, feed, and played with them as much as possible.

I work Monday, Wednesday, and half a day of Friday and I’m normally available every other weekend. I do go to college but I’m online this semester so I’ll be home the days I don’t work. I have 3 fur baby’s who would play with your fur baby all day. We have all kinds of toys and room for them to play. I live on a big farm so they would be able to play and run outside also. I also never mind to bath them if they get dirty!

I cant wait to meet your pets and love them like my own! I have a fairly flexible schedule, so can fit most needs into my schedule. I do have a farm so have our own animals to care for as well. I will care for your animals in your home. I'll request detailed instructions and follow them to keep things as normal as possible for your pet in your absence. If you have a dog walking route, please let me know so I can stick to it.

About: With years of experience, I've cared for pets of all sizes, from small to giant breeds. Owners are always thrilled with my service and pets are too!

“Haley was great!! She kept us updated often and sent pics of our fur babies. Our diabetic little girl received her insulin dosages and was healthy and happy when we returned home. Our big shy boy has not been left alone since he came to live with us, but Haley knew how to let him come to her by sitting in the floor and waiting for him to come to her on his terms. We are very happy with the care in our absence, and would use Haley again when needed. 🐾”

About: I grew up with, and have spent my entire life with various pets and livestock, worked on horse farms, and provided house sitting services for individuals with multiple dogs, cats, and fish tanks. I also have experience farm sitting and providing care for horses. I currently work part time on a flexible schedule. With advance notice, I can easily work you into my calendar so that I'll be able to spend quality time with your pets, getting to know them and tending to their needs. I like to learn about pets' personalities and favorite activities and enjoy engaging in play to keep them entertained while their family is away. The life of a pet requires more than simply feeding, although I do respect those individual animals who prefer to be more solitary and quiet. I don't offer pet care or boarding on my property—I have 2 dogs, 1 cat, and 2 horses at home that my husband and I care for.

To me, I treat every dog like he or she is my own and I take pride in great care!
