“Mia was absolutely INCREDIBLE!!!!! She would constantly send picture updates and made me feel secure as a nervous dog mommy. I will definitely hire her again and will recommend her to anyone needing a petsitter.”

About: I offer personalized, one-on-one care tailored to your dog’s unique needs, personality, and routine. With a focus on reliability and attentiveness, I make your dog’s comfort and daily schedule a priority. I strive to be a calm, loving presence your dog can trust, helping them feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while you’re away. As a full-time teacher, my weekdays follow a consistent and predictable schedule. I am available for afternoon visits after school, evening care, as well as overnight stays when needed. On weekends, holidays, and school breaks, I have more flexibility and can provide extended care, additional visits, or longer stays. This structure allows me to offer reliable, attentive pet care while maintaining clear communication and consistency for your pet. I care for pets with a focus on comfort, routine, and individual needs, whether in my home or in my client’s home. I follow each pet’s normal schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and medication, and I take time to learn their preferences and personality. In a client’s home, I respect their space while providing attentive, one-on-one care and keeping pets in a familiar environment. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and calm interactions, and I communicate regularly with updates so owners can feel confident their pet is happy and well cared for.
“Alex is a slam dunk. Animals were healthy, safe, and happy when we returned. Received regular, daily updates during the week. House was spotless. Definitely a re-book. Thank you so much, Alex!”

“Lindy was amazing! They gave us great updates every day on how Laika was doing, and what they were up to everyday. And lots of adorable pictures in which it was clear Laika was having a great time with them. Highly recommend!”

“Allyson was responsive and always sent pictures and updates while we were away, which put my mind at ease! My dog and cat seemed very happy and calm with her care, and everything with our home was in order / clean upon our return. Would use Allyson again to watch our fur babies!”

“Harley was such a great sitter for my three large dogs! They warmed up to her immediately and you could tell how much she cares for animals! She even kept me updated with pictures of my dogs throughout the weekend while I was away! I highly recommend her!!”

About: I've never been without pets in my life. My family and I have always been avid animal lovers, and I've been lucky enough to raise dogs, cats, snakes, and even horses! Growing up, we always had at least two dogs, and oftentimes, a cat as well. Currently, I have two cats and a pit bull of my own. Over the past 8 years, I've worked as a pet sitter for friends, family, coworkers, and neighbors. I'd like to offer my services to those who may not have someone they can lean on when they're busy! I work 3 days a week as a full time EMT and volunteer with a local fire department in my free time. If you have any questions about my services, me, or my availability- please don't hesitate to reach out! :) As a full time EMT, my work schedule is very forgiving. I have four days off each week, which are Monday, Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday. I can very easily fit pet care in on those days, and by request, can sometimes squeeze in morning care on Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. With a dog and 2 cats of my own, I do not offer boarding services. I have plenty of experience pet sitting in your pet’s natural habitat; home visits are no issue for me, and I think it’s the best way to ensure that your animals are as comfortable as can be while you’re away.

“Lilliana has sat for my Winnie now twice. She is very communicative which leaves me assured winnie is in good hands. I always come back to a tidy place, as well as Winnie acting normal so I know she isn’t anxious with her. She is great with her schedule. She was also able to sit for us within a pinch when we found out we were leaving unexpectedly.”

“Wesley was wonderful! Super responsive, communicative, and confident with our fur crew from the start. Our dogs can be pretty high energy, but Wesley handled them with patience and clear commands. We’ll definitely be booking with Wesley again!”

“Christina took great care of our two dogs and cats while we were traveling. This was our first time using a pet sitter and she helped us be at ease! We got lots of pics and updates which were so welcomed!”

“Lauren was great. Super friendly and could tell she truely cared about taking care of our dog and 2 cats. She sent pictures and updates and asked questions to make sure she was doing everything right. She was accommodating with a more last minute booking to house sit for a weekend. Would definitely reccomend Lauren!”
