“Kaylee truly went above and beyond for house sitting our two dogs. She even provided enrichment to stimulate their minds and was able to care for our hurt dog with ease. Our house was kept clean and she arrived promptly and timely. Thank you for everything again!”

“Theresa by far exceeded my expectations. She was very tentative to Scooby spent time walking him and giving him love. I left without worry and sent me plenty of updates. I will hire her again. My pup is very active and she kept him busy with love and attention. Thank you Theresa!”


About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have experience caring for pets of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I have been trusted plenty to walk, feed, play with, and check in on people’s pets while they’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I genuinely enjoy being around animals and staying active. I have a flexible schedule and make sure pets get the attention, walks, playtime, and care they need. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and pet care throughout the week and always try to accommodate different schedules when possible. I have a friendly pup to keep company and have a large apartment that has a lot of grass space. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for whether I’m in my home or a client’s home. I pay close attention to routines, feeding instructions, leash safety, and each pet’s personality and needs. I’m patient, dependable, and treat every animal like my own, making sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and love while you’re away.

About: Hi there!

Also, I am willing to administer medications as needed. I recognize that each pet is different and their needs will vary depending on the circumstances. I will happily care for and/or walk your pets in your home, where they are the most comfortable in their own familiar surroundings. This is my full-time business, and my schedule throughout the week is very flexible, so I can adjust my days to accommodate the times that work best for you & your pets!

“Marriah is simply incredible at caring for high-needs pets. This was my first experience using an app for an overnight in-home house-sitter for my 14yo yorkie. Our dog has a strict prescription diet for cushings disease and requires gentle, attentive and near constant care. Marriah was professional, cheerful, patient and supportive throughout the 8 days she stayed with our little old lady. I was amazed how Marriah hand fed our dog and got her comfortable and eating again even while she was moping and sad from being left behind. Marriah sent so many pictures and updates on how our girl was doing and I felt so safe leaving my smallest family member in her hands. She is worth every dollar and I would recommend Marriah to anyone looking for an experienced and compassionate caregiver for any kind of service from walks to overnight care. We will definitely ask for her again!”

“I always know that Asher will be SO well cared for by Mackenzie. It’s such a relief when I am out of town to know that my girl is in good hands! Thanks, again, Mackenzie!!!”

“Somyr was exceptional. She was patient with my nervous Luna and took time to get to know her. Somyr sent photos everyday, was very communicative, even helped with the last minute request for daily medicine to one of the pups. She is my go to dog sitter from now on. I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their pets as if they were her own. Thank you Somyr!”

“Thank you, Cassie for taking such great care of our dogs while we were out of town. We came home to happy dogs who didn’t seem to miss us at all while under Cassie’s care. Thanks again!”

Having had dogs my entire life, I have developed a deep understanding and love for our canine companions. I specialize in training puppies and offering compassionate care for senior dogs, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and happy. In addition to my personal experience, my full-time job involves caring for a variety of pets, including dogs, fish, hamsters, bunnies, guinea pigs, turtles, and more. This diverse experience has equipped me with the skills to cater to the unique needs of different animals, making me a versatile and knowledgeable pet sitter. When you entrust your pets to me, you can rest assured they will be treated like family. I am committed to creating a safe, nurturing, and fun environment where every pet feels at home.

When caring for a pet, I prioritize both warmth and safety to ensure your pet feels comfortable and secure. I begin by establishing a routine that closely mirrors their usual schedule, including feeding times, walks, and playtime, to provide a sense of familiarity and stability. I ensure the home environment is safe by checking for any potential hazards and keeping dangerous items out of reach. During our time together, I offer plenty of affection, gentle handling, and positive reinforcement to build trust and make your pet feel loved. I also stay attentive to your dog/cat health, monitoring for any signs of distress or discomfort and keeping you updated on their well-being.

About: I have worked with and been around all kinds of pets my entire life. I have owned many different kinds of dogs including high energy breeds. My father uses cocker spaniels, brittanys, and labradors to hunt. When he wasn't hunting with them, I trained and took care of them. We even bred out labradors. I also have a good amount of experience with cats and a great deal of experience with horses. I know horses have nothing to do with this, BUT if I can take care of a half ton heard animal I can definitely handle your high energy doodle! At the moment, I am very free to take care of your pet everyday. Once a day tues-sun i have to go to the barn to ride my horses. I wont be gone more than 4 hours to do that. My days will get busier around fall and I am occasionally away at horse shows. I live in a cozy yet spacious apartment. Kept organized and clean. Perfect for cats or the mild energy dog. I dont have a fenced yard so if your dog needs free range that is something i cant provide day to day. But I can always bring them to dog parks or sniff spots if that is something you would like. I can provide twice daily walks or more if needed. *********IMPORTANT: My dog (Luca) is susceptible to parasites, especially giardia. He is on preventative and has all his vaccinations , but I cannot allow or take on UNVACCINATED or UNPROTECTED pets. I can’t take a dog that is showing any signs or symptoms of a parasite or other illness. If your dog is vomiting or has loose stool and diarrhea, please contact your vet because they could be a great danger to others they may encounter. Please make sure your dog is perfectly healthy before requesting any kind of boarding. Please be responsible, truthful, and honorable when booking sitting or boarding for your dog. Thank you! ***********

I live in an apartment in a a safe and pet friendly neighborhood. I am comfortable with all animals and enjoy giving them 1-1 attention, and care.

I had a great experience with Theresa while I was away for a few days. She was very attentive, reliable, and clearly cared about making sure my pets were comfortable and well taken care of. She kept me updated throughout the stay and sent pictures every day, which gave me a lot of peace of mind while traveling. Communication was excellent, and I could tell my pets were in good hands. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!

We truly cannot thank Pam enough for the compassion and care she showed for my special needs cat when we went out of town. She treated my baby as if she were her own. There were some challenges with my cat’s behavior but Pam was extremely patient and understanding. Pam never gave up that’s for sure!! Eventually, my cat began to relax some by the end of the visit. Pam sent us photos and videos multiple times a day and her communication was extremely thorough. She seriously put our minds at ease. Pam also stayed overnights and looked after our house - between bringing in our garbage cans to getting our mail and even sweeping up the floors and washing all of the linens used during the stay. Oh my! We couldn’t be happier. 🩷 Pam is a wonderful and kind soul and we totally recommend her services.

Kaitlin did an absolutely amazing job taking care of our two Labrador Retrievers, Chase and Rusty! From the moment we met her, we felt completely at ease knowing our dogs were in such caring and capable hands. She was attentive, reliable, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. Chase and Rusty can be a handful at times, but Kaitlin handled them with patience and enthusiasm. She kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. When we came back, both dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. On top of that, our house was in pristine condition upon our arrival, which we truly appreciated. It’s clear she goes above and beyond in every aspect of her care. We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter and would highly recommend Kaitlin to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate. We will definitely be booking her again!

Tracy was amazing with my 4 dogs and came through for me at the last minute. She also kept an eye on the house while I was gone and notified me of an expected visitor that drove into my property. My dogs loved her and she went above and beyond to make sure they were comfortable with her. Thanks for taking such good care of them!

Olivia took such great care of my two dogs while I was away last minute on a trip. One dog was a Great Dane foster who I was very nervous to leave with someone as she is a special needs case and a handful. Olivia had no problems and I felt totally at ease with constant pictures and updates. I highly recommend using Olivia and will use her again in the future!

Sofia was truly amazing with my dog, Socks. He was pretty down and missing me while I was away, but she was so patient and loving with him. She really took the time to comfort my boy with lots of snuggles, quiet company, and just letting him feel whatever he was feeling without rushing him. It meant so much to know he was being cared for so gently. He really is a gentle giant :) She also kept me in the loop the whole time with photos and videos, which made such a difference since I was missing him just as much. I'm so grateful for Sofia! She clearly loves what she does, and Socks was really lucky to have her! 100/10 would recommend Sofia to anyone!!
