“Nancy was amazing with our 11 year old Chocolate Lab and cat. She was on time every day, took plenty of pictures, and had great communication. She made sure he got plenty of outside time and play time and even checked on him between scheduled visits as well. To top it all off, she brought him some new toys that he was thrilled to show us when we got home. It's clear that Nancy cares about animals and we had such good piece of mind knowing that she was taking care of our old man while we were away.”


“Thank you Chloe for the early morning visit! Chloe also came over to get my key and meet the cats before the official visit. There were a couple last minute changes to their care, so I appreciated the flexibility!”


“Kami communicated very well with us. Our cat seemed happy to have someone pop in on her while we were out of town. She provided photos during her drop in visit, gave her some cuddles, cleaned the litter box, checked the water, and fed her.”


“This girl loves the ones she cares for! She was great with our girls even the one who needed meds and was a pistol about taking them. Great at daily updates and pictures. We will use her again 😊”


“Christina stopped by to let our German Shepard out while we were out of town. She took great care of our dog and we will definitely book her again for any future dog sitting!”


About: I have experience with both older and younger dogs, including dog-sitting rescues and providing overnight care. Messes do not scare me and I am more than happy to keep you in the loop. As a college student, I may be away for hours, but my schedule allows me to attend to tasks between classes. My weekends are a lot more free and flexible. If you have any concerns about this, please reach out. At your home, I will abide by all rules and suggestions, ensuring your pets receive the best care possible. This means feeding schedules, walking routines, overnight stays, and more.


About: I am a dog groomer by trade. I love animals and enjoy all the time I get to spend with them. I do not see walking or training dogs as a job but rather a hobby. I can guarantee that your dog will be in great hands with me as i will care for him/her as my own. Whether it is just a walk or major training needs I will work tirelessly to make you and your pet happy. The health and happiness of a pet means more than can be imagined and I know that without our beloved animals we would be lost. Feel free to contact me with any questions you may have. Thank you! I do work full time however this is a family gig where we all chip in. There will always be someone with availability to provide care for your dog just as we would our own. I have a fenced-in yard where the dogs can play either by themselves or in a group that fits their personalities. I offer walks twice a day if playing in the yard isn't enough. Depending on length of stay I offer a free bath. Depending on dog's coat I offer daily brushing. If I go to a client's home I will treat their home with the same respect I expect someone to treat my own. I leave everything the way I found it (unless there is a dog mess on the floor, I will clean that up).

About: It’s always extremely important for my family to find a reliable and loving dog sitter for our dog, and I know how stressful it can be & want you to feel at ease while your pup is in my care. Our dog is very welcoming when it comes to having another dog in the home, and we will always treat your dog like our own. I want you to feel at ease knowing your dog is in a safe place and being well taken care of while you are away. Your vacation is also their vacation! I work full time but have the option to work from home if needed or flex my schedule. I can make whatever I need work to fit into our routine of caring for our dog, Nala and your dog too! We have a fenced in yard and will let the dogs run the yard for as long as they want. Making sure they feel loved and comfortable as they are in their own home.

“Erin did an amazing job providing a week of drop-in visits for my six cats. I received daily updates and photos. She took the time to look for any cats that were hiding as well as played with the ones that came out to see her. When we got home, there were no messes or litter cleanup to deal with. I would highly recommend her and hope to use her again!”


About: I’m a babysitter and have been for 10 years, so not only do I know how to care for a dog, I know how to care for a human. As a college student I constantly miss my dogs at home, and will find joy in any excuse to give a dog attention. I’ve had dogs my entire life. As a college student I am happy to spend the night at places near my school. During weekdays though, I will not always be there. I will and can visit between classes and give your dog all the love in the world in the afternoon or evening after class :) I will make sure your dogs get to keep the routine they have when their family is home the best I can. I love to watch a show or do homework near the dog so I can be available for snuggles. More than happy to take dogs on daily walks, I love the excuse to get outside and get to know your dog!

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats from a young age. I am very comfortable with large breeds such as German Shepards and Labs. Also, I have an 11 month Cocker Spaniel so I can care for any sized breed! Additionally, I have a 4 year old cat and am happy to help look after kitties! I am happy to help with any special needs or requests as long as instructions are provided. I work full time but have a good mix of availability. Tuesday-Thursday I am available for early morning and late night visits. Monday and Fridays, I am available for early morning, early evening, and late night visits. Lastly, I am available all day on Saturday and Sundays. I am happy to take your pet on a long walk or to a dog park! If your dog plays well with others, I am more than happy to host a joint play date with my puppy. I am open to most requests as long as it is compatible with my schedule that week!

“Hannah is a great caretaker. My cat is generally very shy with anyone but me; but she came out and “visited ” with Hannah every day. That says a lot about her and her kindness. I will DEFINITELY ask her to take care of my cat again!!”


About: My family grew up with a cat only because my brother snuck it into the house one day. My siblings and I always pet sat for others though. I was lucky enough to take care of my roommates pitbull when I got older. My wife and I now have 3 dogs, 2 cats, and lots of plants. We love when our cane corsos, pitbulls, german shepards and kitten cousins come over. I will love your pets like my own. Whether that pet be a dog, cat, snake, plant, or other living thing. I’m a school nurse, so I am available early mornings and afternoons. I also have availability on lunch breaks and weekends. Feel free to reach out to see how I can accommodate your schedule. I work in the most trusted profession. A profession of caring and empathy. I will follow your rules for your pets. All pets outside will be monitored at all times. Common sense will be followed when opening doors to prevent escaping pets. Baby gates, doors, and leashes will be used as needed. The house is big enough to accommodate most pets. Meet and greets are required to make sure your pets get along with my pets when staying at my house.

“Amelia was awesome. Very communicative and even my shyest came out for her eventually. She even moved some of my plants to a different room at my request because the cats were playing with them. Will definitely use her in the future next time I’m away!”
