“Everything is great and my favorite part is the photo updates, makes me miss Ruger more while I’m gone but also relieved that he is well taken care of! We were gone for two days and Katherine stayed with Ruger at our home. We went home and Ruger is just as happy as he is and I’m sure he misses Katherine!”


“We couldn’t be more pleased with our experience with Heather. After a few disappointing encounters with other sitters who didn’t even show up to meet our dog, Heather was a breath of fresh air. Not only did she show up as promised, but she immediately connected with our dog, treating him with genuine warmth and affection. While we were away, Heather cared for our pup as if he were her own—providing regular updates and photos that gave us complete peace of mind. It was clear he was in loving and capable hands. We wholeheartedly recommend Heather to anyone in need of a trustworthy, compassionate pet sitter. She exceeded all of our expectations.”


“Lindsey took care of our 2 dogs, a cat and our home. Not only was she wonderful with all the animals she kept my home neat and clean. She even changed the bedsheets. I would definitely recommend her. She is a blessing and made me feel comfortable leaving my family with her.”


“Mary Jane is an amazing sitter. First time having her sit for our two dogs. Two days before we left one of our dogs had to be put on crate rest. I was worried we would have to cancel our trip. Mary Jane came over and was confident there would be no issues. She followed the med schedule and did logs like I asked. AMAZING communication. Our one timid dog loved having her and even sat in her lap. Will be hiring again!”


“This was the first time we left our puppy Fiona. We left her with Evangeline and couldn’t be more pleased. Fiona loves her. Our puppy and home were very well taken care of. We would definitely use Evangeline again!”


About: Hello!! My name is Briana, but I go by Bri :). I’ve been caring for animals most of my life. I”ve had guinea pigs, hamsters, cats, dogs, and fish. I have my own cat for over 5 years and have regularly helped friends and family with their pets while they are on vacation. Whether that’s walking them, feeding them, playtime or cuddles. I’m all about giving your fur babies a comfortable and loving space as well as giving you a peace of mind! :) I currently work a full time job Monday-Friday. I get off around 4:30-5 each day (depends) and I’m pretty much free on most weekends :) I prefer not to care in my home since I still live with my parents. However, in your home, I would make sure your pet gets the love and care they need and deserve! I will make sure they stay hydrated, fed, loved for, play with them, even take them on walks or cuddle and watch a movie! :)

“Kat was exceptional with our dog Wrigley while we were on vacation abroad. She treated him as if he were her own pet, providing the utmost care and attention. Communication was smooth and efficient throughout our time away. We wholeheartedly recommend Kat to anyone in need of a reliable house or pet sitter!”


“Brenda is conscientious and cares about keeping me informed about how my Luka was doing with a new sitter. She is generous and takes the time to visit to get to know me, my pet, and her needs. I will definitely have Brenda back to care for my fur girl!”


“Aly was truly amazing. The moment she said my old lady aloof cat had cuddled with her, The stress of leaving my fur kids with someone new melted away. The whole craw absolutely love her and she sent pictures. She just completely put my mind at ease and we’ll be booking with her again.”


“Caitlin was really easy to work with and did an amazing job of taking care of our older cat and 4 month old puppy while we were out of town! She sent regular updates and took care of the house as well. We would absolutely book her again!”


“Tiffany did so well with our girls! They were just as fat and happy when we got home as when we left! She sent pictures regularly and was excellent with communication! We will definitely be re-booking!”


“Grace was amazing! Not only did she come meet my pup before the overnight stay, but she was in constant contact during the stay, sending photos and videos! She was extremely tidy in the house, and most importantly, my pup loved her! I can not recommend Grace enough. We will definitely be booking her for future stays!”


About: I’ve been caring for dogs (family, friends, my own) for 15 years. Dogs are pure love when they get to know you and I treat them like part of my family. Walks, proper nutrition and socialization are critical for an overall well-balanced life. I want to help you give a happy life to your pup in whatever stage of life he/she is in. I do work remotely (from home) at a full time job so my pet care hours would be limited before/after work and possibly during lunch breaks. It’s so important that your dog feel comfortable with me in their home. So I make a point to have at least one (or more) meet-and-greets at your home with you there to get your dog used to the idea of seeing me in that space. If you are scheduling a drop in visit, this will include potty breaks, replenishing water (or food if instructed) and play time. Walks will be one dog at a time but will also include replenishing water bowls.

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember, and caring for them is truly my passion. Whether it’s a playful puppy, a wise senior dog, or any furry (or feathered!) friend in between, I provide gentle, attentive care tailored to their needs. I’m experienced in supporting elder dogs with patience and compassion, as well as giving puppies the energy, training, and affection they need to thrive. Every pet in my care is treated like family, with love, comfort, and plenty of tail wags. With a flexible part-time schedule, I have plenty of time to give your pets the care and attention they deserve. I’m available throughout the week for drop-ins, walks, playtime, and cuddles—whether it’s a quick midday visit or multiple check-ins a day. Your pet’s comfort and routine come first, and I’m happy to work around their needs to make sure they feel loved and cared for while you’re away. In my home, pets are treated like family—they’ll have a safe, clean, and comfortable space with plenty of love, playtime, and snuggles. I make sure they have fresh food, water, and a cozy place to rest, as well as regular potty breaks or litter box cleanings. In a client’s home, I follow their established routines so pets feel secure and stress-free, keeping their feeding, exercise, and cuddle schedules just as you would. I’m attentive to each pet’s personality and needs, whether that’s energetic play, gentle walks, or quiet companionship.

“Rebecca treated my little girl Hazel with love and so much care, she did everything that I asked of her. She sent me pictures while I was away. I highly recommend her to take care of your pet.”


About: Like most homes, I grew up with many pets. We constantly had animals in our home. I have experience with newborn to seniors and everything in between 😊. I have been a stay at home mom for 7 years. Since my youngest started school I have been alone at home with nothing to do. I am available anytime while my kids are in school and anytime in the evenings when my husband is home from work. I am also available for over night sitting on weekends. I am ecstatic to help out in any way with your fur baby! I will give them so much love and care, like they were my own! I am not able to have pets in my current home, but I can do whatever I can to help in your home or with daily walking. Whatever you need, please let me know. 😊

“Amanda was great! She came by and met our animals on short notice and followed our instructions perfectly. She sent us pictures of our babies while we were gone and kept us updated. Definitely will book again!”


“Courtney took excellent care of my four dogs and took good care of my house as well. She was here the whole time like she said she would be and my dogs are happy and healthy. Thank you!”
