“This was the first time I've left my cat Bean for 3 nights and I worried about him. Got a couple pictures and he looking fine. Payton took care of my 11 hens and 14 chicks which goes beyond the call of duty. She collected eggs and topped off food/grit. Oh, also fed my fish. A lot going on here. It's nice to know there's a good pet sitter right here close to where I live.”
“Karly was exceptional with Joey and Gracie. She is diligent and kind and kept me up to date. Karly was faced with a challenging situation that she handled with grace and compassion. I wouldn’t hesitate to have her sit for me again.”
“Sarah was amazing. My kitties are kind of shy and she was able to get them to come out and let her pet them and play. My daughter wants her contact information because she would like to book her to take care of her pets in the future too. We will definitely rebook. My husband says she was fantastic. Thank you so much, Sarah.”
“Shawnee did an amazing job taking care of my cats , they both were comfortable with her right away. She went out of her way to check on a problem we had with our automatic feeder, thankful for that. We received photos daily and updates on our cats. I’ll definitely book her again when we need someone to watch over our cats.”
About: I have owned and cared for my own and other’s pets my whole life. I have taken care of dogs, cats, birds, fish, reptiles, and snakes - pets are my passion and I strive to help owners provide their animals with the best quality of life possible. My main dedication is pet care. I am available most days of the week, any hours needed. I work my personal schedule around the needs of the animals and pet-parents! It is something I am truly passionate about and willing to put in the extra time. I play with my kitties for a minimum of 30 minutes every day. I also play with my dog for a minimum of 30 minutes every day, or 60 minutes if the weather is not agreeable for a walk. Catboxes get spot cleaned daily and deep cleaned weekly. The dog and cats get routine preventative medication for fleas/ticks/worms, and the dog gets weekly baths.

I always connect with my client, and see if they have any specific requests for their pets, be that general care, walking needs, special feeding requirements. I want their pet to have as close to a regular day as possible. If it’s simply stop by and check, I’ll make sure to check all their dishes, clean as needed, and feed before I leave.

About: Hello there! My name is Nicole and I have recently graduated from the Victoria Stilwell Academy as a Certified Dog Trainer. I would love to contribute to the enrichment of your dog's life with positivity and love! I have a 4.5 year old Golden Bernese that requires daily, 30 minutes walks minimum, free-running, and mental stimulation games like food puzzles and kong wobblers/stuffers. I also have a 19 year old DSH tuxedo kitty who requires special care. She has kidney failure and lymphoma and we work hard to keep her happy and comfortable with a renal maintenance diet, subcutaneous fluids, steroids, and whole lotta love. Whichever safety, prevention, and enrichment needs your dog/cat needs, I'm your person! I will use the knowledge and skills I've gained through the Victoria Stilwell Academy for Dog Trainers to alleviate any stress they may feel.
About: I am unapologetically that person who greets your dog before I greet the people. I've been pet sitting on and off since I was 13. I am experienced in animal behavior, first aid, and am great at fetch! I have worked and fostered in rescue, loved the toughest animals, and can ensure a safe and spoiled experience for your animal under my care! I love all animals and have had my own dogs, cats, snakes, geckos, lizards, amphibians, chickens, bunnies, mice, hamsters, and fish! I have trained and raised wonderful puppies into dogs and am experienced at administering medicine as needed. From puppy/kitten/baby-hood into the golden senior years your animals will be safe and loved! My schedule will be changing with my full time job, and I will update this as needed. For now, I'll be available after 6PM Sunday through Wednesday and any time Thursdays through Saturdays. Between fostering, taking care of my own animals, and helping my family with their pets... pet care is just what I do when I'm not working! It's daily and constant, and my top priority! I never leave animals unattended. I take my job as a caretaker extremely seriously and I know their safety and happiness is in my hands! I always make sure dogs are secure on their leash before going on walks, I make sure kitties don't run out the door, and make sure any heat lamps are on for any reptiles or caged animals that need it! I make sure no food, snacks, chords, etc. are accessible in the home and I am watching them the entire time. When on walks, I do not let dogs greet even on leash and I am vigilant watching for off leash dogs. In the event of an aggressive dog encounter, I always put myself in between the two dogs and keep the dog in my care safe at all costs.

Sienna A.
“I had a work injury and couldn't walk my dogs while I recovered. Sienna stepped up to the plate! She took my rambunctious dogs for walks, played fetch with them in the yard, and made sure they got extra love and were ready to nap once she was done.
