“Stephanie was an amazing help to us this week with our two inside cat babies, Ginger and Muffin, and our one outside cat visitor, Sylvester. Stephanie is an excellent cat sitter!”
“She is the one of the best pet sitters I had. Always available to take care of my kittens with a short notice ( I have to travel frequently for my work with short notice) so communicative, friendly and supportive.”
“Joanne kept us in the loop and was able to warm up with our very protective Rhodesian Ridgeback. I’ll be having her back the next time we need! We are very grateful for the care she put into our 5 pets!”
“Barbara is wonderful. She was such a caring sitter for my older dog Oreo while we were out of town. She was thankfully able to fit us in for a last-minute booking, which helped us out tremendously. She was also great about making us comfortable leaving our dog for the first time with a sitter. Oreo took to her right away like a family member. Barbara was always on time and went above and beyond for our drop in visits. She responds very promptly, pays attention to details, has great communication and kept us updated with all of Oreo’s activities with every visit. She sent very thorough updates and lots of pictures. She was great about anticipating my dogs needs and communicating with me to manage situations as they arose. (She even brought my packages in off the porch). I felt comfortable trusting her in my home. I highly recommend Barbara, and will be looking forward to booking her again in the future.”
“Aria was great with my dog. She was on time and communicated very well through out the entire process. I will definitely be booking her services again!”
“Kira did an amazing job with our extremely active golden doodle. She came over twice a day and not only fed him and cared for him, but also played with him and loved him. She sent pictures all week and I could really tell that our dog Ace felt comfortable around her.”
About: Hi, I'm Gessy! I have several years of experience caring for both cats and dogs, especially pit bulls and small breeds. I've done pet sitting, walking, feeding, playtime, and even given medications when needed. I treat every pet like family-gentle, patient, and dependable. Whether it's for a weekend or longer, your pets will be safe, happy and love with me and my family. I am currently a stay home mom, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups!

“Donnis was amazing with my high maintenance Pomeranian. I am an overly anxious dog mom but she made me feel so comfortable while I was away. I’ll definitely be using her again in the future. Thank you so much, Donnis!”
“Jessi has been great to work with. She is very flexible and does a great job with our puppy. Not only is she dropping in to bring her out for potty breaks and play time but she is also working on basic commands with our sweet puppy. She's great at communicating and updating us about her visits with our fur child. We would definitely recommend Jessi to help with your pet care needs!”

About: Hello- I had pets all throughout my childhood. As soon as I moved out I’ve always had pets of my own as well. I’m a huge dog lover. They are able to stay in my home. Or I can come to yours for walks/playtime, feedings and to make sure the water dish is filled. I have a pretty open availability, am very flexible and willing to go above and beyond to make sure your furry family member receives the best care. Also worth noting – I have three dogs, that are kept separate when we have visitors. With a family of five all the dogs get a lot of attention during their stay. I rotate them between rooms, walks and fenced outdoor time. I am self employed and work from home. Aside from taking my kids to and from school my schedule is more or less pretty open. I’m flexible and accommodating I am a very active person, we could go for long walks or even runs if the dog is able. At my home we have a long driveway and four acres for them to go on walks to get outdoors and sniff around.

I’m always gentle, patient, and committed to earning your pet’s trust—because they deserve to feel safe, loved, and at home.

I felt at ease knowing Nora was taking great care of them! Thank you so much Nora!”
About: I have been taking care of dogs for 6 years now. Every time I have any family members or friends on vacation i always will dog sit. I have a dog of my own so I understand what pet owners are looking for and the care their fur babies deserve I currently run a business with my husband which allows me to work from home. Because of this I have a lot of time to be able to take care of dogs. Also since my husbands flexible schedule he is usually home and so your dog will always be safe with someone I have a cavapoo named Mylo. I also have a huge backyard it is not fenced but the way it’s set up dog gates can enclose the area. I will also be taking the dogs out every two hours during the day to ensure sufficient exercise

About: Caring for dogs has always been a part of my life. I started out sitting for family and friends, and as word spread, I became the go-to sitter for others in the community. I’ve built a strong reputation simply by loving every dog like they’re my own—whether that means long walks, belly rubs, or just being a calming presence when you’re away. Your pup’s happiness and safety are always my top priority. I am a full time real estate agent. I have plenty of time in between showings throughout the day and some days with no appointments at all. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my top priorities are comfort, consistency, and safety. I follow the pet’s usual routine as closely as possible feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions—so they feel relaxed and secure in their familiar space. I make sure their environment stays clean and cozy, give plenty of attention and affection, and always keep communication open with the owner. Whether it’s sending photo updates or checking in with questions, I want every pet parent to feel at ease knowing their furry family member is in caring, capable hands.
“Lauren did a fantastic job! She communicated in a timely manner, came by to meet our pup before the first visit, and gave us a thorough update of her visit with pictures of our pup! Would highly recommend.”
About: My first pet was a lab/doberman mix named Mickey. I grew up right alongside Mickey, and, since it was my idea to get a puppy, I often found myself at the forefront of his care. I also quite often walk my friend's dog as well (she had a great dane), so I would say that I have plenty of experience handling big dogs! With that being said, I love to care for all kinds of animals, and I look forward to getting to know you and your furry friends! I currently am a part time student and work part time as a pharmacy technician. I am looking for regular, fun work experience with some pretty great animals! I walked my dog four times and a day fed him on a set schedule. This always allowed us to exercise and build a routine!
About: I have been a dog owner for much of my life. But, after the last dog passed, I figured I would open my heart to look after dogs of all types and sizes, when their owners are away. I have had a 6-week-old Newfie mix and I am used to caring for puppies. I also looked after a Collie into her senior years. I have worked with dogs with severe allergies and medical needs as well. And, it would be my joy to love and care for your fur baby when you are away. I work from home and as a result am available to walk, feed, play-with, and take your dog outside whenever they need to do so. I have a step-free home which is perfect for larger dogs and puppies, and a large yard where I can walk with them as well as access to several walking trails
