“Extremely responsive to any and all communication. Informative, adaptive, and thorough. Upon my ring camera footage, I can tell my doggo loves the walks with Bridgette. I am very pleased start to finish with her work and dedication to my dogs safety and comfort. I will continue to book and I suggest you do too!”


“Cara was great with Darby. He takes a little to warm up to people and she didn't give up on him. After a slow start they made it out for their walk and he did well with her.”



“She was awesome with my little guy. At first he was being a stinker and hid under the bed and barked, I told her she could go and not worry about it. Then I get a picture message of him walking outside fine. Definitely took the time and had the patience to work with Orion to build that trust. Definitely, definitely highly recommend. She is amazing!”


About: I've had dogs as long as I can remember. My last one being an English Mastiff, so no dog is too big for me! I have also rescued and fostered several dogs and I volunteered at Angel's for Animals I am Retired Army so I have plenty of availability for your needs. I'm here to help walk your dog, do checks in for any pet and house sitting. I don't like to think of your animal as a pet. I like to respect they are living creatures with their own personalities and treat them accordingly.

About: I have taken care of family pets since I was young. As I grew older, I adopted my own pets and have volunteered in animal shelters as well. I have always had dogs and cats in my life and it has grown to guinea pigs and a bearded dragon. I'm able to give baths, do walks, and bathroom breaks and provide ample amounts of play time. I am available for Labor Day weekend! I am also a full time stay at home mother so currently all of my days and times of the week are free and open, even weekends. I let all of my animals on my furniture if they want in my home. They all have their special homes and spots where they can be in peace until they come out with the rest of the family. My home is kept clear of dangerous items, tiny small toys for example that pets might eat.

About: I have taken care of dogs (and cats) of all different sizes for my whole life. I am very patient and very loving. I would love to help you out! I am currently working part time, so I will have plenty of left over time to fill with your furry friends! No matter the breed! I have a fenced in yard with two very friendly dogs at home. When in your home I will be sure it follow any instructions given!

About: I have had animals my whole life and I have love for all kinds of fur babies. I can’t wait to meet yours and shower them with love and attention! I just graduated college and am applying for corporate jobs at the moment, but so far am primarily pet sitting so my schedule is very open. I do not care for pets in my home as it is a shared space with roommates and pets. Thank you for your time and understanding.

About: I’ve taken care of animals and have grown up around them most of my life. If it be for family and friends, my own pets, or house sitting. I enjoy spending time with all pets, walking them, and being around them! I think pets are family and deserved to be treated and loved no different than others! Pet care fits into my daily life/ routine easily. I have a flexible schedule and don’t mind last minute changes if needed with notice. I understand life happens! Life's can be unpredictable and require adaptations! I care for pets in your home just as if you were home doing it yourself. The pets routine will be followed and can even send updates while visiting! You know your pet best and how they are!

About: I’ve practically had every animal under the bridge. From Fish, to lizards, rabbits and guinea pigs, and cats and dogs. I was a 4-H kid for a while, so I’m very comfortable with animals. During Covid, my mom and I fostered and recused over 60 cats, making sure they got loving families. We have 8 cats currently, and I own a guinea pig. I’m good with newborn kittens, so if they need feedings, or they need to be stimulated to go potty, I’m good with that! I can also administer medication to pets, whether that be a pill, liquid, or medical creams. I just graduated highschool, and I’m going off to college in August. I have many pets, so I understand the importance of balancing your needs and your pets. All of my pets are indoor cats, but I have taken some cats outside on a leash for supervised visits. When I’ve watched over pets for friends, I always make sure that they are in my line of sight and reach. If they have a fenced in backyard, I still stay outside to watch.

About: I have been dog sitting for years for my neighbors, family, and friends. I have experience with all ages of dogs after working for a dog boarding facility this summer. I am currently living at home as an online college student, and have a very flexible schedule and lots of time to care for your pups. With my own pups at home, I would love to accommodate your fur babies in the comfort of their own environment so they feel safe.

About: Hi! I’m Cass. I have been a life long animal lover. I was often the child bringing home every stray cat and dog I found. When I became a Mom and my youngest son begged us to get a dog, I was so happy. We added Rocky to our family 12 years ago and he’s been my companion ever since. We also have two cats Domino and Luna to complete our family zoo! We’d love to have new furry friends and visitors to come on our family adventures and to play with. I work from home so I am available all day for pet care needs to be able to frequently feed and bathroom breaks along with some outdoor time I have a somewhat private back yard and I will be outside with your pet at all times while they get outdoor time and use the bathroom or I am able to go to your home and walk them in their environment. I also have a nice neighborhood block area that I am able to take breaks and walk your pet.

About: I have a flexible schedule and work per diem in healthcare, which allows me to give your pets plenty of time, attention, and love. I offer regular walks, playtime, and lots of affection to make sure your pet feels safe and happy while you’re away. During our time together, I can also teach basic tricks like sit, paw, roll over, and lay down—keeping things fun and mentally stimulating. Pets are welcome to relax wherever they feel most comfortable, including the couches and beds. My home is smoke-free, peaceful, and full of love. I truly go the extra mile to make every pet feel like part of the family. Pet care is one of the most meaningful and fulfilling parts of my week. I work per diem in healthcare, which means I have a flexible schedule and can dedicate quality time to caring for animals. I structure my week around the needs of the pets I’m caring for—whether that means morning walks, mid-day check-ins, or overnight stays. Making sure pets feel safe, loved, and relaxed is something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize in my daily routine. When pets are in my care, their comfort and safety come first. I create a calm, clean, and smoke-free environment where pets are free to relax, snuggle, and feel right at home. I take time to get to know their routines, preferences, and energy levels—whether they love to play or prefer quiet companionship. In my home, pets are allowed on furniture and beds if that’s what they’re used to, and I follow any feeding, medication, or behavior routines closely. In a client’s home, I always treat the space with respect and care, keeping pets on their usual schedule to reduce stress while you’re away. I believe in clear communication and always send updates, photos, and messages so you feel connected and reassured.

About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life. I have always adopted my pets and think it's very important for them to have forever homes. I help with a non-profit group called No Fear Rescue which helps dogs go from foster homes to permanent houses! I am going back to school in the Fall, and I think this would be an excellent way to do something I love and earn money for school. I have flexible hours to help out. I understand people have busy lives and dogs need exercise or sometimes just a bathroom break. I haven't met a dog that I don't like. They are such loving animals that are also part of families. I love outdoors and exploring parks with my furry friends. I'm currently in my final year of college and this part time job fits perfectly. Gives me the best break from the books and flexible hours. I am very hands on with pet sitting and your pets care is my number one priority. I always learn the routine that is already set with the pets to make sure every visit is fun and safe!

About: Hello! My name is Chelsea and I have lived a life with love for all animals in my heart very fruitfully. I personally have two large breed dogs of my own, and one hamster. I’m not shy when it comes to types, ages, or sizes of animals. I am the first person my family and friends leave their animals with because they know that they will find their dogs sleeping next to me on the couch, treated like royalty and family. I work with rescue agencies as well as fostering agencies to ensure stable homes, donated needs are being met, and daily play time is available. I own a large home with a fenced in backyard. I have experience with special needs animals as well. All drop off pets MUST be okay with other dogs. No exceptions!! If you need last minute overnight care you MUST provide the crate, food, and other necessary items. I cannot host puppies without their crates in my home. Please make sure your pets are up to date on their vaccines as well as their preventative medicines! Prices have been adjusted due to rising gas prices. I’m sorry for this inconvenience and when they go back down so will my prices! 💕 I have open availability working around my sons school schedule. I’m a SAHM and work PRN as a nurse & clean Air BNB’s between pet clients. I am always able to work with your schedule! I have a massive fenced in yard with security cameras. All animals have free access to water in two places and feedings are timed scheduled (unless client otherwise states). My home is two stories and I am able to separate animals if need be.

4. Jeremy C.
“I have three ferrets that Jeremy has watched for me on numerous occasions. He is extremely careful and gentle with them, and honestly they never want to come home after being in his care. He makes sure they are fed, watered, played with, and well taken care of. I have had him bathe them and cut their nails, too, and there has never been an issue. You can tell he is an animal person through and through, and I wouldn’t trust anyone else to watch the ferret kiddos! He is FANTASTIC and I highly recommend Jeremy to anyone for any pet needs. He doesn’t shy away from any animals, and I can assure you that if you allow him to care for your animal, you will not be disappointed. I would easily rate 10/10.”


5. Melissa V.
“Melissa watched my 2 dogs and cat for me while my family and I went on vacation for 2 weeks. She sent me daily pics of my pets playing with her son; how cute! They really enjoyed their time there and were well taken care of! I have referred numerous colleagues for her pet services and will most definitely be using her again! Thank you Melissa for taking such wonderful care of my babies! See you next time!”

8. Makenna F.
“I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Makenna for many years, and I can confidently say she is one of the most caring and responsible people I know especially when it comes to animals. Her love for animals is genuine and shines through in everything she does. Makenna has cared for my dog & cat on several occasions, and each time I’ve been happy with her patience and over all care for them. Whether it's administering medication, going on long walks, or simply offering companionship, she treats every animal like her own. My cat absolutely adores her and that says a lot. My dog also loves her but what puppy doesn’t love everyone! What sets Makenna apart is her natural ability to connect with animals and the trust she builds with both pets and their owners. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible, attentive, and truly compassionate pet sitter.”

16. Avi C.
“Although Avi recently took care of our dog and cat while we were gone for a week, he’s been our pet sitter for a while (which included a feisty gecko!) When we came home, both animals were so happy to see us but also sad to see Avi go. In the amount of time my husband and I witnessed him interacting with our beloved pets, he was very sweet and warm toward them. Even when our dog was initially barking protectively, Avi took his time, went slow, and gave positive reinforcement the whole time to gain trust. We love that we know we can count on Avi to keep their routines and keep them happy and cared for when we go away for any length of time!”

She has multiple years of experience caring for her own pets, including, dogs, cats and even pigs over the years. She is reliable, respectful, communicative and trustworthy.
