I’m so glad that Oli was available to come check on Gus while I was gone during the day. She is familiar with his routine and always sends me the cutest pictures!

Nancy’s incredibly communicative and caring when dogsitting for our 2 small pups and my mom’s small Havanese. We felt our pups were in great hands and she was easy to work with when we had some last minute changes. One of our dogs is anxious and reactive - Nancy was thoughtful and patient in meeting him which we greatly appreciative. Will definitely hire her in the future.

First time we’ve ever left our cat and home in the hands of a stranger. We have learned our cat might love Rosemary more than us. ? She kept us up to date with pictures. We’ll definitely book her again.

Jordan has watched my dog and cat a few times now and has always been great. My dog has separation anxiety when I’m gone, but I know he’s in good hands and she takes good care of him. Will continue to book with her for future needs!

David has been a lifesaver when it comes to us needing someone to watch our pups. He’s always persistent with knowing if our dogs are on any kind of medication or if they have a schedule when it comes to feeding and letting them out. He’s very quick to respond if you’re just wanting to check in on your pups to see how they are doing with David. Overall, I would always pick David to watch our pups and he’s always so sweet and gentle with them!

Amanda was fantastic. I feel secure in leaving her with my dogs. She followed their schedule and gave them a lot of love and attention. My home was just as I left it when I returned. She is intelligent, personable, and dependable. I plan to use her for my trip in September. I can now go on my cruise knowing everything will be okay at home. I highly recommend her.

Aubrey watched our two small dogs while we were out of town for a day and a half and she did a fantastic job. She sent pictures and videos of the dogs out walking and while hanging around the house. She also washed their bowls and vacuumed. I'm a bit particular with how my dogs are cared for and she did a great job. Will definitely use her again in the future.

I recently hired Kyle as a house and dogsitter, and I couldn't be more impressed with his service. From the moment he stepped into my home, I felt at ease knowing my house and beloved pets were in capable hands. Not only did he maintain the cleanliness and security of my home, but he also went above and beyond in caring for my furry companions. He followed all instructions meticulously, ensuring my pets' routines were maintained and that they received plenty of love and attention. Kyle demonstrated exceptional responsibility and reliability throughout his stay, and I returned to find my house in impeccable condition and my pets happy and healthy. I highly recommend Kyle for anyone in need of a trustworthy and caring house and dogsitter. His professionalism and genuine love for animals truly set him apart.

What a fantastic sitter Amber was! She was able to handle all 3 of our dogs, one of whom I am sure smothered her with affection attempts and another on the opposite end of the spectrum in that I know she had to use patience to win him over. She was able to do it all and everything in between. If our dogs could talk I know they’d already be asking when is the next time Amber is coming by. Thank you.!

This is Megan’s second time watching our pups or pup. We have 2 dogs that are opposite a small, sassy 16 year old and large energetic 5 year old. Both are cared for and loved to the max while we are away. We trust Megan and our pups love having her. Highly, recommend.

About: Grew up in an animal family where we owned different species of pets. I have experience and knowledge of birds, fish, dogs, and cat care. At 16 I was able to train and raise my dog from a puppy to an adult. This past year I rescued a kitten and have been loving being a cat mom. I have class twice a week right now and work part time. I am home most of the week while I work on the weekends. I live in an apartment that allows pets as I also have a cat. I try to meet my cats needs by providing safe places for her to climb, play, and sleep.
