We were so happy to have Jared take care of our Golden. He was east to communicate with and our pup got along well with his dog. We appreciated Jared being flexible when we got back into town later than expected. Our dog came home happy and healthy. We’d be happy to have Jared watch our dog again.

Kimberly and Jeremy helped me out in a pinch and I could not have asked for more! The dogs were integrated into the household almost immediately. They even handled some dog/cat challenges with ease and grace. I would go back to this lovely family in a heartbeat!

Deb was a 10/10 sitter for our pup! She is everything you would want in someone who is caring for your animal. She takes them in as if they are her own. Our minds were at ease for our dog’s entire stay - she was so caring and sent picture updates to let us know how he was doing. We will definitely be using Deb again in the future!

Lisa is the bees knees!!! She was so communicative and accommodating. I was nervous but in a pinch and needed to put my trust in someone to watch a very special member of my family. She exceeded any and all expectations I could have had. She was personable and friendly to me too. What an absolute pleasure. Thank you Lisa!!!!!

Excellent care and communication! We have an extremely spoiled and clingy German Shepherd who we have a hard time leaving. Jenae was awesome at calming our dog (and us) down. Great communication and pictures while we were away. Highly recommend and will happily use again for pet sitting.

Mia took great care of our sweet somewhat shy rescue dog, Foxy. She was very quick to respond before Foxy's stay and sent lots of photos and updates during her stay. Mia was able to accommodate our booking on short notice and the flexibility with pick up and drop off times was greatly appreciated. Foxy was obviously well cared for and received lots of love, attention, playtime and snuggles. I think she had a great time playing with Mia's dog as well and came home tired and happy.

If I could rate Angie 5+, I would! Our ACD had her first overnight stay in her entire 4-year life, and it was with Angie. Our girl is extremely high-energy and can get anxious or exhibit OCD behaviors in different situations. Angie requested a meet and greet a week before the stay so we could all be prepared correctly. Based on her questions, I knew she would provide Kora with the same love and attention she gets at home. Angie shared detailed updates with photos and made us feel confident Kora was in a loving environment that was perfect for her. We will use Angie again!

My dogs jumped for joy with their tail wagging when they see Kate. They enjoy the hikes and are tired after their adventure. Kate is loving, respectful and patient. I am at ease knowing my dogs are well cared for and in good hands. I would highly recommend Kate.

About: I regularly dog sit for all types of dogs from labs to German shepherds. I enjoy being around dogs and I'm comfortable watching them at my house or yours. Currently I am in high school so I would be there weekdays prior to 7: 45 and after 3 on the weekends I am available all day. As for care a make sure to follow your instructions for feeding and walks. As well as for medication. I do my best to do what you would do for your dog

Alexis was a lovely sitter for Nellie! I felt confident leaving (for the first time!) my puppy with someone else. She was prompt in her responses and pleasant to work with. Will use again!

About: I have grown up with animals my whole life including dogs, cats, birds, and reptiles. Ranging from senior 100 lbs+ dogs and small puppies, I have the capacity and love for taking care of yours! I am a full-time graduate student with a flexible schedule taking online classes. I am able to host/board and travel to any location in my area. I can be hands on or give the animal space depending on your preference. I follow directions exactly how you’d like me to with various diets and special needs kept in mind. I am also very active myself and love having a running or walking companion.

Lisa took special care of my older golden while we had to be gone downstate. We appreciated the peace of mind knowing that he was getting lots of attention and in a calm setting.
