“Bria provided excellent overnight care for my two cats, Thelma and Louise, while I was at my sister’s wedding for 4 days. She was reliable and communicative, and I didn’t have to worry about them at all. My cats seemed comfortable with her, and I returned home to happy, well-cared-for pets. I won’t hesitate to hire Bria again when I need to go out of town.”
“Porsche stayed at our house with our dog Penny while we were away on a vacation. She sent photos everyday of our pooch. When we returned Penny seemed very well taken care of. The house was neat. We would highly recommend her!”
“Dana! Wow, what an excellent human you are. Thank you so much for conquering an unplanned battle this weekend against our enemy, the sugar ants! It's an ongoing war, and you went out of your way (as I'm sure was necessary), thank you. Junie's asking constantly about when we are planning to leave again and left a travel brochure on my pillow last night. I caught her this morning trying to text you herself...something about coming over to finish that list of movies you started together. Had to change the password on my phone, that stinker! I'm sure you'll be hearing from one of us again soon! Thank you so much, Jess + Matt + JUNEBUG! 🐾”

About: I have years of experience caring for and watching pets of family members. I love animals and animals love me! I am very precise and careful when it comes to animal care. I am available 7 days a week and have no problem spending ample amount of time to ensure your pet is not only cared for, but loved and happy. I am very energetic and outgoing and love to keep pets entertained. I can accommodate any needs while ensuring your pet has fun! I am also very organized, cleanly, and respectful of other peoples’ space. I am willing to go the extra mile: bringing in mail, washing sheets, watering plants, etc. to make your return from travel as relaxing as possible.
“Fandi was great! Sent lots of pictures and you can tell she really enjoyed caring for my two dogs”
“Matt took great care of our pup while we were on our honeymoon. Before we left Indy had a cut on his foot that required him to wear a bag on his foot and to be wiped with medicine after returning inside. Since this happened the day before we left we didn’t really have a chance to get him used to the process. Matt went above and beyond to care for Indys paw injury and kept us updated. We would highly recommend Matt!”

“Marilyn was wonderful with our dogs. They warmed up to her right away and they got along great together. When I asked her to come a bit sooner than originally planned, she immediately agreed saying it wouldn’t be an issue. We went over everything I had written down and all went well”
About: I will understand your dog's needs and take the time to make sure they are comfortable. I have experience with reactive, aggressive, and shy dogs with varieties of needs. I have 3 border collies, my daily routine is dogs. Training, playing, and adventuring is what we do. Every day has basics that need to be met, but also beyond that. My dogs get their needed play and attention in my small fenced yard daily as well as a different daily activity, from swimming to homemade dog gym time, there's always something different and fun.
About: What sets me apart is how much I truly love getting to know each dog’s unique personality. Whether I’m helping a puppy burn off energy or giving extra love and patience to a senior pup, I’m all about making them feel safe, happy, and cared for. I have experience with dogs of all ages, can give meds if needed, and I’m super reliable. I’ll treat your dog like they’re my own—lots of belly rubs included! Pet care is something I build my week around because it’s one of my favorite things to do. I love starting my day with a dog walk or stopping by for some cat cuddles in the afternoon—it gives my day purpose (and way more smiles). I’m flexible with my schedule and make sure each pet gets the time and attention they need, whether it’s playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company. Taking care of animals just fits naturally into my everyday life. Whether I’m hanging out with your pet at your house or mine, I always make sure they feel safe, comfy, and cared for. I stick to their routine, give them lots of love and attention, and make sure everything is secure—doors locked, food and water fresh, and plenty of play or chill time depending on their vibe. I treat your home and your pet like they’re my own, so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands.

I am also a cat lover and have had cats my whole life. I can provide your feline friend with lots of play time. I am often called the cat whisperer because even the most shy cat seems to come around once I spend some time with them. I am very patient! Your pets are in good hands with me! 🦜🐶🐈 While caring for you pet I will send pictures and videos to show how they are doing. I am happy cleaning up after them in your home, including sweeping and taking pet waste out to the trash can.

Caroline house sat Oliver for the second time and did an amazing job. I would recommend Caroline to anyone that wants peace of mind when they are away from their pets.
Anne took great care of Sydney, made sure she was exercises, entertained, and loved while we were gone!
It was clear from the initial meet and greet that Matt was 100% committed to ensuring my dog, who is shy and anxious around new people, would feel comfortable with him when he stayed with her. He impressed me with his knowledge of dog behavior as well as his professionalism. When one of my dogs suddenly passed away two days before his stay Matt took everything in stride and went out of his way to not only ensure my remaining dog was ok but also provided regular updates and pictures to reassure me that she was fine. Following Matt’s stay it was clear that he had a clear attention to detail as the house was exactly how we left it- he even took the trash out for us and left a few lights on when he heard we would be back in the evening. Thank you Matt for everything you did for Luna during your stay!
Skyler is AMAZING! She was ok such great care of my girls during my business trip and will 10/10 be booking with her again!
Samantha did a wonderful job of taking care of my dogs. She is so sweet. She sent me pictures and videos of the doggies and they loved her. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a dog sitter.
We appreciated the introduction visit and open communication throughout the weekend. Our dogs clearly enjoyed their time with Christian!
Alex is the best! We truly appreciated the photos and updates and felt very secure with Alex’s confident and caring approach. Our home was left in pristine condition and our dogs were content and relaxed! Highly recommend Alex, especially if you have dogs who can be a little slow to warm up to new people.
Stephanie did a great job taking care of my dog and my home. Sent pics and communicated in a timely manner. Will definitely be using her again.
Ally is the best! She spent the weekend with our dog and he had the best time! We came home to a happy boy. I didn’t worry at all while I was away because I trust Ally - plus she sends me lots of updates!
Adrianna is great with both of our dogs! One of our dogs requires daily medication! She is timely and treats our pups like her own. We have booked with her multiple times and trust her in our home while we are away!
Katia was great! She kept both dogs on their normal schedule and they loved her! House was clean and the doggies were happy😊. We will definitely use her again!
Kimberly was very good with Sherlock and was willing to come stay with him on short notice. We really appreciated the help!
Savannah took wonderful care of our dog Charlie! She is reliable, responsive and caring! I highly recommend her and won’t hesitate to have her care for him again!
Erika was Great! My dog and Cat were so happy. She sent many pictures and interacted with them to keep them entertained and happy. Erika even went to a farmers market and bought my dog a huge bone to chew on. But only after she checked with me to ensure that he was allowed to have it! I would highly recommend her to anyone needing care for their pets. She stayed in my home and took care of it like it was hers.
