Payton was amazing with our dogs. From daily walks to cuddles, they really enjoyed their time with her. We loved all the pics which only reaffirmed that they were in safe hands. Not only were our dogs well taken care of but so was our house while we were away. We will for sure be asking her to sit for us again.

Christine is a great caregiver! My dog & cats were given excellent care. She stayed a week and kept in touch so I knew how they were all doing. I came home to very happy, relaxed pets because Christine was so good to them. She fed, walked, administered medication and even cleaned up after them.

Natasha was wonderful with our senior dog, gave meds, and lots of kind attention. She was incredibly organized and communicated on all direction. Natasha stayed in our home and retrieved the mail, organized packages, took out the garbage, etc. Wow! We could not be happier or more confident in the care she gave our dog. We will definitely be asking Natasha to care for her again!

About: I have been a pet sitter since I was 14 years old. I love taking cares of other peoples animals and truly enjoy every second. I have a flexible full time job and I am looking for occasional jobs to spend time with some pets and make a little extra cash! I carefully follow the owners instructions always to ensure that everyone is comfortable with the care I am providing. I will also ask any questions to make sure of this.

Bailey was a great sitter for our pets and home. She kept us up to date on how they were doing with fun pictures - and went above and beyond the care we asked for with longer walks and play time.

Kristin is an amazing pet sitter. She has a high attention to detail and will make sure your pets receive the best care possible. She will do “the dirty work” because let’s face it, animals are gross and make big messes sometimes but she will take care of it because she understands. We love Kristin and will use her services again!! Thank you Kristin!!

This is the second time we have had Jessica take care of our animals and she did an absolutely excellent job as per usual! She even helped us with some packages and our animals just adore her! We recommend her to everyone we know (but we call first dibs because she is the best!)

Lisa did a great job with our shy kitty and even thought of things I didn't think to ask her (like leaving a kitchen lamp and the radio on for the cat, since we were getting home after dark from our trip). She left everything in great shape, ran the dishwasher etc., sent us pics of our kitty and was responsive to messages. Thanks Lisa!!

Isabelle did a fantastic job with our pets including our dog with diabetic/insulin needs. She is conscientious and responsible and we felt very comfortable having her house sit our dog and cat. She left the house in the same condition as she found it and the pets seemed relaxed when we arrived home. We appreciated her taking the time before to do a 'Meet and Greet' which gave us confidence in her abilities. We would definitely request her in the future and would highly recommend.
