“Delaney was great watching my three, big German Shepards and was respectful of my home and did a great job caring for them! I highly recommend.”

“I would give Kennedy 100 stars if I could! She was an absolute team player and stepped in immediately when we had another bad sitter experience. Kennedy took on the job with little to no insight and not getting to meet us or our pets ahead of time. She took over in the most effortless way and let us enjoy the remainder of our vacation knowing our pets were in such excellent hands! She communicated very well and even communicated more to ease our anxiety. Kennedy is a rockstar and took initiative on asking if I needed any care of stuff I didn’t mention in my notes or a drop in before we made it home! Words will never be enough to praise her great work ethic. She truly cares about your pets like her own. Thank you for absolutely everything you did to help us Kennedy!”

I’m not just a sitter — I’m a calm presence, a routine-keeper, a play buddy, and most importantly, someone who genuinely loves animals. I treat every pet like they’re my own. If that sounds like what you’ve been looking for, I’d love to meet you (and your four-legged bestie)!🩷 Pet care is part of my everyday life—I build my schedule around your pet’s needs.

Samantha O.
“We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter! They cared for our entire crew, four dogs (including two seniors over 10), three guinea pigs, and six chickens, with patience, love, and true dedication. One of the most impressive things was how they helped train our energetic one year old puppy. Thanks to their consistency and gentle approach, our pup now knows how to sit, give paw, lie down, stay, speak, and even heel on walks! They gave each animal the attention they needed, from managing our older dogs’ medications to keeping the guinea pigs’ habitat clean and making sure the chickens were safe and fed. We came home to happy, relaxed pets and an organized home. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a responsible, skilled, and truly caring sitter!❤️”
Alyssa C.
“Alyssa is a highly disciplined and a conscientious individual who has owned an animal most of her life. She is knowledgeable about their needs and gives them lots of attention. She would be responsible and provide the same level of care you would personally provide. She is also energetic and could run with your pet. All attributes that will lessen your worry if you are unavailable for your pet.”
