“Anna did a great job taking care of my dog while I was away. Would use her services again.”
“Ellie did a great job watching my high anxiety pup! She also was very respectful of my house and left things very clean. I would definitely have her back to watch my girl.”
“Diane was awesome. She sent so many updates and photos and took such great care of Ruby Sue. The house was left spotless too! I would definitely recommend her and will absolutely have her help again in the future. Thank you so much Diane!!”
“Jeff was the best petsitter we have had - he stepped in right away when I was in a schedule pinch, he followed directions to a T, he kept in contact to let us know everyone was doing well, he shared how much he enjoyed the doggos, and when we arrived home the house was immaculate, smelled nice, and the dogs were relaxed and happy. I didn't get to meet him in person beforehand, and he is definitely someone you can trust if you have to do the same.”
“Katherine was amazing! She did an overnight stay for a few days with my large dog Henry. She was super communicative and took extra care to make sure he was comfortable during the July 4 fireworks. I would definitely book her again.”
“Sara was wonderful and took great care of my two pups and my house. She went above and beyond and I so appreciate finding someone I can trust with my fur babies! She was also really flexible when I had to add days on short notice due to a family emergency. I’ll definitely book with her again!”
“Good sitter! Was clearly engaged with our cats, enough to pick up on their habits and personality traits. Good at handled accidents and hiccups with minimal fuss. Good cadence of updates without overdoing it House was left clean, and doors locked, lights off, etc. Would definitely repeat.”
“Taylor was super accommodating last minute care. Zoe was very receptive towards Taylor. Appreciate her being on time, great communication, picture and video updates. Felt at ease knowing Zoe was in good hands. Would love to gatekeep her so she’s available when we need, but she’s a must book!”
“Can't say enough good things about Rachel. She respected our home and took good care of our senior dog 2 cats. She gave us timely updates and we were able to relax during our getaway.”
“Maiz did a great job with our pups. He sent lots of update photos, took them on lots of walks, and played fetch with our high energy dog. He also stepped in somewhat last minute on Labor Day weekend to help us out. Would recommend!”
“She was very loving with Blue and communicative! My elevator went out while she was watching my dog and she talked with me to work out a plan (my dog is afraid of the stairs 😭). Very helpful!”
“Joanna cared for my 2 dogs for overnight boarding and took excellent care of them. I strongly recommend Joanna for any house sitting or pet care because she is awesome and dogs love her.”
“Amanda was clean, courteous, and took good care of our pups. She sent good updates with photos and stripped the bed before she left. Would recommend!”
“We are so grateful for Alex watching our senior dog, two cats and fish while we were out of state for a week.

“Melissa did a great job watching our dog Bizzy. She did as we asked and left our place spotless as well. We could tell Bizzy had a great time while we were gone which was really reassuring for us.”

About: Experienced with rescue and fostering animals. Dog & Cat owner. I regularly pet sit for friends when they travel for a few days or weeks. Big nature lover, I enjoy walking dogs in nature whenever possible. Flexible pet sitting schdedule. Currently shifting work schedules and have openings most days, as my work can be flexed to fit into pet sitting activities. Currently unable to care for pets in my home. I have the capability to either visit your home a few times a day, as needed, or stay in your home while I care for your sweet furry family memebers. Maybe wating a few plants while I'm there. (plant sitting is available, too!)
“Nadiia stayed in our home to watch our 2 cats. She was great! Kept us up to date, took great care of the kitties and left our place spotless. Would recommend her.”
“Courtney is everything you could want in a dog sitter. She has sat for my pups twice now and the dogs are perfectly content when I get home. She sends photos and updates regularly and seems to really enjoy spending time with them. I’ll definitely continue to book with Courtney!”
“Madison is great as usual. My dog is so relaxed and happy in the pictures she sends. She's a great communicator and takes good care of our home and dog. She is organized and is a valued sitter for us. So grateful we found her”

I've relied on her to feed them and keep their kitty box clean when I've been in Europe for three weeks, or just away for a long weekend. Aries in particular doesn't really like or trust most people, but he loves Misha! And I know that whenever I am out of town they'll get lots of love and attention from her.”
