“Amanda was fantastic! She is very professional, always on time and reliable. She stayed at our home caring for our dog while we attended our son’s wedding out of town. Amanda sent many pictures and took Barkley for walks daily. She also brought our mail in and cleaned up the house before she left. Her communication was excellent too. This was our first experience with an in-home dog sitter and it was perfect!”


“Amanda was simply amazing. We are navigating a new illness with one of the pups, and she didn’t hesitate to step in and be willing to help. She made sure Bella was well cared for, giving her medicine and adjusting to her new food routine. Amanda checked in several times a day to give updates. I greatly appreciate Amanda’s flexibility and ensuring that I was able to have a weekend away without worrying about the dogs.”


“Joanna is the best! She stayed with our dog for just under a week in our home and took the best care of her. Our pup has pretty severe separation anxiety and requires medication and Joanna made sure she was comfortable and cared for. Sent lots of pictures and daily updates. When we got home, our house was spotless and just as we left it. We will definitely be using her services again!”


“I couldn’t have asked for anyone better than Kaitlyn. She was communicative, kept us up to date on the animals, sent pics, kept the house cleaner than I do, and the animals are relaxed and happy after our absence. It will be so much easier leaving them next time as long as we have Kaitlyn!”



“This was a repeat booking for Ross and our dogs. We are always able to enjoy a vacation whether it’s short or long because we know our dogs are in good hands. Great communication and always leaves the house how we left it!”


“Jordan took fantastic care of our 2 pups! She sent a ton of pictures and updates and our dogs were very happy with her. She took great care of our house too! Will of course use her again in the future.”


“She was absolutely amazing with our three German shepherds! One of the first times we felt like we never had to worry about anything on a trip! She took care of everything and communicated with us often. We could not have asked for a better person! We will definitely be asking for her help again. Thank you so much!!!”


“Everything was great. Followed our pets schedule and provided plenty of love. The house was very clean when we returned so that was a huge bonus. Will definitely use again in the future”


“Shaine was wonderful with our dog Georgie. She was attentive and made sure his needs were met. The home was clean and in order when we returned from our trip. I will be sure to hire Shaine again if we need to take another trip!”


“Nicole was the best sitter I have had on Rover! She helped me out last minute in a bind, was so responsive and constantly sending me pics of my pups! I will definitely be booking her again!”


“Makylie house sat for us for a week. She was quick to respond to our messages. She sent us daily pictures of our pups. They looked happy and well loved on. We felt good about leaving them with her and would use her again.”



“Annie was amazing!! She sent updates morning and evening with several pics and videos each time. She played outside with her and even did some training. Our Janie had a wonderful time with her!!”


About: I’m a lifelong dog lover with experience caring for dogs of all ages and sizes. My love for animals extends beyond my own past pets; I’ve also provided reliable pet care for family, friends, and neighbors. I’ve also cared for cats and love meeting new furry friends! I offer reliable dog walking and drop-in services and am committed to keeping your pets happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. I’m currently working part-time a couple days a week, which gives me plenty of flexibility. I have fairly open availability throughout the week and most weekends. When caring for pets in their home, I always follow the owner’s instructions closely to maintain your pet’s routine and comfort. I keep a close eye on pets during walks and visits to ensure their safety and well-being. I’m attentive to any changes in behavior and communicate openly with pet parents to give them peace of mind. Your pet’s health, happiness, and safety are always my first concern.

“Yai did an exceptional job of taking care of the babies, er, dogs. I had a last minute trip come up, and Yai accepted the sitting job with 24 hours notice. She even came over that evening to meet the dogs, and learn the feeding routines including medicines for the dogs. She was extremely pleasant, and sent plenty of pictures and videos to me that provided peace of mind while I was away. The dogs seemed to really love her. I would highly recommend Yai to look after your doggies!!! Thanks So much YAI. Wonderful job!!!!!”


“Christian is infinitely empathetic, caring, and attentive to your fur babies! He also is extremely conscientious about leaving your home as clean and orderly as he found it- or more so. He brings in your mail, takes out your trash and recycling, brings it back in. He communicates regularly and provides photos that illustrate how your pets are doing when you are away! He washed the bedding on the bed he used while doing an overnight and remade the bed! I can’t recommend him highly enough!”


“Allison did a wonderful job watching our two furbabies while we were out of town. We got daily updates and pictures about their adventures. She took them on daily walks and gave them plenty of cuddles.”


“Anne is amazing! We had unusual circumstances and she really helped us through. She was great at updating us and sending pictures so I didn’t worry. I have an older dog and they sometimes have accidents and she was very understanding. I had her stay at my house and she left it looking exactly like when I left. I highly recommend Anne.”


About: I’ve had dogs my entire life—chihuahua, beagle, westie, and now a shih tzu with more personality than most people. I’ve learned that every dog moves at its own pace. Some are playful and bold, others calm and cautious. I meet each one with patience, respect, and steady care so they feel safe and understood. I offer house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking. Whether your dog needs a long walk, structured play, or quiet companionship, I’m there with a calm presence and close attention to their routine. I work part-time and live locally, so I have the flexibility to accommodate early mornings, midday visits, or evenings. You can expect reliable communication, thoughtful updates, and the kind of care I’d want for my own dog. Let me know how I can help—I'm here to make things easier for both you and your pup. Daily walks are part of the rhythm. On weekends, we head to the park to get the zoomies out and soak up some sunshine. At home, I keep things mellow—ear rubs, belly scratches, and a few favorite treats (animal crackers, carrots, or blueberries, if they’re into it). I don’t see pet care as a chore—it’s second nature, and honestly, one of the best parts of my day. I’m usually available early mornings, early evenings, and most weekends. If your pup needs someone consistent, calm, and tuned into their vibe, I’ve got you covered. Whether I’m stopping by for a walk, a quick check-in, or staying the night, I keep things clean, calm, and consistent. I follow your dog’s routine closely—meals, walks, play, rest—whatever helps them feel at ease. I move at their pace, paying attention to what makes them feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while you’re away.


“Tabitha was amazing!! 10/10 would recommend to anyone needing a sitter. She did an incredible job house sitting with our pup for an entire week. She was great about keeping the house clean and sending updates while we were away. Will definitely be asking her to come back for the future!”
