Matt is wonderful to stay with our pup. We even noticed our husky was sad that he left after the last stay of almost 2 weeks. Sends updates, can replace bulbs, and is a supper kind animal person!

We had an amazing experience with Adrienne! She stayed with Mickey and kept us updated with frequent messages and adorable pictures, which gave us a peace of mind while we were away. It was clear Mickey was well cared for, happy, and comfortable the entire time. We truly appreciated the communication and attention to detail. We would absolutely book again and highly recommend Adrienne to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!

Heather is the absolute best! She took wonderful care of our baby, and we can’t thank her enough. Great communication, and she took the time to send us daily pics to let us know how our pup was doing while we were gone.

Briana was great with our pups! She stopped by for a home visit before the dog sitting, and was great with communication before and during the stay. The pups looks happy and well cared for when we returned.

We could not have asked for a better house sitter. Jake stepped in last minute, arrived early, and was incredibly communicative throughout his stay with our dog, which gave us honest peace of mind. Our dog was clearly well cared for, and we truly appreciated that Jake was present when we returned home. Jake is reliable, attentive, and kind; we very much look forward to using him again and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for excellent care.

About: What sets me apart as a dog walker is the genuine love, patience, and attention I give every pet as if they were my own. I have a special soft spot for senior dogs and understand they often need extra care, slower-paced walks, gentle handling, and lots of comfort and affection. Whether your pet needs a quick 20-minute walk, a drop-in visit, or all-day companionship, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for the entire time. I focus on building trust with each animal and providing personalized care for their unique personality and needs, giving pet parents peace of mind while they’re away. I am a stay at home mom of older children so I am available daily as needed. I am also available weekends and holidays day or night. I will give complete loving care to your pets and will walk and give companionship as much or as little as needed. I will treat them like my own.

Lauren was friendly and even came a little early! I left for work knowing Diego was a happy pup in good hands. He greeted her with lots of kisses and even took the initiative to find out where cleaning supplies were after I mentioned Diego happy pees and cleaned up after him without needing to be asked. We will definitely be repeat customers! Thanks Lauren :)

We've never been gone from our pets for two weeks before. When our usual pet sitter told us she was unavailable, we were hesitant in finding new ones for such a long trip. Alexia and Jay were incredible. They had the best attention to detail, care, and love for our animals as if they were their own. Day 1, one of our dogs hurt his back legs somehow and they took him to the ER for us just to be sure. Never a complaint once. It was all smooth sailing after that. We got so many pictures and videos multiple times a day. Very responsive and available for any and all questions. They even went above and beyond to reset the house a bit before we came home. They take this very seriously which made our trip much less stressful. Thank you so much! Can't wait to book you again.

Best house sitter that there ever was!!! She washed and folded the laundry that she used (we didn’t ask her to), she helped out with Buddy, our Elf on the Shelf, and was great with communication.

About: I have always had a pet in my house since the day I was born. Mostly dogs, but I have also had other smaller pets. I now have one 12 year old chocolate lab and one 6 year old black lab that I take care of everyday. Because of this I have experience with puppies and older dogs, along with dealing with more than one pet at a time. I currently have school from 10:30-2:15 but I am free anytime before then and after that. I also am available almost every weekend if needed. I have a fenced in yard with a doggy door to get outside and two friendly dogs to keep your pet company. I love to take my pets on walks or just play with them in the house or yard.
