About: I’ve been around cats and dogs since childhood. My friends, family, and co-workers have trusted me to care for their fur babies! I have a senior pittie with reactive/aggressive behavior, so I do have experience and empathy towards that! I work full time Monday-Thursday 7:30am-5pm but can drop in after work or later in the evening as well. Friday-Sunday are my more flexible days! I fully respect the owner’s schedule for their pet and will follow whatever instructions are needed to ensure your pet is safe and cared for properly. I would ask the same for my own!
“Genevieve stayed at our house to watch Marlow for the weekend. She did a great job, was super communicative, and sent lots of pictures. Would definitely book with her again!”

“Brian did a great job despite bacon’s sass! He cleaned up her puke piles, made sure she was fed, and even brought in our amazon packages. He was very understanding of bacon’s cold cat shoulder and kept me updated throughout.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and have been around them for most of my life. Between caring for my own family dog and helping neighbors, friends and family with their pets, I’m very comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime and keeping dogs on their normal routines. I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pet, and I’ll treat them like they’re my own! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate different pet care needs throughout the week. I’m available mornings, evenings and weekends, with flexibility during the workday when needed. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine and schedule! I’m very respectful of both your pet and your home and will follow any routines or instructions you provide. I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise and care while keeping their environment safe and comfortable. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you know how they’re doing while you’re away.
“I do not know where to start other than Hillary went above and beyond for my furbabies Piper and Paislee. The night before Hillary was suppose to come stay at the house Paislee became very ill and was at emergency vet from 615pm until 6 am. I explained everything that was going on to Hillary and for not ever watching Piper and Paislee she was very attentive to Paislee as we had to leave 2.5 hours after getting her home to the airport. I cooked everything I needed and left all medications on the counter and let her know the times of next doses. She seemed comfortable with everything and I couldn’t have been lucky enough to find her. She used her best judgment and I couldn’t have been anymore blessed with her caring PIper and Paislee. I was able to get updates about every other day due to our traveling plans. I let her know many times how grateful I was. Then I came home to a beautiful letter and she washed all the blankets from the dogs, towels, and the guest room bedding. She do not have to do that but I am grateful. Hillary went way above and beyond caring for our dogs. Thank you Hillary from the bottom rny heart!!!!!!!!”

“Tayler watched our dog and shy cat at our house while we traveled overseas. She was great with our older dog and cared for our very timid cat. Communication was excellent and she sent very nice updates during the week. I highly recommend Tayler!”

“Kevin stayed with my 3 big boys while my wife and I were on our honeymoon. We didn't worry at all and Kevin kept us posted with updates on the boys. Would love to have Kevin sit with my boys in the future without hesitation - He did a GREAT job!”
“We could not be more thankful for Jessica. Our dog, Chloe, is quite a lot to put up with when she meets someone new, and Jessica handled all of her behavior like an absolute champion. Jessica is calm, collected, and you can tell really cares about your dog. She pushed through the difficult moments of getting to know Chloe and helped us so much with introduction ideas and how to help Chloe's stranger-danger behavior. Her and Chloe are now besties! Jessica was very professional, took care of our house wonderfully, kept us updated with texts and photos. We will absolutely be asking her back!”


“We are SO grateful that Soly was available to stay at our house for three weeks while we were away! Everything went so smoothly starting with the meet & greet. Soly arrived at our house ready with questions and took thorough notes on everything we went over. He did such an amazing job caring for our dog, Phoebe as well looking after our turtle that is housed in a 75 gallon tank. We felt very at ease with receiving regular updates on how things were going and appreciated how attentive Soly was with our pets. He went above and beyond to make sure all our plants were watered, mail was collected, and parts of the house were vacuumed and cleaned. Soly even made a special trip to the store to grab more lettuce for our turtle! After a long day of traveling, we came back to a clean house and happy pets. And a new toy and treat for Phoebe sitting on our table :) ‘Most Thoughtful Pet Sitter’ award goes to Soly. We will definitely be using him as our go-to sitter!!”

“I’m so grateful I found Ben. I was able to take a long weekend getaway, knowing he had it all under control. He stayed at my home with my cats and dog. He even sent pics for me. My mind was at ease and I could enjoy my weekend away. I’ll definitely be using him again.”

About: I’ve been doing overnight dog sitting for 7 years, I have many reoccurring parents reach out to me! I am a student getting my masters who loves to go on walks! I have quite the busy schedule but I prioritize the pets as much as possible! When I’m not at school I’m always sitting around with the pets so they aren’t alone and stay as much at the house as I can! I care for the pets just like I would if they are mine, I always find time to make sure they are not left alone for an extended people of time and they always love me!

“Cassidy has been amazing with my girls. I will definitely be using her again! She communicates well and left the place very clean. My pups were very happy to have her.”

“Michelle did a great job of watching over our two golden retrievers (age 4 months and 5 years) while we were on vacation. She followed our instructions perfectly and went above and beyond in caring for our pets and our home. Michelle is a great communicator and sent us updates on a regular basis. I highly recommend her as a pet sitter and would not hesitate to hire her again.”

Yvonne (Vonnie) did an excellent job of dog sitting. Vonnie was wonderful with my dog who can be a little shy/anxious and slow to warm up to new people. I got update videos and pictures consistently every day. My space was also kept nice and clean, which I so appreciated. I will definitely be booking with Vonnie again.

Melissa was a wonderful sitter for our small picky dog! In our meet and greet I could tell she was passion and excited to get to know Spruce. She sent us a ton of photos and cute stories about their time together. She sat at our house and I was pleased to come home to a happy dog and a well cared for home. There were little signs all over the the house showing that she cared for him and the property! She left us a sweet note about how she was thankful to get to spend time with Spruce. I look forward to using her again in the future!

Colene did a wonderful job this past weekend with our fourteen-year-old, 50-lb, mixed breed pup Brooklyn. Brooklyn can be a finicky eater now, in her old age, and has some arthritis that makes getting up and going out a bit harder for her than it used to be. She enjoys it once she gets up, but it can be a struggle to convince her to get up and go out. But Colene gently encouraged her, and Brooklyn ate her meals and took walks during her two-night stay, which doesn't sound like much if you have a puppy, but is really excellent with an elderly dog. I highly recommend Colene! Virginia

Brian took wonderful care of our two boys. He kept us updated, sent lots of photos even when we weren't responding (we were overseas), which was the most appreciated. He was flexible with our travel schedule, and went above and beyond by taking care of other tasks we were struggling with. The dogs clearly loved him—and his dog, Pig! We’ll definitely be booking him again.

Emily was great!! We were gone for 8 days and she stayed at our house and took amazing care of our dog, Zoey, our cat, Lewis, and our home. She was extremely respectful, trustworthy, and easy to communicate with. We received regular updates while we were away, and she made sure Zoey got her walks and plenty of attention. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing both of our pets were in good hands. When we got home, the house was exactly how we left it and Zoey and Lewis were both happy and well cared for. We honestly have no complaints whatsoever and would absolutely trust Emily to stay in our home and watch them again. Highly recommend her!
