“Joanne immediately won over my pups, even my shy boy who usually takes his time warming up to someone. She sent me pics throughout the day and even extended her stay because one of my girls was nervous because of a thunderstorm. My dogs love her which means everything!”


“Christina was great with our two little yorkies. She was on time, very friendly and we could tell she loves animals. I can always tell how good a sitter is by my pups actions when I return. I must say they were so happy, full and looked like they had a teddy good time. I most certainly recommend Christina to anyone looking for a good, honest and reliable sitter”


“We've used Elizabeth a number of times. She's always great. Our dog is so happy to see her when she shows up and we come home to clean house and happy animals. She does a great job of communicating”



“Lyn was timely, kind, and did a great job taking care of our home and our three animals. I would book her again in a heartbeat. Our fur babies loved her and our high anxiety dog was glued to her side the whole time. He felt so comfortable with her.”


“Hannah was very communicative and seemed to have a deep care for all of my animals. I received regular updates, as well as updates when anything unusual occurred (which only happened once, thankfully!). I felt secure knowing my animals were being looked after by Hannah.”


“I cannot say enough good things about Gabriel. We met with our dogs, to see how they would be together and he and I talked about the weekend I needed puppy-sitting. Instead of either staying at his apt or mine, because she is a very recent rescue, I asked if he could keep her at his place during the day but then have all 3 of them come and sleep at my apt at night. I did this so that she would know that even if she gets dropped off somewhere else, she is ALWAYS coming back to her home. This worked out very well and he is just the most caring person when it comes to our dogs. I don't travel very often, but I would like to confirm that he is a magnificent pet sitter and I hope he gets lots of business because he deserves all good things!!!”


“Natasha was amazing with our senior pup! She was very communicative and took plenty of pictures and updates during our trip. I would highly recommend her as your next pet sitter!”


“Juliann watched our cat and dog while we were away for a long weekend. She did a wonderful job keeping us informed by sending photos and giving us regular updates. Highly recommend her.”


“Susan did an outstanding job pet sitting for our 3 dogs and 5 cats for an overnight! She was very communicative with us and extremely responsive. The house looked great when we got home. Highly recommend!”


“Elizabeth was communicative and reliable while I was away. She sent regular updates, took great care of my pup, and even watered the outdoor plants, which I really appreciated. I came home to a happy pet and everything in good shape. Thank you!”


“Tresalyn is fantastic! She house sat for us and took wonderful care of our dog, cat, chickens and fish while we were gone. She took the time to get to know our animals ahead of time with a pre visit and was so kind and considerate when we met. She made sure she understood the needs of our high energy, anxious dog and gave her plenty of exercise and lots of love while we were away. It was clear to us when we returned that she had cared for our home and pets with deep love and consideration. She also sent pictures and updates regularly while we were away, which we greatly appreciated! We are so grateful we found her! We can’t recommend Tresalyn enough!”


“Blair did an incredible job caring for our 3 pets while we were out of town. I was mostly afraid to leave my German Shepherd, as he can be so energetic and sneaky, but she took him on long walks and played with him. She updated us with photos and summarized how their day went. Our house was just as we left it. Thanks Blair!”


About: I have 4 pets of my own! 2 cats, a dog and even a guniea pig! I have been caring for animals all through my childhood. Helping family friends with horses and dogs or just helping out at home with foster babies! I work in the mornings at a breakfast shop so evenings I am all free! If I’m needed to stay overnight with an animal I will need at least 2 weeks in advance to work it out with my job! I cannot bring pets to my own home. That is for the safety of others pets since my dog gets along with small dogs only, and my cats are elderly! But I have no problem going to clients homes to care for their fur-babies!

This was the first time I left my dogs at home with a total stranger but after meeting Medea and seeing her interaction with them I was able to leave knowing that they were going to be ok. I felt completely at ease. She was very quick to respond to my messages and sent me updates with pictures before I even asked. She gave me peace of mind while I was away. My home was clean when I returned, and my pups were happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for both their home and their pets!
