“Debra took great care pf Rocky. The neighbors enjoyed meeting her and she actually got a booking from my neighbor Donna for January. My home was neat and tidy. You never knew she was here. I would highly recommend her.”
“Two thumbs up for Sara! She came over several times prior to us leaving so she could get comfortable with my dogs, she took great care of them and sent me lots of pictures and videos. My house was left perfectly, she got my mail, and watered my grass for me. I will use her again and I would recommend her to others.”
“Thomas did a wonderful job with our lab. We felt she was in good hands and he stayed overnight with Willow and worked from our home during day so she had him to keep her company. We were very happy that Thomas did a meet and greet and took the time to get to know Willow. We will keep Thomas on our list to contact for future dog sitting needs.”
“Shirley saved the day for us. Our scheduled pet sitter became ill and had to cancel. Shirley saved the day, she was able to accommodate my very last minute request. She did very well with our very energetic 14 month old pups. Would recommend.”
“Jennifer was amazing with our older, anxious dog over the 4th of July. She kept her calm during the fireworks and gave us total peace of mind. We came home to a happy, relaxed pup—she’s truly the best! And we can’t thank her enough for staying at our home caring for our lovely Leila!”
“Alex was great and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. He was responsive, kept me updated, and the dogs were always happy around him. I would highly recommend Alex for any dog sitting/walking service!”
“Corey was very attentive to Paige's needs, from feeding her on time, to walking her in the neighborhood, taking pictures a couple times during her stay. Paige loves to sleep with someone and enjoyed sleeping with Corey. The cost was reasonable and was worth the extra tail wiggles. We will definitely ask Corey back if the need arises.”
“Debra was AWESOME!!!! She was so good with our pups, and she followed their schedule, which is important in older dogs! She sent lots of pictures and updates and asked questions when she was unsure of something. She went above and beyond by taking our trash out, washing the sheets and making the bed she slept in, and making sure the house was nice and clean when we got home. I will DEFINITELY be utilizing Debra to watch our pups again!!!”
About: It’s not a job for me it’s what I love to do. I have experience with senior care and I always celebrate their birthdays and special occasions. Once I booked the pups I do all my errands weeks before so I’m ready for them to arrived. Once they’re home it’s all about them. At my house they’re care as one of my own. Potty and playing time is very fun in my yard even though we have no fence yet they’re all on a leash with plenty feet to run around.
“Pawsitively Fantastic Dog Sitting Experience! My first time having Jennifer care for our 3 large dogs and house sit, and I cannot express how grateful I am for the outstanding care my dogs received. From start to finish, the experience was nothing short of exceptional. Jen exuded professionalism and genuine love for dogs from the moment we met. Her warm and caring demeanor immediately put all my dogs and me at ease, making it clear that they would be in good hands. Communication was excellent throughout the entire process, from initial arrangements to daily updates on my dog's well-being. One aspect that truly stood out was the daily updates and photos provided by Jen. These thoughtful messages not only reassured me of my dog's happiness but also allowed me to feel connected to their experiences in my absence. Her attention to detail was impressive, she came over twice prior to our trip and took the time to learn about my dog's habits, preferences, and any special needs, taking notes about their care and routine. It was evident that they went above and beyond to make my dog feel comfortable and loved during my absence. It was evident that she treated my dogs as if they were part of her own family. Then our flight got delayed over 8 hours and upon advising Jennifer she immediately offered to stay longer, and come back again to check on them without any hesitation, I couldn't be more thankful and grateful for her going above and beyond my expectations. I highly recommend Jennifer to anyone seeking a reliable, caring, and responsible dog sitter. Her passion for animals, combined with their professionalism and attention to detail, makes her a standout choice for pet owners looking for top-notch care. I can confidently say that I will be booking Jen for all my future dog sitting needs, knowing that my boys will be in the best hands possible. Thank you for the fantastic experience!”
“Xaviera was a life saver when she house sat for us when we had to leave town last minute around Christmas time, and needed someone trustworthy to take care of our dog, Ginny. Xaviera made the trip to our house the day before she started to meet Ginny and see the place, and during the week she stayed at our house we got daily pics and clips. She treated Ginny very well (including a few Christmas presents...!) and we felt both our house and dog are in very good hands. We will definitely contact Xaviera again next time we need a sitter.”

“Churee was an incredible companion to Moxie and a pleasure to interact with! She and Moxie became fast palls and she kept us apprised of all of their adventures via awesome montages throughout the evening. We really enjoyed working with her and can't recommend her enough. We will definitely use her the next time we come back. Thanks for everything Churee!!”
About: I have had dogs my entire life. My 13.5 year old Golden, Miley, just passed a couple of months ago. Miley was part of a litter that we had from my parents' dog, Abby. I have experience with dogs from birth to 14 years old. I started house sitting about 14 years ago and have taken care of all different types of animals.

I work from home so I am available to be there all day with your fur baby, if that’s what you prefer. I just bring my laptop and work phone with me! While in your home, I will always keep a close eye on your pets. I know my pup, Miley, loved to get any and all food possible, even though it makes her sick.
