“Michael was great with our kitties (as always). The kitties were timely cared for and were also treated extra special with treats and playing at each visit. We trust Michael with our babies and will continue to seek his services in the future!”

“Chelsea was amazing! My dog loved her and as a new pet parent of anxious shelter dog it was a great relief knowing Pepper was in such good hands. Chelsea sent me great photos and updates of her visits and she also gave me lots of helpful tips about dog care.”

“We couldn’t be happier with our experience with Jennifer! She took care of our cat, Hudson, while we were away, and she was incredibly accommodating with our last-minute changes. Her thoughtful updates were adorable and reassured us that Hudson was in great hands. She went above and beyond to make Hudson feel comfortable and at ease during our absence. We would absolutely book with Jennifer again in the future! Highly recommend!”

“Walter was so courteous and showed up on time every day and I could tell me animals were taken care of. He even offered more support for the animals for an extended period when my travel was impacted by the snow. He came 2x a day for my dogs and played with them and even stayed extra time s few times, and was able to give them medications and feed them, along with my cats as well. He was also very communicative, and followed instructions. I can tell my animals are happy. I will be using Walter again!”

“Ashley came over to meet Pippa prior to the drop in visits. She’s so pleasant and has experience with rescue dogs. She follows up with pictures after each visit. I highly recommend her.”


About: I’ve been fostering dogs for the last four years! Even during my crazy college schedule I made it a priority to spoil all my foster pups! When I was too busy for a full time foster, I’d take the local shelter dogs on walks for a shelter break! Currently looking for a full time position, so my schedule is super flexible! Let me know whenever you need help and I’ll reply as soon as possible. I always make sure to stick to the sidewalk when walking pets and maintain a safe distance from the road and from other animals! It’s also crucial to me that I leave your home in the condition I found it, with no mess left behind!
“Adele was great. Was there when I asked her to be. Took care of the dogs and fed the cats. And she came on Thanksgiving. Reliable and friendly. I would definitely recommend her!”

“Jordyn was extremely easy to work with and understanding when circumstance changed. Wish we’d been able to complete our reservation with her as scheduled, but again, appreciate her humanity and understanding when we needed to cancel. Round recommend Jordyn to be others, wholeheartedly.”

“Henry is so amazing! My dog is fearful and tends to growl and look scary and he was confident, calm, and able to help get my dog to go outside. I appreciate him jumping in in short notice to take care of my two dogs. He did a great job. I plan to use him anytime in the future that I need a dog sitter.”

“Hannah is awesome. Flexible, consistent, great with the pets. She is great at communicating and filling us in on how everyone is doing when we are on trips, and leaves you with a peace of mind that is invaluable when you are away. We will continue using her for both our dog and cat needs,”

“Catherine was wonderful to my kitties and a joy to work with. She’s reliable and resourceful even when my locks were finicky. She went above and beyond to care for my long haired cats, and I am so grateful to her.”


“Tom was super responsive and took great care of Mr Tibbs last weekend. Tibbsy took a little while to warm up, but Tom was able to use his charms and cat treats to make him comfortable during this first interaction.”

I’m attentive to safety, use proper leash handling, and adjust each walk to your dog’s energy level—whether that’s a relaxed walk or something more active. I’ll also send updates and photos so you always know how your dog is doing.
“Jacquelyn was so great! Our cat was well taken care of and in good spirits when we returned home from a 6 day vacation. We had Jacquelyn come in for an hour each day. Everyday she wrote an amazing update and sent photos. Thank you so much for the care!”

Olivia is exactly what I always look for in a sitter - responsive, timely, flexible (I had to keep changing my departure time and she was totally understanding!) and most importantly, so great with taking care of my cat, Franklin. Traveling is so much more enjoyable when I know someone is taking great care of him and treating him like their own. Would totally recommend her to anyone!
