She is amazing! Our dog was obviously pampered and much more relaxed than usual when we get back. I’ve never been so confident that she was treated well and our house was exceptionally well cared for as well. She even taught our old dog a new game. 100% recommended.

Rosemary is the best! She provided our animals a wonderful care experience and was very thoughtful in watching our house while we were away. Rosemary is also very communicative, letting us know how our animals were while we were away.

Nancy’s incredibly communicative and caring when dogsitting for our 2 small pups and my mom’s small Havanese. We felt our pups were in great hands and she was easy to work with when we had some last minute changes. One of our dogs is anxious and reactive - Nancy was thoughtful and patient in meeting him which we greatly appreciative. Will definitely hire her in the future.

Amanda was fantastic. I feel secure in leaving her with my dogs. She followed their schedule and gave them a lot of love and attention. My home was just as I left it when I returned. She is intelligent, personable, and dependable. I plan to use her for my trip in September. I can now go on my cruise knowing everything will be okay at home. I highly recommend her.

Jordan was very nice. She left my home in great condition, sent me photos of Rocco as well as updates. Unfortunately, my dog has anxiety that made him sick so we had to end the care early.

Sam is fantastic! She’s watched my 2 cats several times and is always punctual & makes sure to spend time with the boys before heading out. One of my cats requires additional medications with his food and Sam is great about ensuring his needs are taken care of while I’m away. Would highly recommend!

Another 5star review for our favorite sitter, Amber. She always does so well with our dog Cleo. She sent pictures and kept me updated. Our house was clean and exactly how it was before we left. Can’t wait to have her stay again soon!

Lee jumped in and helped housesitting my dog and cat while I was out of town. He was great! I got daily updates with photos (always appreciated). My cat and dog were both well loved and well taken care of. He was quick to respond and always asked questions. Would definitely have him watch my fur babies again when I'm out of town!

David has been a lifesaver when it comes to us needing someone to watch our pups. He’s always persistent with knowing if our dogs are on any kind of medication or if they have a schedule when it comes to feeding and letting them out. He’s very quick to respond if you’re just wanting to check in on your pups to see how they are doing with David. Overall, I would always pick David to watch our pups and he’s always so sweet and gentle with them!

Katrina was a wonderful sitter for our dog and two cats! It was clear that they all really enjoyed her company, as they were very calm when we got him. She also was very respectful of our home and communicative throughout the whole process, sending lots of photos/ updates and being very clear about her schedule. We’ll definitely have her back!

About: I have experience in taking care of both cats and dogs of any size. I have a 2 year old cat & she is my best friend! I’m very active so it will be no problem for me to provide your pet some excercise! I have also grown up around dogs my brother has fostered through the years. No matter how long I have been caring for your pet, I always provide detailed messages and provide tons of pictures when I come by. I understand being away from your pet is difficult (I’ve been there!) so I will make sure you know that they are in good hands! Families have trusted me to care for their pets for multiple nights including feeding, walking, playing, etc. I will ensure to communicate any issues or concerns with you when your pet is in my care. I make sure to communicate with all pet owners who have trusted me to watch their fur babies! I am very punctual and will always put your pet first. I have experience in caring for highly anxious pets as well - I will make sure they are comfortable and I won’t push their boundaries for them to be able to trust me! I also have experience administering injections for pets, senior pets, caring for highly energetic pets, dealing with aggressive pets, you name it! I won’t have any issues taking care of your fur baby.
