“I cannot express how much I appreciated the service. Above and beyond in all respects. Pretty last minute booking, very quick to respond. So sweet and kind. Top notch communication and sent all kinds of pictures. Even swept up the litter and did other extras that were absolutely more than was needed. So very appreciative. Absolutely the best pet sitter experience! Thank you so much for your time and effort. You're amazing!”
“Abbi is so sweet and was so nice with my dog!! He is a handful but Abbi took great care of him and was so kind and patient with him. She even called me to tell me that my ceiling was leaking and stayed over while the guy fixed it. I highly recommend Abbi and will be asking her for any of my pet-sitting needs :)”
“Taylor is absolutely wonderful! We never worry when she is watching our furbabies. She does a great job keeping us updated & sends us photos regularly! We know our house and all is in good hands! She is our go to sitter!”
About: Having grown up on a farm, caring for animals has always been second nature to me—especially dogs. From an early age, I learned the responsibility and joy that comes with tending to animals of all kinds, ensuring they are happy, healthy, and well cared for. Many of the pets I have today were either rescues or animals I took in to help owners during times of transition. Currently, our family dog is nearly 15 years old and requires specialized care due to multiple health issues. This has given me extensive experience in administering medications, monitoring health conditions, and providing the patience and attention that senior dogs require. Whether it’s a young, energetic pup or an older dog needing extra care, I understand the importance of providing a safe, loving, and comfortable environment for every pet. Dog sitting isn’t just about supervision—it’s about ensuring each dog feels at home, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away. With my background and deep love for animals, I strive to make every dog feel like part of the family. I work from home and run my own business, which gives me the flexibility to provide attentive and loving care for pets. Being home throughout the day allows me to ensure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for at all times. I provide a safe, loving environment where pets feel secure and at ease. From feeding and playtime to administering medications and offering plenty of affection, I tailor my care to each animal’s needs. Whether they need extra attention, a calm space to relax, or special care, I make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and right at home.
“Jen is an awesome sitter and always does more than expected. Our Westie is diabetic and has a pacemaker so he needs special care. Jen did not hesitate giving him shots and carrying him in and out. Jen took out the trash, picked up the yard, watered the plants and washed /dried her sheets. Contact Jen and see for yourself!”
“Shelby was very communicative, took great care of my cat. I can tell the difference when my cat’s needs are not met as she gets clingy when I get back. This did not happen at all. Very happy.”
“Kyla did an excellent job house sitting with my dog. She was very communicative, responsive to my texts and sent pictures of my girl through her stay. Will definitely be using her again. Thank you, Kyla!”
“We have used Ben's services for a few years now. Ben is very reliable, dependable and responsive. We know that our boys are well cared for when Ben is with them and he is our preferred dog sitter whenever we go away.”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life. I’ve always been a dog person and have a lot of experience around all sorts of dogs! My wife and I currently have 2 golden doodles along with our three beautiful daughters. I have a flexible job that allows me the freedom to be available throughout the day and availability in the evening. I can accommodate whatever your needs may be! Walks, play and attention can be guaranteed when I’m with your pups! At my home, I have a fenced in yard and two friendly dogs that can keep your furry friends company! We can visit a local park with a quiet fenced in area for the pups as well!
“Kaylee was awesome with our boys! We have a 14 year old Westie that is blind and diabetic who is very finicky when it comes to eating. Kaylee was up for the challenge and did whatever it took to feed him so he could get his insulin shot. Booked Kaylee again in a few weeks and for two weeks in the spring!”
“Zach went above and beyond. This was our first time using this service. He continously updated us with how our animals were doing and sent countless pictures. He loves animals and will use him again in a heartbeat.”
About: As a child, I had several pet dogs. As an adult, I had two great dogs for the family. Now recently retired, I occasionally sit and dog-walk two grand dogs. As a retiree, my schedule is quite flexible. I am available any day of the week. I can walk or check in on your pet at any time during the day. I'll be consistent with your pet and alter my interaction depending on your and your pet's style. If I'm at your home, I'll treat it with great respect and leave everything as it was when I arrived.
“Ann was fabulous with our elderly min pin and kitty. They both have meds and a schedule that works well and Ann was able to master that for the time she cared for our two furry kids. She spent a couple of nights and days and both pets were calm and fine when we returned. I would have Ann sit for our kiddos again!”
“As always we were so pleased with the job Kaylee did watching our babies. They never seem to excited that we are home which means they are well taken care of when we are away.”
“Amy did a fantastic job taking care of my senior lab, Frank. Each day can bring about a new scenario with him and she used all the tools and tricks to keep him calm and happy just as I would. great amount of communication and she spent a considerable amount of time with him. Highly recommend.”

“We hired Emma to house sit our three pugs for a week while we went out of town. She greatly exceeded our expectations and was reliable, friendly and trustworthy with our dogs, staying in daily contact with us and providing excellent care!”
“It was so wonderful to have Maddie watch Bella while I visited family out of state over a long weekend. Not only did Maddie keep me updated daily with pictures and what her and Bella were up to, but she was also very attentive to all of the instructions I went over with her prior to leaving. I would highly recommend Maddie to anyone looking for a pet sitter and will definitely request her services in the future.”
