Jordyn came through for me when I had a last minute work trip! I was able to trust Jordyn to house sit and take care of my dog Greta. Great, professional communication and attention to detail. 100% star sitter!

Michele did a great job watching our Livia while we were in CA. We were very comfortable knowing she was well taken care of. Michele took Livia for a morning walk daily and kept us updated with pictures and notes. She is highly recommended and we wouldn't hesitate to use her again.

Grace was great! She was responsive, sent videos and pictures, and made me feel comfortable. My dog got sick before we left town and she was sensitive and kind and gave extra attention. We will have her again the next time we go out of town.

Mark was MORE THAN WONDERFUL!!! I’m usually a worry wart when leaving my cats or dog, but Mark really put my mind at ease. I knew my sweet babies were in good hands. He followed on instructions to a tee, asked questions for clarification, and sent us many, many pictures of our pets. I missed my 3 cats so much, but Mark made leaving them a little easier by taking such thorough care of them. We will not hesitate to book with Mark again in the future.

Great experience with Allegra. She took excellent care of my pups and kept the house spotless. The dogs were in such a good mood when I returned, which tells me everything I need to know. Will definitely book again!

Kylee is very knowledgeable and experienced with animals. She was flexible and accommodating with my pets' various needs (2 dogs and 2 cats, 2 of whom are senior with health conditions and special dietary and supplement needs). Everything was kept clean and she was communicative throughout. All of our pets were happy and relaxed upon our return. I highly recommend Kylee and her team!

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life. Currently live with 2 dogs and 2 cats, and my family has 3 other dogs! I’ve dog-sat for many years, both staying at homes and frequently checking in. I have a natural way of connecting with animals, and I love spending time with them! During the summer, I will have availability to walk dogs, let dogs out, and care for pets during the day and evenings on weekdays. June weekdays I am available after 12, and July weekdays I am available all day. Weekend availability is not consistent throughout the summer. I live with two dogs and two cats. I walk the dogs frequently, feed them breakfast and dinner, and keep their spaces clean and safe! I monitor pets as they chew on toys, and throw away toys that could be dangerous. Managing 4 pets is a handful, but I love it!

Jacqueline took good care of my Jojo while I had to be on a work trip. She always communicated with me, sent pictures, and Jojo enjoyed being with her. Jojo is a reactive dog, and Jacqueline handled it well. I definitely recommend Jacqueline for dogwalking, sitting, etc!

Hannah was outstanding. Our schedule changed slightly at last moment and Hannah changed her schedule to accommodate and arrive to our home and be with Harley soon after we had to leave. Hannah kept us up to date and posted lots of photos of our beloved Dog Harley as well as all the walks and loving she provided. We came home to Happy puppy and very clean home. Hannah was awesome and we look forward to having her sit with our dog again in the future.

Abigail was an amazing dog sitter for our little rescue dog. He can be a tricky one with lots of separation anxiety, but Abigail was such a great support and comfort to him. She was very communicative and tried everything she could to make sure he was happy and healthy. She went above and beyond and we are so thankful to have had her as our sitter!

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I currently have an elderly Jack Russell Terrier and a spunky Chocolate Lab, so I understand the unique needs of both senior dogs and energetic pups. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs, including administering medications, following feeding schedules, maintaining training routines, and providing individualized care based on each dog’s personality and needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or a slower pace, I’m happy to adapt to what makes them feel comfortable and happy. I have experience with quirky personalities and understand that every dog is different. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I treat every dog as if they were my own and believe in providing plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and consistency. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! I have a flexible work schedule, which allows me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs throughout the day and week. Whether your dog needs a midday walk, early morning care, evening check-ins, or weekend visits, I’m often able to adjust my schedule to provide the care they need. Every dog and family has different routines, so I’m happy to communicate with you to create a care plan that works best for both you and your pup. My goal is to provide dependable, consistent care while keeping your dog’s routine as normal and stress-free as possible. Feel free to reach out with your scheduling needs—I do my best to be flexible and accommodating whenever possible! 🐾 Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. I understand that trusting someone with your furry family member is a big decision, and I take that responsibility seriously. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, and training preferences. I believe consistency helps pets feel secure and comfortable while their owners are away. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing how your pet is doing. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, senior, or still learning the ropes as a puppy, I strive to create a safe, positive, and loving environment tailored to their individual needs. I treat every pet in my care with the same attention, patience, and affection that I give my own dogs.

Grace was such a great sitter and friend to Wrigley. She provided updates, photos, and videos. Having a senior dog it is hard for them to change their routine but Grace came to our home, did a meeting with Wrigley even before the days she was scheduled for. I cannot say enough positive things all I can guarantee is I would not let just anyone stay with my German Shepherd but Grace was perfect and I will definitely call on her again.

Kaitlyn did a great job taking care of my cat while I was gone for the long weekend. My cat has a special wet food diet, and she was able to feed him on time every day. My cat is very social, and she spent time visiting with him. Shared photos and videos during every visit. I will be hiring her again!!!!
