“First time leaving any of my dogs with a petsitter that I hadn't known beforehand! Jessica was wonderful and accommodating for my nervousness and my pups timid nature. I regularly got photos and videos of Razz having an absolute BLAST with Jessica and her dogs. I wouldn't hesitate to book her again, and I know my pup had a wonderful experience.”
“Whitney is amazing! She was so sweet to our high energy dog, took her on lots of walks, spent lots of time outside with her, and even ran with her! We would use her again without hesitation!! Seeing fun pics of our puppy everyday while we were away was so reassuring that she was in great hands!! Thanks Whitney!!”
“This is the first time I've left Gunner overnight with anyone and Scott and Sarah are phenomenal. I would leave my dog with them 100x over they are wonderful. They let gunner sleep in bed with them even though he's 95 pounds (sorry haha) and they really accepted him like he's their own family. I highly recommend them!”
“Jessica watched our 2 mini Aussiedoodles over a long Thanksgiving break. She provided pictures and updates regularly, and they were very well cared for. We are so thankful to have found someone so trustworthy. I would definitely go to Jessica again!”
“Aimee sat for Enzo several times and he always had a great time. Aimee is great at providing pics of how he’s doing and includes thoughtful notes. I strongly recommend Aimee to anyone looking for a pet sitter, they will be loved and cared for while you’re away!”
“Katelyn was amazing. Very attentive. Reached out to us everyday with pictures and videos. Great communication throughout the whole visit. Our dogs loved her. Very easy to work with. We did an initial visit then she agreed to watch on the spot. April, her dog, is amazing as well. We will definitely go with her again!”

About: I have owned dogs for my whole life. I have also fostered for the past 5+ years. I am well suited for any type of dog at any age. I am comfortable with special dietary needs, medications, Baths, walks, hikes ect. I am a stay at home mom of 11 year old twins, also animal lovers. I am self employed and have a very flexible schedule We do not have a fenced in yard however we live on a very private 12 acres with plenty of space for walks, hikes and adventure. I have 3 very well behaved dogs that know the rules! I do have crates and small playpen fences if required and am happy to make any necessary accommodations.
“Meghan is so thorough and helpful. She cares so much for our Dex and assisted with all the little extras around the house too. So glad to have a trusted resource like Meghan!”
“Another wonderful stay with Maria — Moxie loves getting some outside time in the backyard and Maria does a great job of keeping us informed! She always feels like very trusted hands. Thanks Maria!”
“What a great experience for my standard poodle! Jocelin was responsive and sent several pictures and texts about my girl during her stay. Drop off and pick up were also a breeze.”
About: 20+ years of pet care experience. In high school and college I worked as a vet tech, and at a boarding/daycare/grooming facility. I have also worked with livestock at numerous farms and horse boarding facilities. I now have 1 dog, 3 cats, and a horse of my own. I love building relationships with pets (those that want it) or giving space (for the more nervous and anxious ones). I pride myself on being able to accurately read each pet and knowing what they need. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule which makes pet sitting amazing! I am able to watch pets while you're away and keep them on whatever schedule best works for them. I'm also available for mid-day let-outs and walks! I make sure each pet is comfortable around me. If they are happy, energetic pets- I make sure to help them get their energy out so they look forward to seeing me! If they're more reserved and nervous, I make sure to go slow so they do not see me as a threat and I do not try and cloud their space, while also reassuring them I am a safe person.
“Martha was wonderful with Gelato. She gave him a lot of attention and care. He enjoyed their walk to the local 1971 coffee shop. Martha is a great sitter. I will definitely request her services in the future.”
“Another great stay with Heather! Our doodle loves her so much and enjoys staying with her and his BFF China every time. It’s like a great vacation for him and he always comes home energized and happy.”
About: I have helped my mom run a pet sitting business in high shcool! I’ve been around animals my whole life from small to giant size. I will run and play ball with your dog and am not afraid to get slobbery! I have a great sense and understanding of animal behavior. Also due to my job and college degree in psychology I am experienced and knowledgeable in ABA training. So I would love to assist in training appropriate behaviors in a puppy or an older dog with behavioral issues so that I myself can grow and learn as well as your dog. Animals are my passion and joy in life and I believe they will love me just as much as I’ll love them! I’m currently a home maker so I will be home full time with your pet and available all times of day for walks and visits. I have a 3 year old and an infant that will accompany during visits and walks. They are very gentle and friendly with pets as we have had many animals in their life. I have a fenced in yard but we also going on daily family walks. We have two dogs who are very friendly and two cats who typically stay hidden during the day.

Kacey P.
“To Whom It May Concern, I have known Kacey Payne for 22 years, through the association of her mother. Over the years, Kacey has become a very close friend to my daughters, and I too, have spent many hours enjoying Kacey's company. If you are looking for a smart, talented, and diligent candidate, Kacey is the perfect match. She has a sharp mind, positive attitude, great work ethic and a real passion for helping others. Throughout the time I have known her, she has shown me time and again that she is a confident and motivated leader, with amazing potential. Kacey has looked after our pets while we were on vacation. She was proven to be responsible, enthusiastic, and consistently exceeded our expectations by taking our dogs for long walks or played with them even though this was not asked of her. I am confident Kacey will be a valuable asset to any organization and I recommend her without reservation. If you require any further information please don't hesitate to contact me. Sincerely, Dawn Plaster”
