“We always feel comfortable leaving our Max and home in Nita's care. He is relaxed and we get updates. When we get home, the house looks like we left it and Max is never anxious. We highly recommend her!”


“First time having Maya sit for me and I will definitely be calling on her again. One of my dogs had an episode and she was quick to let me know what was going on. She even made the phone call to the vet to tell them what happened to see if he needed to be brought in. The situation was stressful for me being out of the country, but I felt so much better with her there keeping an eye on my boy.”


“We are so grateful to have found Laurie! She took such wonderful care of our dogs while we were away—attentive, thoughtful, and incredibly kind. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such capable hands. Laurie provided great updates, was always communicative, and went above and beyond to make sure our pups were happy and comfortable. We came home to relaxed, content dogs and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter they can truly trust. Thank you, Laurie!”


“Marisella was wonderful. Both Oliver and Libby enjoyed her company. Marisella took great care of my pets and home. She sent to updates and pictures multiple times each day.”


“Jada was a joy to have as a sitter for Pearl. She kept in touch with me and let me know how Pearl was and what they had been doing. I loved getting the pictures too. The house was clean and tidy when I got home. I hope she will be available the next time I need a house/dog sitter.”


“My baby Coco hates leaving the house but hates being alone for sure! Mya has been very flexible and a good doggy sitter for Coco, especially since he can be very defensive. :)”


About: My sister and I are a team when it comes to caring for your pets! I’ve loved and cared for animals since I was 7 years old—training dogs, volunteering at shelters, and spending time with both dogs and cats has always brought me so much joy. I specialize in boarding, training, and house sitting, while my older sister offers drop-in visits and dog walking. Together, we’re here to make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for—like they’re part of our family. We’re a sister team with open and flexible schedules, ready to give your pets the time, attention, and care they deserve! I’m currently a college student on break and fully available until late summer or fall, while my sister has a consistent year-round schedule. Together, we make sure your pets are always in good hands—whether it’s boarding, training, walking, or drop-in visits. My neighborhood has plenty of sidewalks for safe walks, and I have a fenced backyard with room for pets to run, play, and relax in the shade. I also have a small cage and a bed outside available if needed. Inside, pets will enjoy a cozy, air-conditioned home where they’ll be safe and comfortable

“Madison is very sweet, responsive and responsible. She did everything I asked her to do and went above and beyond by washing the linen she used in the guest room. She took excellent care of my dog and my home. And she captured the cutest photos of my Jubilee! I can't wait to have her again.”


“Nashi was phenomenal! One of our pups wasn’t feeling well right before we left, and it’s always difficult to leave when something like that is going on. Nashi stepped right in and took excellent care, provided updates, and calmed my worried mind. We absolutely recommend Nashi and will be requesting her care again in the future for our pups, too.”


“Absolutely loved having Macie house sit our dogs! She was on time, attentive, and kept us updated with tons of great pictures throughout the stay. It was clear our dogs felt loved and well cared for the entire time. Highly recommend Macie to anyone looking for a trustworthy and thoughtful sitter!”


“Corrina and Lucy bonded quickly which is amazing because being a rescue, she is always “on guard”. We felt very comfortable leaving our home and our fur baby in Corinna’s care! We will be requesting her services again!”

About: I have taken care of a variety of animals but have spent time taking care of dogs for the most part of my life. I have experience with all dogs and even aggressive dogs. I have spent the last 6 years grooming dogs and working with horses. I'm a college student with a part time job at a foster home where I take care of children. So I'm home majority of the time and would like to spend my free time helping out people with their animals I currently have 2 dogs in my home, which is a spacious two bedroom apartment, complete with lots of nature trails to take walks on in a dog friendly complex and a room designed to be a animal room so that clients dogs feel safe and secure if they don't like other animals. I am a college student working as a TA for the theatre department and I work in a foster home over night on weekends. So most of my time is spent at home working or walking around. I enjoy animals and choose to spend all my free time with them I have seen it all. I have cared for horses, dogs, cats, snakes, lizards, pigs, cows and more. I personally have administered my personal dogs their vaccinations (all but rabies and heartworm of course) which I was trained to do by a vet. I am also a very playful person and enjoy playing with dogs one on one. From fetch to tug of war.

About: What makes my services unique is my ability to provide both companionship and medical care. I’m comfortable with administering medication, assisting with rehabilitation, and caring for senior pets who require more attention. I believe that every pet is an individual, so I tailor my services to meet their specific needs, ensuring that they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away. I currently work Full Time as a Veterinary Technician pursuing my license as a Veterinarian. I alternate weekends at my job, so some weekends, I will be completely free to care for your fur babies. I treat every pet I care for as if they were my own, ensuring they’re not just safe but also enjoying their time with me. Whether it's taking them for regular walks, keeping their routine as close to normal as possible, or simply cuddling on the couch, I believe pets deserve love and attention just like any family member.

“Kirsten was such a great pet sitter for my dogs. One of my dogs struggled with boundaries around potty habits for the first few days but Kirsten was able to turn that around very quickly. I came home to happy and healthy pups that were very well cared for. The house was clean as well when I returned. I’d definitely book Kirsten again. She communicated well and sent pictures of the dogs so I knew they were well. It was a great experience overall.”


“Amber is amazing!!! Such a good person!! She went over and above looking after our little girl!! Can’t thank her enough for stepping in when we needed her the most!! Highly recommend, Amber!!!”


“Thank you for taking care of Charlie!”

“My three dogs were well taken care of with Jacquez while I was out of town. They were happy and content when I got home which is all I ask for!”


About: I've had dogs and birds as pets my whole life. I understand the different amounts of attention different pets require and that pets will make messes. I am happy to play with your pets, but will still clean up their messes. I am working a full time job and am most free in the afternoons and evenings. My schedule is flexible and can move things around to check in on pets more often and in the mornings. I don't take care of pets in my own home. In a client's home I will make sure they are played with, if wanted, kept fed, clean, exercised and safe.
