Danielle watched our dog Finley while we were away on spring break. We both felt immediately comfortable with her on our first visit. He was very well cared for. I highly recommend her and will be using her again!

Daphne is fantastic with our Goldendoodle puppy. She comes twice a week to let him out and get in some playtime while we’re at work. She is reliable, trustworthy, and clearly cares about our boy. Highly recommend!

Robin is phenomenal! My cat absolutely adores her. She did such a great job with my little man for a week, visiting 2x per day. It felt great knowing he was in such great hands. She’s incredibly communicative, a great photographer 😻, and kept my place sparkling. I’m so grateful for her and will absolutely plan on having her back when I’m out of town next. Thank you, Robin! ❤️

Hanna is amazing! This is the second time she’s watched our cat and we had some curveballs this time with my cat getting sick. Hanna rolled with the punches and monitored our cat more than normal and even arranged her schedule to take her to the vet. She is super reliable and communicative and our cat loves her! Would absolutely recommend and will be booking her for any future trips!

Kelly was fantastic! She was able to work us into her day, despite the last-minute request. Kelly was very easy to communicate with and very responsive. All three pups loved her and were very happy on our return home. She came twice during the day and gave one of our dogs her medicine on the first visit. We are grateful to Kelly for the excellent care she provided and look forward to her helping us again soon!

Caitlin was fabulous. Rosie got sick right before i left and she was really patient and understanding when i went back and forth about whether I should leave town. She took great care of Rosie during the drop ins and did all the crazy cat-mom things I requested. I was very lucky to have Caitlin sit and would have her back again in a heartbeat!

About: Retired dog foster mom and dog sitter. Recently lost my beagle and miss pup time. I treat my friend’s dogs like my own and they actually encouraged me to start a profile. I like walking and don’t mind slow sniffers. I’m aware of squirrels and cats in my neighborhood and avoid them when necessary. I work full time but have availability evenings and weekends. Looking forward to long walks, tails wagging while sniffing and again meeting daily step goals. I have a small back yard and shotgun house which I own. I can crate if necessary but if your fur baby is trustworthy, I’m happy to let him or her free range guard my house during the day. The window facing the street is typically pretty entertaining. I have a doggie camera in the living room to send pictures if he/she is in the view.

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages and personalities. I have a 10-year-old Goldendoodle of my own, so I understand the importance of patience, routine, and lots of love, especially as pets get older. I grew up with dogs and have regularly cared for friends’ dogs and cats, whether that’s walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays. I’m reliable, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. Honestly, I’m always happy for an excuse to get outside and go on a walk! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine—I genuinely enjoy building my schedule around it. I’m available anytime, whether that’s early mornings, midday check-ins, evenings, or overnight stays. I’m flexible to meet each pet’s specific needs and routine. I keep pets on their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and stress-free following feeding, walk, and care instructions closely. I give them plenty of attention and playtime while respecting their personality, and I treat the home with care. I also send regular updates and photos so owners feel confident while they’re away.

Lindsay always does a great job taking care of my senior cat. He’s 17, picky, and a little bit crotchety…but that doesn’t deter her from making sure he has everything he needs including oral medicine and lots of gentle love during drop-in visits. She’s thorough and communicative. I feel very comfortable and confident leaving my old man in her care ❤️🐾

Danielle was great! We booked her 24 hrs before an event we needed to attend when we realized our newly adopted pup had separation anxiety. She stayed in our home with both dogs for a couple hours while we were gone. She reassured us that everyone was calm and just fine, allowing us to relax and enjoy our evening. She has a calm energy about her and our dogs immediately loved her. We will definitely use her again and highly recommend Danielle!

Deana was awesome. I cannot give enough appreciation for the care and love she provided for my two cats while I was out of the country. My boys are super shy, and they were comfortable enough with her to come out, get treats and cuddles, and she even put my trash bin out for trash day. Will absolutely utilize her services again!
