“Kristin patiently tolerated my anxious pup who greeted her with 30 minutes of barking upon daily visits. She knew what to do to create trust and followed troubleshooting suggestions from us. Kristin had 4 fur baby personalities to attend and did so with competence and grace. Excellent communication and photos provided! Do not hesitate to hire her; she'll always be my first choice for in-home care.”

“Our dogs loved being with Victoria while we were away on a trip! It was our first time having someone watch them in our house, but it went really smoothly and the daily updates provided us with the peace of mind that they were doing well. We would love to have her watch our dogs the next time we are away!”


“Autumn took great care of our 3 "somewhat challenging" dogs. We've booked her for more upcoming trips and feel confident our pups will be in great hands with Autumn!”
“Catarina is awesome! She stayed with our cat and dog for 3 days and provided cute pictures and videos. You could tell they were very well cared for while we were gone 😊. We will definitely ask her to house/pet sit for future trips!! Five stars for sure! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

“Stephanie was great! I can tell my pet was well cared for and I also came home to a house that was just as clean (if not cleaner) than when I left it. I will happily use her again!”

About: Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve had dogs in my life. From growing up with family labs to currently caring for my own black lab named Mae! I love giving dogs a life full of fun, adventure, and exercise—whether that’s walks, hikes, games, or just quality playtime. As a former collegiate athlete and current physical therapy student, I bring energy, patience, and knowledge of safe movement, which helps me care for both energetic pups and senior dogs alike. I value treating every dog like family and strive to make each visit engaging, safe, and full of love for your precious pup :) Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a physical therapy student completing much of my coursework remotely, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and pet care throughout the week. I am often available on weekends and have availability during weekdays as well, including evenings. Being active and organized, I thoroughly enjoy incorporating pet care into my day and can provide dependable attention, exercise, and companionship for your four-legged family member When it comes to caring for dogs, I value giving them my full attention. From the moment I meet them I want to make sure we are getting outside and being active. I find so much joy in making sure their cup is filled whether that’s us hanging out or going on long walks:)
About: Ive taken care of animals ever since I was young, starting on my grandparents farm I grew up learning how to take care of many types of animals and would love to continue to do so in my free time. I have had an amazing opportunity to help take care and watch some of my close friends beloved family members and I would lovw to so the same for you. Making sure you have nothing to worry about and that your family member is being taken care of. I currently work full time Monday-Thursday but my weekends are free to spend time with your furbaby as much as needed. I can offer time for afterwork walks if needed as well. Maintaining a consistent routine to help minimize thier stress including, feedings, walks, fresh water, cleaning litter boxes, picking up waste, etc. Willing to work with your pet and there routine to ensure they are comfortable and cared for.
About: Retired but a “young” 61 . Lost my dog this year and can’t have pets where I currently live so I’ve been getting my cat and dog fixes watching family and friends pets ! I’m a new Grandma so expect your pet to be spoiled and get lots of attention - love if they want to sleep with me . I can do overnight, day sitting or drop in at your house . Will meet you prior and check my references- I will do a good job for you and you can relax while away ! I’m retired so my time is my own -7 day a week availability-and I can hang with your pet all day if wanted - will walk and take outside to potty Sadly my dog passed recently- I’ve stayed at my sisters many times with her dogs —one is a senior and one is a puppy - big fenced yard and lots of in and out . They are welcome in my bed - love to snuggle with them
About: We are caretakers for all our family and friends fur babies when they need help. For hours or days. We lost our golden doodle to cancer and miss having another dog around but aren’t ready to commit to our own yet. Let us spoil yours! Between the four of us we typically have great flexibility in our schedule. We do work outside of the home so the pups need to be able to withstand 3-4 hours alone. We have a large fenced in yard where they can roam freely or play with balls and sticks or just lay on the sun if they’re lazy 😊
“We could not have left our pup and our home in better hands. Deb was great with Jasper, and that's not an easy feat, as he is a big, rambunctious, and sometimes unpredictable guy. Our weekend away was stress free and we loved getting the photo updates from Deb. We are already dreaming of our next getaway, and Deb will be the first person we call to dog and house sit for us again.”

“Camille stepped up in an urgent situation and helped me out with my rescue dog (who is not fond of strangers) for a weekend stay. She worked her magic, was super patient and eventually created a routine for my baby to follow. Even with a skittish temperament, my dog responded to Camille's nurturing disposition and both made it through the weekend unscathed. Would definitely recommend Camille to other households!”

“Samantha was terrific with my quirky dog. She learned his vibes and personality quickly and worked well with him. She kept me informed, cleaned up after herself, and I would absolutely hire her again.”

About: I have had dogs my entire life and am currently in advanced obedience and agility with my golden retriever. I love to play and walk with our dogs. I am a retired medical professional and feel comfortable giving any medications. I would love to care for your dogs and keep them safe and happy while you are away. I have taken care of friends and relatives dogs. I am retired so I can stay with your pet while you are away. My husband will be taking care of our dogs while I pet sit. I will take great care of your pets. Follow all instructions. Make sure they are fed on time and exercised if requested. I am responsible and dogs love me!
“Katie is the best. I knew when I met her she was going to be great. Both my kitties had meds and she was able to administer them well. She sent pictures and kept me informed of all that was happening with the kitties. I highly recommend her.”

“We couldn't have asked for a more loving, responsible individual for Opie. Emma provided overnight house sitting and care for our boy and our home. We were incredibly grateful to have found her and will definitely ask her again when we need a companion and sitter.”

“Eden has been an absolutely exceptional dogsitter. Our dog was immediately comfortable with Eden (which does not happen with everyone) and I felt safe leaving her with Eden right away. Eden sent thoughtful and consistent updates and pictures and followed all instructions with care. We will definitely request Eden again for our future dogsitting needs!!”

“Trevor was great! Did a quick meet and great with our dogs and they took to him really well. He did a overnight stay for us and was able to stay a little later in the day for us to not have to stress getting home right away.”

About: I have a very wide range of skills when it comes to caring for pets from dogs and cats to small animals. For four years, I had my own dog care business in which I boarded and walked dogs. For the past couple of years, I have spent my time studying and learning medical care of animals. I also have experience of working at an animal shelter with cats and dogs of all ages, behavior needs, sizes, and breeds. I have experience handling large breeds, aggressive animals, and animals with anxiety. I believe that my wide range of skills and experience with pets of all ages will make me a great match for caring for your furry friend! I'm currently working part-time at an animal shelter. This position requires about 15 hours of work per week, primarily on the weekends. Besides these shifts, I will devote all of my free time to caring for your pet! I have many parks near my home and am willing to take your pet on long walks. I would say that I am lenient with the animals' range in my own home as I will allow them on furniture and in any room.
“Olivia was amazing. She was able to take care of our pets on short notice and was able to accommodate a quick meet and greet as well. She shared regular updates and truly went the extra mile in caring for our dog. Fantastic job and I would recommend her to anyone that needs pet care.”

Madelyn was wonderful! She took excellent care of our pups while we were on a week-long family vacation. She was communicative and very responsive, and she sent daily updates and sent photos, which we really appreciated. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our fur babies were in such good hands while we were away.

Anna was great! Very communicative throughout the process; prior to arrival and during her stay, sharing updates/pics of our babe. She was very courteous and respectful, taking great care of our home. And best of all our pup Archie loved spending time with her! Would highly recommend!

I can’t recommend Serena enough! She took excellent care of my dogs over Labor Day weekend and made the whole experience completely stress-free. Communication was great from start to finish—she kept me updated with regular messages and sent cute pictures that really gave me peace of mind while I was away. Not only were the dogs clearly happy and well cared for, but my home was left neat and tidy, which I really appreciated. It’s such a relief to know that my pets (and my home) are in good hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Serena again!

Lauren is absolutely fantastic! Our dog Harvey had the best time with her - including a field trip to get a pup cup! In addition to taking great care of Harvey, she was so respectful and thoughtful when it came to staying at our home. Would highly recommend Lauren to anyone looking for great care for their pup!!
