“Rachael was a wonderful sitter. She gave us regular, personal updates and sent pictures twice a day when she visited. I could really tell that she cares about animals and treated our dogs and cat like her own. It was also a very nice touch that she brought in our mail. I would certainly recommend her services to anyone in need of a sitter.”
“Katharine was amazing with Lily! I was out of town for 8 days and never once worried about whether her needs were being met. Katharine sent photos, updates and detailed notes on every walk. I would recommend Katharine a thousand times over.”
“Sarah was great to my 2 dogs. One dog is very senior, and the other has health conditions. Sarah made sure she understood each dog’s needs, and asked questions when needed. I would highly recommend Sarah, and will be using her services again in the future.”
About: I’ve have grown up in a house with both cats and dogs, very comfortable with large breeds of dogs. I take the time to get to know each animal individually. I work full time and have availability usually everyday after 5pm. I am also available anytime on the weekends as I have those off work. I will follow any house rules and will do what I can to make your pets comfortable with me being in their homes to help take care of them in any way that they need.
“Lauren came to the rescue during a really chaotic time in my life. I was dealing with a lot of major change and needed to find a sitter ASAP. My dogs can be a handful and I was really worried about a stranger coming in but she blew my expectations out of the water and I'm so grateful for that. They warmed up to her right away, and I knew right from the meet and greet that it was all going to work out. Her schedule was flexible and fit my needs perfectly. She always left me detailed visit notes and updates too which was awesome. I would not hesitate to highly recommend her services to anyone needing a trusted sitter! 😊❤️”

For sitting at other’s’ home, I try and keep the pet’s schedule as close to normal as possible! I prefer sitting in other’s’ homes just to keep things simple for the furry babies.
About: I love all the furry babies, my own fur babies are treated like my children. I work from home, so your baby would have my attention through the entire day. We would have time to play, walk, snuggle, and bond. I have a large fenced in back yard. Your baby would feel at home and comfortable in my home, they would have full access to roam and wander. They also would be allowed on the couches / beds for snuggles and belly rubs. I work from home, giving me the flexibility to ensure your pup has plenty of time and attention. I have an 11 year old son who is just as much as an animal lover. I have a large fenced in back yard. My foxy girl loves to get her zoomies out back there, and loves playing fetch. My son will love on, play, and engage with your pup also.

I take every opportunity to help an animal in need. Feeding and caring for orphaned chipmunks, rescuing turtles from vehicle demise, helping a mother duck and her ducklings cross a busy road, offering baby raccoons a way out with boards, as to be free from hot dumpsters, etc. Having pets most my life and being on the go, I understand the importance of loving pet care.

Being so small, she can either walk or go in her carrier, depending on the situation. I travel sometimes so this opportunity offers the best of all my worlds, people, pets & places. I care for pets as though a child..Love and patience. I would like to focus my services in my local area as to be more available.

“Alexis is my first choice when I need a dog sitter. She keeps her house neat and tidy and stayed in communication with me on a regular basis, eliminating the stress of leaving my dogs behind. Above all, Alexis is trustworthy, and my dogs love her. I would be happy to provide personal references upon request.”
Allison K.
“Max *loves* Allison! I was in a bind on a Friday afternoon and she was recommended by a friend. She was able to work it out to watch our boxer Max, that afternoon and evening, even with this short of notice. We spent the first 10 or so minutes doing introductions and going over Max's needs and special quirks. He took to Allison right away~confirming just how great she is! Allison sent pics and short updates during her stay as well! Not only were my husband and I able to keep our plans, but we were able to relax and truly enjoy our evening seeing Max was in such great hands! Max has had so much fun, received so much love, and grown to love his time with Allison since that first visit two years ago! She is like family to us now. Allison is flexible, respectful of our home, and truly cares about the happiness and comfort of our Max. He is always so excited to see her and happy (and tuckered out, too!) when we come home. I couldn't ask for anyone better to love and care for our Max! Thanks, Allison!”
