“Leah was a wonderful dog sitter for my senior dog. She was a great communicator, sent updates, and did great with my dog’s medication & insulin injection regimen. Looking forward to having her help again soon!”

“Robin stayed in our home for 5 days/4 nights and was WONDERFUL. She communicated so well, asked all the right questions, returned a clean home to us, and obviously took amazing 🤩 care of our 5 dogs and 4 sheep. I couldn’t recommend her more highly!”

“Asheley was amazing with our senior dog and cats. Our dog got sick a few days into our trip and she was great about sending updates and making sure she was ok (and cleaning up a huge mess!). I would definitely recommend using her.”

About: I've had pets my whole life. I also worked at a dog groomers, where I learned how to care for others' dogs aside from my own. I am patient and really love animals! I have my own business where I mostly work from home so my schedule is generally up to me. I also have a dog so I have time set aside for taking care of him. I have a backyard and a friendly, calm dog to keep them company. We can also keep them in separate rooms if needed. I can crate your dog if they feel safer there.
“Emily is the sweetest person. I felt comfortable leaving her in my home and caring for my pets. I had previously been told my dogs are high maintenance, which they are, but it wasn't a problem for her. In addition, I had one dog with serious health problems (which I had to put down the day before she came) but she didn't shy away from that challenge. She sent pictures and cuddled with my dog on the couch. I would love to have her back.”
“Katie did a great job with caring for my 2 male cats for a week. One of my cats had been recently diagnosed with a medical issue. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing that Katie was staying at my house & frequently checking up on him.”

“This was our first time leaving our dog with someone other than family or friends. Leah was great for our senior dog. She sent me pics and updates which I appreciated. Our dog was happy to see us when we git home but also seemed no different than she normally does with family or friends. I know she was well taken care of. The house looked pretty much the same as I left it! We’ll definitely be booking Leah again.”


“Things were as we left them. She was Polite. Sweet and kind to all our animals. And she is a Christian women that I didn’t mind having in my HOUSE ….. When we got home the babies were happy and they got fed well. Thank you Carol for rescuing us from our sitter Troubles .. so nice to meet you MAAM . We are rebooking soon .”

“Elizabeth watched our pets, 2 dogs and 1 cat, for 4 nights in our home. She was fantastic! Everyone was happy when we got home and she left the house tidy. Our cat, who sleeps with our son regularly and doesn’t sleep with me even when my son is gone, slept with Elizabeth in my room! He’s a little selective about people so I’m impressed that she won him over.”

“Incredible experience with Hannah! I’ll definitely rebook in the future. She is wonderful and very trustworthy. I’m grateful my fur babies had such a spectacular human to care for them.”

“Shannon was awesome! Sent lots of pictures and updates of our pup! We came back to the house exactly as we left it and a very happy pup! Will definitely be rebooking in the future! Thank you!!!!”


“Cassy took great care of my 3 dogs and 2 cats! It's hard to find reliable pet sitters and she did an amazing job with my crew. My dogs are not the easiest but she didn't have an issue with them. Also, my GSD warmed up during the first meeting by leaning on her. Very rare that he even lets strangers touch him! I will definitely book again.”
“Janine was wonderful! She came and met our pup a few days before and made fast friends. She was on-time, responsible, and even brought in our mail. I need to find a reason to have Janine watch our pup again soon!!! She's fabulous!”

“Courtney was absolutely incredible! She accommodated our last-minute booking with such grace and professionalism. From the start, her communication was clear, timely, and reassuring—which made us feel so comfortable. Most importantly, our pups were so well taken care of and came home happy and relaxed. We’re beyond grateful for her kindness, flexibility, and the genuine love she showed our dogs. Highly recommend Courtney to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter!”

“Alexis is fantastic! She stayed in our home and watched our 2 large fur babies while we were traveling. She sent regular photos which assured us our pups were safe and happy. We've already booked her for our next trip.”

About: I have had pets my whole life, I love every furry pet as if it was my own! I work during the day at home and I am able to be flexible around walking times and will be able to follow any instructions. I’ve managed giving pets medication if your pet needs any type of medicine when in my care I can assist! I will enjoy helping with your furry loved one! I have one small shih tzu named Oreo she loves playing with other dogs and going on walks. She is one year old and super friendly. I look forward to meeting each new fluffy face!
