“Saundra was great and was always updating me. I have a shelter dog and sometimes it takes time for her to warm up to new people. Saundra continued to care for her despite not receiving a great welcome at first :) but my dog finally warmed up to her after a day. I am thankful!”

“Ben did an amazing job watching our two dogs! It was the first time that we have left our puppy with anyone. Therefore, I was bit anxious but Ben was communicative and great with the dogs which put me at ease allowing us to enjoy our long weekend away. I was also very appreciative about his willingness to stay at our house in the middle of nowhere. I highly recommend Ben to anyone looking for a dog sitter!”

About: I have owned pets my whole life. I have owned cats and small dogs and even big dogs including Belgian Malinois in my lifetime. I will give your dogs and cats the best love and care while watching them.

“Wonderful to have Laura take care of my puppy at my home. She updated me on how everything was going and sent me pics of playtime and their walks. Felt very comfortable with Laura and would love to be able to have her watch my pup next time”

“Rebekah was great with our dog. She texted us often with updates and reached out to us with questions if she needed clarification. We will be using her again. We highly recommend her.”

“Highly recommend! 10/10! 5 stars. Charish was so sweet to our pugs and sent many updates. She was also so kind and a really respectful guest in our home. We can’t wait for her to care for our girls again!”

About: Hey there! Im on par with crazy dog lady at this point❤️ I'm dedicated to taking care of your pet(s) and making sure that they have everything they need and are safe. I have four of my own and I would adopt more if my husband would win the lottery and buy us a dog farm lol. I do not mix my dogs with your pets to ensure safety of all puppers! I will care for your pet(s) just like I would any of mine. I don't have children, I have fur babies :-) My house has a large fenced backyard with trees and is just like being in the woods. I will follow the instructions you leave for me, feed them at the times that you request, and dispense any medication as instructed. I am great with communication and will absolutely send you pictures and updates throughout the day because Id want them as well! I work from home and my schedule is very flexible, so I will be able to check on the babies all day and play as needed. If I am coming to your home overnight, I will need access to wifi for work, that is mandatory. I would love to take care of and play with your furbabies; they’re family too. I have a fenced in backyard, but I can also leash walk your pets as needed. We also have a great nature trail within 5 minutes of my home for higher energy dogs.
“So grateful to Jay for making our vacation worry free!! Especially with our senior dog, who we were reluctant to board due to a heart condition that worsens when she gets excited/nervous. Jay was very responsive to my request for a home stay, and offered a meet and greet in our home at our convenience. He and his wife were just lovely and they asked all the right questions - so we knew off the bat that our girls would be just fine while we were away! We got regular updates and pictures while we were gone and when we came home our two dogs and cat were just as happy and healthy as reported :) I think they might have even been a little disappointed to see us instead of Jay! Lol, until next time girls. And thanks again Jay!”

“Kailey is fantastic! She really cared about my kids and me for that matter! She washed and changed my sheets so I had a clean bed to crawl into when I got home. If you want someone who cares about your animals, Kailey's your girl!”

“Sommer was amazing! Well, it was a last-minute decision to go out of town for the holidays and leave our puppy. We are so happy and lucky we found her. She did multiple overnight stays for us and worked around her schedule and was very diligent and making sure that our puppy was taken care of. I definitely look forward to having her as a part of our family as needed! Thank you, Sommer for all your help and I was not worried about my dog at all!”

“JaNiya is a phenomenal housesitter, especially if you have shy animals (but *any* animal would love her!). We have two skittish greyhounds and a very shy adopted cat. Within one day, our cat was sitting in JaNiya’s lap, and our dogs were relaxed and happy. I couldn’t believe it! She has such a calm, tender presence, and you can tell she adores animals. She’s even studying to be a veterinarian! Do not pass her up! She’s the only housesitter we’ll use from now on!”

“Tony was great with my 3 large dogs. Came over the night before to meet them and go over my care instructions for them. He sent me pictures and updates throughout his stay at the house. My dogs seemed to love him. Highly recommend and would definitely use again!”

“Toni was beyond good to myself, my dogs, and my house. I was super comfortable leaving my dogs in her hands and she took exceptional care of them. I came back to my home cleaner than it was. Toni is like if a guardian angle came to dog sit for you. 🤍”

“Bradishia is our go to whenever we have to leave our dog (pit bull) at home. She sends us pictures and videos, and keeps the house spotless even though she absolutely does not have to.”
