“CJ took excellent care of Eliza, despite her getting up to some naughty puppy shenanigans while we were gone. He was proactive and did exactly what we would have done to take care of our girl. He sent lots of photos and regularly updated us on how she was doing. She seemed happy and well taken care of when we arrived home. He left our house extremely clean and tidy as well. We’ve already booked him for another upcoming trip!”
“Kate was lovely and Pancake clearly had a great time and was very relaxed with her. Senior dogs can be challenging in their own way but Pancake was in good hands! She picked up this booking last minute as we had a change of plans and was easy to communicate with to coordinate as well as sending cute updates. Sorry about our kitchen sink misbehaving. 😩”
“Austin did an amazing job watching our dog Max! Max can be anxious for us to be gone, and Austin did a great job getting to know him, making sure he was comfortable, and sharing updates with us. Will definitely reach out to him again when we travel again.”
“Kimberly was incredibly responsible and communicative. Emmy (my siamese mutt) is an excellent judge of character and when I arrived home she was in excellent spirits, having obviously received a tremendous amount of attention and love. I will absolutely be working with Kimberly again, and I would encourage you to do the same -- she's terrific!”
“Zoe was great and even tough girl Mia loved her! She was very communicative, followed our house rules and was an absolute pleasure to interact with.”
“This is our third time booking Ghazal, the second time for an extended period of time and we could not be happier. Ghazal genuinely adores our cat and caring for her and we get regular updates. We feel completely comfortable with her staying in our house. Will 100% book her again and again.”
“Aimee was beyond terrific. She took such great care of both Jasper my super finicky outdoor cat (Mainecoon), that doesn’t generally warm up to folks upon meeting and Cooper, my super high energy, Australian Shepherd. She took Cooper to the park every day and even took him to the beach to play. She got Jasper to come in and eat and play twice a day which is next to a miracle. She sent pictures throughout the day to show how much fun the pets were having with her. They both went on a walk with her and seem to really love her.”
“Thank you for taking such good care of our baby! All the mindfulness aboit providing medication and communication was so appreciated. And going above and beyond to help when we got stuck up north was so kind. Thank you !!!”
About: I have loved animals since I was a little girl! I have 2 adorable cats at home with me for 5 years, I have cared puppies, kittens, and dogs (small and large) for my friends and families over the last decade. I live just a few minutes from parks like Anderson Park and Daniel Park. I really enjoy taking care of animals, they are my friends and family. I'm dedicated to providing the best care and attention to your beloved furry babies. Whether it's giving them extra cuddles, playtime, or ensuring they have a clean and comfortable environment, I'm here to make their time away from you as enjoyable as possible. I am a data scientist working from home with flexible schedules, my wife also works remotely. So you will definitely at least have one of us stay at home for companion! My days include many playtime with my cats and leisurely strolls with dogs through the city. I can be pretty flexible to take care of your pets' needs. I'll begin by thoroughly familiarizing myself with your pet's routine, ensuring their daily needs are met consistently. Your home will be treated with the utmost respect, maintaining a clean and safe environment for your furry babies.
About: I grew up on a cattle ranch, so taking care of animals has been second nature for as long as I can remember. From feeding livestock at sunrise to caring for dogs of all sizes, I’ve developed a strong sense of responsibility, patience, and connection with animals of all kinds. Back home, I have a Great Dane named Walter—so I’m very comfortable with large breeds as well as small ones. I’ve done numerous house sitting and dog sitting jobs over the years, and I always treat each pet like part of the family. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or just a cuddle buddy while you’re away, I’m here to make sure they feel safe and loved. Pet care is still a big part of my daily routine. I can swing by mid-day for a play session, potty break, or feeding—whatever your pet needs to stay happy and on schedule. If it’s early morning walks, mid-day play sessions, or evening feedings your pet prefers, just let me know. I’m flexible and happy to work around your pet’s schedule to keep things consistent and stress-free. I take the time to ensure each pet gets quality attention and care, even during busy days. In your home, I follow all instructions closely and respect your space as if it were my own. I prioritize safety—keeping gates locked, leashes secure, and routines consistent. I also make sure pets stay comfortable, whether that means sticking to feeding schedules, administering meds, or just being a calm, reassuring presence. I’ll keep you updated regularly, so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands. Please expect plenty of fun photos of your pet sent your way!
“John took excellent care of Lucy and the house while house sitting. Sent lots of updates and pictures so I felt I knew exactly how everything was going while I was away. Would absolutely love to have John take care of Lucy the next time we need to go out of town.”
“Jeanette was amazing. Jake was being difficult and wouldn’t come in but Jeannette wouldn’t give up and go to bed till she finally got him in at 3AM. I felt bad and told her to go to bed, but she wouldn’t until he was in. He is usually good for her and comes in before dark,, but not this time.”
“Always reliable, patient and understanding. She is so good to my little cat and takes really good care of her. Thanks for consistently helping us out!”
“Holly was fantastic as always! She left our house better than she found it and we came home to a happy, relaxed dog and cat. Thank you, Holly!”
“Carolina was amazing! I really appreciated her attention to detail - from the moment she showed up with her own form to fill in for the meet and greet, to inquiring how often we want to be contacted, and to the way she left the home (spotless!). She’s amazing, our dog clearly had a great time. We will absolutely be using her again!”
“Dana was so kind, attentive and patient with our puppy. We really appreciate her helping us last minute and being flexible. Our puppy had the best time playing with her!”
About: I've taken care of dogs for 35+ years. My dogs have lived to 16-17 years, so I am familiar with pill schedules and tailored meal plans. I moved for work and secured dog-friendly housing (we're a package deal). Currently, we go on daily walks and outdoor adventures. I have safe spaces so the dog can "take a break", but snuggles are always available. My daily routine ensures your dog will go for a walk every day. Your dog's walks will include time to sniff and explore. I will respect your dog's wish/desire to be pet and cuddled. For example, my dog's morning routine includes nose to tail body rubs and a kiss on top of the head. However, that's the end of "snuggling, petting, cuddling" for the day. :-D I have a fenced yard for my dog that he has access to when needs it. He has his crate that he uses for naps or just to hang out in a comfy spot.
“If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! Robyn was absolutely incredible. She took amazing care of our dog while we were away and made the whole experience easy for us. She also kept us updated with tons of adorable photos! Communication was a breeze – Robyn was quick to respond and so easy to talk to. We could tell Yara was in safe, loving hands the entire time. Highly recommend to anyone who wants peace of mind while traveling. Thank you for going above and beyond!”

“Susan is a responsible and loving dog owner. She always made sure vaccinations were up to date (that's how I learned about the mobile vet service!) to keep her pups health. Cody and Tucker had their daily walks and meals - they even dined "al fresco" on the patio. When my dog heard Susan's car, he would jump over and wait for her at her front door. She took my dog along for walks in the nearby forest/park. When I couldn't find Speckles, I'd walk over and pick him up from her house.”
