“Vanessa took wonderful care of my dog Riley including spending time cuddling, going on walks every day, and sending photos and updates to give me peace of mind. We are definitely looking forward to having Vanessa watch our pets again in the future!”


“Jesse took great care of Millie while we were gone and left our home in perfect condition. Couldn't be happier with the communication and photos. Would def work with Jesse again!”


“Omar did an excellent job cat sitting for us. He made sure to keep us informed at least once a day as requested and focused on spending time with our cat during our long trip. Omar also kept our house in good condition. I especially appreciated that he made sure to be there when we returned to discuss and get/give feedback.”


“Katie is absolutely amazing!! My pup was very happy with her and her family of furballs. Katie did way more than she was obligated too while I was out of town. She cared for my pup like he was her own. She sent me photos and videos of their adventures. Great communication. Highly recommend, as I hope to use her in the future.”


“Bridgette is amazing! She’s our go to sitter because she’s mature, responsible, and will play endlessly with our very high energy puppy. We are so grateful to have connected with her and Ruby loves her!”


“Didn’t feel like it was the first time meeting! She was flexible with my schedule and planned fun outings for my dog. She loved him despite his quirks. And he came home exhausted! Would highly recommend Sharon to anyone looking to leave their baby in a loving home.”


“Katie was amazing. She initiated a meet and greet! She stayed at my home watching my beloved puppy Alabaster. She kept me updated all throughout the time with pictures and updates. When I returned my puppy was more calm when I returned than when I left. I will absolutely have Katie watch Alabaster again.”


About: Although at this moment I am a cat mom, I had a family dog since I was 5 years old I walked, fed and medicated, and I frequently dropped into my neighborhood houses when needed to feed and play with their dogs while on they were away. I have voluntereed at 2 different shlters beofre, taking care of both cats and dogs. Although small, I am strong and can handle medium and large sized dogs with relative ease, even energetic ones. I have the stamina to do longer walks if needed, and will feed, water and, if needed, give medication accurately when left with clear instructions. With my current life, I can't have a dog of my own, so I will live my dog mom dream through your perfect pup. I have a fairly flexible schedule, and the farther ahead you book, the more likely it is I can make your appointment fit. The best times to book are Tueday and Thusday morning, Wednesday afternoon and evening, Saturday night and Sunday morning. Other times are available, but at least a one day notice is needed to ensure availability. I do not have a car, so I am limited to pets within a fairly short radius and need enough notice to find a way there. I don't offer services in my home because my cats don't like other animals, however if you need me to come by and take care of your fur baby, leave a list of written instruction somewhere easily visible and whatever I need like food/medication, etc. somewhere easily accessible and I will handle the rest. If you want me to being any cat toys to play with them, please let me know before the visit.

“Charlotte did a fantastic job getting to know our dog and his routines. We had complete peace of mind leaving our dog with her in our apartment for a week. They are best friends now! Thank you, Charlotte, looking forward to having you back.”


“Teri made me feel so comfortable leaving my babies knowing they were in such comfortable hands. I got daily updates and came home to some very happy kitties :). I will definitely use Teri again! It is rare that I don’t worry about my cats while I am gone, and I truly didn’t worry at all this trip, which is a true treat for me.”


“Jo was an incredible sitter for my two girls, one a young pup and one a senior. She provided updates and photos and was great with handling the special needs of a senior dog. Highly recommend!”


“Just excellent. Will stayed at my home to watch my boys (2 pitties) and he was communicative and shared photos the entire time I was gone. It looks like my dogs had a blast. I’ll definitely call on Will for help again and it’s such a wonderful peace of mind knowing my dogs were in good hands.”


About: I have the unique perspective of a college education and multiple careers that focused on animal behavior, welfare and care. I grew up working on my families farm and riding horses, before going to school for Conservation Biology, entering field work and research, and since January 2022, being a Zookeeper! I love all animals, big and small, domestic and exotic, and have worked with them the majority of my life. I personally have always had cats, reptiles, rodents and fish as pets, but have always been relied upon by neighbors, friends and family to take care of all their furry (and scaly) friends as well! I also have years of experience with animal training as well, working with both North American River otters and black bears. Training is of special interest to me and while I do have years of practical hands on experience, I hope to pursue official certification soon too. I'd love to give your pets the care, affection and attention they deserve! I'm currently moving to a part time position within my career to allow for more flexibility so I'll have plenty of time to give love to all of your pets. Currently I'll have Wednesdays and Thursdays available, as well as most nights Mom/Tue/Fri/Sat/Sun after 4:30 pm. I do not have the space to board pets in my home as I live in a one bedroom apartment with my partner and our two cats. However I am very outdoorsy and active and would love to take your pet for long walks or hikes in all their favorite places, and I'd be more than happy to provide outstanding care within their own homes!

“Bianca was an amazing house sitter for us. She showed our pets the utmost care, sent photos, and kept us updated. She's also very friendly and fun to talk to. She was also punctual, which is very important. We feel very comfortable calling her for our next house sitting!”


“Sarah was incredible. She watched our seven year old dachshund mix Nestlie on our wedding day and it was SUCH a relief knowing that Nestlie was in Sarah’s hands the whole afternoon and evening. She even came to pick Nestlie up at our wedding venue after we were done taking photos and then took her back to our apartment to hang with her the whole evening. Nestlie can be a little nervous and isn’t great around other dogs, but Sarah came to meet Nestlie a few weeks before she would be watching her and they got to know each other and all of Nestlie’s quirks! We would have her watch Nestlie again in a heartbeat!”


“Fatima has been wonderful!! Spending an entire long day with a young and very active, feisty puppy is not easy, but she did a great job. She is also very respectful and manages his behavior in a way that coordinates with my approach. That consistency is so important for a puppy, so I am pleased to have found Fatima.”


“Alexa was a great dog/house sitter. She communicated and sent pictures regularly and the house looked great when we returned, and most importantly, our dog seemed happy and healthy!”


About: I've loved dogs for as long as I can remember. Nothing makes me happier! You will truly never meet someone more excited to care for your pet. I am enthusiastic, warm, friendly, and I go above and beyond in any job I do. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from puppies to seniors. My schedule is flexible, so I can move things around to accomodate you and your pet :D. I am free on both weekdays and weekends. I have found in the past that caring for pets outside of their homes often causes more stress, on top of the fact that they are trying to learn to trust a new stranger. For this reason I much prefer to care for your pets in their own homes. I love instructions, and will follow your schedules to a T. I want nothing more than to keep your pet safe and happy (in that order)!

Sofia Q.
“My husband and I have known Sofia Q for years. We were looking for someone we could trust with our cat, Misty and our house. We reached out to her when she was starting high school and were thrilled that she consented. For the last five years Sofia has been our pet and house sitter and we couldn't have asked for a more responsible person. She even sent us photos of our cat when we were away. We were so sad when she left for college but are so proud of her accomplishments. We give our highest recommendation to Sofia.”
