“Jenna and Aiden were absolutely a dream! My dogs were well cared for. We came home to happy healthy dogs and a house in better shape than when we left. They absolutely went above and beyond. They gave us updates on the dogs with pictures. We will be using them again!”



“Lauren stayed with our dog while we were away for a few days. She is very nice, prompt, and professional. She sent pictures and kept us updated while we were gone. We came home to a happy dog. We got back later than we expected due to airline issues and she was very accommodating by staying until we got home. I highly recommend her.”


“Trevor took great care of Romeo and our home for us, and we would highly recommend him in the future. He gave us daily pictures and updates to keep us informed. Romeo got lots of exercise, and seems to miss Trevor now that he’s not here! We would love to use Trevor again, knowing Romeo would be in great hands.”



“Evelyn went above and beyond taking care of our two dogs. She came to the meet and greet with paper and pen to take notes, which ensured me we had made the right choice in contacting Evelyn. She checked in and sent multiple updates through the time she was with the dogs. We will 100% be working with Evelyn again when we need someone to care for our dogs.”


“Michelle went above and beyond with her care of Paisley and with staying at my house. She gave me daily updates which made my trip away enjoyable knowing that Paisley was well taken care of and happy.”


About: Hi there! I’m Net.🙂 I’m the go-to gal of my friends and family for watching their four-legged kid - and I love that reputation. I’m here to help ease those worries of last-minute changes to your everyday itinerary or lessen stress when being cross-country on travel - I get that because being there has done the same! And what is more of a bonus for me to make another pal? Seems like a win-win situation if you ask me. For as long as I can remember, I have always been fascinated and compassionate when it comes to animals. They have always been one of my favorite things in this world. Growing up with birds, rabbits, cats, dogs, you name it - really helped that love grow and helped me to also learn how to be responsible, coordinate time management and even how to properly take care of them along the way at a young age. Fast-forward - I took the next step to wanting to know and learn more about them. So I signed myself up back in 2017 and took an online course to more knowledge and become a vet assistant where I later on finished my hours at a local vet hospital. I was taught valuable skills, such as patience in the field, restraint techniques, administering medication and the importance of detail, etc. I even have some background in doggy daycare! What can I say? I can’t get enough of these little guys. Learning everything from grooming and bathing techniques, to animal behavior of personalities and the ability to understand each animal’s needs and anxieties. Don’t forget the play! I’ll even put on a good jam for us too and break out in a dance party. Putting more experience under my belt in something that fills my soul and cup. I always say when you enjoy something you love it first, and it’s a job second. Hopefully, I’ll have the opportunity and chance to meet your dog, too! 🐶🤍 I’m currently working early in the morning, so I have a lot of downtime to take care of and hang out with your little one(s). Monday through Saturday, I’m free after 12:30pm and all day Sundays. Occasionally, I could have an extra day off during the middle of the week. Just shoot me a message! I will be more than happy to accommodate what I can. I have a whole pack at home myself. Did I mention that? Yup! Five in total to be exact. Ranging from all different breeds, the oldest is almost 13 and the youngest just turned 1. So keeping them occupied is definitely something we have adjusted and accommodated to. We have a whole fenced-in yard, a toy box that can't fit much left, walks are a very essential part of our daily life and activity, and we tend to rotate our pack in groups from going to breweries/wineries, to hikes and even events such as dog parks, farmers market and whatever else events tend to be happening at the time. If this is something you're interested in acclimating and a small dose over time, happy to bring them along with! Of course, the occasional cupcakes and cookies I make for my kids at home. Let me know if they have any allergies and I will be happy to bring a small bag over when I stop by! 🙂

About: I’ve cared for families pets (dogs and cats), whenever needed. This includes walks, over night stays, baths, feeding, medication distribution and potty breaks. I’m a recent kitten-mom, so I’m well-versed in this area. I’m a work from home employee (Monday through Friday, from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.), so I’d love to spend time with your pet(s) during and after these hours. I enjoy going for long walks after work as well, so why do it alone! I follow all rules set by the client and will pick up all messes throughout my visit (from their pet). If their pet has a certain amount of times needed to be let out (at certain times), I follow that plan. This goes for all other orders!


“Having Linda stay at my home to take care of my dog Moose was a great experience! She sent frequent updates including pictures to let me know how he was doing and seems to have developed a great relationship with him! I'm going to hire her to walk him as well on a regular basis :-)”


“I would love to have Larissa watch my two cats for me again! Very respectful and trustworthy. She sent daily updates and pictures which I greatly appreciated. It’s nice being away and knowing my pets and home are well cared for.”


About: I grew up always having a dog. I know how special they can be and the attention they deserve. I'm always happy to help pups get the best care possible. I have many free days to devote to pets. I am available on short notice and always happy to help out to make things easier on your animals. I have experience with dogs that roam the house as well as crate training. I also know how to handle an invisible fence versus a solid one as well as leads.

“Amanda is the best dog sitter I have ever had! She was so attentive to all of my dog's needs and respectful of his quirks and daily schedule. She kept me fully updated every day I was gone and sent lots of cute pictures and videos - I felt like I didn't have to worry about a thing because I knew my fur baby was in loving and capable hands. I recommend Amanda 100%!!!”


“Christina did a great job house sitting for us!! She took the time to ask and understand what our dog needed and what his daily routine was like. She is detailed in her updates throughout the stay and we were able to relax and enjoy our trip comfortable that she had everything under control. Highly recommend Christina for your pet sitting needs😃”


“Leo was amazing with Oliver. This was a longer trip than usual and I never worried one second. I was sent updates and photos which put me at ease. Leo was sure to keep Oliver's routine including the neighborhood play groups! Highly recommended sitter.”


“Shannon helped me out last second when I had to leave for a work trip. I never leave my dogs with anyone other than family, but I was in a bind. She made me feel so comfortable and she was great with my senior special needs rescue dogs. I plan to use her again!”


“Sarah is wonderful! She is communicative, she sent daily photos and texts while I was away. Eggsy was happy and safe when I returned home. 😊. Also, she is very respectful of my home, which I appreciate.”


“I needed a pet sitter at the last minute. Ashlie was able to stay at my home for a full 2 weeks and did an amazing job with my cat. She kept me up to date twice a day and sent photos daily.”


About: Passionate about providing exceptional care for animals, I bring a wealth of personal experience to pet sitting. My journey began with volunteering at an animal shelter during high school, fostering a deep understanding of their needs. This continued through college where I had the joy of caring for multiple dogs. More recently, I've cherished the experience of playing with and helping to socialize my sister's puppies as they've grown. I'm dedicated to ensuring your pets are happy, safe, and well-cared for while you're away. Even with a full-time schedule, I prioritize staying active and am proactive in planning my day. This allows me to reliably schedule dog walks or check-in visits to fit your needs. I'm happy to work with your schedule to find convenient times for these services. My active lifestyle means I'm always looking for opportunities to get moving, and walking a dog would be a perfect fit. For boarding, I believe in taking the time to get to know your pet through a couple of initial meetings. This ensures I can understand their personality and routine, allowing me to thoughtfully incorporate their care into my daily life and provide the best possible experience. Because every pet is unique, my primary focus when caring for your animals in your home is to adapt to their individual needs and your specific preferences. I will prioritize clear and open communication with you to fully understand your pet's routine, personality, and any special requirements. This includes everything from feeding and watering to playtime and affection. I am happy to provide exercise and fun in my fenced yard under careful supervision, offering a safe space for them to stretch their legs. If you prefer or if it's part of your pet's routine, I am also comfortable with using cages or designated areas within your home. My aim is to seamlessly integrate into your pet's life while you're away, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and well-cared for according to your exact wishes.

“Always a pleasure having Pheonix house-sit - they always take excellent care of all our fur babies. They are really communicative as needed, and our dogs and cats love them.”
