“Alyssa was great with our dog during a long weekend stay! She was very communicative, sent lots of pictures and update, and our home was in perfect shape when we returned. We’ll definitely work with her again.”
“Chase was such a good sitter for my dog! I was initially worried because I was looking for someone last minute, but Chase put my worries at ease. He was communicative with me when I was away, kept the place clean, and also watered some plants! Would definitely hire Chase again.”

“Stephanie did a great job house sitting for us on short notice. The dogs, the cat, and the house were all well taken care of. We got updates and photos daily and felt comfortable right from our meet and greet. We'd definitely book again!”

“William was really good with Otto and took great care of him. He was really receptive with what I was looking for in a dog sitter and went above and beyond. Will definitely choose to have him doggy sit again!”

“Tally is so sweet and kind! She kept great communication the whole weekend and really loved and cared for my three dogs. The house looked awesome when I came home too! Will definitely use her again.”

“Cristen again is amazing. We have two Great Danes who demand attention and Cristen steps right up and gives it. We got new place and Cristen did great in it and kept it clean and great. Our kids love having her and are always pooped out when we get back. So glad we found Cristen!!!”

“Maureen was amazing giving us updates and sending pictures so we felt at ease even when we were across the country from our Lily. She also left a super sweet note and magnet she’d made. Will definitely be rebooking.”

“What a great experience! I had Vanessa stay at my place for 5 nights with my 2 dogs and it was great. I got pictures of my girls and updates daily so communication was excellent! My girls were happy and healthy when I got home and my place was clean. Will absolutely be booking again! :)”

“Evelyn did a great job taking care of our dog and our home while we were away. She is very quick to respond and kept us updated with many pictures of walks, meals, meds, and naps. We will definitely be booking with her again.”

“Sage was amazing! This is the first time we used her as a doggie sitter for our baby Gracie, she was so great taking care of her and we look forward to using Sage again. In our opinion, she is the BEST!!! 🩷😊🐶”

About: I have loved animals my entire life and have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats. Growing up, I regularly walked all the neighborhood dogs, and today I help care for my friends' pets by walking their dogs and house sitting for both dogs and cats while they're away on vacation. I currently have two cats and a senior dog, so I'm comfortable caring for pets with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. Whether your dog loves a long walk, a slower stroll, or just some extra attention and companionship, I'll make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I treat every pet like they're my own and understand how important it is to have someone you can trust. I love animals of all sizes and look forward to giving your furry family member the care, exercise, and affection they deserve. I work full-time in wholesale flowers and finish my workday around 2:00 PM, which gives me dedicated time each weekday to care for pets. I'm available Monday through Friday from 2:00 PM to 6:00 PM for walks, drop-in visits, and pet care. I usually spend my afternoons outside, and I often find myself wishing I had another dog to join me on my walks! My own senior dog prefers her walks later in the evening, so my afternoons are the perfect time to give your dog the exercise, attention, and companionship they need. Whether it's an energetic walk, playtime, or a visit to check in on your cat, I'm excited to help care for your furry family members. I believe pets thrive when they have a consistent routine, a clean environment, and lots of love and attention. At home, I make it a habit to check my pets' food and water every day, clean their bowls regularly, keep their litter box fresh, and maintain a clean water fountain with routine filter changes. I also make sure my senior dog has fresh food and water, a clean feeding area, and that everyone is happy, healthy, and comfortable. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow their routines as closely as possible because I know consistency helps pets feel safe while their family is away. I'll make sure your pet has fresh food and water, plenty of attention, exercise or playtime, and a clean space. I'll also keep an eye out for any changes in behavior or anything that seems unusual and communicate with you right away if needed. I treat every home with respect and every pet as if they were my own, and I'm happy to provide photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
“Sam is always so reliable when I need a last minute sitter for my cat, Benny. Her update photos warm my heart when I’m out of town and missing my little guy. She’s very trustworthy and always does an excellent job.”

“Audrey was awesome! I am always super hesitant to leave my 2 year old Frenchie with anyone but I won’t hesitate to book Audrey again! She sent many updates, followed instructions, and took great care of Benny! Thanks Audrey.”

“Kelly was amazing- super communicative and sent lots of pictures while house sitting my cat. Left my place in great condition and was super flexible to her specific needs too.”

“Tina was excellent! I knew my puppy and seniors were in good hands. Pictures and updates were provided too. It’s clear that Tina loves what she does and cares so much for animals! Really so happy!”

“Grace showed up on time and made sure that my cat was fed and taken care of. She was also so sweet and understanding to how shy my kitty was. Would definitely recommend her pet care services!”

Sage is a repeat care provider for our dog. She is thoughtful, caring, and loved by our pup! Sage went above and beyond when caring for our pup for the last 2 weeks. She was very communicative with in-depth daily updates and pictures which made us feel comfortable during our trip away. She even cleaned our home to make our return comfortable which was beyond what was expected. We greatly appreciate Sage!!

Charlie was amazing! She took excellent care of my pets and let me know how everything was going. My dog looked so happy in the pictures and not stressed like she has been when I’ve been gone in the past. My cats actually played! I have two cats that are not very friendly or playful but the pictures showed them playing! It was awesome. I highly recommend her if you are looking for someone to take wonderful care of your critters!
Tara is so patient and kind with my dog who has issues warming up to people in his home! We were feeling like we couldn’t travel because he’s been so anxious, and she has been working with him getting used to her on walks, and getting him comfortable when she comes in the home. She has been very understanding, calm, and kind with him! I am so thankful we found her, and for how understanding she is of his quirks - even when he barks in her face. Thanks for all you are doing to help him! Also, she takes amazing care of our less quirky small dog and cat, too. She has great communication, and sends photos, and I came home to calm pups and a clean home, she is wonderful!

Brooke is an outstanding sitter. She watched our pup Valentina while we were out of town this summer, and I didn’t have a moment’s worry about our fur baby thanks to her excellent care and communication. Brooke updated us daily with an informative message and pics that made it clear Valentina was not only being taken care of but also living her best life! And Brooke was the perfect house guest as well. I am so grateful we found her and hope she is able to watch Valentina for all our future travels.

Mesa is fantastic! This is our 2nd time having Mesa dog/house sit for us. She spent a week looking after our 2 large 6-year old lab/shepherd pups. One of our boys has special needs due to a partial acl tear. Mesa handled all their needs with perfection. She communicated with us daily and left the house spotless. We'll definitely look to Mesa for future needs.

Kaitlin took such great care of my pets, and my apartment! I’m always nervous to have someone new stay in my space and care for my animals, but Kaitlin’s caring and kind demeanor made me feel at ease :) She sent me updates and pictures daily, and was easily able to follow all the instructions. I know my pets really enjoyed spending time with her, too. She also left my apartment tidy and clean, which was so nice to come home to after a long trip.

So grateful for you Isabella, thank you so much for helping me out with my Rosey girl. Isabella came through for me last minute, was always on time, very respectful, sent me updates, and rosey was so happy to have her. Please don’t hesitate when thinking about booking her for her services. Class act, very professional.

Karilou was amazing! She stayed at my house for three nights and it looked like no one was even there. My dogs were happy and well cared for. One of my dogs is very shy with people and, with Karilou’s calm and patient personality, Nugget was able to feel comfortable with her. She sent me daily updates and pictures, which really helped since this was my first time leaving them😊🐶🐶❤️

Martilia stayed with my dog Bailey over the weekend and did an incredible job. She stayed with Bailey a lot of the time inside, hung out with her, let her out to use the bathroom regularly, kept to her feeding schedule and gave her medicine. She appeared to actually enjoy hanging out with Bailey and sent me pictures of her hanging out with her in the living room and let her hang out with her in her bedroom . I really appreciated the extra care given to my senior dog who likes the attention and care! I would definitely utilize her again and recommend her to others. She also left the spare room in excellent condition and even did the sheets and made the bed before she left, which was totally unnecessary but very helpful and kind.

Olivia was a fantastic pup and house sitter. She watched my rambunctious Australian shepherd for a few days while I was out of town. Olivia is a great communicator and a very experienced dog sitter. Also left my house in great shape for my return. Definitely recommend.

Alyssa was awesome. She took the best care of our BIG 90 lbs. boy Beans while we were on vacation. He took to her right away and she provided pupdates daily- gave us such peace of mind. We will absolutely ask Alyssa to watch Beans in the future and would recommend for anyone wanting a great pup sitter while they are gone.
