“Michelle did a great job in taking care of my dog Bruce and taking care of my house. When I returned home, Bruce was healthy and happy. Plus, my house might have been little bit cleaner than when I left. Michelle is highly recommended.”


2. Karcyn S.

“Karcyn is an amazing pup sitter! She took excellent care of our Goosey girl while we traveled for 5 days. She sent us lots of pictures and updates. She also took great care of our home too. We would gladly have her back anytime to take care of Goosey,”


3. Lily Q.

“We thoroughly appreciated the attention Lily gave Fern during her stay. We felt so comfortable with her from the beginning. Lily offered to come by the house twice prior to her stay just to get familiar with Fern. She sent several pictures and updates throughout the weekend and left our house very neat and tidy. We have already scheduled another stay with her and will not get the usual anxiety about leaving Fern with a sitter at all! Thanks, Lily!!”

10. Jessie E.
About: I have had all kinds of animals and have been around even more. Your pet is your family and I will treat them as it. I can take on a few afterwork needs m-f, and mainly any full days worth of care could be on the weekend. I can be somewhat flexible but I do have a full time job. I make sure the pet(s) have attention, playtime, frequent potty breaks, and food/water depending on how they are. (If a dog needs scheduled feedings or if the can handle a full bowl all the time).


11. Katie D.

“Kelsie has cared for my animals for many years. I have always loved having her and she takes the best care of everything. She would be the best sitter!”


17. Sydney N.
About: I've taken care of animals for as long as I can remember. I give the animals all the love and playtime they need. I enjoy being around them any chance I get. I love seeing them while I deliver. I'm currently working for Domino's. I work evening shift at 5pm and I get off between 7pm-1am. I'm available all day until 4:30 the latest. I take care of my pets by letting them go out on a very long leash since we don't have a fence but if my customer does, I'll just let them out every few hours for the bathroom when needed.


18. Kerri H.
“Kerri did a fantastic job dog sitting my Rhodesian Ridgeback, Hattie. She was super caring, sent me regular photos, and was able to help out on short notice. She took her for a walk and was all I could have asked for. Would absolutely use again!”


19. Corri B.
“Corri is great with pets! She loves them and would take care of them like her own. If you need a pet sitter, I would definitely go with her.”


20. Michele C.
“Michele has cared for two very different dogs of mine and known just how to handle their very different personalities. She is comfortable with big and small dogs, hyper as well as timid, and can even handle dogs with medical and bathroom issues. She has had many of her own dogs over the years and has had experience with puppies all the way through elderly dogs. She is also very comfortable with my cat. My current dog is terrified of most people and somehow still adores Michele. She will always be my first choice dogsitter!”
