“Michelle and Ken were great. One of our cats is very high maintenance with feeding and medications, and they handled her wonderfully. They left our house in better shape than they found it, and they communicated with us frequently while we were away. Highly recommend!”
“Moriah was AMAZING with my two little dogs. She kept me updated, she followed my over protective directions, and kept my mind at ease for my first out of town trip away without my babies. I cannot thank her enough and I will always reach out to her for future bookings. Thank you, Moriah! ❤”
“Great, consistent communication, sent photos of my Kitty daily, along with updates. My cat is very skittish around people but Sue was eventually able to pet her, which is a big win.”
“Peter and Sarah are very nice people and I felt completely comfortable leaving my dog for 11 days with them. They do not work outside the home, so they are available most of the day. They took great care of my house (even watering my extensive garden which was above and beyond). Can't recommend them highly enough.”
“I am so very grateful that Larry was able to stay at our home and take care of our cat and dog over the holidays — with a *very* last-minute booking, no less! Our cat clearly really trusted him (which doesn’t always happen so quickly) and I really appreciated the efforts he took to play with the cat. Larry also went above and beyond in making sure that my very active dog got plenty of exercise. He took her to a variety of dog parks for hours at a time and I think she was living a much better life with Larry than she does with me! :) I got great updates when I was away and the house was clean and welcoming when I returned. I didn’t get to meet Larry (and Betty!) until the end of their stay, which further speaks to their flexibility — their original “meet and greet” was with the pet sitters I had staying at my home right before them. They were so friendly and professional, and had clearly bonded with my pets — I’d certainly recommend them to others. THANK YOU!”
About: Being a long time animal lover, I love spending my time walking and training dogs. I’ve worked at various animal hospitals, doggy daycares, and boarding facilities. I am willing to travel, and it would be a great perk if my 3 year old lab could come play or walk with your pup as well! My schedule is very flexible. I am willing to travel, and am open to schedule changes to work with your needs as well. I can do holidays as well as weekends with a planned notice. All I want is for your pet to feel comfortable and have a great time playing and/or going for a walk. Engaging shy/fearful dogs with toys and treats is always a great way to earn trust.
“Rae is absolutely amazing! We love our dog dearly, but he can be a real handful—high energy, impulsive, and incredibly excitable, especially around new people. Before we even left, Rae had him calmly resting at her feet while she worked on her laptop. She somehow tuned into his personality right away, and even taught him a few new tricks! Her updates were thoughtful and detailed, and it was clear she truly understood him in a way that was both insightful and observant. Rae is a true dog whisperer! We’ve never felt as at ease leaving him with someone as we did with her. On a scale of 1 to 10, Rae is an 11. Highly, highly recommend!”
“Anesa is great. She and Dexter got along famously. We appreciate that she took him on a hike and on playdates with other dogs over the weekend. She also gave us periodic photo updates which were greatly appreciated. We'll definitely rebook the next time we need a sitter!”
“Claudia was so fabulous with all our pets. She sent many photos and even made a lovely video photo collection that shuffled to music! She walked the dogs twice a day off site just like they are used to, fed them and took the time to play and cuddle with them. My dogs are big bully looking breeds that many people fear just because of their look. It can be a challenge to find proper care for them because of this. Claudia showed zero fear and was very comfortable, which helped my dogs feel very comfortable as well. She is a natural trainer and understands dog behavior very well. I will certainly use her again in the future! Thank you SO much Claudia!”
About: From big dogs to turtles I will love and care for your pets as if they were my own. I have pet sat multiple times for big energetic dogs, as well as timid ones and every experience has been great. Excited to meet your fluffer I am currently working full-time as a gardener (7am-4pm). I can let your dog(s) out early in the morning and immediately after work. Weekends I’m free the whole day! I will follow the exact instructions you give me to take care of your pet, no matter how detailed. I also love going outside to run around and play fetch with your pupper - making sure they get all the exercise they need.
About: I can’t recall a time in my life there wasn’t an animal around, all shapes and all sizes. I have been there assisting in home births, to training bird dogs. Years of hands on experience and knowledge to better handle and care for my animals and yours. Open to requests, fairly flexible schedule. Weekdays, Weekends, overnights or stop ins I’ve got you covered, can’t wait to build a relationship with you! =) From cleaning up messes to having them overnight, I am here to make your life easier and care free knowing your animals are safe with me.

Serena M.
“I had the chance to work with Serena in a setting where attention to detail and safety were especially important, and she stood out for her dedication. While many people follow rules because it’s expected, Serena made the effort to fully understand them out of a genuine sense of responsibility and care for everyone involved. She was consistently punctual, dependable, and recognized for going above and beyond. She also has a natural ability to care for animals and an intuitive sense for their needs. Anyone would be lucky to have her looking after their pets.”
