“Kinan goes above and beyond as both a sitter and dog walker. He takes exceptional care of my German Shepherd, Zara, and it’s clear how much he genuinely loves animals. As a house sitter, he’s the best I’ve ever had—he left my home spotless, was so respectful of our space, and spent so much quality time with my girl while I was away. I can’t recommend him enough—10/10!”

“Sam took excellent care of our dogs and home while also keeping an eye on our other small creatures. You can book with confidence with Sam. Super communication! She is very easy to meet and sent us updates and pics. We came home to happy dogs! Highly recommend!”


“Ally was on time and communicative throughout the booking and pet sitting process. She went over and above to understand our pet’s needs. Moreover, she listened to our specific concerns and was very accommodating . Will definitely use her again!”
“Allie communicated very well, was conscientious and reliable in caring for my dog, cat, and home. My dog is stranger fearful and leash reactive but warmed up to Allie quickly. Everyone seemed happy and well cared for upon my return.”

About: Animals bring me peace and joy and I just can't help but want to be around them to support them. I have raised dogs and other animals throughout my life. I have had cats, fish, hamsters, and even hermit crabs. Animals are always full of life and hope. I have two dogs now. A mother and daughter. It really shows me how deep animals can feel. I love them. Pet sitting is my priority. I spend 24/7 at home unless I am at the park or running errands. I can devote ample time to pet care. I have a fenced yard and two small dogs. They go for walks, trips to the park, as well as off road fun. Like hiking, kayaking, and trail walks.
“Very happy repeat customer! Cleo did a great job of updating us and sending pictures and videos while we were gone. Came home to find both of our boys very happy and well loved.”
About: I've taken care of various dog breeds such as Shitzu, Pomeranian, Chihuahua, Golden Retriever, Poodle, Labrador, Jack Russell, Beagle, etc. I have experience taking care of puppies to senior dogs and cats. My family loves pet and I've grown up with dogs in the house. I am a full-time stay at home mom. I also have a high energy puppy dog who loves to play to keep your dog a company. She’s very friendly and loves to socialize with other dogs. I have a concrete and big fenced pet-friendly yard. My husband and I are both pet lovers and we’re partners in taking care of them. We have a dog of our own named Chase. We always treat pets as part of our family. 🥰🏡🐶
“Angie is fantastic! She took care of our home and our sweet boy, Rosco, just as she would her own. 10/10 recommend. She is very kind, helpful, prompt, and caring. I especially enjoyed getting updates and pics of Rosco :)”

“Antoinette is responsible, attentive, and friendly! For my first booking with her, she watched my cat for five nights. She set up an in-person meeting beforehand and paid careful attention to his food and play preferences. She also sent photos updates with each meal, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. She even brought in a package for me without having to ask. I’d happily book her again!”


“We love Whitney! She watched molly during our wedding and was fantastic! Molly really seemed to take to her, she was taken on multiple walks, excursion and interacted with other dogs. I feel like molly had a mini vacation while we were gone and had more fun then when we’re normally home! Will definitely be using Whitney again!”

“Allison was very flexible and accommodating as we were booking on relatively short notice and were new to the area. She was very communicative and took great care of our dog and cat the entire 2 weeks she was in our home. Would definitely recommend!”

“Erin is awesome and my three dogs love her! She works with dogs regularly, so I knew she would be able to handle the chaos. 😂 This was the first time she watched them, and since it went well, I hope to hire Erin again!”
