About: I’m a huge dog lover, there isn’t much that I’m more passionate about than dogs. I come from a big dog loving family. I’ve been a dog owner most of my life. Since I was about 8 I would study and research all I could about dogs and I’ve even trained pretty much every family dog we’ve. It was mostly the basics and cool tricks. Even til this day I enjoy teaching my pup new fun tricks I pretty much have open availability on weekends. I work through the week but I’m willing to help out with the pups through the week as well My pup has free roam in my house. Only place off limits is the kitchen but I like for her to be comfortable . My pup is crate trained but I allow her to stay out if I’ll only be gone for a few hours. Making sure the house is clean first
“I can’t say enough great things about Elizabeth. She came prepared to our meet and greet with a through list of questions about my cat and our home. She was a great communicator and kept me up to date on what was going on with my cat and sent pictures every day. She even brought in my mail, watered my plants, and took out the trash before she left on her last visit. It’s obvious that my cat loved his time with her. I won’t hesitate to use her services again!”
“Jax is great. She is reliable and we feel at ease when she takes care of our 2 sweet doggies. She is very responsive, understands what our dogs’ needs are, and always sends pictures to check in. We are so grateful to have found her both for our overnight care and our daily drop ins when needed.”
“Julie was outstanding! She took great care of our dog, she is very attentive to detail and followed every instruction we gave her (and there were lots of instructions). She was very flexible with us and was always reachable when we needed to contact her. You can really tell that Julie truly loves animals and enjoys taking care of pets! Our dog loves Julie and is always very happy and well taken care of when we return. Thank you Julie! HIGHLY recommend this sitter!”

Georga took really good care of my cat while I was away. She sent me messages and photos updating me on how he was doing. I was nervous having someone I didn’t know coming into my home taking care of my little guy, but Georga was great. I would definitely ask her back next time I travel.
Amazing cat sitter who will go above and beyond. I have an immunocompromised cat who requires daily oral medication and Lynn has been a gem with her. She has also helped me out so much with random issues like my automatic litter box shutting off after she visited, and she came back to help reset it. Truly truly appreciate her. She also gives me great updates about my babies. Have booked with her several times and will continue to do so.

Emily was fantastic with Ginny! Great communication from start to finish, and she went above and beyond handling an unexpected issue while we were away, didn’t even have to ask. You can tell she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after. Would absolutely book again!
Allison dropped in on our 2 cats while we were gone for 2 weeks on our honeymoon and we had no issues at all and felt very comfortable to leave it all to her. She was very attentive to our cats and very responsive to any messages we needed to send. We would very much recommend her to anyone needing a cat drop in visit and look forward to booking with her again!
