1. Amie F.

“This was our time having Amie stay with our dog, Hank! We did a meet and greet first we could meet and Hank could get used to her. Amie did amazing with our little old man Hank! She really put our mind at ease with updates and lots of pictures. You can tell that she really cares about your pets wellbeing. She left our home exactly how we left it. We have a second booking set up with Amie and we plan to use her in future for our fur baby!”


2. Kathryn R.

“I couldn't be more pleased with the dog-sitting service we received! From the very start, Kat was professional, kind, and very attentive to my dog's needs. I had peace of mind the entire time I was away knowing that my dog was in such capable hands. Coco was well taken care of, with regular walks, playtime, and lots of cuddles. I received daily updates and photos that really put me at ease and made me feel connected even while I was away. It's clear that Kat has a true love for animals and understands them well. I highly recommend Kat to anyone looking for a reliable, loving sitter!”


3. Lillie R.

“Lillie is wonderful with our pup Flora! We couldn't ask for a more responsive sitter, who shares daily updates with us and provides the best possible care to our sweet but sometimes complicated pittie. Flora always loves when Lillie comes to stay, and we always know she's in excellent hands. Highly recommended.”


4. Daizee-Mae H.

“Daizee-Mae was incredible with our 2 pampered pups and cat. She even took care of our 12 chickens! The dogs were able to sleep with her like they do with us and feel comfortable in their own home which is priceless to us. She loved them as if they were her own! She kept us updated with pictures and text messages on how our pets were doing. She even let the cat sleep with her. We will definitely be having Daizee-Mae stay with our pets again. Great pet sitter!”

About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, horses, and rodents since I was old enough to walk. I cared for all of our animals growing up and also several neighborhood pets as well. I have experience administering oral meds and caring for those special needs babies as well. Willing to feed, bathe, walk, and/or whatever other need may arise for your pet. I'm currently looking for flexible work outside the home. My availability is very open and I am willing to work with you on times and days as needed. Your pet’s happiness is my utmost priority! I currently live in an apartment where dogs (besides certified) unfortunately aren't allowed but I am able to care for your pet in your home in whatever way you may need.

11. Danielle R.

“Danielle was great and very responsive. She even sent photos of Archer while we were out, this was unexpected but a very nice and considerate touch. She was on time and was also very gracious and understanding that we were back a little later than anticipated. Our Dog instantly was at ease with Danielle and she took great care of him. I will definitely ask her to dog sit for us again.”


12. Paxton S.

“Paxton was INCREDIBLE before, during, and after her stay with our 4 dogs. She met us and the dogs a few days ahead of her stay so we could give her the rundown. She kept us updated and sent pictures while we were gone, and when we arrived home, it was in better shape than we left it! I would HIGHLY recommend Paxton. We appreciate her so much!”

14. Anissa R.


“Anissa did an excellent job of caring for our pets in our home while we were on vacation. I felt confident that our pets were given lots of attention and probably hardly missed us while we were gone. She followed all instructions I gave her for feeding and exercising everyone plus miscellaneous things that had to be done like bring in mail, etc. I highly recommend Anissa - you won’t be sorry!”
