This is the first house sitting experience with Carolyne and I believe it went well! She was great at responding to my questions and sent me daily updates as requested. Carolyne seems very easy going and easy to work with and Moosie loved her and her kids! I would not hesitate to hire her again!

Derek was fantastic. We booked a housesitting with him on very short notice (11 hours). He was great with our 3 dogs and 4 cats and kept the house clean. Thank you SO much.

Emily stayed with our pups for 5 days at our house and was awesome!! She walked them twice a day and kept us posted with texts and pictures. The pups snuggled with her on cold days which tells us they gave her 5 stars!! The house looked great when we returned. We are all looking forward to the next sitting!!

Anabelle was amazing. When Biscuit met her during the meet and greet, he absolutely adored her. During her stay she kept me updated on biscuit with texts and photos. She even did some grooming for him. She took him on walks and even got him to run. I haven’t been able to get him to run in quite some time. Biscuit also does not eat and has severe separation anxiety when I’m gone. He ate and didn’t seem to have any issues while I was away for the week. I will definitely be using her again.

We recently adopted our dog and were concerned with leaving her so soon. Karlina was amazing with our dog, we received multiple pictures throughout the stay and I could tell our dog was well loved and extremely happy. I will continue to use Karlina anytime we need a dog sitter.

About: I've been caring for animals my entire life and genuinely enjoy spending time with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having a calm and reliable companion while you're away, I strive to provide attentive, loving care tailored to their individual needs. I work from home so I can prioritize your pets needs around the clock. My schedule can work seamlessly with puppies or small dogs that need frequent bathroom breaks. At home, I care for my own dog like family. I have a Frenchie who I absolutely adore, and her daily routine includes regular walks, playtime, and visits to the park so she can stay active and social. She’s very friendly, gentle, and loves being around other dogs, so she’s a great example of the calm, positive environment I aim to provide for any pets in my care

Monica was the absolute best!!! Our dogs loved her. I say this because our German Shepherds are very much 2 people dogs and they warmed up to her very quickly. She provided regular updates with pictures. We could not have found a better pick than Monica. When we got home our house was in immaculate condition with nothing for us to do but put away our clothes. Once again thank you Monica for taking such good care of our dogs and house while we were away. Steve and Michelle

Carrie was an amazing house and pet sitter. She took excellent care of our Basset Fiona sending videos and pictures. Also, our air conditioning went out during a heat wave while Carrie was sitting. She was super helpful in letting in the technicians to do the repairs needed and sending pictures of the progress. I highly recommend Carrie!!

About: I've taken care of pet dogs and cats since I was 12. I've also helped some of my neighbors and relatives with their pets while theywere away. Though I'm currently working full time I can take care of anyone's pets, and promptly intimate the owners in advance about my absence or when I would be unavailable. I have roommates so I can do house sitting only in the client's place, and I will do my best with all.my experience to keep their pet happy and comfortable.

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 14 years old and have always had a genuine love for pets. Over the years, I’ve helped care for a variety of animals, including cats, ferrets, and dogs through pet sitting and house sitting for neighbors and family friends. I also have a 9 year old Border Collie/Lab mix of my own, who I’ve cared for and grown up with. Pet care is something I do on the side because I truly enjoy being around animals and building bonds with them. I’m dependable, attentive, and committed to making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet sitting and walks. Since this is something I do because I genuinely love animals, I’m open and adaptable to different pet care needs and always happy to help however I can! I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for by being patient and understanding with their individual personalities and needs. With my own dog and other pets I’ve cared for, I’ve learned that building trust takes time, so I never force interaction. I let pets come to me at their own pace so they can feel comfortable and secure in their environment. Creating a calm, loving, and stress free atmosphere is always my priority.

About: I've owned & been around cats & dogs all of my life. I am very patient & loving. I have done house-sitting for pet care numerous times for family & friends over the years, before having the technology to make it easier to keep track. I adore all animals. Each one has something unique about them. I can't wait to meet yours and get to know them! Thank you for allowing me the opportunity! I work a small set schedule. I am available almost all day, every day. I work from my car a lot also, so I'm quite mobile. Animals RULE my house. I currently have 3 black cats. They are beyond spoiled every minute of every day! I am totally obsessed & in love!!!

This is our second house sitting experience with Carolyne. She does a great job with our doggie ! She kept us up to date and sent pics so we would not miss our boy too much. We did have an incident where an item was broken, but when I brought it to her attention, she responded right away and offered to make it right. We would use her again and will be. :-)
