About: There’s nothing more stressful than finding someone to take care of your pets while your away. As a member of your family, you want to know that they will be well taken care of while you’re away. Let me give you peace of mind knowing that your animals are being taken care of, the way you would. As a owner of two dogs, I know how to properly care for animals. I love all animals, and there’s nothing I like more, than knowing that your pets are safe and being taken care of while you’re away. I would give your pets the same care, love and affection that I would give my own. I would love the opportunity to meet and care for your pets. I currently work part time. So I have a very flexible schedule. Lots of time for checkins and walks. Does your pet like looks of potty breaks. No problem. I’m happy to let them out as much as needed. My home has a 6ft privacy fence. My yard is completely enclosed. I always monitor the dogs from the window or go out with them. I also have two very friendly pups.
“We had a wonderful experience with Eleanor. She was caring, reliable, and treated our dog like her own. We felt completely comfortable knowing our dog was in such good hands. I highly recommend her and would definitely use her services again! ❤️🐾”
“Lukis was fantastic with my cat! Very experienced with cats, and sent regular updates during boarding. My cat was so happy to stay with her! Will definitely recommend Lukis and look to book with her again.”
“When we took our beloved Westie to meet Annmarie we instantly knew that she would take excellent care of him. He is a senior dog and is on medication for various conditions. She took all of our instructions seriously and she followed them to the letter. She kept in contact with us and gave us updates and photos every day. She treated our dog like it was her dog, and that made us happy and reassured us that we could relax and enjoy our vacation. If we could give her a six star review, we would! Thanks Annmarie. You are amazing!”
“Our dog is extremely shy and fearful of nearly everything and every one. So were were nervous about taking him to a dog sitter after years of him being watched regularly by a friend. We should not have been nervous. Breanna took wonderful care of our dog, and he came home happy and healthy — and healthy is a big deal because new situations sometimes make him so nervous that his digestive system gets disrupted upon coming home. That did not happen. Breanna sent us regular updates and pictures of our boy, and was extremely flexible with a couple small changes to our plan. I highly recommend her, and would definitely book with her again.”
“Great sitter! She’s attentive and provides great, safe , patience and caring environment for animals. My dog loved her! I appreciate that she also is very flexible with sitting arrangements.”
“Responsive, caring, and always had great daily updates for our dog. She really takes the time to ensure they are well cared for and have fun. Would recommend Rachel and plan to use her in the future.”
About: My son is currently interested in starting to earn money. Mom will accompany him but he will be putting in the hard work. He is very driven and will be extremely reliable. We will be available after school hours to walk your pet! We will also be available on weekends for more options to walk your pet. We have had animals our entire life. Mom grew up on a dairy farm. Very passionate about giving your pet the best treatment and teaching my son about hard work.
“Gabrielle was a wonderful sitter for Biggie! I was ecstatic he was able to have a playmate and stay active with Gabrielle's dog. Feeling very at ease knowing that he'll be in good hands in the future too.”
“Christopher took care of my dog, Maggie, while I was away during a difficult time. He was responsive and provided updates and pictures throughout the day. I’m so glad I was able to find him last minute before my trip.”
“We had the best experience possible boarding our rescue dog Maisie with Sam. She gave her so much love and attention! She also carefully followed all our instructions about medications, feeding, and behavioral issues. We received daily updates and cute photos. Sam is so knowledgeable about canine behavior and even did some training with Maisie. We felt so confident that our dog was in excellent hands and could enjoy our trip without any worries.”
“Laura was great with my dog Blue. Blue seemed to really enjoy just hanging out in the fenced in yard and lounging on the patio. Laura made sure she gave my dog plenty of attention and love and shared lots of pictures. We will definitely use Laura again!”
“Lindsay will be my dog's sitter from now on. She did an absolute AMAZING job with my fur baby, Deuce. At first meet, Lindsay was very welcoming and if time wasnt a constraint we could've talked for hours. While vacationing I got pics and updates from Lindsay and Deuce was adjusting well. Her home is well suited to take care of your pet. The fact that she has other pets really gave my confidence in her care. Deuce fell asleep in the car ride home....SO I KNOW HE HAD A GREAT TIME. OF COURSE I WILL USE LINDSAY AGAIN...NEXT MONTH FOR STARTERS....THANKS AGAIN...GREAT JOB LINDSAY!!!”
“Maritza and Daniel are amazing! Bowi stayed with them for 6 days They made sure we felt comfortable. Maritza is an excellent communicator. She sent me lots of pictures and updates everyday. She made me feel confident that Bowi is safe and Loved. I can't recommend her enough! We will leave our precious Bowi with her again 100%. Thank you Maritza and Daniel again for everything.”

I can tell my cat was happy and well cared for. Azariah has a mildness that settled my nerves when I dropped Petey off. This was my first time using a pet sitter. She sent pics and updates that helped me not worry at all and just enjoy my vacation. I would definitely use her services again.
Jeanette took such good care of Maverick, he had the best time and came home happy and healthy! She even accommodated special requests for him at the last minute. Great communication from start to finish, with lots of updates and photos. Will definitely be rebooking.
I had never left my dog Darcy with anyone except my stepson, so I was worried how she would react. Vanessa was great. We met up with her twice before the booking, so she wasn't a stranger to Darcy. Vanessa sent pictures, which really helped put my mind at rest. Thank you.
Kayla was incredible with Suko. I could tell he was well taken care of because he kept begging me for treats and to go outside, haha~ I love it because I wanted him to have a vacation too while I was away. He's a senior pup now and I get nervous/anxious leaving him with anyone, but family (couldn't this time because all my family was on the trip). I would trust Kayla again with Suko any time. She sent photos every day and kept me updated. You can't go wrong with her!
10/10 he took Evie in on a few days prior, that right there is enough for me, he sent beautiful pictures of my Evie. Not only that but Ekow is able to take care of hyper active dogs, who need to do alot, and sometimes have trouble listening. That is what you call a sitter, will definitely book with him again!!
Yelitsa did such a wonderful job with our dog Mia! I received so many updates, at least 2 a day. She did well with administering my dog’s daily medication and keeping up with our regular feeding schedule in her home. Overall, my dog looked super happy every day and Yelitsa went above and beyond with exercise, treats and play time. We will definitely be booking with her again and I’d recommend her to anyone in need of pet sitting!
