“Emma is a great sitter for my pups! She’s consistent, kind, my pups are very well cared for and I have no worries while out of town. Definitely recommend booking her!”

“What a relief to go on vacation and have Erin and Anthony watching our dog! They were always incredibly punctual and provided multiple photos with each drop-in. Erin is not afraid to text with clarifying questions instead of just assuming, which is great when our dog has medications managing a condition. Best dog sitters around!”

About: I grew up with many family dogs in the span of 20 years. I am willing to learn how the owner wants their pets taken care of. I work full time. I am willing to work on my off days which are Saturday - Monday. I am open minded and willing to learn. I can provide care at the pets home. Provide me with a list of desired tasks and I will complete them. I want the owner and the pets satisfied.
“Anne Marie was incredible! She was timely and kept us up to date with photos and notes every time she visited with our dog. Would recommend her to anyone!”

“If you're looking for a consistent, loving caretaker for your babies, Britany is your girl. She's watched our 4 cats numerous times, and we feel so comfortable knowing she's here. Britany spends time playing with, talking to, and getting to know each of our pets. We have been blessed to have her watch our lovies every time we've been gone.”

“Bradley did a wonderful job taking care of my cat when I was gone; he took lots of great pics too! Communication was great! Will definitely have Bradley take care of my fur baby when I am traveling in the future too!”

“I Highly recommend Abbi, she is very kind and understanding! I know she took good care of my kitties and they both loved her. Even the one who usually doesn’t come put for people let her hold him and cuddle.”

What a relief to go on vacation and have Erin and Anthony watching our dog! They were always incredibly punctual and provided multiple photos with each drop-in.

Alyson did an amazing job taking care of our two cats, Davinci and Snickers, while I was traveling for work. She communicated consistently and sent pictures, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. She made sure they were fed, their litter box was clean, and they always had fresh water in their fountain. She also brought in my mail and spent time playing with them. I’m very grateful for the excellent care she provided and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and caring pet sitter!

Shaelyn is amazing. My dog is “not great” with new people but she has gone out of her way to establish a great relationship with him. She has helped us learn how to support his behavior and he has been happier since meeting her. On the human end, it is a delight to have her stop in and I literally think I would be content to hire her just to visit me as she is a nice person to have drop in on a day. She is willing to engage my child who always looks forward to seeing her also. When in went away for a week it really made my time smooch better knowing I didn’t have to worry about the dog and cats at all because I had full faith she would take better care of than than I do. So kind and trustworthy- couldn’t recommend more as a pet-sitter or as a person!
