“We are so glad we found Brigid. Our dog, Roscoe, was comfortable with her right away when we had our meet-and-greet. Brigid asked good questions and took notes. She and her house are well-suited for a little dog visitor. She has a nice, fenced-in yard. Her couch is a cozy spot for napping, snuggling and looking out the window. Brigid stayed in touch with us leading up to our trip and while we were away. It was so fun for us to hear and see pictures of how Brigid and Roscoe were spending their time. I felt that they had developed a special bond and I can't wait to book Brigid again. I think Roscoe feels the same way.”


“Stephanie and her whole family was sweet with my dog. She gave daily updates and even sent videos/pics I highly recommend if you're in a pinch and have to go out of state via airport!”


“Maegan and her family were great sitters to my pug Sofia! I was sent plenty of pictures and I know she was cared for and loved dearly during my long 12 night trip away. Thank you for caring for her!”


“I had never left my pup with anyone but Christopher did a great job of checking in daily and sending photos showing my pup having a great time.”


“This was our first time boarding with Sue, but hopefully not our last! She was very communicative throughout, and accommodating when we had to switch our pick up time. She sent multiple updates and pics/videos while he was with her. Our normally anxious dog felt at ease right away and even survived a thunderstorm while there. He normally won’t eat at first when he is away from home but he ate his dinner the first evening there and throughout the weekend. Would definitely rebook with Sue!”

“Chelsea and her partner could not have been better pup hosts...and I mean that!!! They have a solid dog sitter operation and I felf my Bilie girl was well looked after between great communication and their genuine love for furry friends!!”


“Lori was so amazing with our bernese mountain dog and accommodating when our flight got back at 10pm. This is our second time we left our pup with Lori and she is just the best !”


“Anna was INCREDIBLE. Incredibly competent and kind, I immediately felt safe leaving Zephyr with her and her fiancé. She was flexible with our timeline and responded immediately to anything I asked. She sent updates consistently and Zephyr had a wonderful time! And when I picked her up Anna sent us home with the SWEETEST little doggy bag with a report card, actual photos of Zephyr that immediately went on the fridge, and a bone. I genuinely cannot overstate how wonderful this experience was. She thought of things I'd never consider and provided such an organized, professional and personalized experience that I'll be sure to remember. If I ever need a sitter again I will 100% be going to Anna.”


“Violet always loves visiting Korinne and has a great time there! She takes great care of our pup - even when Violet needed a bath after embracing her beagle nature and rolling in smelly stuff outside!”



“Kyle is an outstanding sitter. Everything was perfect for caring for my pup. I will use her again every time I need a sitter in the immediate area.”


About: I had dog walk for number of years and had work seasonally at a pet company before. I am confident I can take care of your dog while you ar away. It is going to be a part time gig for me, I can do most evenings and weekends; During weekday, I can start my services after 6pm and anytime at weekend. I will do my best to ensure I follow your instruction and provide on time updates of your dog and most importantly the pet will have my full attention during my services.

“Jayla was so great! She was incredibly responsive and provided helpful updates. I felt so comfortable leaving our pet with her. You could tell she really treated our dog like he was a part of her family. We will definitely be rebooking with Jayla in the future. Highly recommend!”


“Cheryle is a great dog-sitter. Her house is well set-up for a little dog, with low couches, ramps and lots of cozy spots. Her dachsund was a great companion for my dog, Roscoe. Roscoe came home calm and happy after 5 days at Cherlye's. He was on a variety of meds for a sore back and she managed all those well and took great care of him.”


“Nat and her husband were an absolute pleasure to work with from booking to pick up. Having just moved to the area, I was worried about finding a sitter who would love my little guy during a 9-day vacation. We could not have asked for a better sitter. ❤️🐶”


“Emily was an excellent pet sitter! Our pup has a new best friend! She kept us informed with plenty of updates and sent lots of great photos. We will definitely use her again if we need a sitter. Thanks Emily!”


“Vera kindly agreed to host our Piper with less than a week’s notice. She was super communicative, sending a reminder packing list prior to the visit, as well as detailed updates and lots of photos. Piper had a terrific time with Vera and returned home a happy pup. Thank you!”


“Extremely good pet sitter. My elderly dog stayed over thanksgiving break and I got frequent updates/pictures. Very intuitive about my dog’s wants/needs. You would struggle finding a better person to take care of your animals, especially if you have a dog with a big personality.”


“Alex and her family were incredibly loving and attentive to my senior pup’s needs. Lots of updates and pictures. Their home was warm and inviting. My dog had a wonderful mini vacation. We will definitely book again.”


“I feel very lucky to have found Catherine and her family to care for my pup for a couple days. I could tell from the moment I met Catherine she was a dog lover and that my dog would be loved and well taken care of. I would recommend Catherine with no hesitation at all!!!???”



“Maggie has watched two of our dogs on a regular basis and is excellent with all dog breeds and ages! Maggie is great communicating with me when attention is needed and is also great about updating me with pictures of our pups vacation! She is very professional and works with our very busy schedules. I trust her with any of our dogs as her dogs are VERY well trained and perfect play mates for my puppy! Our dogs are so tired when they come home and that is evidence of a perfect time with Maggie! We are very lucky to have found you!!”

Our puppy Coda had an AMAZING time!! Thank you so much for the love and care you gave him. We loved all the updates and photos sent, too. Definitely recommend ❤️

This is our second visit to Stephanie’s house and we continue to be impressed! Our first visit was great and now we know that wasn’t a fluke! Stephanie continues to provide excellent care and updates throughout our vacation. We continue to feel very comfortable leaving our dog in her capable hands.
