“Bev was fantastic. She stayed three nights with our cat. She had great communication and sent us photos of our cat each day. She left the house spotless. Bev was great, we will definitely rebook with her!”
“Best dog sitter ever! Stephanie took great care of my dog and made her feel like she was on her own little vacation. She sent daily photos and updates and made me feel at ease while I was away!”
“It is clear that Georgia loves animals. Our dog was well cared for, the house was spotless on our return, and she kept in touch throughout our trip. Would have back in a heartbeat!!”
“Our boys—our whippet Franky and our elderly cat Stieg—were in excellent hands with Anna for a 2nd time. Anna worked from home, from our home, so they had almost constant companionship. They both have idiosyncratic feeding needs, and Stieg gets a pill morning and night. None of this seems to be a challenge for Anna. And she also took great care of our home, leaving it at least as clean as we left it for her. We are very grateful for her services and care.”
“Our dog Kit took to Otis the moment he walked in the door. He not only took care of Kit with excellence, but our whole house, too! Otis was mature, responsible, and sweet-spirited. We would gladly have Otis back again!”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on experience, reliability, and genuine love for animals. I’ve cared for both energetic puppies and older pets who need a slower pace and extra patience. I’m great at picking up on individual needs—whether that’s sticking to a strict feeding schedule, handling clean-up routines, or giving pets the one-on-one attention they deserve. I am free most weekdays after 3pm and open on weekends. I can guarantee you my undivided attention to your pets. I will make sure they are taken care of wonderfully. In my home, pets enjoy a safe, clean, and calm space with plenty of love and attention. I follow their routines carefully to keep things familiar and stress-free. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect the space, follow all instructions, and ensure their pet feels secure and cared for. Clear communication and gentle, attentive care help build trust every step of the way.
“Andrew was great. His communication was perfect, and he gave us frequent updates and pictures of our pets. Everything was very well taken care of, and I will definitely use him again!”
“Abby took wonderful care of our senior cat! I was nervous about leaving him as he has advanced CKD and was worried our absence would stress him out and potentially lead to a crash. Abby was extremely communicative and responsive. The regular videos and pics she sent assured me my cat was doing great while we were gone! Her love of animals shines through in her communication. She left our house spotless. We would happily book Abby again!”
About: I had a dog (pitbull mix) that passed at 14 years old last year and I often took care of my aunt’s dog (redhound mix) that lived until she was 16, so I can handle senior care for dogs. I have lived with cats in the past and have experience cat sitting. I have a flexible schedule in the summertime and have a job outdoors that I can take dogs to, though they would just have to get along with other dogs if I bring them to work. My home is just as welcome to pets as it is to humans. I have a large shared (unfenced) yard space and love taking dogs on (leashed!) walks around my neighborhood and surrounding mountains/natural areas. I have cleared litter boxes before.
About: I’m a lifelong cat owner and appreciator, and have brought dogs into my life in the last 5 years (but adored friends dogs all the while)—I’ve owned two husky’s and got a crash course in dog attitudes and needs with their specific personalities. Flexible schedule—I work remotely and can generally adjust as needed to your pets care needs. Let’s work something out! With notice most schedules are possible. I follow needs and instructions to a T and offer kind and compassionate and confident care. I want pet and owner to feel happy and safe.
“Haley is very nice. She was very flexible when I needed to make a last minute change from a drop in to a full day. She sent me pictures all day and checked in periodically. I would highly recommend her.”
“Ariel was amazing! Great communication, flexible to our needs and the needs of our pets, and left our place looking sparkly clean! We highly recommend booking with Ariel and will certainly use her services again in the future!”
“Holly is a fantastic pet sitter! She was extremely thorough when she met us and our dog Wolfie. She asked all of the right questions and got to know him before sitting for us. While we were away for the weekend, Holly came to visit and take our dog for a number of walks throughout the day. She sent us updates and photos which were exactly what we asked for. We would highly recommend Holly!”
“Lillian is great! She has watched our 2 dogs and cat 3 times. She always keeps us updated and sends us photos! We always feel better going away knowing the our pets are taken care of.”

“Liz is amazing! My husband and I have never left our dogs with anyone but family so we were a bit nervous but she’s very communicative and treasuring. She also helped with our ducks which was of great help. So happy to have found someone in the neighborhood. Will definitely rebook in the future.”

Carlyan V.
“I had the pleasure of having Carlyan care for my cat, Toby, while I was away, and I couldn’t be more grateful for her help. Toby can be a bit shy and particular, but Carlyan was incredibly gentle and caring with him from the start. She took the time to make sure he felt safe, comfortable, and loved, and I could tell he was in good hands throughout the entire time I was gone. Carlyan communicated with me regularly, kept me updated, and followed all of Toby’s care instructions perfectly. Her calm and attentive nature made all the difference. I would confidently recommend her pet sitting services to anyone looking for a responsible, kind, and reliable caregiver. I’ll absolutely be calling on her again! – Jess R.”

Lauren C.
“Lauren is an such awesome dog sitter, we feel so lucky to have found her! She not only cared for our 2, somewhat neurotic, moderately high-maintenance dogs, but she also left our home in better condition than she found it. In fact, the only hint that she had even stayed was the fact that it was cleaner than when we left and dogs were tired! Lauren is super easy to work with and flexible- its truly a comfort to know your can leave your pets and home in such capable hands!”
