“Annie was great with our two little pups and our senior cat. She was very tentative to their schedules and routines. Follows directions and requests as well. She was the first (of a few) that our older dog actually warmed up to, immediately. Communication was great, with updates constantly. We'll definitely have her house/pet sit again!”


“AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING!! I’m so incredibly grateful for Allie! She made my sweet girl feel so comfortable while we were away for a weekend. Allie is so kind, experienced with dogs, and keeps you updated throughout the stay! She loved my dog like her own, and I feel so comfortable and confident leaving my Sopa in her care. I couldn’t recommend her enough!!! :)”

“We are so lucky to have Jillian to care for our pets! Prompt, professional, thorough, communicative, supportive, and animal- sensitive : there are not enough superlatives or stars to reflect our gratitude for Jillian’s work.”

“Eleni was great and super responsive. She was able to accommodate a last-minute request, and was great with our two large pups and their differing needs. She was communicative throughout and they were in high spirits when we returned!”


About: I’ve had a dog and 3 cats growing up. I am constantly around dogs and they all love me. My friends and neighbors have trusted to watch their animals when they are away. I just graduated college and looking for a fun job for over the summer! I have lots of free time so I am available to help with your animals whenever you need! I have one cat at home but he’s not the biggest fan of new animals. I love playing with animals and making sure they use most of the energy.
“Erin is amazing! For the first time ever Willy Wonka was calm when we left for our trip. Erin sent pictures and updates daily which made our trip that much more enjoyable knowing that Willy was in capable and caring hands. We will definitely be contacting Erin again in the future!”

“We needed a dog sitter last minute and Carol quickly accepted! Out Cody loved to hang with her all day. I got multiple updates throughout the day. I truly appreciate the care Carol gives to our pup and will most definitely ask her to sit for us again in the near future.”

“Absolutely amazing! I was worried leaving my girls at first but they were in great hands and very happy! She sent great updates and my pups were sad to see her go. Will 100% be hiring her again!”

“KiAnna was willing to arrive by 6:45 AM so we could depart by 7:15 AM. She took great care of Chester and we will be asking her to house sit and take care of Chester again!”

“Callan was great house sitting for our two dogs for several days. He arrived a few mins early to the meet and greet and the dogs warmed up to him right away. Would highly recommend.”

“Rebecca is absolutely amazing. This was the first time I left Woodie with a sitter besides my son. He was nervous at first, but she came over several times to make sure he was comfortable. She knew everything to do to make him comfortable. He did perfectly when we went out. I was not worried at all because I knew she had it handled. I of course will be using her anytime I want to go out.”

“If you’re looking for a reason to book someone-look no further, you won’t be disappointed in Joanna. Joanna and her daughter Amelia were fantastic! I was given updates about my pups consistently making my week vacation worry free with everything at home. Joanna works from home mainly so she was with my dogs throughout the day, major plus. They walked one of my dogs regularly and followed my wishes to not walk the older one, *due to arthritis he can’t do walks. My elderly dog who really doesn’t like people, especially young kids cuddled with Joanna’s daughter, Amelia! That was a sight to see, if she didn’t send the photo I wouldn’t believe it. Heartwarming to see that my angry at life dog was happily cuddling up with someone other than me, what more could you ask for when away from them? When I came home I could very much tell my dogs were taken care of with love and my house was in better shape than I left it for them. I will definitely be using Joanna and her daughter again for future trips.”

“Carla was exceptional with our dog Molly. The care Carla gave our dog was outstanding and the daily communication and pictures eased our minds while we enjoyed some time away. Without a doubt we will be using Carla again.”

“Taylor was absolutely wonderful with our 3 month old puppy! We didn’t worry for one second knowing she was in such great hands. We appreciated Taylors check ins and photo updates :) I would recommend/we would love to have Taylor back in a heartbeat! Our pup misses her already!”

“We had Chris come do an in-home stay for the first time with our reactive pitbull and he crushed it! Reactive dogs are not the easiest to find sitters for and Chris was very accommodating with setting up a meet and great before hand and had even done his own research ahead of time to make sure he was knowledgeable before going through the introduction process. Our dog warmed up to him right away and she was able to immediately identify him as a safe person since he was so calm and easy going with her. When it came time for him to stay, all that was needed was a quick reminder and they were best buds for the rest of the weekend. He quickly learns her quirks. He sent daily pictures and updates. Then when we returned, our mail was stacked on the counter and the house was very neat, just as we left it, which is always appreciated when someone stays in your home. During the introduction stage he even requested to be shown where our cleaning supplies were and when our trash gets taken out. Chris was not only an excellent dog sitter, but a great house sitter as well! We are frequent travelers and will definitely be continuing to use Chris.”


About: I have been taking care of animals my whole life and many friends of mine have trusted me with the pets. I am also willing to meet all of your pets needs Normally mornings work for me with a little in the afternoon and then nights it depends on what time and how long the service will be I have a cat right not and take care of him by playing giving him treats and fresh food and water every day not matter what
About: I’ve had several dogs and cats to take care of since I was 5 years old. I have always loved animals and wanted to work with them in some way, so this is my way to do just that. I currently have a cat and I’m always spending time with my family’s cat and dog. I would love to care for other pets as often as I can. I always make sure that the pet is stimulated and getting enough love and affection. Pets need more than just food and water! I make sure to meet as many needs as possible.
“Claudine is simply the best! She went above and beyond to make sure we felt comfortable leaving our dog in her hands. Her warm energy was so appreciated and she provided us with tons of updates (and great photos). Our dog seemed very well taken care of, relaxed and happy when we returned. She was also a very good communicator, thoughtful, and left detailed notes about bathroom breaks and other behavior. We felt at ease having Claudine in our home, and will use her again in the future!”

Gabriel was fantastic.. He made sure to have taken out and kept the house clean. He also got a smaller bag of food for the pups as the bags that were in the pantry ran out. The fish were fed daily, He took both dogs for walks daily too and shoveled out some snow from the deck to make a path for them to get to the yard and cleared out snow from the stairs from the deck too. I’m so happy with his work. Highly recommend
