“Adriana came through for our two dogs and cat once again, with two drop-in visits this week. She is consistently reliable and always sends us updates with pet photos from her visits.”

“Deborah went above and beyond taking care of my animals! Sent a lot of pictures and videos and played with my dogs a bunch outside. She even got my mail while we were gone. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter!”

“Jamie was so good working with our anxious dog why we were away for a week. She sent lots of pictures and provided updates after each time she visited our dog”


“Chelsea is amazing!!!!! My little Boston terrier is a very anxious pup and I am always a bit nervous leaving her with people. She quickly became besties with Chelsea and I feel so as ease. Chelsea is so responsive and always accommodates my last minute needs- I can't even express how much of a relief she has brought to our lives!! Thank you Chelsea!!!!”

“Cori and Jamie are fantastic with my fur babies. Excellent communicators, very professional and always on time and reliable. I cannot be more pleased with how well they take care of our pups.”

“Kailyn was quick to respond to a last minute booking. Our stranger resistant kitties warmed up to her fast as she was reliably on time and able to understand and respect the autonomy some cats require. We recommend Kailyn as a sitter and will use her services again!”

“My cat felt safe interacting and snuggling up to John within minutes of first meeting him, and I think it’s because of John’s calm, intentional, gentle presence and demeanor. I couldn’t believe this is his first time cat-sitting because he was so good with my cat. He was quick to respond and was communicative throughout the visits, and asked many questions to get to know my cat’s routines and preferences. John was so polite and easygoing. He went above and beyond caring for my cat for the weekend, and this was a last minute scheduling given last minute plans. So grateful for John.”

“Brittany did an amazing job with my dogs and my cat during my weekend away! She was very communicative and sent lots of sweet photos. I highly recommend her, and will definitely ask her to watch my crew again!”

“We so appreciated having Sierra available to walk and feed our dog after last minute plans to leave town. Sierra was responsive, on time, and provided updates after each visit. We have already booked Sierra for our next trip out of town.”

“Crystal was awesome! Helio is very shy and she was only able to see him when she came to get the key. So instead of play pictures Crystal took pictures of his food for us. I'm hoping after a few trips he will be curious enough to come out when he hears her. In time I'm sure they will be buddies ?”

“Kaylah has been really attentive with Mylo and does what I ask of her to do in terms of taking care of our pup Mylo. She gives me updates after every visit, which I appreciate so much! Thanks so much for all your help this summer Kaylah! :)”

About: Prior military working dog handler 11+years, German shepherd, Belgian malinois, Dutch shepherd. Prior Service Dog trainer, Labrador retrievers, Golden retrievers. General passion for taking care of dogs. I currently work with many dogs throughout the week and am able to be flexible when I need to go take care of a new dog. We have a spacious fenced in yard.

“Ali and Rob are fantastic! I always feel so comfortable knowing they are watching over my cat while I’m away. Ali and Rob are exceptional and they go above and beyond. I highly recommend them :)”

“Kilie did a fantastic job taking care of our two boys (cats)! She was attentive to our instructions, careful to make sure they got what they needed, and communicated with us how each visit went. We did a meet and greet where she introduced herself to the boys and then took care to make sure they were treated very well! Would highly recommend hiring Kilie!”

About: I would not be where I am today without the incredible impact animals have made on my life all throughout my years of living. I am a dedicated animal lover and give immense care and love to my furry friends. I have 3 furry friends of my own! I have a Bernedoodle named Samoa and she is the sweetest girl and loves everyone ☺️ I have 2 cats named Ollie and Maisie, they are bestfriends! Maisie is my fierce calico and Ollie is my handsome tuxedo boy. There has never been a time in my life where I did not own or care for animals. I look at them as my own children and would do absolutely anything necessary to make sure they go through life happy 🫶🏼 I am a full time pharmacy technician, my work schedule is pretty flexible, but I am mostly free on the weekends. I include pet care into my routine before my scheduled shift on days that I do work, and after work. There are days that I do have off. I care for my pets and other people’s pets in the best way possibly. I will provide lots of love with pets, scratches, toy playing, running, and everything else in between. Whatever your furry friend is okay with, I’m okay with too!
About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs, including feeding, providing fresh water, and ensuring they get regular exercise through walks. I have looked after my friends dog on multiple occasions, taking responsibility for their daily needs and giving them plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I’m actively looking to walk dogs as I enjoy walking them during the evening time. I’m a teacher so during school year, lm available 3 pm and onwards I am only offering dog walking service since I live in an apartment, it will be very difficult to take care of the dog here.

Hannah has been super with our 2 dachshunds and 3 cats. She has been pet sitting for a couple of years with daily visits along with overnight stays when we’ve gone out of town. One of our dachshunds is very timid and guarded but warmed up to her very quickly. She even visited one day when the other dachshund chewed through the water line to a toilet and flooded the bathroom. She turned off the water and then sent us videos of what happened. Could have been so much worse if it weren’t for Hannah. We highly recommend Hannah for your pet sitting needs.

Thanks so much Alison and Robert! The peace of mind knowing that my cat (Bobbi) has two amazing friends to take care of her and keep her company, means the world to me 😊 the photo shoots and notes are a highlight to my day and I am able to work and travel knowing she is happy and in great hands. Thanks for the many worry free trips past and future from Dia and Bobbi 🥰

Kailyn was quick to respond to a last minute booking. Our stranger resistant kitties warmed up to her fast as she was reliably on time and able to understand and respect the autonomy some cats require. We recommend Kailyn as a sitter and will use her services again!

Amanda is very prompt, professional, accommodating, and supportive. We appreciated her drop-in visit. In addition, we loved the photos and feedback she left. She is encouraging and willing to answer any questions or provide suggestions. Our puppy loved her at the first hello and so did we. Highly recommend her and will definitely seek her assistance again.

Isabel is the best, we had a sad situation made worse, my mom passed and we had to ask her to watch her kitty in a different location. She was so great about it and she was amazing with my mom’s cat. The cat is actually so much more social now, so we were able to find her a new home!! Thank you so much, I’ll always recommend you

Alex did a great job, as always, of taking care of our two cats while we were on vacation. She followed our instructions, and the cats were obviously happy to see her. Everything was in good shape when we returned. I would not hesitate to have Alex take care of them in the future.
