“Taylor house sat for us for a full 7 days and was so wonderful! Our two dogs just adore her and had the best time- she is kind, attentive, and you can tell she really loves the animals and prioritizes their quality of care. She even sent daily updates and photos! She has our highest recommendation- and we’ve already re-booked her for an upcoming trip! ☺️”


“Megan was AMAZING with my fur babies!! This was our first time having someone we didn’t personally know watch them and I cannot say enough good things about her. She kept in contact with me the whole time we were gone and sent pictures everyday. She even crocheted a bandana for our pup. She put our minds at ease while we were away. I would definitely use her again.”

About: I lost my beagle baby girl a year and a half ago, and I would love to give your pet the same care and attention as her. I have experience walking, nail trimming, administering medication, and assisting with mobility issues. I love all animals and would happily welcome yours into my home. I am looking to provide dog walking/quick visit services on weekdays after my work, and boarding services on weekends when I’m off. While in my care, your pet will have my diligent attention and care. I have a big yard for running and playing. It is not fenced, but I can utilize tethers to give them room to move around under supervision. I will make it my top priority to love your pet and follow your care instructions.

About: I’ve had animals of many kinds & species since the age of 4, my oldest pet was a 21 year old cockatiel & my eldest dog was 17 & I helped her raise multiple litters of puppies. So I have a variety of experience with different animals a lot with dogs seniors to puppies. Im currently mainly doing odd jobs. While I get things ready to start my own LLC. So I’m available for walks, drop ins & sittings most of the time especially with a decent amount of notice. Depends on the situation & whats available but d take them out to play in a fenced in yard to play with their favorite toy, give them their provided treats & all the ear scratches & belly rubs their little heart could handle.

“Molly is a wonderful dog sitter and I would highly recommend her. My puppies were very well taken care of and she even watered my flowers!!! I would definitely use her again.”


“Brianna was great. We needed a sitter sooner than originally planned for a last minute trip. Brianna was quick to change her meet and greet to accommodate us. I could tell she was conscientious as she came prepared with great questions, Then we had a family emergency and she was very patient as we figured out the logistics of our trip. She sent a photo everyday. She was willing to send more, but I told her it wasn't necessary. She texted me good questions and I could tell she was attentive to our dog. She left the house neat and clean. I would highly recommend her!”
