1. Christine L.

“Christine was lovely, and my dog took to her immediately! No hesitation at all - he immediately ran to her for kisses and pets before she had even made it through the door during our meet and greet. He was happy to snuggle with her while we were away for a weekend. She's also very responsive and sends cute photos, so you never feel too far from home.”


2. Brianna F.

“Our pups were taken care of probably better than if we were at home! I appreciated all of the photos sent and the love given while we were away. Brianna and Jersey also went above and beyond with taking care of things around the house. 100% recommend.”


3. Andrea G.


“Once again, Andrea was an amazing farm sitter! I have 100% confidence in her watching our animals, and love the daily pictures and updates. She went over and above to make sure they had what they wanted and needed. I don’t know that I could use anyone else after having her watch over our homestead. Thank you, Andrea!”

“Rose is a kind, professional and polite dog sitter. She is prompt and took excellent care of my dog’s needs. I was impressed that she could handle my large energetic Saint Bernard so well right away! Anyone who loves their dog like their child will have peace of mind with their canine in Rose’s hands.”


12. Baileigh W.
About: From a young age, I had been intertwined with the joy and responsibility of caring for dogs. Growing up in my neighborhood, which began with me walking my own dog as a child. The simple act of taking a stroll down the street transformed into a cherished routine,where each wagging tail and playful bark brought a smile to my face. Over the years, my love for dogs blossomed, and it wasn't long before neighbors began to notice my enthusiasm. They often turned to me, trusting me to watch over their pets with the same care and affection I showed my own. Whether it was a quick walk around the block or a playful romp in the park, my dedication to ensuring every dog felt loved and well-cared-for became a defining aspect of my life. This bond with dogs has not only enriched my childhood but has also shaped my character, instilling in me a sense of responsibility and kindness that I carry with me to this day. I would love to mention I am taking dog training classes I have personal trained my owns dogs and as well closest friends puppies and had taken veterinarian assistant classes as well I am personally full-time job but morning shift 6:30-2 but I have plenty of time after work and over night to play and hang out I will make sure the guaranteed the safety/care of your fur-baby cause I understand it can be stressful and scary to leave four legged babies behind I will make the give the same love as my own always making sure they have the best time of their life with long walk to movie time while your out of town with of course update pictures of them having the best time

About: I work at an animal hospital full time. I enjoy working with puppies and senior dogs. From training them to giving medications is something I am good at. I enjoy spending time with animals. I work full time at an animal hospital. I am available Sunday- Saturday. I can let your animals out on my lunch. I am available before and after work to let your animals out or take them on a walk!! I do not have a fenced in yard at this time. However I am able to take them for walks 3-5 times a day. I am also able to take them to the dog park near my house!


14. Kalei G.
About: I love dogs! I have two dogs. One of them is 6yrs old and the other one 8mons. I’ve personally trained them both. They’re everything to me. I will make sure to care for your furry friends as I will mine. Every morning I get up around 5 to care for my pups and then get ready for work. I work 7:45am-1pm. When I’m back home I make sure they go outside and get their water and let them have free time. I would want to put any pup that I work with on the same schedule as I am or I can accommodate myself to fit their schedule and/or needs. I treat my dogs like my children. They’re free to roam, they go to potty every 2-3hr or as needed. They eat morning and night. They’re really friendly so they like walks and getting to see the other dogs. Other dogs that will be staying will be on their schedule unless the owner give different instructions.

16. Selma M.

“Selma did a great job housesitting with our dog Bistro; he really loves her! She sent lots of pictures so I knew that Bistro was doing well while I was gone. We will definitely use Selma again.”


17. Rachael R.
About: I have had numerous pets over the years and been given the opportunity to pet sit and even farm sit for family members. I have experience with large dog breeds such as great danes. My family used to foster kittens from bottle fed to 10-15 weeks old and I loved every second of it. I dream of one day opening an animal rescue or sanctuary to help those in need and without shelter. I am a full time student so when my classes are out I sometimes walk around the downtown area and pet care or walking will fit perfectly into my schedule in this aspect. I come home after my schedule and immediately play with my pets and make sure they are feeling great and healthy. My three cats and one dog love coming in the backyard with me especially when I am gardening they spend time with me and I enjoy just being outside with them. Besides that I enjoy taking my dog on walks every so often around our block. I will always take care of your pets how I would mine! I am a better safe than sorry person so I will always ask more questions than not just to be safe!


18. Rebecca R.

“When I got home, I could tell my dogs were very well taken care of! They loved it! Rebecca was so professional and sent photos of the doggies while I was out of town! I will definitely be using Rebecca again for the amazing service my dogs received!”

“Junyiah (Reign) is very sweet and she took very good care of our two pups while we were away from the day.”


20. Isabella W.
About: I have had a bunch of animals and also watched some friends animals while they were away on a trip. I take the pets on a walk and get some exercise morning and evening theres always toys for the dogs who can have toys. Feeding times are always around the same time. I have a fenced in yard that is huge where dogs can run around and play with some toys and exercise. Potty hours are whenever needed I'm outside a lot to water flowers and swim and always bring my dog out to play outside while I'm out. I always make sure there is water available its been so hot lately they need it. Treats are also good for doing something good or even when training. I have a lot of free time and love to spend time with my own pets. My schedule is very open all day every day. I feed my dogs twice a day I also walk them twice a day sometimes even three times if it’s cool outside. They always have fresh water and toys.
