“We have left our babies with Thelma and Cary for years and feel so comfortable with them. I have had to leave on the spur of the moment lately for family illness up north and I couldn't leave them with anyone else . They take such great care and treat them like family.”


“Tatyana is an absolute gem!!!! She cared for our 2 dogs, 1 puppy, and our cat for 12 days while we were on a cruise, and went above and beyond in every way. She personally picked them all up and dropped them off—along with all of their belongings (and there was A LOT!)—just because we lived nearby. That’s just the kind of person she is: incredibly thoughtful, dependable, and genuinely kind. We came home to happy, healthy pets and couldn’t be more grateful. Tatyana is truly THAT AWESOME!!!!!!! She’s definitely our “Go-To” Petsitter for now on!!!!!! Thank you Tatyana again and again and again!!!!!”


“Nicole is amazing! I love her energy, passion, and love for caring for our fur baby. Her communication was amazing. Thank you so much. I will be using her services again in the future.”


“Kendal is an amazing dogsitter. It’s always a little nerve wrecking to board your animals but she was always quick to respond to any text messages and provided plenty of pictures. I highly recommend her to any dog parent. You can tell she has a genuine love and compassion towards our four legged fur babies. Thank you so much Kendal! 😊”


“I refer to these young ladies as, The Girls. Only because I usually can't remember their names! Lol. They are always there for me. They can take my furbaby on short notice and I need that in my line of work. My dog loves them. I highly recommend these ladies!”


“Cheri is so caring and knowledgeable about animals, dogs in particular! So thankful that we found her to care for our 4-legged baby. Our pup had a great time with Cheri, and we received photos of their time together. Cheri was flexible and super responsive; our dog came home clean and happy; and we highly recommend Cheri!”


“Robert and Topher took great care of our dog, and even sent us pictures and updates. Will definitely book with them again in the future and have already recommended them to friends.”

“Donna was a great choice to keep my dog. She was attentive and Pepper loved her. Donna treated her as one of her family and her doggies welcomed Pepper to the pack and they had a blast. I would definitely use Donna again and would highly suggest any looking for a sitter to talk with Donna. She is a pro at this!”


“Amanda and her family took excellent care of our sweet Charlie! Daily she sent updates, pics and even a video of him playing! Excellent communication throughout ! Highly recommend!”

“This was my first-time using Rover... Vinny watched our two huskies over the thanksgiving holiday, and from the start of the booking process talking with Vinny I had a great feeling. Turns out it was true, Vinny was great! He sent us detailed updates on feeding, playtime, etc. and several pictures of the dogs every day. They had lots of playtime, made some new friends, and were extremely well taken care of. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to family and friends, we will definitely board with him again! He was so accommodating with dropping them off at 7:00 am on Thanksgiving Day and picking them up on the following Sunday, he was great and explained everything he was doing. Thanks Vinny!!!”


About: I've had animals my whole life. I was taught that a pet is only a pet in the beginning. Then, they're family. Know that your baby will not only be safe, but also cared for when in my care. I have a flexible part-time schedule and take classes online, so I spend a good bit of time at home. Plenty of opportunities for cuddles and multiple potty breaks throughout the day. I have a fenced backyard. I can supervise outside, if preferred. I have 3 cats. The boys are interested and my come up to your pet, but that's all. My female cat will just ignore them. They're pretty docile.

““Aunt Barbara,” as we call her at our house, is wonderful! She and her entire family were 100% devoted to my dog. They all have loads of experience caring for animals. I will without a doubt be booking with Barbara in the future!”
