“My dogs can be a reactive, especially when people come in the door. Skylynn remained calm and won them over quickly. She stayed in touch, sending frequent pictures. She left the house a clean as she found it. I would happily book her again.”
“Brie was awesome! She stayed at our house for four nights and took such great care of our two dogs and two cats. The dogs got lots of walks, the cats got plenty of love, and she kept us in the loop with tons of photo updates. We came home to happy pets and a clean house—what more could you ask for?”
“Haley was great with our dog, Harley. Conscientious and very caring. She took him on several walks and gave him plenty of love. Helped out with packages delivered and mail, too.”
“Savannah was very communicative and flexible with our last minute needs and house full of pets! It was our first time leaving our house to someone who wasn’t a family member and we didn’t have a worry or doubt at all.”

She adored our pets and text us regularly to give updates and send pics.Her communication exceeded our expectations! It’s so great knowing when you are away that someone is loving on your fur babies as much as you do. We already plan on booking Phoebe for our next trip!”
“Nicole was responsive to our requests for lots of photos during our first weekend away from our puppy and flexible with adjusting end time based on changes to our weekend plans. We would consider booking with her again in the future!”
About: I have taken care of my own dogs since I was very young. Later in life, neighbors and professors would ask me to dog sit or dog walk when they were unable to do so. Taking care of dogs is something I enjoy and would like to do more often. I am currently working on Mondays through Thursdays at 11-8:30 but I will always be able to work around it to spend time with my furry friends. At the moment me and my family are housing a puppy that is a year old. We have a fenced in yard for her to run around and she eats well crafted food to keep her energy and health up.
“Mia did an OUTSTANDING job caring for our dog and two cats. She sent us daily updates w photos of walks, playtime, and even did a photo shoot with our dog! She did a home stay for 4 nights and our house was impeccable when we returned. To say I would hire her again is an understatement. We’re convinced our pup misses her and we wish we could hire her indefinitely. If you pass on having her watch your pets you are missing out, if I could give ten stars, I would ❤️❤️❤️”
“Ashleigh did a great job pet sitting our dog on very short notice while out of town for long weekend. Great communication daily and she was patient/understanding when our dog was frightened by thunderstorms and inconsiderate people in neighborhood shooting off fireworks in the middle of June! Home was in excellent condition when we returned too. Thank you for your service and we will would use her again to care for our dog.”
“Thank you for taking such good care of my fur baby and communicating with me throughout your overnight stay. Definitely eased my nerves and I knew she was good hands! Look forward to booking with you in the future.”
About: I got my first dog in middle school and my own puppy in 2019 which have been well taken care of if not a little spoiled. I did a puppy sitting job for a short while in 2024 and loved it so much. I'm available most days of the week for overnight visits if necessary. I'm not very busy so I'm usually open all day to play with your pups. I will stay within the provided boundaries and keep your dogs safe at home. I will be sure to keep them in sight at all times to keep them safe. Of course any accidents can be cleaned up as well.
“Sally did a great job while I was away and did so with a pretty short turnaround. My dogs have a bit of energy, so coming home to a house in order was a good thing. With availability as a caveat, I will use Sally again in a second and would recommend her to anyone that doesn't need her when I do.”

Noah S.
“Our family had the opportunity to have Noah provide our 3 cats with care while we were out of town over several days. He was prompt and visited when he was scheduled to be there, taking care of the pets with food and water. In addition, he made sure that each pet was checked in on and those that wanted some loving got it. Those that wanted to hide were allowed to do so, but he did physically ensure that all pets were in a good place and he let us know that. This helped my family have a better short trip knowing our pets were well taken care of.”
