Hannah was amazing! We will definitely be booking her again. She sent us photos while we were gone which was so sweet. She left the house clean after her stay, she was respectful and very professional. I will be recommending her to all my friends!

Audrey is very friendly and an excellent communicator. She confirmed all appointments we set prior to the pet sitting dates and sent daily messages when we were away. She also sent pictures knowing we enjoy seeing the pups even when we’re gone. Audrey left the house very clean including running laundry and the dishwasher upon her departure. I hope to use Audrey’s services many times again in the future!

Chelsea is amazing! My husky Maddy just loves her and my dog is usually a little timid and shy. I rely on Chelsea many times when I'm in a bind and she's always willing to help me out. Thank you so much!

Maria did a good job of taking care of my three cats and two dogs. She left the house in the same condition that it was when I left and the animals seemed healthy and happy when I returned.

Kristin did a fabulous job watching our 11 year old pug while we were away for the week. When we’ve kenneled him in the past he would get stressed and not eat, but with her he was relaxed and at ease. Highly recommend Kristin for watching your pets. She sent lots of pictures and our mind was at ease knowing he was well taken care of.

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and truly love caring for animals of all kinds. Although I currently live in a small apartment and can’t have pets of my own right now, pet sitting gives me the chance to spend time doing something I genuinely enjoy. I regularly dog sit for a married couple whenever they travel out of town, and I also cat sit for a woman who lives in an apartment. I have experience feeding, watering, walking, playing with pets, giving medications, and making sure animals feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’m dependable, patient, attentive, and treat every pet like they’re my own. Whether your pet needs lots of playtime and attention or a calm and comforting presence, I’m happy to provide loving care you can trust. I’m a teacher, which means I have the entire summer off and plenty of time to give your pets the attention and care they deserve. During the summer, I have a very flexible schedule for drop-ins, walks, overnight stays, and pet sitting. Once the school year begins again, I’d still love to continue working with returning clients and their pets in the evenings, on weekends, holidays, and school breaks. I truly enjoy caring for animals and getting to know their owners. Your pet’s comfort and safety are always my top priorities. I’m attentive, dependable, and make sure every pet feels secure, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, walking routines, and any special care requests to keep your pet happy and stress-free. I’m respectful of clients’ homes and understand how important trust is when someone is caring for your pets. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or shy and needs a calm presence, I’m patient and happy to adapt to their individual personality and needs. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.

About: I have had dogs since I was born. Have had two of my own and then have always had a family dog. Have sat dogs for friends, family, and coworkers. Love going for walks and would love to take your pal on one with me. Monday - Friday I work 8 - 4:30. I have a 30 minute lunch that I can let the dog out. And then after 4:30 I can take dogs for walks or house sit dogs all evening. Weekends have availability all day. Very flexible! I will follow any rules or instructions left for taking care of your dog. Just let me know and I will make it happen! I can provide company, play with them, feed them, and take them for walks.

About: I’ve dog sat for about 8ish years for family and friends. I also have two dogs of my own, a Mini Golden doodle and a Westie. My family also fosters dogs occasionally so I have lots of experience with different dogs and personalities. I work full time from 8:00am-4:30pm but I’m always open to provide care early anytime between 6:00am and before 7:30am. And can provide care anytime after 4:30pm. And am free anytime on the weekends. At home we have a fenced in backyard for our fur babies and let them outside to potty and play multiple times a day. When I dog sit I usually just provide services at the clients home and don’t bring the pets to my own house. But will of course provide the same care and let the pets out multiple times a day to play and potty, and will provide walks for the pets for any client that requests.
