“Mochi absolutely loves Bryce. He is so sweet and accommodating to all her needs. Mochi is a bit of a diva and also has terrible separation anxiety, and he handles it all well and in stride. I will definitely be booking Mochi with Bryce again. I feel that he will be an integral part of her life and wellbeing, and he has come her fast friend. I highly recommend Bryce.”
“Deanna was so lovely! She accommodated us as with a last minute request and responded quickly by asking lots of questions about our dogs, their habits, and needs. She followed our instructions to the letter and although it was a quick drop in, she still gave us a full report and pictures. We will definitely use her again in the future!”
“We couldn't be happier with the care Tori gave our gang and our home while we were away! She is professional, kind, and clearly has a connection with animals. Her communication was excellent, and it brought us peace to receive regular updates and pictures of our pets. We came home to a clean home, and everyone was relaxed and happy. Thank you!”
“Melissa was great! We needed someone to let our golden retriever out during the day while at work. Melissa showed up exactly when we scheduled her to, and sent lots pictures and videos which showed how happy our dog was to see her. She communicated very well during the visit and made sure she took care of everything we needed. We're definitely already looking to book her again for the next time we need dog care!”
About: I’ve had a dog since I was 7 years old who recently passed away. I live with my parents who are also fellow animal lovers and love when I pet-sit for friends. It brings life and fun to our household to host your furry friends. I currently work part time waitressing a few nights a week nearby. I am off weekends so I have all that time carved out to take care of pets! I have an unfenced, medium sized open field directly across from my condominium building I can take your pet for potty breaks and play time. I can keep them leashed for their safety. My parents, who I live with, are fellow animal lovers who love spending time with animals. I have a lazy cat who spends most of the day sleeping, but he lives upstairs in our split unit with my parents. My unit is entirely separate from where he resides, so if your pet doesn’t like cats, it’s no problem!
“Lauren did a great job checking in on my cat over the holiday weekend. She was responsive, communicative, and initiated a meet and greet with little notice. I would absolutely book with Lauren again when going out of town 🐈”
About: I recently had to say goodbye to my own dog, who was my daily walking buddy and constant sidekick. Getting back to dog care is a way for me to stay connected to that part of my life. I genuinely enjoy being around dogs and know how important it is to find someone you trust when you’re away. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments—from high-energy pups to older dogs who need a gentler pace. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, medications, basic training reinforcement, or just giving your dog the attention they need while you’re out. I’m reliable, communicative, and treat every dog like they’re my own. Whether it’s regular walks, check-ins, or some extra company for your pup while you’re gone, I’ve got it covered. I’m currently working part time from home as a consultant. So my schedule is very flexible. I can be available throughout the day as needed. I have a fenced yard and plenty of space for your pup to roam. I have a reliable car and am available to bring dogs to my house if needed.
“Andrea did a fantastic job taking care of our two little chihuahua boys. She made us feel comfortable with the way she listened to our instructions, and her calm demeanor helped them warm up to her very quickly. Her visit reports were enjoyable to read, and she sent multiple photos of the boys that brought smiles to our faces. We definitely plan on hiring Andrea again for our future dog sitting needs.”
“Amberleigh went above and beyond with our two kitties! She was so incredibly communicative, always sending helpful updates each day. I can’t even describe the peace of mind it brought me to have her looking over our boys, I think our cats might even be a little upset to see us back instead of her haha!! I would recommend Amberleigh to anyone and everyone who needs a reliable sitter!”

About: Back in 2010 I began working at petsmart in their petshotel. It was my dream job and I loved every minute of it. I cared for the pets during the day. Fed and bathed them. I have two dogs of my own as well as two michevious cats. I currently work at a daycare during the week so I will have the weekends available. Anytime during the day is good. Just send me a message. I live in a apartment so I cannot care for you pet here but I can come to your home. Make sure you pup has lots of fun and cuddles
“Our second time having Olivia do drop in visits with our pups! She is so flexible and accommodating. The pups love her. Thanks again for taking great care of our little fur babies.”
About: Dedicated dog lover with 10 years of experience providing compassionate care, including feeding, walking, and administering medications. Skilled in handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments, ensuring their safety and happiness while their owners are away. I work full time remotely, and have a very flexible work environment, so I am able to pet sit for just a few hours, or days at a time! I can stop by for a short potty break or a half hour walk! I have 2 medium/large dogs in my home. Both dog friendly, 4 years old. I have a fenced in yard, plenty of extra leashes and 3 large crates if needed.
