“Angela is a delight. She spends a lot of time with each pet, doing things that make each one feel comfortable and seen. She even cozied up on the floor to make a newer member of the pet family feel like home. She also sends tons of pictures, which is great! I love seeing them being well taken care of. Definitely will ask to help again in the future.”
“I would highly recommend. They were very friendly when we met. They took care of my little puppy so well! There was lots of pictures and details given after every visit. They went above and beyond with the items I requested. Never late and stayed the whole time.”

About: Hello my name is Wendy. I am an assertive individual with a calm energy, who is flexible on size and breed, and with over ten years experience providing pet care. I own vehicle that can accommodate multiple dogs comfortably and take 2-3 walks daily, even in inclement weather. I have the flexibility of caring for puppies and understand the need for frequent potty breaks as well as playtime opportunities for socialization. I often board dogs from multiple families concurrently, and provide separate areas for meal time in order to keep feeding time safe. Play time is supervised and breed appropriate toys are available upon request to ensure a safe fun stay. If I am required to leave the house while caring for your pet, I separate all dogs and have a large crate available if needed I am self employed and able to make my own schedule. This allows me to accommodate a variety of needs that my clients may have. At my current residence, I have a fenced in back yard to allow for safe off leash exploration. I also, as mentioned, provide separate eating areas, to ensure a safe environment during mealtime.
“Jessica was a great cat sitter! All instructions were followed and she was great at communicating. Skittles seemed very happy upon my return! I would book with her again.”
“Stacy was wonderful, she has good communication and we never worried about our cats while we were gone.I hope she is available if we need a cat sitter again”
“Karyn is just fantastic. She has the training and experience to take care of pets, but more importantly has the most important skill and the one you can’t teach someone; the love. Book Karyn with peace of mind, I promise your pets will appreciate it.”

“Thanks, Talia, for taking such good care of our fur babies! Great communication & very reliable. It was such a relief to know that our two kitties would be well taken care of while we were away.”
About: I have a lifetime of hands-on experience with dogs. I've fostered several pups—one of whom I adopted—and truly understand canine behavior, needs, and comfort. Your pet won’t just be watched—they’ll be cared for like family in a safe, loving environment that feels like home. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I work a part-time remote internship with a flexible schedule. I'm home most of the day, allowing me to provide consistent care, attention, and companionship. Whether it’s regular walks, feeding, playtime, or just keeping pets company, I’m available when needed and always prioritize their well-being and comfort. In my home, I provide a calm, pet-friendly environment where animals can feel safe and relaxed. I stick to their usual routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions from their owner. I keep pets supervised, ensure they have plenty of enrichment, and create cozy spaces for rest. If caring for pets in a client’s home, I maintain their familiar surroundings and routines, keep the space clean, and give regular updates to ensure peace of mind. In both cases, I treat every pet like they’re my own—with patience and attentiveness.

Justine was INCREDIBLE. I could not have asked for a better sitter. And I am the pickiest & most anxious pet mama haha
Savannah was kind, polite and followed all my instructions. My dog loved her right away, despite usually being shy with new people. It's obvious from the photos she sent that my pup was so well loved and cared for during her visits. I would definitely book her again!
Gabriel was reliable and took great care of Riley. I appreciated the updates and felt confident my cat was in good hands. Would definitely book again!
My only experience with a dog sitter and I’m so happy we went with them. I have 3 dogs and one is fearful of most things especially humans and he warmed up to them eventually. Thats a huge deal for us and we are beyond grateful to find people we can trust for our pack. ❤️
Great communication, attention to detail and care for my kitties. I will definitely request Hossanna again!
Laney took her time with my 3 fur babies and all 3 seemed to enjoy her spending the time with them. I would re-book with her in the future.
Madelynne was very communicative and reliable in dropping in on our two very active dogs for a long weekend. She was professional and polite. She even helped sort out an issue with our auto cat feeder while we were away. We would definitely book her again.
Thanks, Talia, for taking such good care of our fur babies! Great communication & very reliable. It was such a relief to know that our two kitties would be well taken care of while we were away.
Amaya was great! Flexible and communicates! She's great with the dogs. We will have her house sit/drop in again.
Sam was the best! She was able to accommodate my last minute check ins on my two boys. I felt safe letting her into my home. I arrived home to them waiting and they were well taken care of. I 100% recommend and will use her services in the future.
Torrie took amazing care of my cat Riley while I was away. I came home to a happy, relaxed cat. She gave me updates and is super reliable! I will definitely use her again. Thanks so much, Torrie!!
Stacy was awesome. My dogs are picky with people and they loved her. I have had probably the worst 10 days I have had in my memory....Stacy was an absolute rock. Knowing that my fur babies were taken care of made all of the difference in our lives. Prompt, professional and caring!
Goldy used to mad/annoyed with me when I would get back from travel but not since Reece started pet sitting. This is a repeat booking (see original review) - I definitely recommend if you want to come home to happy pets and a clean space!
Geneva was fantastic with my kitties! She was super responsive and knowledgeable. I felt super comfortable leaving my cats to her for the holidays. Even my cat who is skiddish warmed up quickly to her! Highly recommend for anyone who wants an attentive and friendly sitter. Thanks, Geneva!!
Winston loves Kat! He’s always happy to see her, and he has a great time playing and cuddling with her. I feel completely comfortable leaving W with Kat. I appreciate that she communicates quickly whenever there’s a question. She’s the best sitter I’ve had in years!👍
Very thoughtful catsitter and caregiver. Kept my cat going with daily visits for nearly half a month.
Nadine was very communicative and eager to help. We appreciate her looking after our rabbits and would definitely hire her again.
Adrien was excellent! Great communication and took really good care of Gucci. We will definitely book with Adrien in the future.
Ryan did a great job checking in on our diabetic and elderly cat. We were so glad that Ryan felt comfortable with giving insulin injections, which our cat needs twice a day. It can be hard to find pet sitters with injection experience! Our cat was happy and comfortable when we came back home from our trip. Thanks so much, Ryan!
