1. Megan K.

“I was really pleased with the care that Pepper received with Megan. She sent me pictures. She assured me that Pepper was OK and eating. They went on walks and I would recommend Megan to my friends and also use her again.”


2. Alex L.
“Really appreciate Alex watching our pup for the night. He's doesn't get along with most other dogs, but Alex had no issue keeping him separated from her dogs and handled his care with experience and ease. Nice to know he was in good hands! Thank you!”


3. Jessica H.


“Jessica is amazing! She was incredibly flexible with schedule changes, provided tons of updates and pictures, even for a short stay. I can’t thank her enough for the peace of mind she is given me.”


4. Abundance D.

“My dog loves her, very flexible”


5. Madison J.

“Maddie was great housesitting my dog! Baxter likes her alot and I am very glad. I was so relieved that everything was so neat and clean when I got home too.”


6. Eugene & Gale L.

“Samson had a wonderful visit with Eugene and Gail. We loved getting lots of pictures of our boy while we were gone. We will definitely use them again! Thank you Eugene & Gail!!”


7. Emma B.
“Emma has been our farm sitter of choice for years. At 16 years old, she was far more responsible than many older adults. She is capable, knowledgeable and willing to work. She clearly loves all animals and can handle difficult situations with a calm, cool head. I have the very highest regard for her!”


8. Lindsay S.

“Highly recommend Lindsay. We booked with her last minute for a week. She was very attentive and answered any question I had. She sent me updates on Abby. I felt like my pup was safe and well loved. Abby whimpered the whole way home because she was sad to leave. When we picked up Abby we had a sweet card and a report card on how she was during her stay. We will definitely use Lindsay moving forward. She is amazing!!”


9. Katie J.
“Katie is amazing with animals, dedicated, caring and competent. My dog Moose is excited every time he sees her house. She provides plenty of exercise and attention. She communicates very well, kept me updated and sent a few pictures. Highly recommend her.”


10. Ann T.

“Ann & her husband Pete are amazing!!! They have watched my dog Clover a few times in the past & she absolutely loves being with them. She is spoiled with love and attention when she is there. My family & I went away for 10 days and Ann kept us updated on Clover everyday. Clover had an extensive surgery in July where one of her kidneys and her adrenal gland were removed due to a tumor. Ann made sure Clover was fed her prescription diet and asked questions if she had any concerns. My family and I know that when Clover is with Ann she is in great hands! We will definitely be using Ann’s services again in the future! I think Clover misses being at their home already!”


11. Alanna R.

“Amazing sitter, kept us updated the entire time and sent photos with every update. Alanna made sure our little girl was well taken care of and comfortable. Will definitely return for any future trips. ☺️♥️”


12. Carly W.

“Carly was just great with Harley! It was such a relief to know she was so well taken care of while we were away. I highly recommend Carly and will book her again! 🐶”


13. Donna D.
“Donna always works nicely with my dogs. She is kind and attentive. My dogs love spending time with Donna on their stays with her. Thank you.”


14. Tonya P.

“I am beyond grateful for Tonya. I was able to take a once in a lifetime vacation because Tonya was there for me. I have a 20 year old very needy pup who isn't easy to care for. She took such good care of him and my home, even while, my smoke alarms decided to beep the entire 8 days. She is a patient woman. I hope you are lucky enough to book her.”


15. Diane C.
About: After nearly nine years together we lost our beloved rescue doggie last summer. We miss the companionship, but we are not ready to make a full time commitment to another pet. Doggie-sitting your special pet seems like the perfect way to satisfy my desire for a four-legged companion. I work in a school so I have the summer off and will have lots of flexibility once the summer begins. This will allow me to be very attentive to your pet for a day, a night, or while you take a few days of vacation. Our in-town location is great for long or short walks and our home is very pet friendly. All of the members of our household are dog lovers so your pet will get all the loving attention it needs and more. We look forward to meeting your doggie!


16. Liseli M.

“My dog loves having Liseli come for a stay. She is amazing and really takes care of your pet and home.”


17. Alyx C.

“Alyx was wonderful to work with and we are very happy we found her! She was easy to communicate with and kept us updated on Lucy's stay with messages and pictures. We were nervous leaving Lucy with a new sitter but feel confident that she was well cared for and given lots of one-on-one attention in her time with Alyx. We definitely recommend her!”


18. Ilsa G.
“Ilsa is a very caring, energetic person. She is responsible and loves animals. She has trained her own rescue dog very well and I would trust her with my own. She understands that dogs have different personalities and works with them. She loves to walk so will enjoy walking yours.”


19. Arielle B.
About: I have grown up and cared for pets all my life. I have a history of basic training for puppies and older dogs. Administering medication to your baby is no problem, and our house is up for even the most spry puppy. I have a long history of fostering dogs in my home as well and working with rescues to help them find their forever homes. You can rest assured that your fur (or fur-less as the case may be) baby will be treated like one of my own while you are away. My babies take two walks a day (some times more) that your love would also be included on. They are generally home while I work but I work from home a few days a week and I am also able to come home to let them out for potty breaks. All our pets have an endless supply of love and play time with our kiddos every day. I also have a large yard in a country setting away from the hustle and bustle of the day to day, so it can be an opportunity for your baby to relax and enjoy his/her vacation as well. I care for our pets with walks, love, cuddling, feeding on pet specific schedule, and medication administrations as instructed. I also ensure regular vet visits and ample time with me home to love on them and give them the attention they need to feel part of the family. Training is also an important part of pet ownership and I work at giving our pets at least basic training.
