1. Felicia P.

“Felicia cared for my animals as if they were her own. I didn’t worry at all while we were gone! She kept in contact with me and sent me photos, so I was able to see them acclimate to her. She even cleaned and washed her towels and sheets so that I came home to no extra work. I highly recommend her!”


2. Nickali L.

“As always, Nickali did an outstanding job watching our three labradoodles. He stayed at our house and made our furry friends feel like family. The best dog sitter!”

5. Stephanie W.
About: As a lifelong dog lover, I have years of experience caring for dogs. I provide attentive, loving, and reliable care tailored to each dog’s needs. I’m a teacher with lots of flexibility in my daily schedule. Pet care is a natural part of my routine. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or cuddles, I enjoy making dogs feel loved and cared for. I prioritize safety and build trust with every pet and owner. I have a huge backyard that is not fully fenced. I’m also familiar with the local dog parks if that’s an option the pet owner is comfortable with.


6. Kelly G.

“Hired Kelly to see how petting would work for a trip in the future. Kelly was super friendly. Came for a quick house tour during the week and watched our pets on that Friday. She got here right when we asked. Feed and hung out with the dogs. Sent photos. Will hire again”


7. Madison S.

“Madison did an excellent job taking care of our two dogs. She even went the extra mile and took one to the vet as soon as she could when he got sick. House was left in great shape and she cleaned up very well. Wouldn't hesitate to ask her to watch our dogs again.”


8. Theresa H.

“Theresa is an outstanding dog sitter. The dogs love her so much, and she is wonderful interacting with them. She even tidied up the main floor of our house, which is above and beyond. She will definitely be my future number one choice.”


9. Lark F.

“Lark stayed for a week at our home and was so caring of our furry baby Kevin. Kevin's not always predictable and they made good friends with loving belly rubs, etc. She shared pictured throughout the week. We will definitely be calling her back to see if she can stay again when we plan our next trip! Thank you so very much!”

“Jordan helped me out last minute when I went out of town for a couple weeks. The dogs instantly loved him and he gave me daily updates with how they were doing. I’d definitely recommend him and will be using him again!!”


11. Leslie K.
About: I’ve lived with dogs my whole life, and started working at a vets clinic about 3 years ago. I have experience feeding, medicating (including insulin), and keeping pets happy and healthy during your long trips. I work part time currently with a split shift. My lunch break is plenty long to go stop by to check on your babies, and can stop by before and after i get off as well! When sitting in your home, I will go over my schedule with you and figure out what will work best for your baby. Wether that be walks, feeding times, or when to give medicine if needed.


12. Marty M.

“Marty took great care of our spoiled pups. He sent pics and updated periodically through the day. He’ll definitely get our business again!”


13. Amber C.

“Amber took great care of my senior cat. He takes medicine 3 times a day and she was ON it. I came home to a calm, happy kitty. She communicated, sent pictures, and was just a great care provider!”


14. Bella F.
About: I have had dogs all my life from all shapes and sizes. I have had a Great Dane as my largest dog, and 4 smaller dogs in my entire lifetime! I don't mind the size! I can take care of pets weekends, and the occasional weekday pet sitting care. My weekends will be free all summer long this 2025 season. I can play with the dogs, feed & water them, take them on walks, let them out to go to the bathroom, and I have no troubles with handling any size of dog!

“Ronald has stayed with Olivia on numerous occasions, we absolutely love her! She gives me constant updates on him - sending me pictures or telling me how he's doing. She has a backyard which Ronnie is a big fan of! He also get along really well with their two older dogs, who are very chill. She lets him on the furniture, which he takes full advantage of for snuggles. Very sweet, very attentive, highly recommend!”

“So Diane is absolutely the best dog sitter we have ever had. Our elderly dog (Puddles) ended up having some medical issues while Diane was taking care of her, and Diane did an outstanding job taking care of our Puddles during this time. Puddles is doing fine and we truly appreciate Diane keeping Puddles. We highly recommend Diane taking care of your pets. She is someone you can trust! Thanks again.”
