“This is our second time working with Grace and knowing she would be staying with Laney made our trip so easy. Laney looks so happy and relaxed in all her photos. We love that she can keep her normal routine and space while we’re away. Grace is super communicative and a great person to work with.”
“Janine did a great job watching our two dogs. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about them. It gave us peace of mind knowing they were in good hands, and they were happy and well cared for when we got back. We’d definitely trust Janine to watch them again and highly recommend her.”
“Julie is great! She’s very personable, easy to talk to and I can tell she loves animals. My dog Millie was very comfortable when we left after Julie came over. She sent pictures and gave us updates while we were gone. I would not hesitate to have her come back again.”
“We LOVE how much Shalindra loves our dogs, and they love her! She keeps us thoroughly updated and sends plenty of pictures and videos so we know they’re doing well. She is someone who you know just adores spending time with dogs, which helps us know she’s enjoying her time with our pups, even if one of our dogs is insane haha. Highly recommend Shalindra if you want someone to truly enjoy hanging out with your pups and update you along the way.”
About: I currently have two high energy pitbulls of my own, so I’m very comfortable handling strong, active dogs and keeping them mentally and physically engaged. I’m patient, attentive, and experienced with different temperaments, along with playful puppies or senior dogs. I treat every pet like my own and always prioritize their safety, comfort, and routine that you have set for your dog Since I’m currently between jobs, I have a flexible, open schedule and can dedicate my full attention to your pet. I’m available 7 days a week, mornings through evenings, making me a great option for last-minute bookings or dogs that need extra company and care throughout the day. Your pet’s safety is my number one priority. My home is fenced in and safe, and I’m here all day so your dog will never be left alone for long. I follow each owner’s routines closely, send regular photo updates, and will reach out immediately if anything comes up.
“Chris was awesome! Our dogs took right to her and the house looked great! She was comfortable when meeting our boisterous dogs and very punctual. She also sends great pics! We will definitely continue booking with Chris!”
“Kristen was absolutely fantastic! She was communicative, took fabulous care of our pets and left our home clean and tidy. We would absolutely love to have her sit for us again!”
“Jessica was incredible with our anxious pup! She sent us a bunch of pictures with little updates each day that put our minds at ease so we could really enjoy our vacation. When we got back home Gus looked so happy and it really seemed like he had bonded with her. Would 100% use Jessica to take care of Gus again!”
“Natalia is always great with a household of 3 pets. She caters to each individual’s needs and befriends everyone! She is super great with taking care of the space and brings in any boxes and mail for us while we are away. We get regular updates with videos and photos of our pets and we couldn’t be happier to have her help us!”
“Evelyn took fantastic care of our senior pug, making sure she got her walkies every day, administering her meds, and cleaning her face folds. We received a ton of pictures too! Highly recommend”
“Katelynn was wonderful! She took such great care of our boys while we were gone, sent regular pictures and updates, and helped us feel good about our vacation knowing our fur babies were in good hands. We would definitely book with her again!”
“Morgan was excellent! Struck the right balance of keeping us up to date without too much information so we could enjoy our trip. She sent plenty of pictures and really made us feel like our pups had someone who loved them almost as much as us taking care of them. I would highly recommend Morgan to anyone who needs their pups or house watched she was fantastic! We will definitely book with her in the future. P.S. our pups can be a little bit of a pain and she handled everything with finesse and grace. I can't express enough how appreciative we are that she was able to deal with their little quirks!”
“Julia did a wonderful job taking care of my cat and my house. She communicated well and kept me informed about how well my cat was eating and really tried to interact with Bumper to “win her over.” I will definitely use her again!”
“Kaitlyn took care of our three kitties for an extended vacation, including pilling, cleaning, reporting on minor concerns, taking care of the house, and cleaning everything up for our return. She updated us very consistently and with pictures, which was super helpful and reassuring as this was our first trip away from them for more than 8 hours due to one of them requiring a medication every 8 hours. In addition to doing a great job, she is a delight to talk to and all of her communication from start to finish has been professional and prompt. We highly recommend Kaitlyn!”
About: I grew up always having a dog(s), and started walking friends and families dogs when I was around 8 years old. I have experience handling dogs of various sizes (2lb - 140lb) and ages (0-15). I’ve also trained two dogs starting when they were 4 months: one was a pitbull and the other a plott hound. I am currently home from college, so my schedule is very flexible! I’m available mornings, midday and evenings, 7 days a week for your doggos! At home I have a 4 year old plott hound that has access to a fenced in yard and three walks a day. My cat gets free roam of the house (of course).

Evelyn is our go-to sitter! She watched Millie while I was away for the weekend for a funeral, and the peace of mind I experienced knowing my dog and home are in capable, kind hands significantly enabled me to be present in my grief with my family. I wish I could add more stars.
England is amazing! She sent us photos and updates and silly moments with our dogs. Our dogs get food toppers and one gets medications and she did a wonderful job handling all of it. One of our dogs is reactive and she was able to handle him well. She also went above and beyond caring for them. We had only asked for one walk daily but she not only walked them but also took them out to a field and gave them plenty of play time! She also played with them a ton in the house and gave them plenty of cuddles. They can get a bit anxious/wary of new people but they warmed up to her immediately with cuddles and kisses. Overall, she did an amazing job caring for our dogs and we definitely recommend her and will be booking with her again!
Lesley has cared for my cats twice now, and both times I’ve had total peace of mind knowing they were in such capable, loving hands! Her genuine affection for animals is obvious and I always return to content, well-looked-after kitty cats. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again.. if you’re looking for a sitter, you found her!
I would easily hire Stephanie again. She took great care of Ollie the week we were gone and sent pictures and updates throughout the week. She even remembered to take the trash/recycle out and at the end sent a very cute digital drawing of my doggie that she had done which was so sweet 🥲 so thankful she took such great care of Ollie!
Grace has house sat for us several times to care for our dog and cat, and we truly can’t imagine leaving them with anyone else. She takes such wonderful care of them, sends thoughtful updates every day, and somehow we always come home to a house that looks even better than when we left it. We’re always thrilled when she’s available — she gives us complete peace of mind while we’re away.
Ashli did a wonderful job taking care of our boys. She sent us pictures and updates and followed our overly detailed (lol) instructions perfectly. I didn't worry about the dogs at all which is worth every penny to me. I highly recommend Ashli for dog/house sitting.
Janine did a great job watching our two dogs. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about them. It gave us peace of mind knowing they were in good hands, and they were happy and well cared for when we got back. We’d definitely trust Janine to watch them again and highly recommend her.
Natalia went above and beyond caring for my pets and home! We actually planned our 9 day vacation around her availability we love her so much! We have 2 beagles (1 is reactive) and 1 cat. All of our pets love her and she does well handling our reactive dog! Since this trip was extra long her husband and dog stayed a few nights too and my reactive dog liked her dog a lot! A couple days before our trip, our cat had some unexpected health issues and we had to give her 2 different meds, multiple times a day and different administering methods the entire time we were away but Natalia but put our minds at ease and was up for the challenge and kept us in the loop with how our cat was doing. She truly cares about the pets she sits as if they were her own! She always sends updates with photos/videos and leaves the house cleaner than when we left. We plan to move away this summer so this is likely the last time she will be sitting for us and I almost don't want to move so we can keep her as our sitter! We will miss her so much! If you are a 'type A' pet parent like myself and have a hard time leaving your fur babies then you will not regret booking with Natalia!
