“Rhonda was fantastic! Her background and experience were the perfect fit for our senior dog and allowed us to travel with no worries! We will absolutely book her again and recommend her to everyone we know!”
“I can not put into words how wonderful Jill was. Her communication was constant and consistent. She sent me pictures and videos of my sweet dog each day! She cared for my home and left it spotless, My dog adored her. She is my new go to pet sitter. There are not enough words to describe the peace she gave me while I was out of town! Call her, you will NOT be disappointed. Thank you Jill!”

“I would highly, highly recommend Kristie! She did such an amazing job with our dog Josie, who had just lost her sister a few days before we went away. Kristie made sure that Josie was comforted and had all the extra love and care so she didn't feel lonely. We also received daily pictures and updates so we knew Josie was well taken care of. Having lost a dog before we left, we were uneasy about leaving Josie behind. But Kristie made us feel 100% like Josie was in the best hands and we knew she genuinely cared for her like she was her own. That was very meaningful to us. And, when we returned home, Kristie left a very thoughtful gift for us, which was a plant in memory of the dog we had just lost. I can't say how much that meant to us. Again, highly, highly recommend Kristie!”


“Emily did an amazing job watching our dogs over the weekend! She was very responsible, reliable, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. She kept us updated and made sure our pups were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter.”

“I was so impressed with Amalia's attention to detail and compassion for my baby, Fitty (my cat-son). Amalia made me feel so comfortable so I could really enjoy myself away. Thanks so much Amalia, you did a great job and I will be hiring you again!”

“Deborah was fantastic! She stayed in touch daily. She brushed Piper sometimes twice a day! She walked her every day multiple times. Played ball with her and definitely took her for a really fun car ride! Deborah also took fantastic care of our house! We will most definitely use her again.”

About: Hi! I’m Kristen. I’m a lifelong animal lover and proud Labradoodle mom to my girl, Ecko. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets, and I treat every animal in my care like they’re part of my own family. I work from home as a recruiter, so I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give your pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I provide care exclusively in your home, where your pets are most comfortable and can stick to their normal routine. Services I Offer: * 🐶 Dog Walking * 🏡 House Sitting (Overnights in Your Home) * Drop-In Visits * 🐱 Cat Care * Medication Administration * Feeding & Fresh Water * Exercise & Playtime * Potty Breaks & Litter Box Cleaning * Light Grooming (Brushing, Paw Wipes, etc.) * Photo & Video Updates * Care for Other Pets (Just Ask!) I’ve been caring for dogs for over 8 years and have experience with cats, puppies, senior pets, and pets that need medication or a little extra patience. Every pet has their own personality, and I enjoy getting to know what makes each one happy and comfortable. Whether you’re heading out for the day or taking a longer trip, my goal is for you to have complete peace of mind. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages, and I’ll make sure your pets get the love, attention, and care they deserve while you’re away. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets. Feel free to reach out with any questions—I look forward to hearing from you! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work from home as a recruiter, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate time throughout the day to caring for pets. Whether it’s a midday walk, drop-in visit, feeding, medication administration, or simply spending quality time with a pet, I can easily accommodate visits during the day, evenings, and many weekends. As a proud Labradoodle mom of 8 years, caring for animals has been part of my everyday life for a long time. Spending time with pets is genuinely something I enjoy, and I love being able to use my flexible schedule to help local pet owners while giving their pets the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. I also know how important communication is when you’re away from your pet. During visits, I provide plenty of updates, photos, and videos so you can see exactly how your furry family member is doing and have peace of mind knowing they’re happy, safe, and well cared for. I care for every pet as if they were my own. In a client’s home, I do my best to maintain their normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and plenty of affection and attention. I understand that consistency helps pets feel comfortable and secure while their family is away. I always respect my clients’ homes, keep things clean and tidy, and provide regular updates, photos, and communication so pet parents can have peace of mind. Safety is my top priority, and I pay close attention to each pet’s individual personality, needs, and preferences. Whether your pet loves long walks, playing fetch, cuddling on the couch, or simply having a calm companion nearby, I’m happy to accommodate what makes them happiest. 🐾

“This is the 2nd time I’ve used Nicole to watch Wyatt & she’s great. I would recommend her. I go on a lot of long work trips & it’s great knowing my dog is safe ‘ cared for.”

“Hailey was great with our two dogs! She took amazing care of them while we were gone and sent tons of updates and photos. I would definitely trust her with my dogs again.”

“Makayla was an incredible sitter for Teddy while we were away on a trip. She was great with communication and followed all instructions given. She sent plenty of pictures and updates so I knew Teddy was having a great time. I would highly recommend Makayla!”

“Morgan was wonderful to work with. She took great care of our dogs and house and communicated daily with updates and photos of our pups. We already have plans to use Morgan again in the near future.”

“It was such a pleasure having Oline watch my pack overnight. She has such a calm and serene presence that it didn’t take long for them to match her energy. Also, this woman takes FABULOUS pictures! I’m going to frame some. Thank you again, Oline ❤️”


“She was amazing! House under construction, my schedule was chaos and i started my day at 6 am. She was flexible, able to handle construction workers and a dog in a bare bones house, and worked with me when i ended up being 4 hours late. Absolutely a repeat customer”

About: I have fostered pets and cared for small dogs! I have also cared for hamsters, kittens, and elderly pets. I am happy to spend time with your pets! I currently have an open availability to care for your pets! My colleague Micah is also available to provide pet care on days/times when I'm not available. Kindly message me for times and days and we can work around that schedule! I make sure to keep my environment safe for pets by putting away cable cords, choking hazards, or anything else that may pose a safety risk to pets.
“Barbara always takes such good care of our dogs! She stayed at our house this time and did a wonderful job. We love receiving the regular updates she sends. We know Dixie and Cupid are in great hands with Barbara!”


“Roni was very punctual and kept in great contact throughout the weekend. He stayed at our house for two nights and walked our dog and kept great care of her as well as our home. Really nice, conscientious guy who is a seminary graduate with a real love and kindness for animals.”

“Haley is the best sitter we have had! She takes the time to meet and understand your dogs’ needs first. I really appreciate all the updates she provides-videos, photos and messages so you know what is going on with your babies. She is extremely kind to my dogs and communicates very well. Highly recommend!”

Jessica was wonderful! She was communicative, reliable, and made me feel completely at ease leaving my two dogs in her care. She kept me updated throughout their stay, and it was clear they were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I would absolutely book with Jessica again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring Rover sitter.

Nicole was such a gem to watch our three high needs dogs! She was so good with our old man, our Velcro dog, and our Pitbull that is scared of her own shadow. They are not an easy crew as they all require a lot of attention, but she cared for them as if they were her own which made me feel calm and confident to leave my babies with her! She kept us up to date with many photos and left our home clean. Would 10000% hire her again!!

Nicole was wonderful with my senior dog Daisy. This was my first time leaving her overnight since she was diagnosed with a high-grade heart murmur, so I wanted someone who would stay with her and make sure her medications were given every 12 hours. Nicole did exactly that. She checked in at the beginning and end of the stay, everything looked great when I got home, and Daisy was happy and well cared for. I wouldn't hesitate to book with Nicole again.

I would highly, highly recommend Kristie! She did such an amazing job with our dog Josie, who had just lost her sister a few days before we went away. Kristie made sure that Josie was comforted and had all the extra love and care so she didn't feel lonely. We also received daily pictures and updates so we knew Josie was well taken care of. Having lost a dog before we left, we were uneasy about leaving Josie behind. But Kristie made us feel 100% like Josie was in the best hands and we knew she genuinely cared for her like she was her own. That was very meaningful to us. And, when we returned home, Kristie left a very thoughtful gift for us, which was a plant in memory of the dog we had just lost. I can't say how much that meant to us. Again, highly, highly recommend Kristie!

Maria was great with our babies. She shared sweet pictures and was super communicative with us while we were gone. One of our girls can get really nervous when it’s stormy, and she did a great job working with her. We appreciated her patience and understanding. We would gladly use Maria again!

Lina took care of my dog and cat for two weeks while I was away, and I’m very grateful for all her help. She was sweet, caring, communicative, and clearly gave my pets a lot of attention and love while I was gone. My dog can be a little anxious and high maintenance at times, and she was very patient with him throughout the stay. It gave me peace of mind knowing my babies were safe and cared for. Thank you again, Lina 😊

Emily was amazing and took great care of my black lab mix, Sadie. Sadie is 5 YO - I’ve had her 1.5 years and I’m her 4th home, so that poor little girl has PTSD when it comes to meeting new people. Emilie got Sadie to warm up to her and I could tell from the pictures she sent that Sadie was very happy and well cared for — and she got her much loved walks!! Emily was also extremely respectful of my home and left it immaculate. I highly, highly recommend Emily!!!

Esther was wonderful for housesitting our pug, Willow. She sent daily updates and photos, which really helped calm the anxiety of worrying about how my dog was doing while I was gone. Willow had such a great time with Esther and you could tell she really trusted her and felt comfortable. I would absolutely book Esther again!

Reem was absolutely fantastic. She took wonderful care of our 3-year-old golden retriever, and he was happy and clearly well looked after when we returned. She also did an excellent job with our home, leaving everything in perfect order. Her communication throughout the stay was clear, consistent, and reassuring. We were able to fully enjoy our vacation without any worries, knowing everything was in great hands. Reem truly went above and beyond, and we would happily book her again. Highly recommend!
