“Annalise was wonderful! She was very understanding of our reactive dog and was so gentle with her! She also handled our puppy really well too. She was also very flexible with our schedule. And our pups had a great time with her. Our house was just as we left it and we would definitely use her again!”


“I am extremely happy with my pet-sitting experience with Donita! She came by the house a couple times before my trip to meet my 2 Westie dogs and they all took to each other from the start. I originally booked Donita for 7 days which turned into 11 days and she extended her visit to accommodate me. I received daily updates and pictures, my girls had too much fun with her! She left my home clean and in perfect condition! I am VERY pleased and would hire Donita again in a heartbeat! Thank you from Kay, Mia and Molly!”

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities! I have a 3-year-old Australian Shepherd, so I know firsthand what it takes to care for a high-energy, crazy dog of my own! I’ve worked through training challenges and reactivity after he experienced a traumatic event as a puppy. Because of that, I have a lot of patience and empathy, especially with pups who need a little extra attention or structure. I also have two sweet cats at home and grew up around animals my whole life, so I’m totally comfortable with multi-pet households. Friends and family often trust me to care for their pets when they’re away, and I always make sure to stick to routines and give pets the love and attention they need while their humans are gone. Whether it’s a playful puppy, a senior dog who needs a gentler pace, or a cat who likes their own space, I’ve got you covered! Pet care fits naturally into my daily life, I already spend a lot of time walking, playing with, and caring for my own Aussie, so I love adding more furry friends to the mix! I’m off on weekends, work from home on Tuesdays, and my weekday schedule is generally flexible. I’m typically at work from 9–5, but if that’s too long for your pet to be alone, just let me know! I’m more than happy to flex my schedule when I can to make sure your pet gets the care and attention they need. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priority. I’m more than happy to follow any instructions you provide, down to the smallest detail, so your pets can stick to the routines they know and love. Whether it’s special feeding, medications, or just the way they like to be tucked in at night, I’m here to make sure they feel safe and cared for. In your home, I’ll treat your space with the same care and respect I would my own. I want both you and your pet to feel at ease, knowing they’re in loving hands. I’ll keep you updated along the way so you never have to wonder how things are going, just a little extra peace of mind while you're away.

“Sarah was wonderful! Very communicative and in tune with our pets needs. I felt grateful knowing our doggo was in good hands! She house sat for us for the weekend and was respectful of our home and I would be grateful to work with Sarah again!”


“Melissa was wonderful with my kitties! I had her stay overnight at my place while I was out of town and she kept me updated and sent me pictures of them every day :) she was very attentive to their needs and I came home to some very happy boys! I'll be using Melissa for any future pet sitting needs!”


“Emily did an outstanding job caring for our dog, cat, and home. She is an excellent communicator and our pets instantly loved her. We loved her updates and felt so comfortable knowing all was well. We highly recommend Emily!”


“Imani did an incredible job caring for my senior Chihuahua and two cats! Our lil elderly guy has congestive heart failure and requires life-saving medication every morning and night — missing a dose could trigger a serious episode where he can’t breathe properly. As you can imagine, I was very anxious about leaving him for the first time since his diagnosis. But Imani was everything I could’ve hoped for in a sitter — attentive, reliable, and so kind with my animals. She asked thoughtful questions during the meet & greet, kept me updated with lots of photos, and made sure everyone was safe and loved while I was away. I’ll absolutely be rebooking her for future house sitting and check-ins. Thank you so much, Imani!! 🥹❤️”


“Briauna did an amazing job watching my cat and dog. She sent me photos while I was gone that made my heart so happy every time. I could tell my pets loved her and were comfortable! So thankful to have found her and will definitely rebook with her in the future. 🙏❤️✨🙌💕 Thank you Briauna!”
