“Jeweliana and Riley did a wonderful job taking care of my two dogs, Ruby and Sydney. Jeweliana communicate with me daily through text and pictures. We were very happy with their care that they provided for the dogs.”


“Victoria was amazing with our girls, and gave them all the special attention needed for the 4th of July festivities. We’re so appreciative to feel confident in the great care she takes with both our senior dog and young one, as well as our home.”


“Mackenna did an amazing job with Bux and Bru! She was communicative, reliable, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. Both pups were happy, well-cared for, and clearly loved spending time with her. We’ll definitely be booking with her again—highly recommend!”


“Bri was absolutely amazing with my fur babies. They loved her as soon as they met her. She spent so much time making sure they got plenty of attention while I was gone. Also, Bri went above and beyond to make sure my house was tidy when I returned from my trip. I will be using her again and again!😁🐾🐾”


“Ligia did an awesome job watching my fur babies. Usually when I leave the pets I hear about it from my Great Dane. There’s a lot of “aaaawooo, howwwoll, growwwllly” when I come in the door but this time she was very calm and content. I could tell she had a great time with Ligia.”

“Katherine was amazing!! She was great with sending updates and keeping us in the loop with our babies! Can not recommend enough!! Thank you Katherine!! ☺️”


“Alex watched our dogs for over two weeks and we couldn't be happier with the care they received. She stayed with them through thunderstorms and fireworks, which was a huge relief because one of our pups has bad anxiety. She also provided us with daily updates and pictures, administered their medications, and kept our home as tidy as we left it. We are so happy we found Alex and would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter!”


“I’ll start by saying that before choosing Megan we looked at quite a few of the sitters on this site. We left on 22 December and return on January 3. That being said it was a lot to ask of any sitter to babysitter over the holidays on such short notice. When I met Megan, I felt so comfortable with her. She stayed for a meet and greet for quite a while to get used to our animals. She accepted our timeslots, even though it was over the holidays. We felt like she was more than worth what she was charging as she was losing time with her family over the holidays and offering to stay with our pets so that we could go out of state to spend time with ours. It was very important to us that we had someone we could trust she was staying in our home to sit for our animals, I can say that I am so happy that we chose her. She was amazing. Gave us daily updates videos and made us comfortable. We were able to enjoy our visit without having to worry about our animals. They are not enough stars to rate for the job that she did and the peace of mind that we had. I would highly recommend her and would definitely use her again. Megan thank you so much. We appreciate everything that you did for us.🦮🐈⬛ Buddy and Zoie miss you ❤️❤️❤️”

“Excellent!! Megan is reliable, caring and thorough. And, she ia a smart, very nice person. We are new to area and reached out to her for one week of day and overnight help for our two dogs. They loved her! We’ll definitely contact her first for all our puppy sitting needs!”


“When I came home my cat was in good spirits. She has a tendency for anxiety, so this was wonderful to see. The pictures and video of my cat were greatly appreciated- my cat was very happy in Jennifer’s care.”


“Dawn was great. She came and visited with before she sat with our dog. During our trip she kept us up to date with daily reports and pictures. Most importantly our dog loves her.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 10. I grew up a military brat, have worked with all different kinds of dogs. Even fostering around 10+ dogs and taking care of them. I have had 2 dogs in my life personally. Grew up in a household where we always had a pet and how to take care of animals. I am very adaptable and hardworking. I don’t judge animals based off breed. I like to be outside and would be available to take your pet out happily. I do work a job so some days I am available to do same day bookings. I had a small senior westiepoo who has a crate that sits under the table. She was trained by me. Now, I have welcomed a new little small dog in my life over the last year he is crate trained my me as well. Along with all the other basics. If you have a crate trained dog I understand how that works or a fenced in yard to where they can’t escape from . I also have a cuddle dog so if your pet is a cuddly that’s no problem with me! Recently, with my new dog I’ve been learning how dogs deal with separation anxiety as he is a needy little guy. If your furbaby is anxious or attachment driven I feel pretty confident I’m having the patience to help them.
