“Michele did a great job watching our Livia while we were in CA. We were very comfortable knowing she was well taken care of. Michele took Livia for a morning walk daily and kept us updated with pictures and notes. She is highly recommended and we wouldn't hesitate to use her again.”
“Jordyn came through for me when I had a last minute work trip! I was able to trust Jordyn to house sit and take care of my dog Greta. Great, professional communication and attention to detail. 100% star sitter!”
“Mark was MORE THAN WONDERFUL!!! I’m usually a worry wart when leaving my cats or dog, but Mark really put my mind at ease. I knew my sweet babies were in good hands. He followed on instructions to a tee, asked questions for clarification, and sent us many, many pictures of our pets. I missed my 3 cats so much, but Mark made leaving them a little easier by taking such thorough care of them. We will not hesitate to book with Mark again in the future.”
“Grace was great! She was responsive, sent videos and pictures, and made me feel comfortable. My dog got sick before we left town and she was sensitive and kind and gave extra attention. We will have her again the next time we go out of town.”
“Great experience with Allegra. She took excellent care of my pups and kept the house spotless. The dogs were in such a good mood when I returned, which tells me everything I need to know. Will definitely book again!”
“Jacqueline took good care of my Jojo while I had to be on a work trip. She always communicated with me, sent pictures, and Jojo enjoyed being with her. Jojo is a reactive dog, and Jacqueline handled it well. I definitely recommend Jacqueline for dogwalking, sitting, etc!”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life. Currently live with 2 dogs and 2 cats, and my family has 3 other dogs! I’ve dog-sat for many years, both staying at homes and frequently checking in. I have a natural way of connecting with animals, and I love spending time with them! During the summer, I will have availability to walk dogs, let dogs out, and care for pets during the day and evenings on weekdays. June weekdays I am available after 12, and July weekdays I am available all day. Weekend availability is not consistent throughout the summer. I live with two dogs and two cats. I walk the dogs frequently, feed them breakfast and dinner, and keep their spaces clean and safe! I monitor pets as they chew on toys, and throw away toys that could be dangerous. Managing 4 pets is a handful, but I love it!
“Kylee is very knowledgeable and experienced with animals. She was flexible and accommodating with my pets' various needs (2 dogs and 2 cats, 2 of whom are senior with health conditions and special dietary and supplement needs). Everything was kept clean and she was communicative throughout. All of our pets were happy and relaxed upon our return. I highly recommend Kylee and her team!”
“Indre was again a pleasure to work with. In short notice, she took care of Sadie. Indre sent many pictures, and kept in contract through the entire time. I would highly recommend Indre to watch anyone’s pets.”
“Judith and Cynthia were terrific. Pets were happy upon our return but I could see they were relaxed and had been well cared for. We will definitely seek these sitters out in the future. Thank you!”
“Joseph was great with our dogs, they were in a great mood when we got home! Good communicator and house sitter. He’s stayed with our dogs twice now and we will definitely book him again!”
“Hannah was outstanding. Our schedule changed slightly at last moment and Hannah changed her schedule to accommodate and arrive to our home and be with Harley soon after we had to leave. Hannah kept us up to date and posted lots of photos of our beloved Dog Harley as well as all the walks and loving she provided. We came home to Happy puppy and very clean home. Hannah was awesome and we look forward to having her sit with our dog again in the future.”
“Megan was amazing! We've never had a more understanding sitter. Even after our plans changed (too many times to count), Megan was awesome and helpful and extremely responsive. We got tons of photos and the dogs looked very happy. Definitely book her!”
“Victoria was awesome! She was just what our pups needed while we were away and we felt very safe with her staying in our home. I hope that we found our go-to sitter when we travel in the future!!”
“Abigail was an amazing dog sitter for our little rescue dog. He can be a tricky one with lots of separation anxiety, but Abigail was such a great support and comfort to him. She was very communicative and tried everything she could to make sure he was happy and healthy. She went above and beyond and we are so thankful to have had her as our sitter!”
“Carrie was fantastic! She took great care of my very senior pup. 😊 She kept me updated with text messages and pictures while I was away. And she was very flexible with her availability which was appreciated.”

Grace was such a great sitter and friend to Wrigley. She provided updates, photos, and videos. Having a senior dog it is hard for them to change their routine but Grace came to our home, did a meeting with Wrigley even before the days she was scheduled for. I cannot say enough positive things all I can guarantee is I would not let just anyone stay with my German Shepherd but Grace was perfect and I will definitely call on her again.
Kaitlyn did a great job taking care of my cat while I was gone for the long weekend. My cat has a special wet food diet, and she was able to feed him on time every day. My cat is very social, and she spent time visiting with him. Shared photos and videos during every visit. I will be hiring her again!!!!
Shiloh was absolutely great! She took such good care of our fur babies and kept our house just as we had left it. She even stayed an extra night when our flight home got canceled without any hesitation. We are so grateful and I would highly recommend her services!
