“Savana was great with our pups, giving them all the attention they needed and then some! We didn’t have to worry. They were in their home and loved for 9 days and we appreciate all she did! Looking forward to next time! 💕”


“Antonia was outstanding! We knew ahead of time our fur babies were in great hands and we were not disappointed. Antonia was in contact with us, sending photos and updating us along the way. Vacation was much more relaxing knowing our dogs were happily in their home being loved on. Such a great find for our family!”


“Amazing care! We got so many pictures and a few videos throughout the 11 days and Hero was well taken care of. He has a habit of eating things he shouldn't and there was only one minor incident that we were told of right away (and thankfully hasn't caused any issues). We're looking forward to booking them again!”


“That’s such a sweet detail — here’s the updated review with that added in: ⸻ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ She was absolutely wonderful with Ozzie, Molly, and Pita. Her calm, low-key energy was just what they needed. When I got home, everyone was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. She even took the time to run water for Pita, which he loves. It was such a thoughtful touch! It gave me real peace of mind knowing they were in such capable and caring hands. I’ll definitely be using her again.”


“Kayla watched our two pups this past weekend and did a fantastic job. She sent pics throughout the visit and kept us updated on how they were doing. You could tell they felt right at home with her! Highly recommend for any of your sitting needs!”

“Great experience with Jesse! She took good care of my dog and sent updates throughout the weekend.”


“Eva did an amazing job watching our pup! She was very responsive and adaptable. She took great care of our rambunctious 5 month old puppy for a weekend! She sent lots of updates and pictures and we came home to a very very happy puppy! Can't say enough good things!”


“Solenny house sat the day with my animal family and was great, super professional and very communicative. My pets were very well taken care of, would highly recommend!”


“Grayson took care of Kosmo, our 2 year old dog for 8 days which was the longest we'd been away from him. I consider him high maintenance because of his high energy and need for attention and alot of exercise. Grayson sent us daily updates of what she was doing with him and pictures which gave us huge peace of mind. She even took him out when it was raining which I know from experience can be a huge pain. We knew our pup was in great hands. When we came home the house was spotless and she did the laundry and dishes which was above and beyond!! Grayson is an absolute pro and I highly recommend her!”


About: I grew up on a farm in Pennsylvania, with two chocolate labs, a dozen barn cats, and various other farm animals! I also ran a small pet-sitting business in my neighborhood when I was a young teen. I absolutely adore animals, and caring for them has been second nature to me since I was young. I have a wide range of experience from fiesty barn animals to cuddly couch potatoes. I typically work 3-4 days at the end of the week, which leaves Monday through Wednesday (Sometimes Thursday!) completely open. I’m available for pet sitting, walks, and drop ins. I can even accommodate walks and drop ins on the days I do work, depending on my schedule. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely and keep routines as consistent as possible—whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, medication, or playtime. I know how important it is for pets to feel secure in their own space, so I always move slowly with shy animals and give lots of love to the social ones! If caring for pets in my own home, I provide a cozy, stress-free environment with plenty of attention, enrichment, and quiet spaces for rest. Cleanliness, safety, and comfort are my top priorities. I treat every pet like part of the family, whether they’re here for a visit or I’m looking after them in their own home.

About: I’ve loved dogs ever since I was a kid. I’ve been dog walking and house sitting since I was 10. I’ve walked all types of dogs from small to big. I’m also a pet owner myself and have been a proud dog owner for over 10 years. I’m currently working part time so my schedule is fully available for any of your needs. My dog is friendly with others and loves to play with others I have a yard where dogs can play and I also believe in taking dogs out to open spaces to allow them to get their energy out. There’s a big field behind my house where I love to take my dog to.

“Jaimee is wonderful with Murphy! He has a lot of anxiety and we can always tell he’s been so relaxed when she stays!”



About: I've grown up with dogs of all sizes—from tiny dachshunds to big shepherds—so I’m confident caring for pups with all kinds of personalities. As an avid hiker, I love staying active and always bring a four-legged friend along for the adventure. Whether it’s a slow stroll or a high-energy outing, I make sure every dog feels safe, loved, and exercised. 🐶⛰️ I work full time but start early, so I’m free by mid-afternoon—and I’d love to spend that time working with dogs. I grew up with dogs of all sizes and have a natural comfort around them. Whether it’s a quick walk or some extra playtime, I’ll make sure your pup is well cared for and happy! When caring for someone else’s dog, I’m always cautious and respectful—because I know I’m being trusted with a very important part of their life. I never take that lightly. I use a bright, high-visibility leash and always keep a secure handheld grip to ensure your dog’s safety. I stay fully present on every walk or home visit, constantly observing your dog’s behavior to make sure they’re comfortable, not overwhelmed, and enjoying their time. Your dog’s well-being is my top priority.

About: With a large yard and work from home schedule I am able to give any pet the attention and care they require. I have had pets, mainly dogs for my entire life and enjoy spending my time with them. I have a corgi that needs a lot of attention since I am home all the time I am able to provide him with the best care. I give my dog daily walks, occasional treats, on time meals and a comfortable schedule that works for me and my dog. I make sure to give my dog plenty of attention, care and love which all dogs require. I also do not believe in putting dogs in cages or keeping them locked up in rooms or anywhere by themselves.


“Maria was great. Showed up on time and was very courteous. I would recommend and use again. Thanks Maria ?”


About: I've owned and cared for dogs since I was three years old. I've always loved them! I've worked at a dog boarding kennel for over a year now and I love it! Before that, I worked at a farm with lots of different animals and I've watched/walked dogs on the side for a long time now. I also have experience with cats as well! I'd love to meet your four-legged friends and family! I work part-time at a dog boarding kennel and my hours are different sometimes. I'm either working 7am - 12:30pm OR 3pm - 7pm. I usually work the afternoon shift (3 - 7). Since I have worked with animals a lot, especially dogs, I definitely consider myself pretty educated. Like I said, I do not offer boarding in my own home but I am more than happy to come to yours and offer my services! If you have any questions about anything, always feel free to contact me! :)

About: i’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, i have my senior baby who is a 13 year old 80lb american bulldog sweetpie, and a year ago i adopted a border collie/ pitty mix who has grown into a 40lb ball of energy. so i have a good understanding of the different types of dogs and how their breed affects their personalities. me and my girlfriend will be doing this together in case of emergencies and to help. she has the same experience i do & she’s 20. we have to keep my puppy entertained for nearly all hours of the day. she goes to the dog park in the mornings for 2+ hours and we take her on hikes. she loves all dogs and is very well trained in all aspects. she loves playdates! i’m working part-time so we will have to schedule times for potty breaks/visits & for walks. i work 5 days a week all different times. i will treat your puppy like i treat my own. i believe in positive reinforcement with bad behaviors & i can incorporate training into the experience. in my experience i find e-collars & prong collars very rewarding. we can go over the tools that work best for you & ur dog as well as treats you will pre-approve. i only believe in the best for you & ur dogs!!

“Kimberly was wonderful with our two pups Teddi and Bear! She was so knowledgeable with our 9 week old puppy. She updated us very frequently and was very professional. Thank you so much!”


“Ryan did a great job watching Penelope and Ollie. He is very friendly, active, and able to keep up with my dogs.He sent me many pictures to let me know how my babies were doing. Will definitely use his services again.”


About: I had an incredible opportunity to foster dogs and cats over a 4 year period and learned all animals need patience and kindness to be healthy! Some of those animals had disabilities and needed special care like medications or treatments as well. I currently work in office Tuesday - Thursday, 9:30 - 5:30. House sitting can be very flexible through out the week and on weekends as well. I currently have a pet free home, so your pet will be my only priority. I do not have a fenced in yard but we do live in a community that has sidewalks and plenty of grass for dog walking.

Nicole F.
“Nicole is such a great addition to our family! During her first meeting with Kiedis, she immediately sat down and gained his confidence by playing with him and petting him. While giving her a rundown of his list of needs during her stay, she diligently took notes. She was able to house sit during our vacation and was a spectacular guest. We came back to a very clean kitchen and the sheets from our guest room where she stayed were washed and folded up for us. She’s an excellent house guest and even better caretaker for our fur baby, so much so that he loves when she comes around!”
