“Christina did an absolute fantastic job with our boy Gizmo. She was super sweet, very responsive and punctual. She spoiled our boy and took great care of him. We have definitely found our permanent sitter! 🙂”



“I was very pleased with the care my dog, Lucy, received from Drew. She has several medications, and various health concerns and he handled it all with care, and no fuss. Lucy clearly likes him, which is also reassuring. He responded promptly whenever I reached out and kept me updated regularly. It is a relief to have someone reliable like Drew to take care of my dog so I can have a real vacation!”


“Hands down, the best dog sitter/care taker! This was my family's first time having to board our puppy Lilly, and Joseph could not have made me feel more at ease when it came to leaving my dog with him. The entire booking process was quick, and Joseph was very patient, professional, and sufficient. Joseph knows his stuff when it comes to dogs!, he trained my dog to interact with two other dogs he was also boarding at the time. Thank you Joseph, we really appreciate you!”


“Chris and Joe welcomed Jameson so warmly and with lots of love. He got a walk every day and played outside, and even got to meet some grandkids. I couldn't be happier to have found Chris. I know Jameson felt loved on!”


“Gabriela clearly loves dogs. Ours was quite comfortable with her from the start. She also paid attention to details, asking very good questions about our dog’s routine and behaviors. She lives right next to a very nice trail through a park which our dog enjoys. Great communication during the booking and nice updates throughout the stay. We will certainly use Gabriela again!”


“My anxious dog, Jack, was in excellent hands with Jennifer! Jack immediately felt comfortable at her house. Instead of clinging to my side he started roaming around and exploring shortly after we arrived to meet her. The environment was perfect for him. His first overnight stay was a success and we already have a second stay scheduled for an upcoming vacation. Jennifer provided fun updates throughout Jack's stay, and overall was an outstanding communicator throughout the entire process (from time of booking through the stay). Your dog will be in caring hand with Jennifer!”


“Megan watched Russell overnight and although I was nervous leaving him, Megan was the best at making me feel comfortable and at ease . She sent me lots of videos and pictures and very frequent updates . She is dependable, responsible , and loving. He came back tired from playing and happy . I would absolutely use Megan again in the future !”


“Marilyn was absolutely amazing. Very kind and caring, sent photos and always responded to any text messages. She took great care of our cat. We chose Marilyn because she is a retired nurse and our cat is diabetic and requires insulin injections twice a day. We would definitely use her again and refer her to her others in need of pet care. Thanks Marilyn!”


“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our senior pup! Kelli went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable, calm, and loved while we were away. She treated him like one of her own, and it gave us such peace of mind knowing he was in such great hands. He seemed so happy and relaxed, which made our vacation even better. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional care - especially for older dogs who need a little extra TLC!”


“I had a great experience with Felix and her family. Communication was clear and quick. She kept me up to date with how my dogs were doing in her care. Would recommend and would use her again!”


“Melissa and Robert provided excellent care during our vacation. They ensured we felt confident leaving Molly with them by arranging a meet-and-greet with their own dogs, which allowed for a smooth introduction. They sent us photos and videos of Molly during our trip, which we appreciated. I highly recommend Melissa and Robert for anyone seeking dependable and attentive pet care services.”


“We traveled from out of state and needed someone to watch our pup while we were at Sesame Place and having our dog stay with Meghan was so helpful! Very flexible with pickup and drop off and sent lots of pictures of our dog enjoying his time there.”


“It was our first time leaving our boy with Brian and will definitely not be the last. I’m sure Ragnar enjoyed his mini vacation with Teddy and Brian. Teddy and Ragnar just hit it from the start. Our boy came home to us safe and sound. 🥰”


“Absolutely loved our experience with Tom & Tina! We needed a last-minute sitter for our pup Kamala before a staycation, and they came through in the best way. They met with us right away, made sure Kamala had all her shots, and even took her in while she was in heat—something not everyone is willing to do. Their farm is beautiful, with plenty of space and their highly trained sweet golden retrievers. They sent daily videos and pics, which gave us so much peace of mind. They’re patient, kind, and true lifesavers. Highly recommend!”


“Shannon was a great communicator and she was so kind to let me bring my pup later than expected. She sent me pictures during her stay that left me at ease. Her family is so sweet and love their space.”

About: treat every pet like family! I’m a calm, patient, and caring sitter with a flexible schedule and a big heart for animals. What sets me apart is my full attention to each pet’s unique needs — whether it’s a shy dog, a playful puppy, or a senior pet who needs extra care and gentle handling. 🐾 I have experience caring for both small and large breeds, giving medication (oral), and keeping routines consistent. I also provide regular updates, photos, and lots of love so pet parents feel confident and relaxed while away. If your pet needs slow introductions, quiet walks, or just some extra cuddles — I’m here for it! Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. I currently have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets the time, patience, and attention they need — whether it’s morning feedings, afternoon playtime, or peaceful evening cuddles. I’ve always had cats at home, and I’ve also helped care for my friends’ dogs over the years — walking them, feeding them, and making sure they felt calm and loved while their owners were away. Caring for animals is something I truly enjoy, and I’m happy to adjust to each pet’s unique habits and needs. Whether it’s a quick drop-in or a full day of sitting, I make sure every pet feels safe, relaxed, and well cared for. care for pets with calm energy, consistency, and a lot of love. Whether I’m watching a pet in my home or visiting them at their own, I focus on creating a peaceful, safe environment that matches their daily routine. At my home, I make sure pets have a quiet space to relax, access to fresh water, clean bowls, and toys. I keep litter boxes and feeding areas spotless, and I give each pet one-on-one time for cuddles, play, or just peaceful company. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I follow your instructions closely — feeding schedules, walking routines, favorite toys or places to rest. I always respect your home and leave everything clean and just as I found it. I also send regular photo updates so you can feel confident and connected. My goal is always the same: to make your pet feel safe, loved, and stress-free until you’re back.

“Colin and Levi were SO welcoming to my Zorro. There were lots of photos (with funny captions) that came every day. Just the best that I could have hoped for! I will be using Colin again soon and have no worries at all that he and Levi will make him feel right at home!”
