“Jessica showed up for my pets when a sitter from here ghosted us at the very last minute. Even though our booking was last minute, we were able to have a meet and greet (literally came to our house within an hour of us being to chat!) so I am extremely grateful! She took really good care of my fur babies and was respectful of our space! Thank you so much! 🥰”
“We loved having Bri watch our dog! She is incredibly professional and easy to work with. She did a great job maintaining our dogs training and regular schedule while we were gone, sent great updates and left the house so incredibly clean which was so nice to come home to! I would absolutely recommend her to anyone and my pup looks forward to having her back!”
About: With years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes, I know how important it is to find someone you trust. Whether it’s a walk around the block, a drop-in visit, or overnight care, I treat every pup like they’re my own. I’m patient, active, and happy to follow any routines or special instructions you have. From belly rubs to playtime to making sure your dog feels safe and loved, I’ve got it covered. I have an extra-large, high-energy dog of my own, so I’m very comfortable handling big, strong pups. I’m also experienced with senior dogs and those with special needs. Whether it’s administering medication or helping them move around comfortably, I’m happy to follow any routine your dog needs. I’m currently working part-time and am flexible for dog walking, drop-ins, and dog-sitting. I can’t wait to chat to figure out the perfect schedule for you and your pup! I love walking my large breed Bernedoodle we go as little as a mile to five miles. I always carry water bowls on me for our walks and ensure the weather isn’t too hot.
“Jennifer has watched our pup numerous times and does a great job with her. She clearly cares about the pets in her care and makes sure to give us plenty of updates! We always return home to a happy pampered pooch!”
“Ayla is simply the best! She is our go-to sitter because she has always been so wonderful to work with. She takes great care of my quirky pets and is great with communication. She always followed any instructions, and I come home to happy and healthy pets every time. Highly recommend!”
“She was amazing, was able to book her last minute and she was very good with communication. She sent photos and videos while she was over watching our dog and even left a note! Would highly recommend and will definitely be using her again!”
“If you need a house/dog sitter, look no further! Lauren was absolutely awesome. We have a 100lb Doberman who is very sweet but he is high energy and can be a lot to handle for people not used to large high energy dogs. Lauren took care of him with no issues at all while staying at our house for 5 nights. She gave him regular walks and spent a ton of time with him. She also was great at sending pictures and updates. Finally, she took great care of our house and respected our rules. She was great all around!”
“Mike was absolutely wonderful. He watched our pups in our home and I felt safe and stress free. My dogs were in such great care. They loved him... maybe a little too much! I would definitely book with him again.”
“Jacen did a fantastic job!!! We booked for 6 separate nights for stay overs at our house and everything went smoothly. Jacen is flexible and even watered our plants and took down some trash while we were gone. The cats were well taken care of and the communication was excellent. Highly recommend Jacen!”
“Kacy took care of my two energetic dogs for a few days while we were away. She took great care of them, sent us pictures often and asked any questions needed to make sure they had the best care possible. We will 100% be reaching out again in the future.”
“Nicole watched our dog for 8 days in our home and did an amazing job! She is awesome with our anxious Shorty girl! She is also very respectful and thoughtful while in our home and goes above an beyond. We highly recommend Nicole :)”

“Alexsis is so sweet and took awesome care of my puppy and cat while I was away! My pup was taken on walks, given lots of snuggles, and was happy/healthy when I got back. My cat mostly ignored Alexsis lol, but that is standard for her, and she was still well cared for. I’ll definitely be booking her again!”
“Brooke is truly a wonderful, compassionate and caring pet sitter!! Nico loves her!! She took excellent care of him and our home!! I would rate her 10 stars if we could!! Thank you so very much!! We will most definitely have you back as Nico’s Auntie Brooke!!!”

“Natania took wonderful care of our pup while we were away for the weekend. She stayed at our home, kept him on his normal routine, and sent daily updates that gave us peace of mind knowing he was happy and well cared for. She also left our home spotless—we’ll definitely be booking her again :)”
“Katelyn did a great job watching our animals, and I was happy that our shy Great Dane warmed up to her. I like Katelyn’s honesty and conscientious attitude. Thank you Katelyn!”

Emily was phenomenal with our 12-week old Corgi puppy! We sincerely appreciated the meet-and-greet that she offered prior to watching our girl. We know that puppies can be rather spunky and unpredictable, but Emily’s experience and confidence in working with her was reassuring. Certainly recommend booking Emily and we hope to have another opportunity to book her in the future, too!

Sarah was very caring over our senior dog and her special needs. It was comforting knowing our dog was in caring hands while we were overseas. We had flight delays that she assured us she would care for our sweet dog if needed and fortunately wasn’t needed. She was a great house sitter as well. Would definitely use her again. We had peace of mind while away. Our first day home , even tho she was thrilled to have us back, our little dog was looking for her in the house. Grateful to Sarah for all she did.
Lexie was amazing! We went out of state to attend a funeral, and while we were gone a severe winter storm came in. She endured a cold house waiting for a heat problem to be repaired in our home, along with dealing with a ton of snow. She never missed a beat and took great care of our 2 dogs and cat. Will definitely use her again and can’t thank her enough for all she did.
