“Alex did a great job with our dog and sent updates/pics as requested. Very quick to respond to texts. Our dog can take awhile to warm up to new people so I was amazed he took to her very quickly. I would not hesitate to recommend Alex and am looking forward to booking her in the future!”
“Gabrielle was wonderful. She was responsive and great with my two cats. You can tell how much she loves animals. I would absolutely recommend her and would love to have her watch my boys again.”

About: While being in the military for the past few years my colleagues would ask me if I could watch their pets while they went on away on vacation, deployment, etc. Ive been told I do a very good job of taking care of them. Currently Im a full time student and I have a part time job, but my schedule is flexible enough to fit in time to care for pets when given notification ahead of time. Typically my care consists of 2-3 walks a day. I have a very active lifestyle so if more is needed I can do that. I stick to the feeding time instructions that are given to me. If brushing is desired I can happily do that as frequent as needed. Lastly I take pictures of myself spending time with the pet and send them to the owners so they can have reassurance that their pet is being well looked after.
“Kate is a fantastic cat-sitter. My cat loved her. If her drop-in time needed to be slightly delayed, she made sure to let me know (and I was fine with it).”
“Mikaela did an amazing job with Finn and he behaved as if he had already known her. Definitely will use her again down the line and highly recommend”
“Brianna has taken care of my pets a few times now. She has always been very reliable and thorough. I like her very thorough messages and photos. She is great with my dog and my cat.”
“Niki clearly loves dogs and was very patient with our shy dog who eventually warmed up to her for a drop in visit. She was also considerate of my mother-in-law who was visiting at the time. Top notch trustworthy service! Thank you Niki!”
“Fantastic sitter. So much love, care and attention given to our dog, Bonzo!”

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.
About: I've was in the Navy as a K9 trainer/ handler for the last 9 years traveling the world protecting official dignitaries and safeguarding U.S. critical infrastructure. I've spent my life training some extremely high energy breeds AND cleaning up those high energy messes! I am well equipped to cover your home while you're catching some vacation time, or if you'd like some training tips and tricks, I can do it all! Presently taking a gap year while I apply for different jobs since I left the Navy, my availability is quite open, as long as I'm not traveling. I come from a very diverse background of training practices and habits. I can cater to whatever needs you require from complex instructions to dogs that just need a little more training!
About: I’ve taken care of many dogs of all kind since I was 14. I’ve had my own pet-sitting business since I was in 10th grade. I also had tons of dog experience when I worked at three doggie daycares. I also fostered puppies last year and have experience training them. I’m going to school for pre-vet medicine after I graduate. I’m currently still in my senior year of high school and I get out at 3, so I’m most busy during the week but can still come and hang out with your pet(s)! I don’t have any jobs besides my pet-sitting business so I can stay with your pet(s) all day if needed on weekends! I can do whatever you need and want me to do! Whether that be staying with them or keeping them in a crate, I’m comfortable doing what is best for your pet.
“Candace is wonderful! She was able to watch my cats on only a few days notice so we could attend an out of state funeral. Highly recommend Candace!”
“Portia provided excellent care for my senior cat during a recent 6-day travel trip. My fur baby can be cranky, but I truly believe Portia understands cats and that their personalities can be different. Portia took the time to schedule a meet-and-greet that went great! This really put my mind at ease! My cat and I felt very comfortable with Portia. I plan to request Portia for future cat visits when I travel.”

Mira B.
“Mira has been a fantastic help with our extra-large Bernedoodle and our special-needs senior Jack Russell who cannot walk on his own. She easily connects with our dogs and is dependable, punctual, and highly experienced. Her patience and attention to detail and genuine care for animals is evident in how she handles each dog’s unique needs. Mira ensures both dogs stick to their routine and that the energetic Bernedoodle stays well-exercised. Whenever the dogs are with Mira they are relaxed and happy. If you’re looking for someone who is reliable, trustworthy, caring, attentive and a capable caregiver —even with special-needs dogs or very large, energetic breeds—Mira is an excellent choice.”
Raymond D.
“Raymond has been incredible with our pets which are numerous. But what's more important is our pets love seeing him and his happy demeanor coming through the door. He is honest and trustworthy thus I have no problem having him come into our home to care for our beloved furry babies.”
