“Kathleen took great care of our senior cat and our home. She navigated some technical challenges with our alarm system with professionalism and good humor. Highly recommend. Will definitely re-book.”
“Cashae was a wonderful sitter for our 2 pups!! She is a Dog Lover for sure! She took great care of our dogs. She was with the dogs 24/7. It meant a lot to me knowing that Cashae was a perfect fit as a dog mom, while we were gone for awhile...I highly recommend Cashae!!?”
“Tabitha is WONDERFUL! My dog is very emotionally needy (has anxiety), and I needed a sitter very last minute. Tabitha came to the rescue and was so attentive with Franny and did such a good job with her! I really trust her and i can’t wait to use her again 🙂”
“I came home to happy and healthy dogs! Although they are normally anxious and nervous about new people, Kevin connected with my two dogs very quickly during our meet and greet, easing my own nerves. He communicated throughout the sit and I was grateful to always get a quick response when needed. Highly recommend and I will be rebooking him for sure!”
“Naya is a repeat house sitter for my big silly pit mix and my elderly cat. She does an incredible job of following all instructions and balancing the needs of my dog and senior cat. We trust Naya!”
“Dorothy was great with my dogs, and sent me pictures each day I was away. They loved her! I was comfortable and had little worry about how they well they would be taken care of. She may have spoiled them more then me. Would recommend her and will be using her services again.”
“Shania did a wonderful job caring for Hampton and Neko on her first stay with us. She was very communicative and kept me updated with great pictures throughout her overnight stay. I also really appreciated how she left the house in excellent condition. Highly recommended, and I’ll definitely book with her again!”
About: I have taken care of two smaller dogs the past 3 years and have learned the hard work that comes with them. I have also volunteered at BARCS for dog days out. I am comfortable with leash trained dogs and understand feeding schedules, potty breaks, and playtime. Hello! I am currently a college student working a part-time internship and taking a summer class! I am often available on weekends and monday, wednesday, and friday nights. I know how to crate dogs if needed and have reliable transportation to an emergency vet if needed. I have grown up around cats and dogs all my life so I understand the importance of keeping your pet safe.
“Sierra did a great job dogsitting my senior dog and housesitting while I was out of town for a long weekend! She sent updates and pictures, which was very reassuring!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for a long time as I’ve had many dogs myself throughout my life! I love animals so much!! I work at a school full time from the end of August until the beginning of June. I will be available full time during the summer Monday-Friday all day! I have a fenced yard where your pupper will be able to walk around freely! I will also take them for walks around the neighborhood and to the park! I am willing to travel to you as well! My senior dog recently passed away and would love company!
“Came home to happy, well taken care of babies and it’s all I could ask for. There was a mild snag while we were gone and we figured it out together. Wouldn’t ask anyone else to watch my 3 animals (and house).”
“Emily took such good care of my two senior dogs. Very kind and patient, and also left my house in great condition after house-sitting. I would definitely recommend and will contact for sitting in the future. Thanks, Emily!”
“Best petsitting experience we've ever had! Julion is communicative, responsive, reliable and a really sweet person. He took great care of our pets and home (and plants! )”
“Keira was great with our old pup Toby while we were out of town. She was knowledgeable about care and Toby was in great hands. She gave updates and photos throughout the stay.”
“I had the pleasure of working with Robyn as my dog walker/dog sitter. From day one, it was clear that Robyn had a genuine love and passion for dogs. Her professionalism and reliability were outstanding. I always knew I could count on her to be on time and take great care of my furry friend. Not only did she ensure my dog got plenty of exercise and fresh air, but she also provided the companionship and attention that my babies need. She made sure to always send daily updates and pictures! What sets Robyn apart is her deep understanding of canine behavior. She knew just how to handle my dog’s personality and needs, making every walk a positive experience. She made sure to ask me about training and what she can do to follow our usual routine as closely as possible. My dogs absolutely adored Robyn and were always excited to see her. Safety was a top priority for Robyn as well. I appreciated the thoroughness in making sure my dog was secure during walks, especially when crossing streets or encountering other dogs. Her attention to detail gave me peace of mind. I can’t recommend Robyn highly enough. She provided exceptional care, trustworthiness, and genuine affection for my pet. If you want a dog walker who goes above and beyond, Robyn is the one to choose. My pups and I are truly grateful for her wonderful service and will be recommending her to family and friends.”
“Samantha stayed in our home with our two girls. She updated me everyday and was a very respectful house guest! Everything was tidy and just where we had left it. The girls were happy and I doubt they missed us at all 😂. I would definitely recommend Sam!”
“Brittney was great! She was able to handle my gargantuan sized Goldendoodle with ease, and give him the love he deserves while I was away. I wouldn’t hesitate to use her again or to refer her to others.”
“Thank you Kathleen for a great stay with our two pups! We are always a bit uneasy leaving our dogs overnight but there wasn’t a time where we had to feel worried about anything over the past 3 nights! Kathleen sent cute pics and updates of our pups, didn’t mind the occasional behavioral issue and was overall such a great sitter who we’d recommend to anyone!”

This was the second time Micah has taken care of our three fur babies and home while we were out of town and I’m confident it won’t be the last. Micah went above and beyond with regular communication and daily updates and photos. She took great care of everything and we came back to a happy home! I would highly recommend you reach out to Micah if you’re looking for a reliable, kind sitter.
Cashae was a wonderful sitter for our 2 pups!! She is a Dog Lover for sure! She took great care of our dogs. She was with the dogs 24/7. It meant a lot to me knowing that Cashae was a perfect fit as a dog mom, while we were gone for awhile...I highly recommend Cashae!!?
Sara did such a lovely job of taking care of our two dogs/house sitting for an extended week. Dogs were obviously well looked after, they took to her immediately, we received frequent updates with pictures, and the house was exactly how we left it (even slightly cleaner). Would highly recommend Sara, and we'd love to have her care for our pets in the future.
We were very happy with Sean as a pet sitter for Bruno, our American Staffordshire Terrier, who is very anxious with new people. Sean's patience and understanding helped Bruno relax quickly. Sean sent daily updates and photos of Bruno playing in the yard and chilling on the couch. Sean also finished giving Bruno the final doses of medication for an UTI developed just before our vacation. We will definitely use Sean in the future.
Trust them completely with our pups and our home. We have a two dog home that includes a senior dog who has mobility issues and medication needs. They’ve never had more exceptional care and are always happy and content when we arrive back home. Same goes for the house. House is clean and always well taken care of. My wife and I even came home to all our mail collected and our recycling put to the curb ❤️
Our animals were all so happy when we returned. After an unexpected vet visit the day before we left and additional meds and care, Shania didn’t miss a bit. She texted to confirm instructions and for guidance to be sure she got things right. We will definitely have her stay with our group again!
Emily was amazing, my boys loved her, and I felt very comfortable leaving them in her care. She was professional and very communicative, the daily photos helped so much. Even when encountering some unexpected issues (on my end) and with Atticus boycotting his meds, she handled them with grace and went above and beyond. I could not recommend Emily enough!
