“Patricia was absolutely amazing with my two boys. Bentley is quite the trouble maker and she was great with him. I loved the updates and pictures she sent me, it put my heart at ease. Very professional and great person. Came home to a clean house. I would definitely recommend her and I would have her watch my two boys again.”


“Mariah was great to have, we had her watching our dog for 2 weeks, she was great at communicating with us and we never had to worry about our dog. We knew he was in great hands!”


“Izzy took great care of our two little dogs—they took to following her around right away. She’s great with communicating, and left the house tidy and spotless. She’s very professional, and we felt comfortable enjoying our time away, knowing that our dogs were in good hands.”


“Ansley was SO attentive to my dog and sent us detailed feedback while out of town. She is so knowledgeable about dogs and went above and beyond to care for our dog who had gotten sick at the last minute before we went out of town. I would absolutely recommend Ansley and book her again”



“Melisa was AWESOME! She took the gig on super short notice and she showed up early ready to go (or sit, as it were)! She took excellent care of our little puppy, which was confirmed via photos. Would HIGHLY recommend Melisa to anyone looking for a dog sitter. She really loves dogs and it shows!”

“After losing a local sitter last minute for a trip, Alex was able to watch over our pups. She seemed very attentive, responsive and communicative throughout our trip. We came home to a clean house and happy pups. We hope to use her services in the future.”


“If you are looking for a caretaker for your pet, give Jim the opportunity to assist. Jim watched my German Shepherd, Levi, for a few days and he did a BRILLIANT job! Jim provided updates and pictures of my happy pooch! Jim did everything I asked and MORE! If you want to have someone who listens and does what is asked, look no further! I couldn't be happier with Jim's care of my very needy, Levi! I will definitely plan future getaways with Jim in the near future! OUTSTANDING! JOB WELL DONE!”


About: Dogs are my passion! I love being a dog mom my 2 golden retrievers, Willow and Casey. I treat my dogs as my own children and can assure I will treat your pup as my own too. I believe dogs are the most loving and loyal creatures and they deserve nothing but the best from their humans. I will pay very close attention to your dog to make sure it is safe at all times. I am responsible and reliable and will keep you updated on every visit and send pictures. I would never put your pet at risk and will make sure to follow your instructions to the best of my ability. My friends always call me the best dog mom because of how spoiled my pups are. I would love to have fun with your fur baby and entertain it while you are away. I am a huge advocate for dogs as I volunteer with local rescue organizations. I can’t wait to meet your pup! I currently work from home, so I have flexibility in my schedule. I am able to do drop ins or walks during the day or hang out with your pup all day at my home. My weekends revolve around my pups, and would love to have fun with your pets as well! I have 2 friendly golden retrievers and a small fully fenced in back yard. The dogs will never even left outside alone, I’ll make sure they also have plenty of fresh water and stick to your feeding schedule and instructions. I am very protective of my dogs and would treat yours as my own.

“What can I say about Abigail? She came through for me in a pinch when my scheduled sitter had to back out for a family emergency, and did a great job. Both the dog and the cat loved her. The dog is leash aggressive, but Abigail said they did great on their walks, which is always a huge concern for me. When my flight home was delayed, she made an additional trip to make sure the dog was able to go to the bathroom. The house looked great when I got home and my furbabies were happy.”


“McKenzie was great! She was willing to do a meet and greet prior and she has such calm and relaxed presence that my doggo really appreciated. She sent pictures of our dog while she was watching him, which is always appreciated. She left the house exactly the way we left it. I can always tell when our dog is well taken care of well and he defiantly was! We will definitely use her again for watching our dog!”


About: I have had dogs in my life since childhood. I have cared for many different sizes and breeds of dogs, including puppies and senior dogs. I have a lot of experience with senior dogs and administering medication. I have taken college courses in animal behavior and went through training courses with my own dog. I was a dog Mom to a handicapped dog for 11 years, so I definitely have the patience to deal with special needs. I also keep my nails long for those extra good belly scratches 🥰 I have a flexible, rotating work schedule that allows me to dedicate my time to caring for your pets without the distractions of my own pets, children, or home responsibilities. I'm available to stay with your furry friends as needed and can work around your schedule to ensure their needs are met. While I may need to leave for work, I will communicate openly with you about my work schedule and your pet's specific requirements in advance. If you have a high-anxiety pet or a young puppy that needs more attention, I can adjust my schedule to spend additional time at home, ensuring they receive the care and comfort they deserve. I provide loving care for your pets right in the comfort of their own home. I will keep your cats indoors unless otherwise requested, and ensure they receive exercise and plenty of attention. Dogs will be exercised according to their needs and your specific guidelines. If you’re comfortable, I’d love to take them to the park or explore scenic hiking trails together. Safety is my priority, so I will never allow your dog off-leash unless they are in a secure, fenced area and you’ve given prior approval to do so. We will enjoy daily walks with a leash and harness, unless you specify otherwise. Additionally, I will minimize contact with other dogs and animals unless you give explicit instructions to do otherwise. For those dogs that require crating, I have a spacious crate available to ensure their comfort and security. Your pets will receive all the attention and care they need while feeling safe in their familiar environment!

“Our dog and house were in great shape when we returned. Emma was quick to communicate but only after our prompts. She sent no pictures. She had texted that she would send reports and pics at the end of each day. Didn’t happen. Kept us wondering…”

“Amalia was a fantastic sitter! She stayed at our house for a night and did a wonderful job of taking care of Orzo. Amalia was very responsive, gave us periodic updates (with photos!) on how our dog was doing, and took very good care of him. I would highly recommend Amalia for dog/house sitting, drop in visits, or walks! We will definitely be booking her again whenever we are in need of a sitter or walker.”


“Whitney is awesome! I was traveling internationally when my other sitter had a family emergency and had to cancel. Whitney responded to my frantic request immediately even though it was only the night before I needed help and was able to save the day! She took Denali for a nice long hike and sent super cute photos. I appreciate you so much Whitney thank you!”
