1. Jorden A.

“Jordan was incredible and gave us complete comfort during our time away from our fur baby. She sent pictures often to let us see how happy and content he was. When we got home he was all brushed and looked and felt amazing. We will definitely request Jordan again to take care of him again when we are away.”


2. Destinee K.

“Excellent service and trustworthy”


3. Colin P.

“Colin took care of my rescue pup, Annie, a black lab mix with special needs, for an extended stay after a previous sitter had to cancel at the last minute. You could tell right off what a pet lover he was. He asked many good questions at the meet and greet, was punctual and handled Annie’s energy well on a leash. Colin sent me pictures and multiple daily updates on how she was doing. Giving her daily meds, tennis ball play times and long walks to help with her anxiety were part of a daily routine. I came home to a tired and happy pup. I would highly recommend Colin to anyone needing pet sitting services! Jain & Annie”

“Kellee was amazing! She walked my dog wicked far and took care of him for hours. She was kind and responsible and really well prepared. She's wonderful with dogs and is overall really kind.”


9. Julisa M.

“Julisa was wonderful - she stayed in frequent contact, sent pictures and, when our rascal of a dog breached the fence and ran off, she immediately got on the phone with me and we tracked him down at a neighbor’s house. I know what a terrible feeling that is when watching someone else’s furry babies and Julisa handled it so well.”


10. Maryah M.
“Maryah has been our pet sitter for a few years and I would highly recommend her. I have a 12 y.o. dog with Addison's disease that needs special care, a cat, a goat and chickens. When we travel, we know they are all in excellent hands. I have known Maryah for over 15 yrs. She is a kind, responsible young woman. She is someone very trustworthy and does a great job.”

About: Having spent my entire around dogs and now a proud dog mom to a 3 year old Australian Shepherd named Willow, I am well acquainted with the responsibility of pet ownership. I can offer security for families and dog parents when traveling away from home. I offer home boarding with a large back yard for play and doggy adventures. As an active person who loves being outside with an active dog partner I provide exercise for your doggy friend while your away. I can supplement daily cares of caring for a pet including basic grooming and medication suspension if necessary. Not afraid of large breed dogs or those with anxiety I welcome dogs of all sizes and temperaments into my life. When we travel we should travel with confidence knowing our furry friends are well taken care of, let me help you travel with confidence.




18. Melissa M.

“Misty watched over our lab, Lexie, for a weekend and was absolutely wonderful! Lexie is 14 years old and required lots of special attention, including oral medication and twice daily insulin injections. It was hard to be out of town leaving behind our special girl, but Misty set our minds at ease and treated Lexie as her own. She also watched over our 2 cats. Misty sent several text and photo updates, which were very reassuring. We will not hesitate to have Misty "dog-sit" again!”

About: Listen, I don't want to brag or anything, but when it comes to dog-walking, I'm basically a canine whisperer. I mean, I don't speak Dog fluently (yet), but I'm pretty sure I'm picking up some of their telepathic signals. Plus, I know how to cater to each dog's unique personality, energy level, and preferences. Whether that means running, walking, or just lounging in the grass. So if you want to give your furry baby the ultimate tail-wagging, butt-sniffing dog-walking service ever.. then look no further! I’ve been a dog lover from a very young age- having taken care of my own beloved dog, Isia for 5 years. I am deeply passionate about dogs and their welfare, and I am committed to ensuring that every dog in my care receives the love, attention, and exercise they need to thrive. When it comes to pet care, I’m all in. I’m fully available every Saturday and Sunday. Like who needs weekdays anyway? Weekends are where the real fun happens. You can rest easy knowing your pet is in good hands (or paws… whatever the case may be). When caring for pets in my client's home, I take great care to ensure that I am providing the same level of love and attention that they would receive from their owners. This includes taking dogs for regular walks, providing feeding and water, administering medication if needed, and spending quality time playing and bonding with each pet. I also make sure to follow any specific instructions provided by the owner, such as feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any special needs that the pet may have. I am diligent about keeping the home clean and tidy, and always make sure to leave it in the same condition as when I arrived. Additionally, I am committed to keeping my clients updated on their pet's well-being while they are away, whether it's through regular communication or photo updates. My goal is to provide a peace of mind to pet owners- knowing that their furry friends are in good hands and receiving the highest level of care possible.
