“Angela is so great with our sweet dog! Remi took an immediate liking to Angela and that says alot!! My husband and I feel very comfortable leaving Remi with her! She's greatl!! ❤️”

“Gina did such a great job taking care of the place and making sure I had regular updates and photos throughout my trip. It meant a lot to have that peace of mind. She is truly an animal lover and I am so glad I found her! Definitely would recommend. Excellent job!”

“Victoria was wonderful to work with. She took great care of my dogs and house while I was on vacation. She communicated often, sent pictures and fulfilled the needs of my dogs. She’s warm and lovely and I plan on using her again in the future.”

“I was a very nervous first time puppy mom and Blake was great at giving updates and keep my mind at ease! Would highly recommend as she communicates, takes care of the pup, and my apartment. Thanks again!”

About: As a fur mom myself, I treat other pets as if they were my own. I have two dogs and a cat. Two of them are seniors and I've had them since they were young. I believe in training basic commands, positive enforcement, and lots of snuggles. When I'm not pet sitting, I'm hanging out with my pups outside while they get their zoomies out. I'm comfortable with excited pups, counter surfers, and shy pups. We all have our quirks! I take care of our 3 pets (2 dogs, 1 cats) and their care is my top priority on my day to day. Feeding, training, and getting the zoomies out. I like to keep the dogs routine as much as possible. Some dogs can get anxious when someone new is introduced and I find it's best to keep things as simple and normal as possible.
About: I’ve cared for pets and livestock my entire life, and animals have always been a huge part of my daily life. What sets me apart is that I live on spacious property, giving dogs plenty of room to explore, play, and enjoy a calm environment while they’re away from home. I treat every animal like my own and strive to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable during their stay. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine because caring for animals has always been part of my lifestyle. Living on property means I’m consistently outside and active, so dogs get plenty of attention, exercise, potty breaks, and playtime throughout the day — not just scheduled walks. I’m used to maintaining routines for both pets and livestock, so feeding schedules, medications, supervision, and individual care needs are something I take seriously. I enjoy creating a calm, safe environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. When caring for pets in my home, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and low-stress environment where they can feel relaxed and part of the family. Because I live on property, dogs have space to play, explore, and get exercise throughout the day while still being closely supervised. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medications, and any special instructions from the owner. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to keep their pets comfortable by maintaining their usual routine and environment. I provide dependable care, attention, exercise, feeding, fresh water, cleanup, and lots of affection while also respecting the client’s home and instructions. I understand how important consistency is for animals, and I work to make their time away from their owners as stress-free as possible.
“Alex went above and beyond on his first overnight with our cat TK. After an initial meeting, he asked questions to be sure he understood our cat and our house. On his visit he sent oodles of photos, our 9-yr-old TK looking completely relaxed and having fun. We returned to a happy, calm and collected cat and our house perfectly taken care of. We've already booked Alex for 2 more chunks of time later this month. Responsive, understanding, conscientious. Oh--and he's so upbeat. So glad to have him in our TK family now.”


“I cannot recommend Ashley enough! I have two very high-energy dogs who require a lot of attention and exercise, and she handled them with such patience, care, and love. From the moment I met her, it was clear she truly understands dogs and enjoys spending time with them. She kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. When I got home, the dogs were happy, tired, and clearly well-loved. It’s not easy to find someone who can keep up with their energy, but she did it effortlessly! If you’re looking for someone reliable, caring, and absolutely amazing with dogs, look no further—we feel so lucky to have found her!”

“Thank you Ronald! Ronald housesat for a long weekend for our 2 big pups & I received several photo updates and check ins. We had a tiny situation resulting in a trip to the emergency vet and Ronald was calm, communicative, helpful, and went out of his way to make sure our dog was take care of. I highly recommend his services and am so thankful that he was so attentive!!”

“Thank you Darla for doing such an awesome job with Evie, Boo and PJ! Even though Evie is still in mourning over the passing of Rudolph Valentino Jones, you took great care of her and she ate food for you, bonus round since she hasn't eaten a lot in the last week or so. Thank you for taking excellent care of them and my beautiful home.”

About: I am a person who cares! And I care most when it comes to your pets. My pets are my life and I understand that they are family. As an uber driver, I have a very open schedule and the ability to make frequent stops to check in with babies throughout my day! I would come equipped with a first aid kit and all safety materials. I would assure I had participated in any and all safety trainings available.
“Dorothy is the best! The moment Dorothy walked in the door, she demonstrated a calm and professionalism that was comforting to us. Having someone in our home that is unknown to us is very uncomfortable. We never felt uncomfortable with Dorothy. Dorothy treated our peta with respect and was attentive to their needs. Dorothy is also a very respectful visitor, cleaning after herself and treating our home like her own. Dorothy also sent great pictures of the fur babies during her stay. We will be repeat customers. Thank you Dorothy!”

“Rosemary was wonderful! She was very kind, and affectionate towards my dog. She spent a few days with her, and I could tell my Bella was happy and well taken care of when I returned. Very trustworthy and friendly!!!”

“Peter was very attentive to our Rhodesian Ridgeback, Hijo. It was very clear that he made Hijo his priority and Hijo was so comfortable with him that Peter got to see some of his antics usually reserved for folks he knows well. We felt very confident Peter had everything under control while we stepped away. Jen”

“Tyler and Sam were great! They took great care of our dog, were respectful of our home, and were very communicative. When we got home our dog was a happy boy and our house was spotless. Would be happy to book them again!”

“It was our first time having Mia watch our two Siberian Huskies. One can be very stand-offish and Mia understood her personality. She sent texts with pix of our happy dogs. She was a pleasure to meet and the dogs did great with a new person in the house! I will definitely use Mia again.”

About: Working with animals brings great joy to my heart, feeling very intuitively attuned to their needs and wants. Also taking good care of the owner. Currently I have quite an open schedule to care, walk,sit or to board pets. 2-4 days a week I volunteer at a couple of animal sanctuaries with a flexible schedule depending on things. Pets would be given the utmost care and attention here at my home or at the owners. I am comfortable with pets on couch and even to snuggle in bed with me too. Your pet would be cared for as if it were my very own, with lots of love.
“Erik was both proactive and responsive, and most importantly, he loved and took great care of our dog and house. He handled things independently, but was also a great communicator. We can’t wait to invite him back!”

“Kat was amazing with our pup and so respectful of our home! She is organized, professional and super caring. It made our weekend away super easy knowing our house and dog were well taken care of. Thank you, Kat!!”
