1. Abigail Jean S.

“Abigail went above and beyond to care for our unique situation. Having to keep pets separated, special feeding requirements and medications, even catching a family of mice I inadvertently brought in the house the morning we were to leave. She’s also very kindly been checking up on our elderly dog after our trip who needed ER care totally unrelated to her stay. We appreciate everything so much and hope she will be available the next time we need to travel.”


2. Beth M.

“Beth is trustworthy. And that’s important. I often go out of town for four days to a week to 10 days and it’s important to trust my two dogs and my home to someone.

She is now my “preferred sitter“”


3. Melissa G.

“Melissa is amazing! She cared for my two boys in my home for four days and 5 stars just isn’t enough ! My boys both had had surgery right before Melissa cared for them and she gave meds and checked incision site for me. She sent photos daily and gave updates so I wouldn’t worry. I was able to enjoy family time away and know my two boys were safe and well cared for. Thank you Melissa”

7. Danielle C.

“I can't say enough goodness about Danielle's service. There was a moment when Echo did suddenly get aggressive while she tried harnessing hime to walk. She guided him to the back yard and stepped away for the rest of that day, only to return and discover him himself. She's that good. Had no problems there after and I appreciate her disposition with Echo. She managed him and my home excellently leaving my home clean as it was when she began. She's earned my trust and can I confidently say that she can manage taking care of your pet and your home also. Hands Down”

9. Gary M.

“Great job. Dogs and house were well cared for. Gary kept in touch and sent pics.”


10. Rowan M.

“Our dog, Revna has some issues socializing with strangers, as she is a very overprotective dog. My wife and I were very nervous to find a responsible sitter who has experience dealing with difficult dogs. Upon meeting Rowan and Isaiah, our anxiety disappeared, because they knew exactly how to calm my dog and gain her trust. We left on a 6-day trip and after a couple of days being with my dog and cats, Rowan and Isaiah had fully gained their trust and took excellent care of them. Not only did they take professional care of our pets, they went above and beyond in following our feeding schedule, medication requirements, and house guidelines. They sent us photos and updates throughout our trip and were quick to communicate any questions or concerns. Upon arriving home from our trip, we found our home in perfect condition, very clean, and exactly how we left it. We couldn't ask for anything more in professional, reliable, and caring sitters and we highly recommend this team to anyone seeking top care for their pets.”


11. Juliette C.

“Juliette is a gem. She took great care of Bailey and our home. She is personable, friendly and accommodating. We will definitely reach out to her if we need someone to watch Bailey again!”

13. Nanette M.
About: I’ve cared for a variety of animals since I was little and grew a lifelong love for giving animals the best life they can have, I started training pets and exotic animals (Birds, Fish etc.) in 2011 and I have been studying pet health and diets since 2013. I work from home so I can spend all my time with your furry companion. Near my home there are also are multiple parks and nature paths and even a pet safe pool! My home is puppy and cat proofed and there are no pets in the home, but upon request of approved recommendation my family has a cat, one medium and one small dog fully trained to help with desensitization or just to keep your furry baby company.


14. Syanne P.
“Syanne has extensive experience taking care of both dogs and cats. She recently watched our cats (and house) while we were away for 5 weeks. The cats adore her! She is mature, responsible and takes care to follow instructions and keep the house up. She even watered our plants! I would highly recommend her for watching your pets and/or house. -Laurie”


15. Daniel F.

“Daniel helped us on two parts of a recent long trip with caring for our two young, big dogs and our home! I can't even begin to praise this person enough for how delicate and caring he was with our babies and home-and so communicative with sweet updates and photos! I have never left my babies with as much confidence they would be okay when I got back and they were!!-Thank you, Daniel!”


16. Roberta C.
About: I have experience with all animals - farm animals, aquatic animals, dogs, cats, feral animals too. I love goats and miss my farm. I can't have animals of my own at this time and just looking for a rewarding side hustle. I find healing in the presence of animals. I'm currently available seven days a weeks - flexible and reliable. I recently have been laid off from my regular employer. I am looking for an easygoing rewarding solution. Animals could provide so much more to me than an income. Especially at this time in my life. Transition is hard but Im determined. I ensure safety and routine for your pet. I will do everything I can to ensure they are well cared for and safe in your environment or mine.


17. Glenda H.
“Glenda is an amazing, caring person, that will go out of her way to make sure that everyone around her is ok. I have witnessed Glenda devoting her life to her family and friends, by being there when they need a helping hand! I would highly recommend Glenda to any pet parent, as Glenda has been a pet parent herself, who has extended her love and time to treat her pet as family; she has been surrounded by pets her whole life, and has developed the knowledge to know what it takes to care for our furry friends/family!”

19. Alexandra W.
About: Allow me to love your pet as if it were my own! I have been a pet sitter for over ten years now and I have watched anything from cats, dogs, hamsters, fish, birds, ferrets, snakes to chickens and then some. I have also worked as professional dog walker for an extended period of time. I have experience with overnights. I have experience with drop in visits. I have experience with senior animals, medicine administration and round the clock care. I have volunteered in a professional vet facility and took four years of pre vet tech classes through out my high school career. My house is no longer pet free and I am unfortunately not able to host any new fuzzy friends. Thanks for stopping by and I cannot wait to meet you! I'm regularly available Wednesday thru Saturday and open to making exceptions if your needs fall outside my scheduled availability. We can work it all out! I always set up initial meet and greets to ensure we'll be a great fit. Additionally, I provide quick, respectful and open communication from start to finish.
